2008-01-28[IPV4]: Cleanup the sysctl_net_ipv4.c filePavel Emelyanov1-1/+2
This includes several cleanups: * tune Makefile to compile out this file when SYSCTL=n. Now it looks like net/core/sysctl_net_core.c one; * move the ipv4_config to af_inet.c to exist all the time; * remove additional sysctl_ip_nonlocal_bind declaration (it is already declared in net/ip.h); * remove no nonger needed ifdefs from this file. This is a preparation for using ctl paths for net/ipv4/ sysctl table. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-15[INET]: Collect frag queues management objects togetherPavel Emelyanov1-1/+2
There are some objects that are common in all the places which are used to keep track of frag queues, they are: * hash table * LRU list * rw lock * rnd number for hash function * the number of queues * the amount of memory occupied by queues * secret timer Move all this stuff into one structure (struct inet_frags) to make it possible use them uniformly in the future. Like with the previous patch this mostly consists of hunks like - write_lock(&ipfrag_lock); + write_lock(&ip4_frags.lock); To address the issue with exporting the number of queues and the amount of memory occupied by queues outside the .c file they are declared in, I introduce a couple of helpers.

2007-10-10[NET]: Generic Large Receive Offload for TCP trafficJan-Bernd Themann1-0/+1
This patch provides generic Large Receive Offload (LRO) functionality for IPv4/TCP traffic. LRO combines received tcp packets to a single larger tcp packet and passes them then to the network stack in order to increase performance (throughput). The interface supports two modes: Drivers can either pass SKBs or fragment lists to the LRO engine. Signed-off-by: Jan-Bernd Themann <themann@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-04-25[TCP]: TCP Illinois congestion control (rev3)Stephen Hemminger1-0/+1
This is an implementation of TCP Illinois invented by Shao Liu at University of Illinois. It is a another variant of Reno which adapts the alpha and beta parameters based on RTT. The basic idea is to increase window less rapidly as delay approaches the maximum. See the papers and talks to get a more complete description.

2006-09-22[NetLabel]: CIPSOv4 enginePaul Moore1-0/+1
Add support for the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) to the IPv4 network stack. CIPSO has become a de-facto standard for trusted/labeled networking amongst existing Trusted Operating Systems such as Trusted Solaris, HP-UX CMW, etc. This implementation is designed to be used with the NetLabel subsystem to provide explicit packet labeling to LSM developers. The CIPSO/IPv4 packet labeling works by the LSM calling a NetLabel API function which attaches a CIPSO label (IPv4 option) to a given socket; this in turn attaches the CIPSO label to every packet leaving the socket without any extra processing on the outbound side. On the inbound side the individual packet's sk_buff is examined through a call to a NetLabel API function to determine if a CIPSO/IPv4 label is present and if so the security attributes of the CIPSO label are returned to the caller of the NetLabel API function.

2006-06-17[TCP]: TCP Veno congestion controlBin Zhou1-0/+1
TCP Veno module is a new congestion control module to improve TCP performance over wireless networks. The key innovation in TCP Veno is the enhancement of TCP Reno/Sack congestion control algorithm by using the estimated state of a connection based on TCP Vegas. This scheme significantly reduces "blind" reduction of TCP window regardless of the cause of packet loss. This work is based on the research paper "TCP Veno: TCP Enhancement for Transmission over Wireless Access Networks." C. P. Fu, S. C. Liew, IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication, Feb. 2003.

2006-06-17[TCP]: TCP Low Priority congestion controlWong Hoi Sing Edison1-0/+1
TCP Low Priority is a distributed algorithm whose goal is to utilize only the excess network bandwidth as compared to the ``fair share`` of bandwidth as targeted by TCP. Available from: http://www.ece.rice.edu/~akuzma/Doc/akuzma/TCP-LP.pdf Original Author: Aleksandar Kuzmanovic <akuzma@northwestern.edu> See http://www-ece.rice.edu/networks/TCP-LP/ for their implementation. As of 2.6.13, Linux supports pluggable congestion control algorithms. Due to the limitation of the API, we take the following changes from the original TCP-LP implementation: o We use newReno in most core CA handling. Only add some checking within cong_avoid. o Error correcting in remote HZ, therefore remote HZ will be keeped on checking and updating. o Handling calculation of One-Way-Delay (OWD) within rtt_sample, sicne OWD have a similar meaning as RTT. Also correct the buggy formular. o Handle reaction for Early Congestion Indication (ECI) within pkts_acked, as mentioned within pseudo code. o OWD is handled in relative format, where local time stamp will in tcp_time_stamp format.

2006-06-17[IPSEC] xfrm: Abstract out encapsulation modesHerbert Xu1-0/+2
This patch adds the structure xfrm_mode. It is meant to represent the operations carried out by transport/tunnel modes. By doing this we allow additional encapsulation modes to be added without clogging up the xfrm_input/xfrm_output paths. Candidate modes include 4-to-6 tunnel mode, 6-to-4 tunnel mode, and BEET modes.

2006-03-28[INET]: Introduce tunnel4/tunnel6Herbert Xu1-1/+2
Basically this patch moves the generic tunnel protocol stuff out of xfrm4_tunnel/xfrm6_tunnel and moves it into the new files of tunnel4.c and tunnel6 respectively. The reason for this is that the problem that Hugo uncovered is only the tip of the iceberg. The real problem is that when we removed the dependency of ipip on xfrm4_tunnel we didn't really consider the module case at all. For instance, as it is it's possible to build both ipip and xfrm4_tunnel as modules and if the latter is loaded then ipip simply won't load. After considering the alternatives I've decided that the best way out of this is to restore the dependency of ipip on the non-xfrm-specific part of xfrm4_tunnel. This is acceptable IMHO because the intention of the removal was really to be able to use ipip without the xfrm subsystem. This is still preserved by this patch. So now both ipip/xfrm4_tunnel depend on the new tunnel4.c which handles the arbitration between the two. The order of processing is determined by a simple integer which ensures that ipip gets processed before xfrm4_tunnel. The situation for ICMP handling is a little bit more complicated since we may not have enough information to determine who it's for. It's not a big deal at the moment since the xfrm ICMP handlers are basically no-ops. In future we can deal with this when we look at ICMP caching in general. The user-visible change to this is the removal of the TUNNEL Kconfig prompts. This makes sense because it can only be used through IPCOMP as it stands. The addition of the new modules shouldn't introduce any problems since module dependency will cause them to be loaded. Oh and I also turned some unnecessary pskb's in IPv6 related to this patch to skb's. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-08-29[INET_DIAG]: Move the tcp_diag interface to the proper placeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo1-1/+2
With this the previous setup is back, i.e. tcp_diag can be built as a module, as dccp_diag and both share the infrastructure available in inet_diag. If one selects CONFIG_INET_DIAG as module CONFIG_INET_TCP_DIAG will also be built as a module, as will CONFIG_INET_DCCP_DIAG, if CONFIG_IP_DCCP was selected static or as a module, if CONFIG_INET_DIAG is y, being statically linked CONFIG_INET_TCP_DIAG will follow suit and CONFIG_INET_DCCP_DIAG will be built in the same manner as CONFIG_IP_DCCP. Now to aim at UDP, converting it to use inet_hashinfo, so that we can use iproute2 for UDP sockets as well.

2005-06-23[TCP]: Add H-TCP congestion control module.Baruch Even1-0/+1
H-TCP is a congestion control algorithm developed at the Hamilton Institute, by Douglas Leith and Robert Shorten. It is extending the standard Reno algorithm with mode switching is thus a relatively simple modification. H-TCP is defined in a layered manner as it is still a research platform. The basic form includes the modification of beta according to the ratio of maxRTT to min RTT and the alpha=2*factor*(1-beta) relation, where factor is dependant on the time since last congestion. The other layers improve convergence by adding appropriate factors to alpha. The following patch implements the H-TCP algorithm in it's basic form.
