2008-12-16ipv6: fix the outgoing interface selection order in udpv6_sendmsg()Yang Hongyang
1.When no interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky optionis is used. RFC3542: 6.7. Summary of Outgoing Interface Selection This document and [RFC-3493] specify various methods that affect the selection of the packet's outgoing interface. This subsection summarizes the ordering among those in order to ensure deterministic behavior. For a given outgoing packet on a given socket, the outgoing interface is determined in the following order: 1. if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface is used. 2. otherwise, if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option, the interface is used.

2008-12-16ipv6: fix the return interface index when get it while no message is receivedYang Hongyang
When get receiving interface index while no message is received, the the value seted with setsockopt() should be returned. RFC 3542: Issuing getsockopt() for the above options will return the sticky option value i.e., the value set with setsockopt(). If no sticky option value has been set getsockopt() will return the following values: - For the IPV6_PKTINFO option, it will return an in6_pktinfo structure with ipi6_addr being in6addr_any and ipi6_ifindex being zero.

2008-12-15ethtool: Add GGRO and SGRO opsHerbert Xu
This patch adds the ethtool ops to enable and disable GRO. It also makes GRO depend on RX checksum offload much the same as how TSO depends on SG support. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-12-15tcp: Add GRO supportHerbert Xu
This patch adds the TCP-specific portion of GRO. The criterion for merging is extremely strict (the TCP header must match exactly apart from the checksum) so as to allow refragmentation. Otherwise this is pretty much identical to LRO, except that we support the merging of ECN packets. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-12-15net: Add skb_gro_receiveHerbert Xu
This patch adds the helper skb_gro_receive to merge packets for GRO. The current method is to allocate a new header skb and then chain the original packets to its frag_list. This is done to make it easier to integrate into the existing GSO framework. In future as GSO is moved into the drivers, we can undo this and simply chain the original packets together.

2008-12-15ipv4: Add GRO infrastructureHerbert Xu
This patch adds GRO support for IPv4. The criteria for merging is more stringent than LRO, in particular, we require all fields in the IP header to be identical except for the length, ID and checksum. In addition, the ID must form an arithmetic sequence with a difference of one. The ID requirement might seem overly strict, however, most hardware TSO solutions already obey this rule. Linux itself also obeys this whether GSO is in use or not. In future we could relax this rule by storing the IDs (or rather making sure that we don't drop them when pulling the aggregate skb's tail).

2008-12-15net: Add Generic Receive Offload infrastructureHerbert Xu
This patch adds the top-level GRO (Generic Receive Offload) infrastructure. This is pretty similar to LRO except that this is protocol-independent. Instead of holding packets in an lro_mgr structure, they're now held in napi_struct. For drivers that intend to use this, they can set the NETIF_F_GRO bit and call napi_gro_receive instead of netif_receive_skb or just call netif_rx. The latter will call napi_receive_skb automatically. When napi_gro_receive is used, the driver must either call napi_complete/napi_rx_complete, or call napi_gro_flush in softirq context if the driver uses the primitives __napi_complete/__napi_rx_complete. Protocols will set the gro_receive and gro_complete function pointers in order to participate in this scheme. In addition to the packet, gro_receive will get a list of currently held packets. Each packet in the list has a same_flow field which is non-zero if it is a potential match for the new packet. For each packet that may match, they also have a flush field which is non-zero if the held packet must not be merged with the new packet. Once gro_receive has determined that the new skb matches a held packet, the held packet may be processed immediately if the new skb cannot be merged with it. In this case gro_receive should return the pointer to the existing skb in gro_list. Otherwise the new skb should be merged into the existing packet and NULL should be returned, unless the new skb makes it impossible for any further merges to be made (e.g., FIN packet) where the merged skb should be returned. Whenever the skb is merged into an existing entry, the gro_receive function should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->same_flow. Note that if an skb merely matches an existing entry but can't be merged with it, then this shouldn't be set. If gro_receive finds it pointless to hold the new skb for future merging, it should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush. Held packets will be flushed by napi_gro_flush which is called by napi_complete and napi_rx_complete. Currently held packets are stored in a singly liked list just like LRO. The list is limited to a maximum of 8 entries. In future, this may be expanded to use a hash table to allow more flows to be held for merging.

2008-12-15net: Add frag_list support to GSOHerbert Xu
This patch allows GSO to handle frag_list in a limited way for the purposes of allowing packets merged by GRO to be refragmented on output. Most hardware won't (and aren't expected to) support handling GRO frag_list packets directly. Therefore we will perform GSO in software for those cases. However, for drivers that can support it (such as virtual NICs) we may not have to segment the packets at all. Whether the added overhead of GRO/GSO is worthwhile for bridges and routers when weighed against the benefit of potentially increasing the MTU within the host is still an open question. However, for the case of host nodes this is undoubtedly a win. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-12-15net: Add frag_list support to skb_segmentHerbert Xu
This patch adds limited support for handling frag_list packets in skb_segment. The intention is to support GRO (Generic Receive Offload) packets which will be constructed by chaining normal packets using frag_list. As such we require all frag_list members terminate on exact MSS boundaries. This is checked using BUG_ON. As there should only be one producer in the kernel of such packets, namely GRO, this requirement should not be difficult to maintain.

2008-12-12mac80211: Disable requests for new scans in AP modeJouni Malinen
AP mode operations are seriously affected if mac80211 runs through a multi-second scan while the AP is trying to send Beacon frames on the operation channel. While this could be implemented in a way that does not cause too many problems, it is not very simple and will require synchronization with Beacon frame scheduling in the drivers (scan one channel at a time between Beacon frames). Furthermore, such scanning takes quite a bit longer time and existing userspace applications would be likely to timeout while waiting for the results. For now, just refuse requests for new scans (SIOCSIWSCAN) when in AP mode. In practice, this moves the rejection from iwl* drivers into mac80211 to make it apply to every mac80211-based driver. This issue shows up in associated stations getting disconnected when something (e.g., Network Manager) requests a scan while the interface is in AP mode. When doing this continuously (e.g., NM does it every 120 seconds), the network gets close to useless.

This last patch makes the appropriate changes to use and propagate the network namespace where needed in IPv6 multicast forwarding code. This consists mainly in replacing all the remaining init_net occurences with current netns pointer retrieved from sockets, net devices or mfc6_caches depending on the routines' contexts. Some routines receive a new 'struct net' parameter to propagate the current netns: * ip6mr_get_route * ip6mr_cache_report * ip6mr_cache_find * ip6mr_cache_unresolved * mif6_add/mif6_delete * ip6mr_mfc_add/ip6mr_mfc_delete * ip6mr_reg_vif All the IPv6 multicast forwarding variables moved to struct netns_ipv6 by the previous patches are now referenced in the correct namespace. Changelog: ========== * Take into account the net associated to mfc6_cache when matching entries in mfc_unres_queue list. * Call mroute_clean_tables() in ip6mr_net_exit() to free memory allocated per-namespace. * Call dev_net_set() in ip6mr_reg_vif() to initialize dev->nd_net correctly.

Preliminary work to make IPv6 multicast forwarding netns-aware. Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: moves it into struct netns_ipv6. This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine ip6mr_cache_unresolved). Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in struct mfc6_cache. Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration. In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch.
