I believe this commit from 2008 was incorrect:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commitdiff;h=398bcbebb6f721ac308df1e3d658c0029bb74503
When CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF is disabled, the kernel should follow
RFC4861 section 6.3.6: if no route is NUD_VALID, then traffic should be
sprayed across all routers (indirectly triggering NUD) until one of them
becomes NUD_VALID.
However, the following experiment demonstrates that this does not work:
1) Connect to an IPv6 network.
2) Change the router's MAC (and link-local) address.
The kernel will lock onto the first router and never try the new one, even
if the first becomes unreachable. This patch fixes the problem by
allowing rt6_check_neigh() to return 0; if all routers return 0, then
rt6_select() will fall back to round-robin behavior.
This patch should have no effect when CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTER_PREF=y.
Note that rt6_check_neigh() is only used in a boolean context, so I've
changed its return type accordingly.

Historically tun supported two modes of operation:
- in default mode, a small number of packets would get queued
at the device, the rest would be queued in qdisc
- in one queue mode, all packets would get queued at the device
This might have made sense up to a point where we made the
queue depth for both modes the same and set it to
a huge value (500) so unless the consumer
is stuck the chance of losing packets is small.
Thus in practice both modes behave the same, but the
default mode has some problems:
- if packets are never consumed, fragments are never orphaned
which cases a DOS for sender using zero copy transmit
- overrun errors are hard to diagnose: fifo error is incremented
only once so you can not distinguish between
userspace that is stuck and a transient failure,
tcpdump on the device does not show any traffic
Userspace solves this simply by enabling IFF_ONE_QUEUE
but there seems to be little point in not doing the
right thing for everyone, by default.

if Router Advertisements are accepted
As of 026359b [ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are accepted],
Router Solicitations are sent whenever kernel accepts Router
Advertisements on the interface.
However, this logic isn't reflected in 'addrconf_rs_timer'.
The timer fails to issue subsequent RS messages (and fails to re-arm
itself) if forwarding is enabled and the special hybrid mode is
enabled (accept_ra=2).
Fix the condition determining whether next RS should be sent, by using
'ipv6_accept_ra()'.

The cleanup sequence in sky2_probe() that is called in case of an error is
mixed up in different places:
- pci_disable_device() is not called in each case the device has been enabled
before
- same for pci_disable_msi(): test_msi() may return with an error != EOPNOTSUPP
(due to failure of request_irq()). In that case msi is not disabled
- also failure of register_netdev() does not disable msi
This patch fixes the concerning parts.

The 8139cp driver has a change_mtu function that has not been
enabled since the dawn of the git repository. However, the
generic eth_change_mtu is not used in its place, so that
invalid MTU values can be set on the interface.
Original patch salvages the broken code for the single case of
setting the MTU while the interface is down, which is safe
and also includes the range check. Now enhanced to support up
or down interface.

We attach queue 0 after registering netdevice currently. This leads to call
netif_set_real_num_{tx|rx}_queues() after registering the netdevice. Since we
allow tun/tap has a maximum of 1024 queues, this may lead a huge number of
uevents to be injected to userspace since we create 2048 kobjects and then
remove 2046. Solve this problem by attaching queue 0 and set the real number of
queues before registering netdevice.

SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS call
The current SCTP stack is lacking a mechanism to have per association
statistics. This is an implementation modeled after OpenSolaris'
SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS.
Userspace part will follow on lksctp if/when there is a general ACK on
this.
V4:
- Move ipackets++ before q->immediate.func() for consistency reasons
- Move sctp_max_rto() at the end of sctp_transport_update_rto() to avoid
returning bogus RTO values
- return asoc->rto_min when max_obs_rto value has not changed
V3:
- Increase ictrlchunks in sctp_assoc_bh_rcv() as well
- Move ipackets++ to sctp_inq_push()
- return 0 when no rto updates took place since the last call
V2:
- Implement partial retrieval of stat struct to cope for future expansion
- Kill the rtxpackets counter as it cannot be precise anyway
- Rename outseqtsns to outofseqtsns to make it clearer that these are out
of sequence unexpected TSNs
- Move asoc->ipackets++ under a lock to avoid potential miscounts
- Fold asoc->opackets++ into the already existing asoc check
- Kill unneeded (q->asoc) test when increasing rtxchunks
- Do not count octrlchunks if sending failed (SCTP_XMIT_OK != 0)
- Don't count SHUTDOWNs as SACKs
- Move SCTP_GET_ASSOC_STATS to the private space API
- Adjust the len check in sctp_getsockopt_assoc_stats() to allow for
future struct growth
- Move association statistics in their own struct
- Update idupchunks when we send a SACK with dup TSNs
- return min_rto in max_rto when RTO has not changed. Also return the
transport when max_rto last changed.

TCP coalescing added a regression in splice(socket->pipe) performance,
for some workloads because of the way tcp_read_sock() is implemented.
The reason for this is the break when (offset + 1 != skb->len).
As we released the socket lock, this condition is possible if TCP stack
added a fragment to the skb, which can happen with TCP coalescing.
So let's go back to the beginning of the loop when this happens,
to give a chance to splice more frags per system call.
Doing so fixes the issue and makes GRO 10% faster than LRO
on CPU-bound splice() workloads instead of the opposite.

Avoid submitting packets to a vcc which is being closed. Things go badly
wrong when the ->pop method gets later called after everything's been
torn down.
Use the ATM socket lock for synchronisation with vcc_destroy_socket(),
which clears the ATM_VF_READY bit under the same lock. Otherwise, we
could end up submitting a packet to the device driver even after its
->ops->close method has been called. And it could call the vcc's ->pop
method after the protocol has been shut down. Which leads to a panic.

The immediate use case for this is that it will allow us to ensure that a
pppoatm queue is woken after it has to drop a packet due to the sock being

Note that 'release_cb' is called when the socket is *unlocked*. This is
not to be confused with vcc_release() — which probably ought to be called
vcc_close().

As of 026359b [ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are accepted], the
logic determining whether to send Router Solicitations is identical
to the logic determining whether kernel accepts Router Advertisements.
However the condition itself is repeated in several code locations.
Unify it by introducing 'ipv6_accept_ra()' accessor.
Also, simplify the condition expression, making it more readable.

As time passed, available memory increased faster than number of
concurrent tcp sockets.
As a result, a machine with 4GB of ram gets a hash table
with 524288 slots, using 8388608 bytes of memory.
Lets change that by a 16x factor (one slot for 128 KB of ram)
Even if a small machine needs a _lot_ of sockets, tcp lookups are now
very efficient, using one cache line per socket.

This change makes it so that only the first fragment in a series of fragments
