2006-12-02[NET]: Accept wildcard delimiters in in[46]_ptonPatrick McHardy
Accept -1 as delimiter to abort parsing without an error at the first unknown character.

2006-12-02netpoll queue cleanupStephen Hemminger
The beast had a long and not very happy history. At one point, a friend (netdump) had asked that he open up a little. Well, the friend was long gone now, and the beast had this dangling piece hanging (netpoll_queue). It wasn't hard to stitch the netpoll_queue back in where it belonged and make everything tidy. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-12-02netpoll retry cleanupStephen Hemminger
The netpoll beast was still not happy. If the beast got clogged pipes, it tended to stare blankly off in space for a long time. The problem couldn't be completely fixed because the beast talked with irq's disabled. But it could be made less painful and shorter. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-12-02netpoll deferred transmit pathStephen Hemminger
When the netpoll beast got busy, he tended to babble. Instead of talking out of his large mouth as normal, he tended to try to snort out other orifices. This lead to words (skbs) ending up in odd places (like NIT) that he did not intend. The normal way of talking wouldn't work, but he could at least change to using the same tone all the time. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-12-02netpoll setup error handlingStephen Hemminger
The beast was not always healthy. When it was sick, it tended to be laconic and not tell anyone the real problem. A few small changes had it telling the world about its problems, if they really wanted to hear. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-12-02netpoll per device txqStephen Hemminger
When the netpoll beast got really busy, it tended to clog things, so it stored them for later. But the beast was putting all it's skb's in one basket. This was bad because maybe some pipes were clogged and others were not. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-12-02netpoll info leakStephen Hemminger
After looking harder, Steve noticed that the netpoll beast leaked a little every time it shutdown for a nap. Not a big leak, but a nuisance kind of thing. He took out his refcount duct tape and patched the leak. It was overkill since there was already other locking in that area, but it looked clean and wouldn't attract fleas. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>
2006-12-02netpoll: private skb pool (rev3)Stephen Hemminger
It was a dark and stormy night when Steve first saw the netpoll beast. The beast was odd, and misshapen but not extremely ugly. "Let me take off one of your warts" he said. This wart is where you tried to make an skb list yourself. If the beast had ever run out of memory, he would have stupefied himself unnecessarily. The first try was painful, so he tried again till the bleeding stopped. And again, and again... Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org>

2006-12-02[NET]: Size listen hash tables using backlog hintEric Dumazet
We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for example) On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small' sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit. This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter, depending of : - net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128) - net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128) - backlog value given by user application (2nd parameter of listen()) For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of kmalloc(). We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn & tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM usage.

2006-10-30[NET]: Fix segmentation of linear packetsHerbert Xu
skb_segment fails to segment linear packets correctly because it tries to write all linear parts of the original skb into each segment. This will always panic as each segment only contains enough space for one MSS. This was not detected earlier because linear packets should be rare for GSO. In fact it still remains to be seen what exactly created the linear packets that triggered this bug. Basically the only time this should happen is if someone enables GSO emulation on an interface that does not support SG.

2006-10-11[NET]: File descriptor loss while receiving SCM_RIGHTSMiklos Szeredi
If more than one file descriptor was sent with an SCM_RIGHTS message, and on the receiving end, after installing a nonzero (but not all) file descritpors the process runs out of fds, then the already installed fds will be lost (userspace will have no way of knowing about them). The following patch makes sure, that at least the already installed fds are sent to userspace. It doesn't solve the issue of losing file descriptors in case of an EFAULT on the userspace buffer.

2006-10-11IPsec: propagate security module errors up from flow_cache_lookupJames Morris
When a security module is loaded (in this case, SELinux), the security_xfrm_policy_lookup() hook can return an access denied permission (or other error). We were not handling that correctly, and in fact inverting the return logic and propagating a false "ok" back up to xfrm_lookup(), which then allowed packets to pass as if they were not associated with an xfrm policy. The way I was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec. The first SYNACK would be blocked, because of an uncached lookup via flow_cache_lookup(), which would fail to resolve an xfrm policy because the SELinux policy is checked at that point via the resolver. However, retransmitted SYNACKs would then find a cached flow entry when calling into flow_cache_lookup() with a null xfrm policy, which is interpreted by xfrm_lookup() as the packet not having any associated policy and similarly to the first case, allowing it to pass without transformation. The solution presented here is to first ensure that errno values are correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly. Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver fails (typically a permission denied via the security module), the flow cache entry is killed rather than having a null policy assigned (which indicates that the packet can pass freely). This also forces any future lookups for the same flow to consult the security module (e.g. SELinux) for current security policy (rather than, say, caching the error on the flow cache entry).

2006-10-11Lockdep: add lockdep_set_class_and_subclass() and lockdep_set_subclass()Peter Zijlstra
This annotation makes it possible to assign a subclass on lock init. This annotation is meant to reduce the _nested() annotations by assigning a default subclass. One could do without this annotation and rely on lockdep_set_class() exclusively, but that would require a manual stack of struct lock_class_key objects.
