2007-06-07[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: fix helper module unload racesPatrick McHarrdy
When a helper module is unloaded all conntracks refering to it have their helper pointer NULLed out, leading to lots of races. In most places this can be fixed by proper use of RCU (they do already check for != NULL, but in a racy way), additionally nf_conntrack_expect_related needs to bail out when no helper is present. Also remove two paranoid BUG_ONs in nf_conntrack_proto_gre that are racy and not worth fixing. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHarrdy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-04-25[NETLINK]: Introduce nlmsg_hdr() helperArnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_tArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4 64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN... :-) Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network, mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being meaningful as offsets or pointers.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_network_header_lenArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
For the common sequence "skb->h.raw - skb->nh.raw", similar to skb->mac_len, that is precalculated tho, don't think we need to bloat skb with one more member, so just use this new helper, reducing the number of non-skbuff.h references to the layer headers even more.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_transport_header(skb)Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
For the common, open coded 'skb->h.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can later turn skb->h.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in 64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit. This one touches just the most simple cases: skb->h.raw = skb->data; skb->h.raw = {skb_push|[__]skb_pull}() The next ones will handle the slightly more "complex" cases.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce ipv6_hdr(), remove skb->nh.ipv6hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Now the skb->nh union has just one member, .raw, i.e. it is just like the skb->mac union, strange, no? I'm just leaving it like that till the transport layer is done with, when we'll rename skb->mac.raw to skb->mac_header (or ->mac_header_offset?), ditto for ->{h,nh}.

2007-04-25[IP]: Introduce ip_hdrlen()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
For the common sequence "skb->nh.iph->ihl * 4", removing a good number of open coded skb->nh.iph uses, now to go after the rest... Just out of curiosity, here are the idioms found to get the same result: skb->nh.iph->ihl << 2 skb->nh.iph->ihl<<2 skb->nh.iph->ihl * 4 skb->nh.iph->ihl*4 (skb->nh.iph)->ihl * sizeof(u32) Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_network_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF] ipv6: More skb_reset_network_header conversions related to skb_pullArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Now related to this form: skb->nh.ipv6h = (struct ipv6hdr *)skb_put(skb, length); That, as the others, is done when skb->tail is still equal to skb->data, making the conversion to skb_reset_network_header possible. Also one more case equivalent to skb->nh.raw = skb->data, of this form: iph = (struct ipv6hdr *)skb->data; <SNIP> skb->nh.ipv6h = iph; Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-04-25[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_mac_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
For the places where we need a pointer to the mac header, it is still legal to touch skb->mac.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it to another layer header. This one also converts some more cases to skb_reset_mac_header() that my regex missed as it had no spaces before nor after '=', ugh.

2007-04-25[NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_tEric Dumazet
We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain 'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct sock. This has some drawbacks : - Fixed resolution of micro second. - Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16 I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution. As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...) Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS) Note : this patch includes a bug correction in compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> CC: John find <linux.kernel@free.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-03-07[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack_ipv6: fix incorrect classification of IPv6 ↵Patrick McHardy
fragments as ESTABLISHED The individual fragments of a packet reassembled by conntrack have the conntrack reference from the reassembled packet attached, but nfctinfo is not copied. This leaves it initialized to 0, which unfortunately is the value of IP_CT_ESTABLISHED. The result is that all IPv6 fragments are tracked as ESTABLISHED, allowing them to bypass a usual ruleset which accepts ESTABLISHED packets early.

2007-02-14[PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctlEric W. Biederman
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries. So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future enhancments harder. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

Commit 590bdf7fd2292b47c428111cb1360e312eff207e introduced a regression in match/target hook validation. mark_source_chains builds a bitmask for each rule representing the hooks it can be reached from, which is then used by the matches and targets to make sure they are only called from valid hooks. The patch moved the match/target specific validation before the mark_source_chains call, at which point the mask is always zero. This patch returns back to the old order and moves the standard checks to mark_source_chains. This allows to get rid of a special case for standard targets as a nice side-effect.
