ecdfbdabbe dccp: schedule an Ack when receiving timestamps
This schedules an Ack when receiving a timestamp, exploiting the
existing inet_csk_schedule_ack() function, saving one case in the
`dccp_ack_pending()' function.

d196c9a5d4 dccp: generalise data-loss condition
This patch generalises the task of determining data loss from RFC 4340, 7.7.1.

Let S_A, S_B be sequence numbers such that S_B is "after" S_A, and let
N_B be the NDP count of packet S_B. Then, using modulo-2^48 arithmetic,
 D = S_B - S_A - 1  is an upper bound of the number of lost data packets,
 D - N_B            is an approximation of the number of lost data packets
                    (there are cases where this is not exact).

The patch implements this as
 dccp_loss_count(S_A, S_B, N_B) := max(S_B - S_A - 1 - N_B, 0)

baf9e782e1 dccp: remove unused argument in CCID tx function
This removes the argument `more' from ccid_hc_tx_packet_sent, since it was
nowhere used in the entire code.

(Btw, this argument was not even used in the original KAME code where the
 function initially came from; compare the variable moreToSend in the
 freebsd61-dccp-kame-28.08.2006.patch kept by Emmanuel Lochin.)

93344af44c dccp: merge now-reduced connect_init() function
After moving the assignment of GAR/ISS from dccp_connect_init() to
dccp_transmit_skb(), the former function becomes very small, so that
a merger with dccp_connect() suggests itself.

0b53d4604a dccp: fix the adjustments to AWL and SWL
This fixes a problem and a potential loophole with regard to seqno/ackno
validity: currently the initial adjustments to AWL/SWL are only performed
once at the begin of the connection, during the handshake.

Since the Sequence Window feature is always greater than Wmin=32 (7.5.2),
it is however necessary to perform these adjustments at least for the first
W/W' (variables as per 7.5.1) packets in the lifetime of a connection.

This requirement is complicated by the fact that W/W' can change at any time
during the lifetime of a connection.

Therefore it is better to perform that safety check each time SWL/AWL are
updated, as implemented by the patch.

A second problem solved by this patch is that the remote/local Sequence Window
feature values (which set the bounds for AWL/SWL/SWH) are undefined until the
feature negotiation has completed.

During the initial handshake we have more stringent sequence number protection;
the changes added by this patch effect that {A,S}W{L,H} are within the correct
bounds at the instant that feature negotiation completes (since the SeqWin
feature activation handlers call dccp_update_gsr/gss()).

0ed8ddf404 neigh: Protect neigh->ha[] with a seqlock
Add a seqlock in struct neighbour to protect neigh->ha[], and avoid
dirtying neighbour in stress situation (many different flows / dsts)

Dirtying takes place because of read_lock(&n->lock) and n->used writes.

Switching to a seqlock, and writing n->used only on jiffies changes
permits less dirtying.

b00916b189 net: clear heap allocations for privileged ethtool actions
Several other ethtool functions leave heap uncleared (potentially) by
drivers. Some interfaces appear safe (eeprom, etc), in that the sizes
are well controlled. In some situations (e.g. unchecked error conditions),
the heap will remain unchanged in areas before copying back to userspace.
Note that these are less of an issue since these all require CAP_NET_ADMIN.

0aa7deadff NET: wimax, fix use after free
Stanse found that i2400m_rx frees skb, but still uses skb->len even
though it has skb_len defined. So use skb_len properly in the code.

And also define it unsinged int rather than size_t to solve
compilation warnings.

ec622ab072 ATM: iphase, remove sleep-inside-atomic
Stanse found that ia_init_one locks a spinlock and inside of that it
calls ia_start which calls:
* request_irq
* tx_init which does kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL)

Both of them can thus sleep and result in a deadlock. I don't see a
reason to have a per-device spinlock there which is used only there
and inited right before the lock location. So remove it completely.

34d101dd62 neigh: speedup neigh_hh_init()
When a new dst is used to send a frame, neigh_resolve_output() tries to
associate an struct hh_cache to this dst, calling neigh_hh_init() with
the neigh rwlock write locked.

Most of the time, hh_cache is already known and linked into neighbour,
so we find it and increment its refcount.

This patch changes the logic so that we call neigh_hh_init() with
neighbour lock read locked only, so that fast path can be run in
parallel by concurrent cpus.

This brings part of the speedup we got with commit c7d4426a98
(introduce DST_NOCACHE flag) for non cached dsts, even for cached ones,
removing one of the contention point that routers hit on multiqueue
enabled machines.

Further improvements would need to use a seqlock instead of an rwlock to
protect neigh->ha[], to not dirty neigh too often and remove two atomic
ops.

03c698c93f net/fec: carrier off initially to avoid root mount failure
with hardware slow in negotiation, the system did freeze
while trying to mount root on nfs at boot time.

the link state has not been initialised so network stack
tried to start transmission right away. this caused instant
retries, as the driver solely stated business upon link down,
rendering the system unusable.

notify carrier off initially to prevent transmission until
phylib will report link up.
