* IPv6: Fix multicast routing bugs.Thomas Goff2009-01-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses the IPv6 multicast routing issues described below. It was tested with XORP 1.4/1.5 as the IPv6 PIM-SM routing daemon against FreeBSD peers. net/ipv6/ip6_input.c: - Don't try to forward link-local multicast packets. - Don't reset skb2->dev before calling ip6_mr_input() so packets can be identified as coming from the PIM register vif properly. net/ipv6/ip6mr.c: - Fix incoming PIM register messages processing: * The IPv6 pseudo-header should be included when checksumming PIM messages (RFC 4601 section 4.9; RFC 3973 section 4.7.1). * Packets decapsulated from PIM register messages should have skb->protocol ETH_P_IPV6. - Enable/disable IPv6 multicast forwarding on the corresponding interface when a routing daemon adds/removes a multicast virtual interface. - Remove incorrect skb_pull() to fix userspace signaling. - Enable/disable global IPv6 multicast forwarding when an IPv6 multicast routing socket is opened/closed. net/ipv6/route.c: - Don't use strict routing logic for packets decapsulated from PIM register messages (similar to disabling rp_filter for the IPv4 case).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In ip6_mc_input(), we need to check whether we have listener(s) for the packet. After commit ae7bf20a6316272acfcaef5d265b18aaa54b41e4, all packets for multicast destinations are delivered to upper layer if IFF_PROMISC or IFF_ALLMULTI is set. In fact, bug was rather ancient; the original (before the commit) intent of the dev->flags check was to skip the ipv6_chk_mcast_addr() call, assuming L2 filters packets appropriately, but it was even not true. Let's explicitly check our multicast list. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Acked-by: David L Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.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).

* [NETFILTER]: Add nf_conntrack subsystem.Yasuyuki Kozakai2005-11-091-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only handle ipv4. There were basically two choices present to add connection tracking support for ipv6. We could either duplicate all of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol (TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written. In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3 protocol. The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6, which is also cured here. For example, these issues include: 1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP messages 2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag" (which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply isn't feasible in ipv6 3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking design 4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack and it is feature complete. Once that occurs, the old conntrack stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will fully kill it off 6 months later.

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!
