2007-06-03[NET]: Fix comparisons of unsigned < 0.Bill Nottingham1-1/+1

2007-05-24[XFRM]: Allow packet drops during larval state resolution.David S. Miller1-3/+7
The current IPSEC rule resolution behavior we have does not work for a lot of people, even though technically it's an improvement from the -EAGAIN buisness we had before. Right now we'll block until the key manager resolves the route. That works for simple cases, but many folks would rather packets get silently dropped until the key manager resolves the IPSEC rules. We can't tell these folks to "set the socket non-blocking" because they don't have control over the non-block setting of things like the sockets used to resolve DNS deep inside of the resolver libraries in libc. With that in mind I coded up the patch below with some help from Herbert Xu which provides packet-drop behavior during larval state resolution, controllable via sysctl and off by default. This lays the framework to either: 1) Make this default at some point or... 2) Move this logic into xfrm{4,6}_policy.c and implement the ARP-like resolution queue we've all been dreaming of. The idea would be to queue packets to the policy, then once the larval state is resolved by the key manager we re-resolve the route and push the packets out. The packets would timeout if the rule didn't get resolved in a certain amount of time. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-04-25[DCCP]: Fix bug in the calculation of very low sending ratesGerrit Renker1-2/+2
This fixes an error in the calculation of t_ipi when X converges towards very low sending rates (between 1 and 64 bytes per second). Although this case may not sound likely, it can be reproduced by connecting, hitting enter (1 byte sent) and waiting for some time, during which the nofeedback timer halves the sending rate until finally it reaches the region 1..64 bytes/sec. Computing X is handled correctly (tested separately); but by dividing X _before_ entering the calculation of t_ipi, X becomes zero as a result. This in turn triggers a BUG condition caught in scaled_div(). Fixed by replacing with equivalent statement and explicit typecast for good measure. Calculation verified and effect of patch tested - reduced never below 1 byte per 64 seconds afterwards, i.e. not allowing divide-by-zero.

2007-04-25[DCCP]: Remove ambiguity in the way before48 is usedGerrit Renker1-2/+4
This removes two ambiguities in employing the new definition of before48, following the analysis on http://www.mail-archive.com/dccp@vger.kernel.org/msg01295.html (1) Updating GSR when P.seqno >= S.SWL With the old definition we did not update when P.seqno and S.SWL are 2^47 apart. To ensure the same behaviour as with the old definition, this is replaced with the equivalent condition dccp_delta_seqno(S.SWL, P.seqno) >= 0 (2) Sending SYNC when P.seqno >= S.OSR Here it is debatable whether the new definition causes an ambiguity: the case is similar to (1); and to have consistency with the case (1), we use the equivalent condition dccp_delta_seqno(S.OSR, P.seqno) >= 0 Detailed Justification

This patch initialises the write_xmit_timer in sync with the other timers, i.e. the timer will be ready on any socket. This is used by applications with a listening socket which start to stream after receiving an initiation by the client. The write_xmit_timer is stopped when the application closes, as before.

The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name. Which is pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented. I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register duplicate sysctl entries.

2007-02-08[NET]: change layout of ehash tableEric Dumazet1-2/+2
ehash table layout is currently this one : First half of this table is used by sockets not in TIME_WAIT state Second half of it is used by sockets in TIME_WAIT state. This is non optimal because of for a given hash or socket, the two chain heads are located in separate cache lines. Moreover the locks of the second half are never used. If instead of this halving, we use two list heads in inet_ehash_bucket instead of only one, we probably can avoid one cache miss, and reduce ram usage, particularly if sizeof(rwlock_t) is big (various CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK, CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC settings). So we still halves the table but we keep together related chains to speedup lookups and socket state change. In this patch I did not try to align struct inet_ehash_bucket, but a future patch could try to make this structure have a convenient size (a power of two or a multiple of L1_CACHE_SIZE). I guess rwlock will just vanish as soon as RCU is plugged into ehash :) , so maybe we dont need to scratch our heads to align the bucket... Note : In case struct inet_ehash_bucket is not a power of two, we could probably change alloc_large_system_hash() (in case it use __get_free_pages()) to free the unused space. It currently allocates a big zone, but the last quarter of it could be freed. Again, this should be a temporary 'problem'. Patch tested on ipv4 tcp only, but should be OK for IPV6 and DCCP.

2007-01-26[TCP]: Restore SKB socket owner setting in tcp_transmit_skb().David S. Miller1-2/+2
Revert 931731123a103cfb3f70ac4b7abfc71d94ba1f03 We can't elide the skb_set_owner_w() here because things like certain netfilter targets (such as owner MATCH) need a socket to be set on the SKB for correct operation. Thanks to Jan Engelhardt and other netfilter list members for pointing this out. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-12-13[DCCP] ccid3: return value in ccid3_hc_rx_calc_first_liIan McDonald1-3/+3
In a recent patch we introduced invalid return codes which will result in the opposite of what is intended (i.e. send more packets in face of peculiar network conditions). This fixes it by returning ~0 which means not calculated as per dccp_li_hist_calc_i_mean.
