Currently if the link is brought down via ip link or ifconfig down,
the inet6addr_chain notifiers are not called even though all
the addresses are removed from the interface. This caused SCTP
to add duplicate addresses to it's list.

The NET_CLS_ACT option is now a full replacement for NET_CLS_POLICE,

the equivalent NET_CLS_ACT options for a short time to allow easier

The behaviour of NET_CLS_POLICE for TC_POLICE_RECLASSIFY was to return
it to the qdisc, which could handle it internally or ignore it. With
NET_CLS_ACT however, tc_classify starts over at the first classifier
and never returns it to the qdisc. This makes it impossible to support
qdisc-internal reclassification, which in turn makes it impossible to
remove the old NET_CLS_POLICE code without breaking compatibility since
we have two qdiscs (CBQ and ATM) that support this.
This patch adds a tc_classify_compat function that handles
reclassification the old way and changes CBQ and ATM to use it.
This again is of course not fully backwards compatible with the previous
NET_CLS_ACT behaviour. Unfortunately there is no way to fully maintain
compatibility *and* support qdisc internal reclassification with
NET_CLS_ACT, but this seems like the better choice over keeping the two
incompatible options around forever.

Handle act_api classification results.
The ATM scheduler behaves slightly different than other schedulers
in that it only handles policer results for successful classifications,
this behaviour is retained for the act_api case.

From: Dmitry Butskoy <dmitry@butskoy.name>
Taken from http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8747
Problem Description:
It is related to the possibility to obtain MSG_ERRQUEUE messages from the udp
and raw sockets, both connected and unconnected.
There is a little typo in net/ipv6/icmp.c code, which prevents such messages
to be delivered to the errqueue of the correspond raw socket, when the socket
is CONNECTED. The typo is due to swap of local/remote addresses.
Consider __raw_v6_lookup() function from net/ipv6/raw.c. When a raw socket is
looked up usual way, it is something like:
sk = __raw_v6_lookup(sk, nexthdr, daddr, saddr, IP6CB(skb)->iif);
where "daddr" is a destination address of the incoming packet (IOW our local
address), "saddr" is a source address of the incoming packet (the remote end).
But when the raw socket is looked up for some icmp error report, in
net/ipv6/icmp.c:icmpv6_notify() , daddr/saddr are obtained from the echoed
fragment of the "bad" packet, i.e. "daddr" is the original destination
address of that packet, "saddr" is our local address. Hence, for
icmpv6_notify() must use "saddr, daddr" in its arguments, not "daddr, saddr"
...
Steps to reproduce:
Create some raw socket, connect it to an address, and cause some error
situation: f.e. set ttl=1 where the remote address is more than 1 hop to reach.
Set IPV6_RECVERR .
Then send something and wait for the error (f.e. poll() with POLLERR|POLLIN).
You should receive "time exceeded" icmp message (because of "ttl=1"), but the
socket do not receive it.
If you do not connect your raw socket, you will receive MSG_ERRQUEUE
successfully. (The reason is that for unconnected socket there are no actual
checks for local/remote addresses).

Back in the times of Linux 2.2, negative values for the creat parameter
of __neigh_lookup() had a particular meaning, but no longer, so we
should pass 1 instead.

As noticed by Ranko Zivojnovic <ranko@spidernet.net>, calling qdisc_run
from the timer handler can result in deadlock:
> CPU#0
>
> qdisc_watchdog() fires and gets dev->queue_lock
> qdisc_run()...qdisc_restart()...
> -> releases dev->queue_lock and enters dev_hard_start_xmit()
>
> CPU#1
>
> tc del qdisc dev ...
> qdisc_graft()...dev_graft_qdisc()...dev_deactivate()...
> -> grabs dev->queue_lock ...
>
> qdisc_reset()...{cbq,hfsc,htb,netem,tbf}_reset()...qdisc_watchdog_cancel()...
> -> hrtimer_cancel() - waiting for the qdisc_watchdog() to exit, while still
> holding dev->queue_lock
>
> CPU#0
>
> dev_hard_start_xmit() returns ...
> -> wants to get dev->queue_lock(!)
>
> DEADLOCK!
The entire optimization is a bit questionable IMO, it moves potentially
large parts of NET_TX_SOFTIRQ work to TIMER_SOFTIRQ/HRTIMER_SOFTIRQ,
which kind of defeats the separation of them.

ipt_connlimit has been sitting in POM-NG for a long time.
Here is a new shiny xt_connlimit with:
* xtables'ified
* will request the layer3 module
(previously it hotdropped every packet when it was not loaded)
* fixed: there was a deadlock in case of an OOM condition
* support for any layer4 protocol (e.g. UDP/SCTP)
* using jhash, as suggested by Eric Dumazet
* ipv6 support

The conntrack assigned to locally generated ICMP error is usually the one
assigned to the original packet which has caused the error. But if
the original packet is handled as invalid by nf_conntrack, no conntrack
is assigned to the original packet. Then nf_ct_attach() cannot assign
any conntrack to the ICMP error packet. In that case the current
nf_conntrack_icmp assigns appropriate conntrack to it. But the current
code mistakes the direction of the packet. As a result, NAT code mistakes
the address to be mangled.
To fix the bug, this changes nf_conntrack_icmp not to assign conntrack
to such ICMP error. Actually no address is necessary to be mangled
in this case.

The icmp[v6] l4proto modules parse headers in ICMP[v6] error to get tuple.
But they have to find the offset to transport protocol header before that.
Their processings are almost same as prepare() of l3proto modules.
This makes prepare() more generic to simplify icmp[v6] l4proto module
later.

Currently, CTS protection is partially implemented twice:
1. via prism2 ioctls, only used by hostapd
2. via STA beacon parsing, recorded in sta.use_protection but never used
(other than printed in debugfs)
Protection control should be implemented on a per-subif basis. For example,
a single physical device may be running a soft AP on one channel, and a STA
on another. The AP interface should use protection based on what hostapd told
it, and the STA interface should use protection based on beacon parsing.
These should operate independantly: one subif using protection should not
influence the other.
To implement this, I moved the use_protection flag into ieee80211_sub_if_data
and removed the device-global cts_protect_erp_frames flag.
I also made the PRISM2_PARAM_CTS_PROTECT_ERP_FRAMES write operation only
available for AP interfaces, to avoid any possibility of the user messing with
the behaviour of a STA.

The "protection needed" flag is currently parsed out of the ERP IE in
beacons. This patch allows the ERP IE to be available at assocation time
and causes the appropriate actions to be performed earlier.
It is slightly complicated by the fact that most APs don't include the
ERP IE in association responses. To work around this, we store ERP
values in the ieee80211_sta_bss structure.
Also added some WLAN_ERP defines for use by upcoming patches.

The semantics of not having an add_interface callback are not well
defined, this callback is required because otherwise you cannot obtain
the requested MAC address of the device. Change the documentation to
reflect this, add a note about having no MAC address at all, add a
warning that mac_addr in struct ieee80211_if_init_conf can be NULL and
finally verify that a few callbacks are assigned by way of BUG_ON()

The set_multicast_list function may be called without holding the rtnl
mutex, resulting in races when changing the underlying device's promiscous
and allmulti state. Use the change_rx_mode hook, which is always invoked
under the rtnl.

The method drivers currently use to synchronize multicast lists is not
very pretty:
- walk the multicast list
- search each entry on a copy of the previous list
- if new add to lower device
- walk the copy of the previous list
- search each entry on the current list
- if removed delete from lower device
- copy entire list
This patch adds a new field to struct dev_addr_list to store the
synchronization state and adds two helper functions for synchronization
and cleanup.

Currently the set_multicast_list (and set_rx_mode) callbacks are
responsible for configuring the device according to the IFF_PROMISC,
IFF_MULTICAST and IFF_ALLMULTI flags and the mc_list (and uc_list in
case of set_rx_mode).
These callbacks can be invoked from BH context without the rtnl_mutex
by dev_mc_add/dev_mc_delete, which makes reading the device flags and
promiscous/allmulti count racy. For real hardware drivers that just
commit all changes to the hardware this is not a real problem since
the stack guarantees to call them for every change, so at least the
final call will not race and commit the correct configuration to the
hardware.
For software devices that want to synchronize promiscous and multicast
state to an underlying device however this can cause corruption of the
underlying device's flags or promisc/allmulti counts.
When the software device is concurrently put in promiscous or allmulti
mode while set_multicast_list is invoked from bottem half context, the
device might synchronize the change to the underlying device without
holding the rtnl_mutex, which races with concurrent changes to the
underlying device.
Add a dev->change_rx_flags hook that is invoked when any of the flags
that affect rx filtering change (under the rtnl_mutex), which allows
drivers to perform synchronization immediately and only synchronize
the address lists in set_multicast_list/set_rx_mode.

Subject: [patch] net/input: fix net/rfkill/rfkill-input.c bug on 64-bit systems
this recent commit:
commit cf4328cd949c2086091c62c5685f1580fe9b55e4
Author: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com>
Date: Mon May 7 00:34:20 2007 -0700
[NET]: rfkill: add support for input key to control wireless radio
added this 64-bit bug:
....
unsigned int flags;
spin_lock_irqsave(&task->lock, flags);
....
irq 'flags' must be unsigned long, not unsigned int. The -rt tree has
strict checks about this on 64-bit so this triggered a build failure.
