| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | in network byte order. Any host byte order processing is done in local variables and host byte order values are never[1] written to a packet. After this change a packet processed by the stack isn't modified at all[2] except for TTL. After this change a network stack hacker doesn't need to scratch his head trying to figure out what is the byte order at the given place in the stack. [1] One exception still remains. The raw sockets convert host byte order before pass a packet to an application. Probably this would remain for ages for compatibility. [2] The ip_input() still subtructs header len from ip->ip_len, but this is planned to be fixed soon.

The operations are necessary to implement proper unix socket handling on layered file systems like nullfs(5). This change fixes the long standing issue with nullfs(5) being in that unix sockets did not work between lower and upper layers: if we bound to a socket on the lower layer we could connect only to the lower path; if we bound to the upper layer we could connect only to the upper path. The new behavior is one can connect to both the lower and the upper paths regardless what layer path one binds to. PR: kern/51583, kern/159663 Suggested by: kib Reviewed by: arch MFC after: 2 weeks

* A major overhaul of the CARP implementation. The ip_carp.c was startedglebius2011-12-161-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | from scratch, copying needed functionality from the old implemenation on demand, with a thorough review of all code. The main change is that interface layer has been removed from the CARP. Now redundant addresses are configured exactly on the interfaces, they run on. The CARP configuration itself is, as before, configured and read via SIOCSVH/SIOCGVH ioctls. A new prefix created with SIOCAIFADDR or SIOCAIFADDR_IN6 may now be configured to a particular virtual host id, which makes the prefix redundant. ifconfig(8) semantics has been changed too: now one doesn't need to clone carpXX interface, he/she should directly configure a vhid on a Ethernet interface. To supply vhid data from the kernel to an application the getifaddrs(8) function had been changed to pass ifam_data with each address. [1] The new implementation definitely closes all PRs related to carp(4) being an interface, and may close several others. It also allows to run a single redundant IP per interface. Big thanks to Bjoern Zeeb for his help with inet6 part of patch, for idea on using ifam_data and for several rounds of reviewing!
