Convert AF_PACKET to use RCU, eliminating one more reader/writer lock. There is no need for a real sk_del_node_init_rcu(), because sk_del_node_init is doing the equivalent thing to hlst_del_init_rcu already; but added some comments to try and make that obvious.

2010-02-19xfrm: Flushing empty SPD generates false eventsJamal Hadi Salim
To see the effect make sure you have an empty SPD. On window1 "ip xfrm mon" and on window2 issue "ip xfrm policy flush" You get prompt back in window2 and you see the flush event on window1. With this fix, you still get prompt on window1 but no event on window2. Thanks to Alexey Dobriyan for finding a bug in earlier version when using pfkey to do the flushing.

2010-02-19pfkey: fix SA and SP flush sequenceJamal Hadi Salim
RFC 2367 says flushing behavior should be: 1) user space -> kernel: flush 2) kernel: flush 3) kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners This is not realistic today in the presence of selinux policies which may reject the flush etc. So we make the sequence become: 1) user space -> kernel: flush 2) kernel: flush 3) kernel -> user space: flush response to originater from #1 4) if there were no errors then: kernel -> user space: flush event to ALL listeners Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@cyberus.ca> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-02-19netfilter: ctnetlink: fix creation of conntrack with helpersPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch fixes a bug that triggers an assertion if you create a conntrack entry with a helper and netfilter debugging is enabled. Basically, we hit the assertion because the confirmation flag is set before the conntrack extensions are added. To fix this, we move the extension addition before the aforementioned flag is set. This patch also removes the possibility of setting a helper for existing conntracks. This operation would also trigger the assertion since we are not allowed to add new extensions for existing conntracks. We know noone that could benefit from this operation sanely. Thanks to Eric Dumazet for initial posting a preliminary patch to address this issue.

2010-02-18net: TCP thin dupackAndreas Petlund
This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol and the stream is identified as thin. Signed-off-by: Andreas Petlund <apetlund@simula.no> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-02-18net: TCP thin linear timeoutsAndreas Petlund
This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies that thin stream suffer because of exponential backoff. This mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol and the stream is identified as thin. A maximum of 6 linear timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.

2010-02-17net: bug fix for vlan + gro issueAjit Khaparde
Traffic (tcp) doesnot start on a vlan interface when gro is enabled. Even the tcp handshake was not taking place. This is because, the eth_type_trans call before the netif_receive_skb in napi_gro_finish() resets the skb->dev to napi->dev from the previously set vlan netdev interface. This causes the ip_route_input to drop the incoming packet considering it as a packet coming from a martian source. I could repro this on 2.6.32.7 (stable) and 2.6.33-rc7. With this fix, the traffic starts and the test runs fine on both vlan and non-vlan interfaces.

Add __percpu sparse annotations to net. These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be in a different address space and warn if accessed without going through percpu accessors.

DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly.

2010-02-16net neigh: Decouple per interface neighbour table controls from binary sysctlsEric W. Biederman
Stop computing the number of neighbour table settings we have by counting the number of binary sysctls. This behaviour was silly and meant that we could not add another neighbour table setting without also adding another binary sysctl. Don't pass the binary sysctl path for neighour table entries into neigh_sysctl_register. These parameters are no longer used and so are just dead code. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2010-02-16netfilter: ebtables: try native set/getsockopt handlers, tooFlorian Westphal
ebtables can be compiled to perform userspace-side padding of structures. In that case, all the structures are already in the 'native' format expected by the kernel. This tries to determine what format the userspace program is using. For most set/getsockopts, this can be done by checking the len argument for sizeof(compat_ebt_replace) and re-trying the native handler on error. In case of EBT_SO_GET_ENTRIES, the native handler is tried first, it will error out early when checking the *len argument (the compat version has to defer this check until after iterating over the kernel data set once, to adjust for all the structure size differences). As this would cause error printks, remove those as well, as recommended by Bart de Schuymer. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
