* ndisc.h: Remove extern from function prototypesJoe Perches2013-09-211-35/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

* ipv6: don't call fib6_run_gc() until routing is readyMichal Kubeček2013-09-111-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When loading the ipv6 module, ndisc_init() is called before ip6_route_init(). As the former registers a handler calling fib6_run_gc(), this opens a window to run the garbage collector before necessary data structures are initialized. If a network device is initialized in this window, adding MAC address to it triggers a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event, leading to a crash in fib6_clean_all(). Take the event handler registration out of ndisc_init() into a separate function ndisc_late_init() and move it after ip6_route_init().

| | | | | | | | | | | In function ndisc_redirect_rcv(), the skb->data points to the transport header, but function icmpv6_notify() need the skb->data points to the inner IP packet. So before using icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, change skb->data to point the inner IP packet that triggered the sending of the Redirect, and introduce struct rd_msg to make it easy.

* net: Dont use ifindices in hash fnsPavel Emelyanov2012-08-091-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eric noticed, that when there will be devices with equal indices, some hash functions that use them will become less effective as they could. Fix this in advance by mixing the net_device address into the hash value instead of the device index. This is true for arp and ndisc hash fns. The netlabel, can and llc ones are also ifindex-based, but that three are init_net-only, thus will not be affected. Many thanks to David and Eric for the hash32_ptr implementation!

* ipv6: Fix sporadic sendmsg -EINVAL when sending to multicast groups.David S. Miller2009-01-041-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Thanks to excellent diagnosis by Eduard Guzovsky. The core problem is that on a network with lots of active multicast traffic, the neighbour cache can fill up. If we try to allocate a new route and thus neighbour cache entry, the bog-standard GC attempt the neighbour layer does in ineffective because route entries hold a reference to the existing neighbour entries and GC can only liberate entries with no references. IPV4 already has a way to handle this, by doing a route cache GC in such situations (when neigh attach returns -ENOBUFS). So simply mimick this on the ipv6 side.

* bonding: send IPv6 neighbor advertisement on failoverBrian Haley2008-11-061-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds better IPv6 failover support for bonding devices, especially when in active-backup mode and there are only IPv6 addresses configured, as reported by Alex Sidorenko. - Creates a new file, net/drivers/bonding/bond_ipv6.c, for the IPv6-specific routines. Both regular bonds and VLANs over bonds are supported. - Adds a new tunable, num_unsol_na, to limit the number of unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements that are sent on a failover event. Default is 1. - Creates two new IPv6 neighbor discovery functions: ndisc_build_skb() ndisc_send_skb() These were required to support VLANs since we have to be able to add the VLAN id to the skb since ndisc_send_na() and friends shouldn't be asked to do this. These two routines are basically __ndisc_send() split into two pieces, in a slightly different order. - Updates Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and bumps the rev of bond support to 3.4.0. On failover, this new code will generate one packet: - An unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisement, which helps the switch learn that the address has moved to the new slave. Testing has shown that sending just the NA results in pretty good behavior when in active-back mode, I saw no lost ping packets for example.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but support to control which options are exported could be easily added. A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by new use cases.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
