2009-06-10netfilter: nf_conntrack: use per-conntrack locks for protocol dataPatrick McHardy
Introduce per-conntrack locks and use them instead of the global protocol locks to avoid contention. Especially tcp_lock shows up very high in profiles on larger machines. This will also allow to simplify the upcoming reliable event delivery patches. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
2009-06-10sunrpc/auth_gss: Call rcu_barrier() on module unload.Jesper Dangaard Brouer

On module unload call rcu_barrier(), this is needed as synchronize_rcu() is not strong enough. The kmem_cache_destroy() does invoke synchronize_rcu() but it does not provide same protection.

syncronize_net() The VLAN 8021q driver needs to call rcu_barrier() when unloading the module, instead of syncronize_net(). This is needed to make sure that outstanding call_rcu() callbacks have completed, before the callback function code is removed on module unload.

2009-06-09net: add IEEE 802.15.4 socket family implementationSergey Lapin
Add support for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks. This implementation is neither certified nor complete, but aims to that goal. This commit contains only the socket interface for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks. One can either send RAW datagrams or use SOCK_DGRAM to encapsulate data inside normal IEEE 802.15.4 packets. Configuration interface, drivers and software MAC 802.15.4 implementation will follow. Initial implementation was done by Maxim Gorbachyov, Maxim Osipov and Pavel Smolensky as a research project at Siemens AG. Later the stack was heavily reworked to better suit the linux networking model, and is now maitained as an open project partially sponsored by Siemens.

2009-06-09cls_cgroup: Fix oops when user send improperly 'tc filter add' requestMinoru Usui
I found a bug in cls_cgroup_change() in cls_cgroup.c. cls_cgroup_change() expected tca[TCA_OPTIONS] was set from user space properly, but tc in iproute2-2.6.29-1 (which I used) didn't set it. In the current source code of tc in git, it set tca[TCA_OPTIONS]. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shemminger/iproute2.git If we always use a newest iproute2 in git when we use cls_cgroup, we don't face this oops probably.

2009-06-08netfilter: passive OS fingerprint xtables matchEvgeniy Polyakov
Passive OS fingerprinting netfilter module allows to passively detect remote OS and perform various netfilter actions based on that knowledge. This module compares some data (WS, MSS, options and it's order, ttl, df and others) from packets with SYN bit set with dynamically loaded OS fingerprints. Fingerprint matching rules can be downloaded from OpenBSD source tree or found in archive and loaded via netfilter netlink subsystem into the kernel via special util found in archive. Archive contains library file (also attached), which was shipped with iptables extensions some time ago (at least when ipt_osf existed in patch-o-matic). Following changes were made in this release: * added NLM_F_CREATE/NLM_F_EXCL checks * dropped _rcu list traversing helpers in the protected add/remove calls * dropped unneded structures, debug prints, obscure comment and check Fingerprints can be downloaded from http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/etc/pf.os or can be found in archive Example usage: -d switch removes fingerprints Please consider for inclusion. Thank you. Passive OS fingerprint homepage (archives, examples): http://www.ioremap.net/projects/osf Signed-off-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <zbr@ioremap.net> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
2009-06-08netfilter: nf_ct_icmp: keep the ICMP ct entries longerJan Kasprzak
Current conntrack code kills the ICMP conntrack entry as soon as the first reply is received. This is incorrect, as we then see only the first ICMP echo reply out of several possible duplicates as ESTABLISHED, while the rest will be INVALID. Also this unnecessarily increases the conntrackd traffic on H-A firewalls. Make all the ICMP conntrack entries (including the replied ones) last for the default of nf_conntrack_icmp{,v6}_timeout seconds.

2009-06-08net: skb_shared_info optimizationEric Dumazet
skb_dma_unmap() is quite expensive for small packets, because we use two different cache lines from skb_shared_info. One to access nr_frags, one to access dma_maps[0] Instead of dma_maps being an array of MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 elements, let dma_head alone in a new dma_head field, close to nr_frags, to reduce cache lines misses.

2009-06-05netfilter: ipt_MASQUERADE: remove redundant rwlockFlorian Westphal
The lock "protects" an assignment and a comparision of an integer. When the caller of device_cmp() evaluates the result, nat->masq_index may already have been changed (regardless if the lock is there or not). So, the lock either has to be held during nf_ct_iterate_cleanup(), or can be removed. This does the latter.

Each instance can process flows independently. Packets for the same connection are put into the same queue.
