fa84309533 genetlink: add auto module loading
When testing L2TP support, I discovered that the l2tp module is not autoloaded
as are other netlink interfaces. There is because of lack of hook in genetlink to call
request_module and load the module.

7ffbcecbee ipv6: Remove optimistic DAD flag test in ipv6_add_addr()
The route we have here is for the address being added to the interface,
ie. for input packet processing.

Therefore using that route to determine whether an output nexthop gateway
is known and resolved doesn't make any sense.

So, simply remove this test, it never triggered anyways.

3655959143 tipc: Ignore broadcast acknowledgements that are out-of-range
Adds checks to TIPC's broadcast link so that it ignores any
acknowledgement message containing a sequence number that does not
correspond to an unacknowledged message currently in the broadcast
link's transmit queue.

This change prevents the broadcast link from becoming stalled if a
newly booted node receives stale broadcast link acknowledgement
information from another node that has not yet fully synchronized
its end of the broadcast link to reflect the current state of the
new node's end.

Creates global variables to hold the broadcast link's pseudo-bearer and
pseudo-link structures, rather than allocating them dynamically. There

Reworks TIPC's media address data structure and associated processing
routines to transfer all media-specific details of address conversion
to the associated TIPC media adaptation code. TIPC's generic bearer code
now only needs to know which media type an address is associated with

operations and will make it easier for TIPC to support new media types

9413902796 netfilter: add extended accounting infrastructure over nfnetlink
We currently have two ways to account traffic in netfilter:

- iptables chain and rule counters:

 # iptables -L -n -v
Chain INPUT (policy DROP 3 packets, 867 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination
    8  1104 ACCEPT     all  --  lo     *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0

- use flow-based accounting provided by ctnetlink:

 # conntrack -L
tcp      6 431999 ESTABLISHED src=192.168.1.130 dst=212.106.219.168 sport=58152 dport=80 packets=47 bytes=7654 src=212.106.219.168 dst=192.168.1.130 sport=80 dport=58152 packets=49 bytes=66340 [ASSURED] mark=0 use=1

While trying to display real-time accounting statistics, we require
to pool the kernel periodically to obtain this information. This is
OK if the number of flows is relatively low. However, in case that
the number of flows is huge, we can spend a considerable amount of
cycles to iterate over the list of flows that have been obtained.

Moreover, if we want to obtain the sum of the flow accounting results
that match some criteria, we have to iterate over the whole list of
existing flows, look for matchings and update the counters.

This patch adds the extended accounting infrastructure for
nfnetlink which aims to allow displaying real-time traffic accounting
without the need of complicated and resource-consuming implementation
in user-space. Basically, this new infrastructure allows you to create
accounting objects. One accounting object is composed of packet and
byte counters.

In order to manipulate create accounting objects, you require the
new libnetfilter_acct library. It contains several examples of use:

libnetfilter_acct/examples# ./nfacct-add http-traffic
libnetfilter_acct/examples# ./nfacct-get
http-traffic = { pkts = 000000000000,   bytes = 000000000000 };

Then, you can use one of this accounting objects in several iptables
rules using the new nfacct match (which comes in a follow-up patch):

 # iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --sport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic
 # iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic

The idea is simple: if one packet matches the rule, the nfacct match
updates the counters.

providing feedback for this contribution.

0354b48f63 netfilter: xt_connbytes: handle negation correctly
"! --connbytes 23:42" should match if the packet/byte count is not in range.

As there is no explict "invert match" toggle in the match structure,
userspace swaps the from and to arguments
(i.e., as if "--connbytes 42:23" were given).

However, "what <= 23 && what >= 42" will always be false.

Change things so we use "||" in case "from" is larger than "to".

This change may look like it breaks backwards compatibility when "to" is 0.
However, older iptables binaries will refuse "connbytes 42:0",
and current releases treat it to mean "! --connbytes 0:42",
so we should be fine.

b9e61f0dff netfilter: ctnetlink: remove dead NAT code
The NAT range to nlattr conversation callbacks and helpers are entirely
dead code and are also useless since there are no NAT ranges in conntrack
context, they are only used for initially selecting a tuple. The final NAT
information is contained in the selected tuples of the conntrack entry.

0af051baa8 netfilter: nf_nat: remove obsolete check in nf_nat_mangle_udp_packet()
The packet size check originates from a time when UDP helpers could
accidentally mangle incorrect packets (NEWNAT) and is unnecessary
nowadays since the conntrack helpers invoke the NAT helpers for the
proper packet directly.

40cfb706cd netfilter: nf_nat: remove obsolete code from nf_nat_icmp_reply_translation()
The inner tuple that is extracted from the packet is unused. The code also
doesn't have any useful side-effects like verifying the packet does contain
enough data to extract the inner tuple since conntrack already does the
same, so remove it.

d70308f78b netfilter: nat: remove module reference counting from NAT protocols
The only remaining user of NAT protocol module reference counting is NAT
ctnetlink support. Since this is a fairly short sequence of code, convert
over to use RCU and remove module reference counting.

Module unregistration is already protected by RCU using synchronize_rcu(),
so no further changes are necessary.

Use nf_conntrack_hash_rnd in NAT bysource hash to avoid hash chain attacks.
