when using hardware-scanning and a wireless driver (i.e. iwlwifi) which is
able to receive data while scanning.

The rx handlers can modify the skb and the frame control field (see
ieee80211_rx_h_remove_qos_control) but since every interface gets its own
copy of the skb each should get its own copy of rx.fc too.

In my case the wlan0-interface did not remove the qos-control from the frame
because the corresponding flag in rx.fc was already removed while processing
the frame on the master interface. Therefore somehow corrupted frames were

[LIB] pcounter : unline too big functions

Before pushing pcounter to Linus tree, I would like to make some adjustments.

Goal is to reduce kernel text size, by unlining too big functions.

When a pcounter is bound to a statically defined per_cpu variable,
we define two small helpers functions. (No more folding function
using the fat for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) ... )

static DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, NAME##_pcounter_values);
static void NAME##_pcounter_add(struct pcounter *self, int val)
{
       __get_cpu_var(NAME##_pcounter_values) += val;
}
static int NAME##_pcounter_getval(const struct pcounter *self, int cpu)
{
       return per_cpu(NAME##_pcounter_values, cpu);
}

Fast path is therefore unchanged, while folding/alloc/free is now unlined.

[TCP]: Make invariant check complain about invalid sacked_out

Earlier resolution for NewReno's sacked_out should now keep
it small enough for this to become invariant-like check.

16 years ago[NET] CORE: Introducing new memory accounting interface.
Hideo Aoki [Mon, 31 Dec 2007 08:11:19 +0000 (00:11 -0800)] 
[NET] CORE: Introducing new memory accounting interface.

This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network
protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions
for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting
functions are removed since other functions do same thing.

Renaming:
sk_stream_free_skb() -> sk_wmem_free_skb()
__sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> __sk_mem_reclaim()
sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> sk_mem_reclaim()
sk_stream_mem_schedule  ->     __sk_mem_schedule()
sk_stream_pages()       -> sk_mem_pages()
sk_stream_rmem_schedule() -> sk_rmem_schedule()
sk_stream_wmem_schedule() -> sk_wmem_schedule()
sk_charge_skb() -> sk_mem_charge()

Removeing
sk_stream_rfree(): consolidates into sock_rfree()
sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r()
sk_stream_mem_schedule()

The following functions are added.
     sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting
sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge()

In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is
removed from sk_mem_charge().

Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds
memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present
memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call.

Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface
in TCP and SCTP.
