2009-09-15bonding: remap muticast addresses without using dev_close() and dev_open()Moni Shoua
This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses. This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks: *. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat) and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. *. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing table, which might be unnecessary. The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

2009-03-24ipv6: Fix conflict resolutions during ipv6 bindingVlad Yasevich
The ipv6 version of bind_conflict code calls ipv6_rcv_saddr_equal() which at times wrongly identified intersections between addresses. It particularly broke down under a few instances and caused erroneous bind conflicts. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-06-12ipv6 netns: Address labels per namespaceBenjamin Thery
This pacth makes IPv6 address labels per network namespace. It keeps the global label tables, ip6addrlbl_table, but adds a 'net' member to each ip6addrlbl_entry. This new member is taken into account when matching labels. Changelog ========= * v1: Initial version * v2: * Minize the penalty when network namespaces are not configured: * the 'net' member is added only if CONFIG_NET_NS is defined. This saves space when network namespaces are not configured. * 'net' value is retrieved with the inlined function ip6addrlbl_net() that always return &init_net when CONFIG_NET_NS is not defined. * 'net' member in ip6addrlbl_entry renamed to the less generic 'lbl_net' name (helps code search).

This patch includes support for the Intra-Site Automatic Tunnel Addressing Protocol (ISATAP) per RFC4214. It uses the SIT module, and is configured using extensions to the "iproute2" utility. The diffs are specific to the Linux 2.6.24-rc2 kernel distribution. This version includes the diff for ./include/linux/if.h which was missing in the v2.4 submission and is needed to make the patch compile.

2007-07-10[IPV6] MIP6: Loadable module support for MIPv6.Masahide NAKAMURA
This patch makes MIPv6 loadable module named "mip6". Here is a modprobe.conf(5) example to load it automatically when user application uses XFRM state for MIPv6: alias xfrm-type-10-43 mip6 alias xfrm-type-10-60 mip6 Some MIPv6 feature is not included by this modular, however, it should not be affected to other features like either IPsec or IPv6 with and without the patch. We may discuss XFRM, MH (RAW socket) and ancillary data/sockopt separately for future work. Loadable features: * MH receiving check (to send ICMP error back) * RO header parsing and building (i.e. RH2 and HAO in DSTOPTS) * XFRM policy/state database handling for RO These are NOT covered as loadable: * Home Address flags and its rule on source address selection * XFRM sub policy (depends on its own kernel option) * XFRM functions to receive RO as IPv6 extension header * MH sending/receiving through raw socket if user application opens it (since raw socket allows to do so) * RH2 sending as ancillary data * RH2 operation with setsockopt(2) Signed-off-by: Masahide NAKAMURA <nakam@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-04-25[IPV6] ADDRCONF: Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection (RFC 4429) Support.Neil Horman
Nominally an autoconfigured IPv6 address is added to an interface in the Tentative state (as per RFC 2462). Addresses in this state remain in this state while the Duplicate Address Detection process operates on them to determine their uniqueness on the network. During this period, these tentative addresses may not be used for communication, increasing the time before a node may be able to communicate on a network. Using Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection, autoconfigured addresses may be used immediately for communication on the network, as long as certain rules are followed to avoid conflicts with other nodes during the Duplicate Address Detection process.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
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!
