net: proc: change proc_net_remove to remove_proc_entry

2013-02-18T19:53:08+00:00

proc_net_remove is only used to remove proc entries
that under /proc/net,it's not a general function for
removing proc entries of netns. if we want to remove
some proc entries which under /proc/net/stat/, we still
need to call remove_proc_entry.

this patch use remove_proc_entry to replace proc_net_remove.
we can remove proc_net_remove after this patch.

net: proc: change proc_net_fops_create to proc_create

2013-02-18T19:53:08+00:00

Right now, some modules such as bonding use proc_create
to create proc entries under /proc/net/, and other modules
such as ipv4 use proc_net_fops_create.

It looks a little chaos.this patch changes all of
proc_net_fops_create to proc_create. we can remove
proc_net_fops_create after this patch.

ipv6 anycast: Convert ipv6_sk_ac_lock to spinlock.

2013-01-31T03:41:13+00:00

Since all users are write-lock, it does not make sense to use
rwlock here.  Use simple spinlock.

ipv6: avoid taking locks at socket dismantle

2012-12-05T21:01:28+00:00

ipv6_sock_mc_close() is called for ipv6 sockets at close time, and most
of them don't use multicast.

Add a test to avoid contention on a shared spinlock.

Same heuristic applies for ipv6_sock_ac_close(), to avoid contention
on a shared rwlock.

net: Allow userns root to control ipv6

2012-11-19T01:32:45+00:00

Allow an unpriviled user who has created a user namespace, and then
created a network namespace to effectively use the new network
namespace, by reducing capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) and
capable(CAP_NET_RAW) calls to be ns_capable(net->user_ns,
CAP_NET_ADMIN), or capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW) calls.

Settings that merely control a single network device are allowed.
Either the network device is a logical network device where
restrictions make no difference or the network device is hardware NIC
that has been explicity moved from the initial network namespace.

In general policy and network stack state changes are allowed while
resource control is left unchanged.

Allow the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl to add ipv6 addresses.
Allow the SIOCDIFADDR ioctl to delete ipv6 addresses.
Allow the SIOCADDRT ioctl to add ipv6 routes.
Allow the SIOCDELRT ioctl to delete ipv6 routes.

Allow creation of ipv6 raw sockets.

Allow setting the IPV6_JOIN_ANYCAST socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_FL_A_RENEW parameter of the IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR
socket option.

Allow setting the IPV6_TRANSPARENT socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_HOPOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_RTHDRDSTOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_DSTOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_IPSEC_POLICY socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_XFRM_POLICY socket option.

Allow sending packets with the IPV6_2292HOPOPTS control message.
Allow sending packets with the IPV6_2292DSTOPTS control message.
Allow sending packets with the IPV6_RTHDRDSTOPTS control message.

Allow setting the multicast routing socket options on non multicast
routing sockets.

Allow the SIOCADDTUNNEL, SIOCCHGTUNNEL, and SIOCDELTUNNEL ioctls for
setting up, changing and deleting tunnels over ipv6.

Allow the SIOCADDTUNNEL, SIOCCHGTUNNEL, SIOCDELTUNNEL ioctls for
setting up, changing and deleting ipv6 over ipv4 tunnels.

Allow the SIOCADDPRL, SIOCDELPRL, SIOCCHGPRL ioctls for adding,
deleting, and changing the potential router list for ISATAP tunnels.

ipv6: introduce ip6_rt_put()

2012-11-03T18:59:05+00:00

As suggested by Eric, we could introduce a helper function
for ipv6 too, to avoid checking if rt is NULL before
dst_release().

ipv6: Remove never used function inet6_ac_check().

2012-02-01T21:14:17+00:00

It went from unused, to commented out, and never changing after
that.

Just get rid of it, if someone wants it they can unearth it from
the history.

ipv6: Kill rt6i_dev and rt6i_expires defines.

2011-12-29T01:19:20+00:00

It just obscures that the netdevice pointer and the expires value are
implemented in the dst_entry sub-object of the ipv6 route.

And it makes grepping for dst_entry member uses much harder too.
