| | * | | | | | | | | | | | | | netfilter: tproxy: remove nf_tproxy_core, keep tw sk assigned to skbFlorian Westphal2013-07-31

Nowadays we have tcp early demux and its sock_edemux destructor in networking core which can be used instead. Thanks to early demux changes the input path now also handles "skb->sk is tw socket" correctly, so this no longer needs the special handling introduced with commit d503b30bd648b3cb4e5f50b65d27e389960cc6d9 (netfilter: tproxy: do not assign timewait sockets to skb->sk). Thus: - move assign_sock function to where its needed - don't prevent timewait sockets from being assigned to the skb - remove nf_tproxy_core.

A list of bugs we found in the current implementation: 1) Properly support uncompression of short-address based IPv6 addresses (instead of basically copying garbage) 2) Fix use and uncompression of long-addresses based IPv6 addresses 3) Add missing ff:fe00 in the case of SAM/DAM = 2 and M = 0 Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <alex.aring@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Werner Almesberger <werner@almesberger.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

However when a 6lowpan packet compresses link-local addresses based on link-layer addresses, the processing function relies on the skb mac control block to find the related link-layer address. This patch copies the control block from the first fragment into the newly allocated skb to keep a trace of the link-layer addresses in case of a link-local compressed address.

The idea behind this is that the estimate is too large to trigger fast recovery (e.g., due to a IP path change). But for example if the sender only had 2 packets outstanding, then a timeout doesn't tell much about reordering. A sender that learns about reordering on big writes and loses packets on small writes will end up falsely retransmitting again and again, especially when reordering is more likely on big writes. Therefore the sender should only suspect that tp->reordering is too high if it could have gone into fast recovery with the (lower) default estimate.

Linville says: ==================== This is a batch of updates intended for 3.12. It is mostly driver stuff, although Johannes Berg and Simon Wunderlich make a good showing with mac80211 bits (particularly some work on 5/10 MHz channel support). The usual suspects are mostly represented. There are lots of updates to iwlwifi, ath9k, ath10k, mwifiex, rt2x00, wil6210, as usual. The bcma bus gets some love this time, as do cw1200, iwl4965, and a few other bits here and there. I don't think there is much unusual here, FWIW. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

There are some rates in reduced bandwidth modes which can't be represented as multiples of 500kbps, like 2.25 MBit/s in 5 MHz mode. The standard suggests to round up to the next multiple of 500kbps, just do that in mac80211 as well.

Furthermore, add rx status flags to allow drivers to report when they received data on 5 or 10 MHz channels.

Therefore the reception of these unwanted packets causes unnecessary processing and power consumption. Packet coalesce feature helps to reduce number of received interrupts to host by buffering these packets in firmware/hardware for some predefined time. Received interrupt will be generated when one of the following events occur. a) Expiration of hardware timer whose expiration time is set to maximum coalescing delay of matching coalesce rule. b) Coalescing buffer in hardware reaches it's limit. c) Packet doesn't match any of the configured coalesce rules. This patch adds set/get configuration support for packet coalesce. User needs to configure following parameters for creating a coalesce rule. a) Maximum coalescing delay b) List of packet patterns which needs to be matched c) Condition for coalescence. pattern 'match' or 'no match' Multiple such rules can be created. This feature needs to be advertised during driver initialization. Drivers are supposed to do required firmware/hardware settings based on user configuration.
