It seems IPV6_GRO_CB(skb)->proto can be destroyed in skb_gro_receive()
if a new skb is allocated (to serve as an anchor for frag_list)
We copy NAPI_GRO_CB() only (not the IPV6 specific part) in :
*NAPI_GRO_CB(nskb) = *NAPI_GRO_CB(p);
So we leave IPV6_GRO_CB(nskb)->proto to 0 (fresh skb allocation) instead
of IPPROTO_TCP (6)
ipv6_gro_complete() isnt able to call ops->gro_complete()
[ tcp6_gro_complete() ]
Fix this by moving proto in NAPI_GRO_CB() and getting rid of
IPV6_GRO_CB

Current GRO can hold packets in gro_list for almost unlimited
time, in case napi->poll() handler consumes its budget over and over.
In this case, napi_complete()/napi_gro_flush() are not called.
Another problem is that gro_list is flushed in non friendly way :
We scan the list and complete packets in the reverse order.
(youngest packets first, oldest packets last)
This defeats priorities that sender could have cooked.
Since GRO currently only store TCP packets, we dont really notice the
bug because of retransmits, but this behavior can add unexpected
latencies, particularly on mice flows clamped by elephant flows.
This patch makes sure no packet can stay more than 1 ms in queue, and
only in stress situations.
It also complete packets in the right order to minimize latencies.

Before accessing skb first fragment, better make sure there
is one.
This is probably not needed for old kernels, since an ethernet frame
cannot contain only an ethernet header, but the recent GRO addition
to tunnels makes this patch needed.
Also skb_gro_reset_offset() can be static, it actually allows
compiler to inline it.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.
2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.
3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.
4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.
5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.
7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
Borkmann.
8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very
many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.
From Eric Dumazet.
10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are
a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
allocator c) less waste of space.
From Eric Dumazet.
11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.
12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
From Stephen Hemminger.
13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.
Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.

The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated
asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state
reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is
on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support
carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN.
For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the
carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the
device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a
unregistered device, and commit b473001 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch
events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But
this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier
detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN.
The same issue exists with the dormant state.
The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of
the device, is:
rtnl_lock();
rc = register_netdevice(dev);
if (rc)
goto out_unlock;
netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */
rtnl_unlock();
but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many
drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the
device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of
linkwatch.
Commit 22604c8 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted
to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was
reverted as it could lead to deadlock.
This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time
only.

I noticed extra one second delay in device dismantle, tracked down to
a call to dst_dev_event() while some call_rcu() are still in RCU queues.
These call_rcu() were posted by rt_free(struct rtable *rt) calls.
We then wait a little (but one second) in netdev_wait_allrefs() before
kicking again NETDEV_UNREGISTER.
As the call_rcu() are now completed, dst_dev_event() can do the needed
device swap on busy dst.
To solve this problem, add a new NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL, called
after a rcu_barrier(), but outside of RTNL lock.
Use NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL with care !
Change dst_dev_event() handler to react to NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL
Also remove NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH, as its not used anymore after
IP cache removal.

If a packet is emitted on one socket in one group of fanout sockets,
it is transmitted again. It is thus read again on one of the sockets
of the fanout group. This result in a loop for software which
generate packets when receiving one.
This retransmission is not the intended behavior: a fanout group
must behave like a single socket. The packet should not be
transmitted on a socket if it originates from a socket belonging
to the same fanout group.
This patch fixes the issue by changing the transmission check to
take fanout group info account.

A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little
as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps). Given that we have a
sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough,
it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection
to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once. This
results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments.
In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of
DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than
a full ring. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger
the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried
after the TX reset). This particularly affects sfc, for which the
issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.
Therefore:
1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific
limit.
2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then
mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.

I was about to reinvent the wheel when I noticed that
ip_dev_loopback_xmit() and ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() do exactly what I
need and are not IP-only functions, but they were not available to reuse
elsewhere.
ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() does not have line "skb_dst_force(skb);", but I
understand that this is harmless, and should be in dev_loopback_xmit().
