* [NETLINK]: Switch cb_lock spinlock to mutex and allow to override itPatrick McHardy2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | Switch cb_lock to mutex and allow netlink kernel users to override it with a subsystem specific mutex for consistent locking in dump callbacks. All netlink_dump_start users have been audited not to rely on any side-effects of the previously used spinlock. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_log: remove fallback to group 0Patrick McHardy2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | Don't fallback to group 0 if no instance can be found for the given group. This potentially confuses the listener and is not what the user configured. Also remove the ring buffer spamming that happens when rules are set up before the logging daemon is started. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NETFILTER]: ebt_arp: add gratuitous arp filteringBart De Schuymer2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The attached patch adds gratuitous arp filtering, more precisely: it allows checking that the IPv4 source address matches the IPv4 destination address inside the ARP header. It also adds a check for the hardware address type when matching MAC addresses (nothing critical, just for better consistency).

* [DCCP]: Fix bug in the calculation of very low sending ratesGerrit Renker2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes an error in the calculation of t_ipi when X converges towards very low sending rates (between 1 and 64 bytes per second). Although this case may not sound likely, it can be reproduced by connecting, hitting enter (1 byte sent) and waiting for some time, during which the nofeedback timer halves the sending rate until finally it reaches the region 1..64 bytes/sec. Computing X is handled correctly (tested separately); but by dividing X _before_ entering the calculation of t_ipi, X becomes zero as a result. This in turn triggers a BUG condition caught in scaled_div(). Fixed by replacing with equivalent statement and explicit typecast for good measure. Calculation verified and effect of patch tested - reduced never below 1 byte per 64 seconds afterwards, i.e. not allowing divide-by-zero.

* bridge: simpler hash with saltStephen Hemminger2007-04-26

* bridge: don't route packets while learningStephen Hemminger2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | While in the STP learning state, don't route packets; wait until forwarding delay has expired. The purpose of the forwarding delay is to detect loops in the network, and if a brouter started up and started forwarding, it could cause a flood.

* [NET]: Treat CHECKSUM_PARTIAL as CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARYHerbert Xu2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | When a transmitted packet is looped back directly, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL maps to the semantics of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Therefore we should treat it as such in the stack. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NETDRV]: Perform missing csum_offset conversionsHerbert Xu2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When csum_offset was introduced we did a conversion from csum to csum_offset where applicable. A couple of drivers were missed in this process. It was harmless to begin with since the two fields coincided. Now that we've made them different with the addition of csum_start, the missed drivers must be converted or they can't send packets out at all that require checksum offload.

* [NET]: Use csum_start offset instead of skb_transport_headerHerbert Xu2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The skb transport pointer is currently used to specify the start of the checksum region for transmit checksum offload. Unfortunately, the same pointer is also used during receive side processing. This creates a problem when we want to retransmit a received packet with partial checksums since the skb transport pointer would be overwritten. This patch solves this problem by creating a new 16-bit csum_start offset value to replace the skb transport header for the purpose of checksums. This offset is calculated from skb->head so that it does not have to change when skb->data changes. No extra space is required since csum_offset itself fits within a 16-bit word so we can use the other 16 bits for csum_start. For backwards compatibility, just before we push a packet with partial checksums off into the device driver, we set the skb transport header to what it would have been under the old scheme.

* [XFRM]: beet: fix worst case header_len calculationPatrick McHardy2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | esp_init_state doesn't account for the beet pseudo header in the header_len calculation, which may result in undersized skbs hitting xfrm4_beet_output, causing unnecessary reallocations in ip_finish_output2. The skbs should still always have enough room to avoid causing skb_under_panic in skb_push since we have at least 16 bytes available from LL_RESERVED_SPACE in xfrm_state_check_space.

* [XFRM]: Optimize MTU calculationPatrick McHardy2007-04-26

* [NET]: Inline net_device_statsRusty Russell2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Network drivers which keep stats allocate their own stats structure then write a get_stats() function to return them. It would be nice if this were done by default. 1) Add a new "stats" field to "struct net_device". 2) Add a new feature field to say "this driver uses the internal one" 3) Have a default "get_stats" which returns NULL if that feature not set. 4) Change callers to check result of get_stats call for NULL, not if ->get_stats is set. This should not break backwards compatibility with older drivers, yet allow modern drivers to shed some boilerplate code. Lightly tested: works for a modified lguest network driver.

* [NET] fib_rules: Flush route cache after rule modificationsThomas Graf2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The results of FIB rules lookups are cached in the routing cache except for IPv6 as no such cache exists. So far, it was the responsibility of the user to flush the cache after modifying any rules. This lead to many false bug reports due to misunderstanding of this concept.

* [NET]: Allow forwarding of ip_summed except CHECKSUM_COMPLETEHerbert Xu2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now Xen has a horrible hack that lets it forward packets with partial checksums. One of the reasons that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE were added is so that we can get rid of this hack (where it creates two extra bits in the skbuff to essentially mirror ip_summed without being destroyed by the forwarding code). I had forgotten that I've already gone through all the deivce drivers last time around to make sure that they're looking at ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL rather than ip_summed != 0 on transmit. In any case, I've now done that again so it should definitely be safe. Unfortunately nobody has yet added any code to update CHECKSUM_COMPLETE values on forward so we I'm setting that to CHECKSUM_NONE. This should be safe to remove for bridging but I'd like to check that code path first. So here is the patch that lets us get rid of the hack by preserving ip_summed (mostly) on forwarded packets.

* [NET] fib_rules: Mark rules detached from the deviceThomas Graf2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rules which match against device names in their selector can remain while the device itself disappears, in fact the device doesn't have to present when the rule is added in the first place. The device name is resolved by trying when the rule is added and later by listening to NETDEV_REGISTER/UNREGISTER notifications. This patch adds the flag FIB_RULE_DEV_DETACHED which is set towards userspace when a rule contains a device match which is unresolved at the moment. This eases spotting the reason why certain rules seem not to function properly. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET] fib_rules: goto rule actionThomas Graf2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new rule action FR_ACT_GOTO which allows to skip a set of rules by jumping to another rule. The rule to jump to is specified via the FRA_GOTO attribute which carries a rule preference. Referring to a rule which doesn't exists is explicitely allowed. Such goto rules are marked with the flag FIB_RULE_UNRESOLVED and will act like a rule with a non-matching selector. The rule will become functional as soon as its target is present. The goto action enables performance optimizations by reducing the average number of rules that have to be passed per lookup. Example: 0: from all lookup local 40: not from all to 192.168.23.128 goto 32766 41: from all fwmark 0xa blackhole 42: from all fwmark 0xff blackhole 32766: from all lookup main Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.
