* net: fix sk_forward_alloc corruptionEric Dumazet2009-10-301-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | On UDP sockets, we must call skb_free_datagram() with socket locked, or risk sk_forward_alloc corruption. This requirement is not respected in SUNRPC. Add a convenient helper, skb_free_datagram_locked() and use it in SUNRPC Reported-by: Francis Moreau <francis.moro@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: Fix IP_MULTICAST_IFEric Dumazet2009-10-191-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls. This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop. Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put(). If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index() function to avoid touching dev refcount.

* sit: fix off-by-one in ipip6_tunnel_get_prlSascha Hlusiak2009-09-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | When requesting all prl entries (kprl.addr == INADDR_ANY) and there are more prl entries than there is space passed from userspace, the existing code would always copy cmax+1 entries, which is more than can be handled. This patch makes the kernel copy only exactly cmax entries. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hlusiak <contact@saschahlusiak.de> Acked-By: Fred L. Templin <Fred.L.Templin@boeing.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: Make setsockopt() optlen be unsigned.David S. Miller2009-09-305-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | This provides safety against negative optlen at the type level instead of depending upon (sometimes non-trivial) checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in each and every implementation. Based upon work done by Arjan van de Ven and feedback from Linus Torvalds. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* Revert "sit: stateless autoconf for isatap"Sascha Hlusiak2009-09-262-59/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 645069299a1c7358cf7330afe293f07552f11a5d. While the code does not actually break anything, it does not completely follow RFC5214 yet. After talking back with Fred L. Templin, I agree that completing the ISATAP specific RS/RA code, would pollute the kernel a lot with code that is better implemented in userspace. The kernel should not send RS packages for ISATAP at all. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hlusiak <contact@saschahlusiak.de> Acked-by: Fred L. Templin <Fred.L.Templin@boeing.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* tunnel: eliminate recursion fieldEric Dumazet2009-09-242-15/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | It seems recursion field from "struct ip_tunnel" is not anymore needed. recursion prevention is done at the upper level (in dev_queue_xmit()), since we use HARD_TX_LOCK protection for tunnels. This avoids a cache line ping pong on "struct ip_tunnel" : This structure should be now mostly read on xmit and receive paths.

| * bonding: remap muticast addresses without using dev_close() and dev_open()Moni Shoua2009-09-152-0/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses. This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks: *. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat) and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. *. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing table, which might be unnecessary. The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

When a connection gets closed the 4-way method and the last ACK from the server gets dropped, the subsequent FINs from the client do not get ACKed because tcp_v6_send_response does not set the transport header pointer. This causes ah6_output to try to allocate a lot of memory, which typically fails, so the ACKs never make it out of the stack. I have reproduced the problem on kernel 2.6.7, but after looking at the latest kernel it seems the problem is still there. Signed-off-by: Cosmin Ratiu <cratiu@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

But fact is, the original GFP_KERNEL also sleeps. GFP_ATOMIC+yield() looks weird, but it is no worse the implicit sleep inside GFP_KERNEL. Both could loop endlessly under memory pressure.

Only if application sets IP_RECVERR, drops are reported to user (-ENOBUFS errors) and SNMP counters updated. IP_RECVERR is used to enable extended reliable error message passing, but these are not needed to update system wide SNMP stats. This patch changes things a bit to allow SNMP counters to be updated, regardless of IP_RECVERR being set or not on the socket. Example after an UDP tx flood # netstat -s ... IP: 1487048 outgoing packets dropped ... Udp: ... SndbufErrors: 1487048 send() syscalls, do however still return an OK status, to not break applications. Note : send() manual page explicitly says for -ENOBUFS error : "The output queue for a network interface was full. This generally indicates that the interface has stopped sending, but may be caused by transient congestion. (Normally, this does not occur in Linux. Packets are just silently dropped when a device queue overflows.) " This is not true for IP_RECVERR enabled sockets : a send() syscall that hit a qdisc drop returns an ENOBUFS error.

Embed it directly into struct netns_ipv6. For that: * move struct dst_ops into separate header to fix circular dependencies I honestly tried not to, it's pretty impossible to do other way * drop dynamical allocation, allocate together with netns For a change, remove struct dst_ops::dst_net, it's deducible by using container_of() given dst_ops pointer.

This patch allows the Neighbor Cache to be updated in these cases, while still avoiding any modification to routes or link parameters. This continues to satisfy RFC 4861, since any entry created in the Neighbor Cache as the result of a received Router Advertisement is still placed in the STALE state.

If fragmentation is needed on the way, the IPv4 pmtu gets adjusted, the ipv6 package will be resent eventually, using the new and lower mtu and everyone is happy. If the frag_off parameter is unset, the mtu for the tunnel will be derived from the tunnel device or the ipv6 pmtu, which might be higher than the ipv4 pmtu. In that case we must allow the fragmentation of the IPv4 packet because the IPv6 mtu wouldn't 'learn' from the adjusted IPv4 pmtu, resulting in frequent icmp_frag_needed and package loss on the IPv6 layer. This patch allows fragmentation when tunnel was created with parameter nopmtudisc, like in ipip/gre tunnels. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hlusiak <contact@saschahlusiak.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch changes the meaning of -1 from assigning 255 to mean the RFC 2460 default, which at the same time allows to satisfy clearing the sticky TCLASS option as per RFC 3542, 6.5. (When passing -1 as ancillary data, the fallback remains np->tclass, which has either been set via socket options, or contains the default value.)
