2010-06-23bridge: 64bit rx/tx countersEric Dumazet3-13/+23
Use u64_stats_sync infrastructure to provide 64bit rx/tx counters even on 32bit hosts. It is safe to use a single u64_stats_sync for rx and tx, because BH is disabled on both, and we use per_cpu data. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-06-23net: consolidate netif_needs_gso() checksJohn Fastabend1-36/+32
netif_needs_gso() is checked twice in the TX path once, before submitting the skb to the qdisc and once after it is dequeued from the qdisc just before calling ndo_hard_start(). This opens a window for a user to change the gso/tso or tx checksum settings that can cause netif_needs_gso to be true in one check and false in the other. Specifically, changing TX checksum setting may cause the warning in skb_gso_segment() to be triggered if the checksum is calculated earlier. This consolidates the netif_needs_gso() calls so that the stack only checks if gso is needed in dev_hard_start_xmit().

2010-06-20caif: Add debug connection type for CAIF.Sjur Braendeland1-0/+5
Added new CAIF protocol type CAIFPROTO_DEBUG for accessing CAIF debug on the ST Ericsson modems. There are two debug servers on the modem, one for radio related debug (CAIF_RADIO_DEBUG_SERVICE) and the other for communication/application related debug (CAIF_COM_DEBUG_SERVICE). The debug connection can contain trace debug printouts or interactive debug used for debugging and test. Debug connections can be of type STREAM or SEQPACKET.

2010-06-16af_unix: Allow connecting to sockets in other network namespaces.Eric W. Biederman1-5/+2
Remove the restriction that only allows connecting to a unix domain socket identified by unix path that is in the same network namespace. Crossing network namespaces is always tricky and we did not support this at first, because of a strict policy of don't mix the namespaces. Later after Pavel proposed this we did not support this because no one had performed the audit to make certain using unix domain sockets across namespaces is safe. What fundamentally makes connecting to af_unix sockets in other namespaces is safe is that you have to have the proper permissions on the unix domain socket inode that lives in the filesystem. If you want strict isolation you just don't create inodes where unfriendlys can get at them, or with permissions that allow unfriendlys to open them. All nicely handled for us by the mount namespace and other standard file system facilities. I looked through unix domain sockets and they are a very controlled environment so none of the work that goes on in dev_forward_skb to make crossing namespaces safe appears needed, we are not loosing controll of the skb and so do not need to set up the skb to look like it is comming in fresh from the outside world. Further the fields in struct unix_skb_parms should not have any problems crossing network namespaces. Now that we handle SCM_CREDENTIALS in a way that gives useable values across namespaces. There does not appear to be any operational problems with encouraging the use of unix domain sockets across containers either. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

Previously it was possible to create a connection with sack, wscale, etc. enabled even if the feature was disabled via sysctl. Also remove an unneeded call to tcp_sack_reset() in cookie_check_timestamp: Both call sites (cookie_v4_check, cookie_v6_check) zero "struct tcp_options_received", hand it to tcp_parse_options() (which does not change tcp_opt->num_sacks/dsack) and then call cookie_check_timestamp().

2010-06-16inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structuresEric Dumazet3-6/+10
Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches. Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes. This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields, that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer. rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing. Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while. We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation.

2010-06-15inetpeer: RCU conversionEric Dumazet1-69/+95
inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock. It's possible to make most lookups use RCU 1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer 2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup(). 3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is needed in case we fall in a loop. 4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert. 5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase refcount, even while we hold peers.lock. 6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash. 7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup. Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form. If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed again. 8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock 9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 -> 128 bytes) In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts & tcp_ts_stamp.

2010-06-15mac80211: Use a separate CCMP PN receive counter for management framesJouni Malinen5-7/+22
When management frame protection (IEEE 802.11w) is used, we must use a separate counter for tracking received CCMP packet number for the management frames. The previously used NUM_RX_DATA_QUEUESth queue was shared with data frames when QoS was not used and that can cause problems in detecting replays incorrectly for robust management frames.

2010-06-15mac80211: Fix ps-qos network latency handlingJuuso Oikarinen4-14/+15
The ps-qos latency handling is broken. It uses predetermined latency values to select specific dynamic PS timeouts. With common AP configurations, these values overlap with beacon interval and are therefore essentially useless (for network latencies less than the beacon interval, PSM is disabled.) This patch remedies the problem by replacing the predetermined network latency values with one high value (1900ms) which is used to go trigger full psm. For backwards compatibility, the value 2000ms is still mapped to a dynamic ps timeout of 100ms. Currently also the mac80211 internal value for storing user space configured dynamic PSM values is incorrectly in the driver visible ieee80211_conf struct. Move it to the ieee80211_local struct.

2010-06-15bridge: Fix netpoll supportHerbert Xu4-84/+120
There are multiple problems with the newly added netpoll support: 1) Use-after-free on each netpoll packet. 2) Invoking unsafe code on netpoll/IRQ path. 3) Breaks when netpoll is enabled on the underlying device. This patch fixes all of these problems. In particular, we now allocate proper netpoll structures for each underlying device. We only allow netpoll to be enabled on the bridge when all the devices underneath it support netpoll. Once it is enabled, we do not allow non-netpoll devices to join the bridge (until netpoll is disabled again). This allows us to do away with the npinfo juggling that caused problem number 1. Incidentally this patch fixes number 2 by bypassing unsafe code such as multicast snooping and netfilter.

2010-06-15netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementationLuciano Coelho3-0/+327
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time. Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label> When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

Fix the problem by rewriting the way the hardware ARP filter list is handled - i.e. make a copy of the address list to the bss_conf struct, and provide that list to the hardware driver when needed. The current patch will enable filtering also in promiscuous mode. This may need to be changed in the future.

2010-06-14mac80211: bracket driver tracingJohannes Berg2-122/+156
Currently, driver tracing is sometimes invoked after and sometimes before the actual driver callback. This is fine as long as the driver has no tracing itself, but as soon as it does it gets confusing. To make traces containing such information easier to read, introduce a return tracer in mac80211 that essentially brackets any driver tracing, and invoke the real trace before the driver's callback, only showing the return value, if any, afterwards. Since tracing records the process, there's no problem with overlapping calls if that should happen. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
