2008-11-03net: '&' reduxAlexey Dobriyan
I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of & will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break compilation. So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy handler, it was never needed in fact. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-10-27net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceededNeil Horman
This is a patch to provide on demand route cache rebuilding. Currently, our route cache is rebulid periodically regardless of need. This introduced unneeded periodic latency. This patch offers a better approach. Using code provided by Eric Dumazet, we compute the standard deviation of the average hash bucket chain length while running rt_check_expire. Should any given chain length grow to larger that average plus 4 standard deviations, we trigger an emergency hash table rebuild for that net namespace. This allows for the common case in which chains are well behaved and do not grow unevenly to not incur any latency at all, while those systems (which may be being maliciously attacked), only rebuild when the attack is detected. This patch take 2 other factors into account: 1) chains with multiple entries that differ by attributes that do not affect the hash value are only counted once, so as not to unduly bias system to rebuilding if features like QOS are heavily used 2) if rebuilding crosses a certain threshold (which is adjustable via the added sysctl in this patch), route caching is disabled entirely for that net namespace, since constant rebuilding is less efficient that no caching at all Tested successfully by me.

2008-10-01ipv4: Loosen source address check on IPv4 outputJulian Anastasov
ip_route_output() contains a check to make sure that no flows with non-local source IP addresses are routed. This obviously makes using such addresses impossible. This patch introduces a flowi flag which makes omitting this check possible. The new flag provides a way of handling transparent and non-transparent connections differently.

2008-08-15ipv4: Disable route secret interval on zero intervalHerbert Xu
Let me first state that disabling the route cache hash rebuild should not be done without extensive analysis on the risk profile and careful deliberation. However, there are times when this can be done safely or for testing. For example, when you have mechanisms for ensuring that offending parties do not exist in your network. This patch lets the user disable the rebuild if the interval is set to zero. This also incidentally fixes a divide-by-zero error with name-spaces. In addition, this patch makes the effect of an interval change immediate rather than it taking effect at the next rebuild as is currently the case.

2008-07-27missing bits of net-namespace / sysctlAl Viro
Piss-poor sysctl registration API strikes again, film at 11... What we really need is _pathname_ required to be present in already registered table, so that kernel could warn about bad order. That's the next target for sysctl stuff (and generally saner and more explicit order of initialization of ipv[46] internals wouldn't hurt either). For the time being, here are full fixups required by ..._rotable() stuff; we make per-net sysctl sets descendents of "ro" one and make sure that sufficient skeleton is there before we start registering per-net sysctls.

2008-05-20ipsec: Use the correct ip_local_out functionHerbert Xu
Because the IPsec output function xfrm_output_resume does its own dst_output call it should always call __ip_local_output instead of ip_local_output as the latter may invoke dst_output directly. Otherwise the return values from nf_hook and dst_output may clash as they both use the value 1 but for different purposes. When that clash occurs this can cause a packet to be used after it has been freed which usually leads to a crash. Because the offending value is only returned from dst_output with qdiscs such as HTB, this bug is normally not visible. Thanks to Marco Berizzi for his perseverance in tracking this down.
