| * netlabel: Add configuration support for local labelingPaul Moore2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the necessary NetLabel support for the new CIPSO mapping, CIPSO_V4_MAP_LOCAL, which allows full LSM label/context support. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com> Reviewed-by: James Morris <jmorris@namei.org>
| * cipso: Add support for native local labeling and fixup mapping namesPaul Moore2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch accomplishes three minor tasks: add a new tag type for local labeling, rename the CIPSO_V4_MAP_STD define to CIPSO_V4_MAP_TRANS and replace some of the CIPSO "magic numbers" with constants from the header file. The first change allows CIPSO to support full LSM labels/contexts, not just MLS attributes. The second change brings the mapping names inline with what userspace is using, compatibility is preserved since we don't actually change the value. The last change is to aid readability and help prevent mistakes. Signed-off-by: Paul Moore <paul.moore@hp.com>
| * selinux: Set socket NetLabel based on connection endpointPaul Moore2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previous work enabled the use of address based NetLabel selectors, which while highly useful, brought the potential for additional per-packet overhead when used. This patch attempts to solve that by applying NetLabel socket labels when sockets are connect()'d. This should alleviate the per-packet NetLabel labeling for all connected sockets (yes, it even works for connected DGRAM sockets).

| * netlabel: Add functionality to set the security attributes of a packetPaul Moore2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch builds upon the new NetLabel address selector functionality by providing the NetLabel KAPI and CIPSO engine support needed to enable the new packet-based labeling. The only new addition to the NetLabel KAPI at this point is shown below: * int netlbl_skbuff_setattr(skb, family, secattr) ... and is designed to be called from a Netfilter hook after the packet's IP header has been populated such as in the FORWARD or LOCAL_OUT hooks. This patch also provides the necessary SELinux hooks to support this new functionality. Smack support is not currently included due to uncertainty regarding the permissions needed to expand the Smack network access controls.

The changes here only affect the core NetLabel infrastructre, changes to the NetLabel KAPI and individial protocol engines are also required but are split out into a different patch to ease review.

| * netlabel: Add a generic way to create ordered linked lists of network addrsPaul Moore2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Create an ordered IP address linked list mechanism similar to the core kernel's linked list construct. The idea behind this list functionality is to create an extensibile linked list ordered by IP address mask to ease the matching of network addresses. The linked list is ordered with larger address masks at the front of the list and shorter address masks at the end to facilitate overriding network entries with individual host or subnet entries.

| * netlabel: Replace protocol/NetLabel linking with refrerence countsPaul Moore2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | NetLabel has always had a list of backpointers in the CIPSO DOI definition structure which pointed to the NetLabel LSM domain mapping structures which referenced the CIPSO DOI struct. The rationale for this was that when an administrator removed a CIPSO DOI from the system all of the associated NetLabel LSM domain mappings should be removed as well; a list of backpointers made this a simple operation. Unfortunately, while the backpointers did make the removal easier they were a bit of a mess from an implementation point of view which was making further development difficult. Since the removal of a CIPSO DOI is a realtively rare event it seems to make sense to remove this backpointer list as the optimization was hurting us more then it was helping. However, we still need to be able to track when a CIPSO DOI definition is being used so replace the backpointer list with a reference count. In order to preserve the current functionality of removing the associated LSM domain mappings when a CIPSO DOI is removed we walk the LSM domain mapping table, removing the relevant entries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After some discussions with the Smack folks, well just Casey, I now have a better idea of what Smack wants out of NetLabel in the future so I think it is now safe to do some API "pruning". If another LSM comes along that needs this functionality we can always add it back in, but I don't see any LSMs on the horizon which might make use of these functions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix a few sparse warnings. One dealt with a RCU lock being held on error, another dealt with an improper type caused by a signed/unsigned mixup while the rest appeared to be caused by using rcu_dereference() in a list_for_each_entry_rcu() call. The latter probably isn't a big deal, but I derive a certain pleasure from knowing that the net/netlabel is nice and clean.

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

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.)

| * tcp: Fix tcp_hybla zero congestion window growth with small rho and large cwnd.Daniele Lacamera2008-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because of rounding, in certain conditions, i.e. when in congestion avoidance state rho is smaller than 1/128 of the current cwnd, TCP Hybla congestion control starves and the cwnd is kept constant forever. This patch forces an increment by one segment after #send_cwnd calls without increments(newreno behavior). Signed-off-by: Daniele Lacamera <root@danielinux.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * net: Fix netdev_run_todo dead-lockHerbert Xu2008-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances of the error unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free a reference to the device waited on by the first instance. The problem is really quite silly. We were trying to create parallelism where none was required. As netdev_run_todo always follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait for the very ones that you've added and be done with it. There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock. This is exactly what the following patch does. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * tcp: Fix possible double-ack w/ user dmaAli Saidi2008-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Ali Saidi <saidi@engin.umich.edu> When TCP receive copy offload is enabled it's possible that tcp_rcv_established() will cause two acks to be sent for a single packet. In the case that a tcp_dma_early_copy() is successful, copied_early is set to true which causes tcp_cleanup_rbuf() to be called early which can send an ack. Further along in tcp_rcv_established(), __tcp_ack_snd_check() is called and will schedule a delayed ACK. If no packets are processed before the delayed ack timer expires the packet will be acked twice. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UPPatrick McHardy2008-10-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN device down that is in promiscous mode: When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented a second time by the vlan_change_rx_flags() callback. The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags() is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP. Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the intended behaviour.
