While looking for the recent "sack issue" I also read all eff_sacks
usage that was played around by some relevant commit. I found
out that there's another thing that is asking for a fix (unrelated
to the "sack issue" though).
This feature has probably very little significance in practice.
Opposite direction timeout with bidirectional tcp comes to me as
the most likely scenario though there might be other cases as
well related to non-data segments we send (e.g., response to the
opposite direction segment). Also some ACK losses or option space
wasted for other purposes is necessary to prevent the earlier
SACK feedback getting to the sender.

One of the current debug options allows users to get a verbose dump of fcalls.
This isn't really necessary as correctly parsed protocol frames can be printed
as part of the code in the client functions. The consolidated printfcalls

This adds a new protocol processing support code based on Anthony Liguori's
9p library code. This code performs protocol marshalling/unmarshalling using
printf like strings to represent protocol elements. It is my intent to use
them to replace the current functions in conv.c as well as the
p9_create_* functions.
This should make the client implementation much more clear, and also make it
much easier to add new protocol extensions by limiting the number of places
in which changes need to be made.

Currently reading a directory is implemented in the client code.
This function is not actually a wire operation, but a meta operation
which calls read operations and processes the results.
This patch moves this functionality to the fs layer and calls component
wire operations instead of constructing their packets. This provides a
cleaner separation and will help when we reorganize the client functions
and protocol processing methods.

There are a couple of methods in the client code which aren't actually

Post p9_fd_poll() error path which checks m->poll_waddr[i] for PTR_ERR
value has the following problems.
* It's completely unused. Error value is set iff NULL @wait_address
has been specified to p9_pollwait() which is guaranteed not to
happen.
* It dereferences @m after deallocating it (introduced by 571ffeaf and
spotted by Raja R Harinath.
* It returned the wrong value on error. It should return
poll_waddr[i] but it returnes poll_waddr (introduced by 571ffeaf).
* p9_mux_poll_stop() doesn't handle PTR_ERR value. It will try to
operate on the PTR_ERR value as if it's a normal pointer and cause
oops.

trans_fd used pool of upto 100 pollers to monitor the r/w fds. The
approach makes sense in userspace back when the only available
interfaces were poll(2) and select(2). As each event monitor -
trigger - handling iteration took O(n) where `n' is the number of
watched fds, it makes sense to spread them to many pollers such that
the `n' can be divided by the number of pollers. However, this
doesn't make any sense in kernel because persistent edge triggered
event monitoring is how the whole thing is implemented in the kernel
in the first place.
This patch converts trans_fd to use single poller which watches all
the fds instead of the poll of pollers approach. All the fds are
registered for monitoring on creation and only the fds with pending
events are scanned when something happens much like how epoll is
implemented.
This change makes trans_fd fd monitoring more efficient and simpler.

Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages.
I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes
control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file,
currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG,
is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by
defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no
affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set.
The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That
is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls
can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis.
Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define
their own debug levels and flags.
Usage:
Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file,
<debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that
can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows:
<module_name> <enabled=0/1>
.
.
.
<module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides
<enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not
For example:
snd_hda_intel enabled=0
fixup enabled=1
driver enabled=0
Enable a module:
$echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules
Disable a module:
$echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules
Enable all modules:
$echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules
Disable all modules:
$echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules
Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables
debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above
disable command.

Problem observed:
In IPv6, in the presence of multiple routers candidates to
default gateway in one segment, each sending a different
value of preference, the Linux hosts connected to the
segment weren't selecting the right one in all the
combinations possible of LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH preference.
This patch changes two files:
include/linux/icmpv6.h
Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place
(as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as
"home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function)
net/ipv6/ndisc.c
Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the
router preference in the flags of the routing table
Result:
With this two fixes applied, the default route used by
the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned
in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference
in router advertisements
