The cipso_v4_doi_search() function behaves the same as cipso_v4_doi_getdef()
but is a local, static function so use it whenever possibile in the CIPSOv4
code base.

The CIPSOv4 translated tag #1 mapping does not always return the correct error
code if the desired mapping does not exist; instead of returning -EPERM it
returns -ENOSPC indicating that the buffer is not large enough to hold the
translated value. This was caused by failing to check a specific error
condition. This patch fixes this so that unknown mappings return
-EPERM which is consistent with the rest of the related CIPSOv4 code.

While the original CIPSOv4 code had provisions for multiple tag types the
implementation was not as great as it could be, pushing a lot of non-tag
specific processing into the tag specific code blocks. This patch fixes that
issue making it easier to support multiple tag types in the future.

Currently the CIPSOv4 engine does not do any sort of checking when a new DOI
definition is added. The tags are still verified but only as a side effect of
normal NetLabel operation (packet processing, socket labeling, etc.) which
would cause application errors due to the faulty configuration. This patch
adds tag checking when new DOI definition are added allowing us to catch these
configuration problems when they happen.

Right now the NetLabel code always jumps into the CIPSOv4 layer to determine if
a CIPSO IP option is present. However, we can do this check directly in the
NetLabel code by making use of the CIPSO_V4_OPTEXIST() macro which should save
us a function call in the common case of not having a CIPSOv4 option present.

The existing netlbl_lsm_secattr struct required the LSM to check all of the
fields to determine if any security attributes were present resulting in a lot
of work in the common case of no attributes. This patch adds a 'flags' field
which is used to indicate which attributes are present in the structure; this
should allow the LSM to do a quick comparison to determine if the structure
holds any security attributes.
Example:
if (netlbl_lsm_secattr->flags)
/* security attributes present */
else
/* NO security attributes present */

This is a revision of the previously submitted patch, which alters
the way files are organized and compiled in the following manner:
* UDP and UDP-Lite now use separate object files
* source file dependencies resolved via header files
net/ipv{4,6}/udp_impl.h
* order of inclusion files in udp.c/udplite.c adapted
accordingly
[NET/IPv4]: Support for the UDP-Lite protocol (RFC 3828)
This patch adds support for UDP-Lite to the IPv4 stack, provided as an
extension to the existing UDPv4 code:
* generic routines are all located in net/ipv4/udp.c
* UDP-Lite specific routines are in net/ipv4/udplite.c
* MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/udplite
* shared API with extensions for partial checksum coverage
[NET/IPv6]: Extension for UDP-Lite over IPv6
It extends the existing UDPv6 code base with support for UDP-Lite
in the same manner as per UDPv4. In particular,
* UDPv6 generic and shared code is in net/ipv6/udp.c
* UDP-Litev6 specific extensions are in net/ipv6/udplite.c
* MIB/statistics support in /proc/net/snmp6 and /proc/net/udplite6
* support for IPV6_ADDRFORM
* aligned the coding style of protocol initialisation with af_inet6.c
* made the error handling in udpv6_queue_rcv_skb consistent;
to return `-1' on error on all error cases
* consolidation of shared code
[NET]: UDP-Lite Documentation and basic XFRM/Netfilter support
The UDP-Lite patch further provides
* API documentation for UDP-Lite
* basic xfrm support
* basic netfilter support for IPv4 and IPv6 (LOG target)

Throughout the TCP/DCCP (and tunnelling) code, it often happens that the
return code of a transmit function needs to be tested against NET_XMIT_CN
which is a value that does not indicate a strict error condition.
This patch uses a macro for these recurring situations which is consistent
with the already existing macro net_xmit_errno, saving on duplicated code.

This removes two redundancies:
1) The test (skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IPV6) in tcp_v6_init_sequence()
is always true, due to
* tcp_v6_conn_request() is the only function calling this one
* tcp_v6_conn_request() redirects all skb's with ETH_P_IP protocol to
tcp_v4_conn_request() [ cf. top of tcp_v6_conn_request()]
2) The first argument, `struct sock *sk' of tcp_v{4,6}_init_sequence() is
never used.

the skb_set_owner_w() just generates a lot of noise and

We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for
each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for
example)
On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small'
sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a
backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit.
This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter,
depending of :
- net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128)
- net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128)
- backlog value given by user application (2nd parameter of listen())
For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of
kmalloc().
We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn &
tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM
usage.

Now that all protocols have been made aware of the mark
field it can be moved out of the union thus simplyfing
its usage.
The config options in the IPv4/IPv6/DECnet subsystems
to enable respectively disable mark based routing only
obfuscate the code with ifdefs, the cost for the
additional comparison in the flow key is insignificant,
and most distributions have all these options enabled
by default anyway. Therefore it makes sense to remove
the config options and enable mark based routing by
default.
