ipv4: ipmr: support multiple tables

2010-04-13T21:49:34+00:00

This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances,
named "tables".

Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by
issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT_TABLE. The table number is
stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ipmr setsockopt(),
getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT_TABLE_DEFAULT)
is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pimreg
devices have the table number appended ("pimregX"), with the exception of
devices created in the default table, which are named just "pimreg" for
compatibility reasons.

Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules,
similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark
are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported
additionally.

Example usage:

- bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table:

uint32_t table = 123;
setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, MRT_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table));

- create routing rules directing packets to the new table:

# ip mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123
# ip mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123

We're adding enough nfs documentation that it may as well have its own
subdirectory.

ipv4: update ARPD help text

2009-06-14T06:36:32+00:00

Removed the statements about ARP cache size as this config option does
not affect it. The cache size is controlled by neigh_table gc thresholds.

Remove also expiremental and obsolete markings as the API originally
intended for arp caching is useful for implementing ARP-like protocols
(e.g. NHRP) in user space and has been there for a long enough time.

ipv4: make default for INET_LRO consistent with help text

2009-05-19T04:48:38+00:00

Commit e81963b1 ("ipv4: Make INET_LRO a bool instead of tristate.")
changed this config from tristate to bool.  Add default so that it is
consistent with the help text.

ipv4: Make INET_LRO a bool instead of tristate.

2009-05-08T19:45:26+00:00

This code is used as a library by several device drivers,
which select INET_LRO.

If some are modules and some are statically built into the
kernel, we get build failures if INET_LRO is modular.

Doc: Refer to ip-sysctl.txt for strict vs. loose rp_filter mode

2009-02-24T11:47:42+00:00

The IP_ADVANCED_ROUTER Kconfig describes the rp_filter
proc option.  Recent changes added a loose mode.
Instead of documenting this change too places, refer to
the document describing it:
 Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt

I'm considering moving the rp_filter description away
from the Kconfig file into ip-sysctl.txt.
