2006-09-22[IPSEC] esp: Defer output IV initialization to first use.David S. Miller
First of all, if the xfrm_state only gets used for input packets this entropy is a complete waste. Secondly, it is often the case that a configuration loads many rules (perhaps even dynamically) and they don't all necessarily ever get used. This get_random_bytes() call was showing up in the profiles for xfrm_state inserts which is how I noticed this. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[XFRM]: Hash policies when non-prefixed.David S. Miller
This idea is from Alexey Kuznetsov. It is common for policies to be non-prefixed. And for that case we can optimize lookups, insert, etc. quite a bit. For each direction, we have a dynamically sized policy hash table for non-prefixed policies. We also have a hash table on policy->index. For prefixed policies, we have a list per-direction which we will consult on lookups when a non-prefix hashtable lookup fails. This still isn't as efficient as I would like it. There are four immediate problems: 1) Lots of excessive refcounting, which can be fixed just like xfrm_state was 2) We do 2 hash probes on insert, one to look for dups and one to allocate a unique policy->index. Althought I wonder how much this matters since xfrm_state inserts do up to 3 hash probes and that seems to perform fine. 3) xfrm_policy_insert() is very complex because of the priority ordering and entry replacement logic. 4) Lots of counter bumping, in addition to policy refcounts, in the form of xfrm_policy_count[]. This is merely used to let code path(s) know that some IPSEC rules exist. So this count is indexed per-direction, maybe that is overkill. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[XFRM]: Purge dst references to deleted SAs passively.David S. Miller
Just let GC and other normal mechanisms take care of getting rid of DST cache references to deleted xfrm_state objects instead of walking all the policy bundles. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[XFRM]: Do not flush all bundles on SA insert.David S. Miller
Instead, simply set all potentially aliasing existing xfrm_state objects to have the current generation counter value. This will make routes get relooked up the next time an existing route mentioning these aliased xfrm_state objects gets used, via xfrm_dst_check(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-09-22[XFRM]: Add generation count to xfrm_state and xfrm_dst.David S. Miller
Each xfrm_state inserted gets a new generation counter value. When a bundle is created, the xfrm_dst objects get the current generation counter of the xfrm_state they will attach to at dst->xfrm. xfrm_bundle_ok() will return false if it sees an xfrm_dst with a generation count different from the generation count of the xfrm_state that dst points to. This provides a facility by which to passively and cheaply invalidate cached IPSEC routes during SA database changes. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-09-22[XFRM]: Add sorting interface for state and template.Masahide NAKAMURA
Under two transformation policies it is required to merge them. This is a platform to sort state for outbound and templates for inbound respectively.

2006-09-22[XFRM] POLICY: sub policy support.Masahide NAKAMURA
Sub policy is introduced. Main and sub policy are applied the same flow. (Policy that current kernel uses is named as main.) It is required another transformation policy management to keep IPsec and Mobile IPv6 lives separate. Policy which lives shorter time in kernel should be a sub i.e. normally main is for IPsec and sub is for Mobile IPv6. (Such usage as two IPsec policies on different database can be used, too.) Limitation or TODOs: - Sub policy is not supported for per socket one (it is always inserted as main). - Current kernel makes cached outbound with flowi to skip searching database. However this patch makes it disabled only when "two policies are used and the first matched one is bypass case" because neither flowi nor bundle information knows about transformation template size.

2006-09-22[XFRM]: Introduce XFRM_MSG_REPORT.Masahide NAKAMURA
XFRM_MSG_REPORT is a message as notification of state protocol and selector from kernel to user-space.

2006-09-22[IPV6]: Allow to replace skbuff by TLV parser.Masahide NAKAMURA
In receiving Mobile IPv6 home address option which is a TLV carried by destination options header, kernel will try to mangle source adderss of packet. Think of cloned skbuff it is required to replace it by the parser just like routing header case. This is a framework to achieve that to allow TLV parser to replace inbound skbuff pointer.

2006-09-22[XFRM] IPV6: Restrict bundle reusingMasahide NAKAMURA
For outbound transformation, bundle is checked whether it is suitable for current flow to be reused or not. In such IPv6 case as below, transformation may apply incorrect bundle for the flow instead of creating another bundle: - The policy selector has destination prefix length < 128 (Two or more addresses can be matched it) - Its bundle holds dst entry of default route whose prefix length < 128 (Previous traffic was used such route as next hop) - The policy and the bundle were used a transport mode state and this time flow address is not matched the bundled state. This issue is found by Mobile IPv6 usage to protect mobility signaling by IPsec, but it is not a Mobile IPv6 specific. This patch adds strict check to xfrm_bundle_ok() for each state mode and address when prefix length is less than 128.

2006-09-22[XFRM] IPV6: Update outbound state timestamp for each sending.Masahide NAKAMURA
With this patch transformation state is updated last used time for each sending. Xtime is used for it like other state lifetime expiration. Mobile IPv6 enabled nodes will want to know traffic status of each binding (e.g. judgement to request binding refresh by correspondent node, or to keep home/care-of nonce alive by mobile node). The last used timestamp is an important hint about it. Based on MIPL2 kernel patch.

2006-09-22[XFRM] STATE: Support non-fragment outbound transformation headers.Masahide NAKAMURA
For originated outbound IPv6 packets which will fragment, ip6_append_data() should know length of extension headers before sending them and the length is carried by dst_entry. IPv6 IPsec headers fragment then transformation was designed to place all headers after fragment header. OTOH Mobile IPv6 extension headers do not fragment then it is a good idea to make dst_entry have non-fragment length to tell it to ip6_append_data().

2006-09-22[XFRM] STATE: Add a hook to obtain local/remote outbound address.Masahide NAKAMURA
Outbound transformation replaces both source and destination address with state's end-point addresses at the same time when IPsec tunnel mode. It is also required to change them for Mobile IPv6 route optimization, but we should care about the following differences: - changing result is not end-point but care-of address - either source or destination is replaced for each state This hook is a common platform to change outbound address.

2006-09-22[PKT_SCHED]: Kill pkt_act.h inlining.David S. Miller
This was simply making templates of functions and mostly causing a lot of code duplication in the classifier action modules. We solve this more cleanly by having a common "struct tcf_common" that hash worker functions contained once in act_api.c can work with. Callers work with real action objects that have the common struct plus their module specific struct members. You go from a common object to the higher level one using a "to_foo()" macro which makes use of container_of() to do the dirty work. This also kills off act_generic.h which was only used by act_simple.c and keeping it around was more work than the it's value. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
