| * [NETFILTER]: ip6t_mh: drop piggyback payload packet on MH packetsMasahide NAKAMURA2007-02-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Regarding RFC3775, MH payload proto field should be IPPROTO_NONE. Otherwise it must be discarded (and the receiver should send ICMP error). We assume filter should drop such piggyback everytime to disallow slipping through firewall rules, even the final receiver will discard it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a prior patch, I introduced a sk_hash field (__sk_common.skc_hash) to let tcp lookups use one cache line per unmatched entry instead of two. We can also use sk_hash to speedup UDP part as well. We store in sk_hash the hnum value, and use sk->sk_hash (same cache line than 'next' pointer), instead of inet->num (different cache line) Note : We still have a false sharing problem for SMP machines, because sock_hold(sock) dirties the cache line containing the 'next' pointer. Not counting the udp_hash_lock rwlock. (did someone mentioned RCU ? :) ) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
