2005-04-24[IPV6]: export inet6_sock_nrArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-0/+1
Please apply, SCTP/DCCP needs this when INET_REFCNT_DEBUG is set. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-04-24[PKT_SCHED]: improve hashing performance of cls_fwThomas Graf1-4/+27
Calculate hashtable size to fit into a page instead of a hardcoded 256 buckets hash table. Results in a 1024 buckets hashtable on most systems. Replace old naive extract-8-lsb-bits algorithm with a better algorithm xor'ing 3 or 4 bit fields at the size of the hashtable array index in order to improve distribution if the majority of the lower bits are unused while keeping zero collision behaviour for the most common use case. Thanks to Wang Jian <lark@linux.net.cn> for bringing this issue to attention and to Eran Mann <emann@mrv.com> for the initial idea for this new algorithm.

2005-04-24[SELINUX]: Fix ipv6_skip_exthdr() invocation causing OOPS.Herbert Xu2-9/+6
The SELinux hooks invoke ipv6_skip_exthdr() with an incorrect length final argument. However, the length argument turns out to be superfluous. I was just reading ipv6_skip_exthdr and it occured to me that we can get rid of len altogether. The only place where len is used is to check whether the skb has two bytes for ipv6_opt_hdr. This check is done by skb_header_pointer/skb_copy_bits anyway. Now it might appear that we've made the code slower by deferring the check to skb_copy_bits. However, this check should not trigger in the common case so this is OK. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-04-24[TCP]: skb pcount with MTU discoveryDavid S. Miller1-11/+14
The problem is that when doing MTU discovery, the too-large segments in the write queue will be calculated as having a pcount of >1. When tcp_write_xmit() is trying to send, tcp_snd_test() fails the cwnd test when pcount > cwnd. The segments are eventually transmitted one at a time by keepalive, but this can take a long time. This patch checks if TSO is enabled when setting pcount. Signed-off-by: John Heffner <jheffner@psc.edu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-04-24[NETFILTER]: Fix NAT sequence number adjustmentPatrick McHardy3-16/+98
The NAT changes in 2.6.11 changed the position where helpers are called and perform packet mangling. Before 2.6.11, a NAT helper was called before the packet was NATed and had its sequence number adjusted. Since 2.6.11, the helpers get packets with already adjusted sequence numbers. This breaks sequence number adjustment, adjust_tcp_sequence() needs the original sequence number to determine whether a packet was a retransmission and to store it for further corrections. It can't be reconstructed without more information than available, so this patch restores the old order by calling helpers from a new conntrack hook two priorities below ip_conntrack_confirm() and adjusting the sequence number from a new NAT hook one priority below ip_conntrack_confirm().

2005-04-21[XFRM]: Fix existence lookup in xfrm_state_findPatrick McHardy1-2/+3
Use 'daddr' instead of &tmpl->id.daddr, since the latter might be zero. Also, only perform the lookup when tmpl->id.spi is non-zero. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When we are not the real parent of the dst (e.g., when we're xfrm_dst and the child is an rtentry), it may already be on the GC list. In fact the current code is buggy to, we need to check dst->flags before the dec as dst may no longer be valid afterwards.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds668-0/+356308
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
