2009-01-26vlan: Export symbols as non GPL symbols.Ben Greear
In previous kernels, any kernel module could get access to the 'real-device' and the VLAN-ID for a particular VLAN. In more recent kernels, the code was restructured such that this is hard to do without accessing private .h files for any module that cannot use GPL-only symbols. Attached is a patch to once again allow non-GPL modules the ability to access the real-device and VLAN id for VLANs.

2009-01-22sctp: Fix another socket race during accept/peeloffVlad Yasevich
There is a race between sctp_rcv() and sctp_accept() where we have moved the association from the listening socket to the accepted socket, but sctp_rcv() processing cached the old socket and continues to use it. The easy solution is to check for the socket mismatch once we've grabed the socket lock. If we hit a mis-match, that means that were are currently holding the lock on the listening socket, but the association is refrencing a newly accepted socket. We need to drop the lock on the old socket and grab the lock on the new one. A more proper solution might be to create accepted sockets when the new association is established, similar to TCP. That would eliminate the race for 1-to-1 style sockets, but it would still existing for 1-to-many sockets where a user wished to peeloff an association. For now, we'll live with this easy solution as it addresses the problem.

2009-01-22sctp: Properly timestamp outgoing data chunks for rtx purposesVlad Yasevich
Recent changes to the retransmit code exposed a long standing bug where it was possible for a chunk to be time stamped after the retransmit timer was reset. This caused a rare situation where the retrnamist timer has expired, but nothing was marked for retrnasmission because all of timesamps on data were less then 1 rto ago. As result, the timer was never restarted since nothing was retransmitted, and this resulted in a hung association that did couldn't complete the data transfer. The solution is to timestamp the chunk when it's added to the packet for transmission purposes. After the packet is trsnmitted the rtx timer is restarted. This guarantees that when the timer expires, there will be data to retransmit. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-01-22netns: ipmr: enable namespace support in ipv4 multicast routing codeBenjamin Thery
This last patch makes the appropriate changes to use and propagate the network namespace where needed in IPv4 multicast routing code. This consists mainly in replacing all the remaining init_net occurences with current netns pointer retrieved from sockets, net devices or mfc_caches depending on the routines' contexts. Some routines receive a new 'struct net' parameter to propagate the current netns: * vif_add/vif_delete * ipmr_new_tunnel * mroute_clean_tables * ipmr_cache_find * ipmr_cache_report * ipmr_cache_unresolved * ipmr_mfc_add/ipmr_mfc_delete * ipmr_get_route * rt_fill_info (in route.c) Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Preliminary work to make IPv4 multicast routing netns-aware. Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: move it into struct netns_ipv4. This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine ipmr_cache_unresolved). Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in struct mfc_cache. Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration. In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch. At the moment, cache_resolve_queue_len is only referenced in init_net. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-01-21inet: Allowing more than 64k connections and heavily optimize bind(0) time.Evgeniy Polyakov
With simple extension to the binding mechanism, which allows to bind more than 64k sockets (or smaller amount, depending on sysctl parameters), we have to traverse the whole bind hash table to find out empty bucket. And while it is not a problem for example for 32k connections, bind() completion time grows exponentially (since after each successful binding we have to traverse one bucket more to find empty one) even if we start each time from random offset inside the hash table. So, when hash table is full, and we want to add another socket, we have to traverse the whole table no matter what, so effectivelly this will be the worst case performance and it will be constant. Attached picture shows bind() time depending on number of already bound sockets. Green area corresponds to the usual binding to zero port process, which turns on kernel port selection as described above. Red area is the bind process, when number of reuse-bound sockets is not limited by 64k (or sysctl parameters). The same exponential growth (hidden by the green area) before number of ports reaches sysctl limit. At this time bind hash table has exactly one reuse-enbaled socket in a bucket, but it is possible that they have different addresses. Actually kernel selects the first port to try randomly, so at the beginning bind will take roughly constant time, but with time number of port to check after random start will increase. And that will have exponential growth, but because of above random selection, not every next port selection will necessary take longer time than previous. So we have to consider the area below in the graph (if you could zoom it, you could find, that there are many different times placed there), so area can hide another. Blue area corresponds to the port selection optimization. This is rather simple design approach: hashtable now maintains (unprecise and racely updated) number of currently bound sockets, and when number of such sockets becomes greater than predefined value (I use maximum port range defined by sysctls), we stop traversing the whole bind hash table and just stop at first matching bucket after random start. Above limit roughly corresponds to the case, when bind hash table is full and we turned on mechanism of allowing to bind more reuse-enabled sockets, so it does not change behaviour of other sockets.

2009-01-21dccp: Initialisation and type-checking of feature sysctlsGerrit Renker
This patch takes care of initialising and type-checking sysctls related to feature negotiation. Type checking is important since some of the sysctls now directly impact the feature-negotiation process. The sysctls are initialised with the known default values for each feature. For the type-checking the value constraints from RFC 4340 are used: * Sequence Window uses the specified Wmin=32, the maximum is ulong (4 bytes), tested and confirmed that it works up to 4294967295 - for Gbps speed; * Ack Ratio is between 0 .. 0xffff (2-byte unsigned integer); * CCIDs are between 0 .. 255; * request_retries, retries1, retries2 also between 0..255 for good measure; * tx_qlen is checked to be non-negative; * sync_ratelimit remains as before. Notes: ------ 1. Die s@sysctl_dccp_feat@sysctl_dccp@g since the sysctls are now in feat.c. 2. As pointed out by Arnaldo, the pattern of type-checking repeats itself in other places, sometimes with exactly the same kind of definitions (e.g. "static int zero;"). It may be a good idea (kernel janitors?) to consolidate type checking. For the sake of keeping the changeset small and in order not to affect other subsystems, I have not strived to generalise here.

2009-01-21dccp: Implement both feature-local and feature-remote Sequence Window featureGerrit Renker
This adds full support for local/remote Sequence Window feature, from which the * sequence-number-validity (W) and * acknowledgment-number-validity (W') windows derive as specified in RFC 4340, 7.5.3. Specifically, the following is contained in this patch: * integrated new socket fields into dccp_sk; * updated the update_gsr/gss routines with regard to these fields; * updated handler code: the Sequence Window feature is located at the TX side, so the local feature is meant if the handler-rx flag is false; * the initialisation of `rcv_wnd' in reqsk is removed, since - rcv_wnd is not used by the code anywhere; - sequence number checks are not done in the LISTEN state (cf. 7.5.3); - dccp_check_req checks the Ack number validity more rigorously; * the `struct dccp_minisock' became empty and is now removed.
