socket's namespace only. see

net: ipv6: add socket option IPV6_ROUTER_ALERT_ISOLATE
new fields for RFC 4898 tcp stats in linux
tcpi_bytes_sent added in commit ba113c3aa79a7f941ac162d05a3620bdc985c58d
tcpi_bytes_retrans added in commit fb31c9b9f6c85b1bad569ecedbde78d9e37cd87b
tcpi_dsack_dups added in commit 7e10b6554ff2ce7f86d5d3eec3af5db8db482caa
tcpi_reord_seen added in commit 7ec65372ca534217b53fd208500cf7aac223a383
The new fields change the size of a public struct and thus an ABI break,
but this is how the getsockopt TCP_INFO api is designed: the tcp_info
type must only be used with a length parameter in extern interfaces.
add UDP_NO_CHECK6_* to restrict zero UDP6 checksums, new in linux commit
1c19448c9ba6545b80ded18488a64a7f3d8e6998 (pre-v4.18 change, was missed)
add UDP_SEGMENT to support generic segmentation offload for udp datagrams,
bec1f6f697362c5bc635dacd7ac8499d0a10a4e7 (new in v4.18)

new ethertypes in linux v4.14:
ETH_P_ERSPAN new in 84e54fe0a5eaed696dee4019c396f8396f5a908b
ETH_P_IFE new in 2804fd3af6ba5ae5737705b27146455eabe2e2f8

With Linux kernel 4.16 it will be possible to guard more parts of the
Linux header files from a libc. Make use of this in musl to guard all
the structures and other definitions from the Linux header files which
are also defined by the header files provided by musl. This will make
it possible to compile source files which include both the libc
headers and the kernel userspace headers.
This extends the definitions done in commit 04983f2272 ("make
netinet/in.h suppress clashing definitions from kernel headers")
min max mtu size definitions mostly for drivers.
new in linux commits a52ad514fdf3b8a57ca4322c92d2d8d5c6182485 and
d894be57ca92c8a8819ab544d550809e8731137b
for tcp timestamp control messages, new in linux commit
1c885808e45601b2b6f68b30ac1d999e10b6f606
and export time measurements via tcp_info, added in linux commit
efd90174167530c67a54273fd5d8369c87f9bd32
the linux kernel uapi headers provide their own definitions of the
structures from netinet/in.h, resulting in errors when a program
includes both the standard libc header and one or more of the
networking-related kernel headers that pull in the kernel definitions.
as before, we do not attempt to support the case where kernel headers
are included before the libc ones, since the kernel definitions may
have subtly incorrect types, namespace violations, etc. however, we
can easily support the inclusion of the kernel headers after the libc
ones, since the kernel headers provide a public interface for
suppressing their definitions. this patch adds the necessary macro
definitions for such suppression.
ETH_P_HSR (IEC 62439-3 HSRv1) added in
linux 4.7 commit ee1c27977284907d40f7f72c2d078d709f15811f
ETH_P_TSN (IEEE 1722) added in
linux 4.3 commit 1ab1e895492d8084dfc1c854efacde219e56b8c1
this constant breaks the ascending order to match the kernel header
ETH_P_XDSA (Multiplexed DSA protocol) added in
linux 3.18 commit 3e8a72d1dae374cf6fc1dba97cec663585845ff9
placing the opening brace on the same line as the struct keyword/tag
is the style I prefer and seems to be the prevailing practice in more
recent additions.
these changes were generated by the command:
find include/ arch/*/bits -name '*.h' \
-exec sed -i '/^struct [^;{]*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}' {} +
and subsequently checked by hand to ensure that the regex did not pick
up any false positives.

IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT is a SOL_IP socket option to delay src port
allocation until connect in case src ip is set with bind(port=0).
new in linux v4.2, commit 90c337da1524863838658078ec34241f45d8394d
IPPROTO_MPLS protocol number for mpls over ip.
new in linux v4.2, commit 730fc4371333636a00fed32c587fc1e85c5367e2
TCP_CC_INFO is a new socket option to get congestion control info without
netlink (union tcp_cc_info is in linux/inet_diag.h kernel header).
linux commit 6e9250f59ef9efb932c84850cd221f22c2a03c4a
TCP_SAVE_SYN, TCP_SAVED_SYN socket options are for saving and getting the
SYN headers of passive connections in a server application.
linux commit cd8ae85299d54155702a56811b2e035e63064d3d
Add new tcpi_* fields to struct tcp_info implementing RFC4898 counters.
linux commit 2efd055c53c06b7e89c167c98069bab9afce7e59
Programs such as iptables depend on these constants, which can also
be found defined in other libcs.
Since only TCP_* is reserved as part of tcp.h's namespace, we hide
them behind _BSD_SOURCE (and therefore _DEFAULT_SOURCE) to expose
them by default, but keep it standard conforming.
ETH_P_80221 is ethertype for IEEE Std 802.21 - Media Independent Handover Protocol
introduced in linux 3.15 commit b62faf3cdc875a1ac5a10696cf6ea0b12bab1596
ETH_P_LOOPBACK is the correct packet type for loopback in IEEE 802.3*
introduced in linux 3.15 commit 61ccbb684421d374fdcd7cf5d6b024b06f03ce4e
some defines were shuffled to be in ascending order and match the kernel header
from linux/in.h and linux/in6.h uapi headers the following
missing socket options were added:
IP_NODEFRAG - used with customized ipv4 headers
IPV6_RECVPATHMTU - for ipv6 path mtu
IPV6_PATHMTU - for ipv6 path mtu
IPV6_DONTFRAG - for ipv6 path mtu
IPV6_ADDR_PREFERENCES - RFC5014 Source Address Selection
IPV6_MINHOPCOUNT - RFC5082 Generalized TTL Security Mechanism
IPV6_ORIGDSTADDR - used by tproxy
IPV6_RECVORIGDSTADDR - used by tproxy
IPV6_TRANSPARENT - used by tproxy
IPV6_UNICAST_IF - ipv6 version of IP_UNICAST_IF
and socket option values:
IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT - value for IP_MTU_DISCOVER option, new in linux 3.14
IPV6_PMTUDISC_OMIT - same for IPV6_MTU_DISCOVER
IPV6_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE - ipv6 version of IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE
IPV6_PREFER_* - flags for IPV6_ADDR_PREFERENCES
not added: ipv6 flow info and flow label related definitions.
(it's unclear if libc should define these and namespace polluting
type name is involved so they are not provided for now)
