2014-10-03netfilter: nft_masq: register/unregister notifiers on module init/exitArturo Borrero
We have to register the notifiers in the masquerade expression from the the module _init and _exit path. This fixes crashes when removing the masquerade rule with no ipt_MASQUERADE support in place (which was masking the problem).

* Consistently use the multi-line comment style for networking code: /* This * That * The other thing */ * Use single-line comment style for comments with only one line of text. * In general follow the leading '*' of each line of a comment with a single space and then text. * Add missing line break between functions, remove double line break, align comments to previous lines whenever possible.

2014-10-02netfilter: explicit module dependency between br_netfilter and physdevPablo Neira Ayuso
You can use physdev to match the physical interface enslaved to the bridge device. This information is stored in skb->nf_bridge and it is set up by br_netfilter. So, this is only available when iptables is used from the bridge netfilter path. Since 34666d4 ("netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core"), the br_netfilter code is modular. To reduce the impact of this change, we can autoload the br_netfilter if the physdev match is used since we assume that the users need br_netfilter in place.

2014-10-02netfilter: nf_tables: allow to filter from prerouting and postroutingPablo Neira Ayuso

2014-10-02netfilter: nft_compat: remove incomplete 32/64 bits arch compat codePablo Neira Ayuso
This code was based on the wrong asumption that you can probe based on the match/target private size that we get from userspace. This doesn't work at all when you have to dump the info back to userspace since you don't know what word size the userspace utility is using. Currently, the extensions that require arch compat are limit match and the ebt_mark match/target. The standard targets are not used by the nft-xt compat layer, so they are not affected. We can work around this limitation with a new revision that uses arch agnostic types. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2014-10-02netfilter: nft_reject: introduce icmp code abstraction for inet and bridgePablo Neira Ayuso
This patch introduces the NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_UNREACH type which provides an abstraction to the ICMP and ICMPv6 codes that you can use from the inet and bridge tables, they are: * NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_NO_ROUTE: no route to host - network unreachable * NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_PORT_UNREACH: port unreachable * NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_HOST_UNREACH: host unreachable * NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_ADMIN_PROHIBITED: administratevely prohibited You can still use the specific codes when restricting the rule to match the corresponding layer 3 protocol. I decided to not overload the existing NFT_REJECT_ICMP_UNREACH to have different semantics depending on the table family and to allow the user to specify ICMP family specific codes if they restrict it to the corresponding family.

2014-09-30sunvnet: generate ICMP PTMUD messages for smaller port MTUsDavid L Stevens
This patch sends ICMP and ICMPv6 messages for Path MTU Discovery when a remote port MTU is smaller than the device MTU. This allows mixing newer VIO protocol devices that support MTU negotiation with older devices that do not on the same vswitch.

2014-09-30net/mlx4_core: Deprecate error message at ConnectX-2 cards startup to debugJack Morgenstein
ConnectX2 HCAs have max_mtu=4k and max_vl=8 vls. However, if you specify a 4K mtu, the max_vl supported for 4K is 4 vls. The driver at startup attempts to set a 4K mtu using the max_vl value obtained from QUERY_PORT. Since the max_vl value is 8 vls (which is supported up to 2K mtu size), the first attempt to set the mtl/vl port value will fail, generating the following error message in the log: mlx4_core 0000:06:00.0: command 0xc failed: fw status = 0x40 The driver then tries again, using mtu=4k, vls=4, and this succeeds. Since we do not want to have this error message always displayed at driver start when there are ConnectX2 HCAs on the host, we deprecate the error message for this specific command/input_modifier/opcode_modifier/fw-status to be debug.

2014-09-30net/mlx4_core: New init and exit flow for mlx4_coreMajd Dibbiny
In the new flow, we separate the pci initialization and teardown from the initialization and teardown of the other resources. __mlx4_init_one handles the pci resources initialization. It then calls mlx4_load_one to initialize the remainder of the resources. When removing a device, mlx4_remove_one is invoked. However, now mlx4_remove_one calls mlx4_unload_one to free all the resources except the pci resources. When mlx4_unload_one returns, mlx4_remove_one then frees the pci resources. The above separation will allow us to implement 'reset flow' in the future. It will also enable more EQs for VFs and is a pre-step to the modern API to enable/disable SRIOV. Also added nvfs; an integer array of size MLX4_MAX_PORTS + 1; to the mlx4_dev struct. This new field is used to avoid parsing the num_vfs module parameter each time the mlx4_restart_one is called.

2014-09-30bonding: make global bonding stats more reliableAndy Gospodarek
As the code stands today, bonding stats are based simply on the stats from the member interfaces. If a member was to be removed from a bond, the stats would instantly drop. This would be confusing to an admin would would suddonly see interface stats drop while traffic is still flowing. In addition to preventing the stats drops mentioned above, new members will now be added to the bond and only traffic received after the member was added to the bond will be counted as part of bonding stats. Bonding counters will also be updated when any slaves are dropped to make sure the reported stats are reliable. v2: Changes suggested by Nik to properly allocate/free stats memory. v3: Properly destroy workqueue and fix netlink configuration path. v4: Moved cached stats into bonding and slave structs as there does not seem to be a complexity/performance benefit to using alloc'd memory vs in-struct memory.

2014-09-30net: sched: restrict use of qstats qlenJohn Fastabend
This removes the use of qstats->qlen variable from the classifiers and makes it an explicit argument to gnet_stats_copy_queue(). The qlen represents the qdisc queue length and is packed into the qstats at the last moment before passnig to user space. By handling it explicitely we avoid, in the percpu stats case, having to figure out which per_cpu variable to put it in. It would probably be best to remove it from qstats completely but qstats is a user space ABI and can't be broken. A future patch could make an internal only qstats structure that would avoid having to allocate an additional u32 variable on the Qdisc struct. This would make the qstats struct 128bits instead of 128+32. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
