net: Modify sk_alloc to not reference count the netns of kernel sockets.

2015-05-11T14:50:18+00:00

Now that sk_alloc knows when a kernel socket is being allocated modify it to not reference count the network namespace of kernel sockets. Keep track of if a socket needs reference counting by adding a flag to struct sock called sk_net_refcnt. Update all of the callers of sock_create_kern to stop using sk_change_net and sk_release_kernel as those hacks are no longer needed, to avoid reference counting a kernel socket.

net: Add a struct net parameter to sock_create_kern

2015-05-11T14:50:17+00:00

This is long overdue, and is part of cleaning up how we allocate kernel sockets that don't reference count struct net. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

udp_tunnel: Pass UDP socket down through udp_tunnel{, 6}_xmit_skb().

2015-04-07T19:29:08+00:00

That was we can make sure the output path of ipv4/ipv6 operate on the UDP socket rather than whatever random thing happens to be in skb->sk. Based upon a patch by Jiri Pirko. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa

udp: Do not require sock in udp_tunnel_xmit_skb

2015-01-25T07:15:40+00:00

The UDP tunnel transmit functions udp_tunnel_xmit_skb and udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb include a socket argument. The socket being passed to the functions (from VXLAN) is a UDP created for receive side. The only thing that the socket is used for in the transmit functions is to get the setting for checksum (enabled or zero). This patch removes the argument and and adds a nocheck argument for checksum setting. This eliminates the unnecessary dependency on a UDP socket for UDP tunnel transmit.

ip: Move checksum convert defines to inet

2015-01-06T03:44:46+00:00

Move convert_csum from udp_sock to inet_sock. This allows the possibility that we can use convert checksum for different types of sockets and also allows convert checksum to be enabled from inet layer (what we'll want to do when enabling IP_CHECKSUM cmsg).

udp-tunnel: Add a few more UDP tunnel APIs

2014-09-19T19:57:15+00:00

Added a few more UDP tunnel APIs that can be shared by UDP based tunnel protocol implementation. The main ones are highlighted below. setup_udp_tunnel_sock() configures UDP listener socket for receiving UDP encapsulated packets. udp_tunnel_xmit_skb() and upd_tunnel6_xmit_skb() transmit skb using UDP encapsulation. udp_tunnel_sock_release() closes the UDP tunnel listener socket.

udp_tunnel: Seperate ipv6 functions into its own file.

2014-09-19T19:57:15+00:00

Add ip6_udp_tunnel.c for ipv6 UDP tunnel functions to avoid ifdefs in udp_tunnel.c Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

udp: Add udp_sock_create for UDP tunnels to open listener socket

2014-07-14T23:12:15+00:00

Added udp_tunnel.c which can contain some common functions for UDP tunnels. The first function in this is udp_sock_create which is used to open the listener port for a UDP tunnel. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
