2011-10-31net: fix implicit kmod.h usage in bridge/br_stp_if.cPaul Gortmaker
To fix this, once the implicit presence of module.h is removed: net/bridge/br_stp_if.c: In function ‘br_stp_start’: net/bridge/br_stp_if.c:131: error: implicit declaration of function ‘call_usermodehelper’ net/bridge/br_stp_if.c:131: error: ‘UMH_WAIT_PROC’ undeclared (first use in this function) Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-10-31net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modulesPaul Gortmaker
These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence of module.h from everywhere. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-10-31net: add moduleparam.h for users of module_param/MODULE_PARM_DESCPaul Gortmaker

2011-10-25caif: Fix BUG() with network namespacesDavid Woodhouse
The caif code will register its own pernet_operations, and then register a netdevice_notifier. Each time the netdevice_notifier is triggered, it'll do some stuff... including a lookup of its own pernet stuff with net_generic(). If the net_generic() call ever returns NULL, the caif code will BUG(). That doesn't seem *so* unreasonable, I suppose — it does seem like it should never happen. However, it *does* happen. When we clone a network namespace, setup_net() runs through all the pernet_operations one at a time. It gets to loopback before it gets to caif. And loopback_net_init() registers a netdevice... while caif hasn't been initialised. So the caif netdevice notifier triggers, and immediately goes BUG(). We could imagine a complex and overengineered solution to this generic class of problems, but this patch takes the simple approach. It just makes caif_device_notify() *not* go looking for its pernet data structures if the device it's being notified about isn't a caif device in the first place.

2011-10-24ipv6: Do not use routes from locally generated RAsAndreas Hofmeister
When hybrid mode is enabled (accept_ra == 2), the kernel also sees RAs generated locally. This is useful since it allows the kernel to auto-configure its own interface addresses. However, if 'accept_ra_defrtr' and/or 'accept_ra_rtr_pref' are set and the locally generated RAs announce the default route and/or other route information, the kernel happily inserts bogus routes with its own address as gateway. With this patch, adding routes from an RA will be skiped when the RAs source address matches any local address, just as if 'accept_ra_defrtr' and 'accept_ra_rtr_pref' were set to 0.

There is a long standing bug in linux tcp stack, about ACK messages sent on behalf of TIME_WAIT sockets. In the IP header of the ACK message, we choose to reflect TOS field of incoming message, and this might break some setups. Example of things that were broken : - Routing using TOS as a selector - Firewalls - Trafic classification / shaping We now remember in timewait structure the inet tos field and use it in ACK generation, and route lookup. Notes : - We still reflect incoming TOS in RST messages. - We could extend MuraliRaja Muniraju patch to report TOS value in netlink messages for TIME_WAIT sockets. - A patch is needed for IPv6 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Fix this by adding the missing manual notification in dev_change_net_namespaces. Since all network devices that are processed by dev_change_net_namspaces are in the initialized state the complicated tests that guard the manual rtmsg_ifinfo calls in rollback_registered and register_netdevice are unnecessary and we can just perform a plain notification.

2011-10-24net: hold sock reference while processing tx timestampsRichard Cochran
The pair of functions, * skb_clone_tx_timestamp() * skb_complete_tx_timestamp() were designed to allow timestamping in PHY devices. The first function, called during the MAC driver's hard_xmit method, identifies PTP protocol packets, clones them, and gives them to the PHY device driver. The PHY driver may hold onto the packet and deliver it at a later time using the second function, which adds the packet to the socket's error queue. As pointed out by Johannes, nothing prevents the socket from disappearing while the cloned packet is sitting in the PHY driver awaiting a timestamp. This patch fixes the issue by taking a reference on the socket for each such packet. In addition, the comments regarding the usage of these function are expanded to highlight the rule that PHY drivers must use skb_complete_tx_timestamp() to release the packet, in order to release the socket reference, too. These functions first appeared in v2.6.36.

2011-10-21dev: use name hash for dev_seq_opsMihai Maruseac
Instead of using the dev->next chain and trying to resync at each call to dev_seq_start, use the name hash, keeping the bucket and the offset in seq->private field. Tests revealed the following results for ifconfig > /dev/null * 1000 interfaces: * 0.114s without patch * 0.089s with patch * 3000 interfaces: * 0.489s without patch * 0.110s with patch * 5000 interfaces: * 1.363s without patch * 0.250s with patch * 128000 interfaces (other setup): * ~100s without patch * ~30s with patch Signed-off-by: Mihai Maruseac <mmaruseac@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-10-21net: add opaque struct around skb frag pageIan Campbell
I've split this bit out of the skb frag destructor patch since it helps enforce the use of the fragment API. Signed-off-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-10-20net: allow CAP_NET_RAW to set socket options IP{,V6}_TRANSPARENTMaciej Żenczykowski
Up till now the IP{,V6}_TRANSPARENT socket options (which actually set the same bit in the socket struct) have required CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to set or clear the option. - we make clearing the bit not require any privileges. - we allow CAP_NET_ADMIN to set the bit (as before this change) - we allow CAP_NET_RAW to set this bit, because raw sockets already pretty much effectively allow you to emulate socket transparency.

tcp_fin() only needs socket pointer, we can remove skb and th params. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-10-20pktgen: remove ndelay() callEric Dumazet
Daniel Turull reported inaccuracies in pktgen when using low packet rates, because we call ndelay(val) with values bigger than 20000. Instead of calling ndelay() for delays < 100us, we can instead loop calling ktime_now() only.

2011-10-20tcp: use TCP_DEFAULT_INIT_RCVWND in tcp_fixup_rcvbuf()Eric Dumazet
Since commit 356f039822b (TCP: increase default initial receive window.), we allow sender to send 10 (TCP_DEFAULT_INIT_RCVWND) segments. Change tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() to reflect this change, even if no real change is expected, since sysctl_tcp_rmem[1] = 87380 and this value is bigger than tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() computed rcvmem (~23720) Note: Since commit 356f039822b limited default window to maximum of 10*1460 and 2*MSS, we use same heuristic in this patch.

2011-10-20ip_gre: dont increase dev->needed_headroom on a live deviceEric Dumazet
It seems ip_gre is able to change dev->needed_headroom on the fly. Its is not legal unfortunately and triggers a BUG in raw_sendmsg() skb = sock_alloc_send_skb(sk, ... + LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE(rt->dst.dev) < another cpu change dev->needed_headromm (making it bigger) ... skb_reserve(skb, LL_RESERVED_SPACE(rt->dst.dev)); We end with LL_RESERVED_SPACE() being bigger than LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE() -> we crash later because skb head is exhausted. Bug introduced in commit 243aad83 in 2.6.34 (ip_gre: include route header_len in max_headroom calculation) Reported-by: Elmar Vonlanthen <evonlanthen@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Timo Teräs <timo.teras@iki.fi> CC: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
