2008-08-05ipv4: remove unused field in struct flowi (include/net/flow.h).Rami Rosen
This patch removes an unused field (flags) from struct flowi; it seems that this "flags" field was used once in the past for multipath routing with FLOWI_FLAG_MULTIPATHOLDROUTE flag (which does no longer exist); however, the "flags" field of struct flowi is not used anymore.

2008-08-04net: Kill plain NET_XMIT_BYPASS.David S. Miller
dst_input() was doing something completely absurd, looping on skb->dst->input() if NET_XMIT_BYPASS was seen, but these functions never return such an error. And as a result plain ole' NET_XMIT_BYPASS has no more references and can be completely killed off. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-08-04net_sched: Add qdisc __NET_XMIT_BYPASS flagJarek Poplawski
Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed that it would be nice to handle NET_XMIT_BYPASS by NET_XMIT_SUCCESS with an internal qdisc flag __NET_XMIT_BYPASS and to remove the mapping from dev_queue_xmit(). David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> spotted a serious bug in the first version of this patch. Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-08-04net_sched: Add qdisc __NET_XMIT_STOLEN flagJarek Poplawski
Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed: "The other problem that affects all qdiscs supporting actions is TC_ACT_QUEUED/TC_ACT_STOLEN getting mapped to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS even though the packet is not queued, corrupting upper qdiscs' qlen counters." and later explained: "The reason why it translates it at all seems to be to not increase the drops counter. Within a single qdisc this could be avoided by other means easily, upper qdiscs would still increase the counter when we return anything besides NET_XMIT_SUCCESS though. This means we need a new NET_XMIT return value to indicate this to the upper qdiscs. So I'd suggest to introduce NET_XMIT_STOLEN, return that to upper qdiscs and translate it to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS in dev_queue_xmit, similar to NET_XMIT_BYPASS." David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> noticed: "Maybe these NET_XMIT_* values being passed around should be a set of bits. They could be composed of base meanings, combined with specific attributes. So you could say "NET_XMIT_DROP | __NET_XMIT_NO_DROP_COUNT" The attributes get masked out by the top-level ->enqueue() caller, such that the base meanings are the only thing that make their way up into the stack. If it's only about communication within the qdisc tree, let's simply code it that way." This patch is trying to realize these ideas.

2008-08-03sctp: Drop ipfargok in sctp_xmit functionHerbert Xu
The ipfragok flag controls whether the packet may be fragmented either on the local host on beyond. The latter is only valid on IPv4. In fact, we never want to do the latter even on IPv4 when PMTU is enabled. This is because even though we can't fragment packets within SCTP due to the prtocol's inherent faults, we can still fragment it at IP layer. By setting the DF bit we will improve the PMTU process. RFC 2960 only says that we SHOULD clear the DF bit in this case, so we're compliant even if we set the DF bit. In fact RFC 4960 no longer has this statement. Once we make this change, we only need to control the local fragmentation. There is already a bit in the skb which controls that, local_df. So this patch sets that instead of using the ipfragok argument. The only complication is that there isn't a struct sock object per transport, so for IPv4 we have to resort to changing the pmtudisc field for every packet. This should be safe though as the protocol is single-threaded. Note that after this patch we can remove ipfragok from the rest of the stack too.

2008-07-31ipvs: Move userspace definitions to include/linux/ip_vs.hJulius Volz
Current versions of ipvsadm include "/usr/src/linux/include/net/ip_vs.h" directly. This file also contains kernel-only definitions. Normally, public definitions should live in include/linux, so this patch moves the definitions shared with userspace to a new file, "include/linux/ip_vs.h". This also removes the unused NFC_IPVS_PROPERTY bitmask, which was once used to point into skb->nfcache. To make old ipvsadms still compile with this, the old header file includes the new one. Thanks to Dave Miller and Horms for noting/adding the missing Kbuild entry for the new header file.

2008-07-29mac80211: partially fix skb->cb useJohannes Berg
This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now, disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing, will fix that in a separate patch.

2008-07-27net: missing bits of net-namespace / sysctlAl Viro
Piss-poor sysctl registration API strikes again, film at 11... What we really need is _pathname_ required to be present in already registered table, so that kernel could warn about bad order. That's the next target for sysctl stuff (and generally saner and more explicit order of initialization of ipv[46] internals wouldn't hurt either). For the time being, here are full fixups required by ..._rotable() stuff; we make per-net sysctl sets descendents of "ro" one and make sure that sufficient skeleton is there before we start registering per-net sysctls.

Removes legacy reinvent-the-wheel type thing. The generic machinery integrates much better to automated debugging aids such as kerneloops.org (and others), and is unambiguous due to better naming.

2008-07-21netfilter: accounting rework: ct_extend + 64bit counters (v4)Krzysztof Piotr Oledzki
Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime. This patch: - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure, - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(), - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n), - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs, - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit, - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter, - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT), - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling. If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend. Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with acct extend regardless of a current state of "net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_acct".

2008-07-19tcp: options clean upAdam Langley
This should fix the following bugs: * Connections with MD5 signatures produce invalid packets whenever SACK options are included * MD5 signatures are counted twice in the MSS calculations Behaviour changes: * A SYN with MD5 + SACK + TS elicits a SYNACK with MD5 + SACK This is because we can't fit any SACK blocks in a packet with MD5 + TS options. There was discussion about disabling SACK rather than TS in order to fit in better with old, buggy kernels, but that was deemed to be unnecessary. * SYNs with MD5 don't include a TS option See above. Additionally, it removes a bunch of duplicated logic for calculating options, which should help avoid these sort of issues in the future.
