bbd86b9fc4 [NETFILTER]: add /proc/net/netfilter interface to nf_queue
This patch adds a /proc/net/netfilter/nf_queue file, similar to the
recently-added /proc/net/netfilter/nf_log.  It indicates which queue
handler is registered to which protocol family.  This is useful since
there are now multiple queue handlers in the treee (ip[6]_queue,
nfnetlink_queue).

210a9ebef2 [NETFILTER]: ip{6}_queue: prevent unregistration race with nfnetlink_queue
Since nfnetlink_queue can override ip{6}_queue as queue handlers, we
can no longer blindly unregister whoever is registered for PF_INET[6],
but only unregister ourselves.

This also moved inet_iif from tcp to inet_hashtables.h, as it is

463c84b97f [NET]: Introduce inet_connection_sock
This creates struct inet_connection_sock, moving members out of struct
tcp_sock that are shareable with other INET connection oriented
protocols, such as DCCP, that in my private tree already uses most of
these members.

The functions that operate on these members were renamed, using a
inet_csk_ prefix while not being moved yet to a new file, so as to
ease the review of these changes.

8feaf0c0a5 [INET]: Generalise tcp_tw_bucket, aka TIME_WAIT sockets
This paves the way to generalise the rest of the sock ID lookup
routines and saves some bytes in TCPv4 TIME_WAIT sockets on distro
kernels (where IPv6 is always built as a module):

[root@qemu ~]# grep tw_sock /proc/slabinfo
tw_sock_TCPv6  0  0  128  31  1
tw_sock_TCP    0  0   96  41  1
[root@qemu ~]#

Now if a protocol wants to use the TIME_WAIT generic infrastructure it
only has to set the sk_prot->twsk_obj_size field with the size of its
inet_timewait_sock derived sock and proto_register will create
sk_prot->twsk_slab, for now its only for INET sockets, but we can
introduce timewait_sock later if some non INET transport protocolo
wants to use this stuff.

Next changesets will take advantage of this new infrastructure to
generalise even more TCP code.

[acme@toy net-2.6.14]$ grep built-in /tmp/before.size /tmp/after.size
/tmp/before.size: 188646   11764    5068  205478   322a6 net/ipv4/built-in.o

a55ebcc4c4 [INET]: Move bind_hash from tcp_sk to inet_sk
This should really be in a inet_connection_sock, but I'm leaving it
for a later optimization, when some more fields common to INET
transport protocols now in tcp_sk or inet_sk will be chunked out into
inet_connection_sock, for now its better to concentrate on getting the
changes in the core merged to leave the DCCP tree with only DCCP
specific code.

Next changesets will take advantage of this move to generalise things
like tcp_bind_hash, tcp_put_port, tcp_inherit_port, making the later
receive a inet_hashinfo parameter, and even __tcp_tw_hashdance, etc in
the future, when tcp_tw_bucket gets transformed into the struct
timewait_sock hierarchy.

tcp_destroy_sock also is eligible as soon as tcp_orphan_count gets
moved to sk_prot.

A cascade of incremental changes will ultimately make the tcp_lookup
functions be fully generic.

0f7ff9274e [INET]: Just rename the TCP hashtable functions/structs to inet_
This is to break down the complexity of the series of patches,
making it very clear that this one just does:

1. renames tcp_ prefixed hashtable functions and data structures that
   were already mostly generic to inet_ to share it with DCCP and
   other INET transport protocols.

2. Removes not used functions (__tb_head & tb_head)

3. Removes some leftover prototypes in the headers (tcp_bucket_unlock &
   tcp_v4_build_header)

Next changesets will move tcp_sk(sk)->bind_hash to inet_sock so that we can
make functions such as tcp_inherit_port, __tcp_inherit_port, tcp_v4_get_port,
__tcp_put_port,  generic and get others like tcp_destroy_sock closer to generic
(tcp_orphan_count will go to sk->sk_prot to allow this).

Eventually most of these functions will be used passing the transport protocol
inet_hashinfo structure.

608c8e4f7b [NETFILTER]: Extend netfilter logging API
This patch is in preparation to nfnetlink_log:
- loggers now have to register struct nf_logger instead of nf_logfn
- nf_log_unregister() replaced by nf_log_unregister_pf() and
  nf_log_unregister_logger()
- add comment to ip[6]t_LOG.h to assure nobody redefines flags
- add /proc/net/netfilter/nf_log to tell user which logger is currently
  registered for which address family
- if user has configured logging, but no logging backend (logger) is
  available, always spit a message to syslog, not just the first time.
- split ip[6]t_LOG.c into two parts:
  Backend: Always try to register as logger for the respective address family
  Frontend: Always log via nf_log_packet() API
- modify all users of nf_log_packet() to accomodate additional argument

6869c4d8e0 [NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargement
As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff.
The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller.  I did some basic
testing on my notebook and it seems to work.

The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a
single bit.  Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in
sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for
them.  Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space.

Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and
alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code
overloads pkt_type :(

The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just
came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe
to remove it.

- remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code
- don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own
  compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field.  IPVS maintainers can
  decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die.
- remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes
- move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes

c1b4a7e695 [TCP]: Move to new TSO segmenting scheme.
Make TSO segment transmit size decisions at send time not earlier.

The basic scheme is that we try to build as large a TSO frame as
possible when pulling in the user data, but the size of the TSO frame
output to the card is determined at transmit time.

This is guided by tp->xmit_size_goal.  It is always set to a multiple
of MSS and tells sendmsg/sendpage how large an SKB to try and build.

Later, tcp_write_xmit() and tcp_push_one() chop up the packet if
necessary and conditions warrant.  These routines can also decide to
"defer" in order to wait for more ACKs to arrive and thus allow larger
TSO frames to be emitted.

A general observation is that TSO elongates the pipe, thus requiring a
larger congestion window and larger buffering especially at the sender
side.  Therefore, it is important that applications 1) get a large
enough socket send buffer (this is accomplished by our dynamic send
buffer expansion code) 2) do large enough writes.

317a76f9a4 [TCP]: Add pluggable congestion control algorithm infrastructure.
Allow TCP to have multiple pluggable congestion control algorithms.
Algorithms are defined by a set of operations and can be built in
or modules.  The legacy "new RENO" algorithm is used as a starting
point and fallback.

543537bd92 [PATCH] create a kstrdup library function
This patch creates a new kstrdup library function and changes the "local"
implementations in several places to use this function.

Most of the changes come from the sound and net subsystems.  The sound part
had already been acknowledged by Takashi Iwai and the net part by David S.
Miller.

I left UML alone for now because I would need more time to read the code
carefully before making changes there.
