2005-11-09[NETFILTER] ctnetlink: add module alias to fix autoloadingPablo Neira Ayuso
Add missing module alias. This is a must to load ctnetlink on demand. For example, the conntrack tool will fail if the module isn't loaded. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This fixes an oops triggered from userspace. If we don't pass information about the private protocol info, the reference to attr will be NULL. This is likely to happen in update messages.

2005-11-09[PATCH] sanitize lookup_hash prototypeChristoph Hellwig
->permission and ->lookup have a struct nameidata * argument these days to pass down lookup intents. Unfortunately some callers of lookup_hash don't actually pass this one down. For lookup_one_len() we don't have a struct nameidata to pass down, but as this function is a library function only used by filesystem code this is an acceptable limitation. All other callers should pass down the nameidata, so this patch changes the lookup_hash interface to only take a struct nameidata argument and derives the other two arguments to __lookup_hash from it. All callers already have the nameidata argument available so this is not a problem. At the same time I'd like to deprecate the lookup_hash interface as there are better exported interfaces for filesystem usage. Before it can actually be removed I need to fix up rpc_pipefs.

2005-11-09[PATCH] add a vfs_permission helperChristoph Hellwig
Most permission() calls have a struct nameidata * available.

2005-11-08[IPV4]: Fix ip_queue_xmit identity increment for TSO packetsHerbert Xu
When ip_queue_xmit calls ip_select_ident_more for IP identity selection it gives it the wrong packet count for TSO packets. The ip_select_* functions expect one less than the number of packets, so we need to subtract one for TSO packets. This bug was diagnosed and fixed by Tom Young.

2005-11-08[IPVS]: fix connection leak if expire_nodest_conn=1Julian Anastasov
There was a fix in 2.6.13 that changed the behaviour of ip_vs_conn_expire_now function not to put reference to connection, its callers should hold write lock or connection refcnt. But we forgot to convert one caller, when the real server for connection is unavailable caller should put the connection reference. It happens only when sysctl var expire_nodest_conn is set to 1 and such connections never expire. Thanks to Roberto Nibali who found the problem and tested a 2.4.32-rc2 patch, which is equal to this 2.6 version. Patch for 2.4 is already sent to Marcelo.

2005-11-05[NET]: Fix race condition in sk_stream_wait_connectHerbert Xu
When sk_stream_wait_connect detects a state transition to ESTABLISHED or CLOSE_WAIT prior to it going to sleep, it will return without calling finish_wait and decrementing sk_write_pending. This may result in crashes and other unintended behaviour. The fix is to always call finish_wait and update sk_write_pending since it is safe to do so even if the wait entry is no longer on the queue. This bug was tracked down with the help of Alex Sidorenko and the fix is also based on his suggestion.

2005-11-05[NETEM]: Support time based reorderingStephen Hemminger
Change netem to support packets getting reordered because of variations in delay. Introduce a special case version of FIFO that queues packets in order based on the netem delay. Since netem is classful, those users that don't want jitter based reordering can just insert a pfifo instead of the default. This required changes to generic skbuff code to allow finer grain manipulation of sk_buff_head. Insertion into the middle and reverse walk.

2005-11-05[PKT_SCHED]: (G)RED: Introduce hard droppingThomas Graf
Introduces a new flag TC_RED_HARDDROP which specifies that if ECN marking is enabled packets should still be dropped once the average queue length exceeds the maximum threshold. This _may_ help to avoid global synchronisation during small bursts of peers advertising but not caring about ECN. Use this option very carefully, it does more harm than good if (qth_max - qth_min) does not cover at least two average burst cycles. The difference to the current behaviour, in which we'd run into the hard queue limit, is that due to the low pass filter of RED short bursts are less likely to cause a global synchronisation.

2005-11-05[PKT_SCHED]: GRED: Remove auto-creation of default VQThomas Graf
Since we are no longer depending on the default VQ to be always allocated we can leave it up to the user to actually create it.

2005-11-05[PKT_SCHED]: GRED: Dont abuse default VQ for equalizingThomas Graf
Introduces a new red parameter set for use in equalize mode, although only the qavg variable and the idle period marker are being used for now this makes it possible to allow a separate parameter set to be used for equalize later on. The use of this separate parameter set fixes a bogus start of an idle period in gred_drop() which did start an idle period on the default VQ even if equalize mode was disabled.
