* [NET]: Introducing socket mark socket option.Laszlo Attila Toth2008-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | A userspace program may wish to set the mark for each packets its send without using the netfilter MARK target. Changing the mark can be used for mark based routing without netfilter or for packet filtering. It requires CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.

* [INET]: Prevent out-of-sync truesize on ip_fragment slow pathHerbert Xu2008-01-31
| | | | | | | | | | | When ip_fragment has to hit the slow path the value of skb->truesize may go out of sync because we would have updated it without changing the packet length. This violates the constraints on truesize. This patch postpones the update of skb->truesize to prevent this. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NETNS]: Add namespace for ICMP replying code.Denis V. Lunev2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | All needed API is done, the namespace is available when required from the device on the DST entry from the incoming packet. So, just replace init_net with proper namespace.

* [NETFILTER]: Introduce NF_INET_ hook valuesPatrick McHardy2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | The IPv4 and IPv6 hook values are identical, yet some code tries to figure out the "correct" value by looking at the address family. Introduce NF_INET_* values for both IPv4 and IPv6. The old values are kept in a #ifndef __KERNEL__ section for userspace compatibility.

* [IPV4]: Add ip_local_outHerbert Xu2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most callers of the LOCAL_OUT chain will set the IP packet length and header checksum before doing so. They also share the same output function dst_output. This patch creates a new function called ip_local_out which does all of that and converts the appropriate users over to it. Apart from removing duplicate code, it will also help in merging the IPsec output path once the same thing is done for IPv6.

* [INET]: Fix truesize setting in ip_append_dataHerbert Xu2008-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it is ip_append_data only counts page fragments to the skb that allocated it. As such it means that the first skb gets hit with a 4K charge even though it might have only used a fraction of it while all subsequent skb's that use the same page gets away with no charge at all. This bug was exposed by the UDP accounting patch.

* [NET]: Treat the sign of the result of skb_headroom() consistentlyChuck Lever2007-10-24

* [IPV4]: Uninline netfilter okfnsPatrick McHardy2007-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we don't pass double skb pointers to nf_hook_slow anymore, gcc can generate tail calls for some of the netfilter hook okfn invocations, so there is no need to inline the functions anymore. This caused huge code bloat since we ended up with one inlined version and one out-of-line version since we pass the address to nf_hook_slow. Before: text data bss dec hex filename 8997385 1016524 524652 10538561 a0ce41 vmlinux After: text data bss dec hex filename 8994009 1016524 524652 10535185 a0c111 vmlinux ------------------------------------------------------- -3376 All cases have been verified to generate tail-calls with and without netfilter. The okfns in ipmr and xfrm4_input still remain inline because gcc can't generate tail-calls for them. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPV4]: Add ICMPMsgStats MIB (RFC 4293)David L Stevens2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Background: RFC 4293 deprecates existing individual, named ICMP type counters to be replaced with the ICMPMsgStatsTable. This table includes entries for both IPv4 and IPv6, and requires counting of all ICMP types, whether or not the machine implements the type. These patches "remove" (but not really) the existing counters, and replace them with the ICMPMsgStats tables for v4 and v6. It includes the named counters in the /proc places they were, but gets the values for them from the new tables. It also counts packets generated from raw socket output (e.g., OutEchoes, MLD queries, RA's from radvd, etc). Changes: 1) create icmpmsg_statistics mib 2) create icmpv6msg_statistics mib 3) modify existing counters to use these 4) modify /proc/net/snmp to add "IcmpMsg" with all ICMP types listed by number for easy SNMP parsing 5) modify /proc/net/snmp printing for "Icmp" to get the named data from new counters.

* [NET]: IPV6 checksum offloading in network devicesStephen Hemminger2007-07-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing model for checksum offload does not correctly handle devices that can offload IPV4 and IPV6 only. The NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag implies device can do any arbitrary protocol. This patch: * adds NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM for those devices * fixes bnx2 and tg3 devices that need it * add NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM to ipv6 output (incl GSO) * fixes assumptions about NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM in nat * adjusts bridge union of checksumming computation Signed-off-by: David S.

* [TCP]: Honour sk_bound_dev_if in tcp_v4_send_ackPatrick McHardy2007-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | A time_wait socket inherits sk_bound_dev_if from the original socket, but it is not used when sending ACK packets using ip_send_reply.

* [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau2007-02-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).
