2008-11-06net: Don't leak packets when a netns is going downEric W. Biederman
I have been tracking for a while a case where when the network namespace exits the cleanup gets stck in an endless precessess of: unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3 It turns out that if you listen on a multicast address an unsubscribe packet is sent when the network device goes down. If you shutdown the network namespace without carefully cleaning up this can trigger the unsubscribe packet to be sent over the loopback interface while the network namespace is going down. All of which is fine except when we drop the packet and forget to free it leaking the skb and the dst entry attached to. As it turns out the dst entry hold a reference to the idev which holds the dev and keeps everything from being cleaned up. Yuck! By fixing my earlier thinko and add the needed kfree_skb and everything cleans up beautifully. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-06net: Guaranetee the proper ordering of the loopback device.Eric W. Biederman
I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace cleanup. In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the loopback device is present. Things like sending igmp unsubscribe messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present. Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the loopback device directly from net_dev_init(). This guarantes that the loopback device is the first device registered and the last network device to go away. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-05netns: Delete virtual interfaces during namespace cleanupEric W. Biederman
When physical devices are inside of network namespace and that network namespace terminates we can not make them go away. We have to keep them and moving them to the initial network namespace is the best we can do. For virtual devices left in a network namespace that is exiting we have no need to preserve them and we now have the infrastructure that allows us to delete them. So delete virtual devices when we exit a network namespace. Keeping the necessary user space clean up after a network namespace exits much more tractable.

2008-11-05net: sk_free_datagram() should use sk_mem_reclaim_partial()Eric Dumazet
I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications. While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by application. One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page) of memory for each UDP socket. We did something very similar on TCP side in commit 9993e7d313e80bdc005d09c7def91903e0068f07 ([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer()) A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.

2008-11-05dccp: Basic data structure for feature negotiationGerrit Renker
This patch prepares for the new and extended feature-negotiation routines. The following feature-negotiation data structures are provided: * a container for the various (SP or NN) values, * symbolic state names to track feature states, * an entry struct which holds all current information together, * elementary functions to fill in and process these structures. Entry structs are arranged as FIFO for the following reason: RFC 4340 specifies that if multiple options of the same type are present, they are processed in the order of their appearance in the packet; which means that this order needs to be preserved in the local data structure (the later insertion code also respects this order). The struct list_head has been chosen for the following reasons: the most frequent operations are * add new entry at tail (when receiving Change or setting socket options); * delete entry (when Confirm has been received); * deep copy of entire list (cloning from listening socket onto request socket). The NN value has been set to 64 bit, which is a currently sufficient upper limit (Sequence Window feature has 48 bit). Thanks to Arnaldo, who contributed the streamlined layout of the entry struct.

2008-11-02sch_netem: Replace ->requeue() method with open codeJarek Poplawski

2008-11-02sch_netem: Remove classful functionalityJarek Poplawski
Patrick McHardy noticed that: "a lot of the functionality of netem requires the inner tfifo anyways and rate-limiting is usually done on top of netem. So I would suggest so either hard-wire the tfifo qdisc or at least make the assumption that inner qdiscs are work-conserving.", and later: "- a lot of other qdiscs still don't work as inner qdiscs of netem [...]". So, according to his suggestion, this patch removes classful options of netem. The main reason of this change is to remove ops->requeue() method, which is currently used only by netem.

2008-11-02xfrm6: handling fragmentNicolas Dichtel
RFC4301 Section 7.1 says: "7.1. Tunnel Mode SAs that Carry Initial and Non-Initial Fragments All implementations MUST support tunnel mode SAs that are configured to pass traffic without regard to port field (or ICMP type/code or Mobility Header type) values. If the SA will carry traffic for specified protocols, the selector set for the SA MUST specify the port fields (or ICMP type/code or Mobility Header type) as ANY. An SA defined in this fashion will carry all traffic including initial and non-initial fragments for the indicated Local/Remote addresses and specified Next Layer protocol(s)." But for IPv6, fragment is treated as a protocol. This change catches protocol transported in fragmented packet. In IPv4, there is no problem.

2008-10-31wireless: clean up regulatory ignore_request functionJohannes Berg
This function has a few WARNs that may eventually trigger when an AP sends rogue beacons, those must be removed. Some of the comments in the function are also inappropriate as this function is concerned with the global hint, not a per- wiphy thing (which a multidomain flag on a wiphy would imply). I'm convinced that we don't need to do anything to implement multi-domain capability as 802.11-2007 specifies it because it makes only two things mandatory: * starting of BSS/IBSS must have country information (this can easily be done with a mac80211 patch) * a STA must adopt the country information (we already have the framework for this) But we don't have anything implemented anyway for now.
