<content type='text'>
Enable setting skb-&gt;mark for UDP and RAW sockets using cmsg.

This is analogous to existing support for TOS, TTL, txtime, etc.

Packet sockets already support this as of commit c7d39e32632e
("packet: support per-packet fwmark for af_packet sendmsg").

Similar to other fields, implement by
1. initialize the sockcm_cookie.mark from socket option sk_mark
2. optionally overwrite this in ip_cmsg_send/ip6_datagram_send_ctl
3. initialize inet_cork.mark from sockcm_cookie.mark
4. initialize each (usually just one) skb-&gt;mark from inet_cork.mark

Step 1 is handled in one location for most protocols by ipcm_init_sk
as of commit 351782067b6b ("ipv4: ipcm_cookie initializers").

Currently, procfs socket stats format sk_drops as a signed int (%d). For large
values this will cause a negative number to be printed.

We know the drop count can never be a negative so change the format specifier to
%u.

<title>ipv4: Allow sending multicast packets on specific i/f using VRF socket</title>

It is useful to be able to use the same socket for listening in a
specific VRF, as for sending multicast packets out of a specific
interface. However, the bound device on the socket currently takes
precedence and results in the packets not being sent.

Relax the condition on overriding the output interface to use for
sending packets out of UDP, raw and ping sockets to allow multicast
packets to be sent using the specified multicast interface.

The construction "net-&gt;ipv4.sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind || inet-&gt;freebind
|| inet-&gt;transparent" is present three times and its IPv6 counterpart
is also present three times. We introduce two small helpers to
characterize these tests uniformly.

<title>ip: remove tx_flags from ipcm_cookie and use same logic for v4 and v6</title>

<content type='text'>
skb_shinfo(skb)-&gt;tx_flags is derived from sk-&gt;sk_tsflags, possibly
after modification by __sock_cmsg_send, by calling sock_tx_timestamp.

The IPv4 and IPv6 paths do this conversion differently. In IPv4, the
individual protocols that support tx timestamps call this function
and store the result in ipc.tx_flags. In IPv6, sock_tx_timestamp is
called in __ip6_append_data.

There is no need to store both tx_flags and ts_flags in the cookie
as one is derived from the other. Convert when setting up the cork
and remove the redundant field. This is similar to IPv6, only have
the conversion happen only once per datagram, in ip(6)_setup_cork.

Also change __ip6_append_data to match __ip_append_data. Only update
tskey if timestamping is enabled with OPT_ID. The SOCK_.. test is
redundant: only valid protocols can have non-zero cork-&gt;tx_flags.

After this change the IPv4 and IPv6 logic is the same.

Add a transmit_time field to struct inet_cork, then copy the
timestamp from the CMSG cookie at ip_setup_cork() so we can
safely copy it into the skb later during __ip_make_skb().

For the raw fast path, just perform the copy at raw_send_hdrinc().
