* [ICSK]: Move generalised functions from tcp to inet_connection_sockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-293-10/+7
| | | | | | | | | | This also improves reqsk_queue_prune and renames it to inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune, as it deals with both inet_connection_sock and inet_request_sock objects, not just with request_sock ones thus belonging to inet_request_sock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Development to this point was done on a subversion repository at: http://oops.ghostprotocols.net:81/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/dccp-2.6/ This repository will be kept at this site for the foreseable future, so that interested parties can see the history of this code, attributions, etc. If I ever decide to take this offline I'll provide the full history at some other suitable place.

| | | | | | | | | | With this we're very close to getting all of the current TCP refactorings in my dccp-2.6 tree merged, next changeset will export some functions needed by the current DCCP code and then dccp-2.6.git will be born!

* [ICSK]: Generalise tcp_listen_{start,stop}Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-293-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | This also moved inet_iif from tcp to inet_hashtables.h, as it is needed by the inet_lookup callers, perhaps this needs a bit of polishing, but for now seems fine. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NET]: Just move the inet_connection_sock function from tcp sourcesArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-293-158/+161
| | | | | | | | | Completing the previous changeset, this also generalises tcp_v4_synq_add, renaming it to inet_csk_reqsk_queue_hash_add, already geing used in the DCCP tree, which I plan to merge RSN.

* [NET]: Introduce inet_connection_sockArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-299-159/+215
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This creates struct inet_connection_sock, moving members out of struct tcp_sock that are shareable with other INET connection oriented protocols, such as DCCP, that in my private tree already uses most of these members. The functions that operate on these members were renamed, using a inet_csk_ prefix while not being moved yet to a new file, so as to ease the review of these changes.

* [INET]: Generalise tcp_tw_bucket, aka TIME_WAIT socketsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-296-207/+262
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This paves the way to generalise the rest of the sock ID lookup routines and saves some bytes in TCPv4 TIME_WAIT sockets on distro kernels (where IPv6 is always built as a module): [root@qemu ~]# grep tw_sock /proc/slabinfo tw_sock_TCPv6 0 0 128 31 1 tw_sock_TCP 0 0 96 41 1 [root@qemu ~]# Now if a protocol wants to use the TIME_WAIT generic infrastructure it only has to set the sk_prot->twsk_obj_size field with the size of its inet_timewait_sock derived sock and proto_register will create sk_prot->twsk_slab, for now its only for INET sockets, but we can introduce timewait_sock later if some non INET transport protocolo wants to use this stuff. Next changesets will take advantage of this new infrastructure to generalise even more TCP code.

* [INET]: Generalise tcp_v4_hash & tcp_unhashArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-291-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It really just makes the existing code be a helper function that tcp_v4_hash and tcp_unhash uses, specifying the right inet_hashinfo, tcp_hashinfo. One thing I'll investigate at some point is to have the inet_hashinfo pointer in sk_prot, so that we get all the hashtable information from the sk pointer, this can lead to some extra indirections that may well hurt performance/code size, we'll see. Ultimate idea would be that sk_prot would provide _all_ the information about a protocol implementation. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | Lots of places just needs the states, not even linux/tcp.h, where this enum was, needs it.

| | | | | | | | | | Also expose all of the tcp_hashinfo members, i.e. killing those tcp_ehash, etc macros, this will more clearly expose already generic functions and some that need just a bit of work to become generic, as we'll see in the upcoming changesets.

* [NETFILTER]: don't use nested attributes for conntrack_expectHarald Welte2005-08-291-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | We used to use nested nfattr structures for ip_conntrack_expect. This is bogus, since ip_conntrack and ip_conntrack_expect are communicated in different netlink message types. both should be encoded at the top level attributes, no extra nesting required. This patch addresses the issue. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NETFILTER]: attribute count is an attribute of message type, not subsytemHarald Welte2005-08-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Prior to this patch, every nfnetlink subsystem had to specify it's attribute count. However, in reality the attribute count depends on the message type within the subsystem, not the subsystem itself. This patch moves 'attr_count' from 'struct nfnetlink_subsys' into nfnl_callback to fix this. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NETFILTER]: Fix multiple problems with the conntrack event cachePatrick McHardy2005-08-292-25/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | refcnt underflow: the reference count is decremented when a conntrack entry is removed from the hash but it is not incremented when entering new entries. missing protection of process context against softirq context: all cache operations need to locally disable softirqs to avoid races. Additionally the event cache can't be initialized when a packet enteres the conntrack code but needs to be initialized whenever we cache an event and the stored conntrack entry doesn't match the current one. incorrect flushing of the event cache in ip_ct_iterate_cleanup: without real locking we can't flush the cache for different CPUs without incurring races. The cache for different CPUs can only be flushed when no packets are going through the code. ip_ct_iterate_cleanup doesn't need to drop all references, so flushing is moved to the cleanup path.

* [INET]: Move bind_hash from tcp_sk to inet_skArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-293-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This should really be in a inet_connection_sock, but I'm leaving it for a later optimization, when some more fields common to INET transport protocols now in tcp_sk or inet_sk will be chunked out into inet_connection_sock, for now its better to concentrate on getting the changes in the core merged to leave the DCCP tree with only DCCP specific code. Next changesets will take advantage of this move to generalise things like tcp_bind_hash, tcp_put_port, tcp_inherit_port, making the later receive a inet_hashinfo parameter, and even __tcp_tw_hashdance, etc in the future, when tcp_tw_bucket gets transformed into the struct timewait_sock hierarchy. tcp_destroy_sock also is eligible as soon as tcp_orphan_count gets moved to sk_prot. A cascade of incremental changes will ultimately make the tcp_lookup functions be fully generic. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [INET]: Just rename the TCP hashtable functions/structs to inet_Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-292-52/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is to break down the complexity of the series of patches, making it very clear that this one just does: 1. renames tcp_ prefixed hashtable functions and data structures that were already mostly generic to inet_ to share it with DCCP and other INET transport protocols. 2. Removes not used functions (__tb_head & tb_head) 3. Removes some leftover prototypes in the headers (tcp_bucket_unlock & tcp_v4_build_header) Next changesets will move tcp_sk(sk)->bind_hash to inet_sock so that we can make functions such as tcp_inherit_port, __tcp_inherit_port, tcp_v4_get_port, __tcp_put_port, generic and get others like tcp_destroy_sock closer to generic (tcp_orphan_count will go to sk->sk_prot to allow this). Eventually most of these functions will be used passing the transport protocol inet_hashinfo structure. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@ghostprotocols.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add ctnetlink subsystem for userspace-access to ip_conntrack table. This allows reading and updating of existing entries, as well as creating new ones (and new expect's) via nfnetlink. Please note the 'strange' byte order: nfattr (tag+length) are in host byte order, while the payload is always guaranteed to be in network byte order.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a notifier chain based event mechanism for ip_conntrack state changes. As opposed to the previous implementations in patch-o-matic, we do no longer need a field in the skb to achieve this. Thanks to the valuable input from Patrick McHardy and Rusty on the idea of a per_cpu implementation. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
