2005-06-22AUDIT: Wait for backlog to clear when generating messages.David Woodhouse
Add a gfp_mask to audit_log_start() and audit_log(), to reduce the amount of GFP_ATOMIC allocation -- most of it doesn't need to be GFP_ATOMIC. Also if the mask includes __GFP_WAIT, then wait up to 60 seconds for the auditd backlog to clear instead of immediately abandoning the message. The timeout should probably be made configurable, but for now it'll suffice that it only happens if auditd is actually running. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

2005-06-21AUDIT: Spawn kernel thread to list filter rules.David Woodhouse
If we have enough rules to fill the netlink buffer space, it'll deadlock because auditctl isn't ever actually going to read from the socket until we return, and we aren't going to return until it reads... so we spawn a kernel thread to spew out the list and then exit.

2005-06-20AUDIT: Report lookup flags with path/inode records.David Woodhouse
When LOOKUP_PARENT is used, the inode which results is not the inode found at the pathname. Report the flags so that this doesn't generate misleading audit records. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>

2005-06-18[IPV4]: [4/4] signed vs unsigned cleanup in net/ipv4/raw.cJesper Juhl
This patch changes the type of the third parameter 'length' of the raw_send_hdrinc() function from 'int' to 'size_t'. This makes sense since this function is only ever called from one location, and the value passed as the third parameter in that location is itself of type size_t, so this makes the recieving functions parameter type match. Also, inside raw_send_hdrinc() the 'length' variable is used in comparisons with unsigned values and passed as parameter to functions expecting unsigned values (it's used in a single comparison with a signed value, but that one can never actually be negative so the patch also casts that one to size_t to stop gcc worrying, and it is passed in a single instance to memcpy_fromiovecend() which expects a signed int, but as far as I can see that's not a problem since the value of 'length' shouldn't ever exceed the value of a signed int).

2005-06-18[IPV4]: [3/4] signed vs unsigned cleanup in net/ipv4/raw.cJesper Juhl
This patch changes the type of the local variable 'i' in raw_probe_proto_opt() from 'int' to 'unsigned int'. The only use of 'i' in this function is as a counter in a for() loop and subsequent index into the msg->msg_iov[] array. Since 'i' is compared in a loop to the unsigned variable msg->msg_iovlen gcc -W generates this warning : net/ipv4/raw.c:340: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned Changing 'i' to unsigned silences this warning and is safe since the array index can never be negative anyway, so unsigned int is the logical type to use for 'i' and also enables a larger msg_iov[] array (but I don't know if that will ever matter).

2005-06-18[IPV4]: [2/4] signed vs unsigned cleanup in net/ipv4/raw.cJesper Juhl
This patch gets rid of the following gcc -W warning in net/ipv4/raw.c : net/ipv4/raw.c:387: warning: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false Since 'len' is of type size_t it is unsigned and can thus never be <0, and since this is obvious from the function declaration just a few lines above I think it's ok to remove the pointless check for len<0.

2005-06-18[IPV4]: [1/4] signed vs unsigned cleanup in net/ipv4/raw.cJesper Juhl
This patch silences these two gcc -W warnings in net/ipv4/raw.c : net/ipv4/raw.c:517: warning: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression net/ipv4/raw.c:613: warning: signed and unsigned type in conditional expression It doesn't change the behaviour of the code, simply writes the conditional expression with plain 'if()' syntax instead of '? :' , but since this breaks it into sepperate statements gcc no longer complains about having both a signed and unsigned value in the same conditional expression.

2005-06-18[PKT_SCHED]: Transform fifo qdisc to use generic queue management interfaceThomas Graf
The simplicity of the fifo qdisc allows several qdisc operations to be redirected to the relevant queue management function directly. Saves a lot of code lines and gives the pfifo a byte based backlog. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-06-18[PKT_SCHED]: Generic queue management interface for qdiscs using internal ↵Thomas Graf
skb queues Implements an interface to be used by leaf qdiscs maintaining an internal skb queue. The interface maintains a backlog in bytes additionaly to the skb_queue_len() maintained by the queue itself. Relevant statistics get incremented automatically. Every function comes in two variants, one assuming Qdisc->q is used as queue and the second taking a sk_buff_head as argument. Be aware that, if you use multiple queues, you still have to maintain the Qdisc->q.qlen counter yourself. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-06-18[SCTP]: Replace spin_lock_irqsave with spin_lock_bhHerbert Xu
This patch replaces the spin_lock_irqsave call on the receive queue lock in SCTP with spin_lock_bh. Despite the proliferation of spin_lock_irqsave calls in this stack, it is only entered from the IPv4/IPv6 stack and user space. That is, it is never entered from hardirq context. The call in question is only called from recvmsg which means that IRQs aren't disabled. Therefore it is safe to replace it with spin_lock_bh.

2005-06-18[IPV4/IPV6]: Replace spin_lock_irq with spin_lock_bhHerbert Xu
In light of my recent patch to net/ipv4/udp.c that replaced the spin_lock_irq calls on the receive queue lock with spin_lock_bh, here is a similar patch for all other occurences of spin_lock_irq on receive/error queue locks in IPv4 and IPv6. In these stacks, we know that they can only be entered from user or softirq context. Therefore it's safe to disable BH only.

2005-06-18[IPSEC]: Add XFRMA_SA/XFRMA_POLICY for delete notificationHerbert Xu
This patch changes the format of the XFRM_MSG_DELSA and XFRM_MSG_DELPOLICY notification so that the main message sent is of the same format as that received by the kernel if the original message was via netlink. This also means that we won't lose the byid information carried in km_event. Since this user interface is introduced by Jamal's patch we can still afford to change it.

2005-06-18[NETLINK]: Introduce NLMSG_NEW macro to better handle netlink flagsThomas Graf
Introduces a new macro NLMSG_NEW which extends NLMSG_PUT but takes a flags argument. NLMSG_PUT stays there for compatibility but now calls NLMSG_NEW with flags == 0. NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER is renamed to NLMSG_NEW_ANSWER which now also takes a flags argument. Also converts the users of NLMSG_PUT_ANSWER to use NLMSG_NEW_ANSWER and fixes the two direct users of __nlmsg_put to either provide the flags or use NLMSG_NEW(_ANSWER).

2005-06-18[NETLINK]: Neighbour table configuration and statistics via rtnetlinkThomas Graf
To retrieve the neighbour tables send RTM_GETNEIGHTBL with the NLM_F_DUMP flag set. Every neighbour table configuration is spread over multiple messages to avoid running into message size limits on systems with many interfaces. The first message in the sequence transports all not device specific data such as statistics, configuration, and the default parameter set. This message is followed by 0..n messages carrying device specific parameter sets. Although the ordering should be sufficient, NDTA_NAME can be used to identify sequences. The initial message can be identified by checking for NDTA_CONFIG. The device specific messages do not contain this TLV but have NDTPA_IFINDEX set to the corresponding interface index. To change neighbour table attributes, send RTM_SETNEIGHTBL with NDTA_NAME set. Changeable attribute include NDTA_THRESH[1-3], NDTA_GC_INTERVAL, and all TLVs in NDTA_PARMS unless marked otherwise. Device specific parameter sets can be changed by setting NDTPA_IFINDEX to the interface index of the corresponding device. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-06-18[NETLINK] Routing attribute related shortcutsThomas Graf
RTA_GET_U(32|64)(tlv) Assumes TLV is a u32/u64 field and returns its value. RTA_GET_[M]SECS(tlv) Assumes TLV is a u64 and transports jiffies converted to seconds or milliseconds and returns its value. RTA_PUT_U(32|64)(skb, type, value) Appends %value as fixed u32/u64 to %skb as TLV %type. RTA_PUT_[M]SECS(skb, type, jiffies) Converts %jiffies to secs/msecs and appends it as u64 to %skb as TLV %type. RTA_PUT_STRING(skb, type, string) Appends %NUL terminated %string to %skb as TLV %type. RTA_NEST(skb, type) Starts a nested TLV %type and returns the nesting handle. RTA_NEST_END(skb, nesting_handle) Finishes the nested TLV %nesting_handle, must be called symmetric to RTA_NEST(). Returns skb->len RTA_NEST_CANCEL(skb, nesting_handle) Cancel the nested TLV %nesting_handle and trim nested TLV from skb again, returns -1.

2005-06-18[NET] Generalise tcp_listen_optArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
This chunks out the accept_queue and tcp_listen_opt code and moves them to net/core/request_sock.c and include/net/request_sock.h, to make it useful for other transport protocols, DCCP being the first one to use it.

2005-06-18[NET] Rename open_request to request_sockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Ok, this one just renames some stuff to have a better namespace and to dissassociate it from TCP: struct open_request -> struct request_sock tcp_openreq_alloc -> reqsk_alloc tcp_openreq_free -> reqsk_free tcp_openreq_fastfree -> __reqsk_free With this most of the infrastructure closely resembles a struct sock methods subset.

2005-06-18[NET] Generalise TCP's struct open_request minisock infrastructureArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Kept this first changeset minimal, without changing existing names to ease peer review. Basicaly tcp_openreq_alloc now receives the or_calltable, that in turn has two new members: ->slab, that replaces tcp_openreq_cachep ->obj_size, to inform the size of the openreq descendant for a specific protocol The protocol specific fields in struct open_request were moved to a class hierarchy, with the things that are common to all connection oriented PF_INET protocols in struct inet_request_sock, the TCP ones in tcp_request_sock, that is an inet_request_sock, that is an open_request. I.e. this uses the same approach used for the struct sock class hierarchy, with sk_prot indicating if the protocol wants to use the open_request infrastructure by filling in sk_prot->rsk_prot with an or_calltable. Results? Performance is improved and TCP v4 now uses only 64 bytes per open request minisock, down from 96 without this patch :-) Next changeset will rename some of the structs, fields and functions mentioned above, struct or_calltable is way unclear, better name it struct request_sock_ops, s/struct open_request/struct request_sock/g, etc. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
