This patch changes GRE and SIT to generate port unreachable instead of
protocol unreachable errors when we can't find a matching tunnel for a
packet.

This removes the ambiguity as to whether the error is caused by no
tunnel being found or by the lack of support for the given tunnel
type.

<title>[XFRM]: Fix SNAT-related crash in xfrm4_output_finish</title>

<id>48d5cad87c3a4998d0bda16ccfb5c60dfe4de5fb</id>
<content type='text'>
When a packet matching an IPsec policy is SNATed so it doesn't match any
policy anymore it looses its xfrm bundle, which makes xfrm4_output_finish
crash because of a NULL pointer dereference.

This patch directs these packets to the original output path instead. Since
the packets have already passed the POST_ROUTING hook, but need to start at
the beginning of the original output path which includes another
POST_ROUTING invocation, a flag is added to the IPCB to indicate that the
packet was rerouted and doesn't need to pass the POST_ROUTING hook again.

<title>[NETFILTER]: Fix xfrm lookup in ip_route_me_harder/ip6_route_me_harder</title>

ip_route_me_harder doesn't use the port numbers of the xfrm lookup and
uses ip_route_input for non-local addresses which doesn't do a xfrm
lookup, ip6_route_me_harder doesn't do a xfrm lookup at all.

Use xfrm_decode_session and do the lookup manually, make sure both
only do the lookup if the packet hasn't been transformed already.

Makeing sure the lookup only happens once needs a new field in the
IP6CB, which exceeds the size of skb-&gt;cb. The size of skb-&gt;cb is
increased to 48b. Apparently the IPv6 mobile extensions need some
more room anyway.

Reset IPSKB_XFRM_TUNNEL_SIZE flags in ipip and ip_gre hard_start_xmit
function before the packet reenters IP. This is neccessary so the
encapsulated packets are checked not to be oversized in xfrm4_output.c
again. Reset all flags in sit when a packet changes its address family.

Also remove some obsolete IPSKB flags.

Although the length pulled is offset bytes, the origin of the pulling
is the GRE header, not the IP header.

<title>[NET]: Detect hardware rx checksum faults correctly</title>
<updated>2005-11-10T21:01:24+00:00</updated>

<id>fb286bb2990a107009dbf25f6ffebeb7df77f9be</id>
<content type='text'>
Here is the patch that introduces the generic skb_checksum_complete
which also checks for hardware RX checksum faults.  If that happens,
it'll call netdev_rx_csum_fault which currently prints out a stack
trace with the device name.  In future it can turn off RX checksum.

I've converted every spot under net/ that does RX checksum checks to
use skb_checksum_complete or __skb_checksum_complete with the
exceptions of:

* Those places where checksums are done bit by bit.  These will call
netdev_rx_csum_fault directly.

* The following have not been completely checked/converted:

ipmr
ip_vs
netfilter
dccp

This patch is based on patches and suggestions from Stephen Hemminger
and David S. Miller.
