* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce ipv6_hdr(), remove skb->nh.ipv6hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | Now the skb->nh union has just one member, .raw, i.e. it is just like the skb->mac union, strange, no? I'm just leaving it like that till the transport layer is done with, when we'll rename skb->mac.raw to skb->mac_header (or ->mac_header_offset?), ditto for ->{h,nh}.

* [NET]: Adding SO_TIMESTAMPNS / SCM_TIMESTAMPNS supportEric Dumazet2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that network timestamps use ktime_t infrastructure, we can add a new SOL_SOCKET sockopt SO_TIMESTAMPNS. This command is similar to SO_TIMESTAMP, but permits transmission of a 'timespec struct' instead of a 'timeval struct' control message. (nanosecond resolution instead of microsecond) Control message is labelled SCM_TIMESTAMPNS instead of SCM_TIMESTAMP A socket cannot mix SO_TIMESTAMP and SO_TIMESTAMPNS : the two modes are mutually exclusive. sock_recv_timestamp() became too big to be fully inlined so I added a __sock_recv_timestamp() helper function.

* [UDP]: Clean up UDP-Lite receive checksumHerbert Xu2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch eliminates some duplicate code for the verification of receive checksums between UDP-Lite and UDP. It does this by introducing __skb_checksum_complete_head which is identical to __skb_checksum_complete_head apart from the fact that it takes a length parameter rather than computing the first skb->len bytes. As a result UDP-Lite will be able to use hardware checksum offload for packets which do not use partial coverage checksums. It also means that UDP-Lite loopback no longer does unnecessary checksum verification. If any NICs start support UDP-Lite this would also start working automatically. This patch removes the assumption that msg_flags has MSG_TRUNC clear upon entry in recvmsg. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPV6] ADDRCONF: Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection (RFC 4429) Support.Neil Horman2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nominally an autoconfigured IPv6 address is added to an interface in the Tentative state (as per RFC 2462). Addresses in this state remain in this state while the Duplicate Address Detection process operates on them to determine their uniqueness on the network. During this period, these tentative addresses may not be used for communication, increasing the time before a node may be able to communicate on a network. Using Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection, autoconfigured addresses may be used immediately for communication on the network, as long as certain rules are followed to avoid conflicts with other nodes during the Duplicate Address Detection process.

* [NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_tEric Dumazet2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain 'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct sock. This has some drawbacks : - Fixed resolution of micro second. - Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16 I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution. As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...) Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS) Note : this patch includes a bug correction in compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> CC: John find <linux.kernel@free.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NET]: Keep sk_backlog near sk_lockEric Dumazet2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | sk_backlog is a critical field of struct sock. (known famous words) It is (ab)used in hot paths, in particular in release_sock(), tcp_recvmsg(), tcp_v4_rcv(), sk_receive_skb(). It really makes sense to place it next to sk_lock, because sk_backlog is only used after sk_lock locked (and thus memory cache line in L1 cache). This should reduce cache misses and sk_lock acquisition time. (In theory, we could only move the head pointer near sk_lock, and leaving tail far away, because 'tail' is normally not so hot, but keep it simple :) ) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [TCP]: Add two new spurious RTO responses to FRTOIlpo Järvinen2007-04-26

* [TCP] FRTO: Entry is allowed only during (New)Reno like recoveryIlpo Järvinen2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This interpretation comes from RFC4138: "If the sender implements some loss recovery algorithm other than Reno or NewReno [FHG04], the F-RTO algorithm SHOULD NOT be entered when earlier fast recovery is underway." I think the RFC means to say (especially in the light of Appendix B) that ...recovery is underway (not just fast recovery) or was underway when it was interrupted by an earlier (F-)RTO that hasn't yet been resolved (snd_una has not advanced enough). Thus, my interpretation is that whenever TCP has ever retransmitted other than head, basic version cannot be used because then the order assumptions which are used as FRTO basis do not hold. NewReno has only the head segment retransmitted at a time. Therefore, walk up to the segment that has not been SACKed, if that segment is not retransmitted nor anything before it, we know for sure, that nothing after the non-SACKed segment should be either. This assumption is valid because TCPCB_EVER_RETRANS does not leave holes but each non-SACKed segment is rexmitted in-order. Check for retrans_out > 1 avoids more expensive walk through the skb list, as we can know the result beforehand: F-RTO will not be allowed. SACKed skb can turn into non-SACked only in the extremely rare case of SACK reneging, in this case we might fail to detect retransmissions if there were them for any other than head. To get rid of that feature, whole rexmit queue would have to be walked (always) or FRTO should be prevented when SACK reneging happens. Of course RTO should still trigger after reneging which makes this issue even less likely to show up. And as long as the response is as conservative as it's now, nothing bad happens even then.

After subtraction this results in a checksum for the 1st fragment with bits 16..31 set to 1. (this is ok) _AND_ 3) The checksum of the 1st fragment's TCP header plus the previously 32bit checksum of the 1st fragment DOES NOT cause a 32bit overflow when added together. This results in a checksum of the TCP header plus TCP data that still has the upper 16 bits as 1's. _THEN_ 4) The TCP+data checksum is added to the checksum of the pseudo IP header with csum_tcpudp_nofold() incorrectly (the bug). The problem is the checksum of the TCP+data is passed to csum_tcpudp_nofold() as an 32bit unsigned value, however the assembly code acts on it as if it is a 64bit unsigned value. This causes an incorrect 32->64bit extension if the sum has bit 31 set. The resulting checksum is off by one. This problems is data and TCP header dependent due to #2 and #3 above so it doesn't occur on every TCP packet split.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The save_fp_context()/restore_fp_context() might sleep on accessing user stack and therefore might lose FPU ownership in middle of them. If these function failed due to "in_atomic" test in do_page_fault, touch the sigcontext area in non-atomic context and retry these save/restore operation. This is a replacement of a (broken) fix which was titled "Allow CpU exception in kernel partially".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Otherwise the following calltrace will lead to a wrong lockdep warning: neigh_proxy_process() `- lock(neigh_table->proxy_queue.lock); arp_redo /* via tbl->proxy_redo */ arp_process neigh_event_ns neigh_update skb_queue_purge `- lock(neighbor->arp_queue.lock); This is not a deadlock actually, as neighbor table's proxy_queue and the neighbor's arp_queue are different queues. Lockdep thinks there is a deadlock as both queues are initialized with skb_queue_head_init() and thus have a common class. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* NFS: Ensure PG_writeback is cleared when writeback failsTrond Myklebust2007-04-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the writebacks are cancelled via nfs_cancel_dirty_list, or due to the memory allocation failing in nfs_flush_one/nfs_flush_multi, then we must ensure that the PG_writeback flag is cleared. Also ensure that we actually own the PG_writeback flag whenever we schedule a new writeback by making nfs_set_page_writeback() return the value of test_set_page_writeback(). The PG_writeback page flag ends up replacing the functionality of the PG_FLUSHING nfs_page flag, so we rip that out too.
