The attached patch adds gratuitous arp filtering, more precisely: it
allows checking that the IPv4 source address matches the IPv4
destination address inside the ARP header. It also adds a check for the
hardware address type when matching MAC addresses (nothing critical,
just for better consistency).

When a transmitted packet is looped back directly, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL
maps to the semantics of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Therefore we should
treat it as such in the stack.

The skb transport pointer is currently used to specify the start
of the checksum region for transmit checksum offload. Unfortunately,
the same pointer is also used during receive side processing.
This creates a problem when we want to retransmit a received
packet with partial checksums since the skb transport pointer
would be overwritten.
This patch solves this problem by creating a new 16-bit csum_start
offset value to replace the skb transport header for the purpose
of checksums. This offset is calculated from skb->head so that
it does not have to change when skb->data changes.
No extra space is required since csum_offset itself fits within
a 16-bit word so we can use the other 16 bits for csum_start.
For backwards compatibility, just before we push a packet with
partial checksums off into the device driver, we set the skb
transport header to what it would have been under the old scheme.

Network drivers which keep stats allocate their own stats structure
then write a get_stats() function to return them. It would be nice if
this were done by default.
1) Add a new "stats" field to "struct net_device".
2) Add a new feature field to say "this driver uses the internal one"
3) Have a default "get_stats" which returns NULL if that feature not set.
4) Change callers to check result of get_stats call for NULL, not if
->get_stats is set.
This should not break backwards compatibility with older drivers, yet
allow modern drivers to shed some boilerplate code.
Lightly tested: works for a modified lguest network driver.

The results of FIB rules lookups are cached in the routing cache
except for IPv6 as no such cache exists. So far, it was the
responsibility of the user to flush the cache after modifying any
rules. This lead to many false bug reports due to misunderstanding
of this concept.
This patch automatically flushes the route cache after inserting
or deleting a rule.

Right now Xen has a horrible hack that lets it forward packets with
partial checksums. One of the reasons that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE were added is so that we can get rid of this hack
(where it creates two extra bits in the skbuff to essentially mirror
ip_summed without being destroyed by the forwarding code).
I had forgotten that I've already gone through all the deivce drivers
last time around to make sure that they're looking at ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL rather than ip_summed != 0 on transmit. In any case,
I've now done that again so it should definitely be safe.
Unfortunately nobody has yet added any code to update CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
values on forward so we I'm setting that to CHECKSUM_NONE. This should
be safe to remove for bridging but I'd like to check that code path
first.
So here is the patch that lets us get rid of the hack by preserving
ip_summed (mostly) on forwarded packets.

Rules which match against device names in their selector can
remain while the device itself disappears, in fact the device
doesn't have to present when the rule is added in the first
place. The device name is resolved by trying when the rule is
added and later by listening to NETDEV_REGISTER/UNREGISTER
notifications.
This patch adds the flag FIB_RULE_DEV_DETACHED which is set
towards userspace when a rule contains a device match which
is unresolved at the moment. This eases spotting the reason
why certain rules seem not to function properly.

This patch adds a new rule action FR_ACT_GOTO which allows
to skip a set of rules by jumping to another rule. The rule
to jump to is specified via the FRA_GOTO attribute which
carries a rule preference.
Referring to a rule which doesn't exists is explicitely allowed.
Such goto rules are marked with the flag FIB_RULE_UNRESOLVED
and will act like a rule with a non-matching selector. The rule
will become functional as soon as its target is present.
The goto action enables performance optimizations by reducing
the average number of rules that have to be passed per lookup.
Example:
0: from all lookup local
40: not from all to 192.168.23.128 goto 32766
41: from all fwmark 0xa blackhole
42: from all fwmark 0xff blackhole
32766: from all lookup main

As stated in the sctp socket api draft:
sac_info: variable
If the sac_state is SCTP_COMM_LOST and an ABORT chunk was received
for this association, sac_info[] contains the complete ABORT chunk as
defined in the SCTP specification RFC2960 [RFC2960] section 3.3.7.
We now save received ABORT chunks into the sac_info field and pass that
to the user.

This option was introduced in draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctpsocket-13. It
prevents head-of-line blocking in the case of one-to-many endpoint.
Applications enabling this option really must enable SCTP_SNDRCV event
so that they would know where the data belongs. Based on an
earlier patch by Ivan Skytte Jørgensen.
Additionally, this functionality now permits multiple associations
on the same endpoint to enter Partial Delivery. Applications should
be extra careful, when using this functionality, to track EOR indicators.

The error pointer argument in netlink message handlers is used
to signal the special case where processing has to be interrupted
because a dump was started but no error happened. Instead it is
simpler and more clear to return -EINTR and have netlink_run_queue()
deal with getting the queue right.
nfnetlink passed on this error pointer to its subsystem handlers
but only uses it to signal the start of a netlink dump. Therefore
it can be removed there as well.
This patch also cleans up the error handling in the affected
message handlers to be consistent since it had to be touched anyway.
