As we know, netlink sockets are private resource of
net namespace, they can communicate with each other
only when they in the same net namespace. this works
well until we try to add namespace support for other
subsystems which use netlink.
Don't like ipv4 and route table.., it is not suited to
make these subsytems belong to net namespace, Such as
audit and crypto subsystems,they are more suitable to
user namespace.
So we must have the ability to make the netlink sockets
in same user namespace can communicate with each other.
This patch adds a new function pointer "compare" for
netlink_table, we can decide if the netlink sockets can
communicate with each other through this netlink_table
self-defined compare function.
The behavior isn't changed if we don't provide the compare
function for netlink_table.

I can hit ENOBUFS in the sendmsg() path with a large batch that is
composed of many netlink messages. Here that limit is 8 MBytes of
skbuff data area as kmalloc does not manage to get more than that.
While discussing atomic rule-set for nftables with Patrick McHardy,
we decided to put all rule-set updates that need to be applied
atomically in one single batch to simplify the existing approach.
However, as explained above, the existing netlink code limits us
to a maximum of ~20000 rules that fit in one single batch without
hitting ENOBUFS. iptables does not have such limitation as it is
using vmalloc.
This patch adds netlink_alloc_large_skb() which is only used in
the netlink_sendmsg() path. It uses alloc_skb if the memory
requested is <= one memory page, that should be the common case
for most subsystems, else vmalloc for higher memory allocations.

However, using rt_genid is quite heavy as it is bumped on route
add/change and multicast events amongst other places. These can
happen quite often, especially if using dynamic routing protocols.
While this is ok with routes (as they are just recreated locally),
the pmtu information is learned from remote systems and the icmp

genid to avoid excessive pmtu resets.

Currently, __hw_addr_sync_one is called in a loop by
__hw_addr_sync_multiple to sync each of a "from" device's hw addresses
to a "to" device. __hw_addr_sync_one calls __hw_addr_add_ex to attempt
to add each address. __hw_addr_add_ex is called with global=false, and
sync=true.
__hw_addr_add_ex checks to see if the new address matches an
address already on the list. If so, it tests global and sync. In this
case, sync=true, and it then checks if the address is already synced,
and if so, returns 0.
This 0 return causes __hw_addr_sync_one to increment the sync_cnt
and refcount for the "from" list's address entry, even though the address
is already synced and has a reference and sync_cnt. This will cause
the sync_cnt and refcount to increment without bound every time an
addresses is added to the "from" device and synced to the "to" device.
The fix here has two parts:
First, when __hw_addr_add_ex finds the address already exists
and is synced, return -EEXIST instead of 0.
Second, __hw_addr_sync_one checks the error return for -EEXIST,
and if so, it (a) does not add a refcount/sync_cnt, and (b) returns 0
itself so that __hw_addr_sync_multiple will not return an error.

When an address is added to a subordinate interface (the "to"
list), the address entry in the "from" list is not marked "synced" as
the entry added to the "to" list is.
When performing the unsync operation (e.g., dev_mc_unsync),
__hw_addr_unsync_one calls __hw_addr_del_entry with the "synced"
parameter set to true for the case when the address reference is being
released from the "from" list. This causes a test inside to fail,
with the result being that the reference count on the "from" address
is not properly decremeted and the address on the "from" list will
never be freed.
Correct this by having __hw_addr_unsync_one call the
__hw_addr_del_entry function with the "sync" flag set to false for the
"remove from the from list" case.

The sync_cnt field is not being initialized, which can result
in arbitrary values in the field. Fixed by initializing it to zero.

This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers
fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In
that case skb->tail will be a pointer whereas skb->network_header
will be an offset from head. This is corrected by using wrappers that
ensure that calculations are always made using pointers.

This stat is not relevant in IPv6, there is no checksum in IPv6 header.
Just leave a comment to explain the hole.

GRO on IPv4 doesn't aggregate frames if they don't have DF bit set.
Some servers use IP_MTU_DISCOVER/IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE, so linux receivers
are unable to aggregate this kind of traffic.
The right thing to do is to allow aggregation as long as the DF bit has
same value on all segments.
bnx2x LRO does this correctly.

The current state of affairs is that read()/write() will setup
RFS (Receive Flow Steering) for internet protocol sockets while
poll()/epoll() does not.
When poll() gets called with a TCP or UDP socket, we should update
the flow target.
This permits to RFS (if enabled) to select the appropriate CPU for
following incoming packets.
Note: Only connected UDP sockets can benefit from RFS.
