2013-02-18net: proc: change proc_net_remove to remove_proc_entryGao feng
proc_net_remove is only used to remove proc entries that under /proc/net,it's not a general function for removing proc entries of netns. if we want to remove some proc entries which under /proc/net/stat/, we still need to call remove_proc_entry. this patch use remove_proc_entry to replace proc_net_remove. we can remove proc_net_remove after this patch.

2013-02-18net: proc: change proc_net_fops_create to proc_createGao feng
Right now, some modules such as bonding use proc_create to create proc entries under /proc/net/, and other modules such as ipv4 use proc_net_fops_create. It looks a little chaos.this patch changes all of proc_net_fops_create to proc_create. we can remove proc_net_fops_create after this patch.

This reverts commit c074da2810c118b3812f32d6754bd9ead2f169e7. This change has several unwanted side effects: 1) Sockets will cache the DST_NOCACHE route in sk->sk_rx_dst and we'll thus never create a real cached route. 2) All TCP traffic will use DST_NOCACHE and never use the routing cache at all.

2012-06-27ipv4: tcp: dont cache unconfirmed intput dstEric Dumazet
DDOS synflood attacks hit badly IP route cache. On typical machines, this cache is allowed to hold up to 8 Millions dst entries, 256 bytes for each, for a total of 2GB of memory. rt_garbage_collect() triggers and tries to cleanup things. Eventually route cache is disabled but machine is under fire and might OOM and crash. This patch exploits the new TCP early demux, to set a nocache boolean in case incoming TCP frame is for a not yet ESTABLISHED or TIMEWAIT socket. This 'nocache' boolean is then used in case dst entry is not found in route cache, to create an unhashed dst entry (DST_NOCACHE) SYN-cookie-ACK sent use a similar mechanism (ipv4: tcp: dont cache output dst for syncookies), so after this patch, a machine is able to absorb a DDOS synflood attack without polluting its IP route cache.

2012-06-12ipv4: Add interface option to enable routing of 127.0.0.0/8Thomas Graf
Routing of 127/8 is tradtionally forbidden, we consider packets from that address block martian when routing and do not process corresponding ARP requests. This is a sane default but renders a huge address space practically unuseable. The RFC states that no address within the 127/8 block should ever appear on any network anywhere but it does not forbid the use of such addresses outside of the loopback device in particular. For example to address a pool of virtual guests behind a load balancer. This patch adds a new interface option 'route_localnet' enabling routing of the 127/8 address block and processing of ARP requests on a specific interface. Note that for the feature to work, the default local route covering 127/8 dev lo needs to be removed. Example: $ sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.route_localnet=1 $ ip route del 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo table local $ ip addr add 127.1.0.1/16 dev eth0 $ ip route flush cache V2: Fix invalid check to auto flush cache (thanks davem) Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-03-16arp: allow arp processing to honor per interface arp_accept sysctlNeil Horman
I found recently that the arp_process function which handles all of our received arp frames, is using IPV4_DEVCONF_ALL macro to check the state of the arp_process flag. This seems wrong, as it implies that either none or all of the network interfaces accept gratuitous arps. This patch corrects that, allowing per-interface arp_accept configuration to deviate from the all setting. Note this also brings us into line with the way the arp_filter setting is handled during arp_process execution. Tested this myself on my home network, and confirmed it works as expected.

As the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small.

My commit 6d55cb91a0020ac0 (gre: fix hard header destination address checking) broke multicast. The reason is that ip_gre used to get ipgre_header() calls with zero destination if we have NOARP or multicast destination. Instead the actual target was decided at ipgre_tunnel_xmit() time based on per-protocol dissection. Instead of allowing the "abuse" of ->header() calls with invalid destination, this creates multicast mappings for ip_gre. This also fixes "ip neigh show nud noarp" to display the proper multicast mappings used by the gre device.

Only when dont_send is 0, arp_filter() is consulted, so we can simply assign the return value of arp_filter() to dont_send instead. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-10-11neigh: Protect neigh->ha[] with a seqlockEric Dumazet
Add a seqlock in struct neighbour to protect neigh->ha[], and avoid dirtying neighbour in stress situation (many different flows / dsts) Dirtying takes place because of read_lock(&n->lock) and n->used writes. Switching to a seqlock, and writing n->used only on jiffies changes permits less dirtying. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-10-05net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash tableEric Dumazet
David This is the first step for RCU conversion of neigh code. Next patches will convert hash_buckets[] and "struct neighbour" to RCU protected objects. Thanks [PATCH net-next] net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table Instead of storing hash_buckets, hash_mask and hash_rnd in "struct neigh_table", a new structure is defined : struct neigh_hash_table { struct neighbour **hash_buckets; unsigned int hash_mask; __u32 hash_rnd; struct rcu_head rcu; }; And "struct neigh_table" has an RCU protected pointer to such a neigh_hash_table. This means the signature of (*hash)() function changed: We need to add a third parameter with the actual hash_rnd value, since this is not anymore a neigh_table field.
