tcp: populate inet->cork.fl.u.ip6 in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()

2026-02-11T04:57:50+00:00

As explained in commit 85d05e281712 ("ipv6: change inet6_sk_rebuild_header() to use inet->cork.fl.u.ip6"): TCP v6 spends a good amount of time rebuilding a fresh fl6 at each transmit in inet6_csk_xmit()/inet6_csk_route_socket(). TCP v4 caches the information in inet->cork.fl.u.ip4 instead. After this patch, passive TCP ipv6 flows have correctly initialized inet->cork.fl.u.ip6 structure.

tcp/dccp: Remove inet_connection_sock_af_ops.addr2sockaddr().

2025-03-24T19:10:13+00:00

inet_connection_sock_af_ops.addr2sockaddr() hasn't been used at all in the git era. $ git grep addr2sockaddr $(git rev-list HEAD | tail -n 1) Let's remove it. Note that there was a 4 bytes hole after sockaddr_len and now it's 6 bytes, so the binary layout is not changed.

inet: drop ->bind_conflict

2017-01-18T18:04:28+00:00

The only difference between inet6_csk_bind_conflict and inet_csk_bind_conflict is how they check the rcv_saddr, so delete this call back and simply change inet_csk_bind_conflict to call inet_rcv_saddr_equal. Signed-off-by: Josef Bacik Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

inet: Fix get port to handle zero port number with soreuseport set

2016-12-17T16:13:19+00:00

A user may call listen with binding an explicit port with the intent that the kernel will assign an available port to the socket. In this case inet_csk_get_port does a port scan. For such sockets, the user may also set soreuseport with the intent a creating more sockets for the port that is selected. The problem is that the initial socket being opened could inadvertently choose an existing and unreleated port number that was already created with soreuseport. This patch adds a boolean parameter to inet_bind_conflict that indicates rather soreuseport is allowed for the check (in addition to sk->sk_reuseport). In calls to inet_bind_conflict from inet_csk_get_port the argument is set to true if an explicit port is being looked up (snum argument is nonzero), and is false if port scan is done.

dccp: use inet6_csk_route_req() helper

2015-09-29T23:53:08+00:00

Before changing dccp_v6_request_recv_sock() sock argument to const, we need to get rid of security_sk_classify_flow(), and it seems doable by reusing inet6_csk_route_req() helper. We need to add a proto parameter to inet6_csk_route_req(), not assume it is TCP. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
