2009-12-02TCPCT part 1c: sysctl_tcp_cookie_size, socket option TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONSWilliam Allen Simpson
Define sysctl (tcp_cookie_size) to turn on and off the cookie option default globally, instead of a compiled configuration option. Define per socket option (TCP_COOKIE_TRANSACTIONS) for setting constant data values, retrieving variable cookie values, and other facilities. Move inline tcp_clear_options() unchanged from net/tcp.h to linux/tcp.h, near its corresponding struct tcp_options_received (prior to changes). This is a straightforward re-implementation of an earlier (year-old) patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original author (Adam Langley): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586 These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement additional features.

2009-12-02TCPCT part 1b: generate Responder Cookie secretWilliam Allen Simpson
Define (missing) hash message size for SHA1. Define hashing size constants specific to TCP cookies. Add new function: tcp_cookie_generator(). Maintain global secret values for tcp_cookie_generator(). This is a significantly revised implementation of earlier (15-year-old) Photuris [RFC-2522] code for the KA9Q cooperative multitasking platform. Linux RCU technique appears to be well-suited to this application, though neither of the circular queue items are freed. These functions will also be used in subsequent patches that implement additional features.

2009-12-02TCPCT part 1a: add request_values parameter for sending SYNACKWilliam Allen Simpson
Add optional function parameters associated with sending SYNACK. These parameters are not needed after sending SYNACK, and are not used for retransmission. Avoids extending struct tcp_request_sock, and avoids allocating kernel memory. Also affects DCCP as it uses common struct request_sock_ops, but this parameter is currently reserved for future use.

2009-12-02skbuff: remove skb_dma_map/unmapAlexander Duyck
The two functions skb_dma_map/unmap are unsafe to use as they cause problems when packets are cloned and sent to multiple devices while a HW IOMMU is enabled. Due to this it is best to remove the code so it is not used by any other network driver maintainters.

2009-12-01net: Automatically allocate per namespace data.Eric W. Biederman
To get the full benefit of batched network namespace cleanup netowrk device deletion needs to be performed by the generic code. When using register_pernet_gen_device and freeing the data in exit_net it is impossible to delay allocation until after exit_net has called as the device uninit methods are no longer safe. To correct this, and to simplify working with per network namespace data I have moved allocation and deletion of per network namespace data into the network namespace core. The core now frees the data only after all of the network namespace exit routines have run. Now it is only required to set the new fields .id and .size in the pernet_operations structure if you want network namespace data to be managed for you automatically. This makes the current register_pernet_gen_device and register_pernet_gen_subsys routines unnecessary. For the moment I have left them as compatibility wrappers in net_namespace.h They will be removed once all of the users have been updated. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2009-12-01net: Batch network namespace destruction.Eric W. Biederman
It is fairly common to kill several network namespaces at once. Either because they are nested one inside the other or because they are cooperating in multiple machine networking experiments. As the network stack control logic does not parallelize easily batch up multiple network namespaces existing together. To get the full benefit of batching the virtual network devices to be removed must be all removed in one batch. For that purpose I have added a loop after the last network device operations have run that batches up all remaining network devices and deletes them. An extra benefit is that the reorganization slightly shrinks the size of the per network namespace data structures replaceing a work_struct with a list_head. In a trivial test with 4K namespaces this change reduced the cost of a destroying 4K namespaces from 7+ minutes (at 12% cpu) to 44 seconds (at 60% cpu). The bulk of that 44s was spent in inet_twsk_purge. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-12-01net: NETDEV_UNREGISTER_PERNET -> NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCHEric W. Biederman
The motivation for an additional notifier in batched netdevice notification (rt_do_flush) only needs to be called once per batch not once per namespace. For further batching improvements I need a guarantee that the netdevices are unregistered in order allowing me to unregister an all of the network devices in a network namespace at the same time with the guarantee that the loopback device is really and truly unregistered last. Additionally it appears that we moved the route cache flush after the final synchronize_net, which seems wrong and there was no explanation. So I have restored the original location of the final synchronize_net. Cc: Octavian Purdila <opurdila@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-12-01ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socketPatrick McHardy
When a large packet gets reassembled by ip_defrag(), the head skb accounts for all the fragments in skb->truesize. If this packet is refragmented again, skb->truesize is not re-adjusted to reflect only the head size since its not owned by a socket. If the head fragment then gets recycled and reused for another received fragment, it might exceed the defragmentation limits due to its large truesize value. skb_recycle_check() explicitly checks for linear skbs, so any recycled skb should reflect its true size in skb->truesize. Change ip_fragment() to also adjust the truesize value of skbs not owned by a socket.

As the comment indicates, the BUG_ON can be removed since the ampdu_action callback must already exist when the state is != IDLE. The second problem isn't easily exploitable but there's a race condition due to unconditionally setting the state to OPERATIONAL when a delBA frame is received, even when no aggregation session was ever initiated. All the drivers accept stopping the session even then, but that opens a race window where crashes could happen before the driver accepts it. Right now, a WARN_ON may happen with non-HT drivers, while the race opens only for HT drivers. For this case, there are two things necessary to fix it: 1) don't process spurious delBA frames, and be more careful about the session state; don't drop the lock 2) HT drivers need to be prepared to handle a session stop even before the session was really started -- this is true for all drivers (that support aggregation) but iwlwifi which can be fixed easily. The other HT drivers (ath9k and ar9170) are behaving properly already.

2009-11-29sctp: on T3_RTX retransmit all the in-flight chunksAndrei Pelinescu-Onciul
When retransmitting due to T3 timeout, retransmit all the in-flight chunks for the corresponding transport/path, including chunks sent less then 1 rto ago. This is the correct behaviour according to rfc4960 section 6.3.3 E3 and "Note: Any DATA chunks that were sent to the address for which the T3-rtx timer expired but did not fit in one MTU (rule E3 above) should be marked for retransmission and sent as soon as cwnd allows (normally, when a SACK arrives). ". This fixes problems when more then one path is present and the T3 retransmission of the first chunk that timeouts stops the T3 timer for the initial active path, leaving all the other in-flight chunks waiting forever or until a new chunk is transmitted on the same path and timeouts (and this will happen only if the cwnd allows sending new chunks, but since cwnd was dropped to MTU by the timeout => it will wait until the first heartbeat). Example: 10 packets in flight, sent at 0.1 s intervals on the primary path. The primary path is down and the first packet timeouts. The first packet is retransmitted on another path, the T3 timer for the primary path is stopped and cwnd is set to MTU. All the other 9 in-flight packets will not be retransmitted (unless more new packets are sent on the primary path which depend on cwnd allowing it, and even in this case the 9 packets will be retransmitted only after a new packet timeouts which even in the best case would be more then RTO). This commit reverts d0ce92910bc04e107b2f3f2048f07e94f570035d and also removes the now unused transport->last_rto, introduced in b6157d8e03e1e780660a328f7183bcbfa4a93a19. p.s The problem is not only when multiple paths are there. It can happen in a single homed environment. If the application stops sending data, it possible to have a hung association.

As indicated by the comment, the aMPDU RX reorder code should logically be after ieee80211_rx_h_check(). The previous patch moved the code there, and this patch now hooks it up in that place by introducing a list of skbs that are then processed by the remaining handlers. The list may be empty if the function is buffering the skb to release it later. The only change needed to the RX data is that the crypto handler needs to clear the key that may be set from a previous loop iteration, and that not everything can be in the rx flags now.

Platform driver like eeepc-laptop ought to use works to rfkill (as new rfkill does lock in rfkill_unregister and the platform driver is called from rfkill_switch_all which also lock the same mutex). This raise a new issue in itself that the work scheduled by the platform driver to the global worqueue calls wiphy_unregister which flush_work scan and event works (which thus flush works on the global workqueue inside a work on the global workqueue) and also put on hold the wdev_cleanup_work (which prevents the dev_put on netdev thus indefinite Usage count error on wifi device).

2009-11-25xfrm: Use the user specified truncation length in ESP and AHMartin Willi
Instead of using the hardcoded truncation for authentication algorithms, use the truncation length specified on xfrm_state. Signed-off-by: Martin Willi <martin@strongswan.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-11-25xfrm: Store aalg in xfrm_state with a user specified truncation lengthMartin Willi
Adding a xfrm_state requires an authentication algorithm specified either as xfrm_algo or as xfrm_algo_auth with a specific truncation length. For compatibility, both attributes are dumped to userspace, and we also accept both attributes, but prefer the new syntax. If no truncation length is specified, or the authentication algorithm is specified using xfrm_algo, the truncation length from the algorithm description in the kernel is used.
