Jamal Hadi Salim 2f1eb65f36 xfrm: Flushing empty SPD generates false events
To see the effect make sure you have an empty SPD.
On window1 "ip xfrm mon" and on window2 issue "ip xfrm policy flush"
You get prompt back in window2 and you see the flush event on window1.
With this fix, you still get prompt on window1 but no event on window2.

Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding a bug in earlier version
when using pfkey to do the flushing.

Jamal Hadi Salim 8be987d734 pfkey: fix SA and SP flush sequence
RFC 2367 says flushing behavior should be:
1) user space -> kernel: flush
2) kernel: flush
3) kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners

This is not realistic today in the presence of selinux policies
which may reject the flush etc. So we make the sequence become:
1) user space -> kernel: flush
2) kernel: flush
3) kernel -> user space: flush response to originater from #1
4) if there were no errors then:
kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners

Eric Dumazet 64507fdbc2 netfilter: nf_queue: fix NF_STOLEN skb leak
commit 3bc38712e3 (handle NF_STOP and unknown verdicts in
nf_reinject) was a partial fix to packet leaks.

If user asks NF_STOLEN status, we must free the skb as well.

Pablo Neira Ayuso a88e22adf5 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix creation of conntrack with helpers
This patch fixes a bug that triggers an assertion if you create
a conntrack entry with a helper and netfilter debugging is enabled.
Basically, we hit the assertion because the confirmation flag is
set before the conntrack extensions are added. To fix this, we
move the extension addition before the aforementioned flag is
set.

This patch also removes the possibility of setting a helper for
existing conntracks. This operation would also trigger the
assertion since we are not allowed to add new extensions for
existing conntracks. We know noone that could benefit from
this operation sanely.

Thanks to Eric Dumazet for initial posting a preliminary patch
to address this issue.

Patrick McHardy 4bac6b1807 netfilter: restore POST_ROUTING hook in NF_HOOK_COND
Commit 2249065 ("netfilter: get rid of the grossness in netfilter.h")
inverted the logic for conditional hook invocation, breaking the
POST_ROUTING hook invoked by ip_output().

Correct the logic and remove an unnecessary initialization.

Chrissie Caulfield f546444d0b Orphan DECnet
Due to lack of time, space, motivation, hardware and probably expertise,
I have reluctantly decided to orphan the DECnet code in the kernel.

Judging by the deafening silence on the linux-decnet mailing list I
suspect it's either not being used anyway, or the few people that are
using it are happy with their older kernels.

Andreas Petlund 7e38017557 net: TCP thin dupack
This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for
TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce
latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast
retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin.

Andreas Petlund 36e31b0af5 net: TCP thin linear timeouts
This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the
stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies
that thin stream suffer because of exponential backoff. This
mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol
and the stream is identified as thin. A maximum of 6 linear
timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.
