performance (eg the TCP_RR stuff I posted recently) being rather
worse with TSO enabled than with it disabled?
That, like any such thing shown by the batching

This is only a start, and needs more work.
Applies against net-2.6.24

Over in LSM/SELinux land there has been a lot of talk recently about how to
deal with loopback and forwarded traffic, specifically, how to preserve the
sender's security label on those two types of traffic. Yes, there is the
existing sk_buff.secmark field but that is already being used for

Uses nlmsg_parse() to parse the attributes. This actually changes
behaviour as unknown attributes (type MAXTYPE) no longer cause
an error. Instead unknown attributes will be ignored henceforth
to keep older kernels

We're currently talking about several different ideas to solve the problem,
