ipv6: Merge ip6_local_out and ip6_local_out_sk

2015-10-08T11:26:58+00:00

Stop hidding the sk parameter with an inline helper function and make all of the callers pass it, so that it is clear what the function is doing. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Merge __ip6_local_out and __ip6_local_out_sk

2015-10-08T11:26:58+00:00

Only __ip6_local_out_sk has callers so rename __ip6_local_out_sk __ip6_local_out and remove the previous __ip6_local_out. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

dst: Pass a sk into .local_out

2015-10-08T11:26:55+00:00

For consistency with the other similar methods in the kernel pass a struct sock into the dst_ops .local_out method. Simplifying the socket passing case is needed a prequel to passing a struct net reference into .local_out. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Pass net into dst_output and remove dst_output_okfn

Replace dst_output_okfn with dst_output Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netfilter: Pass net into okfn

2015-09-18T00:18:37+00:00

This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that call into netfilter. Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process packets in. As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in many cases a code simplification. To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn just silently drops the struct net. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

netfilter: Pass struct net into the netfilter hooks

2015-09-18T00:18:37+00:00

Pass a network namespace parameter into the netfilter hooks. At the call site of the netfilter hooks the path a packet is taking through the network stack is well known which allows the network namespace to be easily and reliabily. This allows the replacement of magic code like "dev_net(state->in?:state->out)" that appears at the start of most netfilter hooks with "state->net". In almost all cases the network namespace passed in is derived from the first network device passed in, guaranteeing those paths will not see any changes in practice. The exceptions are: xfrm/xfrm_output.c:xfrm_output_resume() xs_net(skb_dst(skb)->xfrm) ipvs/ip_vs_xmit.c:ip_vs_nat_send_or_cont() ip_vs_conn_net(cp) ipvs/ip_vs_xmit.c:ip_vs_send_or_cont() ip_vs_conn_net(cp) ipv4/raw.c:raw_send_hdrinc() sock_net(sk) ipv6/ip6_output.c:ip6_xmit() sock_net(sk) ipv6/ndisc.c:ndisc_send_skb() dev_net(skb->dev) not dev_net(dst->dev) ipv6/raw.c:raw6_send_hdrinc() sock_net(sk) br_netfilter_hooks.c:br_nf_pre_routing_finish() dev_net(skb->dev) before skb->dev is set to nf_bridge->physindev In all cases these exceptions seem to be a better expression for the network namespace the packet is being processed in then the historic "dev_net(in?in:out)". I am documenting them in case something odd pops up and someone starts trying to track down what happened. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Merge dst_output and dst_output_sk

2015-09-18T00:18:32+00:00

Add a sock paramter to dst_output making dst_output_sk superfluous. Add a skb->sk parameter to all of the callers of dst_output Have the callers of dst_output_sk call dst_output. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netfilter: don't pull include/linux/netfilter.h from netns headers

2015-06-18T19:14:31+00:00

This pulls the full hook netfilter definitions from all those that include net_namespace.h. Instead let's just include the bare minimum required in the new linux/netfilter_defs.h file, and use it from the netfilter netns header files. I also needed to include in.h and in6.h from linux/netfilter.h otherwise we hit this compilation error: In file included from include/linux/netfilter_defs.h:4:0, from include/net/netns/netfilter.h:4, from include/net/net_namespace.h:22, from include/linux/netdevice.h:43, from net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue_core.c:23: include/uapi/linux/netfilter.h:76:17: error: field ‘in’ has incomplete type struct in_addr in; And also explicit include linux/netfilter.h in several spots.
