This makes generic netlink network namespace aware. No
generic netlink families except for the controller family
are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by
one and then set the family->netnsok member to true.
A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to
allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace,
for example when it applies to an object that lives in
that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns()
to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects
that do not have an associated netns).
The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast
the message in just init_net, which is currently correct
for all generic netlink families since they only work in
init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all
net namespaces because they do not care about the netns
at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of
the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or
genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns
aware in some way.
After this patch families can easily decide whether or
not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many
genl families us it for objects not related to networking
and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but
that will have to be done on a per family basis.
Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart
problem where network namespaces could be used, genl
families and multicast groups are numbered globally and
I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it
must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces
for those families that do not care about netns.

ARRAY_SIZE is more concise to use when the size of an array is divided by
the size of its type or the size of its first element.

Andrew Morton reported a build failure on sparc32, because TIPC

This patch simplifies and speeds up TIPC's algorithm for identifying
on-node and off-node destinations that overlap a multicast name
sequence range. Rather than traversing the list of all known name
publications within the cluster, it now traverses the (potentially
much shorter) list of name publications made by the node itself, and
determines if any off-node destinations exist by comparing the sizes
of the two lists. (Since the node list must be a subset of the
cluster list, a difference in sizes means that at least one off-node
destination must exist.)

This patch ensures that TIPC's multicast message name lookup
algorithm does individualized scope checking for each published
name it examines. Previously, scope checking was only done for
the first name in a name table publication list, which could
result in incoming multicast messages being delivered to ports
publishing names with "node" scope, or not being delivered to
ports publishing names with "cluster" or "zone" scope.

This patch ensurs that accept() returns successfully even when
the newly created socket is immediately disconnected by its peer.
Previously, accept() would fail if it was unable to pass back
the optional address info for the socket's peer before the
socket became disconnected; TIPC now allows accept() to gather
peer address information after disconnection. As a bonus, the
revised code accesses the socket's port more efficiently, without
the overhead incurred by a reference table lookup.

This patch introduces a new, out-of-range value to indicate that
a link endpoint does not have an existing session established
with its peer, eliminating the risk that the previously used
"invalid session number" value (i.e. zero) might eventually be
assigned as a valid session number and cause incorrect link
behavior.
The patch also introduces explicit bit masking when assigning a
new link session number to ensure it does not exceed 16 bits.

This patch ensures that TIPC's topology service and configuration
service are shut down before switching into "network mode". This
ensures that TIPC does not mistakenly try to send unnecessary
"publication withdraw" messages to other nodes before it is fully

current network address is now updated only after the two services
are shut down; this ensures that any existing connections to the
topology server are terminated correctly using the old address.

This patch modifies TIPC's network topology service so that it
only requires a single reference table entry per subscriber
connection, rather than two. This is achieved by letting the
reference to the server port communicating with the subscriber
act as the reference to the subscriber object itself. (Since
the subscriber cannot exist without its port, and vice versa,
this dual role for the reference is perfectly natural.) This
consolidation reduces the size of the reference table by 50%
in the default configuration.
