2015-12-17ipv6: add IPV6_HDRINCL option for raw socketsHannes Frederic Sowa1-0/+1
Same as in Windows, we miss IPV6_HDRINCL for SOL_IPV6 and SOL_RAW. The SOL_IP/IP_HDRINCL is not available for IPv6 sockets. Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-12-22in6: fix conflict with glibcstephen hemminger1-1/+2
Resolve conflicts between glibc definition of IPV6 socket options and those defined in Linux headers. Looks like earlier efforts to solve this did not cover all the definitions. It resolves warnings during iproute2 build. Please consider for stable as well.

2014-08-06net: reallocate new socket option number for IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABELPablo Neira1-1/+1
cb1ce2e ("ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit") accidentally uses socket option 64, which is already used by ip6tables: IP6T_SO_SET_REPLACE / IP6T_SO_GET_INFO 64 IP6T_SO_SET_ADD_COUNTERS / IP6T_SO_GET_ENTRIES 65 There is comment include/uapi/linux/in6.h warning about that. Allocate 70 for this, which seems to be unused instead. Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-07-07ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmitTom Herbert1-0/+1
Automatically generate flow labels for IPv6 packets on transmit. The flow label is computed based on skb_get_hash. The flow label will only automatically be set when it is zero otherwise (i.e. flow label manager hasn't set one). This supports the transmit side functionality of RFC 6438. Added an IPv6 sysctl auto_flowlabels to enable/disable this behavior system wide, and added IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL socket option to enable this functionality per socket. By default, auto flowlabels are disabled to avoid possible conflicts with flow label manager, however if this feature proves useful we may want to enable it by default. It should also be noted that FreeBSD has already implemented automatic flow labels (including the sysctl and socket option). In FreeBSD, automatic flow labels default to enabled. Performance impact: Running super_netperf with 200 flows for TCP_RR and UDP_RR for IPv6. Note that in UDP case, __skb_get_hash will be called for every packet with explains slight regression. In the TCP case the hash is saved in the socket so there is no regression.

2014-02-26ipv6: yet another new IPV6_MTU_DISCOVER option IPV6_PMTUDISC_OMITHannes Frederic Sowa1-0/+4
This option has the same semantic as IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT for IPv4 which got recently introduced. It doesn't honor the path mtu discovered by the host but in contrary to IPV6_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE allows the generation of fragments if the packet size exceeds the MTU of the outgoing interface MTU.

2014-02-06inet: defines IPPROTO_* needed for module alias generationJan Moskyto Matejka1-16/+7
Commit cfd280c91253 ("net: sync some IP headers with glibc") changed a set of define's to an enum (with no explanation why) which introduced a bug in module mip6 where aliases are generated using the IPPROTO_* defines; mip6 doesn't load if require_module called with the aliases from xfrm_get_type(). Reverting this change back to define's to fix the aliases. modinfo mip6 (before this change) alias: xfrm-type-10-IPPROTO_DSTOPTS alias: xfrm-type-10-IPPROTO_ROUTING modinfo mip6 (after this change) alias: xfrm-type-10-43 alias: xfrm-type-10-60 Signed-off-by: Jan Moskyto Matejka <mq@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-01-19ipv6: add a flag to get the flow label used remotlyFlorent Fourcot1-0/+1
This information is already available via IPV6_FLOWINFO of IPV6_2292PKTOPTIONS, and them a filtering to get the flow label information. But it is probably logical and easier for users to add this here, and to control both sent/received flow label values with the IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR option.

2014-01-19ipv6: add the IPV6_FL_F_REFLECT flag to IPV6_FL_A_GETFlorent Fourcot1-0/+1
With this option, the socket will reply with the flow label value read on received packets. The goal is to have a connection with the same flow label in both direction of the communication.

2013-12-18ipv6: support IPV6_PMTU_INTERFACE on socketsHannes Frederic Sowa1-0/+4
IPV6_PMTU_INTERFACE is the same as IPV6_PMTU_PROBE for ipv6. Add it nontheless for symmetry with IPv4 sockets. Also drop incoming MTU information if this mode is enabled. The additional bit in ipv6_pinfo just eats in the padding behind the bitfield. There are no changes to the layout of the struct at all.

2013-09-04net: sync some IP headers with glibcCarlos O'Donell1-7/+29
Solution: ========= - Synchronize linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' with glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h'. - Synchronize glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h with linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h'. - Allow including the headers in either other. - First header included defines the structures and macros. Details: ======== The kernel promises not to break the UAPI ABI so I don't see why we can't just have the two userspace headers coordinate? If you include the kernel headers first you get those, and if you include the glibc headers first you get those, and the following patch arranges a coordination and synchronization between the two. Let's handle `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' from linux, and `inet/netinet/in.h' from glibc and ensure they compile in any order and preserve the required ABI. These two patches pass the following compile tests: cat >> test1.c <<EOF int main (void) { return 0; } EOF gcc -c test1.c cat >> test2.c <<EOF int main (void) { return 0; } EOF gcc -c test2.c One wrinkle is that the kernel has a different name for one of the members in ipv6_mreq. In the kernel patch we create a macro to cover the uses of the old name, and while that's not entirely clean it's one of the best solutions (aside from an anonymous union which has other issues). I've reviewed the code and it looks to me like the ABI is assured and everything matches on both sides. Notes: - You want netinet/in.h to include bits/in.h as early as possible, but it needs in_addr so define in_addr early. - You want bits/in.h included as early as possible so you can use the linux specific code to define __USE_KERNEL_DEFS based on the _UAPI_* macro definition and use those to cull in.h. - glibc was missing IPPROTO_MH, added here. Compile tested and inspected.

2013-01-21mcast: define and use MRT[6]_MAX in ip[6]_mroute_opt()Nicolas Dichtel1-11/+4
This will ease further addition of new MRT[6]_* values and avoid to update in6.h each time. Note that we reduce the maximum value from 210 to 209, but 210 does not match any known value in ip[6]_mroute_setsockopt().

2012-11-02netfilter: ipv6: add getsockopt to retrieve origdstFlorian Westphal1-0/+1
userspace can query the original ipv4 destination address of a REDIRECTed connection via getsockopt(m_sock, SOL_IP, SO_ORIGINAL_DST, &m_server_addr, &addrsize) but for ipv6 no such option existed. This adds getsockopt(..., IPPROTO_IPV6, IP6T_SO_ORIGINAL_DST, ...). Without this, userspace needs to parse /proc or use ctnetlink, which appears to be overkill. This uses option number 80 for IP6T_SO_ORIGINAL_DST, which is spare, to use the same number we use in the IPv4 socket option SO_ORIGINAL_DST.
