Pavel Emelyanov cf7732e4cc [NET]: Make core networking code use seq_open_private
This concerns the ipv4 and ipv6 code mostly, but also the netlink
and unix sockets.

The netlink code is an example of how to use the __seq_open_private()
call - it saves the net namespace on this private.

David L Stevens 14878f75ab [IPV6]: Add ICMPMsgStats MIB (RFC 4293) [rev 2]
Background: RFC 4293 deprecates existing individual, named ICMP
type counters to be replaced with the ICMPMsgStatsTable. This table
includes entries for both IPv4 and IPv6, and requires counting of all
ICMP types, whether or not the machine implements the type.

These patches "remove" (but not really) the existing counters, and
replace them with the ICMPMsgStats tables for v4 and v6.
It includes the named counters in the /proc places they were, but gets the
values for them from the new tables. It also counts packets generated
from raw socket output (e.g., OutEchoes, MLD queries, RA's from
radvd, etc).

Changes:
1) create icmpmsg_statistics mib
2) create icmpv6msg_statistics mib
3) modify existing counters to use these
4) modify /proc/net/snmp to add "IcmpMsg" with all ICMP types
        listed by number for easy SNMP parsing
5) modify /proc/net/snmp printing for "Icmp" to get the named data
        from new counters.
[new to 2nd revision]
6) support per-interface ICMP stats
7) use common macro for per-device stat macros

Eric W. Biederman 881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

Eric W. Biederman 457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 27a884dc3c [SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...

Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,

Neil Horman 95c385b4d5 [IPV6] ADDRCONF: Optimistic Duplicate Address Detection (RFC 4429) Support.
Nominally an autoconfigured IPv6 address is added to an interface in the
Tentative state (as per RFC 2462).  Addresses in this state remain in this
state while the Duplicate Address Detection process operates on them to
determine their uniqueness on the network.  During this period, these
tentative addresses may not be used for communication, increasing the time
before a node may be able to communicate on a network.  Using Optimistic
Duplicate Address Detection, autoconfigured addresses may be used
immediately for communication on the network, as long as certain rules are
followed to avoid conflicts with other nodes during the Duplicate Address
Detection process.

David L Stevens 7add2a4398 [IPV6] MLDv2: fix change records when transitioning to/from inactive
The following patch fixes these problems in MLDv2:

1) Add/remove "delete" records for sending change reports when
        addition of a filter results in that filter transitioning to/from
        inactive. [same as recent IPv4 IGMPv3 fix]
2) Remove 2 redundant "group_type" checks (can't be IPV6_ADDR_ANY
        within that loop, so checks are always true)
3) change an is_in() "return 0" to "return type == MLD2_MODE_IS_INCLUDE".
        It should always be "0" to get here, but it improves code locality 
        to not assume it, and if some race allowed otherwise, doing
        the check would return the correct result.

David L Stevens 5ab4a6c81e [IPV6] mcast: Fix multiple issues in MLDv2 reports.
The below "jumbo" patch fixes the following problems in MLDv2.

1) Add necessary "ntohs" to recent "pskb_may_pull" check [breaks
        all nonzero source queries on little-endian (!)]

2) Add locking to source filter list [resend of prior patch]

3) fix "mld_marksources()" to
        a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded
        b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are
                not excluded
        c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report

NOTE: RFC 3810 specifies the source list should be saved and each
  source reported individually as an IS_IN. This is an obvious DOS
  path, requiring the host to store and then multicast as many sources
  as are queried (e.g., millions...). This alternative sends a full, 
  relevant report that's limited to number of sources present on the
  machine.

4) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should
        The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source
        list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that
        short-circuit case, and also generates the group header
        with an empty list if needed.

5) fix mca_crcount decrement to be after add_grec(), which needs
        its original value

These issues (other than item #1 ;-) ) were all found by Yan Zheng,

Further explanation by David Stevens:

Multicast source filters aren't widely used yet, and that's really the only
feature that's affected if an application actually exercises this bug, as far
as I can tell. An ordinary filter-less multicast join should still work, and
only forwarded multicast traffic making use of filters and doing empty-source
filters with the MSFILTER ioctl would be at risk of not getting multicast
traffic forwarded to them because the reports generated would not be based on
the correct counts.

Yan Zheng f12baeab9d [MCAST] IPv6: Fix algorithm to compute Querier's Query Interval
5.1.3.  Maximum Response Code

   The Maximum Response Code field specifies the maximum time allowed
   before sending a responding Report.  The actual time allowed, called
   the Maximum Response Delay, is represented in units of milliseconds,
   and is derived from the Maximum Response Code as follows:

   If Maximum Response Code < 32768,
      Maximum Response Delay = Maximum Response Code

   If Maximum Response Code >=32768, Maximum Response Code represents a
   floating-point value as follows:

       0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |1| exp |          mant         |
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   Maximum Response Delay = (mant | 0x1000) << (exp+3)


5.1.9.  QQIC (Querier's Query Interval Code)

   The Querier's Query Interval Code field specifies the [Query
   Interval] used by the Querier.  The actual interval, called the
   Querier's Query Interval (QQI), is represented in units of seconds,
   and is derived from the Querier's Query Interval Code as follows:

   If QQIC < 128, QQI = QQIC

   If QQIC >= 128, QQIC represents a floating-point value as follows:

       0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
      |1| exp | mant  |
      +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

   QQI = (mant | 0x10) << (exp + 3)

                                                -- rfc3810

#define MLDV2_QQIC(value) MLDV2_EXP(0x80, 4, 3, value)
#define MLDV2_MRC(value) MLDV2_EXP(0x8000, 12, 3, value)

Above macro are defined in mcast.c. but 1 << 4 == 0x10 and 1 << 12 == 0x1000.
So the result computed by original Macro is larger.

David L Stevens 9951f036fe [IPV4]: (INCLUDE,empty)/leave-group equivalence for full-state MSF APIs & errno fix
1) Adds (INCLUDE, empty)/leave-group equivalence to the full-state 
   multicast source filter APIs (IPv4 and IPv6)

2) Fixes an incorrect errno in the IPv6 leave-group (ENOENT should be
   EADDRNOTAVAIL)

David L Stevens 917f2f105e [IPV4]: multicast API "join" issues
1) In the full-state API when imsf_numsrc == 0
   errno should be "0", but returns EADDRNOTAVAIL

2) An illegal filter mode change
   errno should be EINVAL, but returns EADDRNOTAVAIL

3) Trying to do an any-source option without IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP
   errno should be EINVAL, but returns EADDRNOTAVAIL

4) Adds comments for the less obvious error return values

David L Stevens c9e3e8b695 [IPV6]: multicast join and misc
Here is a simplified version of the patch to fix a bug in IPv6
multicasting. It:

1) adds existence check & EADDRINUSE error for regular joins
2) adds an exception for EADDRINUSE in the source-specific multicast
        join (where a prior join is ok)
3) adds a missing/needed read_lock on sock_mc_list; would've raced
        with destroying the socket on interface down without
4) adds a "leave group" in the (INCLUDE, empty) source filter case.
        This frees unneeded socket buffer memory, but also prevents
        an inappropriate interaction among the 8 socket options that
        mess with this. Some would fail as if in the group when you
        aren't really.

Item #4 had a locking bug in the last version of this patch; rather than
removing the idev->lock read lock only, I've simplified it to remove
all lock state in the path and treat it as a direct "leave group" call for
the (INCLUDE,empty) case it covers. Tested on an MP machine. :-)

Much thanks to HoerdtMickael <hoerdt@clarinet.u-strasbg.fr> who
reported the original bug.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
