* [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
| | | | | | | | This patch adds a generic segmentation offload toggle that can be turned on/off for each net device. For now it only supports in TCPv4. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [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.

* [BRIDGE]: need to ref count the LLC sapStephen Hemminger2006-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | Bridge will OOPS on removal if other application has the SAP open.

* [NET]: Replace skb_pull/skb_postpull_rcsum with skb_pull_rcsumHerbert Xu2006-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're now starting to have quite a number of places that do skb_pull followed immediately by an skb_postpull_rcsum. We can merge these two operations into one function with skb_pull_rcsum. This makes sense since most pull operations on receive skb's need to update the checksum. I've decided to make this out-of-line since it is fairly big and the fast path where hardware checksums are enabled need to call csum_partial anyway. Since this is a brand new function we get to add an extra check on the len argument. As it is most callers of skb_pull ignore its return value which essentially means that there is no check on the len argument.
