Tihomir Heidelberg - 9a4gl, reports: -------------------- I would like to direct you attention to one problem existing in ax.25 kernel since 2.4. If listening socket is closed and its SKB queue is released but those sockets get weird. Those "unAccepted()" sockets should be destroyed in ax25_std_heartbeat_expiry, but it will not happen. And there is also a note about that in ax25_std_timer.c: /* Magic here: If we listen() and a new link dies before it is accepted() it isn't 'dead' so doesn't get removed. */ This issue cause ax25d to stop accepting new connections and I had to restarted ax25d approximately each day and my services were unavailable. Also netstat -n -l shows invalid source and device for those listening sockets. It is strange why ax25d's listening socket get weird because of this issue, but definitely when I solved this bug I do not have problems with ax25d anymore and my ax25d can run for months without problems. -------------------- Actually as far as I can see, this problem is even in releases as far back as 2.2.x as well. It seems senseless to special case this test on TCP_LISTEN state. Anything still stuck in state 0 has no external references and we can just simply kill it off directly. Signed-off-by: David S.

The comments of dev_set_allmulti/promiscuity() is that "While the count in the device remains above zero...". So negative count is useless. Fix the type of the counter from "int" to "unsigned int".

In commits 33c732c3 ([IPV4]: Add raw drops counter) and a92aa318 ([IPV6]: Add raw drops counter), Wang Chen added raw drops counter for /proc/net/raw & /proc/net/raw6 This patch adds this capability to UDP sockets too (/proc/net/udp & /proc/net/udp6). This means that 'RcvbufErrors' errors found in /proc/net/snmp can be also be examined for each udp socket. # grep Udp: /proc/net/snmp Udp: InDatagrams NoPorts InErrors OutDatagrams RcvbufErrors SndbufErrors Udp: 23971006 75 899420 16390693 146348 0 # cat /proc/net/udp sl local_address rem_address st tx_queue rx_queue tr tm->when retrnsmt --- uid timeout inode ref pointer drops 75: 00000000:02CB 00000000:0000 07 00000000:00000000 00:00000000 00000000 --- 0 0 2358 2 ffff81082a538c80 0 111: 00000000:006F 00000000:0000 07 00000000:00000000 00:00000000 00000000 --- 0 0 2286 2 ffff81042dd35c80 146348 In this example, only port 111 (0x006F) was flooded by messages that user program could not read fast enough. 146348 messages were lost.

Permit bonding to function rationally if max_bonds is set to zero. This will load the module, but create no master devices (which can be created via sysfs). Requires some change to bond_create_sysfs; currently, the netdev sysfs directory is determined from the first bonding device created, but this is no longer possible. Instead, an interface from net/core is created to create and destroy files in net_class. Based on a patch submitted by Phil Oester <kernel@linuxaces.com>. Modified by Jay Vosburgh to fix the sysfs issue mentioned above and to update the documentation.

Support for sending multiple gratuitous ARPs during failovers was added by commit: commit 7893b249 Author: Moni Shoua <monis@voltaire.com> Date: Sat May 17 21:10:12 2008 -0700 bonding: Send more than one gratuitous ARP when slave takes over This change modifies that support to remove duplicated code, add support for ARP monitor (the original only supported miimon), clear the grat ARP counter in bond_close (lest a later "ifconfig up" immediately start spewing ARPs), and add documentation for the module parameter. Also updated driver version to 3.3.0. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

under active-backup mode and when there's actual new_active slave, have bond_change_active_slave() call the networking core to deliver NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER event such that the fail-over can be notable by code outside of the bonding driver such as the RDMA stack and monitoring tools. As the correct context of locking appropriate for notifier calls is RTNL and nothing else, bond->curr_slave_lock and bond->lock are unlocked and later locked again. This is ensured by the rest of the code to be safe under backup-mode AND when new_active is not NULL. Jay Vosburgh modified the original patch for formatting and fixed a compiler error.

simplified the code of bond_change_active_slave() such that under active-backup mode there's one "if (new_active)" test and the rest of the code only does extra checks on top of it. This removed an unneeded "if (bond->send_grat_arp > 0)" check and avoid calling bond_send_gratuitous_arp when there's no active slave. Jay Vosburgh made minor coding style changes to the orignal patch.

Add NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER event to be used in a successive patch by bonding to announce fail-over for the active-backup mode through the netdev events notifier chain mechanism. Such an event can be of use for the RDMA CM (communication manager) to let native RDMA ULPs (eg NFS-RDMA, iSER) always be aligned with the IP stack, in the sense that they use the same ports/links as the stack does. More usages can be done to allow monitoring tools based on netlink events being aware to bonding fail-over.

The arch/ppc sub-tree has been removed in the powerpc git tree. The old ibm_emac driver is no longer used by anything as a result of this.

ROSE network is organized through nodes connected via hamradio or Internet. AX25 packet radio frames sent to a remote ROSE address destination are routed through these nodes. Without the present patch, automatic routing mechanism did not work optimally due to an improper parameter checking. rose_get_neigh() function is called either by rose_connect() or by rose_route_frame(). In the case of a call from rose_connect(), f0 timer is checked to find if a connection is already pending. In that case it returns the address of the neighbour, or returns a NULL otherwise. When called by rose_route_frame() the purpose was to route a packet AX25 frame through an adjacent node given a destination rose address. However, in that case, t0 timer checked does not indicate if the adjacent node is actually connected even if the timer is not null. Thus, for each frame sent, the function often tried to start a new connexion even if the adjacent node was already connected. The patch adds a "new" parameter that is true when the function is called by rose route_frame(). This instructs rose_get_neigh() to check node parameter "restarted". If restarted is true it means that the route to the destination address is opened via a neighbour node already connected. If "restarted" is false the function returns a NULL. In that case the calling function will initiate a new connection as before. This results in a fast routing of frames, from nodes to nodes, until destination is reached, as originaly specified by ROSE protocole.

In nr_release(), one code path calls sock_orphan() which will NULL out sk->sk_socket already. In the other case, handling states other than NR_STATE_{0,1,2,3}, seems to not be possible other than due to bugs. Even for an uninitialized nr->state value, that would be zero or NR_STATE_0. It might be wise to stick a WARN_ON() here. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The way that listening sockets work in ax25 is that the packet input code path creates new socks via ax25_make_new() and attaches them to the incoming SKB. This SKB gets queued up into the listening socket's receive queue. When accept()'d the sock gets hooked up to the real parent socket. Alternatively, if the listening socket is closed and released, any unborn socks stuff up in the receive queue get released. So during this time period these sockets are unreachable in any other way, so no wakeup events nor references to their ->sk_socket and ->sk_sleep members can occur. And even if they do, all such paths have to make NULL checks. So do not deceptively initialize them in ax25_make_new() to the values in the listening socket. Leave them at NULL. Finally, use sock_graft() in ax25_accept(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
