2006-12-02[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: rename struct nf_conntrack_protocolMartin Josefsson
Rename 'struct nf_conntrack_protocol' to 'struct nf_conntrack_l4proto' in order to help distinguish it from 'struct nf_conntrack_l3proto'. It gets rather confusing with 'nf_conntrack_protocol'. Signed-off-by: Martin Josefsson <gandalf@wlug.westbo.se> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2006-12-02[DCCP]: Use `unsigned' for packet lengthsGerrit Renker
This patch implements a suggestion by Ian McDonald and 1) Avoids tests against negative packet lengths by using unsigned int for packet payload lengths in the CCID send_packet()/packet_sent() routines 2) As a consequence, it removes an now unnecessary test with regard to `len > 0' in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent: that condition is always true, since * negative packet lengths are avoided * ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet flags an error whenever the payload length is 0. As a consequence, ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is never called as all errors returned by ccid_hc_tx_send_packet are caught in dccp_write_xmit 3) Removes the third argument of ccid_hc_tx_send_packet (the `len' parameter), since it is currently always set to skb->len. The code is updated with regard to this parameter change.

2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Larger initial windowsGerrit Renker
This implements the larger-initial-windows feature for CCID 3, as described in section 5 of RFC 4342. When the first feedback packet arrives, the sender can send up to 2..4 packets per RTT, instead of just one. The patch further * reduces the number of timestamping calls by passing the timestamp value (which is computed in one of the calling functions anyway) as argument * renames one constant with a very long name into one which is shorter and resembles the one in RFC 3448 (t_mbi) * simplifies some of the min_t/max_t cases where both `x', `y' have the same type Commiter note: renamed TFRC_t_mbi to TFRC_T_MBI, to follow Linux coding style.

2006-12-02[DCCP]: Tidy up unused structuresGerrit Renker
This removes and cleans up unused variables and structures which have become unnecessary following the introduction of the EWMA patch to automatically track the CCID 3 receiver/sender packet sizes `s'. It deprecates the PACKET_SIZE socket option by returning an error code and printing a deprecation warning if an application tries to read or write this socket option.

2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Set NoFeedback Timeout according to RFC 3448Gerrit Renker
This corrects the setting of the nofeedback timer with regard to RFC 3448 - previously it was not set to max(4*R, 2*s/X) as specified. Using the maximum of 1 second as upper bound (as it was done before) can have detrimental effects, especially if R is small.

2006-12-02[DCCP]: Remove allocation of sysctl numbersGerrit Renker
This is in response to a request sent earlier by Eric W. Biederman and replaces all sysctl numbers for net.dccp.default with CTL_UNNUMBERED. It has been tested to compile and to work. Commiter note: I've removed the use of CTL_UNNUMBERED, not setting .ctl_name sets it to 0, that is the what CTL_UNNUMBERED is, reason is to avoid unneeded source code cluttering.

2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Consolidate handling of t_RTOGerrit Renker
This patch * removes setting t_RTO in ccid3_hc_tx_init (per [RFC 3448, 4.2], t_RTO is undefined until feedback has been received); * makes some trivial changes (updates of comments); * performs a small optimisation by exploiting that the feedback timeout uses the value of t_ipi. The way it is done is safe, because the timeouts appear after the changes to t_ipi, ensuring that up-to-date values are used; * in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, moves the t_rto statement closer to the calculation of the next_tmout. This makes the code clearer to read and is also safe, since t_rto is not updated until the next call of ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, and is not read by the functions called via ccid_wait_for_ccid(); * removes a `max' statement in sk_reset_timer, this is not needed since the timeout value is always greater than 1E6 microseconds. * adds `XXX'es to highlight that currently the nofeedback timer is set in a non-standard way Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Acked-by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>
2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Consistently update t_nom, t_ipi, t_deltaGerrit Renker
This patch: * consolidates updating of parameters (t_nom, t_ipi, t_delta) which need to be updated at the same time, since they are inter-dependent * removes two inline functions which are no longer needed as a result of the above consolidation * resolves a FIXME regarding the re-calculation of t_ipi within the nofeedback timer, in the state where no feedback has previously been received * ties updating these parameters to updating the sending rate X, exploiting that all three parameters in turn depend on X; and using a small optimisation which can reduce the number of required instructions: only update the three parameters when X really changes Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Acked-by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>
2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Consolidate timer resetsGerrit Renker
This patch concerns updating the value of the nofeedback timer when no feedback has been received so far. Since in this case the value of R is still undefined according to [RFC 3448, 4.2], we can not perform step (3) of [RFC 3448, 4.3]. A clarification is provided in [RFC 4342, sec. 5], which states that in these cases the nofeedback timer (still) expires "after two seconds". Many thanks to Ian McDonald for pointing this out and providing the clarification. The patch * implements [RFC 4342, sec. 5] with regard to the above case * consolidates handling timer restart by - adding an appropriate jump label and - initialising the timeout value Acked-by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

2006-12-02[UDP(-Lite)]: consolidate v4 and v6 get|setsockopt codeGerrit Renker
This patch consolidates set/getsockopt code between UDP(-Lite) v4 and 6. The justification is that UDP(-Lite) is a transport-layer protocol and therefore the socket option code (at least in theory) should be AF-independent. Furthermore, there is the following code reduplication: * do_udp{,v6}_getsockopt is 100% identical between v4 and v6 * do_udp{,v6}_setsockopt is identical up to the following differerence --v4 in contrast to v4 additionally allows the experimental encapsulation types UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP and UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP_NON_IKE --the remainder is identical between v4 and v6 I believe that this difference is of little relevance. The advantages in not duplicating twice almost completely identical code. The patch further simplifies the interface of udp{,v6}_push_pending_frames, since for the second argument (struct udp_sock *up) it always holds that up = udp_sk(sk); where sk is the first function argument.

2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Remove redundant statements in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sentGerrit Renker
This patch removes a switch statement which is redundant since, * nothing is done in states TFRC_SSTATE_NO_SENT/TFRC_SSTATE_NO_FBACK * it is impossible that the function is called in the state TFRC_SSTATE_TERM, since --the function is called, in dccp_write_xmit, after ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet --if ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet is called in state TFRC_SSTATE_TERM, it returns -EINVAL, which means that ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent will not be called (compare dccp_write_xmit) --> therefore, this case is logically impossible * the remaining state is TFRC_SSTATE_FBACK which conditionally updates t_ipi, t_nom, and t_delta. This is a no-op, since --t_ipi only changes when feedback is received --however, when feedback arrives via ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv, there is an identical code block which performs the same set of operations --performing the same set of operations again in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent therefore does not change anything, since between the time of receiving the last feedback (and therefore update of t_ipi, t_nom, and t_delta), the value of t_ipi has not changed --since t_ipi has not changed, the values of t_delta and t_nom also do not change, they depend fully on t_ipi Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Acked-by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>
2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Avoid congestion control on zero-sized data packetsGerrit Renker
This resolves an `XXX' in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet(). The function is only called on Data and DataAck packets and returns a negative result on zero-sized messages. This is a reasonable policy since CCID 3 is a congestion-control module and congestion control on zero-sized Data(Ack) packets is in a way pathological. The patch uses a more suitable error code for this case, it returns the Posix.1 code `EBADMSG' ("Not a data message") instead of `ENOTCONN'. As a result of ignoring zero-sized packets, a the condition for a warning "First packet is data" in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent is always satisfied; this message has been removed since it will always be printed.

2006-12-02[DCCP] ccid3: Simplify control flow in the calculation of t_ipiGerrit Renker
This patch performs a simplifying (performance) optimisation: In each call of the inline function ccid3_calc_new_t_ipi(), the state is tested against TFRC_SSTATE_NO_FBACK. This is expensive when the function is called very often. A simpler solution, implemented by this patch, is to adapt the control flow. Background:

Commiter note: This was split from Andrea's original patch, in the process I changed the type of the ackvec index fields to u16 instead of to int and haven't folded dccp_ackvec_parse with dccp_ackvec_check_rcv_ackno. Next patch will actually do the insertion of more than one ackvec per packet, using, initially, up to a max of 2 ackvecs as per Andrea's original patch, then I'll work on support for larger ackvecs, be it using a sysctl or using setsockopt.
