linux-stable.git/net/ipv6/datagram.c, branch linux-3.9.y

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2013-02-05T19:12:20+00:00

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/ethtool.c
	drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c
	drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/dvm/tx.c
	net/ipv6/route.c

The ipv6 route.c conflict is simple, just ignore the 'net' side change
as we fixed the same problem in 'net-next' by eliminating cached
neighbours from ipv6 routes.

The e1000e conflict is an addition of a new statistic in the ethtool
code, trivial.

The vmxnet3 conflict is about one change in 'net' removing a guarding
conditional, whilst in 'net-next' we had a netdev_info() conversion.

The iwlwifi conflict is dealing with a WARN_ON() conversion in
'net-next' vs. a revert happening in 'net'.

ipv6: export ip6_datagram_recv_ctl

2013-01-31T18:53:08+00:00

ip6_datagram_recv_ctl and ip6_datagram_send_ctl are used for handling IPv6
ancillary data.  Since ip6_datagram_send_ctl is already publicly exported for
use in modules, ip6_datagram_recv_ctl should also be available to support
ancillary data in the receive path.

ipv6: rename datagram_send_ctl and datagram_recv_ctl

2013-01-31T18:53:08+00:00

The datagram_*_ctl functions in net/ipv6/datagram.c are IPv6-specific.  Since
datagram_send_ctl is publicly exported it should be appropriately named to
reflect the fact that it's for IPv6 only.

ipv6: Use ipv6_get_dsfield() instead of ipv6_tclass().

2013-01-14T01:17:14+00:00

Commit 7a3198a8 ("ipv6: helper function to get tclass") introduced
ipv6_tclass(), but similar function is already available as
ipv6_get_dsfield().

We might be able to call ipv6_tclass() from ipv6_get_dsfield(),
but it is confusing to have two versions.

ipv6: Use container_of macro instead of magic number to get ipv6 header.

2013-01-10T07:59:53+00:00

In ipv6_recv_error(), addr_offset points to daddr field of the ip header.
To get ipv6 header, use container_of() macro instead of substracting magic
number (24).

net: Allow userns root to control ipv6

2012-11-19T01:32:45+00:00

Allow an unpriviled user who has created a user namespace, and then
created a network namespace to effectively use the new network
namespace, by reducing capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) and
capable(CAP_NET_RAW) calls to be ns_capable(net->user_ns,
CAP_NET_ADMIN), or capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW) calls.

Settings that merely control a single network device are allowed.
Either the network device is a logical network device where
restrictions make no difference or the network device is hardware NIC
that has been explicity moved from the initial network namespace.

In general policy and network stack state changes are allowed while
resource control is left unchanged.

Allow the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl to add ipv6 addresses.
Allow the SIOCDIFADDR ioctl to delete ipv6 addresses.
Allow the SIOCADDRT ioctl to add ipv6 routes.
Allow the SIOCDELRT ioctl to delete ipv6 routes.

Allow creation of ipv6 raw sockets.

Allow setting the IPV6_JOIN_ANYCAST socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_FL_A_RENEW parameter of the IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR
socket option.

Allow setting the IPV6_TRANSPARENT socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_HOPOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_RTHDRDSTOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_DSTOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_IPSEC_POLICY socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_XFRM_POLICY socket option.

Allow sending packets with the IPV6_2292HOPOPTS control message.
Allow sending packets with the IPV6_2292DSTOPTS control message.
Allow sending packets with the IPV6_RTHDRDSTOPTS control message.

Allow setting the multicast routing socket options on non multicast
routing sockets.

Allow the SIOCADDTUNNEL, SIOCCHGTUNNEL, and SIOCDELTUNNEL ioctls for
setting up, changing and deleting tunnels over ipv6.

Allow the SIOCADDTUNNEL, SIOCCHGTUNNEL, SIOCDELTUNNEL ioctls for
setting up, changing and deleting ipv6 over ipv4 tunnels.

Allow the SIOCADDPRL, SIOCDELPRL, SIOCCHGPRL ioctls for adding,
deleting, and changing the potential router list for ISATAP tunnels.

ipv6: Export ipv6 functions for use by other protocols

2012-05-01T13:30:55+00:00

For implementing other protocols on top of IPv6, such as L2TPv3's IP
encapsulation over ipv6, we'd like to call some IPv6 functions which
are not currently exported. This patch exports them.
