tcp: fix TCP_MAXSEG for established IPv6 passive sockets

2012-04-22T21:09:35Z

Commit f5fff5d forgot to fix TCP_MAXSEG behavior IPv6 sockets, so IPv6 TCP server sockets that used TCP_MAXSEG would find that the advmss of child sockets would be incorrect. This commit mirrors the advmss logic from tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock. Eventually this logic should probably be shared between IPv4 and IPv6, but this at least fixes this issue.

ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cache

2012-04-13T16:58:29Z

If the ipv6 dst cache which copy from the dst generated by ICMPV6 RA packet. this dst cache will not check expire because it has no RTF_EXPIRES flag. So this dst cache will always be used until the dst gc run. Change the struct dst_entry,add a union contains new pointer from and expires. When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort. Add some functions to operate the RTF_EXPIRES flag and expires(from) together. and change the code to use these new adding functions. Changes from v5: modify ip6_route_add and ndisc_router_discovery to use new adding functions. Only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Fix bluetooth userland regression reported by Keith Packard, from Gustavo Padovan. 2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan. 3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet. 4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal Cardwell. 5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end defeating this specification. This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available. Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

ipv6: fix array index in ip6_mc_add_src()

2012-04-05T04:00:42Z

Convert array index from the loop bound to the loop index. And remove the void type conversion to ip6_mc_del1_src() return code, seem it is unnecessary, since ip6_mc_del1_src() does not use __must_check similar attribute, no compiler will report the warning when it is removed. v2: enrich the commit header Signed-off-by: RongQing.Li Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv6: Fix RTM_GETROUTE's interpretation of RTA_IIF to be consistent with ipv4

2012-04-01T21:29:40Z

In IPv4, if an RTA_IIF attribute is specified within an RTM_GETROUTE message, then a route is searched as if a packet was received on the specified 'iif' interface. However in IPv6, RTA_IIF is not interpreted in the same way: 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' always calls 'ip6_route_output()', regardless the RTA_IIF attribute. As a result, in IPv6 there's no way to use RTM_GETROUTE in order to look for a route as if a packet was received on a specific interface. Fix 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' so that RTA_IIF is interpreted as "lookup a route as if a packet was received on the specified interface", similar to IPv4's 'inet_rtm_getroute()' interpretation.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells: "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion dependencies. I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can and made sure that they don't break. The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2(). This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h. The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h. It holds a number of low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg. memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that aren't used in many places (eg. switch_to()). These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces: (1) asm/barrier.h Move memory barriers here. This already done for MIPS and Alpha. (2) asm/switch_to.h Move switch_to() and related stuff here. (3) asm/exec.h Move arch_align_stack() here. Other process execution related bits could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h. (4) asm/cmpxchg.h Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg(). (5) asm/bug.h Move die() and related bits. (6) asm/auxvec.h Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here. Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis." Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat weakened by that.
