2005-08-29[NETLINK]: Add properly module refcounting for kernel netlink sockets.Harald Welte
- Remove bogus code for compiling netlink as module - Add module refcounting support for modules implementing a netlink protocol - Add support for autoloading modules that implement a netlink protocol as soon as someone opens a socket for that protocol Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

net/ipv4/netfilter.c Netfilter cleanup - Move ipv4 code from net/core/netfilter.c to net/ipv4/netfilter.c - Move ipv6 netfilter code from net/ipv6/ip6_output.c to net/ipv6/netfilter.c Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: Rename skb_ip_make_writable() to skb_make_writable()Harald Welte
There is nothing IPv4-specific in it. In fact, it was already used by IPv6, too... Upcoming nfnetlink_queue code will use it for any kind of packet. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NET]: Kill skb->real_devDavid S. Miller
Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond() decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original device into packet_type->func() as an argument. It remains to be seen whether we can use this same exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargementHarald Welte
As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff. The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller. I did some basic testing on my notebook and it seems to work. The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a single bit. Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for them. Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space. Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code overloads pkt_type :( The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe to remove it. - remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code - don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field. IPVS maintainers can decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die. - remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes - move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-07-30[NET]: fix oops after tunnel module unloadAlexey Kuznetsov
Tunnel modules used to obtain module refcount each time when some tunnel was created, which meaned that tunnel could be unloaded only after all the tunnels are deleted. Since killing old MOD_*_USE_COUNT macros this protection has gone. It is possible to return it back as module_get/put, but it looks more natural and practically useful to force destruction of all the child tunnels on module unload.

2005-07-11[NET]: move config options out to individual protocolsSam Ravnborg
Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols. With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a good basis for further re-structuring. The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several "depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair. Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed out where they belongs.

2005-07-05[TCP]: Move to new TSO segmenting scheme.David S. Miller
Make TSO segment transmit size decisions at send time not earlier. The basic scheme is that we try to build as large a TSO frame as possible when pulling in the user data, but the size of the TSO frame output to the card is determined at transmit time. This is guided by tp->xmit_size_goal. It is always set to a multiple of MSS and tells sendmsg/sendpage how large an SKB to try and build. Later, tcp_write_xmit() and tcp_push_one() chop up the packet if necessary and conditions warrant. These routines can also decide to "defer" in order to wait for more ACKs to arrive and thus allow larger TSO frames to be emitted. A general observation is that TSO elongates the pipe, thus requiring a larger congestion window and larger buffering especially at the sender side. Therefore, it is important that applications 1) get a large enough socket send buffer (this is accomplished by our dynamic send buffer expansion code) 2) do large enough writes.

2005-06-21[IPV6]: multicast join and miscDavid L Stevens
Here is a simplified version of the patch to fix a bug in IPv6 multicasting. It: 1) adds existence check & EADDRINUSE error for regular joins 2) adds an exception for EADDRINUSE in the source-specific multicast join (where a prior join is ok) 3) adds a missing/needed read_lock on sock_mc_list; would've raced with destroying the socket on interface down without 4) adds a "leave group" in the (INCLUDE, empty) source filter case. This frees unneeded socket buffer memory, but also prevents an inappropriate interaction among the 8 socket options that mess with this. Some would fail as if in the group when you aren't really. Item #4 had a locking bug in the last version of this patch; rather than removing the idev->lock read lock only, I've simplified it to remove all lock state in the path and treat it as a direct "leave group" call for the (INCLUDE,empty) case it covers. Tested on an MP machine. :-) Much thanks to HoerdtMickael <hoerdt@clarinet.u-strasbg.fr> who reported the original bug. Signed-off-by: David L Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-06-21[IPV6]: V6 route events reported with wrong netlink PID and seq numberJamal Hadi Salim
Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0 always for v6 route activities. To understand the repurcassions of this look at: http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well. This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to the process. That made the patch a little bulky. I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga. This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any new issues.

2005-06-20[IPSEC]: Add xfrm_init_stateHerbert Xu
This patch adds xfrm_init_state which is simply a wrapper that calls xfrm_get_type and subsequently x->type->init_state. It also gets rid of the unused args argument. Abstracting it out allows us to add common initialisation code, e.g., to set family-specific flags. The add_time setting in xfrm_user.c was deleted because it's already set by xfrm_state_alloc.

2005-06-18[NET] Generalise TCP's struct open_request minisock infrastructureArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Kept this first changeset minimal, without changing existing names to ease peer review. Basicaly tcp_openreq_alloc now receives the or_calltable, that in turn has two new members: ->slab, that replaces tcp_openreq_cachep ->obj_size, to inform the size of the openreq descendant for a specific protocol The protocol specific fields in struct open_request were moved to a class hierarchy, with the things that are common to all connection oriented PF_INET protocols in struct inet_request_sock, the TCP ones in tcp_request_sock, that is an inet_request_sock, that is an open_request. I.e. this uses the same approach used for the struct sock class hierarchy, with sk_prot indicating if the protocol wants to use the open_request infrastructure by filling in sk_prot->rsk_prot with an or_calltable. Results? Performance is improved and TCP v4 now uses only 64 bytes per open request minisock, down from 96 without this patch :-) Next changeset will rename some of the structs, fields and functions mentioned above, struct or_calltable is way unclear, better name it struct request_sock_ops, s/struct open_request/struct request_sock/g, etc. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-06-13[IPv6] Don't generate temporary for TUN devicesRémi Denis-Courmont
Userland layer-2 tunneling devices allocated through the TUNTAP driver (drivers/net/tun.c) have a type of ARPHRD_NONE, and have no link-layer address. The kernel complains at regular interval when IPv6 Privacy extension are enabled because it can't find an hardware address : Dec 29 11:02:04 auguste kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=cb3e0c00): cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes. IPv6 Privacy extensions should probably be disabled on that sort of device. They won't work anyway. If userland wants a more usual Ethernet-ish interface with usual IPv6 autoconfiguration, it will use a TAP device with an emulated link-layer and a random hardware address rather than a TUN device. As far as I could fine, TUN virtual device from TUNTAP is the very only sort of device using ARPHRD_NONE as kernel device type.
