This change fixes a sparse warning triggered by casting the flowinfo from

Nicolas Dichtel d440b72068 sit: fix sparse warnings
This change fixes several sparse warnings about endianness problem. The wrong
nla_*() functions were used.
It also fix a sparse warning about a flag test (field i_flags). This field is
used in this file like a local flag only, so it is more an u16 (gre uses it as a
be16). This sparse warning was already there before the patch that add netlink
management, the code has just been moved.

Eric Dumazet e6c022a4fa tcp: better retrans tracking for defer-accept
For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility,
we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers
while no SYNACK is sent.

SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for
which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent
so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into
accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless
retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost)

TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary
retransmits.

Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields :

num_retrans : number of retransmit
num_timeout : number of timeouts

num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout,
regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to
compute the exponential timeout.

Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans
only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded.

Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans
when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN.
Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits.

Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS
only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

Alexey Kuznetsov 4c67525849 tcp: resets are misrouted
After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no
sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric.
Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for
dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we
actually cannot do anything here.  What's died that's died and correct
handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority.

Comment to comment:
> This has few benefits:
>   1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that.

It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a
mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well.

Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed
loss of resets.  As reported by Sergey Soloviev <sol@eqv.ru>, those
misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of
unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use
asymmetric routing.

It seems IPV6_GRO_CB(skb)->proto can be destroyed in skb_gro_receive()

We copy NAPI_GRO_CB() only (not the IPV6 specific part) in :

So we leave IPV6_GRO_CB(nskb)->proto to 0 (fresh skb allocation) instead
of IPPROTO_TCP (6)

ipv6_gro_complete() isnt able to call ops->gro_complete()
[ tcp6_gro_complete() ]

Fix this by moving proto in NAPI_GRO_CB() and getting rid of

Gao feng 6825a26c2d ipv6: release reference of ip6_null_entry's dst entry in __ip6_del_rt
as we hold dst_entry before we call __ip6_del_rt,
so we should alse call dst_release not only return
-ENOENT when the rt6_info is ip6_null_entry.

and we already hold the dst entry, so I think it's
safe to call dst_release out of the write-read lock.

Nicolas Dichtel 62b54dd915 ipv6: don't add link local route when there is no link local address
When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), a route
to fe80::/64 is added in the main table:
  unreachable fe80::/64 dev lo  proto kernel  metric 256  error -101

This route does not match any prefix (no fe80:: address on lo). In fact,
addrconf_dev_config() will not add link local address because this function
filters interfaces by type. If the link local address is added manually, the
route to the link local prefix will be automatically added by
addrconf_add_linklocal().
Note also, that this route is not deleted when the address is removed.

After looking at the code, it seems that addrconf_add_lroute() is redundant with
addrconf_add_linklocal(), because this function will add the link local route
when the link local address is configured.

Eric Dumazet 861b650101 tcp: gro: add checksuming helpers
skb with CHECKSUM_NONE cant currently be handled by GRO, and
we notice this deep in GRO stack in tcp[46]_gro_receive()

But there are cases where GRO can be a benefit, even with a lack
of checksums.

This preliminary work is needed to add GRO support
to tunnels.

Nicolas Dichtel 64c6d08e64 ipv6: del unreachable route when an addr is deleted on lo
When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), two routes
are added:
 - one in the local table:
    local 2002::1 via :: dev lo  proto none  metric 0
 - one the in main table (for the prefix):
    unreachable 2002::1 dev lo  proto kernel  metric 256  error -101

When the address is deleted, the route inserted in the main table remains
because we use rt6_lookup(), which returns NULL when dst->error is set, which
is the case here! Thus, it is better to use ip6_route_lookup() to avoid this
kind of filter.

Lin Ming 188c517a05 ipv6: return errno pointers consistently for fib6_add_1()
fib6_add_1() should consistently return errno pointers,
rather than a mixture of NULL and errno pointers.
