AP mode operations are seriously affected if mac80211 runs through a
multi-second scan while the AP is trying to send Beacon frames on the
operation channel. While this could be implemented in a way that does
not cause too many problems, it is not very simple and will require
synchronization with Beacon frame scheduling in the drivers (scan one
channel at a time between Beacon frames). Furthermore, such scanning
takes quite a bit longer time and existing userspace applications
would be likely to timeout while waiting for the results.
For now, just refuse requests for new scans (SIOCSIWSCAN) when in AP
mode. In practice, this moves the rejection from iwl* drivers into
mac80211 to make it apply to every mac80211-based driver.
This issue shows up in associated stations getting disconnected when
something (e.g., Network Manager) requests a scan while the interface
is in AP mode. When doing this continuously (e.g., NM does it every 120
seconds), the network gets close to useless.

There's no driver that actually does fragmentation on the
device, and the callback is buggy (when it returns an error,
mac80211's fragmentation status is changed so reading the
frag threshold from userspace reads the new value despite
the error). Let's just remove it, if we really find some
hardware supporting it we can add it back later.

This last patch makes the appropriate changes to use and propagate the
network namespace where needed in IPv6 multicast forwarding code.
This consists mainly in replacing all the remaining init_net occurences
with current netns pointer retrieved from sockets, net devices or
mfc6_caches depending on the routines' contexts.
Some routines receive a new 'struct net' parameter to propagate the current
netns:
* ip6mr_get_route
* ip6mr_cache_report
* ip6mr_cache_find
* ip6mr_cache_unresolved
* mif6_add/mif6_delete
* ip6mr_mfc_add/ip6mr_mfc_delete
* ip6mr_reg_vif
All the IPv6 multicast forwarding variables moved to struct netns_ipv6 by
the previous patches are now referenced in the correct namespace.
Changelog:
==========
* Take into account the net associated to mfc6_cache when matching entries in
mfc_unres_queue list.
* Call mroute_clean_tables() in ip6mr_net_exit() to free memory allocated
per-namespace.
* Call dev_net_set() in ip6mr_reg_vif() to initialize dev->nd_net
correctly.

Preliminary work to make IPv6 multicast forwarding netns-aware.
Declare variable cache_resolve_queue_len per-namespace: moves it into
struct netns_ipv6.
This variable counts the number of unresolved cache entries queued in the
list mfc_unres_queue. This list is kept global to all netns as the number
of entries per namespace is limited to 10 (hardcoded in routine
ip6mr_cache_unresolved).
Entries belonging to different namespaces in mfc_unres_queue will be
identified by matching the mfc_net member introduced previously in
struct mfc6_cache.
Keeping this list global to all netns, also allows us to keep a single
timer (ipmr_expire_timer) to handle their expiration.
In some places cache_resolve_queue_len value was tested for arming
or deleting the timer. These tests were equivalent to testing
mfc_unres_queue value instead and are replaced in this patch.
At the moment, cache_resolve_queue_len is only referenced in init_net.

A few months back a race was discused between the netpoll napi service
path, and the fast path through net_rx_action:
http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-netdev/2007/10/16/345470
A patch was submitted for that bug, but I think we missed a case.
Consider the following scenario:
INITIAL STATE
CPU0 has one napi_struct A on its poll_list
CPU1 is calling netpoll_send_skb and needs to call poll_napi on the same
napi_struct A that CPU0 has on its list
CPU0 CPU1
net_rx_action poll_napi
!list_empty (returns true) locks poll_lock for A
poll_one_napi
napi->poll
netif_rx_complete
__napi_complete
(removes A from poll_list)
list_entry(list->next)
In the above scenario, net_rx_action assumes that the per-cpu poll_list is
exclusive to that cpu. netpoll of course violates that, and because the netpoll
path can dequeue from the poll list, its possible for CPU0 to detect a non-empty
list at the top of the while loop in net_rx_action, but have it become empty by
the time it calls list_entry. Since the poll_list isn't surrounded by any other
structure, the returned data from that list_entry call in this situation is
garbage, and any number of crashes can result based on what exactly that garbage
is.
Given that its not fasible for performance reasons to place exclusive locks
arround each cpus poll list to provide that mutal exclusion, I think the best
solution is modify the netpoll path in such a way that we continue to guarantee
that the poll_list for a cpu is in fact exclusive to that cpu. To do this I've
implemented the patch below. It adds an additional bit to the state field in
the napi_struct. When executing napi->poll from the netpoll_path, this bit will
be set. When a driver calls netif_rx_complete, if that bit is set, it will not
remove the napi_struct from the poll_list. That work will be saved for the next
iteration of net_rx_action.
I've tested this and it seems to work well. About the biggest drawback I can
see to it is the fact that it might result in an extra loop through
net_rx_action in the event that the device is actually contended for (i.e. the
netpoll path actually preforms all the needed work no the device, and the call
to net_rx_action winds up doing nothing, except removing the napi_struct from
the poll_list. However I think this is probably a small price to pay, given
that the alternative is a crash.

This patch fixes minor annoyance during transmission of unsolicited
neighbor advertisements from userspace to multicast addresses (as
far as I can see in RFC, this is allowed and the similar functionality
for IPv4 has been in arping for a long time).
Outgoing multicast packets get reinserted into local processing as if they
are received from the network. The machine thus sees its own NA and fills
the logs with error messages. This patch removes the message if NA has been
generated locally.

As Stephen Rothwell points out, we don't want 'sock' here but
rather we really do want 'sk'.
This local var is protected by all sorts of bluetooth debugging
kconfig vars, but BT_DBG() is just a straight pr_debug() call
which is unconditional.
pr_debug() evaluates it's args only if either DEBUG or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is defined.
Solving this inside of the BT_DBG() macro is non-trivial since
it's varargs. And these ifdefs are ugly.
So, just mark this 'sk' thing __maybe_unused and kill the ifdefs.

This patch addresses a book-keeping issue in tcp_vegas.c. At present
tcp_vegas does separate book-keeping of cwnd based on packet sequence
numbers. A mismatch can develop between this book-keeping and
tp->snd_cwnd due, for example, to delayed acks acking multiple
packets. When vegas transitions to reno operation (e.g. following
loss), then this mismatch leads to incorrect behaviour (akin to a cwnd
backoff). This seems mostly to affect operation at low cwnds where
delayed acking can lead to a significant fraction of cwnd being
covered by a single ack, leading to the book-keeping mismatch. This
patch modifies the congestion avoidance update to avoid the need for
separate book-keeping while leaving vegas congestion avoidance
functionally unchanged. A secondary advantage of this modification is
that the use of fixed-point (via V_PARAM_SHIFT) and 64 bit arithmetic
is no longer necessary, simplifying the code.
Some example test measurements with the patched code (confirming no functional
change in the congestion avoidance algorithm) can be seen at:

This removes the use of the sysctl and the minisock variable for the Send Ack
Vector feature, as it now is handled fully dynamically via feature negotiation
(i.e. when CCID-2 is enabled, Ack Vectors are automatically enabled as per
RFC 4341, 4.).
Using a sysctl in parallel to this implementation would open the door to
crashes, since much of the code relies on tests of the boolean minisock /
sysctl variable. Thus, this patch replaces all tests of type
if (dccp_msk(sk)->dccpms_send_ack_vector)
/* ... */
with
if (dp->dccps_hc_rx_ackvec != NULL)
/* ... */
The dccps_hc_rx_ackvec is allocated by the dccp_hdlr_ackvec() when feature
negotiation concluded that Ack Vectors are to be used on the half-connection.
Otherwise, it is NULL (due to dccp_init_sock/dccp_create_openreq_child),
so that the test is a valid one.
The activation handler for Ack Vectors is called as soon as the feature
negotiation has concluded at the
* server when the Ack marking the transition RESPOND => OPEN arrives;
* client after it has sent its ACK, marking the transition REQUEST => PARTOPEN.
Adding the sequence number of the Response packet to the Ack Vector has been
removed, since
(a) connection establishment implies that the Response has been received;
(b) the CCIDs only look at packets received in the (PART)OPEN state, i.e.
this entry will always be ignored;
(c) it can not be used for anything useful - to detect loss for instance, only
packets received after the loss can serve as pseudo-dupacks.
There was a FIXME to change the error code when dccp_ackvec_add() fails.
I removed this after finding out that:
* the check whether ackno < ISN is already made earlier,
* this Response is likely the 1st packet with an Ackno that the client gets,
* so when dccp_ackvec_add() fails, the reason is likely not a packet error.

Updating the NDP count feature is handled automatically now:
* for CCID-2 it is disabled, since the code does not use NDP counts;
* for CCID-3 it is enabled, as NDP counts are used to determine loss lengths.
Allowing the user to change NDP values leads to unpredictable and failing
behaviour, since it is then possible to disable NDP counts even when they
are needed (e.g. in CCID-3).
This means that only those user settings are sensible that agree with the
values for Send NDP Count implied by the choice of CCID. But those settings
are already activated by the feature negotiation (CCID dependency tracking),
hence this form of support is redundant.
At startup the initialisation of the NDP count feature uses the default
value of 0, which is done implicitly by the zeroing-out of the socket when
it is allocated. If the choice of CCID or feature negotiation enables NDP
count, this will then be updated via the NDP activation handler.

The TX/RX CCIDs of the minisock are now redundant: similar to the Ack Vector
case, their value equals initially that of the sysctl, but at the end of
feature negotiation may be something different.
The old interface removed by this patch thus has been replaced by the newer
interface to dynamically query the currently loaded CCIDs.
Also removed are the constructors for the TX CCID and the RX CCID, since the
switch "rx <-> non-rx" is done by the handler in minisocks.c (and the handler
is the only place in the code where CCIDs are loaded).
