netfilter: nf_ct_helper: disable automatic helper re-assignment of different type
This patch modifies __nf_ct_try_assign_helper in a way that invalidates support
for the following scenario:
1) attach the helper A for first time when the conntrack is created
2) attach new (different) helper B due to changes the reply tuple caused by NAT
eg. port redirection from TCP/21 to TCP/5060 with both FTP and SIP helpers
loaded, which seems to be a quite unorthodox scenario.
I can provide a more elaborated patch to support this scenario but explicit
helper attachment provides a better solution for this since now the use can
attach the helpers consistently, without relying on the automatic helper
lookup magic.
This patch fixes a possible out of bound zeroing of the conntrack helper
extension if the helper B uses more memory for its private data than
helper A.

Smatch complaint:
net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_netlink.c:1231 ctnetlink_change_helper()
error: we previously assumed 'help->helper' could be null (see line 1228)
This NULL dereference can be triggered with the following sequence:
1) attach the helper for first time when the conntrack is created.
2) remove the helper module or detach the helper from the conntrack
via ctnetlink.
3) attach helper again (the same or different one, no matter) to the
that existing conntrack again via ctnetlink.
This patch fixes the problem by removing the use case that allows you
to re-assign again a helper for one conntrack entry via ctnetlink since
I cannot find any practical use for it.

This is the second batch of Netfilter updates for net-next. It contains the
kernel changes for the new user-space connection tracking helper
infrastructure.
More details on this infrastructure are provides here:
http://lwn.net/Articles/500196/
Still, I plan to provide some official documentation through the
conntrack-tools user manual on how to setup user-space utilities for this.

Oracle/SQLnet/TNS. Yet in my TODO list.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
There are good reasons to supports helpers in user-space instead:
* Rapid connection tracking helper development, as developing code
in user-space is usually faster.
* Reliability: A buggy helper does not crash the kernel. Moreover,
we can monitor the helper process and restart it in case of problems.
* Security: Avoid complex string matching and mangling in kernel-space
running in privileged mode. Going further, we can even think about
running user-space helpers as a non-root process.
* Extensibility: It allows the development of very specific helpers (most
likely non-standard proprietary protocols) that are very likely not to be
accepted for mainline inclusion in the form of kernel-space connection
tracking helpers.
This patch adds the infrastructure to allow the implementation of
user-space conntrack helpers by means of the new nfnetlink subsystem
`nfnetlink_cthelper' and the existing queueing infrastructure
(nfnetlink_queue).
I had to add the new hook NF_IP6_PRI_CONNTRACK_HELPER to register
ipv[4|6]_helper which results from splitting ipv[4|6]_confirm into
two pieces. This change is required not to break NAT sequence
adjustment and conntrack confirmation for traffic that is enqueued
to our user-space conntrack helpers.
Basic operation, in a few steps:
1) Register user-space helper by means of `nfct':
nfct helper add ftp inet tcp
[ It must be a valid existing helper supported by conntrack-tools ]
2) Add rules to enable the FTP user-space helper which is
used to track traffic going to TCP port 21.
This confirms that our test helper is receiving packets including the
conntrack information, and adding expectations in kernel-space.
The user-space helper can also store its private tracking information
in the conntrack structure in the kernel via the CTA_HELP_INFO. The
kernel will consider this a binary blob whose layout is unknown. This
information will be included in the information that is transfered
to user-space via glue code that integrates nfnetlink_queue and
ctnetlink.

netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: add NAT TCP sequence adjustment if packet mangled
User-space programs that receive traffic via NFQUEUE may mangle packets.
If NAT is enabled, this usually puzzles sequence tracking, leading to
traffic disruptions.
With this patch, nfnl_queue will make the corresponding NAT TCP sequence
adjustment if:
1) The packet has been mangled,
2) the NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK flag has been set, and
3) NAT is detected.
There are some records on the Internet complaning about this issue:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/260757/packet-mangling-utilities-besides-iptables

netfilter: add glue code to integrate nfnetlink_queue and ctnetlink
This patch allows you to include the conntrack information together

Previously, there was no integration between ctnetlink and
nfnetlink_queue. If you wanted to access conntrack information
from your libnetfilter_queue program, you required to query
ctnetlink from user-space to obtain it. Thus, delaying the packet
processing even more.
Including the conntrack information is optional, you can set it
via NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK flag with the new NFQA_CFG_FLAGS attribute.

netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allocate 16 bytes for the helper and policy names
This patch modifies the struct nf_conntrack_helper to allocate
the room for the helper name. The maximum length is 16 bytes
(this was already introduced in 2.6.24).
For the maximum length for expectation policy names, I have
also selected 16 bytes.
This patch is required by the follow-up patch to support
user-space connection tracking helpers.

ipv6: Prevent access to uninitialized fib_table_hash via /proc/net/ipv6_route
/proc/net/ipv6_route reflects the contents of fib_table_hash. The proc
handler is installed in ip6_route_net_init() whereas fib_table_hash is
allocated in fib6_net_init() _after_ the proc handler has been installed.
This opens up a short time frame to access fib_table_hash with its pants
down.
fib6_init() as a whole can't be moved to an earlier position as it also
registers the rtnetlink message handlers which should be registered at
the end. Therefore split it into fib6_init() which is run early and
fib6_init_late() to register the rtnetlink message handlers.

net: remove skb_orphan_try()
Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior
unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets
pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full
qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically
throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming
sk_sndbuf is not too big)
We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in
dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain,
now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked
in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance
matters.

bnx2x: fix panic when TX ring is full
There is a off by one error in the minimal number of BD in

A full size GSO packet, with data included in skb->head really needs
(MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 4) BDs, because of bnx2x_tx_split()
This error triggers if BQL is disabled and heavy TCP transmit traffic
occurs.
bnx2x_tx_split() definitely can be called, remove a wrong comment.

ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts
to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order
whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order.
Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions. One for when we
have a socket context and one for when we do not.
ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events
by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to
the original sender.
This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc(). It handles all
kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU
update directly using a fully resolved route.
In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very
likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check. We should never
have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there.
Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in
ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error
handlers. This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context
where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU
update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached
socket route.

ipv4: Handle PMTU in all ICMP error handlers.
With ip_rt_frag_needed() removed, we have to explicitly update PMTU
information in every ICMP error handler.
Create two helper functions to facilitate this.
1) ipv4_sk_update_pmtu()
This updates the PMTU when we have a socket context to
work with.
2) ipv4_update_pmtu()
Raw version, used when no socket context is available. For this
interface, we essentially just pass in explicit arguments for
the flow identity information we would have extracted from the
socket.
And you'll notice that ipv4_sk_update_pmtu() is simply implemented
in terms of ipv4_update_pmtu()
Note that __ip_route_output_key() is used, rather than something like
ip_route_output_flow() or ip_route_output_key(). This is because we
absolutely do not want to end up with a route that does IPSEC
encapsulation and the like. Instead, we only want the route that
would get us to the node described by the outermost IP header.
