* [XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.David S. Miller2007-05-241-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the -EAGAIN buisness we had before. Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules. We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in libc. With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default. This lays the framework to either: 1) Make this default at some point or... 2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of. The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved in a certain amount of time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET]: cleanup extra semicolonsStephen Hemminger2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Spring cleaning time... There seems to be a lot of places in the network code that have extra bogus semicolons after conditionals. Most commonly is a bogus semicolon after: switch() { } Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_tArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4 64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN... :-) Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network, mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being meaningful as offsets or pointers.

* [SK_BUFF]: More skb_reset_transport_header conversionsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These are a bit more subtle, they are of this type: - skb->h.raw = payload; __skb_pull(skb, payload - skb->data); + skb_reset_transport_header(skb); __skb_pull results in: skb->data = skb->data + payload - skb->data; skb->data = payload; So after __skb_pull we have skb->data pointing to payload and we can just call skb_reset_transport_header(skb), that will do: skb->h.raw = payload; The others are similar, allowing us to get rid of some more cases where a pointer was being attributed to the layer headers.

* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce ipv6_hdr(), remove skb->nh.ipv6hArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Now the skb->nh union has just one member, .raw, i.e. it is just like the skb->mac union, strange, no? I'm just leaving it like that till the transport layer is done with, when we'll rename skb->mac.raw to skb->mac_header (or ->mac_header_offset?), ditto for ->{h,nh}.

* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_network_header()Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-13/+18
| | | | | | | | | For the places where we need a pointer to the network header, it is still legal to touch skb->nh.raw directly if just adding to, subtracting from or setting it to another layer header.

* [SK_BUFF] ipv6: More skb_reset_network_header conversions related to skb_pullArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-251-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now related to this form: skb->nh.ipv6h = (struct ipv6hdr *)skb_put(skb, length); That, as the others, is done when skb->tail is still equal to skb->data, making the conversion to skb_reset_network_header possible. Also one more case equivalent to skb->nh.raw = skb->data, of this form: iph = (struct ipv6hdr *)skb->data; <SNIP> skb->nh.ipv6h = iph; Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau2007-02-141-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

* [IPV4/IPV6]: Replace spin_lock_irq with spin_lock_bhHerbert Xu2005-06-181-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | In light of my recent patch to net/ipv4/udp.c that replaced the spin_lock_irq calls on the receive queue lock with spin_lock_bh, here is a similar patch for all other occurences of spin_lock_irq on receive/error queue locks in IPv4 and IPv6. In these stacks, we know that they can only be entered from user or softirq context. Therefore it's safe to disable BH only.

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+600
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!
