1e8a287c79 dccp ccid-3: TFRC reverse-lookup Bug-Fix
This fixes a bug in the reverse lookup of p: given a value f(p), instead of p,
the function returned the smallest tabulated value f(p).

The smallest tabulated value of
	 
   10^6 * f(p) =  sqrt(2*p/3) + 12 * sqrt(3*p/8) * (32 * p^3 + p) 

for p=0.0001 is 8172. 

Since this value is scaled by 10^6, the outcome of this bug is that a loss
of 8172/10^6 = 0.8172% was reported whenever the input was below the table
resolution of 0.01%.

This means that the value was over 80 times too high, resulting in large spikes
of the initial loss interval, thus unnecessarily reducing the throughput.

Also corrected the printk format (%u for u32).

65907a433a dccp ccid-2: Bug-Fix - Ack Vectors need to be ignored on request sockets
This fixes an oversight from an earlier patch, ensuring that Ack Vectors
are not processed on request sockets.

The issue is that Ack Vectors must not be parsed on request sockets, since
the Ack Vector feature depends on the selection of the (TX) CCID. During the
initial handshake the CCIDs are undefined, and so RFC 4340, 10.3 applies:

 "Using CCID-specific options and feature options during a negotiation
  for the corresponding CCID feature is NOT RECOMMENDED [...]"

And it is not even possible: when the server receives the Request from the 
client, the CCID and Ack vector features are undefined; when the Ack finalising
the 3-way hanshake arrives, the request socket has not been cloned yet into a
full socket. (This order is necessary, since otherwise the newly created socket
would have to be destroyed whenever an option error occurred - a malicious
hacker could simply send garbage options and exploit this.)

1e2f0e5e83 dccp: Fix sparse warnings
This patch fixes the following sparse warnings:
 * nested min(max()) expression:
   net/dccp/ccids/ccid3.c:91:21: warning: symbol '__x' shadows an earlier one
   net/dccp/ccids/ccid3.c:91:21: warning: symbol '__y' shadows an earlier one
   
 * Declaration of function prototypes in .c instead of .h file, resulting in
   "should it be static?" warnings. 

 * Declared "struct dccpw" static (local to dccp_probe).
 
 * Disabled dccp_delayed_ack() - not fully removed due to RFC 4340, 11.3
   ("Receivers SHOULD implement delayed acknowledgement timers ...").

 * Used a different local variable name to avoid
   net/dccp/ackvec.c:293:13: warning: symbol 'state' shadows an earlier one
   net/dccp/ackvec.c:238:33: originally declared here

 * Removed unused functions `dccp_ackvector_print' and `dccp_ackvec_print'.

3294f202dc dccp ccid-3: Bug-Fix - Zero RTT is possible
In commit $(825de27d9e) (from 27th May, commit
message `dccp ccid-3: Fix "t_ipi explosion" bug'), the CCID-3 window counter
computation was fixed to cope with RTTs < 4 microseconds.

Such RTTs can be found e.g. when running CCID-3 over loopback. The fix removed
a check against RTT < 4, but introduced a divide-by-zero bug.

All steady-state RTTs in DCCP are filtered using dccp_sample_rtt(), which
ensures non-zero samples. However, a zero RTT is possible on initialisation,
when there is no RTT sample from the Request/Response exchange.

The fix is to use the fallback-RTT from RFC 4340, 3.4.

This is also better than just fixing update_win_count() since it allows other
parts of the code to always assume that the RTT is non-zero during the time
that the CCID is used.

709772e6e0 net: Fix routing tables with id > 255 for legacy software
Most legacy software do not like tables > 255 as rtm_table is u8
so tb_id is sent &0xff and it is possible to mismatch for example
table 510 with table 254 (main).

This patch introduces RT_TABLE_COMPAT=252 so the code uses it if
tb_id > 255. It makes such old applications happy, new
ones are still able to use RTA_TABLE to get a proper table id.

363f15149c virtio: use callback on empty in virtio_net
virtio_net uses a timer to free old transmitted packets, rather than
leaving callbacks enabled all the time.  If the host promises to
always notify us when the transmit ring is empty, we can free packets
at that point and avoid the timer.

14c998f034 virtio: virtio_net free transmit skbs in a timer
virtio_net currently only frees old transmit skbs just
before queueing new ones. If the queue is full, it then
enables interrupts and waits for notification that more
work has been performed.

However, a side-effect of this scheme is that there are
always xmit skbs left dangling when no new packets are
sent, against the Documentation/networking/driver.txt
guideline:

  "... it is not allowed for your TX mitigation scheme
   to let TX packets "hang out" in the TX ring unreclaimed
   forever if no new TX packets are sent."

Add a timer to ensure that any time we queue new TX
skbs, we will shortly free them again.

This fixes an easily reproduced hang at shutdown where
iptables attempts to unload nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack
waits for an skb it is tracking to be freed, but virtio_net
never frees it.

23cde76d80 virtio_net: Fix skb->csum_start computation
hdr->csum_start is the offset from the start of the ethernet
header to the transport layer checksum field. skb->csum_start
is the offset from skb->head.

skb_partial_csum_set() assumes that skb->data points to the
ethernet header - i.e. it computes skb->csum_start by adding
the headroom to hdr->csum_start.

Since eth_type_trans() skb_pull()s the ethernet header,
skb_partial_csum_set() should be called before
eth_type_trans().

(Without this patch, GSO packets from a guest to the world outside the
host are corrupted).
