2006-09-22[IPV4]: ipip and ip_gre encapsulation bugsAl Viro
Handling of ipip and ip_gre ICMP error relaying is b0rken; it accesses 8bit field + 3 reserved octets as host-endian 32bit, does comparison, subtraction and stuffs the result back. That breaks on big-endian. Fixed, made endian-clean. [ Note that this effected code is permanently commented out with and ifdef, so this error couldn't actually cause problems for anyone. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-09-22[DCCP] CCID2: Add helper functions for changing important CCID2 stateAndrea Bittau
Introduce methods which manipulate interesting congestion control state such as pipe and rtt estimate. This is useful for people wishing to monitor the variables of CCID and instrument the code [perhaps using Kprobes]. Personally, I am a fan of encapsulation---that justifies this change =D.

2006-09-22[DCCP] CCID2: Halve cwnd once upon multiple losses in a single RTTAndrea Bittau
When multiple losses occur in one RTT, the window should be halved only once [a single "congestion event"]. This is now implemented, although not perfectly. Slightly changed the interface for changing the cwnd: pass hctx instead of dp. This is required in order to allow for change_cwnd to be called from _init().

2006-09-22[DCCP] CCID2: Allocate seq records on demandAndrea Bittau
Allocate more sequence state on demand. Each time a packet is sent out by CCID2, a record of it needs to be kept. This list of records grows proportionally to cwnd. Previously, the length of this list was hardcored and therefore the cwnd could only grow to this value (of 128). Now, records are allocated on demand as necessary---cwnd may grow as it wishes. The exceptional case of when memory is not available is not handled gracefully. Perhaps, cwnd should be capped at that point.

2006-09-22[DCCP] CCID2: Tell DCCP to quickly check whether cwnd is availableAndrea Bittau
If not enough cwnd is available, tell the sender to check again as soon as possible. This will increase CPU utilization (polling frequently for cwnd) but will improve network performance. That is, the sender will need to wait less before detecting the increase of cwnd. A better architecture would be for the CCID to call-back (or dequeue) from DCCP when it is able to transmit traffic -- not the other way around as it currently occurs.

2006-09-22[TCP]: Send ACKs each 2nd received segment.Alexey Kuznetsov
It does not affect either mss-sized connections (obviously) or connections controlled by Nagle (because there is only one small segment in flight). The idea is to record the fact that a small segment arrives on a connection, where one small segment has already been received and still not-ACKed. In this case ACK is forced after tcp_recvmsg() drains receive buffer. In other words, it is a "soft" each-2nd-segment ACK, which is enough to preserve ACK clock even when ABC is enabled.

2006-09-22[IPV6] address: Support NLM_F_EXCL when adding addressesThomas Graf
iproute2 doesn't provide the NLM_F_CREATE flag when adding addresses, it is assumed to be implied. The existing code issues a check on said flag when the modify operation fails (likely due to ENOENT) before continueing to create it, this leads to a hard to predict result, therefore the NLM_F_CREATE check is removed.

2006-09-22[TCP]: Fix rcv mss estimate for LROHerbert Xu
By passing a Linux-generated TSO packet straight back into Linux, Xen becomes our first LRO user :) Unfortunately, there is at least one spot in our stack that needs to be changed to cope with this. The receive MSS estimate is computed from the raw packet size. This is broken if the packet is GSO/LRO. Fortunately the real MSS can be found in gso_size so we simply need to use that if it is non-zero. Real LRO NICs should of course set the gso_size field in future.
