2007-10-10[INET]: local port range robustnessStephen Hemminger
Expansion of original idea from Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Add robustness and locking to the local_port_range sysctl. 1. Enforce that low < high when setting. 2. Use seqlock to ensure atomic update. The locking might seem like overkill, but there are cases where sysadmin might want to change value in the middle of a DoS attack.

2007-02-12[IPV6] HASHTABLES: Use appropriate seed for caluculating ehash index.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki
Tetsuo Handa <handat@pm.nttdata.co.jp> told me that connect(2) with TCPv6 socket almost always took a few minutes to return when we did not have any ports available in the range of net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range. The reason was that we used incorrect seed for calculating index of hash when we check established sockets in __inet6_check_established().

2007-02-08[NET]: change layout of ehash tableEric Dumazet
ehash table layout is currently this one : First half of this table is used by sockets not in TIME_WAIT state Second half of it is used by sockets in TIME_WAIT state. This is non optimal because of for a given hash or socket, the two chain heads are located in separate cache lines. Moreover the locks of the second half are never used. If instead of this halving, we use two list heads in inet_ehash_bucket instead of only one, we probably can avoid one cache miss, and reduce ram usage, particularly if sizeof(rwlock_t) is big (various CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC settings). So we still halves the table but we keep together related chains to speedup lookups and socket state change. In this patch I did not try to align struct inet_ehash_bucket, but a future patch could try to make this structure have a convenient size (a power of two or a multiple of L1_CACHE_SIZE). I guess rwlock will just vanish as soon as RCU is plugged into ehash :) , so maybe we dont need to scratch our heads to align the bucket... Note : In case struct inet_ehash_bucket is not a power of two, we could probably change alloc_large_system_hash() (in case it use __get_free_pages()) to free the unused space. It currently allocates a big zone, but the last quarter of it could be freed. Again, this should be a temporary 'problem'. Patch tested on ipv4 tcp only, but should be OK for IPV6 and DCCP.

2006-09-28[IPV4]: INET_MATCH() annotationsAl Viro
INET_MATCH() and friends depend on an interesting set of kludges: * there's a pair of adjacent fields in struct inet_sock - __be16 dport followed by __u16 num. We want to search by pair, so we combine the keys into a single 32bit value and compare with 32bit value read from &...->dport. * on 64bit targets we combine comparisons with pair of adjacent __be32 fields in the same way. Make sure that we don't mix those values with anything else and that pairs we form them from have correct types. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-03-13[TCP]: Fix zero port problem in IPv6Herbert Xu
When we link a socket into the hash table, we need to make sure that we set the num/port fields so that it shows us with a non-zero port value in proc/netlink and on the wire. This code and comment is copied over from the IPv4 stack as is. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2006-01-03[INET6]: Generalise tcp_v6_hash_connectArnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2005-08-29[INET6_HASHTABLES]: Move inet6_lookup functions to net/ipv6/inet6_hashtables.cArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Doing this we allow tcp_diag to support IPV6 even if tcp_diag is compiled statically and IPV6 is compiled as a module, removing the previous restriction while not building any IPV6 code if it is not selected. Now to work on the tcpdiag_register infrastructure and then to rename the whole thing to inetdiag, reflecting its by then completely generic nature.
