Michael Kerrisk a89b47639f ipv4: enable getsockopt() for IP_NODEFRAG
While integrating your man-pages patch for IP_NODEFRAG, I noticed
that this option is settable by setsockopt(), but not gettable by
getsockopt(). I suppose this is not intended. The (untested,
trivial) patch below adds getsockopt() support.

Jiri Olsa 7b2ff18ee7 net - IP_NODEFRAG option for IPv4 socket
this patch is implementing IP_NODEFRAG option for IPv4 socket.
The reason is, there's no other way to send out the packet with user
customized header of the reassembly part.

Eric Dumazet 592fcb9dfa ip: ip_ra_control() rcu fix
commit 66018506e1 (ip: Router Alert RCU conversion) introduced RCU
lookups to ip_call_ra_chain(). It missed proper deinit phase :
When ip_ra_control() deletes an ip_ra_chain, it should make sure
ip_call_ra_chain() users can not start to use socket during the rcu
grace period. It should also delay the sock_put() after the grace
period, or we risk a premature socket freeing and corruptions, as
raw sockets are not rcu protected yet.

This delay avoids using expensive atomic_inc_not_zero() in
ip_call_ra_chain().

When queueing a skb to socket, we can immediately release its dst if

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Stephen Hemminger d218d11133 tcp: Generalized TTL Security Mechanism
This patch adds the kernel portions needed to implement
RFC 5082 Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM).
It is a lightweight security measure against forged
packets causing DoS attacks (for BGP). 

This is already implemented the same way in BSD kernels.
For the necessary Quagga patch 
  http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/quagga/dev/17389

Description from Cisco
  http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t7/feature/guide/gt_btsh.html

It does add one byte to each socket structure, but I did
a little rearrangement to reuse a hole (on 64 bit), but it
does grow the structure on 32 bit

This should be documented on ip(4) man page and the Glibc in.h
file also needs update.  IPV6_MINHOPLIMIT should also be added
(although BSD doesn't support that).  

Only TCP is supported, but could also be added to UDP, DCCP, SCTP
if desired.

ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls.

This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader
could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop.

Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put().

If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index()
function to avoid touching dev refcount.

Eric Dumazet c720c7e838 inet: rename some inet_sock fields
In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones
for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch.

Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first
read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt
to a separate cache line (only written by rx path)

This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr,
sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these
fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes.

Nivedita Singhvi f771bef980 ipv4: New multicast-all socket option
After some discussion offline with Christoph Lameter and David Stevens
regarding multicast behaviour in Linux, I'm submitting a slightly
modified patch from the one Christoph submitted earlier.

This patch provides a new socket option IP_MULTICAST_ALL.

In this case, default behaviour is _unchanged_ from the current
Linux standard. The socket option is set by default to provide
original behaviour. Sockets wishing to receive data only from
multicast groups they join explicitly will need to clear this
socket option.

David S. Miller 951e07c930 [IPV4]: Fix byte value boundary check in do_ip_getsockopt().
This fixes kernel bugzilla 10371.

As reported by M.Piechaczek@osmosys.tv, if we try to grab a
char sized socket option value, as in:

  unsigned char ttl = 255;
  socklen_t     len = sizeof(ttl);
  setsockopt(socket, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MULTICAST_TTL, &ttl, &len);

  getsockopt(socket, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MULTICAST_TTL, &ttl, &len);

The ttl returned will be wrong on big-endian, and on both little-
endian and big-endian the next three bytes in userspace are written
with garbage.

It's because of this test in do_ip_getsockopt():

	if (len < sizeof(int) && len > 0 && val>=0 && val<255) {

It should allow a 'val' of 255 to pass here, but it doesn't so it
copies a full 'int' back to userspace.

On little-endian that will write the correct value into the location
but it spams on the next three bytes in userspace.  On big endian it
writes the wrong value into the location and spams the next three
bytes.

David S. Miller e4f8b5d4ed [IPV4]: Remove IP_TOS setting privilege checks.
Various RFCs have all sorts of things to say about the CS field of the
DSCP value.  In particular they try to make the distinction between
values that should be used by "user applications" and things like
routing daemons.

This seems to have influenced the CAP_NET_ADMIN check which exists for
IP_TOS socket option settings, but in fact it has an off-by-one error
so it wasn't allowing CS5 which is meant for "user applications" as
well.

Further adding to the inconsistency and brokenness here, IPV6 does not
validate the DSCP values specified for the IPV6_TCLASS socket option.

The real actual uses of these TOS values are system specific in the
final analysis, and these RFC recommendations are just that, "a
recommendation".  In fact the standards very purposefully use
"SHOULD" and "SHOULD NOT" when describing how these values can be
used.

In the final analysis the only clean way to provide consistency here
is to remove the CAP_NET_ADMIN check.  The alternatives just don't
work out:

1) If we add the CAP_NET_ADMIN check to ipv6, this can break existing
   setups.

2) If we just fix the off-by-one error in the class comparison in
   IPV4, certain DSCP values can be used in IPV6 but not IPV4 by
   default.  So people will just ask for a sysctl asking to
   override that.

I checked several other freely available kernel trees and they
do not make any privilege checks in this area like we do.  For
the BSD stacks, this goes back all the way to Stevens Volume 2
and beyond.

a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

John Heffner 628a5c5618 [INET]: Add IP(V6)_PMTUDISC_RPOBE
Add IP(V6)_PMTUDISC_PROBE value for IP(V6)_MTU_DISCOVER.  This option forces
us not to fragment, but does not make use of the kernel path MTU discovery.
That is, it allows for user-mode MTU probing (or, packetization-layer path
MTU discovery).  This is particularly useful for diagnostic utilities, like
traceroute/tracepath.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 27a884dc3c [SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)

Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo bd82393ca2 [SK_BUFF]: More skb_reset_transport_header conversions
These are a bit more subtle, they are of this type:

-       skb->h.raw = payload;
        __skb_pull(skb, payload - skb->data);
+       skb_reset_transport_header(skb);

__skb_pull results in:

skb->data = skb->data + payload - skb->data;
skb->data = payload;

So after __skb_pull we have skb->data pointing to payload and we can
just call skb_reset_transport_header(skb), that will do:

skb->h.raw = payload;

The others are similar, allowing us to get rid of some more cases where a
pointer was being attributed to the layer headers.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).
