2012-06-27netdev/phy/of: Add more methods for binding PHY devices to drivers.David Daney
Allow PHY drivers to supply their own device matching function (match_phy_device()), or to be matched OF compatible properties. PHYs following IEEE802.3 clause 45 have more than one device identifier constants, which breaks the default device matching code. Other 10G PHYs don't follow the standard manufacturer/device identifier register layout standards, but they do use the standard MDIO bus protocols for register access. Both of these require adjustments to the PHY driver to device matching code. If the there is an of_node associated with such a PHY, we can match it to its driver using the "compatible" properties, just as we do with certain platform devices. If the "compatible" property match fails, first check if there is a driver supplied matching function, and if not fall back to the existing identifier matching rules.

2012-06-27netdev/phy: Handle IEEE802.3 clause 45 Ethernet PHYsDavid Daney
The IEEE802.3 clause 45 MDIO bus protocol allows for directly addressing PHY registers using a 21 bit address, and is used by many 10G Ethernet PHYS. Already existing is the ability of MDIO bus drivers to use clause 45, with the MII_ADDR_C45 flag. Here we add struct phy_c45_device_ids to hold the device identifier registers present in clause 45. struct phy_device gets a couple of new fields: c45_ids to hold the identifiers and is_c45 to signal that it is clause 45. get_phy_device() gets a new parameter is_c45 to indicate that the PHY device should use the clause 45 protocol, and its callers are adjusted to pass false. The follow-on patch to of_mdio.c will pass true where appropriate. EXPORT phy_device_create() so that the follow-on patch to of_mdio.c can use it to create phy devices for PHYs, that have non-standard device identifier registers, based on the device tree bindings.

2012-06-22ipv4: Add sysctl knob to control early socket demuxAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to add a control for disabling early socket demux. The main motivation behind this patch is to provide an option to disable the feature as it adds an additional cost to routing that reduces overall throughput by up to 5%. For example one of my systems went from 12.1Mpps to 11.6 after the early socket demux was added. It looks like the reason for the regression is that we are now having to perform two lookups, first the one for an established socket, and then the one for the routing table. By adding this patch and toggling the value for ip_early_demux to 0 I am able to get back to the 12.1Mpps I was previously seeing.

2012-06-16netfilter: add user-space connection tracking helper infrastructurePablo Neira Ayuso
There are good reasons to supports helpers in user-space instead: * Rapid connection tracking helper development, as developing code in user-space is usually faster. * Reliability: A buggy helper does not crash the kernel. Moreover, we can monitor the helper process and restart it in case of problems. * Security: Avoid complex string matching and mangling in kernel-space running in privileged mode. Going further, we can even think about running user-space helpers as a non-root process. * Extensibility: It allows the development of very specific helpers (most likely non-standard proprietary protocols) that are very likely not to be accepted for mainline inclusion in the form of kernel-space connection tracking helpers. This patch adds the infrastructure to allow the implementation of user-space conntrack helpers by means of the new nfnetlink subsystem `nfnetlink_cthelper' and the existing queueing infrastructure (nfnetlink_queue). I had to add the new hook NF_IP6_PRI_CONNTRACK_HELPER to register ipv[4|6]_helper which results from splitting ipv[4|6]_confirm into two pieces. This change is required not to break NAT sequence adjustment and conntrack confirmation for traffic that is enqueued to our user-space conntrack helpers. Basic operation, in a few steps: 1) Register user-space helper by means of `nfct': nfct helper add ftp inet tcp [ It must be a valid existing helper supported by conntrack-tools ] 2) Add rules to enable the FTP user-space helper which is used to track traffic going to TCP port 21. For locally generated packets: iptables -I OUTPUT -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp For non-locally generated packets: iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp 3) Run the test conntrackd in helper mode (see example files under doc/helper/conntrackd.conf conntrackd 4) Generate FTP traffic going, if everything is OK, then conntrackd should create expectations (you can check that with `conntrack': conntrack -E expect [NEW] 301 proto=6 src=192.168.1.136 dst=130.89.148.12 sport=0 dport=54037 mask-src=255.255.255.255 mask-dst=255.255.255.255 sport=0 dport=65535 master-src=192.168.1.136 master-dst=130.89.148.12 sport=57127 dport=21 class=0 helper=ftp [DESTROY] 301 proto=6 src=192.168.1.136 dst=130.89.148.12 sport=0 dport=54037 mask-src=255.255.255.255 mask-dst=255.255.255.255 sport=0 dport=65535 master-src=192.168.1.136 master-dst=130.89.148.12 sport=57127 dport=21 class=0 helper=ftp This confirms that our test helper is receiving packets including the conntrack information, and adding expectations in kernel-space. The user-space helper can also store its private tracking information in the conntrack structure in the kernel via the CTA_HELP_INFO. The kernel will consider this a binary blob whose layout is unknown. This information will be included in the information that is transfered to user-space via glue code that integrates nfnetlink_queue and ctnetlink.

2012-06-16netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: add NAT TCP sequence adjustment if packet mangledPablo Neira Ayuso
User-space programs that receive traffic via NFQUEUE may mangle packets. If NAT is enabled, this usually puzzles sequence tracking, leading to traffic disruptions. With this patch, nfnl_queue will make the corresponding NAT TCP sequence adjustment if: 1) The packet has been mangled, 2) the NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK flag has been set, and 3) NAT is detected. There are some records on the Internet complaning about this issue: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/260757/packet-mangling-utilities-besides-iptables By now, we only support TCP since we have no helpers for DCCP or SCTP. Better to add this if we ever have some helper over those layer 4 protocols. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2012-06-16netfilter: add glue code to integrate nfnetlink_queue and ctnetlinkPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch allows you to include the conntrack information together with the packet that is sent to user-space via NFQUEUE. Previously, there was no integration between ctnetlink and nfnetlink_queue. If you wanted to access conntrack information from your libnetfilter_queue program, you required to query ctnetlink from user-space to obtain it. Thus, delaying the packet processing even more. Including the conntrack information is optional, you can set it via NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK flag with the new NFQA_CFG_FLAGS attribute. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2012-06-15net: remove skb_orphan_try()Eric Dumazet
Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming sk_sndbuf is not too big) We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain, now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance matters.

2012-06-12ipv4: Add interface option to enable routing of 127.0.0.0/8Thomas Graf
Routing of 127/8 is tradtionally forbidden, we consider packets from that address block martian when routing and do not process corresponding ARP requests. This is a sane default but renders a huge address space practically unuseable. The RFC states that no address within the 127/8 block should ever appear on any network anywhere but it does not forbid the use of such addresses outside of the loopback device in particular. For example to address a pool of virtual guests behind a load balancer. This patch adds a new interface option 'route_localnet' enabling routing of the 127/8 address block and processing of ARP requests on a specific interface. Note that for the feature to work, the default local route covering 127/8 dev lo needs to be removed. Example: $ sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.route_localnet=1 $ ip route del 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo table local $ ip addr add 127.1.0.1/16 dev eth0 $ ip route flush cache V2: Fix invalid check to auto flush cache (thanks davem) Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Using linux/tcp.h from C++ results in: cat t.cc #include <linux/tcp.h> int main() { } g++ -c t.cc In file included from t.cc:1: /usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: '__u32 __fswab32(__u32)' cannot appear in a constant-expression /usr/include/linux/tcp.h:72: error: a function call cannot appear in a constant-expression ... Attached trivial patch fixes this problem. Tested: - the t.cc above compiles with g++ and - the following program generates the same output before/after the patch: #include <linux/tcp.h> #include <stdio.h> int main () { #define P(a) printf("%s: %08x\n", #a, (int)a) P(TCP_FLAG_CWR); P(TCP_FLAG_ECE); P(TCP_FLAG_URG); P(TCP_FLAG_ACK); P(TCP_FLAG_PSH); P(TCP_FLAG_RST); P(TCP_FLAG_SYN); P(TCP_FLAG_FIN); P(TCP_RESERVED_BITS); P(TCP_DATA_OFFSET); #undef P return 0; } Signed-off-by: Paul Pluzhnikov <ppluzhnikov@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-06-09[PATCH] tcp: Cache inetpeer in timewait socket, and only when necessary.David S. Miller
Since it's guarenteed that we will access the inetpeer if we're trying to do timewait recycling and TCP options were enabled on the connection, just cache the peer in the timewait socket. In the future, inetpeer lookups will be context dependent (per routing realm), and this helps facilitate that as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
