2008-01-31[NETFILTER]: xt_TCPMSS: consider reverse route's MTU in clamp-to-pmtuJan Engelhardt1-3/+59
The TCPMSS target in Xtables should consider the MTU of the reverse route on forwarded packets as part of the path MTU. Point in case: IN=ppp0, OUT=eth0. MSS set to 1460 in spite of MTU of ppp0 being 1392. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@computergmbh.de> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: Update modules' descriptionsJan Engelhardt1-1/+1
Updates the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() tags for all Netfilter modules, actually describing what the module does and not just "netfilter XYZ target".

2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: xt_TCPMSS: don't allow netfilter --setmss to increase mssBenjamin LaHaise1-2/+5
When terminating DSL connections for an assortment of random customers, I've found it necessary to use iptables to clamp the MSS used for connections to work around the various ICMP blackholes in the greater net. Unfortunately, the current behaviour in Linux is imperfect and actually make things worse, so I'm proposing the following: increasing the MSS in a packet can never be a good thing, so make --set-mss only lower the MSS in a packet. Yes, I am aware of --clamp-mss-to-pmtu, but it doesn't work for outgoing connections from clients (ie web traffic), as it only looks at the PMTU on the destination route, not the source of the packet (the DSL interfaces in question have a 1442 byte MTU while the destination ethernet interface is 1500 -- there are problematic hosts which use a 1300 byte MTU). Reworking that is probably a good idea at some point, but it's more work than this is.

2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: Convert old checksum helper namesPatrick McHardy1-8/+9
Kill the defines again, convert to the new checksum helper names and remove the dependency of NET_ACT_NAT on NETFILTER. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: Introduce NF_INET_ hook valuesPatrick McHardy1-6/+6
The IPv4 and IPv6 hook values are identical, yet some code tries to figure out the "correct" value by looking at the address family. Introduce NF_INET_* values for both IPv4 and IPv6. The old values are kept in a #ifndef __KERNEL__ section for userspace compatibility.

2007-11-30[NETFILTER]: xt_TCPMSS: remove network triggerable WARN_ONPatrick McHardy1-3/+1
ipv6_skip_exthdr() returns -1 for invalid packets. don't WARN_ON that. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
2007-10-15[NETFILTER]: Replace sk_buff ** with sk_buff *Herbert Xu1-26/+26
With all the users of the double pointers removed, this patch mops up by finally replacing all occurances of sk_buff ** in the netfilter API by sk_buff *. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-15[NETFILTER]: Avoid skb_copy/pskb_copy/skb_realloc_headroomHerbert Xu1-7/+3
This patch replaces unnecessary uses of skb_copy, pskb_copy and skb_realloc_headroom by functions such as skb_make_writable and pskb_expand_head. This allows us to remove the double pointers later.

2007-10-15[NETFILTER]: Do not copy skb in skb_make_writableHerbert Xu1-1/+1
Now that all callers of netfilter can guarantee that the skb is not shared, we no longer have to copy the skb in skb_make_writable. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce ipv6_hdr(), remove skb->nh.ipv6hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-2/+2
Now the skb->nh union has just one member, .raw, i.e. it is just like the skb->mac union, strange, no? I'm just leaving it like that till the transport layer is done with, when we'll rename skb->mac.raw to skb->mac_header (or ->mac_header_offset?), ditto for ->{h,nh}.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_network_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-2/+2
For the places where we need a pointer to the network header, it is still legal to touch skb->nh.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it to another layer header. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
