* [BRIDGE]: Disable SG/GSO if TX checksum is offHerbert Xu2006-08-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When the bridge recomputes features, it does not maintain the constraint that SG/GSO must be off if TX checksum is off. This patch adds that constraint. On a completely unrelated note, I've also added TSO6 and TSO_ECN feature bits if GSO is enabled on the underlying device through the new NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE macro.

* [NETFILTER]: ulog: fix panic on SMP kernelsMark Huang2006-08-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix kernel panic on various SMP machines. The culprit is a null ub->skb in ulog_send(). If ulog_timer() has already been scheduled on one CPU and is spinning on the lock, and ipt_ulog_packet() flushes the queue on another CPU by calling ulog_send() right before it exits, there will be no skbuff when ulog_timer() acquires the lock and calls ulog_send(). Cancelling the timer in ulog_send() doesn't help because it has already been scheduled and is running on the first CPU. Similar problem exists in ebt_ulog.c and nfnetlink_log.c.

* [NET] gso: Add skb_is_gsoHerbert Xu2006-07-08
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the wrapper function skb_is_gso which can be used instead of directly testing skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size.

* [NET]: Added GSO header verificationHerbert Xu2006-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When GSO packets come from an untrusted source (e.g., a Xen guest domain), we need to verify the header integrity before passing it to the hardware. Since the first step in GSO is to verify the header, we can reuse that code by adding a new bit to gso_type: SKB_GSO_DODGY. Packets with this bit set can only be fed directly to devices with the corresponding bit NETIF_F_GSO_ROBUST. If the device doesn't have that bit, then the skb is fed to the GSO engine which will allow the packet to be sent to the hardware if it passes the header check. This patch changes the sg flag to a full features flag. The same method can be used to implement TSO ECN support. We simply have to mark packets with CWR set with SKB_GSO_ECN so that only hardware with a corresponding NETIF_F_TSO_ECN can accept them. The GSO engine can either fully segment the packet, or segment the first MTU and pass the rest to the hardware for further segmentation.

* [NET]: Added GSO toggleHerbert Xu2006-06-23

* [NET]: Merge TSO/UFO fields in sk_buffHerbert Xu2006-06-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP). So let's merge them. They were used to tell the protocol of a packet. This function has been subsumed by the new gso_type field. This is essentially a set of netdev feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific skb. As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features field. I've made gso_type a conjunction. The idea is that you have a base type (e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features. For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN. All TSO packets with CWR set would have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4. This means that only the CWR packets need to be emulated in software. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [BRIDGE]: Add support for NETIF_F_HW_CSUM devicesHerbert Xu2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | As it is the bridge will only ever declare NETIF_F_IP_CSUM even if all its constituent devices support NETIF_F_HW_CSUM. This patch fixes this by supporting the first one out of NETIF_F_NO_CSUM, NETIF_F_HW_CSUM, and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM that is supported by all constituent devices.

* [NET]: Add NETIF_F_GEN_CSUM and NETIF_F_ALL_CSUMHerbert Xu2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | The current stack treats NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_NO_CSUM identically so we test for them in quite a few places. For the sake of brevity, I'm adding the macro NETIF_F_GEN_CSUM for these two. We also test the disjunct of NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and the other two in various places, for that purpose I've added NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM.
