2009-01-13ipv6: Fix fib6_dump_table walker leakHerbert Xu
When a fib6 table dump is prematurely ended, we won't unlink its walker from the list. This causes all sorts of grief for other users of the list later.

ipv6_dev_get_saddr() ipv6_dev_get_saddr() blindly de-references dst_dev to get the network namespace, but some callers might pass NULL. Change callers to pass a namespace pointer instead. Signed-off-by: Brian Haley <brian.haley@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-25net: convert BUG_TRAP to generic WARN_ONIlpo Järvinen
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. Non-intuively BUG_TRAP() is actually equal to WARN_ON() rather than BUG_ON() though some might actually be promoted to BUG_ON() but I left that to future. I could make at least one BUILD_BUG_ON conversion. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-04-21[NETNS]: The ip6_fib_timer can work with garbage on net namespace stop.Pavel Emelyanov
The del_timer() function doesn't guarantee, that the timer callback is not active by the time it exits. Thus, the fib6_net_exit() may kfree() all the data, that is required by the fib6_run_gc(). The race window is tiny, but slab poisoning can trigger this bug. Using del_timer_sync() will cure this. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-03-03[NETNS][IPV6] ip6_fib - add net to gc timer parameterDaniel Lezcano
The fib tables are now relative to the network namespace. When the garbage collector timer expires, we must have a network namespace parameter in order to retrieve the tables. For now this is the init_net, but we should be able to have a timer per namespace and use the timer callback parameter to pass the network namespace from the expired timer. The timer callback, fib6_run_gc, is actually used to be called synchronously by some functions and asynchronously when the timer expires. When the timer expires, the delay specified for fib6_run_gc parameter is always zero. So, I changed fib6_run_gc to not be a timer callback but a function called by the timer callback and I added a timer callback where its work is just to retrieve from the data arg of the timer the network namespace and call fib6_run_gc with zero expiring time and the network namespace parameters. That makes the code cleaner for the fib6_run_gc callers. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-01-28[IPV6] route6/fib6: Don't panic a kmem_cache_create.Daniel Lezcano
If the kmem_cache_creation fails, the kernel will panic. It is acceptable if the system is booting, but if the ipv6 protocol is compiled as a module and it is loaded after the system has booted, do we want to panic instead of just failing to initialize the protocol ? The init function is now returning an error and this one is checked for protocol initialization. So the ipv6 protocol will safely fails.

2007-10-10[IPv6]: use container_of() macro in fib6_clean_node()Benjamin Thery
In ip6_fib.c, fib6_clean_node() casts a fib6_walker_t pointer to a fib6_cleaner_t pointer assuming a struct fib6_walker_t (field 'w') is the first field in struct fib6_walker_t. To prevent any future problems that may occur if one day a field is inadvertently inserted before the 'w' field in struct fib6_cleaner_t, (and to improve readability), this patch uses the container_of() macro.

2007-03-25[IPV6]: Fix routing round-robin locking.David S. Miller
As per RFC2461, section 6.3.6, item #2, when no routers on the matching list are known to be reachable or probably reachable we do round robin on those available routes so that we make sure to probe as many of them as possible to detect when one becomes reachable faster. Each routing table has a rwlock protecting the tree and the linked list of routes at each leaf. The round robin code executes during lookup and thus with the rwlock taken as a reader. A small local spinlock tries to provide protection but this does not work at all for two reasons: 1) The round-robin list manipulation, as coded, goes like this (with read lock held): walk routes finding head and tail spin_lock(); rotate list using head and tail spin_unlock(); While one thread is rotating the list, another thread can end up with stale values of head and tail and then proceed to corrupt the list when it gets the lock. This ends up causing the OOPS in fib6_add() later onthat many people have been hitting. 2) All the other code paths that run with the rwlock held as a reader do not expect the list to change on them, they expect it to remain completely fixed while they hold the lock in that way. So, simply stated, it is impossible to implement this correctly using a manipulation of the list without violating the rwlock locking semantics. Reimplement using a per-fib6_node round-robin pointer. This way we don't need to manipulate the list at all, and since the round-robin pointer can only ever point to real existing entries we don't need to perform any locking on the changing of the round-robin pointer itself. We only need to reset the round-robin pointer to NULL when the entry it is pointing to is removed. The idea is from Thomas Graf and it is very similar to how this was implemented before the advanced router selection code when in. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
