2005-06-13[IPV4]: Sysctl configurable icmp error source address.J. Simonetti
This patch alows you to change the source address of icmp error messages. It applies cleanly to 2.6.11.11 and retains the default behaviour. In the old (default) behaviour icmp error messages are sent with the ip of the exiting interface. The new behaviour (when the sysctl variable is toggled on), it will send the message with the ip of the interface that received the packet that caused the icmp error. This is the behaviour network administrators will expect from a router. It makes debugging complicated network layouts much easier. Also, all 'vendor routers' I know of have the later behaviour.

2005-06-13[IPv6] Don't generate temporary for TUN devicesRémi Denis-Courmont
Userland layer-2 tunneling devices allocated through the TUNTAP driver (drivers/net/tun.c) have a type of ARPHRD_NONE, and have no link-layer address. The kernel complains at regular interval when IPv6 Privacy extension are enabled because it can't find an hardware address : Dec 29 11:02:04 auguste kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=cb3e0c00): cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes. IPv6 Privacy extensions should probably be disabled on that sort of device. They won't work anyway. If userland wants a more usual Ethernet-ish interface with usual IPv6 autoconfiguration, it will use a TAP device with an emulated link-layer and a random hardware address rather than a TUN device. As far as I could fine, TUN virtual device from TUNTAP is the very only sort of device using ARPHRD_NONE as kernel device type.

2005-05-30[NETFILTER]: Fix deadlock with ip_queue and tcp local input path.Harald Welte
When we have ip_queue being used from LOCAL_IN, then we end up with a situation where the verdicts coming back from userspace traverse the TCP input path from syscall context. While this seems to work most of the time, there's an ugly deadlock: syscall context is interrupted by the timer interrupt. When the timer interrupt leaves, the timer softirq get's scheduled and calls tcp_delack_timer() and alike. They themselves do bh_lock_sock(sk), which is already held from somewhere else -> boom. I've now tested the suggested solution by Patrick McHardy and Herbert Xu to simply use local_bh_{en,dis}able(). Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-05-29[BRIDGE]: receive path optimizationStephen Hemminger
This improves the bridge local receive path by avoiding going through another softirq.

2005-05-26[PKT_SCHED] netem: use only inner qdisc -- no private skbuff queueStephen Hemminger
Netem works better if there if packets are just queued in the inner discipline rather than having a separate delayed queue. Change to use the dequeue/requeue to peek like TBF does. By doing this potential qlen problems with the old method are avoided. The problems happened when the netem_run that moved packets from the inner discipline to the nested discipline failed (because inner queue was full). This happened in dequeue, so the effective qlen of the netem would be decreased (because of the drop), but there was no way to keep the outer qdisc (caller of netem dequeue) in sync. The problem window is still there since this patch doesn't address the issue of requeue failing in netem_dequeue, but that shouldn't happen since the sequence dequeue/requeue should always work. Long term correct fix is to implement qdisc->peek in all the qdisc's to allow for this (needed by several other qdisc's as well).

2005-05-26[PKT_SCHED]: netem: reinsert for duplicationStephen Hemminger

2005-05-23[TCP]: Fix stretch ACK performance killer when doing ucopy.David S. Miller
When we are doing ucopy, we try to defer the ACK generation to cleanup_rbuf(). This works most of the time very well, but if the ucopy prequeue is large, this ACKing behavior kills performance. With TSO, it is possible to fill the prequeue so large that by the time the ACK is sent and gets back to the sender, most of the window has emptied of data and performance suffers significantly. This behavior does help in some cases, so we should think about re-enabling this trick in the future, using some kind of limit in order to avoid the bug case. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-05-19[NETLINK]: Defer socket destruction a bitTommy S. Christensen
In netlink_broadcast() we're sending shared skb's to netlink listeners when possible (saves some copying). This is OK, since we hold the only other reference to the skb. However, this implies that we must drop our reference on the skb, before allowing a receiving socket to disappear. Otherwise, the socket buffer accounting is disrupted. Signed-off-by: Tommy S.

2005-05-19[NETLINK]: Fix race with recvmsg().Tommy S. Christensen
This bug causes: assertion (!atomic_read(&sk->sk_rmem_alloc)) failed at net/netlink/af_netlink.c (122) What's happening is that: 1) The skb is sent to socket 1. 2) Someone does a recvmsg on socket 1 and drops the ref on the skb. Note that the rmalloc is not returned at this point since the skb is still referenced. 3) The same skb is now sent to socket 2. This version of the fix resurrects the skb_orphan call that was moved out, last time we had 'shared-skb troubles'. It is practically a no-op in the common case, but still prevents the possible race with recvmsg. Signed-off-by: Tommy S.
