Alexei reported a performance regression on vxlan, caused
by commit 3347c96029 "ipv4: gso: make inet_gso_segment() stackable"
GSO vxlan packets were not properly segmented, adding IP fragments
while they were not expected.
Rename 'bool tunnel' to 'bool encap', and add a new boolean
to express the fact that UDP should be fragmented.
This fragmentation is triggered by skb->encapsulation being set.
Remove a "skb->encapsulation = 1" added in above commit,
as its not needed, as frags inherit skb->frag from original
GSO skb.

The transition from markov state "3 => lost packets within a burst
period" to "1 => successfully transmitted packets within a gap period"
has no *additional* loss event. The loss already happen for transition
from 1 -> 3, this additional loss will make things go wild.
E.g. transition probabilities:
p13: 10%
p31: 100%
Expected:
Ploss = p13 / (p13 + p31)
Ploss = ~9.09%
... but it isn't. Even worse: we get a double loss - each time.
So simple don't return true to indicate loss, rather break and return

Merge tag 'batman-adv-for-davem' of git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge
Antonio Quartulli says:
====================
this is another set of changes intended for net-next/linux-3.13.
(probably our last pull request for this cycle)
Patches 1 and 2 reshape two of our main data structures in a way that they can
easily be extended in the future to accommodate new routing protocols.
Patches from 3 to 9 improve our routing protocol API and its users so that all
the protocol-related code is not mixed up with the other components anymore.
Patch 10 limits the local Translation Table maximum size to a value such that it
can be fully transfered over the air if needed. This value depends on
fragmentation being enabled or not and on the mtu values.
Patch 11 makes batman-adv send a uevent in case of soft-interface destruction
while a "bat-Gateway" was configured (this informs userspace about the GW not
being available anymore).
Patches 13 and 14 enable the TT component to detect non-mesh client flag
changes at runtime (till now those flags where set upon client detection and
were not changed anymore).
Patch 16 is a generalisation of our user-to-kernel space communication (and
viceversa) used to exchange ICMP packets to send/received to/from the mesh
network. Now it can easily accommodate new ICMP packet types without breaking
the existing userspace API anymore.
Remaining patches are minor changes and cleanups.

Defer the fragmentation hash secret initialization for IPv6 like the

Because the netfilter logic reuses the hash secret we have to split it

Defer the generation of the first hash secret for the ipv4 fragmentation
cache as late as possible.
ip4_frags.rnd gets initial seeded by inet_frags_init and regulary
reseeded by inet_frag_secret_rebuild. Either we call ipqhashfn directly
from ip_fragment.c in which case we initialize the secret directly.
If we first get called by inet_frag_secret_rebuild we install a new secret
by a manual call to get_random_bytes. This secret will be overwritten
as soon as the first call to ipqhashfn happens. This is safe because we
won't race while publishing the new secrets with anyone else.

Instead of handling icmp packets only up to length of icmp_packet_rr,
the code should handle any icmp length size. Therefore the length
truncating is moved to when the packet is actually sent to userspace
(this does not support lengths longer than icmp_packet_rr yet). Longer
packets are forwarded without truncating.
This patch also cleans up some parts where the icmp header struct could
be used instead of other icmp_packet(_rr) structs to make the code more
readable.

Flags covered by TT_SYNC_MASK are kept in sync among the
nodes in the network and therefore they have to be
considered while computing the global/local table CRC.
In this way a generic originator is able to understand if
its table contains the correct flags or not.
Bits from 4 to 7 in the TT flags fields are now reserved for
"synchronized" flags only.
This allows future developers to add more flags of this type
without breaking compatibility.
It's important to note that not all the remote TT flags are
synchronised. This comes from the fact that some flags are
used to inject an information once only.

The local translation table size is limited by what can be
transferred from one node to another via a full table request.
The number of entries fitting into a full table request depend
on whether the fragmentation is enabled or not. Therefore this
patch introduces a max table size check and refuses to add
more local clients when that size is reached. Moreover, if the
max full table packet size changes (MTU change or fragmentation
is disabled) the local table is downsized instantaneously.

Such routines are then invoked by the code when needed,
without knowing which routing algorithm is currently in use

While this commit was a good attempt to fix issues occuring when no
multicast querier is present, this commit still has two more issues:
1) There are cases where mdb entries do not expire even if there is a
querier present. The bridge will unnecessarily continue flooding
multicast packets on the according ports.
2) Never removing an mdb entry could be exploited for a Denial of
Service by an attacker on the local link, slowly, but steadily eating up
all memory.
Actually, this commit became obsolete with
"bridge: disable snooping if there is no querier" (b00589af3b)
which included fixes for a few more cases.
Therefore reverting the following commits (the commit stated in the
commit message plus three of its follow up fixes):
====================
Revert "bridge: update mdb expiration timer upon reports."
This reverts commit f144febd93.
Revert "bridge: do not call setup_timer() multiple times"
This reverts commit 1faabf2aab.
Revert "bridge: fix some kernel warning in multicast timer"
This reverts commit c7e8e8a8f7.
Revert "bridge: only expire the mdb entry when query is received"
This reverts commit 9f00b2e7cf.

For passive TCP connections, upon receiving the ACK that completes the
3WHS, make sure we set our pacing rate after we get our first RTT
sample.
On passive TCP connections, when we receive the ACK completing the
3WHS we do not take an RTT sample in tcp_ack(), but rather in
tcp_synack_rtt_meas(). So upon receiving the ACK that completes the
3WHS, tcp_ack() leaves sk_pacing_rate at its initial value.
Originally the initial sk_pacing_rate value was 0, so passive-side
connections defaulted to sysctl_tcp_min_tso_segs (2 segs) in skbuffs
made in the first RTT. With a default initial cwnd of 10 packets, this
happened to be correct for RTTs 5ms or bigger, so it was hard to
see problems in WAN or emulated WAN testing.
Since 7eec4174ff ("pkt_sched: fq: fix non TCP flows pacing"), the
initial sk_pacing_rate is 0xffffffff. So after that change, passive
TCP connections were keeping this value (and using large numbers of
segments per skbuff) until receiving an ACK for data.

====================
this is another batch intended for net-next/linux-3.13.
This pull request is a bit bigger than usual, but 6 patches are very small
(three of them are about email updates)..
Patch 1 is fixing a previous merge conflict resolution that went wrong
(I realised that only now while checking other patches..).
Patches from 2 to 4 that are updating our emails in all the proper files
(Documentation/, headers and MAINTAINERS).
Patches 5, 6 and 7 are bringing a big improvement to the TranslationTable
component: it is now able to group non-mesh clients based on the VLAN they
belong to. In this way a lot a new enhancements are now possible thanks to the
fact that each batman-adv behaviour can be applied on a per VLAN basis.
And, of course, in patches from 8 to 12 you have some of the enhancements I was
talking about:
- make the batman-Gateway selection VLAN dependent
- make DAT (Distributed ARP Table) group ARP entries on a VLAN basis (this
allows DAT to work even when the admin decided to use the same IP subnet on
different VLANs)
- make the AP-Isolation behaviour switchable on each VLAN independently
- export VLAN specific attributes via sysfs. Switches like the AP-Isolation are
now exported once per VLAN (backward compatibility of the sysfs interface has
been preserved)
Patches 13 and 14 are small code cleanups.
Patch 15 is a minor improvement in the TT locking mechanism.
Patches 16 and 17 are other enhancements to the TT component. Those allow a
node to parse a "non-mesh client announcement message" and accept only those
TT entries belonging to certain VLANs.
Patch 18 exploits this parse&accept mechanism to make the Bridge Loop Avoidance
component reject only TT entries connected to the VLAN where it is operating.
Previous to this change, BLA was rejecting all the entries coming from any other
Backbone node, regardless of the VLAN (for more details about how the Bridge
Loop Avoidance works please check [1]).
