4250846146 [NEIGH]: Make /proc/net/arp opening consistent with seq_net_open semantics
seq_open_net requires that first field of the seq->private data to be
struct seq_net_private. In reality this is a single pointer to a
struct net for now. The patch makes code consistent.

5fd30ee7c4 [NETNS]: Namespacing in the generic fib rules code.
Move static rules_ops & rules_mod_lock to the struct net, register the
pernet subsys to init them and enjoy the fact that the core rules
infrastructure works in the namespace.

Real IPv4 fib rules virtualization requires fib tables support in the
namespace and will be done seriously later in the patchset.

f8c26b8d58 [NETNS]: Add netns parameter to fib_rules_(un)register.
The patch extends the different fib rules API in order to pass the
network namespace pointer. That will allow to access the different
tables from a namespace relative object. As usual, the pointer to the
init_net variable is passed as parameter so we don't break the
network.

65f7651788 [NET]: prot_inuse cleanups and optimizations
1) Cleanups (all functions are prefixed by sock_prot_inuse)

sock_prot_inc_use(prot) -> sock_prot_inuse_add(prot,-1)
sock_prot_dec_use(prot) -> sock_prot_inuse_add(prot,-1)
sock_prot_inuse()       -> sock_prot_inuse_get()

New functions :

sock_prot_inuse_init() and sock_prot_inuse_free() to abstract pcounter use.

2) if CONFIG_PROC_FS=n, we can zap 'inuse' member from "struct proto",
since nobody wants to read the inuse value.

This saves 1372 bytes on i386/SMP and some cpu cycles.

3ab224be6d [NET] CORE: Introducing new memory accounting interface.
This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network
protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions
for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting
functions are removed since other functions do same thing.

Renaming:
	sk_stream_free_skb()		->	sk_wmem_free_skb()
	__sk_stream_mem_reclaim()	->	__sk_mem_reclaim()
	sk_stream_mem_reclaim()		->	sk_mem_reclaim()
	sk_stream_mem_schedule 		->    	__sk_mem_schedule()
	sk_stream_pages()      		->	sk_mem_pages()
	sk_stream_rmem_schedule()	->	sk_rmem_schedule()
	sk_stream_wmem_schedule()	->	sk_wmem_schedule()
	sk_charge_skb()			->	sk_mem_charge()

Removeing
	sk_stream_rfree():	consolidates into sock_rfree()
	sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r()
	sk_stream_mem_schedule()

The following functions are added.
    	sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting
	sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge()

In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is
removed from sk_mem_charge().

Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds
memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present
memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call.

Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface
in TCP and SCTP.

7ffc49a6ee [ETH]: Combine format_addr() with print_mac().
print_mac() used many most net drivers and format_addr() used by

format_addr() is also identically redefined in the qla4xxx iscsi

Export a new function sysfs_format_mac() to be used by net-sysfs,
qla4xxx and others in the future.  Both print_mac() and
sysfs_format_mac() call _format_mac_addr() to do the formatting.

Changed print_mac() to use unsigned char * to be consistent with
net_device struct's dev_addr.  Added buffer length overrun checking

426b5303eb [NETNS]: Modify the neighbour table code so it handles multiple network namespaces
I'm actually surprised at how much was involved.  At first glance it
appears that the neighbour table data structures are already split by
network device so all that should be needed is to modify the user
interface commands to filter the set of neighbours by the network
namespace of their devices.

However a couple things turned up while I was reading through the
code.  The proxy neighbour table allows entries with no network
device, and the neighbour parms are per network device (except for the
defaults) so they now need a per network namespace default.

So I updated the two structures (which surprised me) with their very
own network namespace parameter.  Updated the relevant lookup and
destroy routines with a network namespace parameter and modified the
code that interacts with users to filter out neighbour table entries
for devices of other namespaces.

I'm a little concerned that we can modify and display the global table
configuration and from all network namespaces.  But this appears good
enough for now.

I keep thinking modifying the neighbour table to have per network
namespace instances of each table type would should be cleaner.  The
hash table is already dynamically sized so there are it is not a
limiter.  The default parameter would be straight forward to take care
of.  However when I look at the how the network table is built and
used I still find some assumptions that there is only a single
neighbour table for each type of table in the kernel.  The netlink
operations, neigh_seq_start, the non-core network users that call
neigh_lookup.  So while it might be doable it would require more
refactoring than my current approach of just doing a little extra
filtering in the code.

a43d8994b9 [NEIGH]: Make neigh_add_timer symmetrical to neigh_del_timer.
The neigh_del_timer() looks sane - it removes the timer and
(conditionally) puts the neighbor. I expected, that the
neigh_add_timer() is symmetrical to the del one - i.e. it
holds the neighbor and arms the timer - but it turned out
that it was not so.

I think, that making them look symmetrical makes the code
more readable.

Some of ctl variables are going to be on the struct

Since some pointers still point on the global variables,
I keep turning the write bits off on such tables.

024626e36d [NET] sysctl: make the sys.net.core sysctls per-namespace
Making them per-namespace is required for the following
two reasons:

 First, some ctl values have a per-namespace meaning.
 Second, making them writable from the sub-namespace
 is an isolation hole.

So I introduce the pernet operations to create these
tables. For init_net I use the existing statically
declared tables, for sub-namespace they are duplicated
and the write bits are removed from the mode.

a59322be07 [UDP]: Only increment counter on first peek/recv
The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused each
peek of the same packet to be counted separately.  This may be
undesirable.

This patch fixes this by adding a bit to sk_buff to record whether
this packet has already been seen through skb_recv_datagram.  We
then only increment the counter when the packet is seen for the
first time.

The only dodgy part is the fact that skb_recv_datagram doesn't have
a good way of returning this new bit of information.  So I've added
a new function __skb_recv_datagram that does return this and made
skb_recv_datagram a wrapper around it.

The plan is to eventually replace all uses of skb_recv_datagram with
this new function at which time it can be renamed its proper name.

c3bac5a71b [NEIGH]: Use the ctl paths to create neighbours sysctls
The appropriate path is prepared right inside this function. It
is prepared similar to how the ctl tables were.

Since the path is modified, it is put on the stack, to avoid
possible races with multiple calls to neigh_sysctl_register() : it
is called by protocols and I didn't find any protection in this
case. Did I overlooked the rtnl lock?.

The stack growth of the neigh_sysctl_register() is 40 bytes. I
believe this is OK, since this is not that much and this function
is not called with the deep stack (device/protocols register).

The device's name is stored on the template to free it later.

This will help with the net namespaces, as each namespace should
have its own set of these ctls.

Besides, this saves ~350 bytes from the neigh template :)

4b3da706bb [NET]: Make the netlink methods in rtnetlink handle multiple network namespaces
After the previous prep work this just consists of removing checks
limiting the code to work in the initial network namespace, and
updating rtmsg_ifinfo so we can generate events for devices in
something other then the initial network namespace.

Referring to network other network devices like the IFLA_LINK
and IFLA_MASTER attributes do, gets interesting if those network
devices happen to be in other network namespaces.  Currently
ifindex numbers are allocated globally so I have taken the path
of least resistance and not still report the information even
though the devices they are talking about are invisible.

If applications start getting confused or when ifindex
numbers become local to the network namespace we may need
to do something different in the future.

97c53cacf0 [NET]: Make rtnetlink infrastructure network namespace aware (v3)
After this patch none of the netlink callback support anything
except the initial network namespace but the rtnetlink infrastructure
now handles multiple network namespaces.

Changes from v2:
- IPv6 addrlabel processing

Changes from v1:
- no need for special rtnl_unlock handling
- fixed IPv6 ndisc

b854272b3c [NET]: Modify all rtnetlink methods to only work in the initial namespace (v2)
Before I can enable rtnetlink to work in all network namespaces I need
to be certain that something won't break.  So this patch deliberately
disables all of the rtnletlink methods in everything except the
initial network namespace.  After the methods have been audited this
extra check can be disabled.

Changes from v1:
- added IPv6 addrlabel protection

c0ef877b2c [NET]: Move sock_valbool_flag to socket.c
The sock_valbool_flag() helper is used in setsockopt to
set or reset some flag on the sock. This helper is required
in the net/socket.c only, so move it there.

Besides, patch two places in sys_setsockopt() that repeat
this helper functionality manually.

Since this is not a bugfix, but a trivial cleanup, I
prepared this patch against net-2.6.25, but it also
applies (with a single offset) to the latest net-2.6.

352e512c32 [NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discard
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place
which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or
output paths.

This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the
users to it.

The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error.
However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions
used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors.  So they should
either all return errors or all return zero.  For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would
react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

b24b8a247f [NET]: Convert init_timer into setup_timer
Many-many code in the kernel initialized the timer->function
and  timer->data together with calling init_timer(timer). There
is already a helper for this. Use it for networking code.

The patch is HUGE, but makes the code 130 lines shorter
