Patrick McHardy 794e68716b netfilter: ctnetlink: only assign helpers for matching protocols
Make sure not to assign a helper for a different network or transport
layer protocol to a connection.

Additionally change expectation deletion by helper to compare the name
directly - there might be multiple helper registrations using the same
name, currently one of them is chosen in an unpredictable manner and
only those expectations are removed.

Patrick McHardy 2eff25c18c netfilter: xt_hashlimit: fix race condition and simplify locking
As noticed by Shin Hong <hongshin@gmail.com>, there is a race between
htable_find_get() and htable_put():

htable_put():				htable_find_get():

					spin_lock_bh(&hashlimit_lock);
					<search entry>
atomic_dec_and_test(&hinfo->use)
					atomic_inc(&hinfo->use)
					spin_unlock_bh(&hashlimit_lock)
					return hinfo;
spin_lock_bh(&hashlimit_lock);
hlist_del(&hinfo->node);
spin_unlock_bh(&hashlimit_lock);
htable_destroy(hinfo);

The entire locking concept is overly complicated, tables are only
created/referenced and released in process context, so a single
mutex works just fine. Remove the hashinfo_spinlock and atomic
reference count and use the mutex to protect table lookups/creation
and reference count changes.

Simon Arlott 10a199394b netfilter: xt_TCPMSS: SYN packets are allowed to contain data
The TCPMSS target is dropping SYN packets where:
  1) There is data, or
  2) The data offset makes the TCP header larger than the packet.

Both of these result in an error level printk. This printk has been
removed.

This change avoids dropping SYN packets containing data. If there
is also no MSS option (as well as data), one will not be added
because of possible complications due to the increased packet size.

Alexey Dobriyan a83d8e8d09 netfilter: xtables: add struct xt_mtchk_param::net
Some complex match modules (like xt_hashlimit/xt_recent) want netns
information at constructor and destructor time. We propably can play
games at match destruction time, because netns can be passed in object,
but I think it's cleaner to explicitly pass netns.

Add ->net, make sure it's set from ebtables/iptables/ip6tables code.

commit 8a27f7c90f
changed the output style of %pi4 to use fixed
width leading zero IP addresses "001.002.003.004".

It's useful when printing multiple lines of
addresses, but was a change in output style for
some existing uses.

Using %pI4 restores the previous output style.

Catalin(ux) M. BOIE 6f7edb4881 IPVS: Allow boot time change of hash size
I was very frustrated about the fact that I have to recompile the kernel
to change the hash size. So, I created this patch.

If IPVS is built-in you can append ip_vs.conn_tab_bits=?? to kernel
command line, or, if you built IPVS as modules, you can add
options ip_vs conn_tab_bits=??.

To keep everything backward compatible, you still can select the size at
compile time, and that will be used as default.

It has been about a year since this patch was originally posted
and subsequently dropped on the basis of insufficient test data.

Mark Bergsma has provided the following test results which seem
to strongly support the need for larger hash table sizes:

We do however run into the same problem with the default setting (212 =
4096 entries), as most of our LVS balancers handle around a million
connections/SLAB entries at any point in time (around 100-150 kpps
load). With only 4096 hash table entries this implies that each entry
consists of a linked list of 256 connections *on average*.

To provide some statistics, I did an oprofile run on an 2.6.31 kernel,
with both the default 4096 table size, and the same kernel recompiled
with IP_VS_CONN_TAB_BITS set to 18 (218 = 262144 entries). I built a
quick test setup with a part of Wikimedia/Wikipedia's live traffic
mirrored by the switch to the test host.

With the default setting, at ~ 120 kpps packet load we saw a typical %si
CPU usage of around 30-35%, and oprofile reported a hot spot in
ip_vs_conn_in_get:

samples  %        image name               app name
symbol name
1719761  42.3741  ip_vs.ko                 ip_vs.ko      ip_vs_conn_in_get
302577    7.4554  bnx2                     bnx2          /bnx2
181984    4.4840  vmlinux                  vmlinux       __ticket_spin_lock
128636    3.1695  vmlinux                  vmlinux       ip_route_input
74345     1.8318  ip_vs.ko                 ip_vs.ko      ip_vs_conn_out_get
68482     1.6874  vmlinux                  vmlinux       mwait_idle

After loading the recompiled kernel with 218 entries, %si CPU usage
dropped in half to around 12-18%, and oprofile looks much healthier,
with only 7% spent in ip_vs_conn_in_get:

samples  %        image name               app name
symbol name
265641   14.4616  bnx2                     bnx2         /bnx2

This patch adds the flag CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT. It is used as mask
or flag in the "struct can_ctrlmode".

It allows userspace via netlink to set a CAN controller into the special
"one-shot" mode. In this mode, if supported by the CAN controller, it
tries only once to deliver a CAN frame and aborts it if an error
(e.g.: arbitration lost) happens.

Use the %pM kernel extension to display the MAC address.

The only difference in the output is that the MAC address is
shown in the usual colon-separated hex notation instead of
space-separated.

Kalle Valo e1781ed33a mac80211: annotate sleeping driver ops
To make it easier to notice cases of calling sleeping ops in atomic context,
annotate driver-ops.h with appropiate might_sleep() calls. At the same time,
also document in mac80211.h the op functions with missing contexts.

mac80211 doesn't seem to use get_tx_stats anywhere currently. Just to be on
the safe side, I documented it to be atomic, but hopefully the op can be
removed in the future.

Compile-tested only.

Johannes Berg 095d5ef608 mac80211: remove requeue from work
There's no need to be requeueing the work struct
since we check for the scan after removing items
due to possible timeouts.

Johannes Berg 1ed32e4fc8 mac80211: remove struct ieee80211_if_init_conf
All its members (vif, mac_addr, type) are now available
in the vif struct directly, so we can pass that instead
of the conf struct. I generated this patch (except the
mac80211 and header file changes) with this semantic
patch:

identifier conf, fn, hw;
