2008-04-23IPv6 support for NFS server export cachesAurélien Charbon
This adds IPv6 support to the interfaces that are used to express nfsd exports. All addressed are stored internally as IPv6; backwards compatibility is maintained using mapped addresses.

2008-04-22[IPSEC]: Fix catch-22 with algorithm IDs above 31Herbert Xu
As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms with an ID above 31 portably. It just happens to work on x86 but fails miserably on ppc64. The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide. After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature. For current applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when the bit masks are all ~0. The following patch does exactly that. This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251.

2008-04-17[INET]: Drop the inet_inherit_port() call.Pavel Emelyanov
As I can see from the code, two places (tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock and dccp_v6_request_recv_sock) that call this one already run with BHs disabled, so it's safe to call __inet_inherit_port there. Besides (in case I missed smth with code review) the calltrace tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock `- tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock `- __inet_inherit_port and the similar for DCCP are valid, but assumes BHs to be disabled.

2008-04-16mac80211: no BSS changes to driver from beacons processed during scanningReinette Chatre
There is no need to send BSS changes to driver from beacons processed during scanning. We are more interested in beacons from an AP with which we are associated - these will still be used to send updates to driver as the beacons are received without scanning. This change·removes the requirement that bss_info_changed needs to be atomic. The beacons received during scanning are processed from a tasklet, but if we do not call bss_info_changed for these beacons there is no need for it to be atomic. This function (bss_info_changed) is called either from workqueue or ioctl in all other instances.

2008-04-15[NETNS]: The generic per-net pointers.Pavel Emelyanov
Add the elastic array of void * pointer to the struct net. The access rules are simple: 1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get the id of your private pointer 2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the struct net (most preferably this should be done in the ->init callback of the ops registered) 3. do not store any private reference on the net_generic array; 4. do not change this pointer while the net is alive; 5. use the net_generic() to get the pointer. When adding a new pointer, I copy the old array, replace it with a new one and schedule the old for kfree after an RCU grace period. Since the net_generic explores the net->gen array inside rcu read section and once set the net->gen->ptr[x] pointer never changes, this grants us a safe access to generic pointers. Quoting Paul: "... RCU is protecting -only- the net_generic structure that net_generic() is traversing, and the [pointer] returned by net_generic() is protected by a reference counter in the upper-level struct net."

2008-04-15[NETNS]: The net-subsys IDs generator.Pavel Emelyanov
To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to address them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs generator for pernet subsystems. Addressing questions about potential checkpoint/restart problems: these IDs are "lite-offsets" within the net structure and are by no means supposed to be exported to the userspace. Since it will be used in the nearest future by devices only (tun, vlan, tunnels, bridge, etc), I make it resemble the functionality of register_pernet_device(). The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the init callback to make this id available in this callback. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-04-15[TIPC]: Overhaul of socket locking logicAllan Stephens
This patch modifies TIPC's socket code to follow the same approach used by other protocols. This change eliminates the need for a mutex in the TIPC-specific portion of the socket protocol data structure -- in its place, the standard Linux socket backlog queue and associated locking routines are utilized. These changes fix a long-standing receive queue bug on SMP systems, and also enable individual read and write threads to utilize a socket without unnecessarily interfering with each other.

2008-04-14[NETFILTER]: nf_nat: kill helper and seq_adjust hooksPatrick McHardy
Connection tracking helpers (specifically FTP) need to be called before NAT sequence numbers adjustments are performed to be able to compare them against previously seen ones. We've introduced two new hooks around 2.6.11 to maintain this ordering when NAT modules were changed to get called from conntrack helpers directly. The cost of netfilter hooks is quite high and sequence number adjustments are only rarely needed however. Add a RCU-protected sequence number adjustment function pointer and call it from IPv4 conntrack after calling the helper. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2008-04-14[NETFILTER]: nf_nat: don't add NAT extension for confirmed conntracksPatrick McHardy
Adding extensions to confirmed conntracks is not allowed to avoid races on reallocation. Don't setup NAT for confirmed conntracks in case NAT module is loaded late. The has one side-effect, the connections existing before the NAT module was loaded won't enter the bysource hash. The only case where this actually makes a difference is in case of SNAT to a multirange where the IP before NAT is also part of the range. Since old connections don't enter the bysource hash the first new connection from the IP will have a new address selected. This shouldn't matter at all.

Allow the use of SACK and window scaling when syncookies are used and the client supports tcp timestamps. Options are encoded into the timestamp sent in the syn-ack and restored from the timestamp echo when the ack is received. Based on earlier work by Glenn Griffin.

The downside is that the timestamp sent in the packet after the synack will increase by several seconds. changes since v1: don't duplicate timestamp echo decoding function, put it into ipv4/syncookie.c and have ipv6/syncookies.c use it.
