It's still not completely right; we need to split it into anon unions
of __wsum and unsigned - for cases when we use it for partial checksum
and for offset of checksum in skb

nfmark is being used in various subsystems and has become
the defacto mark field for all kinds of packets. Therefore
it makes sense to rename it to `mark' and remove the
dependency on CONFIG_NETFILTER.

Replace CHECKSUM_HW by CHECKSUM_PARTIAL (for outgoing packets, whose
checksum still needs to be completed) and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (for
incoming packets, device supplied full checksum).
Patch originally from Herbert Xu, updated by myself for 2.6.18-rc3.

The IPv4/IPv6 datagram output path was using skb_trim to trim paged
packets because they know that the packet has not been cloned yet
(since the packet hasn't been given to anything else in the system).
This broke because skb_trim no longer allows paged packets to be
trimmed. Paged packets must be given to one of the pskb_trim functions
instead.
This patch adds a new pskb_trim_unique function to cover the IPv4/IPv6
datagram output path scenario and replaces the corresponding skb_trim
calls with it.

The skb_queue_head_init() function is used both in drivers for private use
and in the core networking code. The usage models are vastly set of
functions that is only softirq safe; while the driver usage tends to be
more limited to a few hardirq safe accessor functions. Rather than
annotating all 133+ driver usages, for now just split this lock into a per
queue class. This change is obviously safe and probably should make
2.6.18.

Add a dev_alloc_skb variant that takes a struct net_device * paramater.
For now that paramater is unused, but I'll use it to allocate the skb
from node-local memory in a follow-up patch. Also there have been some
other plans mentioned on the list that can use it.

skbuff.h has an #ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_DEV_ALLOC_SKB to allow
architectures to reimplement __dev_alloc_skb. It's not set on any
architecture and now that we have an architecture-overrideable
NET_SKB_PAD there is not point at all to have one either.

This patch adds the wrapper function skb_is_gso which can be used instead
of directly testing skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size. This makes things a little
nicer and allows us to change the primary key for indicating whether an skb
is GSO (if we ever want to do that).

This patch adds GSO support for IPv6 and TCPv6. This is based on a patch
by Ananda Raju <Ananda.Raju@neterion.com>. His original description is:
This patch enables TSO over IPv6. Currently Linux network stacks
restricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from
"dev->features". This patch will remove this restriction.
This patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used
to check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO
over IPv6 then we don't clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the
TCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6
will set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in "dev->features" along with NETIF_F_TSO.
In case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get
cleared from "dev->features". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don't
get TSO packets created by TCP layer.
SKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet.
SKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature.
UFO is supported over IPv6 also
The following table shows there is significant improvement in
throughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo.

| | 1500 | 9600 |
| ------------------|-------------------|
| | thru CPU | thru CPU |

In the current TSO implementation, NETIF_F_TSO and ECN cannot be
turned on together in a TCP connection. The problem is that most
hardware that supports TSO does not handle CWR correctly if it is set
in the TSO packet. Correct handling requires CWR to be set in the
first packet only if it is set in the TSO header.
This patch adds the ability to turn on NETIF_F_TSO and ECN using
GSO if necessary to handle TSO packets with CWR set. Hardware
that handles CWR correctly can turn on NETIF_F_TSO_ECN in the dev->
features flag.
All TSO packets with CWR set will have the SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN set. If
the output device does not have the NETIF_F_TSO_ECN feature set, GSO
will split the packet up correctly with CWR only set in the first
segment.
With help from Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>.
Since ECN can always be enabled with TSO, the SOCK_NO_LARGESEND sock
flag is completely removed.
