2007-04-20[MIPS] Fix wrong checksum for split TCP packets on 64-bit MIPSDave Johnson
I've traced down an off-by-one TCP checksum calculation error under the following conditions: 1) The TCP code needs to split a full-sized packet due to a reduced MSS (typically due to the addition of TCP options mid-stream like SACK). _AND_ 2) The checksum of the 2nd fragment is larger than the checksum of the original packet. After subtraction this results in a checksum for the 1st fragment with bits 16..31 set to 1. (this is ok) _AND_ 3) The checksum of the 1st fragment's TCP header plus the previously 32bit checksum of the 1st fragment DOES NOT cause a 32bit overflow when added together. This results in a checksum of the TCP header plus TCP data that still has the upper 16 bits as 1's. _THEN_ 4) The TCP+data checksum is added to the checksum of the pseudo IP header with csum_tcpudp_nofold() incorrectly (the bug). The problem is the checksum of the TCP+data is passed to csum_tcpudp_nofold() as an 32bit unsigned value, however the assembly code acts on it as if it is a 64bit unsigned value. This causes an incorrect 32->64bit extension if the sum has bit 31 set. The resulting checksum is off by one. This problems is data and TCP header dependent due to #2 and #3 above so it doesn't occur on every TCP packet split.

2007-01-24[MIPS] Fix wrong checksum calculation on 64-bit MIPSAtsushi Nemoto
The commit 8e3d8433d8c22ca6c42cba4a67d300c39aae7822 ([NET]: MIPS checksum annotations and cleanups) broke 64-bit MIPS. The problem is the commit replaces some unsigned long with __be32. On 64bit MIPS, a __be32 (i.e. unsigned int) value is represented as a sign-extented 32-bit value in a 64-bit argument register. So the address 192.168.0.1 (0xc0a80001) is passed as 0xffffffffc0a80001 to csum_tcpudp_nofold() but the asm code in the function expects 0x00000000c0a80001, therefore it returns a wrong checksum. Explicit cast to unsigned long is needed to drop high 32bit. Signed-off-by: Atsushi Nemoto <anemo@mba.ocn.ne.jp> Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

2005-10-29The type of sum in csum_tcpudp_nofold is "unsigned int", so when we assignRalf Baechle
to it in an asm() block, and we're running on a system with 64-bit registers, it is vitally important that we sign extend it correctly before returning to C. Otherwise the stray high bits will be preserved into csum_fold, and on the SB-1 processor, 32-bit arithmetic on a non sign-extended register will yield surprising results. This caused incorrect checksums in some UDP packets for NFS root. The problem was mild when using a 10.0.1.x IP address, but severe when using 192.168.1.x.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
