2012-07-18ipv6: add ipv6_addr_hash() helperEric Dumazet
Introduce ipv6_addr_hash() helper doing a XOR on all bits of an IPv6 address, with an optimized x86_64 version. Use it in flow dissector, as suggested by Andrew McGregor, to reduce hash collision probabilities in fq_codel (and other users of flow dissector) Use it in ip6_tunnel.c and use more bit shuffling, as suggested by David Laight, as existing hash was ignoring most of them. Use it in sunrpc and use more bit shuffling, using hash_32(). Use it in net/ipv6/addrconf.c, using hash_32() as well. As a cleanup, use it in net/ipv4/tcp_metrics.c Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reported-by: Andrew McGregor <andrewmcgr@gmail.com> Cc: Dave Taht <dave.taht@gmail.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: David Laight <David.Laight@ACULAB.COM> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-01-04ipv6: Check RA for sllao when configuring optimistic ipv6 address (v2)Neil Horman
Recently Dave noticed that a test we did in ipv6_add_addr to see if we next hop route for the interface we're adding an addres to was wrong (see commit 7ffbcecbeed91e5874e9a1cfc4c0cbb07dac3069). for one, it never triggers, and two, it was completely wrong to begin with. This test was meant to cover this section of RFC 4429: 3.3 Modifications to RFC 2462 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration * (modifies section 5.5) A host MAY choose to configure a new address as an Optimistic Address. A host that does not know the SLLAO of its router SHOULD NOT configure a new address as Optimistic. A router SHOULD NOT configure an Optimistic Address. This patch should bring us into proper compliance with the above clause. Since we only add a SLAAC address after we've received a RA which may or may not contain a source link layer address option, we can pass a pointer to that option to addrconf_prefix_rcv (which may be null if the option is not present), and only set the optimistic flag if the option was found in the RA. Change notes: (v2) modified the new parameter to addrconf_prefix_rcv to be a bool rather than a pointer to make its use more clear as per request from davem.

2011-08-01ipv6: updates to privacy addresses per RFC 4941.Lorenzo Colitti
Update the code to handle some of the differences between RFC 3041 and RFC 4941, which obsoletes it. Also a couple of janitorial fixes. - Allow router advertisements to increase the lifetime of temporary addresses. This was not allowed by RFC 3041, but is specified by RFC 4941. It is useful when RA lifetimes are lower than TEMP_{VALID,PREFERRED}_LIFETIME: in this case, the previous code would delete or deprecate addresses prematurely. - Change the default of MAX_RETRY to 3 per RFC 4941. - Add a comment to clarify that the preferred and valid lifetimes in inet6_ifaddr are relative to the timestamp. - Shorten lines to 80 characters in a couple of places.

2011-04-24net: Remove __KERNEL__ cpp checks from include/netDavid S. Miller
These header files are never installed to user consumption, so any __KERNEL__ cpp checks are superfluous.

2010-09-26ipv6: add a missing unregister_pernet_subsys callNeil Horman
Clean up a missing exit path in the ipv6 module init routines. In addrconf_init we call ipv6_addr_label_init which calls register_pernet_subsys for the ipv6_addr_label_ops structure. But if module loading fails, or if the ipv6 module is removed, there is no corresponding unregister_pernet_subsys call, which leaves a now-bogus address on the pernet_list, leading to oopses in subsequent registrations. This patch cleans up both the failed load path and the unload path. Tested by myself with good results.

Update rcu_dereference() primitives to use new lockdep-based checking. The rcu_dereference() in __in6_dev_get() may be protected either by rcu_read_lock() or RTNL, per Eric Dumazet. The rcu_dereference() in __sk_free() is protected by the fact that it is never reached if an update could change it. Check for this by using rcu_dereference_check() to verify that the struct sock's ->sk_wmem_alloc counter is zero. Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: David S.

2009-09-15bonding: remap muticast addresses without using dev_close() and dev_open()Moni Shoua
This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses. This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks: *. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat) and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. *. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing table, which might be unnecessary. The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

2008-06-12ipv6 netns: Address labels per namespaceBenjamin Thery
This pacth makes IPv6 address labels per network namespace. It keeps the global label tables, ip6addrlbl_table, but adds a 'net' member to each ip6addrlbl_entry. This new member is taken into account when matching labels. Changelog ========= * v1: Initial version * v2: * Minize the penalty when network namespaces are not configured: * the 'net' member is added only if CONFIG_NET_NS is defined. This saves space when network namespaces are not configured. * 'net' value is retrieved with the inlined function ip6addrlbl_net() that always return &init_net when CONFIG_NET_NS is not defined. * 'net' member in ip6addrlbl_entry renamed to the less generic 'lbl_net' name (helps code search).

Nominally an autoconfigured IPv6 address is added to an interface in the Tentative state (as per RFC 2462). Addresses in this state remain in this state while the Duplicate Address Detection process operates on them to determine their uniqueness on the network. During this period, these tentative addresses may not be used for communication, increasing the time before a node may be able to communicate on a network. Using Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection, autoconfigured addresses may be used immediately for communication on the network, as long as certain rules are followed to avoid conflicts with other nodes during the Duplicate Address Detection process.
