Thomas Graf adaa70bbdf [IPv6] rules: Use RT6_LOOKUP_F_HAS_SADDR and fix source based selectors
Fixes rt6_lookup() to provide the source address in the flow
and sets RT6_LOOKUP_F_HAS_SADDR whenever it is present in
the flow.

Avoids unnecessary prefix comparisons by checking for a prefix
length first.

Fixes the rule logic to not match packets if a source selector
has been specified but no source address is available.

Thanks to Kim Nordlund <kim.nordlund@nokia.com> for working
on this patch with me.

continuing to accept and send the rtm_table field, but because of its

implies that if larger IDs are used, _all_ userspace programs using them

Lv Liangying 76d0cc1b64 [IPV6]: SNMPv2 "ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors" counter error
When I tested Linux kernel 2.6.17.7 about statistics
"ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors", found that this counter couldn't increase
correctly. The criteria is RFC2465:
 ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors OBJECT-TYPE
      SYNTAX      Counter32
      MAX-ACCESS  read-only
      STATUS      current
      DESCRIPTION
         "The number of input datagrams discarded because
         the IPv6 address in their IPv6 header's destination
         field was not a valid address to be received at
         this entity.  This count includes invalid
         addresses (e.g., ::0) and unsupported addresses
         (e.g., addresses with unallocated prefixes).  For
         entities which are not IPv6 routers and therefore
         do not forward datagrams, this counter includes
         datagrams discarded because the destination address
         was not a local address."
      ::= { ipv6IfStatsEntry 5 }

When I send packet to host with destination that is ether invalid
address(::0) or unsupported addresses(1::1), the Linux kernel just
discard the packet, and the counter doesn't increase(in the function
ip6_pkt_discard).

locking init cleanups:

 - convert " = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED" to spin_lock_init() or DEFINE_SPINLOCK()
 - convert rwlocks in a similar manner

this patch was generated automatically.

Motivation:

 - cleanliness
 - lockdep needs control of lock initialization, which the open-coded
   variants do not give
 - it's also useful for -rt and for lock debugging in general

Herbert Xu efacfbcb6c [IPV6]: Fix rtnetlink dump infinite loop
The recent change to netlink dump "done" callback handling broke IPv6
which played dirty tricks with the "done" callback.  This causes an
infinite loop during a dump.

The following patch fixes it.

This bug was reported by Jeff Garzik.

Most netlink families make no use of the done() callback, making
it optional gets rid of all unnecessary dummy implementations.

Yan Zheng 9d17f21893 [IPV6]: Fix behavior of ip6_route_input() for link local address
I find that linux will reply echo request destined to an address which
belongs to an interface other than the one from which the request received.
This behavior doesn't make sense for link local address.

YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> said:

Please note that sender does need to setup neighbor entry by hand to reproduce
this bug.  (Link-local address on eth1 is not visible on eth0, from the point
of view of neighbor discovery in IPv6.)

Jamal Hadi Salim 0d51aa80a9 [IPV6]: V6 route events reported with wrong netlink PID and seq number
Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0
always for v6 route activities. 
To understand the repurcassions of this look at:
http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html

While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue
of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well.

This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e
maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to
the process. That made the patch a little bulky.

I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as
well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga.
This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any
new issues.

Jamal Hadi Salim b6544c0b4c [NETLINK]: Correctly set NLM_F_MULTI without checking the pid
This patch rectifies some rtnetlink message builders that derive the
flags from the pid. It is now explicit like the other cases
which get it right. Also fixes half a dozen dumpers which did not
set NLM_F_MULTI at all.

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!
