d212f87b06 [NET]: IPV6 checksum offloading in network devices
The existing model for checksum offload does not correctly handle
devices that can offload IPV4 and IPV6 only. The NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag
implies device can do any arbitrary protocol.

This patch:
 * adds NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM for those devices
 * fixes bnx2 and tg3 devices that need it
 * add NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM to ipv6 output (incl GSO)
 * fixes assumptions about NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM in nat
 * adjusts bridge union of checksumming computation

d3d6dd3ada [XFRM]: Add module alias for transformation type.
It is clean-up for XFRM type modules and adds aliases with its
protocol:
 ESP, AH, IPCOMP, IPIP and IPv6 for IPsec
 ROUTING and DSTOPTS for MIPv6

It is almost the same thing as XFRM mode alias, but it is added
new defines XFRM_PROTO_XXX for preprocessing since some protocols
are defined as enum.

59fbb3a61e [IPV6] MIP6: Loadable module support for MIPv6.
This patch makes MIPv6 loadable module named "mip6".

Here is a modprobe.conf(5) example to load it automatically
when user application uses XFRM state for MIPv6:

alias xfrm-type-10-43 mip6
alias xfrm-type-10-60 mip6

Some MIPv6 feature is not included by this modular, however,
it should not be affected to other features like either IPsec
or IPv6 with and without the patch.
We may discuss XFRM, MH (RAW socket) and ancillary data/sockopt
separately for future work.

Loadable features:
* MH receiving check (to send ICMP error back)
* RO header parsing and building (i.e. RH2 and HAO in DSTOPTS)
* XFRM policy/state database handling for RO

These are NOT covered as loadable:
* Home Address flags and its rule on source address selection
* XFRM sub policy (depends on its own kernel option)
* XFRM functions to receive RO as IPv6 extension header
* MH sending/receiving through raw socket if user application
  opens it (since raw socket allows to do so)
* RH2 sending as ancillary data
* RH2 operation with setsockopt(2)

c2edacf80e bonding / ipv6: no addrconf for slaves separately from master
At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is
active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed
then opened during the enslavement processing).  This causes DAD and RS
packets to be sent from the slave.  These packets in turn can confuse
switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update
their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve
backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the
active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be
dropped).

	This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on
the master device itself.  I believe this is logically correct, as it
prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the
master.  This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding.

	This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner
in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not
after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on
slave devices.

	The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag.  I inspected eql,
and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but
I did not test it.

74235a25c6 [IPV6] addrconf: Fix IPv6 on tuntap tunnels
The recent patch that added ipv6_hwtype is broken on tuntap tunnels.
Indeed, it's broken on any device that does not pass the ipv6_hwtype
test.

The reason is that the original test only applies to autoconfiguration,
not IPv6 support.  IPv6 support is allowed on any device.  In fact,
even with the ipv6_hwtype patch applied you can still add IPv6 addresses
to any interface that doesn't pass thw ipv6_hwtype test provided that
they have a sufficiently large MTU.  This is a serious problem because
come deregistration time these devices won't be cleaned up properly.

I've gone back and looked at the rationale for the patch.  It appears
that the real problem is that we were creating IPv6 devices even if the
MTU was too small.  So here's a patch which fixes that and reverts the
ipv6_hwtype stuff.

Thanks to Kanru Chen for reporting this issue.

3c158f7f57 [NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: fix helper module unload races
When a helper module is unloaded all conntracks refering to it have their
helper pointer NULLed out, leading to lots of races. In most places this
can be fixed by proper use of RCU (they do already check for != NULL,
but in a racy way), additionally nf_conntrack_expect_related needs to
bail out when no helper is present.

Also remove two paranoid BUG_ONs in nf_conntrack_proto_gre that are racy
and not worth fixing.

14e50e57ae [XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a
lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the
-EAGAIN buisness we had before.

Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route.  That
works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get
silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules.

We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because
they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the
sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in
libc.

With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from
Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state
resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default.

This lays the framework to either:

1) Make this default at some point or...

2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the
   ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of.
   The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then
   once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we
   re-resolve the route and push the packets out.  The
   packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved
   in a certain amount of time.

6313c1e099 [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks
Since we're now holding the rtnl during the entire dump operation, we can
remove additional locking for rtnl protected data. This patch does that
for all simple cases (dev_base_lock for dev_base walking, RCU protection
for FIB rule dumping).

af65bdfce9 [NETLINK]: Switch cb_lock spinlock to mutex and allow to override it
Switch cb_lock to mutex and allow netlink kernel users to override it
with a subsystem specific mutex for consistent locking in dump callbacks.
All netlink_dump_start users have been audited not to rely on any
side-effects of the previously used spinlock.
