ipv4: Add interface option to enable routing of 127.0.0.0/8
Routing of 127/8 is tradtionally forbidden, we consider
packets from that address block martian when routing and do
not process corresponding ARP requests.
This is a sane default but renders a huge address space
practically unuseable.
The RFC states that no address within the 127/8 block should
ever appear on any network anywhere but it does not forbid
the use of such addresses outside of the loopback device in
particular. For example to address a pool of virtual guests
behind a load balancer.
This patch adds a new interface option 'route_localnet'
enabling routing of the 127/8 address block and processing
of ARP requests on a specific interface.
Note that for the feature to work, the default local route
covering 127/8 dev lo needs to be removed.
Example:
$ sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.route_localnet=1
$ ip route del 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo table local
$ ip addr add 127.1.0.1/16 dev eth0

In case of LRO skb->len is aggregate of len of number of packets hence MSS

would lead to delayed acks in some traffic patterns (which sends two or three

A new array is added for accessing the d_can registers, according to d_can

Current D_CAN implementation has following limitations, this is done
to avoid large changes to the C_CAN driver.
1. Message objects are limited to 32, 16 for RX and 16 for TX. C_CAN IP
supports upto 32 message objects but in case of D_CAN we can configure
upto 128 message objects.
2. Using two 16bit reads/writes for accessing the 32bit D_CAN registers.
3. These patches have been tested on little endian machine, there might
be some hidden endian-related issues due to the nature of the accesses
(32-bit registers accessed as 2 16-bit registers). However, I do not

* offloaded remain-on-channel couldn't be queued,
now we can queue it as well, if needed
* in iwlwifi (the only user) offloaded ROC is
mutually exclusive with scanning, use the new
queue to handle that case -- I expect that it
will later depend on a HW flag
The bigger issue though is that there's a bad bug
in the current implementation: if we get a mgmt
TX request while HW roc is active, and this new
request has a wait time, we actually schedule a
software ROC instead since we can't guarantee the
existing offloaded ROC will still be that long.
To fix this, the queuing mechanism was needed.
The queuing mechanism for offloaded ROC isn't yet
optimal, ideally we should add API to have the HW
extend the ROC if needed. We could add that later
but for now use a software implementation.
Overall, this unifies the behaviour between the
offloaded and software-implemented case as much
as possible.

mac80211: do remain-on-channel while idle
The IDLE handling in HW off-channel is broken right
now since we turn off IDLE only when the off-channel
period already started. Therefore, all drivers that
use it today (only iwlwifi!) must support off-channel
while idle, so playing with idle isn't needed at all.
Off-channel in general, since it's no longer used for
authentication/association, shouldn't affect PS, so
also remove that logic.
Also document a small caveat for reporting TX status
from off-channel frames in HW remain-on-channel.

ath9k: Resync beacons properly
After a chip reset, the beacon timers have to re-programmed
correctly for a station in associated state. Use the PS flags
to ensure that this is done after a TSF sync happens, otherwise
the driver ends up using incorrect values for TBTT/DTIM in
powersave mode.
