08911475d1 netfilter: nf_conntrack: generalize nf_ct_l4proto_net
This patch generalizes nf_ct_l4proto_net by splitting it into chunks and
moving the corresponding protocol part to where it really belongs to.

To clarify, note that we follow two different approaches to support per-net
depending if it's built-in or run-time loadable protocol tracker.

f28997e27a netfilter: nf_conntrack: add nf_ct_kfree_compat_sysctl_table
This patch is a cleanup.

It adds nf_ct_kfree_compat_sysctl_table to release l4proto's
compat sysctl table and set the compat sysctl table point to NULL.

This new function will be used by follow-up patches.

32bad7e30f mac802154: add wpan device-class support
Every real 802.15.4 transceiver, which works with software MAC layer,
can be classified as a wpan device in this stack. So the wpan device
implementation provides missing link in datapath between the device
drivers and the Linux network queue.

According to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard each packet can be one of the
following types:
 - beacon
 - MAC layer command
 - ACK
 - data

This patch adds support for the data packet-type only, but this is
enough to perform data transmission and receiving over radio.

6648bd7e0e ipv4: Add sysctl knob to control early socket demux
This change is meant to add a control for disabling early socket demux.
The main motivation behind this patch is to provide an option to disable
the feature as it adds an additional cost to routing that reduces overall
throughput by up to 5%.  For example one of my systems went from 12.1Mpps
to 11.6 after the early socket demux was added.  It looks like the reason
for the regression is that we are now having to perform two lookups, first
the one for an established socket, and then the one for the routing table.

By adding this patch and toggling the value for ip_early_demux to 0 I am
able to get back to the 12.1Mpps I was previously seeing.

41063e9dd1 ipv4: Early TCP socket demux.
Input packet processing for local sockets involves two major demuxes.
One for the route and one for the socket.

But we can optimize this down to one demux for certain kinds of local
sockets.

Currently we only do this for established TCP sockets, but it could
at least in theory be expanded to other kinds of connections.

If a TCP socket is established then it's identity is fully specified.

This means that whatever input route was used during the three-way
handshake must work equally well for the rest of the connection since
the keys will not change.

Once we move to established state, we cache the receive packet's input
route to use later.

Like the existing cached route in sk->sk_dst_cache used for output
packets, we have to check for route invalidations using dst->obsolete
and dst->ops->check().

Early demux occurs outside of a socket locked section, so when a route
invalidation occurs we defer the fixup of sk->sk_rx_dst until we are
actually inside of established state packet processing and thus have
the socket locked.

	the old one with a new implementation. Besides that we had
	lot of coding style fixes (to follow net rules), more l2cap
	core separation from socket and many clean ups and fixed all
	over the tree.

Along with the above, there is a healthy dose of ath9k, iwlwifi,
and other driver updates.  There is also another pull from the
wireless tree to resolve some merge issues.  I also fixed-up some
merge discrepencies between net-next and wireless-next.

12f7a50533 netfilter: add user-space connection tracking helper infrastructure
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.

For locally generated packets:

 iptables -I OUTPUT -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp

For non-locally generated packets:

 iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp

3) Run the test conntrackd in helper mode (see example files under
   doc/helper/conntrackd.conf

 conntrackd

4) Generate FTP traffic going, if everything is OK, then conntrackd
   should create expectations (you can check that with `conntrack':

 conntrack -E expect

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.

8c88f87cb2 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

By now, we only support TCP since we have no helpers for DCCP or SCTP.
Better to add this if we ever have some helper over those layer 4 protocols.

9cb0176654 netfilter: add glue code to integrate nfnetlink_queue and ctnetlink
This patch allows you to include the conntrack information together
with the packet that is sent to user-space via NFQUEUE.

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.

1afc56794e netfilter: nf_ct_helper: implement variable length helper private data
This patch uses the new variable length conntrack extensions.

Instead of using union nf_conntrack_help that contain all the
helper private data information, we allocate variable length
area to store the private helper data.

This patch includes the modification of all existing helpers.
It also includes a couple of include header to avoid compilation
warnings.

We can now define conntrack extensions of variable size. This
patch is useful to get rid of these unions:

union nf_conntrack_help
union nf_conntrack_proto
union nf_conntrack_nat_help

3a8fc53a45 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.
