2008-03-05[NETNS][IPV6] route6 - pass always a valid socket to ip6_dst_lookupDaniel Lezcano
The ip6_dst_lookup receive a socket as parameter. In some part of the code it is called with a NULL socket parameter. We want to rely on the socket to retrieve the network namespace, so we always pass a valid socket in all cases.

2008-03-05[NETNS][IPV6] addrconf - make addrconf per namespaceBenjamin Thery
All the infrastructure to propagate the network namespace information is ready. Make use of it. There is a special case here between the initial network namespace and the other namespaces: * When ipv6 is initialized at boot time (aka in the init_net), it registers to the notifier callback. So addrconf_notify will be called as many time as there are network devices setup on the system and the function will add ipv6 addresses to the network devices. But the first device which needs to have its ipv6 address setup is the loopback, unfortunatly this is not the case. So the loopback address is setup manually in the ipv6 init function. * With the network namespace, this ordering problem does not appears because notifier is already setup and active, so as soon as we register the loopback the ipv6 address is setup and it will be the first device.

2008-03-04[IPCONFIG]: The kernel gets no IP from some DHCP serversStephen Hemminger
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Based upon a patch by Marcel Wappler: This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers (i.e. in the Linksys WRT54Gv5) are very strict about the contents of the DHCPDISCOVER packet they receive from clients. Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and 'siaddr' MUST be set to '0'. These DHCP servers ignore Linux kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to '255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as 'dhclient' or 'udhcpc'). This leads to a not booting system. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-03-04rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustmentStefano Brivio
Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate() in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also add some comments and rename variables. This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with 802.11b only AP STAs.

2008-03-04[TCP]: TCP cubic v2.2Sangtae Ha
We have updated CUBIC to fix some issues with slow increase in large BDP networks. We also improved its convergence speed. The fix is in fact very simple -- the window increase limit of smax during the window probing phase (i.e., convex growth phase) is removed. We found that this does not affect TCP friendliness, but only improves its scalability. We have run some tests in our lab and also over the Internet path from NCSU to Japan.

2008-03-03[NETNS][IPV6] ip6_fib - add net to gc timer parameterDaniel Lezcano
The fib tables are now relative to the network namespace. When the garbage collector timer expires, we must have a network namespace parameter in order to retrieve the tables. For now this is the init_net, but we should be able to have a timer per namespace and use the timer callback parameter to pass the network namespace from the expired timer. The timer callback, fib6_run_gc, is actually used to be called synchronously by some functions and asynchronously when the timer expires. When the timer expires, the delay specified for fib6_run_gc parameter is always zero. So, I changed fib6_run_gc to not be a timer callback but a function called by the timer callback and I added a timer callback where its work is just to retrieve from the data arg of the timer the network namespace and call fib6_run_gc with zero expiring time and the network namespace parameters. That makes the code cleaner for the fib6_run_gc callers. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
