f3f668b0ef Bluetooth: Use miliseconds for L2CAP channel timeouts
Timers set by __set_chan_timer() should use miliseconds instead of
jiffies. Commit 942ecc9c4643db5ce071562e0a23f99464d6b461 updated
l2cap_set_timer() so it expects timeout to be specified in msecs
instead of jiffies. This makes timeouts unreliable when CONFIG_HZ
is not set to 1000.

4b6cc7284d netlink: clarify attribute length check documentation
The documentation for how the length of attributes
is checked is wrong ("Exact length" isn't true, the
policy checks are for "minimum length") and a bit
misleading. Make it more complete and explain what
really happens.

73cb88ecb9 net: make the tcp and udp file_operations for the /proc stuff const
the tcp and udp code creates a set of struct file_operations at runtime
while it can also be done at compile time, with the added benefit of then
having these file operations be const.

the trickiest part was to get the "THIS_MODULE" reference right; the naive
method of declaring a struct in the place of registration would not work
for this reason.

8d83f63b19 netfilter: export NAT definitions through linux/netfilter_ipv4/nf_nat.h
This patch exports several definitions that used to live under
include/net/netfilter/nf_nat.h. These definitions, although not
exported, have been used by iptables and other userspace
applications like miniupnpd since long time. Basically, these
userspace tools included some internal definition of the required
structures and they assume no changes in the binary representation
(which is OK indeed).

To resolve this situation, this patch makes public the required
structure and install them in INSTALL_HDR_PATH.

See: https://bugs.gentoo.org/376873, for more information.

This patch is heavily based on the initial patch sent by:

Anthony G. Basile <blueness@gentoo.org>

Which was entitled:

commit 66b13d99d96a (ipv4: tcp: fix TOS value in ACK messages sent from
TIME_WAIT) fixed IPv4 only.

This part is for the IPv6 side, adding a tclass param to ip6_xmit()

We alias tw_tclass and tw_tos, if socket family is INET6.

[ if sockets is ipv4-mapped, only IP_TOS socket option is used to fill
TOS field, TCLASS is not taken into account ]

66b13d99d9 ipv4: tcp: fix TOS value in ACK messages sent from TIME_WAIT
There is a long standing bug in linux tcp stack, about ACK messages sent
on behalf of TIME_WAIT sockets.

In the IP header of the ACK message, we choose to reflect TOS field of
incoming message, and this might break some setups.

Example of things that were broken :
  - Routing using TOS as a selector
  - Firewalls
  - Trafic classification / shaping

We now remember in timewait structure the inet tos field and use it in
ACK generation, and route lookup.

Notes :
 - We still reflect incoming TOS in RST messages.
 - We could extend MuraliRaja Muniraju patch to report TOS value in
netlink messages for TIME_WAIT sockets.
 - A patch is needed for IPv6

cf533ea53e tcp: add const qualifiers where possible
Adding const qualifiers to pointers can ease code review, and spot some

temporary null value...

f36c23bb9f udplite: fast-path computation of checksum coverage
Commit 903ab86d195cca295379699299c5fc10beba31c7 of 1 March this year ("udp: Add
lockless transmit path") introduced a new fast TX path that broke the checksum
coverage computation of UDP-lite, which so far depended on up->len (only set
if the socket is locked and 0 in the fast path).

Fixed by providing both fast- and slow-path computation of checksum coverage.
The latter can be removed when UDP(-lite)v6 also uses a lockless transmit path.

ae1d48b23d IPVS netns shutdown/startup dead-lock
ip_vs_mutext is used by both netns shutdown code and startup
and both implicit uses sk_lock-AF_INET mutex.

cleanup CPU-1         startup CPU-2
ip_vs_dst_event()     ip_vs_genl_set_cmd()
 sk_lock-AF_INET     __ip_vs_mutex
                     sk_lock-AF_INET
__ip_vs_mutex
* DEAD LOCK *

A new mutex placed in ip_vs netns struct called sync_mutex is added.

Comments from Julian and Simon added.
This patch has been running for more than 3 month now and it seems to work.

Ver. 3
    IP_VS_SO_GET_DAEMON in do_ip_vs_get_ctl protected by sync_mutex
    instead of __ip_vs_mutex as sugested by Julian.

73b9f03a81 mac80211: parse radiotap header earlier
We can now move the radiotap header parsing into
ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit(). This moves it out of
the hotpath, and also helps the code since now the
radiotap header will no longer be present in
ieee80211_xmit() etc. which is easier to understand.

a26eb27ab4 mac80211: move fragment flag to info flag as dont-fragment
The purpose of this is two-fold:
 1) by moving it out of tx_data.flags, we can in
    another patch move the radiotap parsing so it
    no longer is in the hotpath
 2) if a device implements fragmentation but can
    optionally skip it, the radiotap request for
    not doing fragmentation may be honoured

e290ed8130 dcb: Use ifindex instead of ifname
Use ifindex instead of ifname in the DCB app ring. This makes for a smaller
data structure and faster comparisons. It also avoids possible issues when
a net device is renamed.

b6f35301ef mac80211: Send nullfunc frames at lower rate during connection monitor
Recently mac80211 was changed to use nullfunc instead of probe
request for connection monitoring for tx ack status reporting
hardwares. Sometimes in congested network, STA got disconnected
quickly after the association. It was observered that the rate
control was not adopted to environment due to minimal transmission.

As the nullfunc are used for monitoring purpose, these frames should
not be sacrificed for rate control updation. So it is better to send
the monitoring null func frames at minimum rate that could help to
retain the connection.
