This patch removes a bug in the current code. I agree with Andrea's comment
that there is a problem here but the way it is treated does not fix it.
The problem is that whenever Ack Ratio > cwnd, starvation/deadlock occurs:
* the receiver will not send an Ack until (Ack Ratio - cwnd) data packets
have arrived;
* the sender will not send any data packet before the receipt of an Ack
advances the send window.
The only way that the connection then progresses was via RTO timeout. In one
extreme case (bulk transfer), it was observed that this happened for every single
packet; i.e. hundreds of packets, each a RTO timeout of 1..3 seconds apart:
a transfer which normally would take a fraction of a second thus grew to
several minutes.
The solution taken by this approach is to observe the relation
"Ack Ratio <= cwnd"
by using the constraint (1) from RFC 4341, 6.1.2; i.e. set
Ack Ratio = ceil(cwnd / 2)
and update it whenever either Ack Ratio or cwnd change. This ensures that
the deadlock problem can not arise.

Since it makes not sense to assign negative values to Ack Ratio, this
patch disallows this possibility.
As a consequence, a Bug test for negative Ack Ratio values becomes obsolete.
Furthermore, a check against overflow (as Ack Ratio may not exceed 2 bytes,
due to RFC 4340, 11.3) has been added.

In CCID2 the receiver-history is sorted in ascending order of sequence number,
but the processing of received Ack Vectors requires the list traversal in the
opposite direction.
The current code has a bug in this regard: the list traversal is upwards. As a
consequence, only Ack Vectors with a run length of 1 will pass, in all other
Ack Vectors the remaining (acked) sequence numbers are missed, and may later
falsely be identified as lost.
Note: This bug is only visible when Ack Ratio > 1, since otherwise the run
lengths of Ack Vectors are 0.

This cleans up the consequences of an earlier patch which
introduced the `if IP_DCCP' clause into net/dccp/Kconfig.
The CCID Kconfig menu is sourced within this clause; as a
consequence, all tests of type `depends on IP_DCCP' are now
redundant.

This patch addresses the following problems:
1. DCCP relies for its proper functioning on having at least one CCID module
enabled (as in TCP plugable congestion control). Currently it is possible to
disable both CCIDs and thus leave the DCCP module in a compiled, but entirely
non-functional state: no sockets can be created when no CCID is available.
Furthermore, the protocol is (again like TCP) not intended to be used without
CCIDs. Last, a non-empty CCID list is needed for doing CCID feature negotiation.
2. Internally the default CCID that is advertised by the Linux host is set to CCID2
(DCCPF_INITIAL_CCID in include/linux/dccp.h). Disabling CCID2 in the Kconfig
menu without changing the defaults leads to a failure `module not found' when
trying to load the dccp module (which internally tries to load the default CCID).
3. The specification (RFC 4340, sec. 10) treats CCID2 somewhat like a
`minimum common denominator'; the specification says that:
* "New connections start with CCID 2 for both endpoints"
* "A DCCP implementation intended for general use, such as an implementation in a
general-purpose operating system kernel, SHOULD implement at least CCID 2.
The intent is to make CCID 2 broadly available for interoperability [...]"
Providing CCID2 as minimum-required CCID (like Reno/Cubic in TCP) thus seems reasonable.
Hence this patch automatically selects CCID2 when DCCP is enabled. Documentation also added.
Discussions with Ian McDonald on this subject are gratefully acknowledged.

This extends the DCCP socket API by honouring any shutdown(2) option set by the user.
The behaviour is, as much as possible, made consistent with the API for TCP's shutdown.
This patch exploits the information provided by the user via the socket API to reduce
processing costs:
* if the read end is closed (SHUT_RD), it is not necessary to deliver to input CCID;
* if the write end is closed (SHUT_WR), the same idea applies, but with a difference -
as long as the TX queue has not been drained, we need to receive feedback to keep
congestion-control rates up to date. Hence SHUT_WR is honoured only after the last
packet (under congestion control) has been sent;
* although SHUT_RDWR seems nonsensical, it is nevertheless supported in the same manner
as for TCP (and agrees with test for SHUTDOWN_MASK in dccp_poll() in net/dccp/proto.c).
Furthermore, most of the code already honours the sk_shutdown flags (dccp_recvmsg() for
instance sets the read length to 0 if SHUT_RD had been called); CCID handling is now added
to this by the present patch.
There will also no longer be any delivery when the socket is in the final stages, i.e. when
one of dccp_close(), dccp_fin(), or dccp_done() has been called - which is fine since at
that stage the connection is its final stages.
Motivation and background are on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/shutdown
A FIXME has been added to notify the other end if SHUT_RD has been set (RFC 4340, 11.7).
Note: There is a comment in inet_shutdown() in net/ipv4/af_inet.c which asks to "make
sure the socket is a TCP socket". This should probably be extended to mean
`TCP or DCCP socket' (the code is also used by UDP and raw sockets).

This decouples PARTOPEN from TCP-specific stream-states.
It thus addresses the FIXME.
The code has been checked with regard to dependency on PARTOPEN and FIN_WAIT1
states (to which PARTOPEN previously was mapped): there is no difference, as
PARTOPEN is always referred to directly (i.e. not via the mapping to TCP
state).

This fixes/updates the handling of idle and application-limited periods in CCID3,

This patch fixes a previously undiscovered bug; the problem is in computing
the elapsed time as the time between `receiving' the packet (i.e. skb enters
CCID module) and sending feedback:
- there is no layer-processing, queueing, or delay involved,
- hence the elapsed time is in the order of 1 function call
- this is in the dimension of maximally 50..100usec
- which renders the use of elapsed time almost entirely useless.
The fix is simply to ignore such trivial amounts of elapsed time.
As a further advantage, the now useless elapsed_time field can be removed from
the socket, which reduces the socket structure by another four bytes.

This updates the CCID3 code with regard to two instances of using `MSS' in place of `s':
1. The RFC3390-based initial rate: both rfc3448bis as well as the Faster Restart
draft now consistently use `s' instead of MSS.
2. Now agrees with section 4.2 of rfc3448bis: "If the sender is ready to send data when
it does not yet have a round trip sample, the value of X is set to s bytes per
second, for segment size s [...]"

This function references sk->sk_prot->xxx for many times.
It turned out, that there's so many code in it, that gcc
cannot always optimize access to sk->sk_prot's fields.
After saving the sk->sk_prot on the stack and comparing
disassembled code, it turned out that the function became
~10 bytes shorter and made less dereferences (on i386 and
x86_64). Stack consumption didn't grow.
Besides, this patch drives most of this function into the

This patch adds a separate workqueue for cleaning up a network

there is a problem to unregister devices in IPv6. Indeed the code
that cleans up also schedule work in keventd: as long as cleanup_net()
hasn't return, dst_gc_task() cannot run and as long as dst_gc_task() has
not run, there are still some references pending on the net devices and
cleanup_net() can not unregister and exit the keventd workqueue.

workqueue
Every 600 seconds (ip_rt_secret_interval), a softirq flush of the
whole ip route cache is triggered. On loaded machines, this can starve
softirq for many seconds and can eventually crash.
This patch moves this flush to a workqueue context, using the worker
we intoduced in commit 39c90ece7565f5c47110c2fa77409d7a9478bd5b (IPV4:
Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.)
Also, immediate flushes (echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush) are
using rt_do_flush() helper function, wich take attention to
rescheduling.
Next step will be to handle delayed flushes
("echo -1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush" or "ip route flush cache")

Both ipv6/raw.c and ipv4/raw.c use the seq files to walk
through the raw sockets hash and show them.
The "walking" code is rather huge, but is identical in both
cases. The difference is the hash table to walk over and
the protocol family to check (this was not in the first
virsion of the patch, which was noticed by YOSHIFUJI)
Make the ->open store the needed hash table and the family
on the allocated raw_iter_state and make the start/next/stop
callbacks work with it.

After the previous prep work this just consists of removing checks
limiting the code to work in the initial network namespace, and
updating rtmsg_ifinfo so we can generate events for devices in
something other then the initial network namespace.
Referring to network other network devices like the IFLA_LINK
and IFLA_MASTER attributes do, gets interesting if those network
devices happen to be in other network namespaces. Currently
ifindex numbers are allocated globally so I have taken the path
of least resistance and not still report the information even
though the devices they are talking about are invisible.
If applications start getting confused or when ifindex
numbers become local to the network namespace we may need
to do something different in the future.

This changes the SIWTXPOWER ioctl to also accept a txpower setting of
"automatic". Since mac80211 currently cannot tell drivers to automatically
adjust tx power, we select the tx power level of the current channel. While
this is kind of a hack, it certainly saves some iwconfig users from headaches.
