* SELinux: indicate fatal error in compat netfilter codeEric Paris2010-11-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | The SELinux ip postroute code indicates when policy rejected a packet and passes the error back up the stack. The compat code does not. This patch sends the same kind of error back up the stack in the compat code.

* SELinux: Only return netlink error when we know the return is fatalEric Paris2010-11-231-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Some of the SELinux netlink code returns a fatal error when the error might actually be transient. This patch just silently drops packets on potentially transient errors but continues to return a permanant error indicator when the denial was because of policy.

* macvlan: Introduce 'passthru' mode to takeover the underlying deviceSridhar Samudrala2010-11-222-1/+33
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the current default 'vepa' mode, a KVM guest using virtio with macvtap backend has the following limitations. - cannot change/add a mac address on the guest virtio-net - cannot create a vlan device on the guest virtio-net - cannot enable promiscuous mode on guest virtio-net To address these limitations, this patch introduces a new mode called 'passthru' when creating a macvlan device which allows takeover of the underlying device and passing it to a guest using virtio with macvtap backend. Only one macvlan device is allowed in passthru mode and it inherits the mac address from the underlying device and sets it in promiscuous mode to receive and forward all the packets.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unloading pktgen module needs ~6 seconds on a 64 cpus machine, to stop 64 kthreads. Add a pktgen_exiting variable to let kernel threads die faster, so that kthread_stop() doesnt have to wait too long for them. This variable is not tested in fast path. Note : Before exiting from pktgen_thread_worker(), we must make sure kthread_stop() is waiting for this thread to be stopped, like its done in kernel/softirq.c Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Do not allow for initiating communication if our secondary HT40 channel has is either disabled, has a passive scan flag, a no-ibss flag or is a radar channel.

The kobject needs to be zero'd in this case so that the state is not preserved across kobject_put()/kobject_init_and_add(). This resolves the following error report. ixgbe 0000:03:00.0: eth2: NIC Link is Up 10 Gbps, Flow Control: RX/TX kobject (ffff880324b83210): tried to init an initialized object, something is seriously wrong.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RCU conversion in IGMP code done in net-next-2.6 raised a race in __bond_resend_igmp_join_requests(). It iterates in_dev->mc_list without appropriate protection (RTNL, or read_lock on in_dev->mc_list_lock). Another cpu might delete an entry while we use it and trigger a fault.
