* [IPv6]: Export userland ND options through netlink (RDNSS support)Pierre Ynard2007-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but support to control which options are exported could be easily added. A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by new use cases.

* [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchroniousDenis V. Lunev2007-10-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious. This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced asynchronious user -> kernel communication. The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the user. Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing may occur in the arbitrary process context. This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet processing right in the netlink_unicast. Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched. EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now. Signed-off-by: Denis V.

* [INET]: local port range robustnessStephen Hemminger2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Expansion of original idea from Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Add robustness and locking to the local_port_range sysctl. 1. Enforce that low < high when setting. 2. Use seqlock to ensure atomic update. The locking might seem like overkill, but there are cases where sysadmin might want to change value in the middle of a DoS attack.

* [IPSEC]: Get rid of ipv6_{auth,esp,comp}_hdrHerbert Xu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch removes the duplicate ipv6_{auth,esp,comp}_hdr structures since they're identical to the IPv4 versions. Duplicating them would only create problems for ourselves later when we need to add things like extended sequence numbers.

* [IPSEC]: Use IPv6 calling convention as the convention for x->mode->outputHerbert Xu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The IPv6 calling convention for x->mode->output is more general and could help an eventual protocol-generic x->type->output implementation. This patch adopts it for IPv4 as well and modifies the IPv4 type output functions accordingly. It also rewrites the IPv6 mac/transport header calculation to be based off the network header where practical. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPSEC]: Move common code into xfrm_alloc_spiHerbert Xu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch moves some common code that conceptually belongs to the xfrm core from af_key/xfrm_user into xfrm_alloc_spi. In particular, the spin lock on the state is now taken inside xfrm_alloc_spi. Previously it also protected the construction of the response PF_KEY/XFRM messages to user-space. This is inconsistent as other identical constructions are not protected by the state lock. This is bad because they in fact should be protected but only in certain spots (so as not to hold the lock for too long which may cause packet drops). The SPI byte order conversion has also been moved. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=nPavel Emelyanov2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section, thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before. Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot. Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes" for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS is not set to save more space in memory. The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section, as noticed by David, since the init section will have references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already done with the __init_refok.

* [IPSEC]: Move output replay code into xfrm_outputHerbert Xu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | The replay counter is one of only two remaining things in the output code that requires a lock on the xfrm state (the other being the crypto).

* [IPSEC]: Move common output code to xfrm_outputHerbert Xu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the code in xfrm4_output_one and xfrm6_output_one are identical so this patch moves them into a common xfrm_output function which will live in net/xfrm. In fact this would seem to fix a bug as on IPv4 we never reset the network header after a transform which may upset netfilter later on.

* [AF_IUCV]: postpone receival of iucv-packetsUrsula Braun2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AF_IUCV socket programs may waste Linux storage, because af_iucv allocates an skb whenever posted by the receive callback routine and receives the message immediately. Message receival is now postponed if data from previous callbacks has not yet been transferred to the receiving socket program. Instead a message handle is saved in a message queue as a reminder. Once messages could be given to the receiving socket program, there is an additional checking for entries in the message queue, followed by skb allocation and message receival if applicable.

* [PKT_SCHED]: Add stateless NATHerbert Xu2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stateless NAT is useful in controlled environments where restrictions are placed on through traffic such that we don't need connection tracking to correctly NAT protocol-specific data. In particular, this is of interest when the number of flows or the number of addresses being NATed is large, or if connection tracking information has to be replicated and where it is not practical to do so. Previously we had stateless NAT functionality which was integrated into the IPv4 routing subsystem. This was a great solution as long as the NAT worked on a subnet to subnet basis such that the number of NAT rules was relatively small. The reason is that for SNAT the routing based system had to perform a linear scan through the rules. If the number of rules is large then major renovations would have take place in the routing subsystem to make this practical. For the time being, the least intrusive way of achieving this is to use the u32 classifier written by Alexey Kuznetsov along with the actions infrastructure implemented by Jamal Hadi Salim. The following patch is an attempt at this problem by creating a new nat action that can be invoked from u32 hash tables which would allow large number of stateless NAT rules that can be used/updated in constant time. The actual NAT code is mostly based on the previous stateless NAT code written by Alexey. In future we might be able to utilise the protocol NAT code from netfilter to improve support for other protocols. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [PATCH] mac80211: revamp interface and filter configurationJohannes Berg2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc. This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list() callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*). For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags. Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g. FIF_ALLMULTI. Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or when the mc_count value is positive. At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop() ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after any remove_interface(). The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced. This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID to all-ones.

* [NETNS]: Simplify the network namespace list locking rules.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Denis V. Lunev <den@sw.ru> noticed that the locking rules for the network namespace list are over complicated and broken. In particular the current register_netdev_notifier currently does not take any lock making the for_each_net iteration racy with network namespace creation and destruction. Oops. The fact that we need to use for_each_net in rtnl_unlock() when the rtnetlink support becomes per network namespace makes designing the proper locking tricky. In addition we need to be able to call rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() when we have the net_mutex held. After thinking about it and looking at the alternatives carefully it looks like the simplest and most maintainable solution is to remove net_list_mutex altogether, and to use the rtnl_mutex instead.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems I was actually able to hit this deadlock, on my quad G5 softmac locks up more often than not. This fixes it by using an own workqueue that can safely be flushed under RTNL. Not sure if the patch is correct with the workqueue naming. And don't think with the patch it doesn't continually lock up. It still does, just doesn't invoke lockdep warnings all the time.
