As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but support to control which options are exported could be easily added. A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by new use cases.

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious. This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced asynchronious user -> kernel communication. The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the user. Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing may occur in the arbitrary process context. This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet processing right in the netlink_unicast. Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched. EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now. Signed-off-by: NDenis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Acked-by: NAlexey Kuznetsov <kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch removes the duplicate ipv6_{auth,esp,comp}_hdr structures since they're identical to the IPv4 versions. Duplicating them would only create problems for ourselves later when we need to add things like extended sequence numbers. I've also added transport header type conversion headers for these types which are now used by the transforms. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch adds support for having multiple parameters to a template, separated by a comma. It also adds support for integer parameters in addition to the current algorithm parameter type. This will be used by the authenc template which will have four parameters: the authentication algorithm, the encryption algorithm, the authentication size and the encryption key length.

This patch adds crypto_aead which is the interface for AEAD (Authenticated Encryption with Associated Data) algorithms. AEAD algorithms perform authentication and encryption in one step. Traditionally users (such as IPsec) would use two different crypto algorithms to perform these. With AEAD this comes down to one algorithm and one operation. Of course if traditional algorithms were used we'd still be doing two operations underneath. However, real AEAD algorithms may allow the underlying operations to be optimised as well.

Commit da3dedd9 ("[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.") changed the interface to NAPI polling. Fix up the ibm_emac driver so that it works with this new interface. This is actually a nice cleanup because ibm_emac is one of the drivers that wants to have multiple NAPI structures for a single net_device.

由 Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section, thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before. Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot. Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes" for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS is not set to save more space in memory. The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section, as noticed by David, since the init section will have references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already done with the __init_refok.

This enables applications to query the current value of the Maximum Packet Size via a socket option, suggested as a SHOULD in (RFC 4340, p. 102). This socket option is useful to avoid the annoying bail-out via `-EMSGSIZE'. In particular, as fragmentation is not currently supported (and its use is partly discouraged in RFC 4340). With this option, it is possible to size buffers accordingly, e.g. int buflen = dccp_get_cur_mps(sockfd); /* or */ if (msgsize > dccp_get_cur_mps(sockfd)) die("message is too large for this path"); Signed-off-by: NGerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: NIan McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: NArnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The existing OF glue code was crufty and broken. Rather than fix it, it will be removed, and the ethernet driver now talks to the device tree directly. The old, non-CONFIG_PPC_CPM_NEW_BINDING code can go away once CPM platforms are dropped from arch/ppc (which will hopefully be soon), and existing arch/powerpc boards that I wasn't able to test on for this patchset get converted (which should be even sooner).

Hook up the 93cx6 eeprom code to the ax88796 driver and modify the ax88796 driver to read out the mac address from the eeprom. We need this for the ax88796 on certain SuperH boards.

Keep track of disable_irq_nosync() invocations and call enable_irq() the right number of times if work has been cancelled that would include them. Now that the call to flush_work_keventd() (problematic because of rtnl_mutex being held) has been replaced by cancel_work_sync() another issue has arisen and been left unresolved. As the MDIO bus cannot be accessed from the interrupt context the PHY interrupt handler uses disable_irq_nosync() to prevent from looping and schedules some work to be done as a softirq, which, apart from handling the state change of the originating PHY, is responsible for reenabling the interrupt. Now if the interrupt line is shared by another device and a call to the softirq handler has been cancelled, that call to enable_irq() never happens and the other device cannot use its interrupt anymore as its stuck disabled. I decided to use a counter rather than a flag because there may be more than one call to phy_change() cancelled in the queue -- a real one and a fake one triggered by free_irq() if DEBUG_SHIRQ is used, if nothing else. Therefore because of its nesting property enable_irq() has to be called the right number of times to match the number disable_irq_nosync() was called and restore the original state. This DEBUG_SHIRQ feature is also the reason why free_irq() has to be called before cancel_work_sync(). While at it I updated the comment about phy_stop_interrupts() being called from `keventd' -- this is no longer relevant as the use of cancel_work_sync() makes such an approach unnecessary. OTOH a similar comment referring to flush_scheduled_work() in phy_stop() still applies as using cancel_work_sync() there would be dangerous. Checked with checkpatch.pl and at the run time (with and without DEBUG_SHIRQ). Signed-off-by: NMaciej W.

Stateless NAT is useful in controlled environments where restrictions are placed on through traffic such that we don't need connection tracking to correctly NAT protocol-specific data. In particular, this is of interest when the number of flows or the number of addresses being NATed is large, or if connection tracking information has to be replicated and where it is not practical to do so. Previously we had stateless NAT functionality which was integrated into the IPv4 routing subsystem. This was a great solution as long as the NAT worked on a subnet to subnet basis such that the number of NAT rules was relatively small. The reason is that for SNAT the routing based system had to perform a linear scan through the rules. If the number of rules is large then major renovations would have take place in the routing subsystem to make this practical. For the time being, the least intrusive way of achieving this is to use the u32 classifier written by Alexey Kuznetsov along with the actions infrastructure implemented by Jamal Hadi Salim. The following patch is an attempt at this problem by creating a new nat action that can be invoked from u32 hash tables which would allow large number of stateless NAT rules that can be used/updated in constant time. The actual NAT code is mostly based on the previous stateless NAT code written by Alexey. In future we might be able to utilise the protocol NAT code from netfilter to improve support for other protocols. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
