Provide per socket control of the TCP cookie option and SYN/SYNACK data. This is a straightforward re-implementation of an earlier (year-old) patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original author (Adam Langley): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586 The principle difference is using a TCP option to carry the cookie nonce, instead of a user configured offset in the data. Allocations have been rearranged to avoid requiring GFP_ATOMIC.

Data structures are carefully composed to require minimal additions. For example, the struct tcp_options_received cookie_plus variable fits between existing 16-bit and 8-bit variables, requiring no additional space (taking alignment into consideration). There are no additions to tcp_request_sock, and only 1 pointer in tcp_sock. This is a significantly revised implementation of an earlier (year-old) patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original author (Adam Langley): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586 The principle difference is using a TCP option to carry the cookie nonce, instead of a user configured offset in the data. This is more flexible and less subject to user configuration error. Such a cookie option has been suggested for many years, and is also useful without SYN data, allowing several related concepts to use the same extension option.

Define sysctl (tcp_cookie_size) to turn on and off the cookie option default globally, instead of a compiled configuration option. Define per socket option (TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS) for setting constant data values, retrieving variable cookie values, and other facilities. Move inline tcp_clear_options() unchanged from net/tcp.h to linux/tcp.h, near its corresponding struct tcp_options_received (prior to changes).

Define (missing) hash message size for SHA1. Define hashing size constants specific to TCP cookies. Add new function: tcp_cookie_generator(). Maintain global secret values for tcp_cookie_generator(). This is a significantly revised implementation of earlier (15-year-old) Photuris [RFC-2522] code for the KA9Q cooperative multitasking platform. Linux RCU technique appears to be well-suited to this application, though neither of the circular queue items are freed. These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement additional features.

Add optional function parameters associated with sending SYNACK. These parameters are not needed after sending SYNACK, and are not used for retransmission. Avoids extending struct tcp_request_sock, and avoids allocating kernel memory. Also affects DCCP as it uses common struct request_sock_ops, but this parameter is currently reserved for future use.

Handle few corner cases in firmware hang detection and recovery: o Don't mark device state as READY, till handshake with firmware is done. o During probe, if start_firmware fails, restore reference count. o Don't increment refernce count, if start_firmware fails during firmware reset. o Clear __NX_RESETTING bit, incase of fatal error or tempeature reaches critical limit so that pci remove() doesn't poll on this bit.

Driver maps only some part of the MMIO bar 0 in case of NX2031. This is sufficient for tx and rx by the driver. When debug tools need to access resources in unmapped regions, driver needs to map these on the fly in order to complete read/write request.

Some function pointers for a few PHY operations (for 82578 and 82567) and were set incorrectly causing functions to be executed that were accessing incorrect PHY register offsets for that particular device. This patch also moves a few PHY-specific functions from ich8lan.c to the more appropriate phy.c.

The workaround that detects the correct PHY ID when an initial read of the PHY ID registers returns an invalid one should retry up to ten times with a small delay between attempts using a single PHY address and then repeat using the remaining possible PHY addresses. Do this instead of trying each possible PHY address repeating that up to 100 times.

The function pointers for 8257x devices are not set. This is not really a problem now because there is nothing in the driver that references the pointers for this particular MAC-family (the appropriate functions are called directly), but the pointers should be set in case they are used in the future.

The two functions skb_dma_map/unmap are unsafe to use as they cause problems when packets are cloned and sent to multiple devices while a HW IOMMU is enabled.

This change removes skb_dma_map/unmap calls from the igb driver due to the fact that the call is incompatible with iommu enabled kernels.

This patch removes skb_dma_map/unmap calls from the ixgbe driver due to the fact that the calls don't work with HW IOMMU enabled systems. The problem is that multiple mappings will give different results when HW IOMMU is enabled and the skb_dma_map/unmap calls only have one location to store mappings.
