* [IPSEC]: Rename mode to outer_mode and add inner_modeHerbert Xu2007-10-171-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new field to xfrm states called inner_mode. The existing mode object is renamed to outer_mode. This is the first part of an attempt to fix inter-family transforms. As it is we always use the outer family when determining which mode to use. As a result we may end up shoving IPv4 packets into netfilter6 and vice versa. What we really want is to use the inner family for the first part of outbound processing and the outer family for the second part. For inbound processing we'd use the opposite pairing. I've also added a check to prevent silly combinations such as transport mode with inter-family transforms. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPSEC]: Store afinfo pointer in xfrm_modeHerbert Xu2007-10-171-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is convenient to have a pointer from xfrm_state to address-specific functions such as the output function for a family. Currently the address-specific policy code calls out to the xfrm state code to get those pointers when we could get it in an easier way via the state itself. This patch adds an xfrm_state_afinfo to xfrm_mode (since they're address-specific) and changes the policy code to use it. I've also added an owner field to do reference counting on the module providing the afinfo even though it isn't strictly necessary today since IPv6 can't be unloaded yet.

* [IPSEC]: Add missing BEET checksHerbert Xu2007-10-171-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently BEET mode does not reinject the packet back into the stack like tunnel mode does. Since BEET should behave just like tunnel mode this is incorrect. This patch fixes this by introducing a flags field to xfrm_mode that tells the IPsec code whether it should terminate and reinject the packet back into the stack. It then sets the flag for BEET and tunnel mode. I've also added a number of missing BEET checks elsewhere where we check whether a given mode is a tunnel or not.

* [IPSEC]: Move type and mode map into xfrm_state.cHerbert Xu2007-10-171-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The type and mode maps are only used by SAs, not policies. So it makes sense to move them from xfrm_policy.c into xfrm_state.c. This also allows us to mark xfrm_get_type/xfrm_put_type/xfrm_get_mode/xfrm_put_mode as static. The only other change I've made in the move is to get rid of the casts on the request_module call for types. They're unnecessary because C will promote them to ints anyway.

* [IPSEC]: Get nexthdr from caller in xfrm6_rcv_spiHerbert Xu2007-10-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Currently xfrm6_rcv_spi gets the nexthdr value itself from the packet. This means that we need to fix up the value in case we have a 4-on-6 tunnel. Moving this logic into the caller simplifies things and allows us to merge the code with IPv4. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [IPSEC]: Move tunnel parsing for IPv4 out of xfrm4_inputHerbert Xu2007-10-171-0/+8

* [NET]: Fix the race between sk_filter_(de|at)tach and sk_clone()Pavel Emelyanov2007-10-171-11/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The proposed fix is to delay the reference counter decrement until the quiescent state pass. This will give sk_clone() a chance to get the reference on the cloned filter. Regular sk_filter_uncharge can happen from the sk_free() only and there's no need in delaying the put - the socket is dead anyway and is to be release itself.

* [NET]: Move the filter releasing into a separate callPavel Emelyanov2007-10-171-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This is done merely as a preparation for the fix. The sk_filter_uncharge() unaccounts the filter memory and calls the sk_filter_release(), which in turn decrements the refcount anf frees the filter. The latter function will be required separately.

* [NET]: Introduce the sk_detach_filter() callPavel Emelyanov2007-10-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Filter is attached in a separate function, so do the same for filter detaching. This also removes one variable sock_setsockopt(). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [INET]: Remove no longer needed ->equal callbackPavel Emelyanov2007-10-172-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Since this callback is used to check for conflicts in hashtable when inserting a newly created frag queue, we can do the same by checking for matching the queue with the argument, used to create one.

* [INET]: Consolidate xxx_find() in fragment managementPavel Emelyanov2007-10-172-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Here we need another callback ->match to check whether the entry found in hash matches the key passed. The key used is the same as the creation argument for inet_frag_create. Yet again, this ->match is the same for netfilter and ipv6. Running a frew steps forward - this callback will later replace the ->equal one. Since the inet_frag_find() uses the already consolidated inet_frag_create() remove the xxx_frag_create from protocol codes. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [INET]: Consolidate xxx_frag_create()Pavel Emelyanov2007-10-172-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | This one uses the xxx_frag_intern() and xxx_frag_alloc() routines, which are already consolidated, so remove them from protocol code (as promised). The ->constructor callback is used to init the rest of the frag queue and it is the same for netfilter and ipv6. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [INET]: Consolidate xxx_frag_alloc()Pavel Emelyanov2007-10-171-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Just perform the kzalloc() allocation and setup common fields in the inet_frag_queue(). Then return the result to the caller to initialize the rest. The inet_frag_alloc() may return NULL, so check the return value before doing the container_of(). This looks ugly, but the xxx_frag_alloc() will be removed soon. The xxx_expire() timer callbacks are patches, because the argument is now the inet_frag_queue, not the protocol specific queue.

* [INET]: Consolidate xxx_frag_internPavel Emelyanov2007-10-172-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This routine checks for the existence of a given entry in the hash table and inserts the new one if needed. The ->equal callback is used to compare two frag_queue-s together, but this one is temporary and will be removed later. The netfilter code and the ipv6 one use the same routine to compare frags. The inet_frag_intern() always returns non-NULL pointer, so convert the inet_frag_queue into protocol specific one (with the container_of) without any checks.

For that reason every user that accesses the file server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately. Multiple users can share the same connection to the server. Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it depends on the client doing the permission checking. This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option 'access'): - attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u) If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree. As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works only with the 9P2000.u dialect. - allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>) Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt to access it will get EPERM error. - do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000) V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user. If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current one. Signed-off-by: Latchesar Ionkov <lucho@ionkov.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

| * | | x86: expand /proc/interrupts to include missing vectors, v2Joe Korty2007-10-172-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add missing IRQs and IRQ descriptions to /proc/interrupts. /proc/interrupts is most useful when it displays every IRQ vector in use by the system, not just those somebody thought would be interesting. This patch inserts the following vector displays to the i386 and x86_64 platforms, as appropriate: rescheduling interrupts TLB flush interrupts function call interrupts thermal event interrupts threshold interrupts spurious interrupts A threshold interrupt occurs when ECC memory correction is occuring at too high a frequency. Thresholds are used by the ECC hardware as occasional ECC failures are part of normal operation, but long sequences of ECC failures usually indicate a memory chip that is about to fail. Thermal event interrupts occur when a temperature threshold has been exceeded for some CPU chip. IIRC, a thermal interrupt is also generated when the temperature drops back to a normal level. A spurious interrupt is an interrupt that was raised then lowered by the device before it could be fully processed by the APIC. Hence the apic sees the interrupt but does not know what device it came from. For this case the APIC hardware will assume a vector of 0xff. Rescheduling, call, and TLB flush interrupts are sent from one CPU to another per the needs of the OS. Typically, their statistics would be used to discover if an interrupt flood of the given type has been occuring. AK: merged v2 and v4 which had some more tweaks AK: replace Local interrupts with Local timer interrupts AK: Fixed description of interrupt types.
