Jarek Poplawski 008440e3ad ipv4: Fix fib_trie rebalancing, part 3
Alas current delaying of freeing old tnodes by RCU in trie_rebalance
is still not enough because we can free a top tnode before updating a
t->trie pointer.

Herbert Xu 6828b92bd2 tcp: Do not tack on TSO data to non-TSO packet
If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to
a TSO route, then we will tack on data to the tail of the tx queue
even if it started out life as non-TSO.  This is suboptimal because
all of it will then be copied and checksummed unnecessarily.

This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL before appending extra data beyond the MSS.

Herbert Xu 8e5b9dda99 tcp: Stop non-TSO packets morphing into TSO
If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to
a TSO route, then the tail on the tx queue can morph into a TSO
packet, causing mischief because the rest of the stack does not
expect a partially linear TSO packet.

This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL before declaring a packet as TSO.

Patrick McHardy a3a9f79e36 netfilter: tcp conntrack: fix unacknowledged data detection with NAT
When NAT helpers change the TCP packet size, the highest seen sequence
number needs to be corrected. This is currently only done upwards, when
the packet size is reduced the sequence number is unchanged. This causes
TCP conntrack to falsely detect unacknowledged data and decrease the
timeout.

Fix by updating the highest seen sequence number in both directions after
packet mangling.

Currently, the following three different ways to define percpu arrays
are in use.

1. DEFINE_PER_CPU(elem_type[array_len], array_name);
2. DEFINE_PER_CPU(elem_type, array_name[array_len]);
3. DEFINE_PER_CPU(elem_type, array_name)[array_len];

Unify to #1 which correctly separates the roles of the two parameters
and thus allows more flexibility in the way percpu variables are
defined.

Neil Horman b6280b47a7 ipv4 routing: Ensure that route cache entries are usable and reclaimable with caching is off
When route caching is disabled (rt_caching returns false), We still use route
cache entries that are created and passed into rt_intern_hash once.  These
routes need to be made usable for the one call path that holds a reference to
them, and they need to be reclaimed when they're finished with their use.  To be
made usable, they need to be associated with a neighbor table entry (which they
currently are not), otherwise iproute_finish2 just discards the packet, since we
don't know which L2 peer to send the packet to.  To do this binding, we need to
follow the path a bit higher up in rt_intern_hash, which calls
arp_bind_neighbour, but not assign the route entry to the hash table.
Currently, if caching is off, we simply assign the route to the rp pointer and
are reutrn success.  This patch associates us with a neighbor entry first.

Secondly, we need to make sure that any single use routes like this are known to
the garbage collector when caching is off.  If caching is off, and we try to
hash in a route, it will leak when its refcount reaches zero.  To avoid this,
this patch calls rt_free on the route cache entry passed into rt_intern_hash.
This places us on the gc list for the route cache garbage collector, so that
when its refcount reaches zero, it will be reclaimed (Thanks to Alexey for this
suggestion).

I've tested this on a local system here, and with these patches in place, I'm
able to maintain routed connectivity to remote systems, even if I set
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/rt_cache_rebuild_count to -1, which forces rt_caching to
return false.

Neil Horman 73e42897e8 ipv4: fix NULL pointer + success return in route lookup path
Don't drop route if we're not caching	

	I recently got a report of an oops on a route lookup.  Maxime was
testing what would happen if route caching was turned off (doing so by setting
making rt_caching always return 0), and found that it triggered an oops.  I
looked at it and found that the problem stemmed from the fact that the route
lookup routines were returning success from their lookup paths (which is good),
but never set the **rp pointer to anything (which is bad).  This happens because
in rt_intern_hash, if rt_caching returns false, we call rt_drop and return 0.
This almost emulates slient success.  What we should be doing is assigning *rp =
rt and _not_ dropping the route.  This way, during slow path lookups, when we
create a new route cache entry, we don't immediately discard it, rather we just
don't add it into the cache hash table, but we let this one lookup use it for
the purpose of this route request.  Maxime has tested and reports it prevents
the oops.  There is still a subsequent routing issue that I'm looking into
further, but I'm confident that, even if its related to this same path, this
patch makes sense to take.

My previous patch, which explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding
them to the list to flush them after the update is finished, isn't
strict enough. It treats exceptionally tnodes without parent, assuming
they are newly created, so "invisible" for the read side yet.

But the top tnode doesn't have parent as well, so we have to exclude
all exceptions (at least until a better way is found). Additionally we
need to move rcu assignment of this node before flushing, so the
return type of the trie_rebalance() function is changed.

Jarek Poplawski e0f7cb8c8c ipv4: Fix fib_trie rebalancing
While doing trie_rebalance(): resize(), inflate(), halve() RCU free
tnodes before updating their parents. It depends on RCU delaying the
real destruction, but if RCU readers start after call_rcu() and before
parent update they could access freed memory.

It is currently prevented with preempt_disable() on the update side,
but it's not safe, except maybe classic RCU, plus it conflicts with
memory allocations with GFP_KERNEL flag used from these functions.

This patch explicitly delays freeing of tnodes by adding them to the
list, which is flushed after the update is finished.

Eric Dumazet 2b85a34e91 net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx
One of the problem with sock memory accounting is it uses
a pair of sock_hold()/sock_put() for each transmitted packet.

This slows down bidirectional flows because the receive path
also needs to take a refcount on socket and might use a different
cpu than transmit path or transmit completion path. So these
two atomic operations also trigger cache line bounces.

We can see this in tx or tx/rx workloads (media gateways for example),
where sock_wfree() can be in top five functions in profiles.

We use this sock_hold()/sock_put() so that sock freeing
is delayed until all tx packets are completed.

As we also update sk_wmem_alloc, we could offset sk_wmem_alloc
by one unit at init time, until sk_free() is called.
Once sk_free() is called, we atomic_dec_and_test(sk_wmem_alloc)
to decrement initial offset and atomicaly check if any packets
are in flight.

skb_set_owner_w() doesnt call sock_hold() anymore

sock_wfree() doesnt call sock_put() anymore, but check if sk_wmem_alloc
reached 0 to perform the final freeing.

Drawback is that a skb->truesize error could lead to unfreeable sockets, or
even worse, prematurely calling __sk_free() on a live socket.

Nice speedups on SMP. tbench for example, going from 2691 MB/s to 2711 MB/s
on my 8 cpu dev machine, even if tbench was not really hitting sk_refcnt
contention point. 5 % speedup on a UDP transmit workload (depends
on number of flows), lowering TX completion cpu usage.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 17e6e4eac0 netfilter: conntrack: simplify event caching system
This patch simplifies the conntrack event caching system by removing
several events:

 * IPCT_[*]_VOLATILE, IPCT_HELPINFO and IPCT_NATINFO has been deleted
   since the have no clients.
 * IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING which is a leftover of the 32-bits counter
   days.
 * IPCT_REFRESH which is not of any use since we always include the
   timeout in the messages.

After this patch, the existing events are:

 * IPCT_NEW, IPCT_RELATED and IPCT_DESTROY, that are used to identify
 addition and deletion of entries.
 * IPCT_STATUS, that notes that the status bits have changes,
 eg. IPS_SEEN_REPLY and IPS_ASSURED.
 * IPCT_PROTOINFO, that reports that internal protocol information has
 changed, eg. the TCP, DCCP and SCTP protocol state.
 * IPCT_HELPER, that a helper has been assigned or unassigned to this
 entry.
 * IPCT_MARK and IPCT_SECMARK, that reports that the mark has changed, this
 covers the case when a mark is set to zero.
 * IPCT_NATSEQADJ, to report that there's updates in the NAT sequence
 adjustment.

Nivedita Singhvi f771bef980 ipv4: New multicast-all socket option
After some discussion offline with Christoph Lameter and David Stevens
regarding multicast behaviour in Linux, I'm submitting a slightly
modified patch from the one Christoph submitted earlier.

This patch provides a new socket option IP_MULTICAST_ALL.

In this case, default behaviour is _unchanged_ from the current
Linux standard. The socket option is set by default to provide
original behaviour. Sockets wishing to receive data only from
multicast groups they join explicitly will need to clear this
socket option.

Ilpo Järvinen 2df9001edc tcp: fix loop in ofo handling code and reduce its complexity
Somewhat luckily, I was looking into these parts with very fine
comb because I've made somewhat similar changes on the same
area (conflicts that arose weren't that lucky though). The loop
was very much overengineered recently in commit 915219441d
(tcp: Use SKB queue and list helpers instead of doing it
by-hand), while it basically just wants to know if there are
skbs after 'skb'.

Also it got broken because skb1 = skb->next got translated into
skb1 = skb1->next (though abstracted) improperly. Note that
'skb1' is pointing to previous sk_buff than skb or NULL if at
head. Two things went wrong:
- We'll kfree 'skb' on the first iteration instead of the
  skbuff following 'skb' (it would require required SACK reneging
  to recover I think).
- The list head case where 'skb1' is NULL is checked too early
  and the loop won't execute whereas it previously did.

Conclusion, mostly revert the recent changes which makes the
cset very messy looking but using proper accessor in the
previous-like version.

The effective changes against the original can be viewed with:

Eric Dumazet 1ddbcb005c net: fix rtable leak in net/ipv4/route.c
Alexander V. Lukyanov found a regression in 2.6.29 and made a complete
analysis found in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13339
Quoted here because its a perfect one :

begin_of_quotation
 2.6.29 patch has introduced flexible route cache rebuilding. Unfortunately the
 patch has at least one critical flaw, and another problem.

 rt_intern_hash calculates rthi pointer, which is later used for new entry
 insertion. The same loop calculates cand pointer which is used to clean the
 list. If the pointers are the same, rtable leak occurs, as first the cand is
 removed then the new entry is appended to it.

 This leak leads to unregister_netdevice problem (usage count > 0).

 Another problem of the patch is that it tries to insert the entries in certain
 order, to facilitate counting of entries distinct by all but QoS parameters.
 Unfortunately, referencing an existing rtable entry moves it to list beginning,
 to speed up further lookups, so the carefully built order is destroyed.

 For the first problem the simplest patch it to set rthi=0 when rthi==cand, but
 it will also destroy the ordering.
end_of_quotation

Problematic commit is 1080d709fb
(net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded)

Trying to keep dst_entries ordered is too complex and breaks the fact that
order should depend on the frequency of use for garbage collection.

A possible fix is to make rt_intern_hash() simpler, and only makes
rt_check_expire() a litle bit smarter, being able to cope with an arbitrary
entries order. The added loop is running on cache hot data, while cpu
is prefetching next object, so should be unnoticied.

Chris Friesen 9643f45512 ipv4: teach ipconfig about the MTU option in DHCP
The DHCP spec allows the server to specify the MTU.  This can be useful
for netbooting with UDP-based NFS-root on a network using jumbo frames.
This patch allows the kernel IP autoconfiguration to handle this option
correctly.

It would be possible to use initramfs and add a script to set the MTU,
but that seems like a complicated solution if no initramfs is otherwise
necessary, and would bloat the kernel image more than this code would.

This patch was originally submitted to LKML in 2003 by Hans-Peter Jansen.

Chris Friesen 2513dfb83f ipconfig: handle case of delayed DHCP server
If a DHCP server is delayed, it's possible for the client to receive the 
DHCPOFFER after it has already sent out a new DHCPDISCOVER message from 
a second interface.  The client then sends out a DHCPREQUEST from the 
second interface, but the server doesn't recognize the device and 
rejects the request.

This patch simply tracks the current device being configured and throws 
away the OFFER if it is not intended for the current device.  A more 
sophisticated approach would be to put the OFFER information into the 
struct ic_device rather than storing it globally.

Ilpo Järvinen 255cac91c3 tcp: extend ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN
This should be very safe compared with full enabled, so I see
no reason why it shouldn't be done right away. As ECN can only
be negotiated if the SYN sending party is also supporting it,
somebody in the loop probably knows what he/she is doing. If
SYN does not ask for ECN, the server side SYN-ACK is identical
to what it is without ECN. Thus it's quite safe.

The chosen value is safe w.r.t to existing configs which
choose to currently set manually either 0 or 1 but
silently upgrades those who have not explicitly requested
ECN off.

Whether to just enable both sides comes up time to time but
unless that gets done now we can at least make the servers
aware of ECN already. As there are some known problems to occur
if ECN is enabled, it's currently questionable whether there's
any real gain from enabling clients as servers mostly won't
support it anyway (so we'd hit just the negative sides). After
enabling the servers and getting that deployed, the client end
enable really has some potential gain too.

Stephen Hemminger 942e4a2bd6 netfilter: revised locking for x_tables
The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies
of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer 
lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this
was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance
problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of
the necessary RCU grace period.

This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to
table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global
reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

Anton Blanchard c9503e0fe0 ipv4: Limit size of route cache hash table
Right now we have no upper limit on the size of the route cache hash table.
On a 128GB POWER6 box it ends up as 32MB:

    IP route cache hash table entries: 4194304 (order: 9, 33554432 bytes)

It would be nice to cap this for memory consumption reasons, but a massive
hashtable also causes a significant spike when measuring OS jitter.

With a 32MB hashtable and 4 million entries, rt_worker_func is taking
5 ms to complete. On another system with more memory it's taking 14 ms.
Even though rt_worker_func does call cond_sched() to limit its impact,
in an HPC environment we want to keep all sources of OS jitter to a minimum.

With the patch applied we limit the number of entries to 512k which
can still be overriden by using the rt_entries boot option:

    IP route cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes)

With this patch rt_worker_func now takes 0.460 ms on the same system.

Eric Dumazet 573636cbaf [PATCH] net: remove superfluous call to synchronize_net()
inet_register_protosw() function is responsible for adding a new
inet protocol into a global table (inetsw[]) that is used with RCU rules.

As soon as the store of the pointer is done, other cpus might see
this new protocol in inetsw[], so we have to make sure new protocol
is ready for use. All pending memory updates should thus be committed
to memory before setting the pointer.
This is correctly done using rcu_assign_pointer()

synchronize_net() is typically used at unregister time, after
unsetting the pointer, to make sure no other cpu is still using
the object we want to dismantle. Using it at register time
is only adding an artificial delay that could hide a real bug,
and this bug could popup if/when synchronize_rcu() can proceed
faster than now.

This saves about 13 ms on boot time on a HZ=1000 8 cpus machine  ;) 
(4 calls to inet_register_protosw(), and about 3200 us per call)

Patrick McHardy 98d500d66c netfilter: nf_nat: add support for persistent mappings
The removal of the SAME target accidentally removed one feature that is
not available from the normal NAT targets so far, having multi-range
mappings that use the same mapping for each connection from a single
client. The current behaviour is to choose the address from the range
based on source and destination IP, which breaks when communicating
with sites having multiple addresses that require all connections to
originate from the same IP address.

Introduce a IP_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT option that controls whether the
destination address is taken into account for selecting addresses.

Ilpo Järvinen 9eb9362e56 tcp: miscounts due to tcp_fragment pcount reset
It seems that trivial reset of pcount to one was not sufficient
in tcp_retransmit_skb. Multiple counters experience a positive
miscount when skb's pcount gets lowered without the necessary
adjustments (depending on skb's sacked bits which exactly), at
worst a packets_out miscount can crash at RTO if the write queue
is empty!

Triggering this requires mss change, so bidir tcp or mtu probe or
like.

Paul Moore 389fb800ac netlabel: Label incoming TCP connections correctly in SELinux
The current NetLabel/SELinux behavior for incoming TCP connections works but
only through a series of happy coincidences that rely on the limited nature of
standard CIPSO (only able to convey MLS attributes) and the write equality
imposed by the SELinux MLS constraints.  The problem is that network sockets
created as the result of an incoming TCP connection were not on-the-wire
labeled based on the security attributes of the parent socket but rather based
on the wire label of the remote peer.  The issue had to do with how IP options
were managed as part of the network stack and where the LSM hooks were in
relation to the code which set the IP options on these newly created child
sockets.  While NetLabel/SELinux did correctly set the socket's on-the-wire
label it was promptly cleared by the network stack and reset based on the IP
options of the remote peer.

This patch, in conjunction with a prior patch that adjusted the LSM hook
locations, works to set the correct on-the-wire label format for new incoming
connections through the security_inet_conn_request() hook.  Besides the
correct behavior there are many advantages to this change, the most significant
is that all of the NetLabel socket labeling code in SELinux now lives in hooks
which can return error codes to the core stack which allows us to finally get
ride of the selinux_netlbl_inode_permission() logic which greatly simplfies
the NetLabel/SELinux glue code.  In the process of developing this patch I
also ran into a small handful of AF_INET6 cleanliness issues that have been
fixed which should make the code safer and easier to extend in the future.

Paul Moore 284904aa79 lsm: Relocate the IPv4 security_inet_conn_request() hooks
The current placement of the security_inet_conn_request() hooks do not allow
individual LSMs to override the IP options of the connection's request_sock.
This is a problem as both SELinux and Smack have the ability to use labeled
networking protocols which make use of IP options to carry security attributes
and the inability to set the IP options at the start of the TCP handshake is
problematic.

This patch moves the IPv4 security_inet_conn_request() hooks past the code
where the request_sock's IP options are set/reset so that the LSM can safely
manipulate the IP options as needed.  This patch intentionally does not change
the related IPv6 hooks as IPv6 based labeling protocols which use IPv6 options
are not currently implemented, once they are we will have a better idea of
the correct placement for the IPv6 hooks.

Eric Dumazet ea781f197d netfilter: nf_conntrack: use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and get rid of call_rcu()
Use "hlist_nulls" infrastructure we added in 2.6.29 for RCUification of UDP & TCP.

This permits an easy conversion from call_rcu() based hash lists to a
SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU one.

Avoiding call_rcu() delay at nf_conn freeing time has numerous gains.

First, it doesnt fill RCU queues (up to 10000 elements per cpu).
This reduces OOM possibility, if queued elements are not taken into account
This reduces latency problems when RCU queue size hits hilimit and triggers
emergency mode.

- It allows fast reuse of just freed elements, permitting better use of
CPU cache.

- We delete rcu_head from "struct nf_conn", shrinking size of this structure
by 8 or 16 bytes.

This patch only takes care of "struct nf_conn".
call_rcu() is still used for less critical conntrack parts, that may
be converted later if necessary.

When a chain has already been visited during the check, it is treated as
having a standard target containing a RETURN verdict directly at the
beginning in order to not check it again. The real target of the first
rule is then incorrectly treated as STANDARD target and checked not to
contain invalid verdicts.

Fix by making sure the rule does actually contain a standard target.

Jorge Boncompte [DTI2] 2bad35b7c9 netns: oops in ip[6]_frag_reasm incrementing stats

Quagga's OSPFD sends fragmented packets on a RAW socket, when netfilter
conntrack reassembles them on the OUTPUT path you hit this code path.

Eric Leblond ca735b3aaa netfilter: use a linked list of loggers
This patch modifies nf_log to use a linked list of loggers for each
protocol. This list of loggers is read and write protected with a
mutex.

This patch separates registration and binding. To be used as
logging module, a module has to register calling nf_log_register()
and to bind to a protocol it has to call nf_log_bind_pf().
This patch also converts the logging modules to the new API. For nfnetlink_log,
it simply switchs call to register functions to call to bind function and
adds a call to nf_log_register() during init. For other modules, it just
remove a const flag from the logger structure and replace it with a
__read_mostly.

Ilpo Järvinen afece1c658 tcp: make sure xmit goal size never becomes zero
It's not too likely to happen, would basically require crafted
packets (must hit the max guard in tcp_bound_to_half_wnd()).
It seems that nothing that bad would happen as there's tcp_mems
and congestion window that prevent runaway at some point from
hurting all too much (I'm not that sure what all those zero
sized segments we would generate do though in write queue).
Preventing it regardless is certainly the best way to go.

The results is very unlikely change every so often so we
hardly need to divide again after doing that once for a

Ilpo Järvinen 0c54b85f28 tcp: simplify tcp_current_mss
There's very little need for most of the callsites to get
tp->xmit_goal_size updated. That will cost us divide as is,
so slice the function in two. Also, the only users of the
tp->xmit_goal_size are directly behind tcp_current_mss(),
so there's no need to store that variable into tcp_sock
at all! The drop of xmit_goal_size currently leaves 16-bit
hole and some reorganization would again be necessary to
change that (but I'm aiming to fill that hole with u16
xmit_goal_size_segs to cache the results of the remaining
divide to get that tso on regression).

Bring xmit_goal_size parts into tcp.c

Denys Fedoryshchenko 73ce7b01b4 ipv4: arp announce, arp_proxy and windows ip conflict verification
Windows (XP at least) hosts on boot, with configured static ip, performing 
address conflict detection, which is defined in RFC3927.
Here is quote of important information:

"
An ARP announcement is identical to the ARP Probe described above, 
except    that now the sender and target IP addresses are both set 
to the host's newly selected IPv4 address. 
"

But it same time this goes wrong with RFC5227.
"
The 'sender IP address' field MUST be set to all zeroes; this is to avoid
polluting ARP caches in other hosts on the same link in the case
where the address turns out to be already in use by another host.
"

When ARP proxy configured, it must not answer to both cases, because 
it is address conflict verification in any case. For Windows it is just 
causing to detect false "ip conflict". Already there is code for RFC5227, so 
just trivially we just check also if source ip == target ip.

Eric Dumazet fc1ad92dfc tcp: allow timestamps even if SYN packet has tsval=0
Some systems send SYN packets with apparently wrong RFC1323 timestamp
option values [timestamp tsval=0 tsecr=0].
It might be for security reasons (http://www.secuobs.com/plugs/25220.shtml )

Linux TCP stack ignores this option and sends back a SYN+ACK packet
without timestamp option, thus many TCP flows cannot use timestamps
and lose some benefit of RFC1323.

Other operating systems seem to not care about initial tsval value, and let
tcp flows to negotiate timestamp option.

Eric W. Biederman 6eb0777228 netns: Fix icmp shutdown.
Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace
cleanup.  There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent
and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but
failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called.

The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their
arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.

It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys.  Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making
a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible.

Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in
my testing.

RFC3517 SACK stuff (== !tcp_is_fack(tp) behavior nowadays) as
there wasn't clear way how to handle this particular check
cheaply in the spirit of RFC3517 (using only SACK blocks, not
holes + SACK blocks as with FACK). I sort of left it there as
a reminder but since it's confusing other people just remove

Also I don't agree what I ended up writing about non-trivial

Pablo Neira Ayuso 1ce85fe402 netlink: change nlmsg_notify() return value logic
This patch changes the return value of nlmsg_notify() as follows:

If NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR is set by any of the listeners and
an error in the delivery happened, return the broadcast error;
else if there are no listeners apart from the socket that
requested a change with the echo flag, return the result of the
unicast notification. Thus, with this patch, the unicast
notification is handled in the same way of a broadcast listener
that has set the NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR socket flag.

This patch is useful in case that the caller of nlmsg_notify()
wants to know the result of the delivery of a netlink notification
(including the broadcast delivery) and take any action in case
that the delivery failed. For example, ctnetlink can drop packets
if the event delivery failed to provide reliable logging and
state-synchronization at the cost of dropping packets.

This patch also modifies the rtnetlink code to ignore the return
value of rtnl_notify() in all callers. The function rtnl_notify()
(before this patch) returned the error of the unicast notification
which makes rtnl_set_sk_err() reports errors to all listeners. This
is not of any help since the origin of the change (the socket that
requested the echoing) notices the ENOBUFS error if the notification
fails and should resync itself.

Eric W. Biederman 959d272649 netns: Fix icmp shutdown.
Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace
cleanup.  There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent
and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but
failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called.

The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their
arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems
so this error should have been impossible.

It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead
of register_pernet_subsys.  Which resulted in icmp being shut down
while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making
a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible.

Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in
my testing.

Herbert Xu 7691367d71 tcp: Always set urgent pointer if it's beyond snd_nxt
Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer
does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the
sequence number of a packet.

This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts
the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification
(though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible.
Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification
indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up.

Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which
incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and
conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data.

Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only
if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted.  This
way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with
non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have
advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent
data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet.

The only potential downside is that applications on the remote
end may see multiple SIGURG notifications.  However, this would
occur anyway with other TCP stacks.  More importantly, the outcome
of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since
the signal itself does not carry any information other than the
fact that we're in urgent mode.

Thanks to Ilpo Järvinen for fixing a critical bug in this and
Jeff Chua for reporting that bug.

Stephen Hemminger 784544739a netfilter: iptables: lock free counters
The reader/writer lock in ip_tables is acquired in the critical path of
processing packets and is one of the reasons just loading iptables can cause
a 20% performance loss. The rwlock serves two functions:

1) it prevents changes to table state (xt_replace) while table is in use.
   This is now handled by doing rcu on the xt_table. When table is
   replaced, the new table(s) are put in and the old one table(s) are freed
   after RCU period.

2) it provides synchronization when accesing the counter values.
   This is now handled by swapping in new table_info entries for each cpu
   then summing the old values, and putting the result back onto one
   cpu.  On a busy system it may cause sampling to occur at different
   times on each cpu, but no packet/byte counts are lost in the process.
