In 13ee6ac netfilter: fix race in conntrack between dump_table and
destroy, we recovered spinlocks to protect the dump of the conntrack
table according to reports from Stephen and acknowledgments on the
issue from Eric.
In that patch, the refcount bump that allows to keep a reference
to the current ct object was removed. However, we still decrement
the refcount for that object in the output path of
ctnetlink_dump_table():

When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback
interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a
printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set.
This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as
part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of
vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless
"lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg.
It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the
use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most
sensible solution.

After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need
anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters.
Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan :
1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters.
2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the
dev->stats.tx_dropped counter.
3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b8f (Use net_device internal stats)
Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long"
fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats)
4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold
tx_bytes/tx_packets
This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget,
calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

There's a problem in net/batman-adv/unicast.c::frag_send_skb().
dev_alloc_skb() allocates memory and may fail, thus returning NULL. If
this happens we'll pass a NULL pointer on to skb_split() which in turn
hands it to skb_split_inside_header() from where it gets passed to
skb_put() that lets skb_tail_pointer() play with it and that function
dereferences it. And thus the bat dies.
While I was at it I also moved the call to dev_alloc_skb() above the
assignment to 'unicast_packet' since there's no reason to do that
assignment if the memory allocation fails.

The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race
when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash
and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a
conntrack entry was being destroyed.
(see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402).
According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader
must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed
further down the linked list. The old code would continue
which caused the scan to walk into the free list.
This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which
is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while
doing dump operation.

satisfying a set of conditions :
1) Current (to be bound) socket doesnt have sk_reuse set

2) other socket doesnt have sk_reuse set

3) other socket is in LISTEN state
We should add the CLOSE state in the 3) condition, in order to avoid two

this can deny further operations.

netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(),
so it only concerns itself with GSO features. However, several other
places also should take into account the contents of the packet when
deciding whether to offload to hardware. This generalizes the function
to return features about all of the various forms of offloading. Since
offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic
in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum
logic).

We currently only have software fallback for one type of checksum: the
TCP/UDP one's complement. This means that a protocol that uses hardware
offloading for a different type of checksum (FCoE, SCTP) must directly
check the device's features and do the right thing ahead of time. By
the time we get to dev_can_checksum(), we're only deciding whether to
apply the one algorithm in software or hardware. NETIF_F_HW_CSUM has the
same capabilities as the software version, so we should always use it if
present. The primary advantage of this is multiply tagged vlans can use
hardware checksumming.

The problem that this patch aims to fix is vfsmount refcounting scalability.
We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup,
which often go to the same mount point.
The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made
scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that
was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs
that may have taken a reference count.
We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping
distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less
frequently.
- check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection
for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts).
- keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this
is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of
a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a
particular CPU which requires more locking).
- keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum
the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then,
keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references,
and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0.
This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root
and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is
a short reference.
This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted
subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running
in them.
This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a
per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock
and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger
and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash.
