2009-01-21tun: Implement ip link del tunXXXEric W. Biederman
This greatly simplifies testing to verify I have fixed the problems with a tun device disappearing when the tun file descriptor is still held open. Further it allows removal network namespace operations for the tun driver. Reducing the network namespace handling in the driver to the minimum. i.e. When we are creating a tun device.

2009-01-21tun: There is no longer any need to deny changing network namespacesEric W. Biederman
With the awkward case between free_netdev and dev_chr_close fixed there is no longer any need to limit tun and tap devices to the network namespace they were created in. So remove the NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL flag on the network device. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-01-21tun: Fix races between tun_net_close and free_netdev.Eric W. Biederman
The tun code does not cope gracefully if the network device goes away before the tun file descriptor is closed. It looks like we can trigger this with rmmod, and moving tun devices between network namespaces will allow this to be triggered when network namespaces exit. To fix this I introduce an intermediate data structure tun_file which holds a count of users and a pointer to the struct tun_struct. tun_get increments that reference count if it is greater than 0. tun_put decrements that reference count and detaches from the network device if the count is 0. While we have a file attached to the network device I hold a reference to the network device keeping it from going away completely. When a network device is unregistered I decrement the count of the attached tun_file and if that was the last user I detach the tun_file, and all processes on read_wait are woken up to ensure they do not sleep indefinitely. As some of those sleeps happen with the count on the tun device elevated waking up the read waiters ensures that tun_file will be detached in a timely manner. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2009-01-21tun: Move read_wait into tun_fileEric W. Biederman
The poll interface requires that the waitqueue exist while the struct file is open. In the rare case when a tun device disappears before the tun file closes we fail to provide this property, so move read_wait. This is safe now that tun_net_xmit is atomic with tun_detach.

2009-01-21tun: Make tun_net_xmit atomic wrt tun_attach && tun_detachEric W. Biederman
Currently this small race allows for a packet to be received when we detach from an tun device and still be enqueued. Not especially important but not what the code is trying to do. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-01-21tun: Grab the netns in open.Eric W. Biederman
Grabbing namespaces in open, and putting them in close always seems to be the cleanest approach with the fewest surprises. So now that we have tun_file so we have somepleace to put the network namespace, let's grab the network namespace on file open and put on file close. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-01-21tun: Introduce tun_fileEric W. Biederman
Currently the tun code suffers from only having a single word of data that exists for the entire life of the tun file descriptor. This results in peculiar holding of references to the network namespace as well as races between free_netdevice and tun_chr_close. Fix this by introducing tun_file which will hold the per file state. For the moment it still holds just a single word so the differences are all logic changes with no changes in semantics. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2009-01-21tun: Use POLLERR not EBADF in tun_chr_pollEric W. Biederman

2009-01-21tun: Fix races in tun_set_iffEric W. Biederman
It is possible for two different tasks with access to the same file descriptor to call tun_set_iff on it at the same time and race to attach to a tap device. Prevent this by placing all of the logic to attach to a file descriptor in one function and testing the file descriptor to be certain it is not already attached to another tun device.

2009-01-21tun: Remove unnecessary tun_get_by_nameEric W. Biederman
Currently the tun driver keeps a private list of tun devices for what appears to be a small gain in performance when reconnecting a file descriptor to an existing tun or tap device.

2009-01-21net: pppoe - introduce net-namespace functionalityCyrill Gorcunov
- each net-namespace for pppoe module is having own hash table and appropriate locks wich are allocated at time of namespace intialization.

2009-01-21igb: Replace LRO with GROHerbert Xu
This patch makes igb invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO. As GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very straightforward replacement. Three things of note: 1) I've kept the LRO Kconfig option until we decide to enable GRO across the board at which point it can also be killed. 2) The poll_controller stuff is broken in igb as it tries to do the same work as the normal poll routine. Since poll_controller can be called in the middle of a poll, this can't be good. I noticed this because poll_controller can invoke the GRO hooks without flushing held GRO packets. However, this should be harmless (assuming the poll_controller bug above doesn't kill you first :) since the next ->poll will clear the backlog. The only time when we'll have a problem is if we're already executing the GRO code on the same ring, but that's no worse than what happens now. 3) I kept the ip_summed check before calling GRO so that we're on par with previous behaviour.

2009-01-21sfc: Replace LRO with GROHerbert Xu
This patch makes sfc invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO. As GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very straightforward replacement. Everything should appear identical to the user except that the offload is now controlled by the GRO ethtool option instead of LRO. I've kept the lro module parameter as is since that's for compatibility only. I have eliminated efx_rx_mk_skb as the GRO layer can take care of all packets regardless of whether GRO is enabled or not. So the only case where we don't call GRO is if the packet checksum is absent. This is to keep the behaviour changes of the patch to a minimum.
