a881e963c7 set fake_rtable's dst to NULL to avoid kernel Oops
bridge: set fake_rtable's dst to NULL to avoid kernel Oops

when bridge is deleted before tap/vif device's delete, kernel may
encounter an oops because of NULL reference to fake_rtable's dst.
Set fake_rtable's dst to NULL before sending packets out can solve
this problem.

v4 reformat, change br_drop_fake_rtable(skb) to {}

v3 enrich commit header

v2 introducing new flag DST_FAKE_RTABLE to dst_entry struct.

[ Use "do { } while (0)" for nop br_drop_fake_rtable()
  implementation -DaveM ]

f24001941c Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Fix merge between commit 3adadc08cc ("net ax25: Reorder ax25_exit to
remove races") and commit 0ca7a4c87d ("net ax25: Simplify and
cleanup the ax25 sysctl handling")

The former moved around the sysctl register/unregister calls, the
later simply removed them.

With help from Stephen Rothwell.

f545a38f74 net: add a limit parameter to sk_add_backlog()
sk_add_backlog() & sk_rcvqueues_full() hard coded sk_rcvbuf as the
memory limit. We need to make this limit a parameter for TCP use.

No functional change expected in this patch, all callers still using the
old sk_rcvbuf limit.

900f65d361 tcp: move duplicate code from tcp_v4_init_sock()/tcp_v6_init_sock()
This commit moves the (substantial) common code shared between
tcp_v4_init_sock() and tcp_v6_init_sock() to a new address-family
independent function, tcp_init_sock().

Centralizing this functionality should help avoid drift issues,
e.g. where the IPv4 side is updated without a corresponding update to
IPv6. There was already some drift: IPv4 initialized snd_cwnd to
TCP_INIT_CWND, while the IPv6 side was still initializing snd_cwnd to
2 (in this case it should not matter, since snd_cwnd is also
initialized in tcp_init_metrics(), but the general risks and
maintenance overhead remain).

When diffing the old and new code, note that new tcp_init_sock()
function uses the order of steps from the tcp_v4_init_sock()
implementation (the order is slightly different in
tcp_v6_init_sock()).

ee9952831c tcp: Initial repair mode
This includes (according the the previous description):

* TCP_REPAIR sockoption

This one just puts the socket in/out of the repair mode.
Allowed for CAP_NET_ADMIN and for closed/establised sockets only.
When repair mode is turned off and the socket happens to be in
the established state the window probe is sent to the peer to
'unlock' the connection.

* TCP_REPAIR_QUEUE sockoption

This one sets the queue which we're about to repair. The
'no-queue' is set by default.

* TCP_QUEUE_SEQ socoption

Sets the write_seq/rcv_nxt of a selected repaired queue.
Allowed for TCP_CLOSE-d sockets only. When the socket changes
its state the other seq-s are changed by the kernel according
to the protocol rules (most of the existing code is actually
reused).

* Ability to forcibly bind a socket to a port

The sk->sk_reuse is set to SK_FORCE_REUSE.

* Immediate connect modification

The connect syscall initializes the connection, then directly jumps
to the code which finalizes it.

* Silent close modification

The close just aborts the connection (similar to SO_LINGER with 0
time) but without sending any FIN/RST-s to peer.

0ca7a4c87d net ax25: Simplify and cleanup the ax25 sysctl handling.
Don't register/unregister every ax25 table in a batch.  Instead register
and unregister per device ax25 sysctls as ax25 devices come and go.

This moves ax25 to be a completely modern sysctl user.  Registering the
sysctls in just the initial network namespace, removing the use of
.child entries that are no longer natively supported by the sysctl core
and taking advantage of the fact that there are no longer any ordering
constraints between registering and unregistering different sysctl
tables.

4e5ca78541 net ipv4: Remove the unneeded registration of an empty net/ipv4/neigh
sysctl no longer requires explicit creation of directories.  The neigh
directory is always populated with at least a default entry so this
won't cause any user visible changes.

Delete the ipv4_path and the ipv4_skeleton these are no longer needed.

Directly register the ipv4_route_table.

And since I am an idiot remove the header definitions that I should
have removed in the previous patch.

4344475797 net: Kill register_sysctl_rotable
register_sysctl_rotable never caught on as an interesting way to
register sysctls.  My take on the situation is that what we want are
sysctls that we can only see in the initial network namespace.  What we
have implemented with register_sysctl_rotable are sysctls that we can
see in all of the network namespaces and can only change in the initial
network namespace.

That is a very silly way to go.  Just register the network sysctls
in the initial network namespace and we don't have any weird special
cases to deal with.

The sysctls affected are:
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_max_dist
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/mld_max_msf

I really don't expect anyone will miss them if they can't read them in a
child user namespace.

2ca794e5e8 net sysctl: Initialize the network sysctls sooner to avoid problems.
If the netfilter code is modified to use register_net_sysctl_table the
kernel fails to boot because the per net sysctl infrasturce is not setup
soon enough.  So to avoid races call net_sysctl_init from sock_init().

ab41a2ca50 net: Implement register_net_sysctl.
Right now all of the networking sysctl registrations are running in a
compatibiity mode.  The natvie sysctl registration api takes a cstring
for a path and a simple ctl_table.  Implement register_net_sysctl so
that we can register network sysctls without needing to use
compatiblity code in the sysctl core.

Switching from a ctl_path to a cstring results in less boiler plate
and denser code that is a little easier to read.

I would simply have changed the arguments to register_net_sysctl_table
instead of keeping two functions in parallel but gcc will allow a
ctl_path pointer to be passed to a char * pointer with only issuing a
warning resulting in completely incorrect code can be built.  Since I
have to change the function name I am taking advantage of the situation
to let both register_net_sysctl and register_net_sysctl_table live for a
short time in parallel which makes clean conversion patches a bit easier
to read and write.

cda31e10ba ipv6: clean up rt6_clean_expires
Functionally, this change is a NOP.

Semantically, rt6_clean_expires() wants to do rt->dst.from = NULL instead of
rt->dst.expires = 0. It is clearing the RTF_EXPIRES flag, so the union is going
to be treated as a pointer (dst.from) not a long (dst.expires).

edfb5d4687 ipv6: fix rt6_update_expires
Commit 1716a961 (ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cache) broke PMTU
discovery. rt6_update_expires() calls dst_set_expires(), which only updates
dst->expires if it has not been set previously (expires == 0) or if the new
expires is earlier than the current dst->expires.

rt6_update_expires() needs to zero rt->dst.expires, otherwise it will contain
ivalid data left over from rt->dst.from and will confuse dst_set_expires().
