ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.

2012-07-23T23:36:26+00:00

Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of
cached RX dst in inet sock.

rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can
legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively.

When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will
be set to zero.

This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4
specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for
ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6
input paths yet.

Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have
obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check
callback.

net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()

2012-07-17T10:29:28+00:00

This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.

Even though we have a route in this context, we need more.  In the
future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
etc. keying.  One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.

In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
for redirects and PMTU information.  This persistent storage will exist
in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
full lookup flow key here.  Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
and create/update the persistent entry.

ipv6: Add helper inet6_csk_update_pmtu().

2012-07-16T10:44:56+00:00

This is the ipv6 version of inet_csk_update_pmtu().

ipv4: Add helper inet_csk_update_pmtu().

2012-07-16T10:28:06+00:00

This abstracts away the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can
transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can
be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached
in sockets).

So we try to rebuild the socket cached route after the method
invocation if necessary.

This isn't used by SCTP because it needs to cache dsts per-transport,
and thus will need it's own local version of this helper.

dccp: remove unnecessary codes in ipv6.c

2012-07-05T10:11:15+00:00

opt always equals np->opts, so it is meaningless to define opt, and
check if opt does not equal np->opts and then try to free opt.
