4cd57c8078 [SCTP]: Enable the sending of the AUTH chunk.
SCTP-AUTH, Section 6.2:

   Endpoints MUST send all requested chunks authenticated where this has
   been requested by the peer.  The other chunks MAY be sent
   authenticated or not.  If endpoint pair shared keys are used, one of
   them MUST be selected for authentication.

   To send chunks in an authenticated way, the sender MUST include these
   chunks after an AUTH chunk.  This means that a sender MUST bundle
   chunks in order to authenticate them.

   If the endpoint has no endpoint pair shared key for the peer, it MUST
   use Shared Key Identifier 0 with an empty endpoint pair shared key.
   If there are multiple endpoint shared keys the sender selects one and
   uses the corresponding Shared Key Identifier

730fc3d05c [SCTP]: Implete SCTP-AUTH parameter processing
Implement processing for the CHUNKS, RANDOM, and HMAC parameters and
deal with how this parameters are effected by association restarts.
In particular, during unexpeted INIT processing, we need to reply with
parameters from the original INIT chunk.  Also, after restart, we need
to update the old association with new peer parameters and change the
association shared keys.

96793b4825 [IPV4]: Add ICMPMsgStats MIB (RFC 4293)
Background: RFC 4293 deprecates existing individual, named ICMP
type counters to be replaced with the ICMPMsgStatsTable. This table
includes entries for both IPv4 and IPv6, and requires counting of all
ICMP types, whether or not the machine implements the type.

These patches "remove" (but not really) the existing counters, and
replace them with the ICMPMsgStats tables for v4 and v6.
It includes the named counters in the /proc places they were, but gets the
values for them from the new tables. It also counts packets generated
from raw socket output (e.g., OutEchoes, MLD queries, RA's from
radvd, etc).

Changes:
1) create icmpmsg_statistics mib
2) create icmpv6msg_statistics mib
3) modify existing counters to use these
4) modify /proc/net/snmp to add "IcmpMsg" with all ICMP types
        listed by number for easy SNMP parsing
5) modify /proc/net/snmp printing for "Icmp" to get the named data
        from new counters.

88d3aafdae [ETHTOOL] Provide default behaviors for a few ethtool sub-ioctls
For the operations
	get-tx-csum
	get-sg
	get-tso
	get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.

This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.

The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case.  Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a
later date.

d4e46a3d98 [MAC80211]: fix race conditions with keys
During receive processing, we select the key long before using it and
because there's no locking it is possible that we kfree() the key
after having selected it but before using it for crypto operations.
Obviously, this is bad.

Secondly, during transmit processing, there are two possible races: We
have a similar race between select_key() and using it for encryption,
but we also have a race here between select_key() and hardware
encryption (both when a key is removed.)

This patch solves these issues by using RCU: when a key is to be freed,
we first remove the pointer from the appropriate places (sdata->keys,
sdata->default_key, sta->key) using rcu_assign_pointer() and then
synchronize_rcu(). Then, we can safely kfree() the key and remove it
from the hardware. There's a window here where the hardware may still
be using it for decryption, but we can't work around that without having
two hardware callbacks, one to disable the key for RX and one to disable
it for TX; but the worst thing that will happen is that we receive a
packet decrypted that we don't find a key for any more and then drop it.

When we add a key, we first need to upload it to the hardware and then,
using rcu_assign_pointer() again, link it into our structures.

In the code using keys (TX/RX paths) we use rcu_dereference() to get the
key and enclose the whole tx/rx section in a rcu_read_lock() ...
rcu_read_unlock() block. Because we've uploaded the key to hardware
before linking it into internal structures, we can guarantee that it is
valid once get to into tx().

One possible race condition remains, however: when we have hardware
acceleration enabled and the driver shuts down the queues, we end up
queueing the frame. If now somebody removes the key, the key will be
removed from hwaccel and then then driver will be asked to encrypt the
frame with a key index that has been removed. Hence, drivers will need
to be aware that the hw_key_index they are passed might not be under
all circumstances. Most drivers will, however, simply ignore that
condition and encrypt the frame with the selected key anyway, this
only results in a frame being encrypted with a wrong key or dropped
(rightfully) because the key was not valid. There isn't much we can
do about it unless we want to walk the pending frame queue every time
a key is removed and remove all frames that used it.

This race condition, however, will most likely be solved once we add
multiqueue support to mac80211 because then frames will be queued
further up the stack instead of after being processed.

39c90ece75 [IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.
On loaded/big hosts, rt_check_expire() if of litle use, because it
generally breaks out of its main loop because of a jiffies change.

It can take a long time (read : timer invocations) to actually
scan the whole hash table, freeing unused entries.

Converting it to use a workqueue instead of softirq is a nice
move because we can allow rt_check_expire() to do the scan
it is supposed to do, without hogging the CPU.

This has an impact on the average number of entries in cache,
reducing ram usage. Cache is more responsive to parameter
changes (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_timeout and
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_interval)

Note: Maybe the default value of gc_interval (60 seconds)
is too high, since this means we actually need 5 (300/60)
invocations to scan the whole table.

234a0ca6f1 [RFKILL]: Remove IRDA
As Dmitry pointed out earlier, rfkill-input.c
doesn't support irda because there are no users
and we shouldn't add unrequired KEY_ defines.

However, RFKILL_TYPE_IRDA was defined in the
rfkill.h header file and would confuse people
about whether it is implemented or not.

This patch removes IRDA support completely,
so it can be added whenever a driver wants the
feature.

077130c0cf [NET]: Fix race when opening a proc file while a network namespace is exiting.
The problem:  proc_net files remember which network namespace the are
against but do not remember hold a reference count (as that would pin
the network namespace).   So we currently have a small window where
the reference count on a network namespace may be incremented when opening
a /proc file when it has already gone to zero.

To fix this introduce maybe_get_net and get_proc_net.

maybe_get_net increments the network namespace reference count only if it is
greater then zero, ensuring we don't increment a reference count after it
has gone to zero.

get_proc_net handles all of the magic to go from a proc inode to the network
namespace instance and call maybe_get_net on it.

PROC_NET the old accessor is removed so that we don't get confused and use
the wrong helper function.

Then I fix up the callers to use get_proc_net and handle the case case
where get_proc_net returns NULL.  In that case I return -ENXIO because
effectively the network namespace has already gone away so the files
we are trying to access don't exist anymore.

86bba269d0 [PATCH] NET : convert IP route cache garbage collection from softirq processing to a workqueue
When the periodic IP route cache flush is done (every 600 seconds on
default configuration), some hosts suffer a lot and eventually trigger
the "soft lockup" message.

dst_run_gc() is doing a scan of a possibly huge list of dst_entries,
eventually freeing some (less than 1%) of them, while holding the
dst_lock spinlock for the whole scan.

Then it rearms a timer to redo the full thing 1/10 s later...
The slowdown can last one minute or so, depending on how active are
the tcp sessions.

This second version of the patch converts the processing from a softirq
based one to a workqueue.

Even if the list of entries in garbage_list is huge, host is still
responsive to softirqs and can make progress.

Instead of resetting gc timer to 0.1 second if one entry was freed in a
gc run, we do this if more than 10% of entries were freed.

d8a5ec6727 [NET]: netlink support for moving devices between network namespaces.
The simplest thing to implement is moving network devices between
namespaces.  However with the same attribute IFLA_NET_NS_PID we can
easily implement creating devices in the destination network
namespace as well.  However that is a little bit trickier so this
patch sticks to what is simple and easy.

A pid is used to identify a process that happens to be a member
of the network namespace we want to move the network device to.
