2013-08-28batman-adv: send GW_DEL event when the gw client mode is deselectedAntonio Quartulli
Whenever the GW client mode is deselected, a DEL event has to be sent in order to tell userspace that the current gateway has been lost.

2013-08-28batman-adv: set skb priority according to contentSimon Wunderlich
The skb priority field may help the wireless driver to choose the right queue (e.g. WMM queues). This should be set in batman-adv, as this information is only available here. This patch adds support for IPv4/IPv6 DS fields and VLAN PCP. Note that only VLAN PCP is used if a VLAN header is present. Also initially set TC_PRIO_CONTROL only for self-generated packets, and keep the priority set by higher layers.

2013-08-28xfrm: Fix potential null pointer dereference in xdst_queue_outputSteffen Klassert
The net_device might be not set on the skb when we try refcounting. This leads to a null pointer dereference in xdst_queue_output(). It turned out that the refcount to the net_device is not needed after all. The dst_entry has a refcount to the net_device before we queue the skb, so it can't go away. Therefore we can remove the refcount on queueing to fix the null pointer dereference. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>

2013-08-28netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/targetPatrick McHardy
Add a SYNPROXY for netfilter. The code is split into two parts, the synproxy core with common functions and an address family specific target. The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie. It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size announced by the server. Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in the direction server->client.

2013-08-28netfilter: ip[6]t_REJECT: tcp-reset using wrong MAC source if bridgedPhil Oester
As reported by Casper Gripenberg, in a bridged setup, using ip[6]t_REJECT with the tcp-reset option sends out reset packets with the src MAC address of the local bridge interface, instead of the MAC address of the intended destination. This causes some routers/firewalls to drop the reset packet as it appears to be spoofed. Fix this by bypassing ip[6]_local_out and setting the MAC of the sender in the tcp reset packet.

2013-08-27net: tcp_probe: allow more advanced ingress filtering by markDaniel Borkmann
Currently, the tcp_probe snooper can either filter packets by a given port (handed to the module via module parameter e.g. port=80) or lets all TCP traffic pass (port=0, default). When a port is specified, the port number is tested against the sk's source/destination port. Thus, if one of them matches, the information will be further processed for the log. As this is quite limited, allow for more advanced filtering possibilities which can facilitate debugging/analysis with the help of the tcp_probe snooper. Therefore, similarly as added to BPF machine in commit 7e75f93e ("pkt_sched: ingress socket filter by mark"), add the possibility to use skb->mark as a filter. If the mark is not being used otherwise, this allows ingress filtering by flow (e.g. in order to track updates from only a single flow, or a subset of all flows for a given port) and other things such as dynamic logging and reconfiguration without removing/re-inserting the tcp_probe module, etc. Simple example: insmod net/ipv4/tcp_probe.ko fwmark=8888 full=1 ... iptables -A INPUT -i eth4 -t mangle -p tcp --dport 22 \ --sport 60952 -j MARK --set-mark 8888 [... sampling interval ...] iptables -D INPUT -i eth4 -t mangle -p tcp --dport 22 \ --sport 60952 -j MARK --set-mark 8888 The current option to filter by a given port is still being preserved.

2013-08-26mac80211: fix change_interface queue assignmentsJohannes Berg
Jouni reported that with mac80211_hwsim, multicast TX was causing crashes due to invalid vif->cab_queue assignment. It turns out that this is caused by change_interface() getting invoked and not having the vif->type/vif->p2p assigned correctly before calling the queue check (ieee80211_check_queues). Fix this by passing the 'external' interface type to the function and adjusting it accordingly. While at it, also fix the error path in change_interface, it wasn't correctly resetting to the external type but using the internal one instead. Fortunately this affects on hwsim because all other drivers set the vif->type/vif->p2p variables when changing iftype. This shouldn't be needed, but almost all implementations actually do it for their own internal handling. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2013-08-22tcp: increase throughput when reordering is highYuchung Cheng
The stack currently detects reordering and avoid spurious retransmission very well. However the throughput is sub-optimal under high reordering because cwnd is increased only if the data is deliverd in order. I.e., FLAG_DATA_ACKED check in tcp_ack(). The more packet are reordered the worse the throughput is. Therefore when reordering is proven high, cwnd should advance whenever the data is delivered regardless of its ordering. If reordering is low, conservatively advance cwnd only on ordered deliveries in Open state, and retain cwnd in Disordered state (RFC5681). Using netperf on a qdisc setup of 20Mbps BW and random RTT from 45ms to 55ms (for reordering effect). This change increases TCP throughput by 20 - 25% to near bottleneck BW. A special case is the stretched ACK with new SACK and/or ECE mark. For example, a receiver may receive an out of order or ECN packet with unacked data buffered because of LRO or delayed ACK. The principle on such an ACK is to advance cwnd on the cummulative acked part first, then reduce cwnd in tcp_fastretrans_alert().
