<title>net: Add compat ioctl support for the ipv4 multicast ioctl SIOCGETSGCNT</title>

<id>709b46e8d90badda1898caea50483c12af178e96</id>
<content type='text'>
SIOCGETSGCNT is not a unique ioctl value as it it maps tio SIOCPROTOPRIVATE +1,
which unfortunately means the existing infrastructure for compat networking
ioctls is insufficient.  A trivial compact ioctl implementation would conflict
with:

SIOCAX25ADDUID
SIOCAIPXPRISLT
SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
SIOCGETSGCNT
SIOCRSSCAUSE
SIOCX25SSUBSCRIP
SIOCX25SDTEFACILITIES

To make this work I have updated the compat_ioctl decode path to mirror the
the normal ioctl decode path.  I have added an ipv4 inet_compat_ioctl function
so that I can have ipv4 specific compat ioctls.   I have added a compat_ioctl
function into struct proto so I can break out ioctls by which kind of ip socket
I am using.  I have added a compat_raw_ioctl function because SIOCGETSGCNT only
works on raw sockets.  I have added a ipmr_compat_ioctl that mirrors the normal
ipmr_ioctl.

This was necessary because unfortunately the struct layout for the SIOCGETSGCNT
has unsigned longs in it so changes between 32bit and 64bit kernels.

This change was sufficient to run a 32bit ip multicast routing daemon on a
64bit kernel.

Special care is taken inside sk_port_alloc to avoid overwriting
skc_node/skc_nulls_node. We should also avoid overwriting
skc_bind_node/skc_portaddr_node.

The patch fixes the following crash:

<title>net: optimize INET input path further</title>

<id>68835aba4d9b74e2f94106d13b6a4bddc447c4c8</id>
<content type='text'>
Followup of commit b178bb3dfc30 (net: reorder struct sock fields)

Optimize INET input path a bit further, by :

1) moving sk_refcnt close to sk_lock.

This reduces number of dirtied cache lines by one on 64bit arches (and
64 bytes cache line size).

2) moving inet_daddr &amp; inet_rcv_saddr at the beginning of sk

(same cache line than hash / family / bound_dev_if / nulls_node)

This reduces number of accessed cache lines in lookups by one, and dont
increase size of inet and timewait socks.
inet and tw sockets now share same place-holder for these fields.

Before patch :

offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x10
offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x40
offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x60
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x270
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x274

After patch :

offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x44
offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x48
offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x68
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x0
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x4

compute_score() (udp or tcp) now use a single cache line per ignored
item, instead of two.
