net: PPPoPNS and PPPoLAC fixes.

net: Fix a potential deadlock while releasing PPPoLAC/PPPoPNS socket.

PPP driver guarantees that no thread will be executing start_xmit() after
returning from ppp_unregister_channel(). To achieve this, a spinlock (downl)
is used. In pppolac_release(), ppp_unregister_channel() is called after sk_udp
is locked. At the same time, another thread might be running in pppolac_xmit()
with downl. Thus a deadlock will occur if the thread tries to lock sk_udp.
The same situation might happen on sk_raw in pppopns_release().

net: Force PPPoLAC and PPPoPNS to bind an interface before creating PPP channel.

It is common to manipulate the routing table after configuring PPP device.
Since both PPPoLAC and PPPoPNS run over IP, care must be taken to make sure
that there is no loop in the routing table.
Although this can be done by adding a host route, it might still cause
problems when the interface is down for some reason.

To solve this, this patch forces both drivers to bind an interface before
creating PPP channel, so the system will not re-route the tunneling sockets
to another interface when the original one is down. Another benefit is that
now the host route is no longer required, so there is no need to remove it
when PPP channel is closed.

net: Avoid sleep-inside-spinlock in PPPoLAC and PPPoPNS.

Since recv() and xmit() are called with a spinlock held, routines which might
sleep cannot be used. This issue is solved by following changes:

Incoming packets are now processed in backlog handler, recv_core(), instead of
recv(). Since backlog handler is always executed with socket spinlock held, the
requirement of ppp_input() is still satisfied.

Outgoing packets are now processed in workqueue handler, xmit_core(), instead of
xmit(). Note that kernel_sendmsg() is no longer used to prevent touching dead
sockets.

In release(), lock_sock() and pppox_unbind_sock() ensure that no thread is in
recv_core() or xmit(). Then socket handlers are restored before release_sock(),
so no packets will leak in backlog queue.

net: Fix msg_iovlen in PPPoLAC and PPPoPNS.

Although any positive value should work (which is always true in both drivers),
the correct value should be 1.

Base versions handle constant folding now.  For headers exposed to

include: Remove unnecessary inclusions of asm/semaphore.h

2008-04-19T02:16:54+00:00

None of these files use any of the functionality promised by
asm/semaphore.h.  It's possible that they (or some user of them) rely
on it dragging in some unrelated header file, but I can't build all
these files, so we'll have to fix any build failures as they come up.

[NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.

2007-10-10T23:49:07+00:00

This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

[L2TP]: Changes to existing ppp and socket kernel headers for L2TP

2007-07-11T05:15:58+00:00

Add struct sockaddr_pppol2tp to carry L2TP-specific address
information for the PPPoX (PPPoL2TP) socket. Unfortunately we can't
use the union inside struct sockaddr_pppox because the L2TP-specific
data is larger than the current size of the union and we must preserve
the size of struct sockaddr_pppox for binary compatibility.

Also add a PPPIOCGL2TPSTATS ioctl to allow userspace to obtain
L2TP counters and state from the kernel.

Add new if_pppol2tp.h header.

The attached patch by Michael Milner adds support for using iptables and
ip6tables on bridged traffic encapsulated in ppoe frames, similar to
what's already supported for vlan.
