This * resolves a FIXME - DCCPv6 connections started all with an initial sequence number of 1; * provides a redirection `secure_dccpv6_sequence_number' in case the init_sequence_v6 code should be updated later; * concentrates the update of S.GAR into dccp_connect_init(); * removes a duplicate dccp_update_gss() in ipv4.c; * uses inet->dport instead of usin->sin_port, due to the following assignment in dccp_v4_connect(): inet->dport = usin->sin_port; Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

This patch removes the following redundancies: 1) The test skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IPV6) in dccp_v6_init_sequence is always true since * dccp_v6_conn_request() is the only calling function * dccp_v6_conn_request() redirects all skb's with ETH_P_IP to dccp_v4_conn_request() 2) The first argument, `struct sock *sk', of dccp_v{4,6}_init_sequence() is never used. (This is similar for tcp_v{4,6}_init_sequence, an analogous patch has been submitted to netdev and merged.) By the way - are the `sport' / `dport' arguments in the right order? I have made them consistent among calls but they seem to be in the reverse order. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

In order to make their function clearer and obtain a consistent naming scheme to identify sysctls, all existing DCCP sysctls have been prefixed with `sysctl_dccp', following the same convention as used by TCP. Feature-specific sysctls retain the `feat' in the middle, although the `default' has been dropped, since it is obvious from use. Also removed a duplicate `dccp_feat_default_sequence_window' in ipv4.c. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

This adds 3 sysctls which govern the retransmission behaviour of DCCP control packets (3way handshake, feature negotiation). It removes 4 FIXMEs from the code. The close resemblance of sysctl variables to their TCP analogues is emphasised not only by their name, but also by giving them the same initial values. This is useful since there is not much practical experience with DCCP yet. Furthermore, with regard to the previous patch, it is now possible to limit the number of keepalive-Responses by setting net.dccp.default.request_retries (also a bit like in TCP). Lastly, added documentation of all existing DCCP sysctls. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com>

Gerrit Renker authored
This updates program documentation: spell out precise conditions about which packets are eligible for retransmission (which is actually quite hard to extract from RFC 4340). It is based on the following table derived from RFC 4340: +-----------+---------------------------------+---------------------+ | Type | Retransmit? | Remark | +-----------+---------------------------------+---------------------+ | Request | in client-REQUEST state | sec. 8.1.1 | | Response | NEVER | SHOULD NOT, 8.1.3 | | Data | NEVER | unreliable protocol | | Ack | possible in client-PARTOPEN | sec. 8.1.5 | | DataAck | NEVER | unreliable protocol | | CloseReq | only in server-CLOSEREQ state | MUST, sec. 8.3 | | Close | in node-CLOSING state | MUST, sec. 8.3 | +-----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ | Reset | only in response to other packets | | Sync | only in response to sequence-invalid packets (7.5.4) | | SyncAck | only in response to Sync packets | +-----------+-------------------------------------------------------+ Hence the only packets eligible for retransmission are: * Requests in client-REQUEST state (sec. 8.1.1) * Acks in client-PARTOPEN state (sec. 8.1.5) * CloseReq in server-CLOSEREQ state (sec. 8.3) * Close in node-CLOSING state (sec. 8.3) I had meant to put in a check for these types too, but have left that for later.

Account for the netlink message header size directly in nlmsg_new() instead of relying on the caller calculate it correctly. Replaces error handling of message construction functions when constructing notifications with bug traps since a failure implies a bug in calculating the size of the skb.

This patch does the following: a) introduces variable-length checksums as specified in [RFC 4340, sec. 9.2] b) provides necessary socket options and documentation as to how to use them c) basic support and infrastructure for the Minimum Checksum Coverage feature [RFC 4340, sec. 9.2.1]: acceptability tests, user notification and user interface In addition, it (1) fixes two bugs in the DCCPv4 checksum computation: * pseudo-header used checksum_len instead of skb->len * incorrect checksum coverage calculation based on dccph_x (2) removes dccp_v4_verify_checksum() since it reduplicates code of the checksum computation; code calling this function is updated accordingly. (3) now uses skb_checksum(), which is safer than checksum_partial() if the sk_buff has is a non-linear buffer (has pages attached to it). (4) fixes an outstanding TODO item: * If P.CsCov is too large for the packet size, drop packet and return. The code has been tested with applications, the latest version of tcpdump now comes with support for partial DCCP checksums.

This patch fixes data being spewed into the logs continually. As the code stood if there was a large queue and long delays timeo would go down to zero and never get reset. This fixes it by resetting timeo. Put constant into header as well.

This does the same for ipv6.c as the preceding one does for ipv4.c: Only the inet_connection_sock_af_ops forward declarations remain, since at least dccp_ipv6_mapped has a circular dependency to dccp_v6_request_recv_sock.

This patch removes two functions, the send_ack functions of request_sock, which are not called/used by the DCCP code. It is correct that these functions are not called, below is a justification why calling these functions (on a passive socket in the LISTEN/RESPOND state) would mean a DCCP protocol violation. A) Background: using request_sock in TCP:

Gerrit Renker noticed dccp_tw_deschedule and submitted a patch with a FIXME, but as he suggests in the same patch the best thing is to just ditch this declaration, while doing that also noticed that tcp_tw_count is as well not defined anywhere, so ditch it too.

This is a code simplification and was singled out from the DCCPv6 Oops patch on http://www.mail-archive.com/dccp@vger.kernel.org/msg00600.html It mainly makes the code consistent between ipv{4,6}.c for the functions dccp_v4_rcv dccp_v6_rcv and removes the do_time_wait label to simplify code somewhat.

The data itself is already charged to the SKB, doing the skb_set_owner_w() just generates a lot of noise and extra atomics we don't really need. Lmbench improvements on lat_tcp are minimal: before: TCP latency using localhost: 23.2701 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 23.1994 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 23.2257 microseconds after: TCP latency using localhost: 22.8380 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 22.9465 microseconds TCP latency using localhost: 22.8462 microseconds Signed-off-by: David S.

An alternate solution would be to make the digest a pointer, allocate it in sctp_endpoint_init() and free it in sctp_endpoint_destroy(). I guess I should have originally done it this way...

We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for example) On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small' sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit. This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter, depending of : - net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128) - net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128) - backlog value given by user application (2nd parameter of listen()) For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of kmalloc(). We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn & tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM usage.

Based on patch by Patrick McHardy. Add a new option, NET_SCH_FIFO, which provides a simple fifo qdisc without requiring CONFIG_NET_SCHED. The d80211 stack needs a generic fifo qdisc for WME. At present it uses net/d80211/fifo_qdisc.c which is functionally equivalent to sch_fifo.c. This patch will allow the d80211 stack to remove net/d80211/fifo_qdisc.c and use sch_fifo.c instead.
