2009-03-25bridge: bad error handling when adding invalid ether addressStephen Hemminger
This fixes an crash when empty bond device is added to a bridge. If an interface with invalid ethernet address (all zero) is added to a bridge, then bridge code detects it when setting up the forward databas entry. But the error unwind is broken, the bridge port object can get freed twice: once when ref count went to zeo, and once by kfree. Since object is never really accessible, just free it.

2009-03-24ipv6: Allow ipv4 wildcard binds after ipv6 address bindsVlad Yasevich
The IPv4 wildcard (0.0.0.0) address does not intersect in any way with explicit IPv6 addresses. These two should be permitted, but the IPv4 conflict code checks the ipv6only bit as part of the test. Since binding to an explicit IPv6 address restricts the socket to only that IPv6 address, the side-effect is that the socket behaves as v6-only. By explicitely setting ipv6only in this case, allows the 2 binds to succeed. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-03-24dynamic debug: combine dprintk and dynamic printkJason Baron
This patch combines Greg Bank's dprintk() work with the existing dynamic printk patchset, we are now calling it 'dynamic debug'. The new feature of this patchset is a richer /debugfs control file interface, (an example output from my system is at the bottom), which allows fined grained control over the the debug output. The output can be controlled by function, file, module, format string, and line number. for example, enabled all debug messages in module 'nf_conntrack': echo -n 'module nf_conntrack +p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control to disable them: echo -n 'module nf_conntrack -p' > /mnt/debugfs/dynamic_debug/control A further explanation can be found in the documentation patch.

2009-03-24Driver core: Fix device_move() vs. dpm list ordering, v2Cornelia Huck
dpm_list currently relies on the fact that child devices will be registered after their parents to get a correct suspend order. Using device_move() however destroys this assumption, as an already registered device may be moved under a newly registered one. This patch adds a new argument to device_move(), allowing callers to specify how dpm_list should be adapted.

2009-03-24netlink: add NETLINK_NO_ENOBUFS socket flagPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch adds the NETLINK_NO_ENOBUFS socket flag. This flag can be used by unicast and broadcast listeners to avoid receiving ENOBUFS errors. Generally speaking, ENOBUFS errors are useful to notify two things to the listener: a) You may increase the receiver buffer size via setsockopt(). b) You have lost messages, you may be out of sync. In some cases, ignoring ENOBUFS errors can be useful. For example: a) nfnetlink_queue: this subsystem does not have any sort of resync method and you can decide to ignore ENOBUFS once you have set a given buffer size. b) ctnetlink: you can use this together with the socket flag NETLINK_BROADCAST_SEND_ERROR to stop getting ENOBUFS errors as you do not need to resync (packets whose event are not delivered are drop to provide reliable logging and state-synchronization). Moreover, the use of NETLINK_NO_ENOBUFS also reduces a "go up, go down" effect in terms of performance which is due to the netlink congestion control when the listener cannot back off. The effect is the following: 1) throughput rate goes up and netlink messages are inserted in the receiver buffer. 2) Then, netlink buffer fills and overruns (set on nlk->state bit 0). 3) While the listener empties the receiver buffer, netlink keeps dropping messages. Thus, throughput goes dramatically down. 4) Then, once the listener has emptied the buffer (nlk->state bit 0 is set off), goto step 1. This effect is easy to trigger with netlink broadcast under heavy load, and it is more noticeable when using a big receiver buffer. You can find some results in [1] that show this problem. [1] http://1984.lsi.us.es/linux/netlink/ This patch also includes the use of sk_drop to account the number of netlink messages drop due to overrun. This value is shown in /proc/net/netlink.

2009-03-24netfilter: nf_conntrack: Reduce conntrack count in nf_conntrack_free()Eric Dumazet
We use RCU to defer freeing of conntrack structures. In DOS situation, RCU might accumulate about 10.000 elements per CPU in its internal queues. To get accurate conntrack counts (at the expense of slightly more RAM used), we might consider conntrack counter not taking into account "about to be freed elements, waiting in RCU queues". We thus decrement it in nf_conntrack_free(), not in the RCU callback.

This patchs adds support of modification of the used logger via sysctl. It can be used to change the logger to module that can not use the bind operation (ipt_LOG and ipt_ULOG). For this purpose, it creates a directory /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log which contains a file per-protocol. The content of the file is the name current logger (NONE if not set) and a logger can be setup by simply echoing its name to the file. By echoing "NONE" to a /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log/PROTO file, the logger corresponding to this PROTO is set to NULL.

2009-03-21dsa: add switch chip cascading supportLennert Buytenhek
The initial version of the DSA driver only supported a single switch chip per network interface, while DSA-capable switch chips can be interconnected to form a tree of switch chips. This patch adds support for multiple switch chips on a network interface. An example topology for a 16-port device with an embedded CPU is as follows: +-----+ +--------+ +--------+ | |eth0 10| switch |9 10| switch | | CPU +----------+ +-------+ | | | | chip 0 | | chip 1 | +-----+ +---++---+ +---++---+ || || || || ||1000baseT ||1000baseT ||ports 1-8 ||ports 9-16 This requires a couple of interdependent changes in the DSA layer: - The dsa platform driver data needs to be extended: there is still only one netdevice per DSA driver instance (eth0 in the example above), but each of the switch chips in the tree needs its own mii_bus device pointer, MII management bus address, and port name array. (include/net/dsa.h) The existing in-tree dsa users need some small changes to deal with this. (arch/arm) - The DSA and Ethertype DSA tagging modules need to be extended to use the DSA device ID field on receive and demultiplex the packet accordingly, and fill in the DSA device ID field on transmit according to which switch chip the packet is heading to. (net/dsa/tag_{dsa,edsa}.c) - The concept of "CPU port", which is the switch chip port that the CPU is connected to (port 10 on switch chip 0 in the example), needs to be extended with the concept of "upstream port", which is the port on the switch chip that will bring us one hop closer to the CPU (port 10 for both switch chips in the example above). - The dsa platform data needs to specify which ports on which switch chips are links to other switch chips, so that we can enable DSA tagging mode on them. (For inter-switch links, we always use non-EtherType DSA tagging, since it has lower overhead. The CPU link uses dsa or edsa tagging depending on what the 'root' switch chip supports.) This is done by specifying "dsa" for the given port in the port array. - The dsa platform data needs to be extended with information on via which port to reach any given switch chip from any given switch chip. This info is specified via the per-switch chip data struct ->rtable[] array, which gives the nexthop ports for each of the other switches in the tree. For the example topology above, the dsa platform data would look something like this: static struct dsa_chip_data sw[2] = { { .mii_bus = &foo, .sw_addr = 1, .port_names[0] = "p1", .port_names[1] = "p2", .port_names[2] = "p3", .port_names[3] = "p4", .port_names[4] = "p5", .port_names[5] = "p6", .port_names[6] = "p7", .port_names[7] = "p8", .port_names[9] = "dsa", .port_names[10] = "cpu", .rtable = (s8 []){ -1, 9, }, }, { .mii_bus = &foo, .sw_addr = 2, .port_names[0] = "p9", .port_names[1] = "p10", .port_names[2] = "p11", .port_names[3] = "p12", .port_names[4] = "p13", .port_names[5] = "p14", .port_names[6] = "p15", .port_names[7] = "p16", .port_names[10] = "dsa", .rtable = (s8 []){ 10, -1, }, }, }, static struct dsa_platform_data pd = { .netdev = &foo, .nr_switches = 2, .sw = sw, }; Signed-off-by: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@marvell.com> Tested-by: Gary Thomas <gary@mlbassoc.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Protocols should be able to use constant value for the descriptor. Minor whitespace cleanup as well Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Acked-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-21net: remove useless prefetch() callEric Dumazet
There is no gain using prefetch() in dev_hard_start_xmit(), since we already had to read ops->ndo_select_queue pointer in dev_pick_tx(), and both pointers are probably located in the same cache line. This prefetch call slows down fast path because of a stall in address computation. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-21sctp: Clean up TEST_FRAME hacks.Vlad Yasevich
Remove 2 TEST_FRAME hacks that are no longer needed. These allowed sctp regression tests to compile before, but are no longer needed. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-21skb: expose and constify hash primitivesStephen Hemminger
Some minor changes to queue hashing: 1. Use const on accessor functions 2. Export skb_tx_hash for use in drivers (see ixgbe) Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-21atm: lec use dev_change_mtuStephen Hemminger
Rather than calling device pointer directly (which is incorrect with net_device_ops), use the standard dev_change_mtu. Compile tested only. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-21net/*: use linux/kernel.h swap()Ilpo Järvinen
tcp_sack_swap seems unnecessary so I pushed swap to the caller. Also removed comment that seemed then pointless, and added include when not already there. Compile tested. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-03-21netrom: zero length frame filtering in NetRomBernard Pidoux
A zero length frame filter was recently introduced in ROSE protocole. Previous commit makes the same at AX25 protocole level. This patch has the same purpose for NetRom protocole. The reason is that empty frames have no meaning in NetRom protocole. Signed-off-by: Bernard Pidoux <f6bvp@amsat.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-03-20nl80211: Check that function pointer != NULL before using itJouni Malinen
NL80211_CMD_GET_MESH_PARAMS and NL80211_CMD_SET_MESH_PARAMS handlers did not verify whether a function pointer is NULL (not supported by the driver) before trying to call the function. The former nl80211 command is available for unprivileged users, too, so this can potentially allow normal users to kill networking (or worse..) if mac80211 is built without CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH=y.

2009-03-18netns: oops in ip[6]_frag_reasm incrementing statsJorge Boncompte [DTI2]
dev can be NULL in ip[6]_frag_reasm for skb's coming from RAW sockets. Quagga's OSPFD sends fragmented packets on a RAW socket, when netfilter conntrack reassembles them on the OUTPUT path you hit this code path. You can test it with something like "hping2 -0 -d 2000 -f AA.BB.CC.DD" With help from Jarek Poplawski. Signed-off-by: Jorge Boncompte [DTI2] <jorge@dti2.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
