This one specifies where to start MSG_PEEK-ing queue data from. When
set to negative value means that MSG_PEEK works as ususally -- peeks
from the head of the queue always.
When some bytes are peeked from queue and the peeking offset is non
negative it is moved forward so that the next peek will return next
portion of data.
When non-peeking recvmsg occurs and the peeking offset is non negative
is is moved backward so that the next peek will still peek the proper
data (i.e. the one that would have been picked if there were no non
peeking recv in between).
The offset is set using per-proto opteration to let the protocol handle
the locking issues and to check whether the peeking offset feature is
supported by the protocol the socket belongs to.

This one is only considered for MSG_PEEK flag and the value pointed by
it specifies where to start peeking bytes from. If the offset happens to
point into the middle of the returned skb, the offset within this skb is
put back to this very argument.

Both translation tables and network coding use timeouts to do house
keeping, so we might as well share the function used to compare a
timestamp+timeout with current time.
For readability and simplicity, the function is renamed to
has_timed_out() and uses time_is_before_jiffies() instead of
time_after().

All batman-adv packets have a common 3 byte header. It can be used to share
some code between different code paths, but it was never explicit stated that
this header has to be always the same for all packets. Therefore, new code
changes always have the problem that they may accidently introduce regressions
by moving some elements around.
A new structure is introduced that contains the common header and makes it
easier visible that these 3 bytes have to be the same for all on-wire packets.

(ttvn == 0) is currently used as initial condition. However this is not a good
idea because ttvn gets the vale zero each time after reaching the maximum value
(wrap around). For this reason a new flag is added in order to define whether a
node has an initialised table or not. Moreover, after invoking
tt_global_del_orig(), tt_initialised has to be set to false

This commit ensures that lost_cnt_hint is correctly updated in
tcp_shifted_skb() for FACK TCP senders. The lost_cnt_hint adjustment
in tcp_sacktag_one() only applies to non-FACK senders, so FACK senders
need their own adjustment.
This applies the spirit of 1e5289e121372a3494402b1b131b41bfe1cf9b7f -
except now that the sequence range passed into tcp_sacktag_one() is
correct we need only have a special case adjustment for FACK.

Fix the newly-SACKed range to be the range of newly-shifted bytes.
Previously - since 832d11c5cd076abc0aa1eaf7be96c81d1a59ce41 -
tcp_shifted_skb() incorrectly called tcp_sacktag_one() with the start
and end sequence numbers of the skb it passes in set to the range just
beyond the range that is newly-SACKed.
This commit also removes a special-case adjustment to lost_cnt_hint in
tcp_shifted_skb() since the pre-existing adjustment of lost_cnt_hint
in tcp_sacktag_one() now properly handles this things now that the
correct start sequence number is passed in.

ranges that do not align with skb boundaries, as tcp_shifted_skb()
needs to do in an upcoming fix in this patch series.

at all, which makes its semantics and dependencies more clear.

Currently, it is not easily possible to get TOS/DSCP value of packets from
an incoming TCP stream. The mechanism is there, IP_PKTOPTIONS getsockopt
with IP_RECVTOS set, the same way as incoming TTL can be queried. This is
not actually implemented for TOS, though.
This patch adds this functionality, both for IPv4 (IP_PKTOPTIONS) and IPv6
(IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS). For IPv4, like in the IP_RECVTTL case, the value of
the TOS field is stored from the other party's ACK.
This is needed for proxies which require DSCP transparency. One such example
is at http://zph.bratcheda.org/.

Quoth David:
1) GRO MAC header comparisons were ethernet specific, breaking other
link types. This required a multi-faceted fix to cure the originally
noted case (Infiniband), because IPoIB was lying about it's actual
hard header length. Thanks to Eric Dumazet, Roland Dreier, and
others.
2) Fix build failure when INET_UDP_DIAG is built in and ipv6 is modular.
From Anisse Astier.
3) Off by ones and other bug fixes in netprio_cgroup from Neil Horman.
4) ipv4 TCP reset generation needs to respect any network interface
binding from the socket, otherwise route lookups might give a
different result than all the other segments received. From Shawn
Lu.
5) Fix unintended regression in ipv4 proxy ARP responses, from Thomas
Graf.
6) Fix SKB under-allocation bug in sh_eth, from Yoshihiro Shimoda.
7) Revert skge PCI mapping changes that are causing crashes for some
folks, from Stephen Hemminger.
8) IPV4 route lookups fill in the wildcarded fields of the given flow
lookup key passed in, which is fine most of the time as this is
exactly what the caller's want. However there are a few cases that
want to retain the original flow key values afterwards, so handle
those cases properly. Fix from Julian Anastasov.
9) IGB/IXGBE VF lookup bug fixes from Greg Rose.
10) Properly null terminate filename passed to ethtool flash device
method, from Ben Hutchings.
11) S3 resume fix in via-velocity from David Lv.

Commit 653241 (net: RFC3069, private VLAN proxy arp support) changed
the behavior of arp proxy to send arp replies back out on the interface
the request came in even if the private VLAN feature is disabled.
Previously we checked rt->dst.dev != skb->dev for in scenarios, when
proxy arp is enabled on for the netdevice and also when individual proxy
neighbour entries have been added.
This patch adds the check back for the pneigh_lookup() scenario.

The IP_UNICAST_IF feature is needed by the Wine project. This patch
implements the feature by setting the outgoing interface in a similar
fashion to that of IP_MULTICAST_IF. A separate option is needed to
handle this feature since the existing options do not provide all of
the characteristics required by IP_UNICAST_IF, a summary is provided
below.
SO_BINDTODEVICE:
* SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative privileges, IP_UNICAST_IF
does not. From reading some old mailing list articles my
understanding is that SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative
privileges because it can override the administrator's routing
settings.
* The SO_BINDTODEVICE option restricts both outbound and inbound
traffic, IP_UNICAST_IF only impacts outbound traffic.
IP_PKTINFO:
* Since IP_PKTINFO and IP_UNICAST_IF are independent options,
implementing IP_UNICAST_IF with IP_PKTINFO will likely break some
applications.
* Implementing IP_UNICAST_IF on top of IP_PKTINFO significantly
complicates the Wine codebase and reduces the socket performance
(doing this requires a lot of extra communication between the
"server" and "user" layers).
bind():
* bind() does not work on broadcast packets, IP_UNICAST_IF is
specifically intended to work with broadcast packets.
* Like SO_BINDTODEVICE, bind() restricts both outbound and inbound
traffic.

The qdisc supports two operations - plug and unplug. When the
qdisc receives a plug command via netlink request, packets arriving
henceforth are buffered until a corresponding unplug command is received.
Depending on the type of unplug command, the queue can be unplugged
indefinitely or selectively.
This qdisc can be used to implement output buffering, an essential
functionality required for consistent recovery in checkpoint based
fault-tolerance systems. Output buffering enables speculative execution
by allowing generated network traffic to be rolled back. It is used to
provide network protection for Xen Guests in the Remus high availability
project, available as part of Xen.
This module is generic enough to be used by any other system that wishes
to add speculative execution and output buffering to its applications.
This module was originally available in the linux 2.6.32 PV-OPS tree,
used as dom0 for Xen.

Changes in V3:
* Removed debug output (printk) on queue overflow
* Added TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_INDEFINITE - that allows the user to
use this qdisc, for simple plug/unplug operations.
* Use of packet counts instead of pointers to keep track of
the buffers in the queue.
