2011-07-21ipv4: Constrain UFO fragment sizes to multiples of 8 bytesBill Sommerfeld
Because the ip fragment offset field counts 8-byte chunks, ip fragments other than the last must contain a multiple of 8 bytes of payload. ip_ufo_append_data wasn't respecting this constraint and, depending on the MTU and ip option sizes, could create malformed non-final fragments.

2011-07-21ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictableEric Dumazet
IPv6 fragment identification generation is way beyond what we use for IPv4 : It uses a single generator. Its not scalable and allows DOS attacks. Now inetpeer is IPv6 aware, we can use it to provide a more secure and scalable frag ident generator (per destination, instead of system wide) This patch : 1) defines a new secure_ipv6_id() helper 2) extends inet_getid() to provide 32bit results 3) extends ipv6_select_ident() with a new dest parameter Reported-by: Fernando Gont <fernando@gont.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-07-21ipv6: unshare inetpeersEric Dumazet
We currently cow metrics a bit too soon in IPv6 case : All routes are tied to a single inetpeer entry. Change ip6_rt_copy() to get destination address as second argument, so that we fill rt6i_dst before the dst_copy_metrics() call. icmp6_dst_alloc() must set rt6i_dst before calling dst_metric_set(), or else the cow is done while rt6i_dst is still NULL. If orig route points to readonly metrics, we can share the pointer instead of performing the memory allocation and copy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-07-21ethtool: Allow zero-length register dumps againBen Hutchings
Some drivers (ab)use the ethtool_ops::get_regs operation to expose only a hardware revision ID. Commit a77f5db361ed9953b5b749353ea2c7fed2bf8d93 ('ethtool: Allocate register dump buffer with vmalloc()') had the side-effect of breaking these, as vmalloc() returns a null pointer for size=0 whereas kmalloc() did not.

2011-07-21netfilter: ipset: hash:net,iface fixed to handle overlapping nets behind ↵Jozsef Kadlecsik
different interfaces If overlapping networks with different interfaces was added to the set, the type did not handle it properly. Example ipset create test hash:net,iface ipset add test 192.168.0.0/16,eth0 ipset add test 192.168.0.0/24,eth1 Now, if a packet was sent from 192.168.0.0/24,eth0, the type returned a match. In the patch the algorithm is fixed in order to correctly handle overlapping networks. Limitation: the same network cannot be stored with more than 64 different interfaces in a single set.

Passing O_WRONLY|O_RDWR is undefined according to the man page, but the Linux VFS interprets this as O_RDWR, so we'll do the same.

2011-07-19netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: batch verdict supportFlorian Westphal
Introduces a new nfnetlink type that applies a given verdict to all queued packets with an id <= the id in the verdict message. If a mark is provided it is applied to all matched packets. This reduces the number of verdicts that have to be sent. Applications that make use of this feature need to maintain a timeout to send a batchverdict periodically to avoid starvation.

2011-07-19netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: assert monotonic packet idsEric Dumazet
Packet identifier is currently setup in nfqnl_build_packet_message(), using one atomic_inc_return(). Problem is that since several cpus might concurrently call nfqnl_enqueue_packet() for the same queue, we can deliver packets to consumer in non monotonic way (packet N+1 being delivered after packet N) This patch moves the packet id setup from nfqnl_build_packet_message() to nfqnl_enqueue_packet() to guarantee correct delivery order. This also removes one atomic operation.

nenetlink_queue operations on SMP are not efficent if several queues are used, because of nfnl_mutex contention when applications give packet verdict. Use new call_rcu field in struct nfnl_callback to advertize a callback that is called under rcu_read_lock instead of nfnl_mutex.

2011-07-14net: remove NETIF_F_ALL_TX_OFFLOADSMichał Mirosław
There is no software fallback implemented for SCTP or FCoE checksumming, and so it should not be passed on by software devices like bridge or bonding. For VLAN devices, this is different. First, the driver for underlying device should be prepared to get offloaded packets even when the feature is disabled (especially if it advertises it in vlan_features). Second, devices under VLANs do not get replaced without tearing down the VLAN first. This fixes a mess I accidentally introduced while converting bonding to ndo_fix_features.

Packets to devices without NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM (including NETIF_F_NO_CSUM) should be properly checksummed because the packets can be diverted or rerouted after construction. This still leaves packets diverted from NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM-enabled devices with broken checksums. Fixing this needs implementing software offload fallback in networking core. For users of sctp_checksum_disable, skb->ip_summed should be left as CHECKSUM_NONE and not CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY as per include/linux/skbuff.h.
