netprio_cgroup: fix wrong memory access when NETPRIO_CGROUP=m

2012-02-10T20:08:57+00:00

When the netprio_cgroup module is not loaded, net_prio_subsys_id
is -1, and so sock_update_prioidx() accesses cgroup_subsys array
with negative index subsys[-1].

Make the code resembles cls_cgroup code, which is bug free.

net: Make qdisc_skb_cb upper size bound explicit.

2012-02-09T18:50:34+00:00

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: reset flowi parameters on route connect

2012-02-05T00:29:48+00:00

Eric Dumazet found that commit 813b3b5db83
(ipv4: Use caller's on-stack flowi as-is in output
route lookups.) that comes in 3.0 added a regression.
The problem appears to be that resulting flowi4_oif is
used incorrectly as input parameter to some routing lookups.
The result is that when connecting to local port without
listener if the IP address that is used is not on a loopback
interface we incorrectly assign RTN_UNICAST to the output
route because no route is matched by oif=lo. The RST packet
can not be sent immediately by tcp_v4_send_reset because
it expects RTN_LOCAL.

	So, change ip_route_connect and ip_route_newports to
update the flowi4 fields that are input parameters because
we do not want unnecessary binding to oif.

	To make it clear what are the input parameters that
can be modified during lookup and to show which fields of
floiw4 are reused add a new function to update the flowi4
structure: flowi4_update_output.

Thanks to Yurij M. Plotnikov for providing a bug report including a
program to reproduce the problem.

Thanks to Eric Dumazet for tracking the problem down to
tcp_v4_send_reset and providing initial fix.

net: Disambiguate kernel message

2012-02-01T19:41:50+00:00

Some of our machines were reporting:

TCP: too many of orphaned sockets

even when the number of orphaned sockets was well below the
limit.

We print a different message depending on whether we're out
of TCP memory or there are too many orphaned sockets.

Also move the check out of line and cleanup the messages
that were printed.

net/tcp: Fix tcp memory limits initialization when !CONFIG_SYSCTL

2012-01-30T17:41:06+00:00

sysctl_tcp_mem() initialization was moved to sysctl_tcp_ipv4.c
in commit 3dc43e3e4d0b52197d3205214fe8f162f9e0c334, since it
became a per-ns value.

That code, however, will never run when CONFIG_SYSCTL is
disabled, leading to bogus values on those fields - causing hung
TCP sockets.

This patch fixes it by keeping an initialization code in
tcp_init(). It will be overwritten by the first net namespace
init if CONFIG_SYSCTL is compiled in, and do the right thing if
it is compiled out.

It is also named properly as tcp_init_mem(), to properly signal
its non-sysctl side effect on TCP limits.

netns: Fail conspicously if someone uses net_generic at an inappropriate time.

2012-01-28T02:06:02+00:00

By definition net_generic should never be called when it can return
NULL.  Fail conspicously with a BUG_ON to make it clear when people mess
up that a NULL return should never happen.

Recently there was a bug in the CAIF subsystem where it was registered
with register_pernet_device instead of register_pernet_subsys.  It was
erroneously concluded that net_generic could validly return NULL and
that net_assign_generic was buggy (when it was just inefficient).
Hopefully this BUG_ON will prevent people to coming to similar erroneous
conclusions in the futrue.

net: explicitly add jump_label.h header to sock.h

2012-01-26T22:13:26+00:00

Commit 36a1211970193ce215de50ed1e4e1272bc814df1 removed linux/module.h
include statement from one of the headers that end up in net/sock.h.
It was providing us with static_branch() definition implicitly, so
after its removal the build got broken.

To fix this, and avoid having this happening in the future,
let me do the right thing and include linux/jump_label.h
explicitly in sock.h.
