f10ecaee6d dccp: Replace magic CCID-specific numbers by symbolic constants
The constants DCCPO_{MIN,MAX}_CCID_SPECIFIC are nowhere used in the code, but
instead for the CCID-specific options numbers are used.

This patch unifies the use of CCID-specific option numbers, by adding symbolic
names reflecting the definitions in RFC 4340, 10.3.

0a4822679d dccp: Initialisation and type-checking of feature sysctls
This patch takes care of initialising and type-checking sysctls related to
feature negotiation. Type checking is important since some of the sysctls
now directly act on the feature-negotiation process.

The sysctls are initialised with the known default values for each feature.
For the type-checking the value constraints from RFC 4340 are used:

 * Sequence Window uses the specified Wmin=32, the maximum is ulong (4 bytes),
   tested and confirmed that it works up to 4294967295 - for Gbps speed;
 * Ack Ratio is between 0 .. 0xffff (2-byte unsigned integer);
 * CCIDs are between 0 .. 255;
 * request_retries, retries1, retries2 also between 0..255 for good measure;
 * tx_qlen is checked to be non-negative;
 * sync_ratelimit remains as before.

Further changes:
----------------
Performed s@sysctl_dccp_feat@sysctl_dccp@g since the sysctls are now in feat.c.

51c7d4fa26 dccp: Implement both feature-local and feature-remote Sequence Window feature
This adds full support for local/remote Sequence Window feature, from which the 
  * sequence-number-validity (W) and 
  * acknowledgment-number-validity (W') windows 
derive as specified in RFC 4340, 7.5.3. 

Specifically, the following changes are introduced:
  * integrated new socket fields into dccp_sk;
  * updated the update_gsr/gss routines with regard to these fields;
  * updated handler code: the Sequence Window feature is located at the TX side,
    so the local feature is meant if the handler-rx flag is false;
  * the initialisation of `rcv_wnd' in reqsk is removed, since
    - rcv_wnd is not used by the code anywhere;
    - sequence number checks are not done in the LISTEN state (cf. 7.5.3);
    - dccp_check_req checks the Ack number validity more rigorously;
  * the `struct dccp_minisock' became empty and is now removed.

Until the handshake completes with activating negotiated values, the local/remote
Sequence-Window values are undefined and thus can not reliably be estimated.
This issue is addressed in a separate patch.

5d3dac267a dccp: Initialisation framework for feature negotiation
This initialises feature negotiation from two tables, which are initialised
from sysctls. 

As a novel feature, specifics of the implementation (e.g. currently short

b235dc4abb dccp ccid-2: Phase out the use of boolean Ack Vector sysctl
This removes the use of the sysctl and the minisock variable for the Send Ack
Vector feature, which is now handled fully dynamically via feature negotiation;
i.e. when CCID2 is enabled, Ack Vectors are automatically enabled (as per
RFC 4341, 4.).

Using a sysctl in parallel to this implementation would open the door to
crashes, since much of the code relies on tests of the boolean minisock /
sysctl variable. Thus, this patch replaces all tests of type

	if (dccp_msk(sk)->dccpms_send_ack_vector)
		/* ... */
with
	if (dp->dccps_hc_rx_ackvec != NULL)
		/* ... */

The dccps_hc_rx_ackvec is allocated by the dccp_hdlr_ackvec() when feature
negotiation concluded that Ack Vectors are to be used on the half-connection.
Otherwise, it is NULL (due to dccp_init_sock/dccp_create_openreq_child),
so that the test is a valid one.

The activation handler for Ack Vectors is called as soon as the feature
negotiation has concluded at the
 * server when the Ack marking the transition RESPOND => OPEN arrives;
 * client after it has sent its ACK, marking the transition REQUEST => PARTOPEN.

Adding the sequence number of the Response packet to the Ack Vector has been 
removed, since
 (a) connection establishment implies that the Response has been received;
 (b) the CCIDs only look at packets received in the (PART)OPEN state, i.e.
     this entry will always be ignored;
 (c) it can not be used for anything useful - to detect loss for instance, only
     packets received after the loss can serve as pseudo-dupacks.

68e074bfce dccp: Remove manual influence on NDP Count feature
Updating the NDP count feature is handled automatically now:
 * for CCID-2 it is disabled, since the code does not use NDP counts;
 * for CCID-3 it is enabled, as NDP counts are used to determine loss lengths.

Allowing the user to change NDP values leads to unpredictable and failing
behaviour, since it is then possible to disable NDP counts even when they
are needed (e.g. in CCID-3).

This means that only those user settings are sensible that agree with the
values for Send NDP Count implied by the choice of CCID. But those settings
are already activated by the feature negotiation (CCID dependency tracking),
hence this form of support is redundant.

At startup the initialisation of the NDP count feature is with the default
value of 0, which is done implicitly by the zeroing-out of the socket when
it is allocated. If the choice of CCID or feature negotiation enables NDP
count, this will then be updated via the NDP activation handler.

78673e24df dccp: Remove obsolete parts of the old CCID interface
The TX/RX CCIDs of the minisock are now redundant: similar to the Ack Vector
case, their value equals initially that of the sysctl, but at the end of
feature negotiation may be something different.

The old interface removed by this patch thus has been replaced by the newer
interface to dynamically query the currently loaded CCIDs earlier in this
patch set.

Also removed the constructors for the TX CCID and the RX CCID, since the
switch rx/non-rx is done by the handler in minisocks.c (and the handler is
the only place in the code where CCIDs are loaded).

fade756f18 dccp: Set per-connection CCIDs via socket options
With this patch, TX/RX CCIDs can now be changed on a per-connection basis, which
overrides the defaults set by the global sysctl variables for TX/RX CCIDs.

To make full use of this facility, the remaining patches of this patch set are
needed, which track dependencies and activate negotiated feature values.

Note on the maximum number of CCIDs that can be registered:
-----------------------------------------------------------
The maximum number of CCIDs that can be registered on the socket is constrained
by the space in a Confirm/Change feature negotiation option. 

The space in these in turn depends on the size of header options as defined
in RFC 4340, 5.8. Since this is a recurring constant, it has been moved from
ackvec.h into linux/dccp.h, clarifying its purpose.

Relative to this size, the maximum number of CCID identifiers that can be 
present in a Confirm option (which always consumes 1 byte more than a Change
option, cf. 6.1) is 2 bytes less than the maximum TLV size: one for the
CCID-feature-type and one for the selected value.

17c30b40ed dccp: Deprecate Ack Ratio sysctl
This patch deprecates the Ack Ratio sysctl, since
 * Ack Ratio is entirely ignored by CCID-3 and CCID-4,
 * Ack Ratio currently doesn't work in CCID-2 (i.e. is always set to 1);
 * even if it would work in CCID-2, there is no point for a user to change it:
   - Ack Ratio is constrained by cwnd (RFC 4341, 6.1.2),
   - if Ack Ratio > cwnd, the system resorts to spurious RTO timeouts 
     (since waiting for Acks which will never arrive in this window),
   - cwnd is not a user-configurable value.	

The only reasonable place for Ack Ratio is to print it for debugging. It is
planned to do this later on, as part of e.g. dccp_probe.

With this patch Ack Ratio is now under full control of feature negotiation:
 * Ack Ratio is resolved as a dependency of the selected CCID;
 * if the chosen CCID supports it (i.e. CCID == CCID-2), Ack Ratio is set to
   the default of 2, following RFC 4340, 11.3 - "New connections start with Ack
   Ratio 2 for both endpoints";
 * what happens then is part of another patch set, since it concerns the 
   dynamic update of Ack Ratio while the connection is in full flight.

Thanks to Tomasz Grobelny for discussion leading up to this patch.

20f41eee82 dccp: Feature negotiation for minimum-checksum-coverage
This provides feature negotiation for server minimum checksum coverage
which so far has been missing.

Since sender/receiver coverage values range only from 0...15, their
type has also been reduced in size from u16 to u4.

Feature-negotiation options are now generated for both sender and receiver
coverage, i.e. when the peer has `forgotten' to enable partial coverage
then feature negotiation will automatically enable (negotiate) the partial
coverage value for this connection.

668144f7b4 dccp: Deprecate old setsockopt framework
The previous setsockopt interface, which passed socket options via struct 
dccp_so_feat, is complicated/difficult to use. Continuing to support it leads to
ugly code since the old approach did not distinguish between NN and SP values.

This patch removes the old setsockopt interface and replaces it with two new
functions to register NN/SP values for feature negotiation. These are 
essentially wrappers around the internal __feat_register functions, with 
checking added to avoid
 * wrong usage (type);
 * changing values while the connection is in progress.

71bb49596b dccp: Query supported CCIDs
This provides a data structure to record which CCIDs are locally supported
and three accessor functions:
 - a test function for internal use which is used to validate CCID requests
   made by the user;
 - a copy function so that the list can be used for feature-negotiation;   
 - documented getsockopt() support so that the user can query capabilities.

The data structure is a table which is filled in at compile-time with the
list of available CCIDs (which in turn depends on the Kconfig choices).

Using the copy function for cloning the list of supported CCIDs is useful for
feature negotiation, since the negotiation is now with the full list of available
CCIDs (e.g. {2, 3}) instead of the default value {2}. This means negotiation 
will not fail if the peer requests to use CCID3 instead of CCID2.

7c19a3d280 net: Unbreak userspace usage of linux/mroute.h
Nothing in linux/pim.h should be exported to userspace.

This should fix the XORP build failure reported by
Jose Calhariz, the debain package maintainer.

Nothing originally in linux/mroute.h was exported to userspace
ever, but some of this stuff started to be when it was moved into
this new linux/pim.h, and that was wrong.  If we didn't provide these
definitions for 10 years we can reasonably expect that applications
defined this stuff locally or used GLIBC headers providing the
protocol definitions.  And as such the only result of this can
be conflict and userland build breakage.

479db0bf40 mm: dirty page tracking race fix
There is a race with dirty page accounting where a page may not properly
be accounted for.

clear_page_dirty_for_io() calls page_mkclean; then TestClearPageDirty.

page_mkclean walks the rmaps for that page, and for each one it cleans and
write protects the pte if it was dirty.  It uses page_check_address to
find the pte.  That function has a shortcut to avoid the ptl if the pte is
not present.  Unfortunately, the pte can be switched to not-present then
back to present by other code while holding the page table lock -- this
should not be a signal for page_mkclean to ignore that pte, because it may
be dirty.

For example, powerpc64's set_pte_at will clear a previously present pte
before setting it to the desired value.  There may also be other code in
core mm or in arch which do similar things.

The consequence of the bug is loss of data integrity due to msync, and
loss of dirty page accounting accuracy.  XIP's __xip_unmap could easily
also be unreliable (depending on the exact XIP locking scheme), which can
lead to data corruption.

Fix this by having an option to always take ptl to check the pte in
page_check_address.

It's possible to retain this optimization for page_referenced and
try_to_unmap.
