The wrong nla_*() functions were used. It also fix a sparse warning about a flag test (field i_flags). This field is used in this file like a local flag only, so it is more an u16 (gre uses it as a be16). This sparse warning was already there before the patch that add netlink management, the code has just been moved.

SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost) TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary retransmits. Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields : num_retrans : number of retransmit num_timeout : number of timeouts num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout, regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to compute the exponential timeout. Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded. Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN. Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits. Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

* tcp: resets are misroutedAlexey Kuznetsov2012-10-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit e2446eaa ("tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case").. tcp resets are always lost, when routing is asymmetric. Yes, backing out that patch will result in misrouting of resets for dead connections which used interface binding when were alive, but we actually cannot do anything here. What's died that's died and correct handling normal unbound connections is obviously a priority. Comment to comment: > This has few benefits: > 1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that. It was done to route resets for IPv6 link local addresses. It was a mistake to do so for global addresses. The patch fixes this as well. Actually, the problem appears to be even more serious than guaranteed loss of resets. As reported by Sergey Soloviev <sol@eqv.ru>, those misrouted resets create a lot of arp traffic and huge amount of unresolved arp entires putting down to knees NAT firewalls which use asymmetric routing.

* ipv6: GRO should be ECN friendlyEric Dumazet2012-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPv4 side of the problem was addressed in commit a9e050f4e7f9d (net: tcp: GRO should be ECN friendly) This patch does the same, but for IPv6 : A Traffic Class mismatch doesnt mean flows are different, but instead should force a flush of previous packets. This patch removes artificial packet reordering problem. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * ipv6: release reference of ip6_null_entry's dst entry in __ip6_del_rtGao feng2012-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | as we hold dst_entry before we call __ip6_del_rt, so we should alse call dst_release not only return -ENOENT when the rt6_info is ip6_null_entry. and we already hold the dst entry, so I think it's safe to call dst_release out of the write-read lock.

| * ipv6: don't add link local route when there is no link local addressNicolas Dichtel2012-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), a route to fe80::/64 is added in the main table: unreachable fe80::/64 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101 This route does not match any prefix (no fe80:: address on lo). In fact, addrconf_dev_config() will not add link local address because this function filters interfaces by type. If the link local address is added manually, the route to the link local prefix will be automatically added by addrconf_add_linklocal(). Note also, that this route is not deleted when the address is removed. After looking at the code, it seems that addrconf_add_lroute() is redundant with addrconf_add_linklocal(), because this function will add the link local route when the link local address is configured.

* tcp: gro: add checksuming helpersEric Dumazet2012-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | skb with CHECKSUM_NONE cant currently be handled by GRO, and we notice this deep in GRO stack in tcp[46]_gro_receive() But there are cases where GRO can be a benefit, even with a lack of checksums. This preliminary work is needed to add GRO support to tunnels. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* ipv6: del unreachable route when an addr is deleted on loNicolas Dichtel2012-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an address is added on loopback (ip -6 a a 2002::1/128 dev lo), two routes are added: - one in the local table: local 2002::1 via :: dev lo proto none metric 0 - one the in main table (for the prefix): unreachable 2002::1 dev lo proto kernel metric 256 error -101 When the address is deleted, the route inserted in the main table remains because we use rt6_lookup(), which returns NULL when dst->error is set, which is the case here! Thus, it is better to use ip6_route_lookup() to avoid this kind of filter. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
