* ipv6: protocol for address routesStephen Hemminger2008-08-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes a problem spotted with zebra, but not sure if it is necessary a kernel problem. With IPV6 when an address is added to an interface, Zebra creates a duplicate RIB entry, one as a connected route, and other as a kernel route. When an address is added to an interface the RTN_NEWADDR message causes Zebra to create a connected route. In IPV4 when an address is added to an interface a RTN_NEWROUTE message is set to user space with the protocol RTPROT_KERNEL. Zebra ignores these messages, because it already has the connected route. The problem is that route created in IPV6 has route protocol == RTPROT_BOOT. Was this a design decision or a bug? This fixes it. Same patch applies to both net-2.6 and stable.

* net: convert BUG_TRAP to generic WARN_ONIlpo Järvinen2008-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Removes legacy reinvent-the-wheel type thing. The generic machinery integrates much better to automated debugging aids such as kerneloops.org (and others), and is unambiguous due to better naming. Non-intuively BUG_TRAP() is actually equal to WARN_ON() rather than BUG_ON() though some might actually be promoted to BUG_ON() but I left that to future. I could make at least one BUILD_BUG_ON conversion. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * ipv6: fix race between ipv6_del_addr and DAD timerAndrey Vagin2008-07-08

Maybe some other nasty things, but we caught only the oops in gc so far. The solution is to disarm the ifp->timer before flushing the rt from it.

It keeps the global label tables, ip6addrlbl_table, but adds a 'net' member to each ip6addrlbl_entry. This new member is taken into account when matching labels. Changelog ========= * v1: Initial version * v2: * Minize the penalty when network namespaces are not configured: * the 'net' member is added only if CONFIG_NET_NS is defined. This saves space when network namespaces are not configured. * 'net' value is retrieved with the inlined function ip6addrlbl_net() that always return &init_net when CONFIG_NET_NS is not defined. * 'net' member in ip6addrlbl_entry renamed to the less generic 'lbl_net' name (helps code search).

* [IPV6] ADDRCONF: Check range of prefix lengthThomas Graf2008-06-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As of now, the prefix length is not vaildated when adding or deleting addresses. The value is passed directly into the inet6_ifaddr structure and later passed on to memcmp() as length indicator which relies on the value never to exceed 128 (bits). Due to the missing check, the currently code allows for any 8 bit value to be passed on as prefix length while using the netlink interface, and any 32 bit value while using the ioctl interface.
