2012-09-27l2tp: fix return value checkWei Yongjun1-6/+6
In case of error, the function genlmsg_put() returns NULL pointer not ERR_PTR(). The IS_ERR() test in the return value check should be replaced with NULL test. dpatch engine is used to auto generate this patch.

2012-09-10netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusionEric W. Biederman1-12/+12
It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid. I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to userspace to avoid changing the userspace API. I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2012-06-28net: Use NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE in combination with nlmsg_new()Thomas Graf1-3/+3
Using NLMSG_GOODSIZE results in multiple pages being used as nlmsg_new() will automatically add the size of the netlink header to the payload thus exceeding the page limit. NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE takes this into account.

2012-05-29genetlink: Build a generic netlink family module aliasNeil Horman1-2/+1
Generic netlink searches for -type- formatted aliases when requesting a module to fulfill a protocol request (i.e. net-pf-16-proto-16-type-<x>, 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-<x> 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.

2012-05-17net: l2tp: Standardize logging stylesJoe Perches1-1/+3
Use more current logging styles. Add pr_fmt to prefix output appropriately. Convert printks to pr_<level>. Convert PRINTK macros to new l2tp_<level> macros. Neaten some <foo>_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. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: James Chapman <jchapman@katalix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-05-01l2tp: netlink api for l2tpv3 ipv6 unmanaged tunnelsChris Elston1-4/+44
This patch adds support for unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels over IPv6 using the netlink API. We already support unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnels over IPv4. A patch to iproute2 to make use of this feature will be submitted separately.

2012-05-01l2tp: fix locking of 64-bit counters for smpJames Chapman1-16/+46
L2TP uses 64-bit counters but since these are not updated atomically, we need to make them safe for smp. This patch addresses that. Signed-off-by: James Chapman <jchapman@katalix.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-04-03l2tp: Add support for static unmanaged L2TPv3 tunnelsJames Chapman1-4/+14
This patch adds support for static (unmanaged) L2TPv3 tunnels, where the tunnel socket is created by the kernel rather than being created by userspace. This means L2TP tunnels and sessions can be created manually, without needing an L2TP control protocol implemented in userspace. This might be useful where the user wants a simple ethernet over IP tunnel. A patch to iproute2 adds a new command set under "ip l2tp" to make use of this feature. This will be submitted separately.

2010-04-03l2tp: Add netlink control API for L2TPJames Chapman1-0/+830
In L2TPv3, we need to create/delete/modify/query L2TP tunnel and session contexts. The number of parameters is significant. So let's use netlink. Userspace uses this API to control L2TP tunnel/session contexts in the kernel. The previous pppol2tp driver was managed using [gs]etsockopt(). This API is retained for backwards compatibility. Unlike L2TPv2 which carries only PPP frames, L2TPv3 can carry raw ethernet frames or other frame types and these do not always have an associated socket family. Therefore, we need a way to use L2TP sessions that doesn't require a socket type for each supported frame type. Hence netlink is used.
