ipv4: reintroduce route cache garbage collector

2012-01-06T22:14:10+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9f28a2fc0bd77511f649c0a788c7bf9a5fd04edb ]

Commit 2c8cec5c10b (ipv4: Cache learned PMTU information in inetpeer)
removed IP route cache garbage collector a bit too soon, as this gc was
responsible for expired routes cleanup, releasing their neighbour
reference.

As pointed out by Robert Gladewitz, recent kernels can fill and exhaust
their neighbour cache.

Reintroduce the garbage collection, since we'll have to wait our
neighbour lookups become refcount-less to not depend on this stuff.

ipv4: flush route cache after change accept_local

2012-01-06T22:14:09+00:00

[ Upstream commit d01ff0a049f749e0bf10a35bb23edd012718c8c2 ]

After reset ipv4_devconf->data[IPV4_DEVCONF_ACCEPT_LOCAL] to 0,
we should flush route cache, or it will continue receive packets with local
source address, which should be dropped.

net: have ipconfig not wait if no dev is available

2012-01-06T22:14:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit cd7816d14953c8af910af5bb92f488b0b277e29d ]

previous commit 3fb72f1e6e6165c5f495e8dc11c5bbd14c73385c
makes IP-Config wait for carrier on at least one network device.

Before waiting (predefined value 120s), check that at least one device
was successfully brought up. Otherwise (e.g. buggy bootloader
which does not set the MAC address) there is no point in waiting
for carrier.

ipip, sit: copy parms.name after register_netdevice

2012-01-06T22:13:45+00:00

commit 72b36015ba43a3cca5303f5534d2c3e1899eae29 upstream.

Same fix as 731abb9cb2 for ipip and sit tunnel.
Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in
ipip_tunnel_locate and ipip6_tunnel_locate, because register_netdevice
will now create a valid name, however the tunnel keeps a copy of the
name in the private parms structure. Fix this by copying the name back
after register_netdevice has successfully returned.

This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show:

$ sudo ip tunnel add mode ipip remote 10.2.20.211
$ ip tunnel
tunl0: ip/ip  remote any  local any  ttl inherit  nopmtudisc
tunl%d: ip/ip  remote 10.2.20.211  local any  ttl inherit
$ sudo ip tunnel add mode sit remote 10.2.20.212
$ ip tunnel
sit0: ipv6/ip  remote any  local any  ttl 64  nopmtudisc 6rd-prefix 2002::/16
sit%d: ioctl 89f8 failed: No such device
sit%d: ipv6/ip  remote 10.2.20.212  local any  ttl inherit

tcp: properly update lost_cnt_hint during shifting

2011-11-11T17:36:28+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1e5289e121372a3494402b1b131b41bfe1cf9b7f ]

lost_skb_hint is used by tcp_mark_head_lost() to mark the first unhandled skb.
lost_cnt_hint is the number of packets or sacked packets before the lost_skb_hint;
When shifting a skb that is before the lost_skb_hint, if tcp_is_fack() is ture,
the skb has already been counted in the lost_cnt_hint; if tcp_is_fack() is false,
tcp_sacktag_one() will increase the lost_cnt_hint. So tcp_shifted_skb() does not
need to adjust the lost_cnt_hint by itself. When shifting a skb that is equal to
lost_skb_hint, the shifted packets will not be counted by tcp_mark_head_lost().
So tcp_shifted_skb() should adjust the lost_cnt_hint even tcp_is_fack(tp) is true.

tcp: properly handle md5sig_pool references

2011-11-11T17:36:27+00:00

[ Upstream commit 260fcbeb1ae9e768a44c9925338fbacb0d7e5ba9 ]

tcp_v4_clear_md5_list() assumes that multiple tcp md5sig peers
only hold one reference to md5sig_pool. but tcp_v4_md5_do_add()
increases use count of md5sig_pool for each peer. This patch
makes tcp_v4_md5_do_add() only increases use count for the first
tcp md5sig peer.

tcp: initialize variable ecn_ok in syncookies path

2011-10-03T18:40:54+00:00

[ Upstream commit f0e3d0689da401f7d1981c2777a714ba295ea5ff ]

Using a gcc 4.4.3, warnings are emitted for a possibly uninitialized use
of ecn_ok.

This can happen if cookie_check_timestamp() returns due to not having
seen a timestamp.  Defaulting to ecn off seems like a reasonable thing
to do in this case, so initialized ecn_ok to false.

tcp: fix validation of D-SACK

[ Upstream commit f779b2d60ab95c17f1e025778ed0df3ec2f05d75 ]

D-SACK is allowed to reside below snd_una. But the corresponding check
in tcp_is_sackblock_valid() is the exact opposite. It looks like a typo.
