ipvs: fix matching of fwmark templates during scheduling

2012-03-01T00:31:19+00:00

commit e0aac52e17a3db68fe2ceae281780a70fc69957f upstream.

	Commit f11017ec2d1859c661f4e2b12c4a8d250e1f47cf (2.6.37)
moved the fwmark variable in subcontext that is invalidated before
reaching the ip_vs_ct_in_get call. As vaddr is provided as pointer
in the param structure make sure the fwmark variable is in
same context. As the fwmark templates can not be matched,
more and more template connections are created and the
controlled connections can not go to single real server.

tcp: fix tcp_shifted_skb() adjustment of lost_cnt_hint for FACK

2012-03-01T00:31:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit 0af2a0d0576205dda778d25c6c344fc6508fc81d ]

This commit ensures that lost_cnt_hint is correctly updated in
tcp_shifted_skb() for FACK TCP senders. The lost_cnt_hint adjustment
in tcp_sacktag_one() only applies to non-FACK senders, so FACK senders
need their own adjustment.

This applies the spirit of 1e5289e121372a3494402b1b131b41bfe1cf9b7f -
except now that the sequence range passed into tcp_sacktag_one() is
correct we need only have a special case adjustment for FACK.

tcp: fix range tcp_shifted_skb() passes to tcp_sacktag_one()

2012-03-01T00:31:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit daef52bab1fd26e24e8e9578f8fb33ba1d0cb412 ]

Fix the newly-SACKed range to be the range of newly-shifted bytes.

Previously - since 832d11c5cd076abc0aa1eaf7be96c81d1a59ce41 -
tcp_shifted_skb() incorrectly called tcp_sacktag_one() with the start
and end sequence numbers of the skb it passes in set to the range just
beyond the range that is newly-SACKed.

This commit also removes a special-case adjustment to lost_cnt_hint in
tcp_shifted_skb() since the pre-existing adjustment of lost_cnt_hint
in tcp_sacktag_one() now properly handles this things now that the
correct start sequence number is passed in.

tcp: allow tcp_sacktag_one() to tag ranges not aligned with skbs

2012-03-01T00:31:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit cc9a672ee522d4805495b98680f4a3db5d0a0af9 ]

This commit allows callers of tcp_sacktag_one() to pass in sequence
ranges that do not align with skb boundaries, as tcp_shifted_skb()
needs to do in an upcoming fix in this patch series.

In fact, now tcp_sacktag_one() does not need to depend on an input skb
at all, which makes its semantics and dependencies more clear.

gro: more generic L2 header check

2012-03-01T00:31:04+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5ca3b72c5da47d95b83857b768def6172fbc080a ]

Shlomo Pongratz reported GRO L2 header check was suited for Ethernet
only, and failed on IB/ipoib traffic.

He provided a patch faking a zeroed header to let GRO aggregates frames.

Roland Dreier, Herbert Xu, and others suggested we change GRO L2 header
check to be more generic, ie not assuming L2 header is 14 bytes, but
taking into account hard_header_len.

__napi_gro_receive() has special handling for the common case (Ethernet)
to avoid a memcmp() call and use an inline optimized function instead.

net: Make qdisc_skb_cb upper size bound explicit.

2012-03-01T00:31:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit 16bda13d90c8d5da243e2cfa1677e62ecce26860 ]

Just like skb->cb[], so that qdisc_skb_cb can be encapsulated inside
of other data structures.

This is intended to be used by IPoIB so that it can remember
addressing information stored at hard_header_ops->create() time that
it can fetch when the packet gets to the transmit routine.

ipv4: Fix wrong order of ip_rt_get_source() and update iph->daddr.

2012-03-01T00:31:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5dc7883f2a7c25f8df40d7479687153558cd531b ]

This patch fix a bug which introduced by commit ac8a4810 (ipv4: Save
nexthop address of LSRR/SSRR option to IPCB.).In that patch, we saved
the nexthop of SRR in ip_option->nexthop and update iph->daddr until
we get to ip_forward_options(), but we need to update it before
ip_rt_get_source(), otherwise we may get a wrong src.

tcp_v4_send_reset: binding oif to iif in no sock case

2012-03-01T00:31:01+00:00

[ Upstream commit e2446eaab5585555a38ea0df4e01ff313dbb4ac9 ]

Binding RST packet outgoing interface to incoming interface
for tcp v4 when there is no socket associate with it.
when sk is not NULL, using sk->sk_bound_dev_if instead.
(suggested by Eric Dumazet).

This has few benefits:
1. tcp_v6_send_reset already did that.
2. This helps tcp connect with SO_BINDTODEVICE set. When
connection is lost, we still able to sending out RST using
same interface.
3. we are sending reply, it is most likely to be succeed
if iif is used

Not now, but it looks you are correct. q->qdisc is NULL until another
additional qdisc is attached (beside tfifo). See 50612537e9ab2969312.
