2005-05-01[PATCH] misc verify_area cleanupsJesper Juhl
There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for access_ok - deprecate those. There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out code, fix those up to use access_ok. After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release or two.

2005-04-25[NET]: kill gratitious includes of major.hAl Viro
A lot of places in there are including major.h for no reason whatsoever. Removed. And yes, it still builds. The history of that stuff is often amusing. E.g. for net/core/sock.c the story looks so, as far as I've been able to reconstruct it: we used to need major.h in net/socket.c circa 1.1.early. In 1.1.13 that need had disappeared, along with register_chrdev(SOCKET_MAJOR, "socket", &net_fops) in sock_init(). Include had not. When 1.2 -> 1.3 reorg of net/* had moved a lot of stuff from net/socket.c to net/core/sock.c, this crap had followed...

2005-04-25[NETFILTER]: Drop conntrack reference when packet leaves IPPatrick McHardy
In the event a raw socket is created for sending purposes only, the creator never bothers to check the socket's receive queue. But we continue to add skbs to its queue until it fills up. Unfortunately, if ip_conntrack is loaded on the box, each skb we add to the queue potentially holds a reference to a conntrack. If the user attempts to unload ip_conntrack, we will spin around forever since the queued skbs are pinned. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-04-24[PKT_SCHED]: improve hashing performance of cls_fwThomas Graf
Calculate hashtable size to fit into a page instead of a hardcoded 256 buckets hash table. Results in a 1024 buckets hashtable on most systems. Replace old naive extract-8-lsb-bits algorithm with a better algorithm xor'ing 3 or 4 bit fields at the size of the hashtable array index in order to improve distribution if the majority of the lower bits are unused while keeping zero collision behaviour for the most common use case. Thanks to Wang Jian <lark@linux.net.cn> for bringing this issue to attention and to Eran Mann <emann@mrv.com> for the initial idea for this new algorithm.

2005-04-24[SELINUX]: Fix ipv6_skip_exthdr() invocation causing OOPS.Herbert Xu
The SELinux hooks invoke ipv6_skip_exthdr() with an incorrect length final argument. However, the length argument turns out to be superfluous. I was just reading ipv6_skip_exthdr and it occured to me that we can get rid of len altogether. The only place where len is used is to check whether the skb has two bytes for ipv6_opt_hdr. This check is done by skb_header_pointer/skb_copy_bits anyway. Now it might appear that we've made the code slower by deferring the check to skb_copy_bits. However, this check should not trigger in the common case so this is OK. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-04-24[TCP]: skb pcount with MTU discoveryDavid S. Miller
The problem is that when doing MTU discovery, the too-large segments in the write queue will be calculated as having a pcount of >1. When tcp_write_xmit() is trying to send, tcp_snd_test() fails the cwnd test when pcount > cwnd. The segments are eventually transmitted one at a time by keepalive, but this can take a long time. This patch checks if TSO is enabled when setting pcount. Signed-off-by: John Heffner <jheffner@psc.edu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-04-24[NETFILTER]: Fix NAT sequence number adjustmentPatrick McHardy
The NAT changes in 2.6.11 changed the position where helpers are called and perform packet mangling. Before 2.6.11, a NAT helper was called before the packet was NATed and had its sequence number adjusted. Since 2.6.11, the helpers get packets with already adjusted sequence numbers. This breaks sequence number adjustment, adjust_tcp_sequence() needs the original sequence number to determine whether a packet was a retransmission and to store it for further corrections. It can't be reconstructed without more information than available, so this patch restores the old order by calling helpers from a new conntrack hook two priorities below ip_conntrack_confirm() and adjusting the sequence number from a new NAT hook one priority below ip_conntrack_confirm().

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
