ip_conntrack_flush() used to be part of ip_conntrack_cleanup(), which needs to drop _all_ references on module unload.

2005-12-01[NETFILTER]: Fix recent match jiffies wrap mismatchesPhil Oester
Around jiffies wrap time (i.e. within first 5 mins after boot), recent match rules which contain both --seconds and --hitcount arguments experience false matches. This is because the last_pkts array is filled with zeros on creation, and when comparing 'now' to 0 (+ --seconds argument), time_before_eq thinks it has found a hit. Below patch adds a break if the packet value is zero. This has the unfortunate side effect of causing mismatches if a packet was received when jiffies really was equal to zero. The odds of that happening are slim compared to the problems caused by not adding the break however. Plus, the author used this same method just below, so it is "good enough". This fixes netfilter bugs #383 and #395. Signed-off-by: Phil Oester <kernel@linuxace.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-12-01[NETFILTER]: Ignore ACKs ACKs on half open connections in TCP conntrackJozsef Kadlecsik
Mounting NFS file systems after a (warm) reboot could take a long time if firewalling and connection tracking was enabled. The reason is that the NFS clients tends to use the same ports (800 and counting down). Now on reboot, the server would still have a TCB for an existing TCP connection client:800 -> server:2049. The client sends a SYN from port 800 to server:2049, which elicits an ACK from the server. The firewall on the client drops the ACK because (from its point of view) the connection is still in half-open state, and it expects to see a SYNACK. The client will eventually time out after several minutes. The following patch corrects this, by accepting ACKs on half open connections as well.

2005-11-29[IPV4] tcp/route: Another look at hash table sizesMike Stroyan
The tcp_ehash hash table gets too big on systems with really big memory. It is worse on systems with pages larger than 4KB. It wastes memory that could be better used. It also makes the netstat command slow because reading /proc/net/tcp and /proc/net/tcp6 needs to go through the full hash table. The default value should not be larger for larger page sizes. It seems that the effect of page size is an unintended error dating back a long time. I also wonder if the default value really should be a larger fraction of memory for systems with more memory. While systems with really big ram can afford more space for hash tables, it is not clear to me that they benefit from increasing the allocation ratio for this table. The amount of memory allocated is determined by net/ipv4/tcp.c:tcp_init and mm/page_alloc.c:alloc_large_system_hash. tcp_init calls alloc_large_system_hash passing parameters- bucketsize=sizeof(struct tcp_ehash_bucket) numentries=thash_entries scale=(num_physpages >= 128 * 1024) ? (25-PAGE_SHIFT) : (27-PAGE_SHIFT) limit=0 On i386, PAGE_SHIFT is 12 for a page size of 4K On ia64, PAGE_SHIFT defaults to 14 for a page size of 16K The num_physpages test above makes the allocation take a larger fraction of the total memory on systems with larger memory. The threshold size for a i386 system is 512MB. For an ia64 system with 16KB pages the threshold is 2GB. For smaller memory systems- On i386, scale = (27 - 12) = 15 On ia64, scale = (27 - 14) = 13 For larger memory systems- On i386, scale = (25 - 12) = 13 On ia64, scale = (25 - 14) = 11 For the rest of this discussion, I'll just track the larger memory case. The default behavior has numentries=thash_entries=0, so the allocated size is determined by either scale or by the default limit of 1/16 of total memory. In alloc_large_system_hash- | numentries = (flags & HASH_HIGHMEM) ? nr_all_pages : nr_kernel_pages; | numentries += (1UL << (20 - PAGE_SHIFT)) - 1; | numentries >>= 20 - PAGE_SHIFT; | numentries <<= 20 - PAGE_SHIFT; At this point, numentries is pages for all of memory, rounded up to the nearest megabyte boundary. | /* limit to 1 bucket per 2^scale bytes of low memory */ | if (scale > PAGE_SHIFT) | numentries >>= (scale - PAGE_SHIFT); | else | numentries <<= (PAGE_SHIFT - scale); On i386, numentries >>= (13 - 12), so numentries is 1/8196 of bytes of total memory. On ia64, numentries <<= (14 - 11), so numentries is 1/2048 of bytes of total memory. | log2qty = long_log2(numentries); | | do { | size = bucketsize << log2qty; bucketsize is 16, so size is 16 times numentries, rounded down to a power of two. On i386, size is 1/512 of bytes of total memory. On ia64, size is 1/128 of bytes of total memory. For smaller systems the results are On i386, size is 1/2048 of bytes of total memory. On ia64, size is 1/512 of bytes of total memory. The large page effect can be removed by just replacing the use of PAGE_SHIFT with a constant of 12 in the calls to alloc_large_system_hash. That makes them more like the other uses of that function from fs/inode.c and fs/dcache.c Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
