ipv6: enable IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR for getsockopt

2013-11-08T18:42:57+00:00

It is already possible to set/put/renew a label
with IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR and setsockopt. This patch
add the possibility to get information about this
label (current value, time before expiration, etc).

It helps application to take decision for a renew
or a release of the label.

v2:
 * Add spin_lock to prevent race condition
 * return -ENOENT if no result found
 * check if flr_action is GET

v3:
 * move the spin_lock to protect only the
   relevant code

ipv6: split inet6_hash_frag for netfilter and initialize secrets with net_get_random_once

2013-10-23T21:01:40+00:00

Defer the fragmentation hash secret initialization for IPv6 like the
previous patch did for IPv4.

Because the netfilter logic reuses the hash secret we have to split it
first. Thus introduce a new nf_hash_frag function which takes care to
seed the hash secret.

ipv6: split inet6_ehashfn to hash functions per compilation unit

2013-10-19T23:45:34+00:00

This patch splits the inet6_ehashfn into separate ones in
ipv6/inet6_hashtables.o and ipv6/udp.o to ease the introduction of
seperate secrets keys later.

ip*.h: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-09-21T18:01:38+00:00

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

ipv6: Convert use of typedef ctl_table to struct ctl_table

2013-06-20T06:18:07+00:00

This typedef is unnecessary and should just be removed.

net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.

2013-05-26T04:07:49+00:00

This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a
raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in
2011.

Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make
most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a
few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new
net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or
duplication of bugs in the future.

Caveats:

- Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO
  to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported.
- There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6;
  everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range.
- The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets
  properly.

Tested with a patched copy of ping6 and using raw socket calls.
Compiles and works with all of CONFIG_IPV6={n,m,y}.

ipv6: implement RFC3168 5.3 (ecn protection) for ipv6 fragmentation handling

2013-03-24T21:16:30+00:00

Hello!

After patch 1 got accepted to net-next I will also send a patch to
netfilter-devel to make the corresponding changes to the netfilter
reassembly logic.

Thanks,

  Hannes

[PATCH 2/2] ipv6: implement RFC3168 5.3 (ecn protection) for ipv6 fragmentation handling

This patch also ensures that INET_ECN_CE is propagated if one fragment
had the codepoint set.

ipv6: introdcue __ipv6_addr_needs_scope_id and ipv6_iface_scope_id helper functions

2013-03-08T17:29:22+00:00

__ipv6_addr_needs_scope_id checks if an ipv6 address needs to supply
a 'sin6_scope_id != 0'. 'sin6_scope_id != 0' was enforced in case
of link-local addresses. To support interface-local multicast these
checks had to be enhanced and are now consolidated into these new helper
functions.

v2:
a) migrated to struct ipv6_addr_props

v3:
a) reverted changes for ipv6_addr_props
b) test for address type instead of comparing scope

v4:
a) unchanged
