2011-07-27net: Audit drivers to identify those needing IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING clearedNeil Horman
After the last patch, We are left in a state in which only drivers calling ether_setup have IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set (we assume that drivers touching real hardware call ether_setup for their net_devices and don't hold any state in their skbs. There are a handful of drivers that violate this assumption of course, and need to be fixed up. This patch identifies those drivers, and marks them as not being able to support the safe transmission of skbs by clearning the IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag in priv_flags Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: Karsten Keil <isdn@linux-pingi.de> CC: "David S.

2011-07-27net: add IFF_SKB_TX_SHARED flag to priv_flagsNeil Horman
Pktgen attempts to transmit shared skbs to net devices, which can't be used by some drivers as they keep state information in skbs. This patch adds a flag marking drivers as being able to handle shared skbs in their tx path. Drivers are defaulted to being unable to do so, but calling ether_setup enables this flag, as 90% of the drivers calling ether_setup touch real hardware and can handle shared skbs. A subsequent patch will audit drivers to ensure that the flag is set properly Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reported-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> CC: Robert Olsson <robert.olsson@its.uu.se> CC: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> CC: David S.

2011-07-26libceph: don't time out osd requests that haven't been receivedSage Weil
Keep track of when an outgoing message is ACKed (i.e., the server fully received it and, presumably, queued it for processing). Time out OSD requests only if it's been too long since they've been received. This prevents timeouts and connection thrashing when the OSDs are simply busy and are throttling the requests they read off the network.

2011-07-25notifiers: cpu: move cpu notifiers into cpu.hAmerigo Wang
We presently define all kinds of notifiers in notifier.h. This is not necessary at all, since different subsystems use different notifiers, they are almost non-related with each other. This can also save much build time. Suppose I add a new netdevice event, really I don't have to recompile all the source, just network related. Without this patch, all the source will be recompiled. I move the notify events near to their subsystem notifier registers, so that they can be found more easily. This patch: It is not necessary to share the same notifier.h.

"Disable router anycast address for /127 prefixes" says: | No need for matching code in addrconf_leave_anycast() as it | will silently ignore any attempt to leave an unknown anycast | address. After analysis, because 1) we may add two or more prefixes on the same interface, or 2)user may have manually joined that anycast, we may hit chances to have anycast address which as if we had generated one by /127 prefix and we should not leave from subnet- router anycast address unconditionally.

2011-07-22bridge: notifier called with the wrong devicestephen hemminger
If a new device is added to a bridge, the ethernet address of the bridge network device may change. When the address changes, the appropriate callback is called, but with the wrong device argument. The address of the bridge device (ie br0) changes not the address of the device being passed to add_if (ie eth0). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-07-22bridge: ignore bogus STP config packetsstephen hemminger
If the message_age is already greater than the max_age, then the BPDU is bogus. Linux won't generate BPDU, but conformance tester or buggy implementation might. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-07-22bridge: send proper message_age in config BPDUstephen hemminger
A bridge topology with three systems: +------+ +------+ | A(2) |--| B(1) | +------+ +------+ \ / +------+ | C(3) | +------+ What is supposed to happen: * bridge with the lowest ID is elected root (for example: B) * C detects that A->C is higher cost path and puts in blocking state What happens. Bridge with lowest id (B) is elected correctly as root and things start out fine initially. But then config BPDU doesn't get transmitted from A -> C. Because of that the link from A-C is transistioned to the forwarding state. The root cause of this is that the configuration messages is generated with bogus message age, and dropped before sending. In the standardmessage_age is supposed to be: the time since the generation of the Configuration BPDU by the Root that instigated the generation of this Configuration BPDU. Reimplement this by recording the timestamp (age + jiffies) when recording config information. The old code incorrectly used the time elapsed on the ageing timer which was incorrect.

icmp_route_lookup() uses the wrong flow parameters if the reverse session route lookup isn't used. So do not commit to the re-decoded flow until we actually make a final decision to use a real route saved in 'rt2'. Reported-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-07-21ipv4: Constrain UFO fragment sizes to multiples of 8 bytesBill Sommerfeld
Because the ip fragment offset field counts 8-byte chunks, ip fragments other than the last must contain a multiple of 8 bytes of payload. ip_ufo_append_data wasn't respecting this constraint and, depending on the MTU and ip option sizes, could create malformed non-final fragments.

2011-07-21ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictableEric Dumazet
IPv6 fragment identification generation is way beyond what we use for IPv4 : It uses a single generator. Its not scalable and allows DOS attacks. Now inetpeer is IPv6 aware, we can use it to provide a more secure and scalable frag ident generator (per destination, instead of system wide) This patch : 1) defines a new secure_ipv6_id() helper 2) extends inet_getid() to provide 32bit results 3) extends ipv6_select_ident() with a new dest parameter Reported-by: Fernando Gont <fernando@gont.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
