* pktgen: Fix multiqueue handlingEric Dumazet2009-10-041-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not currently possible to instruct pktgen to use one selected tx queue. When Robert added multiqueue support in commit 45b270f8, he added an interval (queue_map_min, queue_map_max), and his code doesnt take into account the case of min = max, to select one tx queue exactly. I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender. This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one. Also updates Documentation to reflect Robert changes.

* sctp: Sysctl configuration for IPv4 Address ScopingBhaskar Dutta2009-09-041-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a new sysctl option to make IPv4 Address Scoping configurable <draft-stewart-tsvwg-sctp-ipv4-00.txt>. In networking environments where DNAT rules in iptables prerouting chains convert destination IP's to link-local/private IP addresses, SCTP connections fail to establish as the INIT chunk is dropped by the kernel due to address scope match failure. For example to support overlapping IP addresses (same IP address with different vlan id) a Layer-5 application listens on link local IP's, and there is a DNAT rule that maps the destination IP to a link local IP. Such applications never get the SCTP INIT if the address-scoping draft is strictly followed. This sysctl configuration allows SCTP to function in such unconventional networking environments. Sysctl options: 0 - Disable IPv4 address scoping draft altogether 1 - Enable IPv4 address scoping (default, current behavior) 2 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 private addresses in init/init-ack 3 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 link local address in init/init-ack Signed-off-by: Bhaskar Dutta <bhaskar.dutta@globallogic.com> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

* | [PATCH] net core: Some interface flags not returned by SIOCGIFFLAGSJohn Dykstra2009-06-111-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit b00055aacdb172c05067612278ba27265fcd05ce " [NET] core: add RFC2863 operstate" defined new interface flag values. Its documentation specified that these flags could be accessed from user space via SIOCGIFFLAGS. However, this does not work because the new flags do not fit in that ioctl's argument width. Change the documentation to match the code's behavior. Also change the source to explicitly show the truncation. This _should_ have no effect on executable code, and did not with gcc 4.2.4 generating x86 code. A new ioctl could be defined to return all interface flags to user space. However, since this has been broken for three years with no one complaining, there doesn't seem much need. They are still accessible via netlink.

* | tcp: extend ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECNIlpo Järvinen2009-05-041-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | User space can request hardware and/or software time stamping. Reporting of the result(s) via a new control message is enabled separately for each field in the message because some of the fields may require additional computation and thus cause overhead. User space can tell the different kinds of time stamps apart and choose what suits its needs. When a TX timestamp operation is requested, the TX skb will be cloned and the clone will be time stamped (in hardware or software) and added to the socket error queue of the skb, if the skb has a socket associated with it. The actual TX timestamp will reach userspace as a RX timestamp on the cloned packet. If timestamping is requested and no timestamping is done in the device driver (potentially this may use hardware timestamping), it will be done in software after the device's start_hard_xmit routine.

* dccp ccid-2: Phase out the use of boolean Ack Vector sysctlGerrit Renker2008-12-081-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the use of the sysctl and the minisock variable for the Send Ack Vector feature, as it now is handled fully dynamically via feature negotiation (i.e. when CCID-2 is enabled, Ack Vectors are automatically enabled as per RFC 4341, 4.). Using a sysctl in parallel to this implementation would open the door to crashes, since much of the code relies on tests of the boolean minisock / sysctl variable. Thus, this patch replaces all tests of type if (dccp_msk(sk)->dccpms_send_ack_vector) /* ... */ with if (dp->dccps_hc_rx_ackvec != NULL) /* ... */ The dccps_hc_rx_ackvec is allocated by the dccp_hdlr_ackvec() when feature negotiation concluded that Ack Vectors are to be used on the half-connection. Otherwise, it is NULL (due to dccp_init_sock/dccp_create_openreq_child), so that the test is a valid one. The activation handler for Ack Vectors is called as soon as the feature negotiation has concluded at the * server when the Ack marking the transition RESPOND => OPEN arrives; * client after it has sent its ACK, marking the transition REQUEST => PARTOPEN. Adding the sequence number of the Response packet to the Ack Vector has been removed, since (a) connection establishment implies that the Response has been received; (b) the CCIDs only look at packets received in the (PART)OPEN state, i.e. this entry will always be ignored; (c) it can not be used for anything useful - to detect loss for instance, only packets received after the loss can serve as pseudo-dupacks. There was a FIXME to change the error code when dccp_ackvec_add() fails. I removed this after finding out that: * the check whether ackno < ISN is already made earlier, * this Response is likely the 1st packet with an Ackno that the client gets, * so when dccp_ackvec_add() fails, the reason is likely not a packet error.

* dccp: Remove manual influence on NDP Count featureGerrit Renker2008-12-081-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Updating the NDP count feature is handled automatically now: * for CCID-2 it is disabled, since the code does not use NDP counts; * for CCID-3 it is enabled, as NDP counts are used to determine loss lengths. Allowing the user to change NDP values leads to unpredictable and failing behaviour, since it is then possible to disable NDP counts even when they are needed (e.g. in CCID-3). This means that only those user settings are sensible that agree with the values for Send NDP Count implied by the choice of CCID. But those settings are already activated by the feature negotiation (CCID dependency tracking), hence this form of support is redundant. At startup the initialisation of the NDP count feature uses the default value of 0, which is done implicitly by the zeroing-out of the socket when it is allocated. If the choice of CCID or feature negotiation enables NDP count, this will then be updated via the NDP activation handler.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The TX/RX CCIDs of the minisock are now redundant: similar to the Ack Vector case, their value equals initially that of the sysctl, but at the end of feature negotiation may be something different. The old interface removed by this patch thus has been replaced by the newer interface to dynamically query the currently loaded CCIDs. Also removed are the constructors for the TX CCID and the RX CCID, since the switch "rx <-> non-rx" is done by the handler in minisocks.c (and the handler is the only place in the code where CCIDs are loaded).
