(Dropped the infiniband part, because Tetsuo modified the related code,
I will send a separate patch for it once this is accepted.)

This patch introduces /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_reserved_ports which
allows users to reserve ports for third-party applications.

The reserved ports will not be used by automatic port assignments
(e.g. when calling connect() or bind() with port number 0). Explicit
port allocation behavior is unchanged.

<title>net: sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversion</title>

<content type='text'>
sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk-&gt;sk_sleep pointer, so we
need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming
packet.

RCU conversion is pretty much needed :

1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields
that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a
wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer).

[Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing]

2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in
sock_alloc_inode().

3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq"

4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct
socket_wq"

5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk-&gt;sk_wq instead of
sk-&gt;sk_sleep

6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside
a rcu_read_lock() section.

7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to :
  - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)
  - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks.
  - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&amp;sk-&gt;sk_callback_lock)

8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well.

9) Exceptions :
  macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq"
instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing.

Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible
sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).

<title>sctp: avoid irq lock inversion while call sk-&gt;sk_data_ready()</title>

sk-&gt;sk_data_ready() of sctp socket can be called from both BH and non-BH
contexts, but the default sk-&gt;sk_data_ready(), sock_def_readable(), can
not be used in this case. Therefore, we have to make a new function
sctp_data_ready() to grab sk-&gt;sk_data_ready() with BH disabling.

=========================================================
[ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
2.6.33-rc6 #129
---------------------------------------------------------
sctp_darn/1517 just changed the state of lock:
 (clock-AF_INET){++.?..}, at: [&lt;c06aab60&gt;] sock_def_readable+0x20/0x80
but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
 (slock-AF_INET){+.-...}

and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by sctp_darn/1517:
 #0:  (sk_lock-AF_INET){+.+.+.}, at: [&lt;cdfe363d&gt;] sctp_sendmsg+0x23d/0xc00 [sctp]

<title>net: sk_add_backlog() take rmem_alloc into account</title>

<content type='text'>
Current socket backlog limit is not enough to really stop DDOS attacks,
because user thread spend many time to process a full backlog each
round, and user might crazy spin on socket lock.

We should add backlog size and receive_queue size (aka rmem_alloc) to
pace writers, and let user run without being slow down too much.

Introduce a sk_rcvqueues_full() helper, to avoid taking socket lock in
stress situations.

Under huge stress from a multiqueue/RPS enabled NIC, a single flow udp
receiver can now process ~200.000 pps (instead of ~100 pps before the
patch) on a 8 core machine.

Define a new function to return the waitqueue of a "struct sock".

static inline wait_queue_head_t *sk_sleep(struct sock *sk)
{
	return sk-&gt;sk_sleep;
}

Change all read occurrences of sk_sleep by a call to this function.

Needed for a future RCU conversion. sk_sleep wont be a field directly
available.
