2013-01-28net: fix possible wrong checksum generationEric Dumazet
Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten by the user between the checksum computation and transmit. He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg(). This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be modified by the user. Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(), sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers. Tested: $ netperf -H 7.7.8.84 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.8.84 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 10.00 3959.52 $ netperf -H 7.7.8.84 -t TCP_SENDFILE TCP SENDFILE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.8.84 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 10.00 3216.80 Performance of the SENDFILE is impacted by the extra allocation and copy, and because we use order-0 pages, while the TCP_STREAM uses bigger pages.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== This batch contains netfilter updates for you net-next tree, they are: * The new connlabel extension for x_tables, that allows us to attach labels to each conntrack flow. The kernel implementation uses a bitmask and there's a file in user-space that maps the bits with the corresponding string for each existing label. By now, you can attach up to 128 overlapping labels. From Florian Westphal. * A new round of improvements for the netns support for conntrack. Gao feng has moved many of the initialization code of each module of the netns init path. He also made several code refactoring, that code looks cleaner to me now. * Added documentation for all possible tweaks for nf_conntrack via sysctl, from Jiri Pirko. * Cisco 7941/7945 IP phone support for our SIP conntrack helper, from Kevin Cernekee. * Missing header file in the snmp helper, from Stephen Hemminger. * Finally, a couple of fixes to resolve minor issues with these changes, from myself. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-23soreuseport: UDP/IPv6 implementationTom Herbert
Motivation for soreuseport would be something like a DNS server.  An alternative would be to recv on the same socket from multiple threads. As in the case of TCP, the load across these threads tends to be disproportionate and we also see a lot of contection on the socket lock. Note that SO_REUSEADDR already allows multiple UDP sockets to bind to the same port, however there is no provision to prevent hijacking and nothing to distribute packets across all the sockets sharing the same bound port.  This patch does not change the semantics of SO_REUSEADDR, but provides usable functionality of it for unicast.

2013-01-23soreuseport: TCP/IPv6 implementationTom Herbert
Motivation for soreuseport would be something like a web server binding to port 80 running with multiple threads, where each thread might have it's own listener socket. This could be done as an alternative to other models: 1) have one listener thread which dispatches completed connections to workers. 2) accept on a single listener socket from multiple threads. In case #1 the listener thread can easily become the bottleneck with high connection turn-over rate. In case #2, the proportion of connections accepted per thread tends to be uneven under high connection load (assuming simple event loop: while (1) { accept(); process() }, wakeup does not promote fairness among the sockets. We have seen the disproportion to be as high as 3:1 ratio between thread accepting most connections and the one accepting the fewest. With so_reusport the distribution is uniform.

2013-01-23netfilter: nf_conntrack: refactor l4proto support for netnsGao feng
Move the code that register/unregister l4proto to the module_init/exit context. Given that we have to modify some interfaces to accomodate these changes, it is a good time to use shorter function names for this using the nf_ct_* prefix instead of nf_conntrack_*, that is: nf_ct_l4proto_register nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_register nf_ct_l4proto_unregister nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_unregister We same many line breaks with it.

2013-01-21mcast: add multicast proxy support (IPv4 and IPv6)Nicolas Dichtel
This patch add the support of proxy multicast, ie being able to build a static multicast tree. It adds the support of (*,*) and (*,G) entries. The user should define an (*,*) entry which is not used for real forwarding. This entry defines the upstream in iif and contains all interfaces from the static tree in its oifs. It will be used to forward packet upstream when they come from an interface belonging to the static tree. Hence, the user should define (*,G) entries to build its static tree. Note that upstream interface must be part of oifs: packets are sent to all oifs interfaces except the input interface. This ensures to always join the whole static tree, even if the packet is not coming from the upstream interface.
