2005-09-06[PATCH] WE-19 for kernel 2.6.13Jean Tourrilhes
Hi Jeff, This is version 19 of the Wireless Extensions. It was supposed to be the fallback of the WPA API changes, but people seem quite happy about it (especially Jouni), so the patch is rather small. The patch has been fully tested with 2.6.13 and various wireless drivers, and is in its final version. Would you mind pushing that into Linus's kernel so that the driver and the apps can take advantage ot it ? It includes : o iwstat improvement (explicit dBm). This is the result of long discussions with Dan Williams, the authors of NetworkManager. Thanks to him for all the fruitful feedback. o remove pointer from event stream. I was not totally sure if this pointer was 32-64 bits clean, so I'd rather remove it and be at peace with it. o remove linux header from wireless.h. This has long been requested by people writting user space apps, now it's done, and it was not even painful. o final deprecation of spy_offset. You did not like it, it's now gone for good. o Start deprecating dev->get_wireless_stats -> debloat netdev o Add "check" version of event macros for ieee802.11 stack. Jiri Benc doesn't like the current macros, we aim to please ;-) All those changes, except the last one, have been bit-roting on my web pages for a while... Patches for most kernel drivers will follow. Patches for the Orinoco and the HostAP drivers have been sent to their respective maintainers. Have fun...

2005-09-05[TCP]: Fix TCP_OFF() bug check introduced by previous change.Herbert Xu
The TCP_OFF assignment at the bottom of that if block can indeed set TCP_OFF without setting TCP_PAGE. Since there is not much to be gained from avoiding this situation, we might as well just zap the offset. The following patch should fix it.

2005-09-05[NET]: 2.6.13 breaks libpcap (and tcpdump)Herbert Xu
Patrick McHardy says: Never mind, I got it, we never fall through to the second switch statement anymore. I think we could simply break when load_pointer returns NULL. The switch statement will fall through to the default case and return 0 for all cases but 0 > k >= SKF_AD_OFF. Here's a patch to do just that. I left BPF_MSH alone because it's really a hack to calculate the IP header length, which makes no sense when applied to the special data.

2005-09-01[TCP]: Fix sk_forward_alloc underflow in tcp_sendmsgHerbert Xu
I've finally found a potential cause of the sk_forward_alloc underflows that people have been reporting sporadically. When tcp_sendmsg tacks on extra bits to an existing TCP_PAGE we don't check sk_forward_alloc even though a large amount of time may have elapsed since we allocated the page. In the mean time someone could've come along and liberated packets and reclaimed sk_forward_alloc memory. This patch makes tcp_sendmsg check sk_forward_alloc every time as we do in do_tcp_sendpages.

2005-09-01[IPV6]: Repair Incoming Interface Handling for Raw Socket.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki
Due to changes to enforce checking interface bindings, sockets did not see loopback packets bound for our local address on our interface. e.g.) When we ping6 fe80::1%eth0, skb->dev points loopback_dev while IP6CB(skb)->iif indicates eth0. This patch fixes the issue by using appropriate incoming interface, in the sense of scoping architecture. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-09-01[CRYPTO]: crypto_free_tfm() callers no longer need to check for NULLJesper Juhl
Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in, there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL. This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the crypto_free_tfm bits. I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch applied boots and runs just fine. When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the following comments : J. Bruce Fields commented "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b." Sridhar Samudrala said "sctp change looks fine." Herbert Xu signed off on the patch. So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.

2005-08-29[CCID3]: Call sk->sk_write_space(sk) when receiving a feedback packetArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This makes the send rate calculations behave way more closely to what is specified, with the jitter previously seen on x and x_recv disappearing completely on non lossy setups. This resembles the tcp_data_snd_check code, that possibly we'll end up using in DCCP as well, perhaps moving this code to inet_connection_sock. For now I'm doing the simplest implementation tho.

2005-08-29[DCCP]: Introduce DCCP_SOCKOPT_PACKET_SIZEArnaldo Carvalho de Melo

2005-08-29[DCCP]: Introduce dccp_tfrc_lib module with net/dccp/ccids/lib/*.cArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
I'll now take a look at the other proposed TFRC DCCP CCIDs to find more code that is now in ccid3.c and move to this module, the loss event rate, calc_X, etc most probably will be moved there. The main goal of these changes is to pave the way for the implementation of more TFRC based DCCP CCIDs and to shrink ccid3.c, reducing its complexity and helping in getting it rock solid.

2005-08-29[CCID3]: Reorganise timeval handlingArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Introducing functions to add to or subtract from a timeval variable and renaming now_delta to timeval_new_delta that calls do_gettimeofday and then timeval_delta, that should be used when there are several deltas made relative to the current time or setting variables to it, so as to avoid calling do_gettimeofday excessively. I'm leaving these "timeval_" prefixed funcions internal to DCCP for a while till we're sure there are no subtle bugs in it. It also is more correct as it checks if the number of usecs added to or subtracted from a tv_usec field is more than 2 seconds.
