ipv4: Invalidate nexthop cache nh_saddr more correctly.

2011-03-25T00:42:21+00:00

Any operation that:

1) Brings up an interface
2) Adds an IP address to an interface
3) Deletes an IP address from an interface

can potentially invalidate the nh_saddr value, requiring
it to be recomputed.

Perform the recomputation lazily using a generation ID.

ipvs: move struct netns_ipvs

2011-03-15T00:36:50+00:00

 	Remove include/net/netns/ip_vs.h because it depends on
structures from include/net/ip_vs.h. As ipvs is pointer in
struct net it is better to move struct netns_ipvs into
include/net/ip_vs.h, so that we can easily use other structures
in struct netns_ipvs.

netfilter: nf_conntrack_tstamp: add flow-based timestamp extension

2011-01-19T15:00:07+00:00

This patch adds flow-based timestamping for conntracks. This
conntrack extension is disabled by default. Basically, we use
two 64-bits variables to store the creation timestamp once the
conntrack has been confirmed and the other to store the deletion
time. This extension is disabled by default, to enable it, you
have to:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timestamp

This patch allows to save memory for user-space flow-based
loogers such as ulogd2. In short, ulogd2 does not need to
keep a hashtable with the conntrack in user-space to know
when they were created and destroyed, instead we use the
kernel timestamp. If we want to have a sane IPFIX implementation
in user-space, this nanosecs resolution timestamps are also
useful. Other custom user-space applications can benefit from
this via libnetfilter_conntrack.

This patch modifies the /proc output to display the delta time
in seconds since the flow start. You can also obtain the
flow-start date by means of the conntrack-tools.

netfilter: nf_conntrack: use is_vmalloc_addr()

2011-01-14T14:45:56+00:00

Use is_vmalloc_addr() in nf_ct_free_hashtable() and get rid of
the vmalloc flags to indicate that a hash table has been allocated
using vmalloc().

IPVS: netns, defense work timer.

2011-01-13T01:30:28+00:00

This patch makes defense work timer per name-space,
A net ptr had to be added to the ipvs struct,
since it's needed by defense_work_handler.

IPVS: netns, ip_vs_ctl local vars moved to ipvs struct.

2011-01-13T01:30:28+00:00

Moving global vars to ipvs struct, except for svc table lock.
Next patch for ctl will be drop-rate handling.

IPVS: netns, connection hash got net as param.

2011-01-13T01:30:28+00:00

Connection hash table is now name space aware.
i.e. net ptr >> 8 is xor:ed to the hash,
and this is the first param to be compared.
The net struct is 0xa40 in size ( a little bit smaller for 32 bit arch:s)
and cache-line aligned, so a ptr >> 5 might be a more clever solution ?

All lookups where net is compared uses net_eq() which returns 1 when netns
is disabled, and the compiler seems to do something clever in that case.

ip_vs_conn_fill_param() have *net as first param now.

Three new inlines added to keep conn struct smaller
when names space is disabled.
- ip_vs_conn_net()
- ip_vs_conn_net_set()
- ip_vs_conn_net_eq()

*v3
  moved net compare to the end in "fast path"

IPVS: netns, ip_vs_stats and its procfs

2011-01-13T01:30:28+00:00

The statistic counter locks for every packet are now removed,
and that statistic is now per CPU, i.e. no locks needed.
However summing is made in ip_vs_est into ip_vs_stats struct
which is moved to ipvs struc.

procfs, ip_vs_stats now have a "per cpu" count and a grand total.
A new function seq_file_single_net() in ip_vs.h created for handling of
single_open_net() since it does not place net ptr in a struct, like others.
