genetlink: Build a generic netlink family module alias

2012-05-30T02:33:56+00:00

Generic netlink searches for -type- formatted aliases when requesting a module to
fulfill a protocol request (i.e. net-pf-16-proto-16-type-, where x is a type
value).  However generic netlink protocols have no well defined type numbers,
they have string names.  Modify genl_ctrl_getfamily to request an alias in the
format net-pf-16-proto-16-family- instead, where x is a generic string, and
add a macro that builds on the previously added MODULE_ALIAS_NET_PF_PROTO_NAME
macro to allow modules to specifify those generic strings.

Note, l2tp previously hacked together an net-pf-16-proto-16-type-l2tp alias
using the MODULE_ALIAS macro, with these updates we can convert that to use the
PROTO_NAME macro.

l2tp: fix oops in L2TP IP sockets for connect() AF_UNSPEC case

2012-05-29T21:19:44+00:00

An application may call connect() to disconnect a socket using an
address with family AF_UNSPEC. The L2TP IP sockets were not handling
this case when the socket is not bound and an attempt to connect()
using AF_UNSPEC in such cases would result in an oops. This patch
addresses the problem by protecting the sk_prot->disconnect() call
against trying to unhash the socket before it is bound.

The L2TP IPv4 and IPv6 sockets have the same problem. Both are fixed
by this patch.

The patch also adds more checks that the sockaddr supplied to bind()
and connect() calls is valid.

net: l2tp: Standardize logging styles

2012-05-17T08:34:38+00:00

Use more current logging styles.

Add pr_fmt to prefix output appropriately.
Convert printks to pr_.
Convert PRINTK macros to new l2tp_ macros.
Neaten some _refcount debugging macros.
Use print_hex_dump_bytes instead of hand-coded loops.
Coalesce formats and align arguments.

Some KERN_DEBUG output is not now emitted unless
dynamic_debugging is enabled.

l2tp: fix data packet sequence number handling

2012-05-11T03:27:34+00:00

If enabled, L2TP data packets have sequence numbers which a receiver
can use to drop out of sequence frames or try to reorder them. The
first frame has sequence number 0, but the L2TP code currently expects
it to be 1. This results in the first data frame being handled as out
of sequence.

This one-line patch fixes the problem.

l2tp: fix reorder timeout recovery

2012-05-11T03:27:34+00:00

When L2TP data packet reordering is enabled, packets are held in a
queue while waiting for out-of-sequence packets. If a packet gets
lost, packets will be held until the reorder timeout expires, when we
are supposed to then advance to the sequence number of the next packet
but we don't currently do so. As a result, the data channel is stuck
because we are waiting for a packet that will never arrive - all
packets age out and none are passed.

The fix is to add a flag to the session context, which is set when the
reorder timeout expires and tells the receive code to reset the next
expected sequence number to that of the next packet in the queue.

Tested in a production L2TP network with Starent and Nortel L2TP gear.

Resolved the iwlwifi conflict with mainline using 3-way diff posted
by John Linville and Stephen Rothwell.  In 'net' we added a bug
fix to make iwlwifi report a more accurate skb->truesize but this
conflicted with RX path changes that happened meanwhile in net-next.

In e1000e a conflict arose in the validation code for settings of
adapter->itr.  'net-next' had more sophisticated logic so that
logic was used.

net: l2tp: unlock socket lock before returning from l2tp_ip_sendmsg

l2tp: let iproute2 create L2TPv3 IP tunnels using IPv6

2012-05-01T13:30:55+00:00

The netlink API lets users create unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels using
iproute2. Until now, a request to create an unmanaged L2TPv3 IP
encapsulation tunnel over IPv6 would be rejected with
EPROTONOSUPPORT. Now that l2tp_ip6 implements sockets for L2TP IP
encapsulation over IPv6, we can add support for that tunnel type.

l2tp: introduce L2TPv3 IP encapsulation support for IPv6

2012-05-01T13:30:55+00:00

L2TPv3 defines an IP encapsulation packet format where data is carried
directly over IP (no UDP). The kernel already has support for L2TP IP
encapsulation over IPv4 (l2tp_ip). This patch introduces support for
L2TP IP encapsulation over IPv6.

The implementation is derived from ipv6/raw and ipv4/l2tp_ip.
