* [TCP]: Wrap-safed reordering detection FRTO checkIlpo Järvinen2007-10-101-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | In case somebody has a suggestion about a better place for this check, which must guarantee execution "early enough" (i.e, before the wrap can occur), I'm very open to them.

* [TCP]: Update comment of SACK block validatorIlpo Järvinen2007-10-101-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Just came across what RFC2018 states about generation of valid SACK blocks in case of reneging. Alter comment a bit to point out clearly. IMHO, there isn't any reason to change code because the validation is there for a purpose (counters will inform user about decision TCP made if this case ever surfaces).

* [PATCH] mac80211: fix iff_promiscs, iff_allmultis raceJohannes Berg2007-10-103-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we update the counters iff_promiscs and iff_allmultis in struct ieee80211_local we have no common lock held to protect them. The problem is that the update to each counter may not be atomic, so we could end up with iff_promiscs == -1 in unfortunate conditions. To fix it, use atomic_t values. It doesn't matter whether the two counters are updated together atomically or not, if there are two invocations of set_multicast_list we will end up with multiple configure_filter() invocations of which the latter will always be correct.

* [PATCH] mac80211: fix interface initialisation and deinitialisationJohannes Berg2007-10-102-12/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an interface is registered it is still uninitialised so ieee80211_if_reinit() can't be called on it (it will oops.) Hence, we need to move the uninit method assignment. Also, this patch fixes the bug that the master device is never initialised nor deinitialised at all. Oddly, the deinit code had an if statement to not run some code when running for the master interface (which never happened), but that if statement is also wrong. Fix that too. Now that the uninit code is run for the master device, another bug surfaced: it tries to remove all dependent interfaces and that oopses or BUGs at some point, either because it unregisters already unregistered interfaces (missing list_del bug) or due to trying to iterate a list that has had other things removed. Fix this too by handling the master interface specially. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
* [PKT_SCHED]: Add stateless NATHerbert Xu2007-10-103-0/+334
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [PATCH] mac80211: fix virtual interface lockingJohannes Berg2007-10-106-65/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Florian Lohoff noticed a bug in mac80211: when bringing the master interface down while other virtual interfaces are up we call dev_close() under a spinlock which is not allowed. This patch removes the sub_if_lock used by mac80211 in favour of using an RCU list. All list manipulations are already done under rtnl so are well protected against each other, and the read-side locks we took in the RX and TX code are already in RCU read-side critical sections.

* [PATCH] mac80211: revamp interface and filter configurationJohannes Berg2007-10-105-247/+162
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drivers are currently supposed to keep track of monitor interfaces if they allow so-called "hard" monitor, and they are also supposed to keep track of multicast etc. This patch changes that, replaces the set_multicast_list() callback with a new configure_filter() callback that takes filter flags (FIF_*) instead of interface flags (IFF_*). For a driver, this means it should open the filter as much as necessary to get all frames requested by the filter flags. Accordingly, the filter flags are named "positively", e.g. FIF_ALLMULTI. Multicast filtering is a bit special in that drivers that have no multicast address filters need to allow multicast frames through when either the FIF_ALLMULTI flag is set or when the mc_count value is positive. At the same time, drivers are no longer notified about monitor interfaces at all, this means they now need to implement the start() and stop() callbacks and the new change_filter_flags() callback. Also, the start()/stop() ordering changed, start() is now called *before* any add_interface() as it really should be, and stop() after any remove_interface(). The patch also changes the behaviour of setting the bssid to multicast for scanning when IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING is set; the IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING flag is removed and the filter flag FIF_BCN_PRBRESP_PROMISC introduced. This is a lot more efficient for hardware like b43 that supports it and other hardware can still set the BSSID to all-ones.

* [NETNS]: Simplify the network namespace list locking rules.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-101-17/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Denis V. Lunev <den@sw.ru> noticed that the locking rules for the network namespace list are over complicated and broken. In particular the current register_netdev_notifier currently does not take any lock making the for_each_net iteration racy with network namespace creation and destruction. Oops. The fact that we need to use for_each_net in rtnl_unlock() when the rtnetlink support becomes per network namespace makes designing the proper locking tricky. In addition we need to be able to call rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() when we have the net_mutex held. After thinking about it and looking at the alternatives carefully it looks like the simplest and most maintainable solution is to remove net_list_mutex altogether, and to use the rtnl_mutex instead.
