2008-12-29netns: foreach_netdev_safe is insufficient in default_device_exitEric W. Biederman
During network namespace teardown we either move or delete all of the network devices associated with a network namespace. In the case of veth devices deleting one will also delete it's pair device. If both devices are in the same network namespace then for_each_netdev_safe is insufficient as next may point to the second veth device we have deleted. To avoid problems I do what we do in __rtnl_kill_links and restart the scan of the device list, after we have deleted a device. Currently dev_change_netnamespace does not appear to suffer from this problem, but wireless devices are also paired and likely should be moved between network namespaces together. So I have errored on the side of caution and restart the scan of the network devices in that case as well. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-12-26gro: Fix potential use after freeHerbert Xu
The initial skb may have been freed after napi_gro_complete in napi_gro_receive if it was merged into an existing packet. Thus we cannot check same_flow (which indicates whether it was merged) after calling napi_gro_complete. This patch fixes this by saving the same_flow status before the call to napi_gro_complete.

2008-12-26net: Init NAPI dev_list on napi_delPeter P Waskiewicz Jr
The recent GRO patches introduced the NAPI removal of devices in free_netdev. For drivers that can change the number of queues during driver operation, the NAPI infrastructure doesn't allow the freeing and re-addition of NAPI entities without reloading the driver. This change reinitializes the dev_list in each NAPI struct on delete, instead of just deleting it (and assigning the list pointers to POISON). Drivers that wish to remove/re-add NAPI will need to re-initialize the netdev napi_list after removing all NAPI instances, before re-adding NAPI devices again.

2008-12-25tcp: Always set urgent pointer if it's beyond snd_nxtHerbert Xu
Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the sequence number of a packet. This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification (though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible. Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up. Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data. Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted. This way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet. The only potential downside is that applications on the remote end may see multiple SIGURG notifications. However, this would occur anyway with other TCP stacks. More importantly, the outcome of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since the signal itself does not carry any information other than the fact that we're in urgent mode.

2008-12-19mac80211: implement dynamic power saveKalle Valo
This patch implements dynamic power save for mac80211. Basically it means enabling power save mode after an idle period. Implementing it dynamically gives a good compromise of low power consumption and low latency. Some hardware have support for this in firmware, but some require the host to do it. The dynamic power save is implemented by adding an timeout to ieee80211_subif_start_xmit(). The timeout can be enabled from userspace with Wireless Extensions. For example, the command below enables the dynamic power save and sets the time timeout to 500 ms: iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m Power save now only works with devices which handle power save in firmware. It's also disabled by default and the heuristics when and how to enable is considered as a policy decision and will be left for the userspace to handle. In case the firmware has support for this, drivers can disable this feature with IEEE80211_HW_NO_STACK_DYNAMIC_PS. Big thanks to Johannes Berg for the help with the design and code.

2008-12-16ipv6: fix the return interface index when get it while no message is receivedYang Hongyang
When get receiving interface index while no message is received, the the value seted with setsockopt() should be returned. RFC 3542: Issuing getsockopt() for the above options will return the sticky option value i.e., the value set with setsockopt(). If no sticky option value has been set getsockopt() will return the following values: - For the IPV6_PKTINFO option, it will return an in6_pktinfo structure with ipi6_addr being in6addr_any and ipi6_ifindex being zero.

2008-12-16ipv6: Add IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option support to setsockopt()Yang Hongyang
There are three reasons for me to add this support: 1.When no interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky optionis is used. RFC3542: 6.7. Summary of Outgoing Interface Selection This document and [RFC-3493] specify various methods that affect the selection of the packet's outgoing interface. This subsection summarizes the ordering among those in order to ensure deterministic behavior. For a given outgoing packet on a given socket, the outgoing interface is determined in the following order: 1. if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data item, the interface is used. 2. otherwise, if an interface is specified in an IPV6_PKTINFO sticky option, the interface is used. 2.When no IPV6_PKTINFO ancillary data is received,getsockopt() should return the sticky option value which set with setsockopt(). RFC 3542: Issuing getsockopt() for the above options will return the sticky option value i.e., the value set with setsockopt(). If no sticky option value has been set getsockopt() will return the following values: 3.Make the setsockopt implementation POSIX compliant.
