The setup_net is called for the init net namespace
only (int the CONFIG_NET_NS=n of course) from the __init
function, so mark it as __net_init to disappear with the
caller after the boot.
Yet again, in the perfect world this has to be under
#ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS, but it isn't guaranteed that every
subsystem is registered *after* the init_net_ns is set
up. After we are sure, that we don't start registering
them before the init net setup, we'll be able to move
this code under the ifdef.

The namespace creation/destruction code is never called
if the CONFIG_NET_NS is n, so it's OK to move it under
appropriate ifdef.
The copy_net_ns() in the "n" case checks for flags and
returns -EINVAL when new net ns is requested. In a perfect
world this stub must be in net_namespace.h, but this
function need to know the CLONE_NEWNET value and thus
requires sched.h. On the other hand this header is to be
injected into almost every .c file in the networking code,
and making all this code depend on the sched.h is a
suicidal attempt.

When the new pernet something (subsys, device or operations) is
being registered, the init callback is to be called for each
namespace, that currently exitst in the system. During the
unregister, the same is to be done with the exit callback.
However, not every pernet something has both calls, but the
check for the appropriate pointer to be not NULL is performed
inside the for_each_net() loop.
This is (at least) strange, so tune this.

DSACK inside another SACK block were missed if start_seq of DSACK
was larger than SACK block's because sorting prioritizes full
processing of the SACK block before DSACK. After SACK block
sorting situation is like this:
SSSSSSSSS
D
SSSSSS
SSSSSSS
Because write_queue is walked in-order, when the first SACK block
has been processed, TCP is already past the skb for which the
DSACK arrived and we haven't taught it to backtrack (nor should
we), so TCP just continues processing by going to the next SACK
block after the DSACK (if any).
Whenever such DSACK is present, do an embedded checking during
the previous SACK block.
If the DSACK is below snd_una, there won't be overlapping SACK
block, and thus no problem in that case. Also if start_seq of
the DSACK is equal to the actual block, it will be processed
first.
Tested this by using netem to duplicate 15% of packets, and
by printing SACK block when found_dup_sack is true and the
selected skb in the dup_sack = 1 branch (if taken):
SACK block 0: 4344-5792 (relative to snd_una 2019137317)
SACK block 1: 4344-5792 (relative to snd_una 2019137317)
equal start seqnos => next_dup = 0, dup_sack = 1 won't occur...
SACK block 0: 5792-7240 (relative to snd_una 2019214061)
SACK block 1: 2896-7240 (relative to snd_una 2019214061)
DSACK skb match 5792-7240 (relative to snd_una)
...and next_dup = 1 case (after the not shown start_seq sort),
went to dup_sack = 1 branch.

This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by
commit 68e3f5dd4d
[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors
The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.
Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.
The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

When a network namespace reference is held by a network subsystem,
and when this reference is decremented in a rcu update callback, we
must ensure that there is no more outstanding rcu update before
trying to free the network namespace.
In the normal case, the rcu_barrier is called when the network namespace
is exiting in the cleanup_net function.
But when a network namespace creation fails, and the subsystems are
undone (like the cleanup), the rcu_barrier is missing.
This patch adds the missing rcu_barrier.

Point 1:
The unregistering of a network device schedule a netdev_run_todo.
This function calls dev->destructor when it is set and the
destructor calls free_netdev.
Point 2:
In the case of an initialization of a network device the usual code
is:
* alloc_netdev
* register_netdev
-> if this one fails, call free_netdev and exit with error.
Point 3:
In the register_netdevice function at the later state, when the device
is at the registered state, a call to the netdevice_notifiers is made.
If one of the notification falls into an error, a rollback to the
registered state is done using unregister_netdevice.
Conclusion:
When a network device fails to register during initialization because
one network subsystem returned an error during a notification call
chain, the network device is freed twice because of fact 1 and fact 2.
The second free_netdev will be done with an invalid pointer.
Proposed solution:
The following patch move all the code of unregister_netdevice *except*
the call to net_set_todo, to a new function "rollback_registered".
The following functions are changed in this way:
* register_netdevice: calls rollback_registered when a notification fails
* unregister_netdevice: calls rollback_register + net_set_todo, the call
order to net_set_todo is changed because it is the
latest now. Since it justs add an element to a list
that should not break anything.

On systems with a very large amount of memory, the heuristics in
alloc_large_system_hash() result in a very large TCP established hash
table: 16 millions of entries for a 128 GB ia64 system. This makes
reading from /proc/net/tcp pretty slow (well over a second) and as a
result netstat is slow on these machines. I know that /proc/net/tcp is
deprecated in favor of tcp_diag, however at the moment netstat only
knows of the former.
I am skeptical that such a large TCP established hash is often needed.
Just because a system has a lot of memory doesn't imply that it will
have several millions of concurrent TCP connections. Thus I believe
that we should put an arbitrary high limit to the size of the TCP
established hash by default. Users who really need a bigger hash can
always use the thash_entries boot parameter to get more.
I propose 2 millions of entries as the arbitrary high limit. This
makes /proc/net/tcp reasonably fast on the system in question (0.2 s)
while being still large enough for me to be confident that network
performance won't suffer.
This is just one way to limit the hash size, there are others; I am not
familiar enough with the TCP code to decide which is best. Thus, I
would welcome the proposals of alternatives.
[ 2 million is still too large, thus I've modified the limit in the
change to be '512 * 1024'. -DaveM ]

It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section.
We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys.
Which doesn't happen until module unload.
So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding
it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked
list and does horrible things for linked insert.
So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded
for modules.

This adds support for converting the 11 currently defined Reset codes into system
error numbers, which are stored in sk_err for further interpretation.
This makes the externally visible API behaviour similar to TCP, since a client
connecting to a non-existing port will experience ECONNREFUSED.
* Code 0, Unspecified, is interpreted as non-error (0);
* Code 1, Closed (normal termination), also maps into 0;
* Code 2, Aborted, maps into "Connection reset by peer" (ECONNRESET);
* Code 3, No Connection and
Code 7, Connection Refused, map into "Connection refused" (ECONNREFUSED);
* Code 4, Packet Error, maps into "No message of desired type" (ENOMSG);
* Code 5, Option Error, maps into "Illegal byte sequence" (EILSEQ);
* Code 6, Mandatory Error, maps into "Operation not supported on transport endpoint" (EOPNOTSUPP);
* Code 8, Bad Service Code, maps into "Invalid request code" (EBADRQC);
* Code 9, Too Busy, maps into "Too many users" (EUSERS);
* Code 10, Bad Init Cookie, maps into "Invalid request descriptor" (EBADR);
* Code 11, Aggression Penalty, maps into "Quota exceeded" (EDQUOT)
which makes sense in terms of using more than the `fair share' of bandwidth.

This fixes the following problem: client connects to peer which has no DCCP
enabled or loaded; ICMP error messages ("Protocol Unavailable") can be seen
on the wire, but the application hangs. Reason: ICMP packets don't get through
to dccp_v4_err.
When reporting errors, a sequence number check is made for the DCCP packet
that had caused an ICMP error to arrive.
Such checks can not be made if the socket is in state LISTEN, RESPOND (which
in the implementation is the same as LISTEN), or REQUEST, since update_gsr()
has not been called in these states, hence the sequence window is 0..0.
This patch fixes the problem by adding the REQUEST state as another exemption
to the window check. The error reporting now works as expected on connecting.

This fixes a problem when analysing erroneous packets in dccp_v{4,6}_err:
* dccp_hdr_seq currently takes an skb
* however, the transport headers in the skb are shifted, due to the
preceding IPv4/v6 header.
Fixed for v4 and v6 by changing dccp_hdr_seq to take a struct dccp_hdr as
argument. Verified that the correct sequence number is now reported in the
error handler.

The Bluetooth HCI commands are divided into logical OGF groups for
easier identification of their purposes. While this still makes sense
for the written specification, its makes the code only more complex
and harder to read. So instead of using separate OGF and OCF values
to identify the commands, use a common 16-bit opcode that combines
both values. As a side effect this also reduces the complexity of
OGF and OCF calculations during command header parsing.

This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.
The idea is:
- all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
- when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
- when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
task's namespace the global one is to be used;
- when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

When someone wants to deal with some other taks's namespaces it has to lock
the task and then to get the desired namespace if the one exists. This is
slow on read-only paths and may be impossible in some cases.
E.g. Oleg recently noticed a race between unshare() and the (sent for
review in cgroups) pid namespaces - when the task notifies the parent it
has to know the parent's namespace, but taking the task_lock() is
impossible there - the code is under write locked tasklist lock.
On the other hand switching the namespace on task (daemonize) and releasing
the namespace (after the last task exit) is rather rare operation and we
can sacrifice its speed to solve the issues above.
The access to other task namespaces is proposed to be performed
like this:
rcu_read_lock();
nsproxy = task_nsproxy(tsk);
if (nsproxy != NULL) {
/ *
* work with the namespaces here
* e.g. get the reference on one of them
* /
} / *
* NULL task_nsproxy() means that this task is
* almost dead (zombie)
* /
rcu_read_unlock();
This patch has passed the review by Eric and Oleg :) and,
of course, tested.

The function dev_deactivate is supposed to only return when
all outstanding transmissions have completed. Unfortunately
it is possible for store operations in the driver's transmit
function to only become visible after dev_deactivate returns.
This patch fixes this by taking the queue lock after we see
the end of the queue run. This ensures that all effects of
any previous transmit calls are visible.
If however we detect that there is another queue run occuring,
then we'll warn about it because this should never happen as
we have pointed dev->qdisc to noop_qdisc within the same queue
lock earlier in the functino.

There is a justifying patch for Stephen's patches. Stephen's patches
disallows using a port range of one single port and brakes the meaning
of the 'remaining' variable, in some places it has different meaning.
My patch gives back the sense of 'remaining' variable. It should mean
how many ports are remaining and nothing else. Also my patch allows
using a single port.
I sure we must be able to use mentioned port range, this does not
restricted by documentation and does not brake current behavior.

That's the deref of fp:
static void sk_filter_delayed_uncharge(struct sock *sk, struct sk_filter *fp)
{
unsigned int size = sk_filter_len(fp);
...
That is called from sk_attach_filter():
...
rcu_read_lock_bh();
old_fp = rcu_dereference(sk->sk_filter);
rcu_assign_pointer(sk->sk_filter, fp);
rcu_read_unlock_bh();
sk_filter_delayed_uncharge(sk, old_fp);
return 0;
...
So, looks like rcu_dereference() returned NULL. I don't know the
filter code at all, but it seems like it might be a valid case?
sk_detach_filter() seems to handle a NULL sk_filter, at least.
So, this needs review by someone who knows the filter, but it fixes the
problem for me:

No one has bothered to set strategy routine for the the netfilter sysctls that

So it appears the sys_sysctl path is unused and untested, so this patch

Some APs send management frames with junk padding after the last IE.
We already account for a similar problem with some Apple Airport
devices, but at least one device is known to send more than a single
extra byte. The device in question is the Draytek Vigor2900:
http://www.draytek.com.au/products/Vigor2900.php
The junk in question looks like an IE that runs off the end of the
frame. This cause us to return ParseFailed. Since the frame in
question is an association response, this causes us to fail to associate
with this AP.
The return code from ieee802_11_parse_elems is superfluous.
All callers still check for the presence of the specific IEs that
interest them anyway. So, remove the return code so the parse never
"fails".

While looking at a net driver with the following construct,
if (!netif_carrier_ok(dev))
netif_carrier_on(dev);
it stuck me that the netif_carrier_ok() check was redundant, since
netif_carrier_on() checks bit __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER anyway. This is
the same reason why netif_queue_stopped() need not be called prior to
netif_wake_queue().
This is true, but there is however an unwanted side effect from assuming
that netif_carrier_on() can be called multiple times: it touches the
watchdog, regardless of pre-existing carrier state.
The fix: move watchdog-up inside the bit-cleared code path.

This patch adds a new field to xfrm states called inner_mode. The existing
mode object is renamed to outer_mode.
This is the first part of an attempt to fix inter-family transforms. As it
is we always use the outer family when determining which mode to use. As a
result we may end up shoving IPv4 packets into netfilter6 and vice versa.
What we really want is to use the inner family for the first part of outbound
processing and the outer family for the second part. For inbound processing
we'd use the opposite pairing.
I've also added a check to prevent silly combinations such as transport mode
with inter-family transforms.

For IPv4 we were using the bottom route's peer instead of the top one.
This is wrong because the peer is only used by TCP to keep track of
information about the TCP destination address which certainly does not
live in the bottom route.
This patch fixes that which allows us to get rid of the family check
since the bottom route could be IPv6 while the top one must always
be IPv4.
I've also changed the other fields which are IPv4-specific to get the
info from the top route instead of potentially bogus data from the

It is convenient to have a pointer from xfrm_state to address-specific
functions such as the output function for a family. Currently the
address-specific policy code calls out to the xfrm state code to get
those pointers when we could get it in an easier way via the state
itself.
This patch adds an xfrm_state_afinfo to xfrm_mode (since they're
address-specific) and changes the policy code to use it. I've also
added an owner field to do reference counting on the module providing
the afinfo even though it isn't strictly necessary today since IPv6
can't be unloaded yet.

Currently BEET mode does not reinject the packet back into the stack
like tunnel mode does. Since BEET should behave just like tunnel mode
this is incorrect.
This patch fixes this by introducing a flags field to xfrm_mode that
tells the IPsec code whether it should terminate and reinject the packet
back into the stack.
It then sets the flag for BEET and tunnel mode.

The 9P2000 protocol requires the authentication and permission checks to be
done in the file server. For that reason every user that accesses the file
server tree has to authenticate and attach to the server separately.
Multiple users can share the same connection to the server.
Currently v9fs does a single attach and executes all I/O operations as a
single user. This makes using v9fs in multiuser environment unsafe as it
depends on the client doing the permission checking.
This patch improves the 9P2000 support by allowing every user to attach
separately. The patch defines three modes of access (new mount option
'access'):
- attach-per-user (access=user) (default mode for 9P2000.u)
If a user tries to access a file served by v9fs for the first time, v9fs
sends an attach command to the server (Tattach) specifying the user. If
the attach succeeds, the user can access the v9fs tree.
As there is no uname->uid (string->integer) mapping yet, this mode works
only with the 9P2000.u dialect.
- allow only one user to access the tree (access=<uid>)
Only the user with uid can access the v9fs tree. Other users that attempt
to access it will get EPERM error.
- do all operations as a single user (access=any) (default for 9P2000)
V9fs does a single attach and all operations are done as a single user.
If this mode is selected, the v9fs behavior is identical with the current
one.

Why do we need r/o bind mounts?
This feature allows a read-only view into a read-write filesystem. In the
process of doing that, it also provides infrastructure for keeping track of
the number of writers to any given mount.
This has a number of uses. It allows chroots to have parts of filesystems
writable. It will be useful for containers in the future because users may
have root inside a container, but should not be allowed to write to
somefilesystems. This also replaces patches that vserver has had out of the
tree for several years.
It allows security enhancement by making sure that parts of your filesystem
read-only (such as when you don't trust your FTP server), when you don't want
to have entire new filesystems mounted, or when you want atime selectively
updated. I've been using the following script to test that the feature is
working as desired. It takes a directory and makes a regular bind and a r/o
bind mount of it. It then performs some normal filesystem operations on the
three directories, including ones that are expected to fail, like creating a
file on the r/o mount.
This patch:
Some filesystems forego the vfs and may_open() and create their own 'struct

Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous to make it easier for
NFS to make use of them. There are now accessor functions that do
asynchronous constructions, a wait function to wait for construction to
complete, and a completion function for the key type to indicate completion
of construction.
Note that the construction queue is now gone. Instead, keys under
construction are linked in to the appropriate keyring in advance, and that
anyone encountering one must wait for it to be complete before they can use
it. This is done automatically for userspace.
The following auxiliary changes are also made:
(1) Key type implementation stuff is split from linux/key.h into
linux/key-type.h.
(2) AF_RXRPC provides a way to allocate null rxrpc-type keys so that AFS does
not need to call key_instantiate_and_link() directly.
(3) Adjust the debugging macros so that they're -Wformat checked even if
they are disabled, and make it so they can be enabled simply by defining
__KDEBUG to be consistent with other code of mine.
(3) Documentation.

TCP packets all have writable heads, that is, even though it's cloned, it is
writable up to the end of the TCP header. This patch makes skb_checksum_help
aware of this fact by using skb_clone_writable and avoiding a copy for TCP.
I've also modified the BUG_ON tests to be unsigned. The only case where this
makes a difference is if csum_start points to a location before skb->data.
Since skb->data should always include the header where the checksum field
is (and all currently callers adhere to that), this change is safe and may

Detection implemented with lost_retrans must work also when
fastpath is taken, yet most of the queue is skipped including
(very likely) those retransmitted skb's we're interested in.
This problem appeared when the hints got added, which removed
a need to always walk over the whole write queue head.
Therefore decicion for the lost_retrans worker loop entry must
be separated from the sacktag processing more than it was
necessary before.
It turns out to be problematic to optimize the worker loop
very heavily because ack_seqs of skb may have a number of
discontinuity points. Maybe similar approach as currently is
implemented could be attempted but that's becoming more and
more complex because the trend is towards less skb walking
in sacktag marker. Trying a simple work until all rexmitted
skbs heve been processed approach.
Maybe after(highest_sack_end_seq, tp->high_seq) checking is not
sufficiently accurate and causes entry too often in no-work-to-do
cases. Since that's not known, I've separated solution to that
from this patch.
Noticed because of report against a related problem from TAKANO
Ryousei <takano@axe-inc.co.jp>. He also provided a patch to
that part of the problem. This patch includes solution to it

I was reading tcp_enter_loss while looking for Cedric's bug and
noticed bytes_acked adjustment is missing from FRTO side.
Since bytes_acked will only be used in tcp_cong_avoid, I think
it's safe to assume RTO would be spurious. During FRTO cwnd
will be not controlled by tcp_cong_avoid and if FRTO calls for
conventional recovery, cwnd is adjusted and the result of wrong
assumption is cleared from bytes_acked. If RTO was in fact
spurious, we did normal ABC already and can continue without
any additional adjustments.

From RFC 3493, Section 5.2:
IPV6_MULTICAST_IF
Set the interface to use for outgoing multicast packets. The
argument is the index of the interface to use. If the
interface index is specified as zero, the system selects the
interface (for example, by looking up the address in a routing
table and using the resulting interface).
This patch adds support for (index == 0) to reset the value to it's
original state, allowing the system to choose the best interface. IPv4
already behaves this way.

With your description I could reproduce the bug and actually you were
completely right: the code above is incorrect. Somehow I was able to
misread RFC1122 and mixed the roles :-(:
When a connection is >>closed actively<<, it MUST linger in
TIME-WAIT state for a time 2xMSL (Maximum Segment Lifetime).
However, it MAY >>accept<< a new SYN from the remote TCP to
reopen the connection directly from TIME-WAIT state, if it:
[...]
The fix is as follows: if the receiver initiated an active close, then the
sender may reopen the connection - otherwise try to figure out if we hold
a dead connection.

As discussed before, this patch provides userland with a way to access
relevant options in Router Advertisements, after they are processed
and validated by the kernel. Extra options are processed in a generic
way; this patch only exports RDNSS options described in RFC5006, but
support to control which options are exported could be easily added.
A new rtnetlink message type is defined, to transport Neighbor
Discovery options, along with optional context information. At the
moment only the address of the router sending an RDNSS option is
included, but additional attributes may be later defined, if needed by
new use cases.

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.
Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.
Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

There are currently two ways to determine whether the netlink socket is a
kernel one or a user one. This patch creates a single inline call for
this purpose and unifies all the calls in the af_netlink.c
No similar calls are found outside af_netlink.c.

There is no need to process outstanding netlink user->kernel packets
during rtnl_unlock now. There is no rtnl_trylock in the rtnetlink_rcv
anymore.
Normal code path is the following:
netlink_sendmsg
netlink_unicast
netlink_sendskb
skb_queue_tail
netlink_data_ready
rtnetlink_rcv
mutex_lock(&rtnl_mutex);
netlink_run_queue(sk, qlen, &rtnetlink_rcv_msg);
mutex_unlock(&rtnl_mutex);
So, it is possible, that packets can be present in the rtnl->sk_receive_queue
during rtnl_unlock, but there is no need to process them at that moment as
rtnetlink_rcv for that packet is pending.

Expansion of original idea from Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org>
Add robustness and locking to the local_port_range sysctl.
1. Enforce that low < high when setting.
2. Use seqlock to ensure atomic update.
The locking might seem like overkill, but there are
cases where sysadmin might want to change value in the
middle of a DoS attack.
