* [NETNS]: Lookup in FIB semantic hashes taking into account the namespace.Denis V. Lunev2008-01-312-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The namespace is not available in the fib_sync_down_addr, add it as a parameter. Looking up a device by the pointer to it is OK. Looking up using a result from fib_trie/fib_hash table lookup is also safe. No need to fix that at all. So, just fix lookup by address and insertion to the hash table path. Signed-off-by: Denis V.

* [NETNS]: Add a namespace mark to fib_info.Denis V. Lunev2008-01-311-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | This is required to make fib_info lookups namespace aware. In the other case initial namespace devices are marked as dead in the local routing table during other namespace stop. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [IPV4]: fib_sync_down rework.Denis V. Lunev2008-01-312-53/+55
| | | | | | | | | | fib_sync_down can be called with an address and with a device. In reality it is called either with address OR with a device.

* [NET_SCHED]: Add flow classifierPatrick McHardy2008-01-313-0/+672
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new "flow" classifier, which is meant to extend the SFQ hashing capabilities without hard-coding new hash functions and also allows deterministic mappings of keys to classes, replacing some out of tree iptables patches like IPCLASSIFY (maps IPs to classes), IPMARK (maps IPs to marks, with fw filters to classes), ... Some examples: - Classic SFQ hash: tc filter add ... flow hash \ keys src,dst,proto,proto-src,proto-dst divisor 1024 - Classic SFQ hash, but using information from conntrack to work properly in combination with NAT: tc filter add ... flow hash \ keys nfct-src,nfct-dst,proto,nfct-proto-src,nfct-proto-dst divisor 1024 - Map destination IPs of 192.168.0.0/24 to classids 1-257: tc filter add ... flow map \ key dst addend -192.168.0.0 divisor 256 - alternatively: tc filter add ... flow map \ key dst and 0xff - similar, but reverse ordered: tc filter add ... flow map \ key dst and 0xff xor 0xff Perturbation is currently not supported because we can't reliable kill the timer on destruction.

* [IPV4] route cache: Introduce rt_genid for smooth cache invalidationEric Dumazet2008-01-311-120/+89
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current ip route cache implementation is not suited to large caches. We can consume a lot of CPU when cache must be invalidated, since we currently need to evict all cache entries, and this eviction is sometimes asynchronous. min_delay & max_delay can somewhat control this asynchronism behavior, but whole thing is a kludge, regularly triggering infamous soft lockup messages. When entries are still in use, this also consumes a lot of ram, filling dst_garbage.list. A better scheme is to use a generation identifier on each entry, so that cache invalidation can be performed by changing the table identifier, without having to scan all entries. No more delayed flushing, no more stalling when secret_interval expires. Invalidated entries will then be freed at GC time (controled by ip_rt_gc_timeout or stress), or when an invalidated entry is found in a chain when an insert is done. Thus we keep a normal equilibrium. This patch : - renames rt_hash_rnd to rt_genid (and makes it an atomic_t) - Adds a new rt_genid field to 'struct rtable' (filling a hole on 64bit) - Checks entry->rt_genid at appropriate places :

The ingress qdisc can get packets directly from netif_receive_skb() in case TC actions are enabled or through netfilter otherwise, but since without TC actions there is no policer the only thing it actually does is count packets.

* [VLAN]: set_rx_mode support for unicast address listChris Leech2008-01-313-36/+106
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reuse the existing logic for multicast list synchronization for the unicast address list. The core of dev_mc_sync/unsync are split out as __dev_addr_sync/unsync and moved from dev_mcast.c to dev.c. These are then used to implement dev_unicast_sync/unsync as well. I'm working on cleaning up Intel's FCoE stack, which generates new MAC addresses from the fibre channel device id assigned by the fabric as per the current draft specification in T11. When using such a protocol in a VLAN environment it would be nice to not always be forced into promiscuous mode, assuming the underlying Ethernet driver supports multiple unicast addresses as well.

* [IPV4] fib_trie: rescan if key is lost during dumpStephen Hemminger2008-01-311-17/+32
| | | | | | | | | | Normally during a dump the key of the last dumped entry is used for continuation, but since lock is dropped it might be lost.

* [IPV6]: Update MSS even if MTU is unchanged.Jim Paris2008-01-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is needed because in ndisc.c, we have: static void ndisc_router_discovery(struct sk_buff *skb) { // ... if (ndopts.nd_opts_mtu) { // ... if (rt) rt->u.dst.metrics[RTAX_MTU-1] = mtu; rt6_mtu_change(skb->dev, mtu); // ... } Since the mtu is set directly here, rt6_mtu_change_route thinks that it is unchanged, and so it fails to update the MSS accordingly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are many small but still wrong things with /proc/net/*_tables_* so I decided to do overhaul simultaneously making it more suitable for per-netns /proc/net/*_tables_* implementation. Fix a) xt_get_idx() duplicating now standard seq_list_start/seq_list_next iterators b) tables/matches/targets list was chosen again and again on every ->next c) multiple useless "af >= NPROTO" checks -- we simple don't supply invalid AFs there and registration function should BUG_ON instead. Regardless, the one in ->next() is the most useless -- ->next doesn't run at all if ->start fails. d) Don't use mutex_lock_interruptible() -- it can fail and ->stop is executed even if ->start failed, so unlock without lock is possible. As side effect, streamline code by splitting xt_tgt_ops into xt_target_ops, xt_matches_ops, xt_tables_ops. xt_tables_ops hooks will be changed by per-netns code. Code of xt_matches_ops, xt_target_ops is identical except the list chosen for iterating, but I think consolidating code for two files not worth it given "<< 16" hacks needed for it.

It adds support for kernel-level inversion and grouping source and/or destination IP addresses, allowing to limit on a per-subnet basis. While this would technically obsolete xt_limit, xt_hashlimit is a more expensive due to the hashbucketing. Kernel-level inversion: Previously you had to do user-level inversion: iptables -N foo iptables -A foo -m hashlimit --hashlimit(-upto) 5/s -j RETURN iptables -A foo -j DROP iptables -A INPUT -j foo now it is simpler: iptables -A INPUT -m hashlimit --hashlimit-over 5/s -j DROP Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@computergmbh.de> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
