* IPV6: Fix default gateway criteria wrt. HIGH/LOW preference radv optionPedro Ribeiro2008-10-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem observed: In IPv6, in the presence of multiple routers candidates to default gateway in one segment, each sending a different value of preference, the Linux hosts connected to the segment weren't selecting the right one in all the combinations possible of LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH preference. This patch changes two files: include/linux/icmpv6.h Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place (as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as "home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function) net/ipv6/ndisc.c Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the router preference in the flags of the routing table Result: With this two fixes applied, the default route used by the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference in router advertisements Signed-off-by: Pedro Ribeiro <pribeiro@net.ipl.pt> Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * ath9k/mac80211: disallow fragmentation in ath9k, report to userspaceJohannes Berg2008-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As I've reported, ath9k currently fails utterly when fragmentation is enabled. This makes ath9k "support" hardware fragmentation by not supporting fragmentation at all to avoid the double-free issue. The patch also changes mac80211 to report errors from the driver operation to userspace. That hack in ath9k should be removed once the rate control algorithm it has is fixed, and we can at that time consider removing the hw fragmentation support entirely since it's not used by any driver.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When debugfs_create_dir fails, sta_info_debugfs_add_work will not terminate because it will find the same station again and again. This is possible whenever debugfs fails for whatever reason; one reason is a race condition in mac80211, unfortunately we cannot do much about it, so just document it, it just means some station may be missing from debugfs.

* | netfilter: ctnetlink: remove bogus module dependency between ctnetlink and ↵Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | nf_nat This patch removes the module dependency between ctnetlink and nf_nat by means of an indirect call that is initialized when nf_nat is loaded. Now, nf_conntrack_netlink only requires nf_conntrack and nfnetlink. This patch puts nfnetlink_parse_nat_setup_hook into the nf_conntrack_core to avoid dependencies between ctnetlink, nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack_ipv6. This patch also introduces the function ctnetlink_change_nat that is only invoked from the creation path. Actually, the nat handling cannot be invoked from the update path since this is not allowed. By introducing this function, we remove the useless nat handling in the update path and we avoid deadlock-prone code. This patch also adds the required EAGAIN logic for nfnetlink.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nir Tzachar <nir.tzachar@gmail.com> reported a warning when sending fragments over loopback with NAT: [ 6658.338121] WARNING: at net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_nat_standalone.c:89 nf_nat_fn+0x33/0x155() The reason is that defragmentation is skipped for already tracked connections. This is wrong in combination with NAT and ip_conntrack actually had some ifdefs to avoid this behaviour when NAT is compiled in.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes the RX/TX byte counters for IPIP, GRE and SIT more consistent. Previously we included the external IP headers on the way out but not when the packet is inbound. The new scheme is to count payload only in both directions. For IPIP and SIT this simply means the exclusion of the external IP header. For GRE this means that we exclude the GRE header as well.

This is in prepartion of using rtnl_link where we'll need to make the MTU setting conditional on whether the user has supplied an MTU. This also requires the move of the ipgre_tunnel_bind_dev call out of the dev->init function so that we can access the user parameters later. This patch also adds a check to prevent setting the MTU below the minimum of 68. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* gre: Use needed_headroomHerbert Xu2008-10-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have dev->needed_headroom, we can use it instead of having a bogus dev->hard_header_len. This also allows us to include dev->hard_header_len in the MTU computation so that when we do have a meaningful hard_harder_len in future it is included automatically in figuring out the MTU. Incidentally, this fixes a bug where we ignored the needed_headroom field of the underlying device in calculating our own hard_header_len.

This chip only supports the Header and Trailer tagging formats, and we use it in Trailer mode since that mode is slightly easier to handle than Header mode.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This adds support for the Trailer switch tagging format. This is another tagging that doesn't explicitly mark tagged packets with a distinct ethertype, so that we need to add a similar hack in the receive path as for the Original DSA tagging format.

* dsa: add support for the Marvell 88E6131 switch chipLennert Buytenhek2008-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for the Marvell 88E6131 switch chip. This chip only supports the original (ethertype-less) DSA tagging format. On the 88E6131, there is a PHY Polling Unit (PPU) which has exclusive access to each of the PHYs's MII management registers. If we want to talk to the PHYs from software, we have to disable the PPU and wait for it to complete its current transaction before we can do so, and we need to re-enable the PPU afterwards to make sure that the switch will notice changes in link state and speed on the individual ports as they occur. Since disabling the PPU is rather slow, and since MII management accesses are typically done in bursts, this patch keeps the PPU disabled for 10ms after a software access completes. This makes handling the PPU slightly more complex, but speeds up something like running ethtool on one of the switch slave interfaces from ~300ms to ~30ms on typical hardware.

* dsa: add support for original DSA tagging formatLennert Buytenhek2008-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the DSA switches currently in the field do not support the Ethertype DSA tagging format that one of the previous patches added support for, but only the original DSA tagging format. The original DSA tagging format carries the same information as the Ethertype DSA tagging format, but with the difference that it does not have an ethertype field. In other words, when receiving a packet that is tagged with an original DSA tag, there is no way of telling in eth_type_trans() that this packet is in fact a DSA-tagged packet. This patch adds a hook into eth_type_trans() which is only compiled in if support for a switch chip that doesn't support Ethertype DSA is selected, and which checks whether there is a DSA switch driver instance attached to this network device which uses the old tag format. If so, it sets the protocol field to ETH_P_DSA without looking at the packet, so that the packet ends up in the right place.

* net: Distributed Switch Architecture protocol supportLennert Buytenhek2008-10-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Distributed Switch Architecture is a protocol for managing hardware switch chips. It consists of a set of MII management registers and commands to configure the switch, and an ethernet header format to signal which of the ports of the switch a packet was received from or is intended to be sent to. The switches that this driver supports are typically embedded in access points and routers, and a typical setup with a DSA switch looks something like this: +-----------+ +-----------+ | | RGMII | | | +-------+ +------ 1000baseT MDI ("WAN") | | | 6-port +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN1") | CPU | | ethernet +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN2") | |MIImgmt| switch +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN3") | +-------+ w/5 PHYs +------ 1000baseT MDI ("LAN4") | | | | +-----------+ +-----------+ The switch driver presents each port on the switch as a separate network interface to Linux, polls the switch to maintain software link state of those ports, forwards MII management interface accesses to those network interfaces (e.g. as done by ethtool) to the switch, and exposes the switch's hardware statistics counters via the appropriate Linux kernel interfaces. This initial patch supports the MII management interface register layout of the Marvell 88E6123, 88E6161 and 88E6165 switch chips, and supports the "Ethertype DSA" packet tagging format. (There is no officially registered ethertype for the Ethertype DSA packet format, so we just grab a random one. The ethertype to use is programmed into the switch, and the switch driver uses the value of ETH_P_EDSA for this, so this define can be changed at any time in the future if the one we chose is allocated to another protocol or if Ethertype DSA gets its own officially registered ethertype, and everything will continue to work.)
