net-timestamp: make tcp_recvmsg call ipv6_recv_error for AF_INET6 socks

2014-12-16T17:37:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit f4713a3dfad045d46afcb9c2a7d0bba288920ed4 ]

TCP timestamping introduced MSG_ERRQUEUE handling for TCP sockets.
If the socket is of family AF_INET6, call ipv6_recv_error instead
of ip_recv_error.

This change is more complex than a single branch due to the loadable
ipv6 module. It reuses a pre-existing indirect function call from
ping. The ping code is safe to call, because it is part of the core
ipv6 module and always present when AF_INET6 sockets are active.

It may also be worthwhile to add WARN_ON_ONCE(sk->family == AF_INET6)
to ip_recv_error.

net-gre-gro: Fix a bug that breaks the forwarding path

2014-07-16T21:45:26+00:00

Fixed a bug that was introduced by my GRE-GRO patch
(bf5a755f5e9186406bbf50f4087100af5bd68e40 net-gre-gro: Add GRE
support to the GRO stack) that breaks the forwarding path
because various GSO related fields were not set. The bug will
cause on the egress path either the GSO code to fail, or a
GRE-TSO capable (NETIF_F_GSO_GRE) NICs to choke. The following
fix has been tested for both cases.

gre: Call gso_make_checksum

2014-06-05T05:46:38+00:00

Call gso_make_checksum. This should have the benefit of using a
checksum that may have been previously computed for the packet.

This also adds NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM to differentiate devices that
offload GRE GSO with and without the GRE checksum offloaed.

net: Add GSO support for UDP tunnels with checksum

2014-06-05T05:46:38+00:00

Added a new netif feature for GSO_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM. This indicates
that a device is capable of computing the UDP checksum in the
encapsulating header of a UDP tunnel.

net: Eliminate no_check from protosw

2014-05-23T20:28:53+00:00

It doesn't seem like an protocols are setting anything other
than the default, and allowing to arbitrarily disable checksums
for a whole protocol seems dangerous. This can be done on a per
socket basis.

ipv4: make ip_local_reserved_ports per netns

2014-05-14T19:31:45+00:00

ip_local_port_range is already per netns, so should ip_local_reserved_ports
be. And since it is none by default we don't actually need it when we don't
enable CONFIG_SYSCTL.

By the way, rename inet_is_reserved_local_port() to inet_is_local_reserved_port()

The netlink conflict dealt with moving to netlink_capable() and
netlink_ns_capable() in the 'net' tree vs. supporting 'tc' operations
in non-init namespaces.  These were simple transformations from
netlink_capable to netlink_ns_capable.

The Altera driver conflict was simply code removal overlapping some
void pointer cast cleanups in net-next.

ping: move ping_group_range out of CONFIG_SYSCTL

2014-05-09T02:50:47+00:00

Similarly, when CONFIG_SYSCTL is not set, ping_group_range should still
work, just that no one can change it. Therefore we should move it out of
sysctl_net_ipv4.c. And, it should not share the same seqlock with
ip_local_port_range.

BTW, rename it to ->ping_group_range instead.

net: clean up snmp stats code

2014-05-07T20:06:05+00:00

commit 8f0ea0fe3a036a47767f9c80e (snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%)
reduced snmp array size to 1, so technically it doesn't have to be
an array any more. What's more, after the following commit:

	commit 933393f58fef9963eac61db8093689544e29a600
	Date:   Thu Dec 22 11:58:51 2011 -0600

	    percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants

	    We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of
	    preemption and interrupt state.  That has no material change for x86
	    and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations.  However, arches that
	    do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will
	    now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption.

probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after
almost 3 years, no one complains.

So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init()
and snmp_mib_free() as well.
