* netfilter: ctnetlink: only assign helpers for matching protocolsPatrick McHardy2010-02-032-15/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* netfilter: xt_hashlimit: fix race condition and simplify lockingPatrick McHardy2010-02-031-34/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
* netfilter: xt_TCPMSS: SYN packets are allowed to contain dataSimon Arlott2010-02-021-10/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* IPVS: Allow boot time change of hash sizeCatalin(ux) M. BOIE2010-01-053-15/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 143251 7.7986 vmlinux vmlinux __ticket_spin_lock 140661 7.6576 ip_vs.ko ip_vs.ko ip_vs_conn_in_get 94364 5.1372 vmlinux vmlinux mwait_idle 86267 4.6964 vmlinux vmlinux ip_route_input [ horms@verge.net.au: trivial up-port and minor style fixes ] Signed-off-by: Catalin(ux) M.

| | * mac80211: fix propagation of failed hardware reconfigurationsLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-281-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mac80211 does not propagate failed hardware reconfiguration requests. For suspend and resume this is important due to all the possible issues that can come out of the suspend <-> resume cycle. Not propagating the error means cfg80211 will assume the resume for the device went through fine and mac80211 will continue on trying to poke at the hardware, enable timers, queue work, and so on for a device which is completley unfunctional. The least we can do is to propagate device start issues and warn when this occurs upon resume. A side effect of this patch is we also now propagate the start errors upon harware reconfigurations (non-suspend), but this should also be desirable anyway, there is not point in continuing to reconfigure a device if mac80211 was unable to start the device.

| | * mac80211: fix race with suspend and dynamic_ps_disable_workLuis R. Rodriguez2009-12-281-0/+4

If such calls are made, however, suspend can end up throwing hardware in an unexpected state and making the device unusable upon resume. Fix this by preventing mac80211 to schedule dynamic_ps_disable_work by checking for when mac80211 starts to suspend and starts quiescing. Frames should be allowed to go through though as that is part of the quiescing steps and we do not flush the mac80211 workqueue since it was already done towards the beginning of suspend cycle. The other mac80211 issue will be hanled in the next patch. For further details see refer to the thread: http://marc.info/?t=126144866100001&r=1&w=2 Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Luis R.

In that case, it may happen that mac80211 tries to report the assoc success to cfg80211, but gets blocked on the wdev lock that is held because the user is requesting the deauth. The result is that we run into a warning. This is mostly harmless, but maybe cause an unexpected event to be sent to userspace; we'd send an assoc success event although userspace was no longer expecting that. To fix this, remove the warning and check whether the race happened and in that case abort processing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When fixed bssid is requested when joining an ibss network, incoming beacons that match the configured bssid cause mac80211 to create new sta entries, even before the ibss interface is in joined state.

This can be used to implement userspace-controlled off-channel operations, like Public Action frame exchange on another channel than the operation channel. The off-channel operation should behave similarly to scan, i.e. the local station (if associated) moves into power save mode to request the AP to buffer frames for it and then moves to the other channel to allow the off-channel operation to be completed. The duration parameter can be used to request enough time to receive a response from the target station.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we insert all user-specified IEs before the HT IE for association, and after the HT IE for probe requests. For association, that's correct only if the user-specified IEs are RSN only, incorrect in all other cases including WPA. Change this to split apart the user-specified IEs in two places for association: before the HT IE (e.g. RSN), after the HT IE (generally empty right now I think?) and after WMM (all other vendor-specific IEs). For probes, split the IEs in different places to be correct according to the spec. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

For other purposes, a generic work handling (potentially on another channel) will be useful. To achieve that, this patch moves much of the MLME work handling out of mlme into a new work API. The API can currently handle probing a specific AP, authentication and association. The MLME previously handled probe/authentication as one step and will continue to do so, but they are separate in the new work handling. Work items are RCU-managed to be able to check for existence of an item for a specific frame in the RX path, but they can be re-used which the MLME right now will do for its combined probe/auth step.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As a first step of generalising management work, this renames a few things and puts more information directly into the struct so that auth/assoc need not access the BSS pointer as often -- in fact it can be removed from auth completely. Also since the previous patch made sure a new work item is used for association, we can make the different data a union.

That can lead to confusing behaviour like rejecting scans while authenticated to any AP (but not yet associated.) It also means that it needs to keep track of the work struct while associated for when it gets disassociated (or disassociates.) Change this to free the work struct after the authentication completed successfully and allocate a new one for associating, thereby letting cfg80211 manage the auth state. Another change necessary for this is to tell cfg80211 about all unicast deauth frames sent to mac80211 since now it can no longer check the auth state, but that check was racy anyway.
