Attached are two small patches for include/net/ieee80211.h to prepare
for later submission of code to implement a user-space daemon that
supplies 802.11 regulatory information.
The first change adds a bit indicating that 802.11h rules are to be
applied to a channel. As discussed earlier in this list, a single bit
is unlikely to be sufficient; however, at this time I have been unable
to find any regulations implementing differences between 802.11a and
802.11h other than DFS, radar detection and passive scanning. A single
bit is thus sufficient to convey to the driver that these rules should
be obeyed.
The second change adds comments to the freq and max_power fields of
struct ieee80211_channel to indicate the units that are used.

My router blew up earlier, but exhibited some interesting behaviour during
its dying moments. It was broadcasting beacons but wouldn't respond to
any authentication requests.
I noticed that softmac wasn't playing nice with this, as I couldn't make it try
to connect to other networks after it had timed out authenticating to my ill
router.
To resolve this, I modified the softmac event/notify API to pass the event
code to the callback, so that callbacks being notified from
IEEE80211SOFTMAC_EVENT_ANY masks can make some judgement. In this case, the
ieee80211softmac_assoc callback needs to make a decision based upon whether
the association passed or failed.

This patch finishes of the partially-complete shared key authentication
implementation in softmac.
The complication here is that we need to encrypt a management frame during
the authentication process. I don't think there are any other scenarios where
this would have to happen.
To get around this without causing too many headaches, we decided to just use
software encryption for this frame. The softmac config option now selects
IEEE80211_CRYPT_WEP so that we can ensure this available. This also involved
a modification to some otherwise unused ieee80211 API.

When performing bound checks during the parameter processing, we
want to use the real chunk and paramter lengths for bounds instead
of the rounded ones. This prevents us from potentially walking of
the end if the chunk length was miscalculated. We still use rounded
lengths when advancing the pointer. This was found during a
conformance test that changed the chunk length without modifying

The classical IP over ATM code maintains its own IPv4 <-> <ATM stuff>
ARP table, using the standard neighbour-table code. The
neigh_table_init function adds this neighbour table to a linked list
of all neighbor tables which is used by the functions neigh_delete()
neigh_add() and neightbl_set(), all called by the netlink code.
Once the ATM neighbour table is added to the list, there are two
tables with family == AF_INET there, and ARP entries sent via netlink
go into the first table with matching family. This is indeterminate
and often wrong.
To see the bug, on a kernel with CLIP enabled, create a standard IPv4
ARP entry by pinging an unused address on a local subnet. Then attempt
to complete that entry by doing
ip neigh replace <ip address> lladdr <some mac address> nud reachable
Looking at the ARP tables by using
ip neigh show
will reveal two ARP entries for the same address. One of these can be
found in /proc/net/arp, and the other in /proc/net/atm/arp.
This patch adds a new function, neigh_table_init_no_netlink() which
does everything the neigh_table_init() does, except add the table to
the netlink all-arp-tables chain. In addition neigh_table_init() has a
check that all tables on the chain have a distinct address family.
The init call in clip.c is changed to call
neigh_table_init_no_netlink().
Since ATM ARP tables are rather more complicated than can currently be
handled by the available rtattrs in the netlink protocol, no
functionality is lost by this patch, and non-ATM ARP manipulation via
netlink is rescued. A more complete solution would involve a rtattr
for ATM ARP entries and some way for the netlink code to give
neigh_add and friends more information than just address family with
which to find the correct ARP table.
[ I've changed the assertion checking in neigh_table_init() to not
use BUG_ON() while holding neigh_tbl_lock. Instead we remember that
we found an existing tbl with the same family, and after dropping
the lock we'll give a diagnostic kernel log message and a stack dump.

This patch is the first step towards rate control inside softmac.
The txrates substructure has been extended to provide
different fields for different types of packets (management/data,
unicast/multicast). These fields are updated on association to values
compatible with the access point we are associating to.
Drivers can then use the new ieee80211softmac_suggest_txrate() function
call when deciding which rate to transmit each frame at. This is
immensely useful for ZD1211, and bcm can use it too.
The user can still specify a rate through iwconfig, which is matched
for all transmissions (assuming the rate they have specified is in
the rate set required by the AP).
At a later date, we can incorporate automatic rate management into
the ieee80211softmac_recalc_txrates() function.
This patch also removes the mcast_fallback field. Sam Leffler pointed
out that this field is meaningless, because no driver will ever be
retransmitting mcast frames (they are not acked).

zd1211 with softmac and wpa_supplicant revealed an issue with softmac
and the use of workqueues. Some of the work functions actually
reschedule themselves, so this meant that there could still be
pending work after flush_scheduled_work() had been called during
ieee80211softmac_stop().
This patch introduces a "running" flag which is used to ensure that
rescheduling does not happen in this situation.
I also used this flag to ensure that softmac's hooks into ieee80211 are
non-operational once the stop operation has been started. This simply
makes softmac a little more robust, because I could crash it easily
by receiving frames in the short timeframe after shutting down softmac
and before turning off the ZD1211 radio. (ZD1211 is now fixed as well!)

Basically this patch moves the generic tunnel protocol stuff out of
xfrm4_tunnel/xfrm6_tunnel and moves it into the new files of tunnel4.c
and tunnel6 respectively.
The reason for this is that the problem that Hugo uncovered is only
the tip of the iceberg. The real problem is that when we removed the
dependency of ipip on xfrm4_tunnel we didn't really consider the module
case at all.
For instance, as it is it's possible to build both ipip and xfrm4_tunnel
as modules and if the latter is loaded then ipip simply won't load.
After considering the alternatives I've decided that the best way out of
this is to restore the dependency of ipip on the non-xfrm-specific part
of xfrm4_tunnel. This is acceptable IMHO because the intention of the
removal was really to be able to use ipip without the xfrm subsystem.
This is still preserved by this patch.
So now both ipip/xfrm4_tunnel depend on the new tunnel4.c which handles
the arbitration between the two. The order of processing is determined
by a simple integer which ensures that ipip gets processed before
xfrm4_tunnel.
The situation for ICMP handling is a little bit more complicated since
we may not have enough information to determine who it's for. It's not
a big deal at the moment since the xfrm ICMP handlers are basically
no-ops. In future we can deal with this when we look at ICMP caching
in general.
The user-visible change to this is the removal of the TUNNEL Kconfig
prompts. This makes sense because it can only be used through IPCOMP
as it stands.
The addition of the new modules shouldn't introduce any problems since
module dependency will cause them to be loaded.
Oh and I also turned some unnecessary pskb's in IPv6 related to this
patch to skb's.

The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no
protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2
We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
classes:
"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;
"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.
We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore
this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are
used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are
explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
kernel/sys.c.
With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no
guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The
idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
handle these things in their own way.)
There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For
atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a
callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
had to be changed to avoid it.)
Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost
entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
less frequent that calling a chain.
Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None
of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong. If they are,
please let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that
gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
(However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
atomic.)

When we get an ICMP need-to-frag message, the original TOS value in the
ICMP payload cannot be used as a key to look up the routes to update.
This is because the TOS field may have been modified by routers on the
way. Similarly, ip_rt_redirect should also ignore the TOS as the router
that gave us the message may have modified the TOS value.
The patch achieves this objective by aggregating entries with different
TOS values (but are otherwise identical) into the same bucket. This
makes it easy to update them at the same time when an ICMP message is
received.
In future we should use a twin-hashing scheme where teh aggregation
occurs at the entry level. That is, the TOS goes back into the hash
for normal lookups while ICMP lookups will end up with a node that
gives us a list that contains all other route entries that differ
only by TOS.

Allows use of the optional user facility to insert ITU-T
(http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/) specified DTE facilities in call set-up x25
packets. This feature is optional; no facilities will be added if the ioctl
is not used, and call setup packet remains the same as before.
If the ioctls provided by the patch are used, then a facility marker will be
added to the x25 packet header so that the called dte address extension
facility can be differentiated from other types of facilities (as described in
the ITU-T X.25 recommendation) that are also allowed in the x25 packet header.
Facility markers are made up of two octets, and may be present in the x25
packet headers of call-request, incoming call, call accepted, clear request,
and clear indication packets. The first of the two octets represents the
facility code field and is set to zero by this patch. The second octet of the
marker represents the facility parameter field and is set to 0x0F because the
marker will be inserted before ITU-T type DTE facilities.
Since according to ITU-T X.25 Recommendation X.25(10/96)- 7.1 "All networks
will support the facility markers with a facility parameter field set to all
ones or to 00001111", therefore this patch should work with all x.25 networks.
While there are many ITU-T DTE facilities, this patch implements only the
called and calling address extension, with placeholders in the
x25_dte_facilities structure for the rest of the facilities.
Testing:
This patch was tested using a cisco xot router connected on its serial ports
to an X.25 network, and on its lan ports to a host running an xotd daemon.
It is also possible to test this patch using an xotd daemon and an x25tap
patch, where the xotd daemons work back-to-back without actually using an x.25
network. See www.fyonne.net for details on how to do this.

The byte ordering of dn_eth2dn() and dn_dn2eth() are both changed
since just about all their callers wanted network order rather than
host order, so the conversion is now done in the functions themselves.
Several missed endianess conversions have been picked up during the
conversion process. The nh_gw field in struct dn_fib_info has been
changed from a 32 bit field to 16 bits as it ought to be.
One or two cases of using htons rather than dn_htons in the routing
code have been found and fixed.
There are still a few warnings to fix, but this patch deals with the
important cases.

When xfrm_user isn't loaded xfrm_nl is NULL, which makes IPsec crash because
xfrm_aevent_is_on passes the NULL pointer to netlink_has_listeners as socket.
A second problem is that the xfrm_nl pointer is not cleared when the socket
is releases at module unload time.
Protect references of xfrm_nl from outside of xfrm_user by RCU, check
that the socket is present in xfrm_aevent_is_on and set it to NULL

Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit
window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated. Some
ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of
the TCP header and would get confused.
Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default
now.
There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old

struct neigh_ops currently has a destructor field, which no in-kernel
drivers outside of infiniband use. The infiniband/ulp/ipoib in-tree
driver stashes some info in the neighbour structure (the results of
the second-stage lookup from ARP results to real link-level path), and
it uses neigh->ops->destructor to get a callback so it can clean up
this extra info when a neighbour is freed. We've run into problems
with this: since the destructor is in an ops field that is shared
between neighbours that may belong to different net devices, there's
no way to set/clear it safely.
The following patch moves this field to neigh_parms where it can be
safely set, together with its twin neigh_setup. Two additional
patches in the patch series update ipoib to use this new interface.

Instead of doing a memset then initialization of the fields of the scm
structure, just initialize all the members explicitly. Prevent reloading
of current on x86 and x86-64 by storing the value in a local variable for
subsequent dereferences. This is worth a ~7KB/s increase in af_unix
bandwidth. Note that we avoid the issues surrounding potentially
uninitialized members of the ucred structure by constructing a struct
ucred instead of assigning the members individually, which forces the
compiler to zero any padding.

re-calculate the pointer to it when needed rather than keeping
pointers around.

The only reason post_input exists at all is that it gives us the
potential to adjust the checksums incrementally in future which
we ought to do.
However, after thinking about it for a bit we can adjust the
checksums without using this post_input stuff at all. The crucial
point is that only the inner-most NAT-T SA needs to be considered
when adjusting checksums. What's more, the checksum adjustment
comes down to a single u32 due to the linearity of IP checksums.
We just happen to have a spare u32 lying around in our skb structure :)
When ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_NONE on input, the value of skb->csum
is currently unused. All we have to do is to make that the checksum
adjustment and voila, there goes all the post_input and decap structures!
I've left in the decap data structures for now since it's intricately

This patch directs these packets to the original output path instead. Since
the packets have already passed the POST_ROUTING hook, but need to start at
the beginning of the original output path which includes another
POST_ROUTING invocation, a flag is added to the IPCB to indicate that the

sctp_unpack_cookie used an on-stack array called digest as a result/out

assumes that the 'out' argument is in virtual memory (identity mapped
region)
and can use virt_to_page call on it. This does not work with the on-stack
declared digest. The problems observed so far have been:
a) incorrect hmac digest
b) machine check and hardware reset.
Solution is to define the digest in an identity mapped region by
kmalloc'ing
it. We can do this once as part of the endpoint structure and re-use it

In af_unix, a rwlock is used to protect internal state. At least on my
P4 with HT it is faster to use a spinlock due to the simpler memory
barrier used to unlock. This patch raises bw_unix to ~690K/s.

To help in reducing the number of include dependencies, several files were
touched as they were getting needed headers indirectly for stuff they use.
Thanks also to Alan Menegotto for pointing out that net/dccp/proto.c had
linux/dccp.h include twice.

Its common enough to to justify that, TCP still can't use it as it has the
prequeueing stuff, still to be made generic in the not so distant future :-)

I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)
This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.
This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)
I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.
This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.

This patch adds support to set/get heartbeat interval, maximum number of
retransmissions, pathmtu, sackdelay time for a particular transport/
association/socket as per the latest SCTP sockets api draft11.

This lock is actually taken mostly as a writer,
so using a rwlock actually just makes performance
worse especially on chips like the Intel P4.

As DCCP needs to be called in the same spots.
Now we have a member in inet_sock (is_icsk), set at sock creation time from
struct inet_protosw->flags (if INET_PROTOSW_ICSK is set, like for TCP and
DCCP) to see if a struct sock instance is a inet_connection_sock for places
like the ones in ip_sockglue.c (v4 and v6) where we previously were looking if
sk_type was SOCK_STREAM, that is insufficient because we now use the same code
for DCCP, that has sk_type SOCK_DCCP.

Upcoming patches will make, for instance, ip_sockglue.c need just this enum
and not all of tcp.h.
