2010-05-21net: Expose all network devices in a namespaces in sysfsEric W. Biederman
This reverts commit aaf8cdc34ddba08122f02217d9d684e2f9f5d575. Drivers like the ipw2100 call device_create_group when they are initialized and device_remove_group when they are shutdown. Moving them between namespaces deletes their sysfs groups early. In particular the following call chain results. netdev_unregister_kobject -> device_del -> kobject_del -> sysfs_remove_dir With sysfs_remove_dir recursively deleting all of it's subdirectories, and nothing adding them back. Ouch! Therefore we need to call something that ultimate calls sysfs_mv_dir as that sysfs function can move sysfs directories between namespaces without deleting their subdirectories or their contents. Allowing us to avoid placing extra boiler plate into every driver that does something interesting with sysfs. Currently the function that provides that capability is device_rename. That is the code works without nasty side effects as originally written. So remove the misguided fix for moving devices between namespaces. The bug in the kobject layer that inspired it has now been recognized and fixed. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Acked-by: David S.

2010-05-21netlink: Implment netlink_broadcast_filteredEric W. Biederman
When netlink sockets are used to convey data that is in a namespace we need a way to select a subset of the listening sockets to deliver the packet to. For the network namespace we have been doing this by only transmitting packets in the correct network namespace. For data belonging to other namespaces netlink_bradcast_filtered provides a mechanism that allows us to examine the destination socket and to decide if we should transmit the specified packet to it.

2010-05-21net/sysfs: Fix the bitrot in network device kobject namespace supportEric W. Biederman
I had a couple of stupid bugs in: netns: Teach network device kobjects which namespace they are in. - I duplicated the Kconfig for the NET_NS - The build was broken when sysfs was not compiled in The sysfs breakage is because after I moved the operations for the sysfs to the kobject layer, to make things cleaner I forgot to move the ifdefs. Opps. I'm not quite certain how I got introduced a second NET_NS Kconfig, but it was probably a 3 way merge somewhere along the way that did not notice that the NET_NS Kconfig option had mvoed and thout that was a bug. It probably slipped in because it used to be the sysfs patches were the first patches in my network namespace patches. Some things just don't go like you would expect. Neither of these bugs actually affect anything in the common case but they should be fixed. Thanks to Serge for noticing they were present. Reported-by: Serge E.

2010-05-21netns: Teach network device kobjects which namespace they are in.Eric W. Biederman
The problem. Network devices show up in sysfs and with the network namespace active multiple devices with the same name can show up in the same directory, ouch! To avoid that problem and allow existing applications in network namespaces to see the same interface that is currently presented in sysfs, this patch enables the tagging directory support in sysfs. By using the network namespace pointers as tags to separate out the the sysfs directory entries we ensure that we don't have conflicts in the directories and applications only see a limited set of the network devices.

2010-05-17net: Add netlink support for virtual port management (was iovnl)Scott Feldman
Add new netdev ops ndo_{set|get}_vf_port to allow setting of port-profile on a netdev interface. Extends netlink socket RTM_SETLINK/ RTM_GETLINK with two new sub msgs called IFLA_VF_PORTS and IFLA_PORT_SELF (added to end of IFLA_cmd list). These are both nested atrtibutes using this layout: [IFLA_NUM_VF] [IFLA_VF_PORTS] [IFLA_VF_PORT] [IFLA_PORT_*], ... [IFLA_VF_PORT] [IFLA_PORT_*], ... ... [IFLA_PORT_SELF] [IFLA_PORT_*], ... These attributes are design to be set and get symmetrically. VF_PORTS is a list of VF_PORTs, one for each VF, when dealing with an SR-IOV device. PORT_SELF is for the PF of the SR-IOV device, in case it wants to also have a port-profile, or for the case where the VF==PF, like in enic patch 2/2 of this patch set. A port-profile is used to configure/enable the external switch virtual port backing the netdev interface, not to configure the host-facing side of the netdev. A port-profile is an identifier known to the switch. How port- profiles are installed on the switch or how available port-profiles are made know to the host is outside the scope of this patch. There are two types of port-profiles specs in the netlink msg. The first spec is for 802.1Qbg (pre-)standard, VDP protocol. The second spec is for devices that run a similar protocol as VDP but in firmware, thus hiding the protocol details. In either case, the specs have much in common and makes sense to define the netlink msg as the union of the two specs. For example, both specs have a notition of associating/deassociating a port-profile. And both specs require some information from the hypervisor manager, such as client port instance ID. The general flow is the port-profile is applied to a host netdev interface using RTM_SETLINK, the receiver of the RTM_SETLINK msg communicates with the switch, and the switch virtual port backing the host netdev interface is configured/enabled based on the settings defined by the port-profile. What those settings comprise, and how those settings are managed is again outside the scope of this patch, since this patch only deals with the first step in the flow.

2010-05-17tcp: tcp_synack_options() fix Eric Dumazet
Commit 33ad798c924b4a (tcp: options clean up) introduced a problem if MD5+SACK+timestamps were used in initial SYN message. Some stacks (old linux for example) try to negotiate MD5+SACK+TSTAMP sessions, but since 40 bytes of tcp options space are not enough to store all the bits needed, we chose to disable timestamps in this case. We send a SYN-ACK _without_ timestamp option, but socket has timestamps enabled and all further outgoing messages contain a TS block, all with the initial timestamp of the remote peer. Fix is to really disable timestamps option for the whole session. Reported-by: Bijay Singh <Bijay.Singh@guavus.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

New skb_dst_set_noref() helper to set an notrefcounted dst on a skb. (with lockdep check) skb_dst_drop() drops a reference only if skb dst was refcounted. skb_dst_force() helper is used to force a refcount on dst, when skb is queued and not anymore RCU protected. Use skb_dst_force() in __sk_add_backlog(), __dev_xmit_skb() if !IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE or skb enqueued on qdisc queue, in sock_queue_rcv_skb(), in __nf_queue().

2010-05-17procfs: Push down the bkl from ioctlFrederic Weisbecker
Push down the bkl from procfs's ioctl main handler to its users. Only three procfs users implement an ioctl (non unlocked) handler. Turn them into unlocked_ioctl and push down the Devil inside. v2: PDE(inode)->data doesn't need to be under bkl v3: And don't forget to git-add the result v4: Use wrappers to pushdown instead of an invasive and error prone handlers surgery.

2010-05-16rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetricChris Wright
Now we have a set of nested attributes: IFLA_VFINFO_LIST (NESTED) IFLA_VF_INFO (NESTED) IFLA_VF_MAC IFLA_VF_VLAN IFLA_VF_TX_RATE This allows a single set to operate on multiple attributes if desired. Among other things, it means a dump can be replayed to set state. The current interface has yet to be released, so this seems like something to consider for 2.6.34.
