2006-02-02[IPV6]: Don't hold extra ref count in ipv6_ifa_notifyHerbert Xu
Currently the logic in ipv6_ifa_notify is to hold an extra reference count for addrconf dst's that get added to the routing table. Thus, when addrconf dst entries are taken out of the routing table, we need to drop that dst. However, addrconf dst entries may be removed from the routing table by means other than __ipv6_ifa_notify. So we're faced with the choice of either fixing up all places where addrconf dst entries are removed, or dropping the extra reference count altogether. I chose the latter because the ifp itself always holds a dst reference count of 1 while it's alive. This is dropped just before we kfree the ifp object. Therefore we know that in __ipv6_ifa_notify we will always hold that count. This bug was found by Eric W. Biederman. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

Out of tcp6_timewait_sock, that now is just an aggregation of inet_timewait_sock and inet6_timewait_sock, using tw_ipv6_offset in struct inet_timewait_sock, that is common to the IPv6 transport protocols that use timewait sockets, like DCCP and TCP. tw_ipv6_offset plays the struct inet_sock pinfo6 role, i.e. for the generic code to find the IPv6 area in a timewait sock.

2005-12-21[IPV6]: Fix address deletionKristian Slavov
If you add more than one IPv6 address belonging to the same prefix and delete the address that was last added, routing table entry for that prefix is also deleted. Tested on 2.6.14.4 To reproduce: ip addr add 3ffe::1/64 dev eth0 ip addr add 3ffe::2/64 dev eth0 /* wait DAD */ sleep 1 ip addr del 3ffe::2/64 dev eth0 ip -6 route (route to 3ffe::/64 should be gone) In ipv6_del_addr(), if ifa == ifp, we set ifa->if_next to NULL, and later assign ifap = &ifa->if_next, effectively terminating the for-loop. This prevents us from checking if there are other addresses using the same prefix that are valid, and thus resulting in deletion of the prefix. This applies only if the first entry in idev->addr_list is the address to be deleted.

2005-09-01[CRYPTO]: crypto_free_tfm() callers no longer need to check for NULLJesper Juhl
Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in, there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL. This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the crypto_free_tfm bits. I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch applied boots and runs just fine. When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the following comments : J. Bruce Fields commented "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b." Sridhar Samudrala said "sctp change looks fine." Herbert Xu signed off on the patch. So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.

This paves the way to generalise the rest of the sock ID lookup routines and saves some bytes in TCPv4 TIME_WAIT sockets on distro kernels (where IPv6 is always built as a module): [root@qemu ~]# grep tw_sock /proc/slabinfo tw_sock_TCPv6 0 0 128 31 1 tw_sock_TCP 0 0 96 41 1 [root@qemu ~]# Now if a protocol wants to use the TIME_WAIT generic infrastructure it only has to set the sk_prot->twsk_obj_size field with the size of its inet_timewait_sock derived sock and proto_register will create sk_prot->twsk_slab, for now its only for INET sockets, but we can introduce timewait_sock later if some non INET transport protocolo wants to use this stuff. Next changesets will take advantage of this new infrastructure to generalise even more TCP code.

2005-06-21[IPV6]: V6 route events reported with wrong netlink PID and seq numberJamal Hadi Salim
Essentially netlink at the moment always reports a pid and sequence of 0 always for v6 route activities. To understand the repurcassions of this look at: http://lists.quagga.net/pipermail/quagga-dev/2005-June/003507.html While fixing this, i took the liberty to resolve the outstanding issue of IPV6 routes inserted via ioctls to have the correct pids as well. This patch tries to behave as close as possible to the v4 routes i.e maintains whatever PID the socket issuing the command owns as opposed to the process. That made the patch a little bulky. I have tested against both netlink derived utility to add/del routes as well as ioctl derived one. The Quagga folks have tested against quagga. This fixes the problem and so far hasnt been detected to introduce any new issues.

2005-06-13[IPv6] Don't generate temporary for TUN devicesRémi Denis-Courmont
Userland layer-2 tunneling devices allocated through the TUNTAP driver (drivers/net/tun.c) have a type of ARPHRD_NONE, and have no link-layer address. The kernel complains at regular interval when IPv6 Privacy extension are enabled because it can't find an hardware address : Dec 29 11:02:04 auguste kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=cb3e0c00): cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes. IPv6 Privacy extensions should probably be disabled on that sort of device. They won't work anyway. If userland wants a more usual Ethernet-ish interface with usual IPv6 autoconfiguration, it will use a TAP device with an emulated link-layer and a random hardware address rather than a TUN device. As far as I could fine, TUN virtual device from TUNTAP is the very only sort of device using ARPHRD_NONE as kernel device type.
