netns: constify net_hash_mix() and various callers

2015-03-19T02:00:34+00:00

const qualifiers ease code review by making clear
which objects are not written in a function.

ip: Move checksum convert defines to inet

2015-01-06T03:44:46+00:00

Move convert_csum from udp_sock to inet_sock. This allows the
possibility that we can use convert checksum for different types
of sockets and also allows convert checksum to be enabled from
inet layer (what we'll want to do when enabling IP_CHECKSUM cmsg).

udp: Add support for doing checksum unnecessary conversion

2014-09-02T04:36:28+00:00

Add support for doing CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE
conversion in UDP tunneling path.

In the normal UDP path, we call skb_checksum_try_convert after locating
the UDP socket. The check is that checksum conversion is enabled for
the socket (new flag in UDP socket) and that checksum field is
non-zero.

In the UDP GRO path, we call skb_gro_checksum_try_convert after
checksum is validated and checksum field is non-zero. Since this is
already in GRO we assume that checksum conversion is always wanted.

net: Make enabling of zero UDP6 csums more restrictive

2014-05-23T20:28:53+00:00

RFC 6935 permits zero checksums to be used in IPv6 however this is
recommended only for certain tunnel protocols, it does not make
checksums completely optional like they are in IPv4.

This patch restricts the use of IPv6 zero checksums that was previously
intoduced. no_check6_tx and no_check6_rx have been added to control
the use of checksums in UDP6 RX and TX path. The normal
sk_no_check_{rx,tx} settings are not used (this avoids ambiguity when
dealing with a dual stack socket).

A helper function has been added (udp_set_no_check6) which can be
called by tunnel impelmentations to all zero checksums (send on the
socket, and accept them as valid).

udp: add encap_destroy callback

2013-03-20T16:10:38+00:00

Users of udp encapsulation currently have an encap_rcv callback which they can
use to hook into the udp receive path.

In situations where a encapsulation user allocates resources associated with a
udp encap socket, it may be convenient to be able to also hook the proto
.destroy operation.  For example, if an encap user holds a reference to the
udp socket, the destroy hook might be used to relinquish this reference.

This patch adds a socket destroy hook into udp, which is set and enabled
in the same way as the existing encap_rcv hook.

net: Add support for hardware-offloaded encapsulation

2012-12-09T05:20:28+00:00

This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx
checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE).

For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits
in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the
skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will
use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware.

For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the
skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.
In that case the protocol driver should push the decapsulated packet up
to the stack, again with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In ether case, the protocol
driver should set the skb->encapsulation flag back to zero. Finally the
protocol driver should have NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag set in its features.

udp: bind() optimisation

2009-11-11T04:54:38+00:00

UDP bind() can be O(N^2) in some pathological cases.

Thanks to secondary hash tables, we can make it O(N)

udp: secondary hash on (local port, local address)

2009-11-09T04:53:06+00:00

Extends udp_table to contain a secondary hash table.

socket anchor for this second hash is free, because UDP
doesnt use skc_bind_node : We define an union to hold
both skc_bind_node & a new hlist_nulls_node udp_portaddr_node

udp_lib_get_port() inserts sockets into second hash chain
(additional cost of one atomic op)

udp_lib_unhash() deletes socket from second hash chain
(additional cost of one atomic op)

Note : No spinlock lockdep annotation is needed, because
lock for the secondary hash chain is always get after
lock for primary hash chain.

udp: split sk_hash into two u16 hashes

2009-11-09T04:53:05+00:00

Union sk_hash with two u16 hashes for udp (no extra memory taken)

One 16 bits hash on (local port) value (the previous udp 'hash')

One 16 bits hash on (local address, local port) values, initialized
but not yet used. This second hash is using jenkin hash for better
distribution.

Because the 'port' is xored later, a partial hash is performed
on local address + net_hash_mix(net)
