Today we have a hardcoded delay of 1 sec before a TIME-WAIT socket can be
reused by reopening a connection. This is a safe choice based on an
assumption that the other TCP timestamp clock frequency, which is unknown
to us, may be as low as 1 Hz (RFC 7323, section 5.4).
However, this means that in the presence of short lived connections with an
RTT of couple of milliseconds, the time during which a 4-tuple is blocked
from reuse can be orders of magnitude longer that the connection lifetime.
Combined with a reduced pool of ephemeral ports, when using
IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE to share an egress IP address between hosts [1], the
long TIME-WAIT reuse delay can lead to port exhaustion, where all available
4-tuples are tied up in TIME-WAIT state.
Turn the reuse delay into a per-netns setting so that sysadmins can make
more aggressive assumptions about remote TCP timestamp clock frequency and
shorten the delay in order to allow connections to reincarnate faster.
Note that applications can completely bypass the TIME-WAIT delay protection
already today by locking the local port with bind() before connecting. Such
immediate connection reuse may result in PAWS failing to detect old
duplicate segments, leaving us with just the sequence number check as a
safety net.
This new configurable offers a trade off where the sysadmin can balance
between the risk of PAWS detection failing to act versus exhausting ports
by having sockets tied up in TIME-WAIT state for too long.

Each IPv4 address could have a lifetime, which is useful for DHCP,
and GC is periodically executed as check_lifetime_work.
check_lifetime() does the actual GC under RTNL.
1. Acquire RTNL
2. Iterate inet_addr_lst
3. Remove IPv4 address if expired
4. Release RTNL
Namespacifying the GC is required for per-netns RTNL, but using the
per-netns hash table will shorten the time on the hash bucket iteration
under RTNL.
Let's add per-netns GC work and use the per-netns hash table.

As a prep for per-netns RTNL conversion, we want to namespacify
the IPv4 address hash table and the GC work.
Let's allocate the per-netns IPv4 address hash table to
net->ipv4.inet_addr_lst and link IPv4 addresses into it.
The actual users will be converted later.
Note that the IPv6 address hash table is already namespacified.

1) Support sending NAT keepalives in ESP in UDP states.
Userspace IKE daemon had to do this before, but the
kernel can better keep track of it.
From Eyal Birger.
2) Support IPsec crypto offload for IPv6 ESP and IPv4 UDP-encapsulated
ESP data paths. Currently, IPsec crypto offload is enabled for GRO
code path only. This patchset support UDP encapsulation for the non
GRO path. From Mike Yu.

Add the ability to send out RFC-3948 NAT keepalives from the xfrm stack.
To use, Userspace sets an XFRM_NAT_KEEPALIVE_INTERVAL integer property when
creating XFRM outbound states which denotes the number of seconds between
keepalive messages.
Keepalive messages are sent from a per net delayed work which iterates over
the xfrm states. The logic is guarded by the xfrm state spinlock due to the
xfrm state walk iterator.
Possible future enhancements:
- Adding counters to keep track of sent keepalives.
- deduplicate NAT keepalives between states sharing the same nat keepalive
parameters.
- provisioning hardware offloads for devices capable of implementing this.
- revise xfrm state list to use an rcu list in order to avoid running this
under spinlock.

When calculating hashes for the purpose of multipath forwarding, both IPv4
and IPv6 code currently fall back on flow_hash_from_keys(). That uses a
randomly-generated seed. That's a fine choice by default, but unfortunately
some deployments may need a tighter control over the seed used.
In this patch, make the seed configurable by adding a new sysctl key,
net.ipv4.fib_multipath_hash_seed to control the seed. This seed is used
specifically for multipath forwarding and not for the other concerns that
flow_hash_from_keys() is used for, such as queue selection. Expose the knob
as sysctl because other such settings, such as headers to hash, are also
handled that way. Like those, the multipath hash seed is a per-netns
variable.
Despite being placed in the net.ipv4 namespace, the multipath seed sysctl
is used for both IPv4 and IPv6, similarly to e.g. a number of TCP
variables.
The seed used by flow_hash_from_keys() is a 128-bit quantity. However it
seems that usually the seed is a much more modest value. 32 bits seem
typical (Cisco, Cumulus), some systems go even lower. For that reason, and
to decouple the user interface from implementation details, go with a
32-bit quantity, which is then quadruplicated to form the siphash key.

coded 200ms default rto_min.
Note that the rto_min route option has the highest precedence
for configuring this setting, followed by the TCP_BPF_RTO_MIN

Commit 227b60f510 added a seqlock to ensure that the low and high
port numbers were always updated together.
This is overkill because the two 16bit port numbers can be held in
a u32 and read/written in a single instruction.
More recently 91d0b78c51 added support for finer per-socket limits.
The user-supplied value is 'high << 16 | low' but they are held
separately and the socket options protected by the socket lock.
Use a u32 containing 'high << 16 | low' for both the 'net' and 'sk'
fields and use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to ensure both values are
always updated together.
Change (the now trival) inet_get_local_port_range() to a static inline
to optimise the calling code.
(In particular avoiding returning integers by reference.)
