5dd36bc933 mac80211: allow advertising correct maximum aggregate size
Currently, mac80211 always advertises that it may send
up to 64 subframes in an aggregate. This is fine, since
it's the max, but might as well be set to zero instead
since it doesn't have any information.

However, drivers might have that information, so allow
them to set a variable giving it, which will then be
used. The default of zero will be fine since to the
peer that means we don't know and it will just use its
own limit for the buffer size.

0b01f030d3 mac80211: track receiver's aggregation reorder buffer size
The aggregation code currently doesn't implement the
buffer size negotiation. It will always request a max
buffer size (which is fine, if a little pointless, as
the mac80211 code doesn't know and might just use 0
instead), but if the peer requests a smaller size it
isn't possible to honour this request.

In order to fix this, look at the buffer size in the
addBA response frame, keep track of it and pass it to
the driver in the ampdu_action callback when called
with the IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL action. That
way the driver can limit the number of subframes in
aggregates appropriately.

Note that this doesn't fix any drivers apart from the
addition of the new argument -- they all need to be
updated separately to use this variable!

a992ca2a04 netfilter: nf_conntrack_tstamp: add flow-based timestamp extension
This patch adds flow-based timestamping for conntracks. This
conntrack extension is disabled by default. Basically, we use
two 64-bits variables to store the creation timestamp once the
conntrack has been confirmed and the other to store the deletion
time. This extension is disabled by default, to enable it, you
have to:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timestamp

This patch allows to save memory for user-space flow-based
loogers such as ulogd2. In short, ulogd2 does not need to
keep a hashtable with the conntrack in user-space to know
when they were created and destroyed, instead we use the
kernel timestamp. If we want to have a sane IPFIX implementation
in user-space, this nanosecs resolution timestamps are also
useful. Other custom user-space applications can benefit from
this via libnetfilter_conntrack.

This patch modifies the /proc output to display the delta time
in seconds since the flow start. You can also obtain the
flow-start date by means of the conntrack-tools.

These warnings are trivial to kill, yet rather annoying when building with

d6ae3bae3d af_unix: implement socket filter
Linux Socket Filters can already be successfully attached and detached on unix
sockets with setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_{ATTACH,DETACH}_FILTER, ...).
See: Documentation/networking/filter.txt

But the filter was never used in the unix socket code so it did not work. This
patch uses sk_filter() to filter buffers before delivery.

This short program demonstrates the problem on SOCK_DGRAM.

int main(void) {
  int i, j, ret;
  int sv[2];
  struct pollfd fds[2];
  char *message = "Hello world!";
  char buffer[64];
  struct sock_filter ins[32] = {{0,},};
  struct sock_fprog filter;

  socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0, sv);

  for (i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i++) {
    fds[i].fd = sv[i];
    fds[i].events = POLLIN;
    fds[i].revents = 0;
  }

  for(j = 1 ; j < 13 ; j++) {

    /* Set a socket filter to truncate the message */
    memset(ins, 0, sizeof(ins));
    ins[0].code = BPF_RET|BPF_K;
    ins[0].k = j;
    filter.len = 1;
    filter.filter = ins;
    setsockopt(sv[1], SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_FILTER, &filter, sizeof(filter));

    /* send a message */
    send(sv[0], message, strlen(message) + 1, 0);

    /* The filter should let the message pass but truncated. */
    poll(fds, 2, 0);

    /* Receive the truncated message*/
    ret = recv(sv[1], buffer, 64, 0);
    printf("received %d bytes, expected %d\n", ret, j);
  }

    for (i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i++)
      close(sv[i]);

  return 0;
}

2fdc1c8093 ipv6: Silence privacy extensions initialization
When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback
interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a
printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set.

This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as
part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of
vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless
"lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg.

It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the
use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most
sensible solution.

This patch implements the "second best choice".

Since the netbios-ns conntrack module uses the same helper
functionality as the snmp, only one helper function is added
for both snmp and netbios-ns modules into the new object -
nf_conntrack_broadcast.

94b27cc361 netfilter: allow NFQUEUE bypass if no listener is available
If an skb is to be NF_QUEUE'd, but no program has opened the queue, the
packet is dropped.

This adds a v2 target revision of xt_NFQUEUE that allows packets to
continue through the ruleset instead.

Because the actual queueing happens outside of the target context, the
'bypass' flag has to be communicated back to the netfilter core.

Unfortunately the only choice to do this without adding a new function
argument is to use the target function return value (i.e. the verdict).

In the NF_QUEUE case, the upper 16bit already contain the queue number
to use.  The previous patch reduced NF_VERDICT_MASK to 0xff, i.e.
we now have extra room for a new flag.

If a hook issued a NF_QUEUE verdict, then the netfilter core will
continue packet processing if the queueing hook
returns -ESRCH (== "this queue does not exist") and the new
NF_VERDICT_FLAG_QUEUE_BYPASS flag is set in the verdict value.

Note: If the queue exists, but userspace does not consume packets fast
enough, the skb will still be dropped.

f615df76ed netfilter: reduce NF_VERDICT_MASK to 0xff
NF_VERDICT_MASK is currently 0xffff. This is because the upper
16 bits are used to store errno (for NF_DROP) or the queue number
(NF_QUEUE verdict).

As there are up to 0xffff different queues available, there is no more
room to store additional flags.

At the moment there are only 6 different verdicts, i.e. we can reduce
NF_VERDICT_MASK to 0xff to allow storing additional flags in the 0xff00 space.

NF_VERDICT_BITS would then be reduced to 8, but because the value is
exported to userspace, this might cause breakage; e.g.:

e.g. 'queuenr = (1 << NF_VERDICT_BITS) | NF_QUEUE'  would now break.

Thus, remove NF_VERDICT_BITS usage in the kernel and move the old value
to the 'userspace compat' section.

43f393caec netfilter: audit target to record accepted/dropped packets
This patch adds a new netfilter target which creates audit records
for packets traversing a certain chain.

It can be used to record packets which are rejected administraively
as follows:

  -N AUDIT_DROP
  -A AUDIT_DROP -j AUDIT --type DROP
  -A AUDIT_DROP -j DROP

a rule which would typically drop or reject a packet would then
invoke the new chain to record packets before dropping them.

  -j AUDIT_DROP

The module is protocol independant and works for iptables, ip6tables
and ebtables.

The following information is logged:
 - netfilter hook
 - packet length
 - incomming/outgoing interface
 - MAC src/dst/proto for ethernet packets
 - src/dst/protocol address for IPv4/IPv6
 - src/dst port for TCP/UDP/UDPLITE
 - icmp type/code

route and dst entries, rename the config option to IP_ROUTE_CLASSID and move
it outside of traffic scheduling context to get rid of the NET_SCHED dependeny.

1ac9ad1394 net: remove dev_txq_stats_fold()
After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need
anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters.

Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan :

1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters.

2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the
dev->stats.tx_dropped counter.

3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b8f (Use net_device internal stats)
    Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long"
fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats)

4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold
tx_bytes/tx_packets

This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget,
calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

ed7809d9c4 batman-adv: Even Batman should not dereference NULL pointers
There's a problem in net/batman-adv/unicast.c::frag_send_skb().
dev_alloc_skb() allocates memory and may fail, thus returning NULL. If
this happens we'll pass a NULL pointer on to skb_split() which in turn
hands it to skb_split_inside_header() from where it gets passed to
skb_put() that lets skb_tail_pointer() play with it and that function
dereferences it. And thus the bat dies.

While I was at it I also moved the call to dev_alloc_skb() above the
assignment to 'unicast_packet' since there's no reason to do that
assignment if the memory allocation fails.

82694f764d mac80211: use maximum number of AMPDU frames as default in BA RX
When the buffer size is set to zero in the block ack parameter set
field, we should use the maximum supported number of subframes.  The
existing code was bogus and was doing some unnecessary calculations
that lead to wrong values.

Thanks Johannes for helping me figure this one out.

681c4d07dd mac80211: fix lockdep warning
Since the introduction of the fixes for the
reorder timer, mac80211 will cause lockdep
warnings because lockdep confuses
local->skb_queue and local->rx_skb_queue
and treats their lock as the same.

However, their locks are different, and are
valid in different contexts (the former is
used in IRQ context, the latter in BH only)
and the only thing to be done is mark the
former as a different lock class so that
lockdep can tell the difference.

f31e8d4982 netfilter: ctnetlink: fix loop in ctnetlink_get_conntrack()
This patch fixes a loop in ctnetlink_get_conntrack() that can be
triggered if you use the same socket to receive events and to
perform a GET operation. Under heavy load, netlink_unicast()
may return -EAGAIN, this error code is reserved in nfnetlink for
the module load-on-demand. Instead, we return -ENOBUFS which is
the appropriate error code that has to be propagated to
user-space.
