2017-01-25net/tcp-fastopen: make connect()'s return case more consistent with non-TFOWilly Tarreau
Without TFO, any subsequent connect() call after a successful one returns -1 EISCONN. The last API update ensured that __inet_stream_connect() can return -1 EINPROGRESS in response to sendmsg() when TFO is in use to indicate that the connection is now in progress. Unfortunately since this function is used both for connect() and sendmsg(), it has the undesired side effect of making connect() now return -1 EINPROGRESS as well after a successful call, while at the same time poll() returns POLLOUT. This can confuse some applications which happen to call connect() and to check for -1 EISCONN to ensure the connection is usable, and for which EINPROGRESS indicates a need to poll, causing a loop. This problem was encountered in haproxy where a call to connect() is precisely used in certain cases to confirm a connection's readiness. While arguably haproxy's behaviour should be improved here, it seems important to aim at a more robust behaviour when the goal of the new API is to make it easier to implement TFO in existing applications. This patch simply ensures that we preserve the same semantics as in the non-TFO case on the connect() syscall when using TFO, while still returning -1 EINPROGRESS on sendmsg(). For this we simply tell __inet_stream_connect() whether we're doing a regular connect() or in fact connecting for a sendmsg() call.

2015-05-11net: Modify sk_alloc to not reference count the netns of kernel sockets.Eric W. Biederman
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.

2015-03-02net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsgYing Xue
After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now. Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire networking stack.

2014-11-26net-timestamp: make tcp_recvmsg call ipv6_recv_error for AF_INET6 socksWillem de Bruijn
TCP timestamping introduced MSG_ERRQUEUE handling for TCP sockets. If the socket is of family AF_INET6, call ipv6_recv_error instead of ip_recv_error. This change is more complex than a single branch due to the loadable ipv6 module. It reuses a pre-existing indirect function call from ping. The ping code is safe to call, because it is part of the core ipv6 module and always present when AF_INET6 sockets are active. Fixes: 4ed2d765 (net-timestamp: TCP timestamping) Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> ---- It may also be worthwhile to add WARN_ON_ONCE(sk->family == AF_INET6) to ip_recv_error.

2013-09-21inet*.h: Remove extern from function prototypesJoe Perches
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN)Yuchung Cheng
sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2) and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to send data in the opening SYN packet. For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails. For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect(). Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application should only use this flag on new sockets. The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-01-03[NET]: move struct proto_ops to constEric Dumazet
I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at least) This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const, so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing. This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly) I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make them const. This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and speedup some socket system calls. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
