13 years agonet: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor.
David S. Miller [Mon, 13 Dec 2010 20:52:14 +0000 (12:52 -0800)]
net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor.

Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function,
dst_metric_advmss().

Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot,
and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops
AF specific callback.

For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which
preserves existing behavior.

Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates
advmss on pmtu updates.  This inconsistency in advmss handling
results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with.

2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use

Calling pci_disable_sriov when unloading a SR-IOV physical function
driver from a host when a guest is using a virtual function from that
device can cause a host crash or VM crash.  The crash is caused by the
virtual config space no longer being present when PF is removed (due to
the pci_disable_sriov).  This can be avoided by not calling
pci_disable_sriov to disable the PCI space when shutting down the PF.
Each function in the X3100 operates independently and in this case will
operate properly in the absence of the PF.
