ip6_gre: release cached dst on tunnel removal

2015-08-25T21:33:00+00:00

When a tunnel is deleted, the cached dst entry should be released.

This problem may prevent the removal of a netns (seen with a x-netns IPv6
gre tunnel):
  unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3

ip6_gre: use netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats()

2015-04-22T19:39:05+00:00

The code there just open-codes the same, so use the provided macro instead.

udp_tunnel: Pass UDP socket down through udp_tunnel{, 6}_xmit_skb().

2015-04-07T19:29:08+00:00

That was we can make sure the output path of ipv4/ipv6 operate on
the UDP socket rather than whatever random thing happens to be in
skb->sk.

Based upon a patch by Jiri Pirko.

netlink: implement nla_get_in_addr and nla_get_in6_addr

2015-03-31T17:58:35+00:00

Those are counterparts to nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addr.

netlink: implement nla_put_in_addr and nla_put_in6_addr

2015-03-31T17:58:35+00:00

IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions
to do that.

For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is
not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is
used to store IPv4 address.

ipv6: coding style: comparison for inequality with NULL

2015-03-31T17:51:54+00:00

The ipv6 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check for NULL
pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is preferred according to
checkpatch and this patch makes the code consistent by adopting the latter
form.

No changes detected by objdiff.

The ipv6 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check for NULL
pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is preferred according to
checkpatch and this patch makes the code consistent by adopting the latter

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

2015-02-05T22:33:28+00:00

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/vxlan.c
	drivers/vhost/net.c
	include/linux/if_vlan.h
	net/core/dev.c

The net/core/dev.c conflict was the overlap of one commit marking an
existing function static whilst another was adding a new function.

In the include/linux/if_vlan.h case, the type used for a local
variable was changed in 'net', whereas the function got rewritten
to fix a stacked vlan bug in 'net-next'.

In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next'
overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'.

In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter
in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the
correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

ip6_gre: fix endianness errors in ip6gre_err

2015-02-05T08:33:10+00:00

info is in network byte order, change it back to host byte order
before use. In particular, the current code sets the MTU of the tunnel
to a wrong (too big) value.
