* [NETLINK]: Switch cb_lock spinlock to mutex and allow to override itPatrick McHardy2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Switch cb_lock to mutex and allow netlink kernel users to override it with a subsystem specific mutex for consistent locking in dump callbacks. All netlink_dump_start users have been audited not to rely on any side-effects of the previously used spinlock. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NETFILTER]: {eb,ip6,ip}t_LOG: remove remains of LOG target overloadingPatrick McHardy2007-04-251-8/+4

* [NET]: Treat CHECKSUM_PARTIAL as CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARYHerbert Xu2007-04-253-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | When a transmitted packet is looped back directly, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL maps to the semantics of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Therefore we should treat it as such in the stack. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET]: Use csum_start offset instead of skb_transport_headerHerbert Xu2007-04-251-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The skb transport pointer is currently used to specify the start of the checksum region for transmit checksum offload. Unfortunately, the same pointer is also used during receive side processing. This creates a problem when we want to retransmit a received packet with partial checksums since the skb transport pointer would be overwritten. This patch solves this problem by creating a new 16-bit csum_start offset value to replace the skb transport header for the purpose of checksums. This offset is calculated from skb->head so that it does not have to change when skb->data changes. No extra space is required since csum_offset itself fits within a 16-bit word so we can use the other 16 bits for csum_start. For backwards compatibility, just before we push a packet with partial checksums off into the device driver, we set the skb transport header to what it would have been under the old scheme.

* [XFRM]: Optimize MTU calculationPatrick McHardy2007-04-251-10/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | Replace the probing based MTU estimation, which usually takes 2-3 iterations to find a fitting value and may underestimate the MTU, by an exact calculation. Also fix underestimation of the XFRM trailer_len, which causes unnecessary reallocations. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NET]: Allow forwarding of ip_summed except CHECKSUM_COMPLETEHerbert Xu2007-04-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now Xen has a horrible hack that lets it forward packets with partial checksums. One of the reasons that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE were added is so that we can get rid of this hack (where it creates two extra bits in the skbuff to essentially mirror ip_summed without being destroyed by the forwarding code). I had forgotten that I've already gone through all the deivce drivers last time around to make sure that they're looking at ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL rather than ip_summed != 0 on transmit. In any case, I've now done that again so it should definitely be safe. Unfortunately nobody has yet added any code to update CHECKSUM_COMPLETE values on forward so we I'm setting that to CHECKSUM_NONE. This should be safe to remove for bridging but I'd like to check that code path first. So here is the patch that lets us get rid of the hack by preserving ip_summed (mostly) on forwarded packets.
