Connection tracking helpers have to drop packets under exceptional situations. Currently, the user gets the following logging message in case that happens: nf_ct_%s: dropping packet ... However, depending on the helper, there are different reasons why a packet can be dropped. This patch modifies the existing code to provide more specific error message in the scope of each helper to help users to debug the reason why the packet has been dropped, ie: nf_ct_%s: dropping packet: reason ...

2013-02-13net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation.Pravin B Shelar
Patch cef401de7be8c4e (net: fix possible wrong checksum generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type. net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation offload of such packets without the feature. Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared info tx_flags rather than gso_type. tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-02-13tcp: send packets with a socket timestampAndrey Vagin
A socket timestamp is a sum of the global tcp_time_stamp and a per-socket offset. A socket offset is added in places where externally visible tcp timestamp option is parsed/initialized. Connections in the SYN_RECV state are not supported, global tcp_time_stamp is used for them, because repair mode doesn't support this state.

2013-01-29ip_gre: When TOS is inherited, use configured TOS value for non-IP packetsDavid Ward
A GRE tunnel can be configured so that outgoing tunnel packets inherit the value of the TOS field from the inner IP header. In doing so, when a non-IP packet is transmitted through the tunnel, the TOS field will always be set to 0. Instead, the user should be able to configure a different TOS value as the fallback to use for non-IP packets. This is helpful when the non-IP packets are all control packets and should be handled by routers outside the tunnel as having Internet Control precedence. One example of this is the NHRP packets that control a DMVPN-compatible mGRE tunnel; they are encapsulated directly by GRE and do not contain an inner IP header. Under the existing behavior, the IFLA_GRE_TOS parameter must be set to '1' for the TOS value to be inherited. Now, only the least significant bit of this parameter must be set to '1', and when a non-IP packet is sent through the tunnel, the upper 6 bits of this same parameter will be copied into the TOS field. (The ECN bits get masked off as before.) This behavior is backwards-compatible with existing configurations and iproute2 versions.

2013-01-29ipv4: introduce address lifetimeJiri Pirko
There are some usecase when lifetime of ipv4 addresses might be helpful. For example: 1) initramfs networkmanager uses a DHCP daemon to learn network configuration parameters 2) initramfs networkmanager addresses, routes and DNS configuration 3) initramfs networkmanager is requested to stop 4) initramfs networkmanager stops all daemons including dhclient 5) there are addresses and routes configured but no daemon running. If the system doesn't start networkmanager for some reason, addresses and routes will be used forever, which violates RFC 2131. This patch is essentially a backport of ivp6 address lifetime mechanism for ipv4 addresses. Current "ip" tool supports this without any patch (since it does not distinguish between ipv4 and ipv6 addresses in this perspective.

Replace the per network namespace shared atomic "mem" accounting variable, in the fragmentation code, with a lib/percpu_counter. Getting percpu_counter to scale to the fragmentation code usage requires some tweaks. At first view, percpu_counter looks superfast, but it does not scale on multi-CPU/NUMA machines, because the default batch size is too small, for frag code usage. Thus, I have adjusted the batch size by using __percpu_counter_add() directly, instead of percpu_counter_sub() and percpu_counter_add(). The batch size is increased to 130.000, based on the largest 64K fragment memory usage. This does introduce some imprecise memory accounting, but its does not need to be strict for this use-case. It is also essential, that the percpu_counter, does not share cacheline with other writers, to make this scale. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-23soreuseport: TCP/IPv4 implementationTom Herbert
Allow multiple listener sockets to bind to the same port. Motivation for soresuseport would be something like a web server binding to port 80 running with multiple threads, where each thread might have it's own listener socket. This could be done as an alternative to other models: 1) have one listener thread which dispatches completed connections to workers. 2) accept on a single listener socket from multiple threads. In case #1 the listener thread can easily become the bottleneck with high connection turn-over rate. In case #2, the proportion of connections accepted per thread tends to be uneven under high connection load (assuming simple event loop: while (1) { accept(); process() }, wakeup does not promote fairness among the sockets. We have seen the disproportion to be as high as 3:1 ratio between thread accepting most connections and the one accepting the fewest. With so_reusport the distribution is uniform.

2013-01-23netfilter: nf_conntrack: refactor l4proto support for netnsGao feng
Move the code that register/unregister l4proto to the module_init/exit context. Given that we have to modify some interfaces to accomodate these changes, it is a good time to use shorter function names for this using the nf_ct_* prefix instead of nf_conntrack_*, that is: nf_ct_l4proto_register nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_register nf_ct_l4proto_unregister nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_unregister We same many line breaks with it.

2013-01-22ipmr: fix sparse warning when testing origin or groupNicolas Dichtel
mfc_mcastgrp and mfc_origin are __be32, thus we need to convert INADDR_ANY. Because INADDR_ANY is 0, this patch just fix sparse warnings. Reported-by: Fengguang Wu <fengguang.wu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
