bee7ca9ec0 net: TCP_MSS_DEFAULT, TCP_MSS_DESIRED
Define two symbols needed in both kernel and user space.

Remove old (somewhat incorrect) kernel variant that wasn't used in
most cases.  Default should apply to both RMSS and SMSS (RFC2581).

Replace numeric constants with defined symbols.

Stand-alone patch, originally developed for TCPCT.

572a9d7b6f net: allow to propagate errors through ->ndo_hard_start_xmit()
Currently the ->ndo_hard_start_xmit() callbacks are only permitted to return
one of the NETDEV_TX codes. This prevents any kind of error propagation for
virtual devices, like queue congestion of the underlying device in case of
layered devices, or unreachability in case of tunnels.

This patches changes the NET_XMIT codes to avoid clashes with the NETDEV_TX
codes and changes the two callers of dev_hard_start_xmit() to expect either
errno codes, NET_XMIT codes or NETDEV_TX codes as return value.

In case of qdisc_restart(), all non NETDEV_TX codes are mapped to NETDEV_TX_OK
since no error propagation is possible when using qdiscs. In case of
dev_queue_xmit(), the error is propagated upwards.

37e8273cd3 usbnet: Set link down initially for drivers that update link state
Some usbnet drivers update link state while others do not due to
hardware limitations.  Add a flag to distinguish those that do, and
set the link down initially for their devices.

This is intended to fix this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/444043

This adds compat_ioctl support for SIOCWANDEV, which has
always been missing.

The definition of struct compat_ifreq was missing an
ifru_settings fields that is needed to support SIOCWANDEV,
so add that and clean up the whitespace damage in the
struct definition.

512615b6b8 udp: secondary hash on (local port, local address)
Extends udp_table to contain a secondary hash table.

socket anchor for this second hash is free, because UDP
doesnt use skc_bind_node : We define an union to hold
both skc_bind_node & a new hlist_nulls_node udp_portaddr_node

udp_lib_get_port() inserts sockets into second hash chain
(additional cost of one atomic op)

udp_lib_unhash() deletes socket from second hash chain
(additional cost of one atomic op)

Note : No spinlock lockdep annotation is needed, because
lock for the secondary hash chain is always get after
lock for primary hash chain.

d4cada4ae1 udp: split sk_hash into two u16 hashes
Union sk_hash with two u16 hashes for udp (no extra memory taken)

One 16 bits hash on (local port) value (the previous udp 'hash')

One 16 bits hash on (local address, local port) values, initialized
but not yet used. This second hash is using jenkin hash for better
distribution.

Because the 'port' is xored later, a partial hash is performed
on local address + net_hash_mix(net)

3f378b6844 net: pass kern to net_proto_family create function
The generic __sock_create function has a kern argument which allows the
security system to make decisions based on if a socket is being created by
the kernel or by userspace.  This patch passes that flag to the
net_proto_family specific create function, so it can do the same thing.

32e5a8d651 tg3 / broadcom: Add code to disable rxc refclk
The 5785 does not use the RXC reference clock.  Turning it off is
desirable as it saves power.

By default, the 50610 enables the RXC reference clock and the 50610M
disables it.  Presumably this is one of the reasons why the hardware
architect chose one over the other.

Adding a "rx reference clock disable" flag is not the ideal way to
describe the option, as it would force the MAC using a 50610M to set
the flag.  Ideally we want the flags to represent opt-in behavior that
deviates from hardware defaults.  Furthermore, the lack of a
"disable" flag implies that the requester wants the rx reference clock
enabled, which doesn't necessarily follow.

By presenting the option as a passive statement (rx reference clock
unused) rather than a command, I hope to convey an opt-in option to
disable the rx reference clock that falls back to hardware defaults if
not set.  A secondary benefit of this is that it keeps the
intelligence about phy defaults in the broadcom module where it belongs
and allows the broadcom module more latitude should a bug arise.
