Call gso_make_checksum. This should have the benefit of using a

This also adds NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM to differentiate devices that

I noticed we were sending wrong IPv4 ID in TCP flows when MTU discovery
is disabled.
Note how GSO/TSO packets do not have monotonically incrementing ID.
06:37:41.575531 IP (id 14227, proto: TCP (6), length: 4396)
06:37:41.575534 IP (id 14272, proto: TCP (6), length: 65212)

06:37:41.575683 IP (id 14361, proto: TCP (6), length: 63764)
It appears I introduced this bug in linux-3.1.
inet_getid() must return the old value of peer->ip_id_count,
not the new one.
Lets revert this part, and remove the prevention of
a null identification field in IPv6 Fragment Extension Header,
which is dubious and not even done properly.

pull request: wireless-next 2014-06-02
Please pull this remaining batch of updates intended for the 3.16 stream...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"The remainder for -next right now is mostly fixes, and a handful of
small new things like some CSA infrastructure, the regdb script mW/dBm
conversion change and sending wiphy notifications."
For the bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"Some more patches for 3.16. There is nothing really special here, just a
bunch of clean ups, fixes plus some small improvements. Please pull."
For the nfc bits, Samuel says:
"We have:
- Felica (Type3) tags support for trf7970a
- Type 4b tags support for port100
- st21nfca DTS typo fix
- A few sparse warning fixes"
For the atheros bits, Kalle says:
"Ben added support for setting antenna configurations. Michal improved
warm reset so that we would not need to fall back to cold reset that
often, an issue where ath10k stripped protected flag while in monitor
mode and made module initialisation asynchronous to fix the problems
with firmware loading when the driver is linked to the kernel.
Luca removed unused channel_switch_beacon callbacks both from ath9k and
ath10k. Marek fixed Protected Management Frames (PMF) when using Action
Frames. Also we had other small fixes everywhere in the driver."
Along with that, there are a handful of updates to a variety
of drivers. This includes updates to at76c50x-usb, ath9k, b43,
brcmfmac, mwifiex, rsi, rtlwifi, and wil6210.

Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP
generator.
linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge
cost on servers disabling MTU discovery.
1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes
2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs,
with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load.
3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth
is about 20.
4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of
not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in
the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id())
5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively.
IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect'
Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time,
so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of
fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments
with a recycled ID.
We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP
as a key.
ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it
belongs (it is only used from this file)
secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed.
Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid
unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments.

Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
This small patchset contains three accumulated Netfilter/IPVS updates,
they are:
1) Refactorize common NAT code by encapsulating it into a helper
function, similarly to what we do in other conntrack extensions,
from Florian Westphal.
2) A minor format string mismatch fix for IPVS, from Masanari Iida.
3) Add quota support to the netfilter accounting infrastructure, now
you can add quotas to accounting objects via the nfnetlink interface
and use them from iptables. You can also listen to quota

In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel
contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch
(ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the
transaction). But some drivers may not support switching the channel
context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and
assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on
the fly, without unassigning it first.
To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that
let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:
1) Add set element update notification via netlink, from Arturo Borrero.
2) Put all object updates in one single message batch that is sent to
kernel-space. Before this patch only rules where included in the batch.
This series also introduces the generic transaction infrastructure so
updates to all objects (tables, chains, rules and sets) are applied in
an all-or-nothing fashion, these series from me.
3) Defer release of objects via call_rcu to reduce the time required to
commit changes. The assumption is that all objects are destroyed in
reverse order to ensure that dependencies betweem them are fulfilled
(ie. rules and sets are destroyed first, then chains, and finally
tables).
4) Allow to match by bridge port name, from Tomasz Bursztyka. This series
include two patches to prepare this new feature.
5) Implement the proper set selection based on the characteristics of the
data. The new infrastructure also allows you to specify your preferences
in terms of memory and computational complexity so the underlying set
type is also selected according to your needs, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Several cleanup patches for nft expressions, including one minor possible
compilation breakage due to missing mark support, also from Patrick.

Experience with the recent e114a710aa50 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited
checking to improve congestion control") has shown that there are
common cases where that commit can cause cwnd to be much larger than
necessary. This leads to TSO autosizing cooking skbs that are too
large, among other things.
The main problems seemed to be:
(1) That commit attempted to predict the future behavior of the
connection by looking at the write queue (if TSO or TSQ limit
sending). That prediction sometimes overestimated future outstanding
packets.
(2) That commit always allowed cwnd to grow to twice the number of
outstanding packets (even in congestion avoidance, where this is not
needed).
This commit improves both of these, by:
(1) Switching to a measurement-based approach where we explicitly
track the largest number of packets in flight during the past window
("max_packets_out"), and remember whether we were cwnd-limited at the
moment we finished sending that flight.
(2) Only allowing cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding
packets ("max_packets_out") in slow start. In congestion avoidance
mode we now only allow cwnd to grow if it was fully utilized.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we
send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel
2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this
case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on
the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case).
The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in
the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will
still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an
adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset.
Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver.
A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this
case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI
value is still valid.

This patch reworks the nf_tables API so set updates are included in
the same batch that contains rule updates. This speeds up rule-set
updates since we skip a dialog of four messages between kernel and
user-space (two on each direction), from:
1) create the set and send netlink message to the kernel
2) process the response from the kernel that contains the allocated name.
3) add the set elements and send netlink message to the kernel.
4) process the response from the kernel (to check for errors).
To:
1) add the set to the batch.
2) add the set elements to the batch.
3) add the rule that points to the set.
4) send batch to the kernel.
This also introduces an internal set ID (NFTA_SET_ID) that is unique
in the batch so set elements and rules can refer to new sets.
Backward compatibility has been only retained in userspace, this
means that new nft versions can talk to the kernel both in the new
and the old fashion.

The 802.15.4-2011 standard states that for each key, a list of devices
that use this key shall be kept. Previous patches have only considered
two options:
* a device "uses" (or may use) all keys, rendering the list useless
* a device is restricted to a certain set of keys
Another option would be that a device *may* use all keys, but need not
do so, and we are interested in the actual set of keys the device uses.
Recording keys used by any given device may have a noticable performance
impact and might not be needed as often. The common case, in which a
device will not switch keys too often, should still perform well.

excessive and not particularly useful. The DeviceDescriptorHandleList
