2011-02-02ipv4: Remove fib_hash.David S. Miller3-1101/+2
The time has finally come to remove the hash based routing table implementation in ipv4. FIB Trie is mature, well tested, and I've done an audit of it's code to confirm that it implements insert, delete, and lookup with the same identical semantics as fib_hash did. If there are any semantic differences found in fib_trie, we should simply fix them. I've placed the trie statistic config option under advanced router configuration. Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-02-01ipv4: Consolidate all default route selection implementations.David S. Miller5-162/+57
Both fib_trie and fib_hash have a local implementation of fib_table_select_default(). This is completely unnecessary code duplication. Since we now remember the fib_table and the head of the fib alias list of the default route, we can implement one single generic version of this routine. Looking at the fib_hash implementation you may get the impression that it's possible for there to be multiple top-level routes in the table for the default route. The truth is, it isn't, the insert code will only allow one entry to exist in the zero prefix hash table, because all keys evaluate to zero and all keys in a hash table must be unique.

2011-02-01ipv4: Remember FIB alias list head and table in lookup results.David S. Miller4-8/+11
This will be used later to implement fib_select_default() in a completely generic manner, instead of the current situation where the default route is re-looked up in the TRIE/HASH table and then the available aliases are analyzed. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-01-31batman-adv: Calculate correct size for merged packetsSven Eckelmann4-3/+31
The routing algorithm must be able to decide if a fragment can be merged with the missing part and still be passed to a forwarding interface. The fragments can only differ by one byte in case that the original payload had an uneven length. In that situation the sender has to inform all possible receivers that the tail is one byte longer using the flag UNI_FRAG_LARGETAIL. The combination of UNI_FRAG_LARGETAIL and UNI_FRAG_HEAD flag makes it possible to calculate the correct length for even and uneven sized payloads. The original formula missed to add the unicast header at all and forgot to remove the fragment header of the second fragment. This made the results highly unreliable and only useful for machines with large differences between the configured MTUs.

2011-01-31batman-adv: Create roughly equal sized fragmentsSven Eckelmann1-2/+3
The routing algorithm must know how large two fragments are to be able to decide that it is safe to merge them or if it should resubmit without waiting for the second part. When these two fragments have a too different size, it is not possible to guess right in every situation. The user could easily configure the MTU of the attached cards so that one fragment is forwarded and the other one is added to the fragments table to wait for the missing part. For even sized packets, it is possible to split it so that the resulting packages are equal sized by ignoring the old non-fragment header at the beginning of the original packet. This still creates different sized fragments for uneven sized packets.

2011-01-30batman-adv: Make vis info stack traversal threadsafeSven Eckelmann1-3/+4
The batman-adv vis server has to a stack which stores all information about packets which should be send later. This stack is protected with a spinlock that is used to prevent concurrent write access to it. The send_vis_packets function has to take all elements from the stack and send them to other hosts over the primary interface. The send will be initiated without the lock which protects the stack. The implementation using list_for_each_entry_safe has the problem that it stores the next element as "safe ptr" to allow the deletion of the current element in the list. The list may be modified during the unlock/lock pair in the loop body which may make the safe pointer not pointing to correct next element. It is safer to remove and use the first element from the stack until no elements are available. This does not need reduntant information which would have to be validated each time the lock was removed.

2011-01-30net: Add compat ioctl support for the ipv4 multicast ioctl SIOCGETSGCNTEric W. Biederman3-0/+81
SIOCGETSGCNT is not a unique ioctl value as it it maps tio SIOCPROTOPRIVATE +1, which unfortunately means the existing infrastructure for compat networking ioctls is insufficient. A trivial compact ioctl implementation would conflict with: SIOCAX25ADDUID SIOCAIPXPRISLT SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6 SIOCGETSGCNT SIOCRSSCAUSE SIOCX25SSUBSCRIP SIOCX25SDTEFACILITIES To make this work I have updated the compat_ioctl decode path to mirror the the normal ioctl decode path. I have added an ipv4 inet_compat_ioctl function so that I can have ipv4 specific compat ioctls. I have added a compat_ioctl function into struct proto so I can break out ioctls by which kind of ip socket I am using. I have added a compat_raw_ioctl function because SIOCGETSGCNT only works on raw sockets. I have added a ipmr_compat_ioctl that mirrors the normal ipmr_ioctl. This was necessary because unfortunately the struct layout for the SIOCGETSGCNT has unsigned longs in it so changes between 32bit and 64bit kernels. This change was sufficient to run a 32bit ip multicast routing daemon on a 64bit kernel. Reported-by: Bill Fenner <fenner@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Date: Sun Nov 8 00:53:51 2009 -0800 net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation. There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace with a well known name. We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace for the new device exists through the life of the call. To keep that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing logic into rtnl_link_get_net. In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base device source network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2011-01-30gro: Reset dev pointer on reuseHerbert Xu1-0/+1
On older kernels the VLAN code may zero skb->dev before dropping it and causing it to be reused by GRO. Unfortunately we didn't reset skb->dev in that case which causes the next GRO user to get a bogus skb->dev pointer. This particular problem no longer happens with the current upstream kernel due to changes in VLAN processing. However, for correctness we should still reset the skb->dev pointer in the GRO reuse function in case a future user does the same thing.

2011-01-28ipv6: Remove route peer binding assertions.David S. Miller1-4/+0
They are bogus. The basic idea is that I wanted to make sure that prefixed routes never bind to peers. The test I used was whether RTF_CACHE was set. But first of all, the RTF_CACHE flag is set at different spots depending upon which ip6_rt_copy() caller you're talking about. I've validated all of the code paths, and even in the future where we bind peers more aggressively (for route metric COW'ing) we never bind to prefix'd routes, only fully specified ones. This even applies when addrconf or icmp6 routes are allocated. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Routing metrics are now copy-on-write. Initially a route entry points it's metrics at a read-only location. If a routing table entry exists, it will point there. Else it will point at the all zero metric place-holder called 'dst_default_metrics'. The writeability state of the metrics is stored in the low bits of the metrics pointer, we have two bits left to spare if we want to store more states. For the initial implementation, COW is implemented simply via kmalloc. However future enhancements will change this to place the writable metrics somewhere else, in order to increase sharing. Very likely this "somewhere else" will be the inetpeer cache. Note also that this means that metrics updates may transiently fail if we cannot COW the metrics successfully. But even by itself, this patch should decrease memory usage and increase cache locality especially for routing workloads. In those cases the read-only metric copies stay in place and never get written to. TCP workloads where metrics get updated, and those rare cases where PMTU triggers occur, will take a very slight performance hit. But that hit will be alleviated when the long-term writable metrics move to a more sharable location. Since the metrics storage went from a u32 array of RTAX_MAX entries to what is essentially a pointer, some retooling of the dst_entry layout was necessary. Most importantly, we need to preserve the alignment of the reference count so that it doesn't share cache lines with the read-mostly state, as per Eric Dumazet's alignment assertion checks. The only non-trivial bit here is the move of the 'flags' member into the writeable cacheline. This is OK since we are always accessing the flags around the same moment when we made a modification to the reference count. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-01-26netfilter: xt_connlimit: pick right dstaddr in NAT scenarioJan Engelhardt1-4/+8
xt_connlimit normally records the "original" tuples in a hashlist (such as "1.2.3.4 -> 5.6.7.8"), and looks in this list for iph->daddr when counting. When the user however uses DNAT in PREROUTING, looking for iph->daddr -- which is now 192.168.9.10 -- will not match. Thus in daddr mode, we need to record the reverse direction tuple ("192.168.9.10 -> 1.2.3.4") instead. In the reverse tuple, the dst addr is on the src side, which is convenient, as count_them still uses &conn->tuple.src.u3. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>

2011-01-26TCP: fix a bug that triggers large number of TCP RST by mistakeJerry Chu1-1/+1
This patch fixes a bug that causes TCP RST packets to be generated on otherwise correctly behaved applications, e.g., no unread data on close,..., etc. To trigger the bug, at least two conditions must be met: 1. The FIN flag is set on the last data packet, i.e., it's not on a separate, FIN only packet. 2. The size of the last data chunk on the receive side matches exactly with the size of buffer posted by the receiver, and the receiver closes the socket without any further read attempt. This bug was first noticed on our netperf based testbed for our IW10 proposal to IETF where a large number of RST packets were observed. netperf's read side code meets the condition 2 above 100%. Before the fix, tcp_data_queue() will queue the last skb that meets condition 1 to sk_receive_queue even though it has fully copied out (skb_copy_datagram_iovec()) the data. Then if condition 2 is also met, tcp_recvmsg() often returns all the copied out data successfully without actually consuming the skb, due to a check "if ((chunk = len - tp->ucopy.len) != 0) {" and "len -= chunk;" after tcp_prequeue_process() that causes "len" to become 0 and an early exit from the big while loop. I don't see any reason not to free the skb whose data have been fully consumed in tcp_data_queue(), regardless of the FIN flag. We won't get there if MSG_PEEK is on. Am I missing some arcane cases related to urgent data? Signed-off-by: H.K. Jerry Chu <hkchu@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-01-26mac80211: fix a crash in ieee80211_beacon_get_tim on change_interfaceFelix Fietkau1-0/+3
Some drivers (e.g. ath9k) do not always disable beacons when they're supposed to. When an interface is changed using the change_interface op, the mode specific sdata part is in an undefined state and trying to get a beacon at this point can produce weird crashes. To fix this, add a check for ieee80211_sdata_running before using anything from the sdata. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: John W.
