Pull VFS updates from Al Viro,

Misc cleanups all over the place, mainly wrt /proc interfaces (switch
create_proc_entry to proc_create(), get rid of the deprecated
create_proc_read_entry() in favor of using proc_create_data() and
seq_file etc).

7kloc removed.

sctp: Correct type and usage of sctp_end_cksum()

2013-04-29T18:09:08+00:00

Change the type of the crc32 parameter of sctp_end_cksum()
from __be32 to __u32 to reflect that fact that it is passed
to cpu_to_le32().

There are five in-tree users of sctp_end_cksum().
The following four had warnings flagged by sparse which are
no longer present with this change.

net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_proto_sctp.c:sctp_nat_csum()
net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_proto_sctp.c:sctp_csum_check()
net/sctp/input.c:sctp_rcv_checksum()
net/sctp/output.c:sctp_packet_transmit()

The fifth user is net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt().
It has been updated to pass a __u32 instead of a __be32,
the value in question was already calculated in cpu byte-order.

net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt() has also
been updated to assign the return value of sctp_end_cksum()
directly to a variable of type __le32, matching the
type of the return value. Previously the return value
was assigned to a variable of type __be32 and then that variable
was finally assigned to another variable of type __le32.

Problems flagged by sparse.
Compile and sparse tested only.

netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: avoid expensive gso segmentation and checksum fixup

2013-04-29T18:09:07+00:00

packets and packets that have invalid ipv4/tcp checksums.

netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: add skb info attribute

2013-04-29T18:09:06+00:00

Once we allow userspace to receive gso/gro packets, userspace
needs to be able to determine when checksums appear to be
broken, but are not.

NFQA_SKB_CSUMNOTREADY means 'checksums will be fixed in kernel
later, pretend they are ok'.

NFQA_SKB_GSO could be used for statistics, or to determine when
packet size exceeds mtu.

netfilter: move skb_gso_segment into nfnetlink_queue module

2013-04-29T18:09:05+00:00

skb_gso_segment is expensive, so it would be nice if we could
avoid it in the future. However, userspace needs to be prepared
to receive larger-than-mtu-packets (which will also have incorrect
l3/l4 checksums), so we cannot simply remove it.

The plan is to add a per-queue feature flag that userspace can
set when binding the queue.

The problem is that in nf_queue, we only have a queue number,
not the queue context/configuration settings.

This patch should have no impact other than the skb_gso_segment
call now being in a function that has access to the queue config
data.

A new size attribute in nf_queue_entry is needed so
nfnetlink_queue can duplicate the entry of the gso skb
when segmenting the skb while also copying the route key.

The follow up patch adds switch to disable skb_gso_segment when
queue config says so.
