2008-03-28[NET]: Don't send ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED for GSO packetsRusty Russell
Commit 9af3912ec9e30509b76cb376abb65a4d8af27df3 ("[NET] Move DF check to ip_forward") added a new check to send ICMP fragmentation needed for large packets. Unlike the check in ip_finish_output(), it doesn't check for GSO. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: Introduce NF_INET_ hook valuesPatrick McHardy
The IPv4 and IPv6 hook values are identical, yet some code tries to figure out the "correct" value by looking at the address family. Introduce NF_INET_* values for both IPv4 and IPv6. The old values are kept in a #ifndef __KERNEL__ section for userspace compatibility.

2007-10-15[IPV4]: Uninline netfilter okfnsPatrick McHardy
Now that we don't pass double skb pointers to nf_hook_slow anymore, gcc can generate tail calls for some of the netfilter hook okfn invocations, so there is no need to inline the functions anymore. This caused huge code bloat since we ended up with one inlined version and one out-of-line version since we pass the address to nf_hook_slow. Before: text data bss dec hex filename 8997385 1016524 524652 10538561 a0ce41 vmlinux After: text data bss dec hex filename 8994009 1016524 524652 10535185 a0c111 vmlinux ------------------------------------------------------- -3376 All cases have been verified to generate tail-calls with and without netfilter. The okfns in ipmr and xfrm4_input still remain inline because gcc can't generate tail-calls for them. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-10-10[IPV4] IPSEC: Omit redirect for tunnelled packet.Masahide NAKAMURA
IPv4 IPsec tunnel gateway incorrectly sends redirect to sender if it is onlink host when network device the IPsec tunnelled packet is arrived is the same as the one the decapsulated packet is sent. With this patch, it omits to send the redirect when the forwarding skbuff carries secpath, since such skbuff should be assumed as a decapsulated packet from IPsec tunnel by own. Request for comments: Alternatively we'd have another way to change net/ipv4/route.c (__mkroute_input) to use RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag unless skbuff has no secpath. It is better than this patch at performance point of view because IPv4 redirect judgement is done at routing slow-path. However, it should be taken care of resource changes between SAD(XFRM states) and routing table. In other words, When IPv4 SAD is changed does the related routing entry go to its slow-path? If not, it is reasonable to apply this patch. Signed-off-by: Masahide NAKAMURA <nakam@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-04-25[NET]: Allow forwarding of ip_summed except CHECKSUM_COMPLETEHerbert Xu
Right now Xen has a horrible hack that lets it forward packets with partial checksums. One of the reasons that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE were added is so that we can get rid of this hack (where it creates two extra bits in the skbuff to essentially mirror ip_summed without being destroyed by the forwarding code). I had forgotten that I've already gone through all the deivce drivers last time around to make sure that they're looking at ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL rather than ip_summed != 0 on transmit. In any case, I've now done that again so it should definitely be safe. Unfortunately nobody has yet added any code to update CHECKSUM_COMPLETE values on forward so we I'm setting that to CHECKSUM_NONE. This should be safe to remove for bridging but I'd like to check that code path first. So here is the patch that lets us get rid of the hack by preserving ip_summed (mostly) on forwarded packets.

2007-02-14[PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

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!
