Add functions and basic definitions for processing standard flags, private flags, and control messages. This includes definitions to compute length of optional fields corresponding to a set of flags.

2014-11-05net: Move fou_build_header into fou.c and refactorTom Herbert
Move fou_build_header out of ip_tunnel.c and into fou.c splitting it up into fou_build_header, gue_build_header, and fou_build_udp. This allows for other users for TX of FOU or GUE. Change ip_tunnel_encap to call fou_build_header or gue_build_header based on the tunnel encapsulation type. Similarly, added fou_encap_hlen and gue_encap_hlen functions which are called by ip_encap_hlen. New net/fou.h has prototypes and defines for this. Added NET_FOU_IP_TUNNELS configuration. When this is set, IP tunnels can use FOU/GUE and fou module is also selected. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2014-11-04net: allow setting ecn via routing tableFlorian Westphal
This patch allows to set ECN on a per-route basis in case the sysctl tcp_ecn is not set to 1. In other words, when ECN is set for specific routes, it provides a tcp_ecn=1 behaviour for that route while the rest of the stack acts according to the global settings. One can use 'ip route change dev $dev $net features ecn' to toggle this. Having a more fine-grained per-route setting can be beneficial for various reasons, for example, 1) within data centers, or 2) local ISPs may deploy ECN support for their own video/streaming services [1], etc. There was a recent measurement study/paper [2] which scanned the Alexa's publicly available top million websites list from a vantage point in US, Europe and Asia: Half of the Alexa list will now happily use ECN (tcp_ecn=2, most likely blamed to commit 255cac91c3 ("tcp: extend ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN") ;)); the break in connectivity on-path was found is about 1 in 10,000 cases. Timeouts rather than receiving back RSTs were much more common in the negotiation phase (and mostly seen in the Alexa middle band, ranks around 50k-150k): from 12-thousand hosts on which there _may_ be ECN-linked connection failures, only 79 failed with RST when _not_ failing with RST when ECN is not requested. It's unclear though, how much equipment in the wild actually marks CE when buffers start to fill up. We thought about a fallback to non-ECN for retransmitted SYNs as another global option (which could perhaps one day be made default), but as Eric points out, there's much more work needed to detect broken middleboxes. Two examples Eric mentioned are buggy firewalls that accept only a single SYN per flow, and middleboxes that successfully let an ECN flow establish, but later mark CE for all packets (so cwnd converges to 1).

2014-11-04syncookies: split cookie_check_timestamp() into two functionsFlorian Westphal
The function cookie_check_timestamp(), both called from IPv4/6 context, is being used to decode the echoed timestamp from the SYN/ACK into TCP options used for follow-up communication with the peer. We can remove ECN handling from that function, split it into a separate one, and simply rename the original function into cookie_decode_options(). cookie_decode_options() just fills in tcp_option struct based on the echoed timestamp received from the peer. Anything that fails in this function will actually discard the request socket. While this is the natural place for decoding options such as ECN which commit 172d69e63c7f ("syncookies: add support for ECN") added, we argue that in particular for ECN handling, it can be checked at a later point in time as the request sock would actually not need to be dropped from this, but just ECN support turned off. Therefore, we split this functionality into cookie_ecn_ok(), which tells us if the timestamp indicates ECN support AND the tcp_ecn sysctl is enabled. This prepares for per-route ECN support: just looking at the tcp_ecn sysctl won't be enough anymore at that point; if the timestamp indicates ECN and sysctl tcp_ecn == 0, we will also need to check the ECN dst metric. This would mean adding a route lookup to cookie_check_timestamp(), which we definitely want to avoid. As we already do a route lookup at a later point in cookie_{v4,v6}_check(), we can simply make use of that as well for the new cookie_ecn_ok() function w/o any additional cost.

2014-11-04mac80211: 802.11p OCB mode supportRostislav Lisovy
This patch adds 802.11p OCB (Outside the Context of a BSS) mode support. When communicating in OCB mode a mandatory wildcard BSSID (48 '1' bits) is used. The EDCA parameters handling function was changed to support 802.11p specific values. The insertion of a newly discovered STAs is done in the similar way as in the IBSS mode -- through the deferred insertion. The OCB mode uses a periodic 'housekeeping task' for expiration of disconnected STAs (in the similar manner as in the MESH mode). New Kconfig option for verbose OCB debugging outputs is added.

A mandatory parameters during the ocb_join operation are 'center frequency' and 'channel width (5/10 MHz)'.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== netfilter/ipvs fixes for net The following patchset contains fixes for netfilter/ipvs. This round of fixes is larger than usual at this stage, specifically because of the nf_tables bridge reject fixes that I would like to see in 3.18. The patches are: 1) Fix a null-pointer dereference that may occur when logging errors. This problem was introduced by 4a4739d56b0 ("ipvs: Pull out crosses_local_route_boundary logic") in v3.17-rc5. 2) Update hook mask in nft_reject_bridge so we can also filter out packets from there. This fixes 36d2af5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow to filter from prerouting and postrouting"), which needs this chunk to work. 3) Two patches to refactor common code to forge the IPv4 and IPv6 reject packets from the bridge. These are required by the nf_tables reject bridge fix. 4) Fix nft_reject_bridge by avoiding the use of the IP stack to reject packets from the bridge. The idea is to forge the reject packets and inject them to the original port via br_deliver() which is now exported for that purpose. 5) Restrict nft_reject_bridge to bridge prerouting and input hooks. the original skbuff may cloned after prerouting when the bridge stack needs to flood it to several bridge ports, it is too late to reject the traffic. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
