The comparison in ip_route_input is a hot path, by recoding the C "and" as bit operations, fewer conditional branches get generated so the code should be faster. Maybe someday Gcc will be smart enough to do this? Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Avoid unneeded test in the case where object to be freed has to be a leaf. Don't need to use the generic tnode_free() function, instead just setup leaf to be freed. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Allow the use of SACK and window scaling when syncookies are used and the client supports tcp timestamps. Options are encoded into the timestamp sent in the syn-ack and restored from the timestamp echo when the ack is received. Based on earlier work by Glenn Griffin. This patch avoids increasing the size of structs by encoding TCP options into the least significant bits of the timestamp and by not using any 'timestamp offset'. The downside is that the timestamp sent in the packet after the synack will increase by several seconds. changes since v1: don't duplicate timestamp echo decoding function, put it into ipv4/syncookie.c and have ipv6/syncookies.c use it. Feedback from Glenn Griffin: fix line indented with spaces, kill redundant if () Reviewed-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

Use vmalloc rather than alloc_pages to avoid wasting memory. The problem is that tnode structure has a power of 2 sized array, plus a header. So the current code wastes almost half the memory allocated because it always needs the next bigger size to hold that small header. This is similar to an earlier patch by Eric, but instead of a list and lock, I used a workqueue to handle the fact that vfree can't be done in interrupt context.

1) Standlaone ip6_null_entry is no longer needed as it is replaced by the ip6_null_entry member of ipv6 (instance of struct netns_ipv6) in struct net (as a result of Network Namespaces patches). 2) These 3 methods from this same header are not defined anywhere: ip6_rt_addr_add(), ip6_rt_addr_del(), rt6_sndmsg() Signed-off-by: Rami Rosen <ramirose@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

SKF_ADF_NLATTR searches for a netlink attribute, which avoids manually parsing and walking attributes. It takes the offset at which to start searching in the 'A' register and the attribute type in the 'X' register and returns the offset in the 'A' register. When the attribute is not found it returns zero. A top-level attribute can be located using a filter like this (example for nfnetlink, using struct nfgenmsg): ... { /* A = offset of first attribute */ .code = BPF_LD | BPF_IMM, .k = sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) + sizeof(struct nfgenmsg) }, { /* X = CTA_PROTOINFO */ .code = BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM, .k = CTA_PROTOINFO, }, { /* A = netlink attribute offset */ .code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS, .k = SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR }, { /* Exit if not found */ .code = BPF_JMP | BPF_JEQ | BPF_K, .k = 0, .jt = <error> }, ... A nested attribute below the CTA_PROTOINFO attribute would then be parsed like this: ... { /* A += sizeof(struct nlattr) */ .code = BPF_ALU | BPF_ADD | BPF_K, .k = sizeof(struct nlattr), }, { /* X = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP */ .code = BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM, .k = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP, }, { /* A = netlink attribute offset */ .code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS, .k = SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR }, ... The data of an attribute can be loaded into 'A' like this: ... { /* X = A (attribute offset) */ .code = BPF_MISC | BPF_TAX, }, { /* A = skb->data[X + k] */ .code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_IND, .k = sizeof(struct nlattr), }, ...

Up to now, key manipulation is supposed to run under RTNL to avoid concurrent manipulations and also allow the set_key() hardware callback to sleep. This is not feasible because STA structs are rcu-protected and thus a lot of operations there cannot take the RTNL. Also, key references are rcu-protected so we cannot do things atomically. This patch changes key locking completely: * key operations are now atomic * hardware crypto offload is enabled and disabled from a workqueue, due to that key freeing is also delayed * debugfs code is also run from a workqueue * keys reference STAs (and vice versa!) so during STA unlink the STAs key reference is removed but not the keys STA reference, to avoid races key todo work is run before STA destruction. * fewer STA operations now need the RTNL which was required due to key operations This fixes the locking problems lockdep pointed out and also makes things more light-weight because the rtnl isn't required as much. Note that the key todo lock/key mutex are global locks, this is not required, of course, they could be per-hardware instead.

When a STA is supposed to be unlinked but is pinned, it still needs to be unlinked from all structures.

Unfortunately, debugfs can be made to access invalid memory by open()ing a file and then waiting until the corresponding debugfs file has been removed (and, probably, the underlying object.) That could be exploited by any user if the user is able to open debugfs files and can cause networking devices, STA entries or similar to disappear which is quite easy to do. Hence, all debugfs files should be root-only. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

When drivers receive change notification they may do work that will enable the changes to take effect. For example, if new association the device needs to be programmed with this information. Give the driver chance to make the changes before notifying the upper layer - thus preventing race condition where upper layer attempts to utilize state that may not be configured yet.
