This patch improves the logic determining when to send ICMPv6 Router
Solicitations, so that they are 1) always sent when the kernel is
accepting Router Advertisements, and 2) never sent when the kernel is
not accepting RAs. In other words, the operational setting of the
"accept_ra" sysctl is used.
The change also makes the special "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode
("forwarding" sysctl set to 2) operate exactly the same as the standard
Router mode (forwarding=1). The only difference between the two was
that RSes was being sent in the Hybrid Router mode only. The sysctl
documentation describing the special Hybrid Router mode has therefore
been removed.
Rationale for the change:
Currently, the value of forwarding sysctl is the only thing determining
whether or not to send RSes. If it has the value 0 or 2, they are sent,
otherwise they are not. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in the
following cases:
* accept_ra=0, forwarding=0
* accept_ra=0, forwarding=2
* accept_ra=1, forwarding=2
* accept_ra=2, forwarding=1
In the first three cases, the kernel will send RSes, even though it will
not accept any RAs received in reply. In the last case, it will not send
any RSes, even though it will accept and process any RAs received. (Most
routers will send unsolicited RAs periodically, so suppressing RSes in
the last case will merely delay auto-configuration, not prevent it.)
Also, it is my opinion that having the forwarding sysctl control RS
sending behaviour (completely independent of whether RAs are being
accepted or not) is simply not what most users would intuitively expect
to be the case.

This patch adds a CAN Gateway/Router to route (and modify) CAN frames.
It is based on the PF_CAN core infrastructure for msg filtering and msg
sending and can optionally modify routed CAN frames on the fly.
CAN frames can *only* be routed between CAN network interfaces (one hop).
They can be modified with AND/OR/XOR/SET operations as configured by the
netlink configuration interface known e.g. from iptables. From the netlink
view this can-gw implements RTM_{NEW|DEL|GET}ROUTE for PF_CAN.
The CAN specific userspace tool to manage CAN routing entries can be found in
the CAN utils http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/socketcan/trunk/can-utils/cangw.c
at the SocketCAN SVN on BerliOS.

Attempt to reduce the number of IP packets emitted in response to single
SCTP packet (2e3216cd) introduced a complication - if a packet contains
two COOKIE_ECHO chunks and nothing else then SCTP state machine corks the
socket while processing first COOKIE_ECHO and then loses the association
and forgets to uncork the socket. To deal with the issue add new SCTP
command which can be used to set association explictly. Use this new
command when processing second COOKIE_ECHO chunk to restore the context
for SCTP state machine.

An earlier developer misunderstood the meaning of the 'irq' fields and
the driver did not support the standard fields. To avoid invalidating
existing user documentation, we report and accept changes through
either the standard or 'irq' fields. If both are changed at the same
time, we prefer the standard field.
Also explain why we don't currently use the 'max_frames' fields.

Make it simple and correct.

in which case it will be quietly overridden.

This patch makes iscsi-target explictly disable OFMarker=Yes and IFMarker=yes
parameter key usage during iscsi login by setting IFMarkInt_Reject and
OFMarkInt_Reject values in iscsi_enforce_integrity_rules() to effectively
disable iscsi marker usage. With this patch, an initiator proposer asking
to enable either marker parameter keys will be issued a 'No' response, and
the target sets OFMarkInt + IFMarkInt parameter key response to 'Irrelevant'.
With markers disabled during iscsi login, this patch removes the problematic
on-stack local-scope array for marker intervals in iscsit_do_rx_data() +
iscsit_do_tx_data(), and other related marker code in iscsi_target_util.c.

This patch adds target_parse_naa_6h_vendor_specific() to address a bug where the
conversion of PRODUCT SERIAL NUMBER to use hex2bin() in target_emulate_evpd_83()
was not doing proper isxdigit() checking. This conversion of the vpd_unit_serial
configifs attribute is done while generating a VPD=0x83 NAA IEEE Registered
Extended DESIGNATOR format's 100 bits of unique VENDOR SPECIFIC IDENTIFIER +
VENDOR SPECIFIC IDENTIFIER EXTENSION area.
This patch allows vpd_unit_serial (VPD=0x80) and the T10 Vendor ID DESIGNATOR
format (VPD=0x83) to continue to use free-form variable length ASCII values,
and now skips any non hex characters for fixed length NAA IEEE Registered Extended
DESIGNATOR format (VPD=0x83) requring the binary conversion.
This was originally reported by Martin after the v3.1-rc1 change to use hex2bin()
in commit 11650b8596 where the use of non hex
characters in vpd_unit_serial generated different values than the original
v3.0 internal hex -> binary code. This v3.1 change caused a problem with
filesystems who write a NAA DESIGNATOR onto it's ondisk metadata, and this patch
will (again) change existing values to ensure that non hex characters are not
included in the fixed length NAA DESIGNATOR.
Note this patch still expects vpd_unit_serial to be set via existing userspace
methods of uuid generation, and does not do strict formatting via configfs input.

During the association, the regulatory is updated by country IE
that reaps the previously found beacons. The impact is that
after a STA disconnects *or* when for any reason a regulatory
domain change happens the beacon hint flag is not cleared
therefore preventing future beacon hints to be learned.
This is important as a regulatory domain change or a restore
of regulatory settings would set back the passive scan and no-ibss
flags on the channel. This is the right place to do this given that
it covers any regulatory domain change.
