As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access
relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed
and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic
way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but
support to control which options are exported could be easily added.
A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor
Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the
moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is
included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by
new use cases.

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.
Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.
Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

There are currently two ways to determine whether the netlink socket is a
kernel one or a user one. This patch creates a single inline call for
this purpose and unifies all the calls in the af_netlink.c
No similar calls are found outside af_netlink.c.

There is no need to process outstanding netlink user->kernel packets
during rtnl_unlock now. There is no rtnl_trylock in the rtnetlink_rcv
anymore.
Normal code path is the following:
netlink_sendmsg
netlink_unicast
netlink_sendskb
skb_queue_tail
netlink_data_ready
rtnetlink_rcv
mutex_lock(&rtnl_mutex);
netlink_run_queue(sk, qlen, &rtnetlink_rcv_msg);
mutex_unlock(&rtnl_mutex);
So, it is possible, that packets can be present in the rtnl->sk_receive_queue
during rtnl_unlock, but there is no need to process them at that moment as
rtnetlink_rcv for that packet is pending.

Expansion of original idea from Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>
Add robustness and locking to the local_port_range sysctl.
1. Enforce that low < high when setting.
2. Use seqlock to ensure atomic update.
The locking might seem like overkill, but there are
cases where sysadmin might want to change value in the
middle of a DoS attack.

The IPv6 calling convention for x->mode->output is more general and could
help an eventual protocol-generic x->type->output implementation. This

the network header where practical.

This patch changes the calling convention so that on entry from
x->mode->output and before entry into x->type->output skb->data
will point to the payload instead of the IP header.
This is essentially a redistribution of skb_push/skb_pull calls
with the aim of minimising them on the common path of tunnel +
ESP.
It'll also let us use the same calling convention between IPv4
and IPv6 with the next patch.

I pointed this out back when this patch was first proposed but it looks like
it got lost along the way.
The checksum only needs to be ignored for NAT-T in transport mode where
we lose the original inner addresses due to NAT. With BEET the inner
addresses will be intact so the checksum remains valid.

To judge the timing for DAD, netif_carrier_ok() is used. However,

Loading the crypto algorithm by the alias instead of by module directly
has the advantage that all possible implementations of this algorithm
are loaded automatically and the crypto API can choose the best one
depending on its priority.
Additionally it ensures that the generic implementation as well as the
HW driver (if available) is loaded in case the HW driver needs the
generic version as fallback in corner cases.
Also remove the probe for sha1 in padlock's init code.
Quote from Herbert:
The probe is actually pointless since we can always probe when
the algorithm is actually used which does not lead to dead-locks
like this.

This patch adds the helper blkcipher_walk_virt_block which is similar to

This patch adds a comment to explain why we compare the cra_driver_name of
the algorithm being registered against the cra_name of a larval as opposed
to the cra_driver_name of the larval.
In fact larvals have only one name, cra_name which is the name that was
requested by the user. The test here is simply trying to find out whether
the algorithm being registered can or can not satisfy the larval.

Previously we assumed for convenience that the block size is a multiple of
the algorithm's required alignment. With the pending addition of CTR this
will no longer be the case as the block size will be 1 due to it being a
stream cipher. However, the alignment requirement will be that of the
underlying implementation which will most likely be greater than 1.

XTS currently considered to be the successor of the LRW mode by the IEEE1619
workgroup. LRW was discarded, because it was not secure if the encyption key
itself is encrypted with LRW.
XTS does not have this problem. The implementation is pretty straightforward,
a new function was added to gf128mul to handle GF(128) elements in ble format.

When scatterwalk is built as a module digest.c was broken because it
requires the crypto_km_types structure which is in scatterwalk. This
patch removes the crypto_km_types structure by encoding the logic into

This patch adds the authenc algorithm which constructs an AEAD algorithm
from an asynchronous block cipher and a hash. The construction is done
by concatenating the encrypted result from the cipher with the output
from the hash, as is used by the IPsec ESP protocol.
The authenc algorithm exists as a template with four parameters:
authenc(auth, authsize, enc, enckeylen).
The authentication algorithm, the authentication size (i.e., truncating
the output of the authentication algorithm), the encryption algorithm,
and the encryption key length. Both the size field and the key length
field are in bytes. For example, AES-128 with SHA1-HMAC would be
represented by
authenc(hmac(sha1), 12, cbc(aes), 16)
The key for the authenc algorithm is the concatenation of the keys for
the authentication algorithm with the encryption algorithm. For the
above example, if a key of length 36 bytes is given, then hmac(sha1)
would receive the first 20 bytes while the last 16 would be given to
cbc(aes).
