* netfilter: xtables: provide invoked family value to extensionsJan Engelhardt2008-10-081-3/+8
| | | | | | | | | By passing in the family through which extensions were invoked, a bit of data space can be reclaimed. The "family" member will be added to the parameter structures and the check functions be adjusted. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

* netfilter: xtables: move extension arguments into compound structure (1/6)Jan Engelhardt2008-10-0811-47/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function signatures for Xtables extensions have grown over time. It involves a lot of typing/replication, and also a bit of stack space even if they are not used. Realize an NFWS2008 idea and pack them into structs. The skb remains outside of the struct so gcc can continue to apply its optimizations. This patch does this for match extensions' match functions. A few ambiguities have also been addressed. The "offset" parameter for example has been renamed to "fragoff" (there are so many different offsets already) and "protoff" to "thoff" (there is more than just one protocol here, so clarify).

| * bridge: don't allow setting hello time to zeroStephen Hemminger2008-09-082-9/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Dushan Tcholich reports that on his system ksoftirqd can consume between %6 to %10 of cpu time, and cause ~200 context switches per second. He then correlated this with a report by bdupree@techfinesse.com: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119613299024398&w=2 and the culprit cause seems to be starting the bridge interface. In particular, when starting the bridge interface, his scripts are specifying a hello timer interval of "0". The bridge hello time can't be safely set to values less than 1 second, otherwise it is possible to end up with a runaway timer.

* bridge: Eliminate unnecessary forward delayStephen Hemminger2008-08-051-7/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Based upon original patch by Herbert Xu, which contained the following problem description: -------------------- When the forward delay is set to zero, we still delay the setting of the forwarding state by one or possibly two timers depending on whether STP is enabled. This could either turn out to be instantaneous, or horribly slow depending on the load of the machine. As there is nothing preventing us from enabling forwarding straight away, this patch eliminates this potential delay by executing the code directly if the forward delay is zero. The effect of this problem is that immediately after the carrier comes on a port, the bridge will drop all packets received from that port until it enters forwarding mode, thus causing unnecessary packet loss. Note that this patch doesn't fully remove the delay due to the link watcher. We should also check the carrier state when we are about to drop an incoming packet because the port is disabled. But that's for another patch. -------------------- This version of the fix takes a different approach, in that it just does the state change directly. Signed-off-by: David S.

* bridge: send correct MTU value in PMTU (revised)Simon Wunderlich2008-07-304-30/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When bridging interfaces with different MTUs, the bridge correctly chooses the minimum of the MTUs of the physical devices as the bridges MTU. But when a frame is passed which fits through the incoming, but not through the outgoing interface, a "Fragmentation Needed" packet is generated. However, the propagated MTU is hardcoded to 1500, which is wrong in this situation. The sender will repeat the packet again with the same frame size, and the same problem will occur again. Instead of sending 1500, the (correct) MTU value of the bridge is now sent via PMTU. To achieve this, the corresponding rtable structure is stored in its net_bridge structure. Modified to get rid of fake_net_device as well. Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich <siwu@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de> Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this list.h without creating some circular dependencies. For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference() without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but aren't probably because of this. Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to many changes/troubles.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unregistering a bridge device may cause virtual devices stacked on the bridge, like vlan or macvlan devices, to be unregistered as well. br_cleanup_bridges() uses for_each_netdev_safe() to iterate over all devices during cleanup. This is not enough however, if one of the additionally unregistered devices is next in the list to the bridge device, it will get freed as well and the iteration continues on the freed element. Restart iteration after each bridge device removal from the beginning to fix this, similar to what rtnl_link_unregister() does.
