[NETLINK]: Neighbour table configuration and statistics via rtnetlink

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.

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

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 :-)

fail. We hold two references (one from xfrm_state_alloc(), one
from xfrm_state_hold()), but only drop one. We need to take the

[IPSEC] Kill spurious hard expire messages

This patch ensures that the hard state/policy expire notifications are
only sent when the state/policy is successfully removed from their
respective tables.

As it is, it's possible for a state/policy to both expire through
reaching a hard limit, as well as being deleted by the user.

Note that this behaviour isn't actually forbidden by RFC 2367.
However, it is a quality of implementation issue.

As an added bonus, the restructuring in this patch will help
eventually in moving the expire notifications from softirq
context into process context, thus improving their reliability.

One important side-effect from this change is that SAs reaching
their hard byte/packet limits are now deleted immediately, just
like SAs that have reached their hard time limits.

Previously they were announced immediately but only deleted after
30 seconds.

This is bad because it prevents the system from issuing an ACQUIRE
command until the existing state was deleted by the user or expires
after the time is up.

In the scenario where the expire notification was lost this introduces
a 30 second delay into the system for no good reason.

[PATCH] PCI: don't override drv->shutdown unconditionally

There are many drivers that have been setting the generic driver
model level shutdown callback, and pci thus must not override it.

Without this patch we can have really bad data loss on various

Kiyoshi Ueda [Fri, 17 Jun 2005 14:15:10 +0000 (16:15 +0200)]
When cfq I/O scheduler is selected, get_request() in __make_request() calls
__cfq_get_queue().  __cfq_get_queue() finds an existing queue (struct
cfq_queue) of the current process for the device and returns it.  If it's not
found, __cfq_get_queue() creates and returns a new one if __cfq_get_queue() is
called with __GFP_WAIT flag, or __cfq_get_queue() returns NULL (this means that
get_request() fails) if no __GFP_WAIT flag.

On the other hand, in __make_request(), get_request() is called without
__GFP_WAIT flag at the first time.  Thus, the get_request() fails when there is
no existing queue, typically when it's called for the first I/O request of the
process to the device.

Though it will be followed by get_request_wait() for general case,
__make_request() will just end the I/O with an error (EWOULDBLOCK) when the
request was for read-ahead.

weeks before the Fedora Core 4 release, initially as slab corruption, later
as hard crashes on boot up, when slab debugging was disabled for the

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=158424

scsi_id, without explicitly requesting space for it.  Since hostdata is
declared as a zero-sized array, we don't get any such space by default, so
it must be explicitly requested.  The patch below implements just that.

On 64-bit machines, PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_MASK and other mask constants
passed to pci_size() are 64-bit (for example ~0x0fUL).  However, pci_size
does comparisons between the u32 arguments and the mask, which will fail

arithmetic in the function is 32-bit and having a larger mask makes no
sense.

This triggered on a PPC64 system here where an adapter (VGA, as it
happened) had a memory region base of 0xfe000000 and a sz of the same,
matching the if (max == maxbase ...) test at the bottom of pci_size but

module parameter was changed while parsing it.  This corrupted the
output in sysfs (/sys/module/zfcp/parameters/device).

[IPV4]: Sysctl configurable icmp error source address.

This patch alows you to change the source address of icmp error
messages. It applies cleanly to 2.6.11.11 and retains the default
behaviour.

In the old (default) behaviour icmp error messages are sent with the ip
of the exiting interface.

The new behaviour (when the sysctl variable is toggled on), it will send
the message with the ip of the interface that received the packet that
caused the icmp error. This is the behaviour network administrators will
expect from a router. It makes debugging complicated network layouts
much easier. Also, all 'vendor routers' I know of have the later
behaviour.

[IPv6] Don't generate temporary for TUN devices

Userland layer-2 tunneling devices allocated through the TUNTAP driver
(drivers/net/tun.c) have a type of ARPHRD_NONE, and have no link-layer
address. The kernel complains at regular interval when IPv6 Privacy
extension are enabled because it can't find an hardware address :

Dec 29 11:02:04 auguste kernel: __ipv6_regen_rndid(idev=cb3e0c00):
cannot get EUI64 identifier; use random bytes.

IPv6 Privacy extensions should probably be disabled on that sort of
device. They won't work anyway. If userland wants a more usual
Ethernet-ish interface with usual IPv6 autoconfiguration, it will use a
TAP device with an emulated link-layer  and a random hardware address
rather than a TUN device.

As far as I could fine, TUN virtual device from TUNTAP is the very only
sort of device using ARPHRD_NONE as kernel device type.
