Eric Dumazet ba89966c19 [NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section
(read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without
memory ping pongs.

On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a
heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a
reload.

Herbert Xu 72cb6962a9 [IPSEC]: Add xfrm_init_state
This patch adds xfrm_init_state which is simply a wrapper that calls
xfrm_get_type and subsequently x->type->init_state.  It also gets rid
of the unused args argument.

Abstracting it out allows us to add common initialisation code, e.g.,
to set family-specific flags.

The add_time setting in xfrm_user.c was deleted because it's already
set by xfrm_state_alloc.

Herbert Xu 4666faab09 [IPSEC] Kill spurious hard expire messages
This patch ensures that the hard state/policy expire notifications are
only sent when the state/policy is successfully removed from their
respective tables.

As it is, it's possible for a state/policy to both expire through
reaching a hard limit, as well as being deleted by the user.

Note that this behaviour isn't actually forbidden by RFC 2367.
However, it is a quality of implementation issue.

As an added bonus, the restructuring in this patch will help
eventually in moving the expire notifications from softirq
context into process context, thus improving their reliability.

One important side-effect from this change is that SAs reaching
their hard byte/packet limits are now deleted immediately, just
like SAs that have reached their hard time limits.

Previously they were announced immediately but only deleted after
30 seconds.

This is bad because it prevents the system from issuing an ACQUIRE
command until the existing state was deleted by the user or expires
after the time is up.

In the scenario where the expire notification was lost this introduces
a 30 second delay into the system for no good reason.

Herbert Xu aabc9761b6 [IPSEC]: Store idev entries
I found a bug that stopped IPsec/IPv6 from working.  About
a month ago IPv6 started using rt6i_idev->dev on the cached socket dst
entries.  If the cached socket dst entry is IPsec, then rt6i_idev will
be NULL.

Since we want to look at the rt6i_idev of the original route in this
case, the easiest fix is to store rt6i_idev in the IPsec dst entry just
as we do for a number of other IPv6 route attributes.  Unfortunately
this means that we need some new code to handle the references to
rt6i_idev.  That's why this patch is bigger than it would otherwise be.

I've also done the same thing for IPv4 since it is conceivable that
once these idev attributes start getting used for accounting, we
probably need to dereference them for IPv4 IPsec entries too.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
