once in ipip6_tunnel_init() and twice in sit_init_net(). This looks
redundant but its ndo_uinit() does not seem enough to clean up everything
here. So avoid this by setting dev-&gt;tstats to NULL after the first free,
at least for -net.

<title>netns: make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned int</title>

<content type='text'>
Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned.

There are 2 reasons to do so:

1)
This field is really an index into an zero based array and
thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound
access by definition.

2)
On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers
via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers
are preffered to signed 32-bit data.

"int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended
to 64-bit before being used.

	void f(long *p, int i)
	{
		g(p[i]);
	}

  roughly translates to

	movsx	rsi, esi
	mov	rdi, [rsi+...]
	call 	g

MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is
unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default.

Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses
"int" as an array index:

	static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id)
	{
		...
		ptr = ng-&gt;ptr[id - 1];
		...
	}

And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up.

Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk
messing with code generation):

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)

Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger.
This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register
allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable
needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX
prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be
used which is longer than [r8]

However, overall balance is in negative direction:

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)

Fixes the following sparse warning:

net/ipv6/sit.c:1129:6: warning:
 symbol 'ipip6_valid_ip_proto' was not declared. Should it be static?

<title>net: resolve symbol conflicts with generic hashtable.h</title>

This is a preparatory patch for converting qdisc linked list into a
hashtable. As we'll need to include hashtable.h in netdevice.h, we first
have to make sure that this will not introduce symbol conflicts for any of
the netdevice.h users.

Extend the SIT driver to support MPLS over IPv4. This implementation
extends existing support for IPv6 over IPv4 and IPv4 over IPv4.

Several cases of overlapping changes, except the packet scheduler
conflicts which deal with the addition of the free list parameter
to qdisc_enqueue().

<title>ipv6: RFC 4884 partial support for SIT/GRE tunnels</title>

<id>20e1954fe238dbe5f8d3a979e593fe352bd703cf</id>
<content type='text'>
When receiving an ICMPv4 message containing extensions as
defined in RFC 4884, and translating it to ICMPv6 at SIT
or GRE tunnel, we need some extra manipulation in order
to properly forward the extensions.

This patch only takes care of Time Exceeded messages as they
are the ones that typically carry information from various
routers in a fabric during a traceroute session.

It also avoids complex skb logic if the data_len is not
a multiple of 8.

RFC states :

   The "original datagram" field MUST contain at least 128 octets.
   If the original datagram did not contain 128 octets, the
   "original datagram" field MUST be zero padded to 128 octets.

In practice routers use 128 bytes of original datagram, not more.

Initial translation was added in commit ca15a078bd90
("sit: generate icmpv6 error when receiving icmpv4 error")

For better traceroute/mtr support for SIT and GRE tunnels,
we translate IPV4 ICMP ICMP_TIME_EXCEEDED to ICMPV6_TIME_EXCEED

We also have to translate the IPv4 source IP address of ICMP
message to IPv6 v4mapped.
