Alexey Dobriyan 2c8c1e7297 net: spread __net_init, __net_exit
__net_init/__net_exit are apparently not going away, so use them
to full extent.

In some cases __net_init was removed, because it was called from
__net_exit code.

Eric W. Biederman 91e2ff3528 net: Teach vlans to cleanup as a pernet subsystem
Take advantage of the fact that an explicit rtnl_kill_links is
unnecessary (and skipping it improves batching), as network namespace
exit calls dellink on all remaining virtual devices, and
rtnl_link_unregister calls dellink on all outstanding devices in that
network namespace.  To do this we need to leave the vlan proc
directories in place until after network device exit time, which is
done by using register_pernet_subsys instead of
register_pernet_device.

Patrick McHardy 5e75659305 vlan: support "loose binding" to the underlying network device
Currently the UP/DOWN state of VLANs is synchronized to the state of the
underlying device, meaning all VLANs are set down once the underlying
device is set down. This causes all routes to the VLAN devices to vanish.

Add a flag to specify a "loose binding" mode, in which only the operstate
is transfered, but the VLAN device state is independant.

Eric Dumazet 9793241fe9 vlan: Precise RX stats accounting
With multi queue devices, its possible that several cpus call
vlan RX routines simultaneously for the same vlan device.

We update RX stats counter without any locking, so we can
get slightly wrong counters.

One possible fix is to use percpu counters, to get precise
accounting and also get guarantee of no cache line ping pongs
between cpus.

Note: this adds 16 bytes (32 bytes on 64bit arches) of percpu
data per vlan device.

Eric W. Biederman 81adee47df net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation.
There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the
network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier
to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace
with a well known name.

We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace
for the new device exists through the life of the call.  To keep
that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing
logic into rtnl_link_get_net.

In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace
to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base
device source network namespace.

Eric Dumazet 05423b2413 vlan: allow null VLAN ID to be used
We currently use a 16 bit field (vlan_tci) to store VLAN ID/PRIO on a skb.

Null value is used as a special value, meaning vlan tagging not enabled.
This forbids use of null vlan ID.

As pointed by David, some drivers use the 3 high order bits (PRIO)

As VLAN ID is 12 bits, we can use the remaining bit (CFI) as a flag, and
allow null VLAN ID.

In case future code really wants to use VLAN_CFI_MASK, we'll have to use
a bit outside of vlan_tci.

#define VLAN_PRIO_MASK         0xe000 /* Priority Code Point */
#define VLAN_PRIO_SHIFT        13
#define VLAN_CFI_MASK          0x1000 /* Canonical Format Indicator */
#define VLAN_TAG_PRESENT       VLAN_CFI_MASK
#define VLAN_VID_MASK          0x0fff /* VLAN Identifier */

I also removed a possibility to specify the length of the address

change is not so trivial.

Eric Dumazet 93f154b594 net: release dst entry in dev_hard_start_xmit()
One point of contention in high network loads is the dst_release() performed
when a transmited skb is freed. This is because NIC tx completion calls
dev_kree_skb() long after original call to dev_queue_xmit(skb).

CPU cache is cold and the atomic op in dst_release() stalls. On SMP, this is
quite visible if one CPU is 100% handling softirqs for a network device,
since dst_clone() is done by other cpus, involving cache line ping pongs.

It seems right place to release dst is in dev_hard_start_xmit(), for most
devices but ones that are virtual, and some exceptions.

David Miller suggested to define a new device flag, set in alloc_netdev_mq()
(so that most devices set it at init time), and carefuly unset in devices
which dont want a NULL skb->dst in their ndo_start_xmit().

List of devices that must clear this flag is :

- loopback device, because it calls netif_rx() and quoting Patrick :
    "ip_route_input() doesn't accept loopback addresses, so loopback packets
     already need to have a dst_entry attached."
- appletalk/ipddp.c : needs skb->dst in its xmit function

- And all devices that call again dev_queue_xmit() from their xmit function
(as some classifiers need skb->dst) : bonding, vlan, macvlan, eql, ifb, hdlc_fr

Jay Vosburgh adc667e84f vlan: update vlan carrier state for admin up/down
Currently, the VLAN event handler does not adjust the VLAN
device's carrier state when the real device or the VLAN device is set
administratively up or down.

	The following patch adds a transfer of operating state from the
real device to the VLAN device when the real device is administratively
set up or down, and sets the carrier state up or down during init, open
and close of the VLAN device.

	This permits observers above the VLAN device that care about the
carrier state (bonding's link monitor, for example) to receive updates
for administrative changes by more closely mimicing the behavior of real
devices.

Herbert Xu 1db9e29bb0 gro: Normalise skb before bypassing GRO on netpoll VLAN path
Hi:

gro: Normalise skb before bypassing GRO on netpoll VLAN path

When we detect netpoll RX on the GRO VLAN path we bail out and
call the normal VLAN receive handler.  However, the packet needs
to be normalised by calling eth_type_trans since that's what the
normal path expects (normally the GRO path does the fixup).

This patch adds the necessary call to vlan_gro_frags.

Herbert Xu d1c76af9e2 GRO: Move netpoll checks to correct location
As my netpoll fix for net doesn't really work for net-next, we
need this update to move the checks into the right place.  As it
stands we may pass freed skbs to netpoll_receive_skb.

This patch also introduces a netpoll_rx_on function to avoid GRO
completely if we're invoked through netpoll.  This might seem
paranoid but as netpoll may have an external receive hook it's
better to be safe than sorry.  I don't think we need this for
2.6.29 though since there's nothing immediately broken by it.

This patch also moves the GRO_* return values to netdevice.h since
VLAN needs them too (I tried to avoid this originally but alas
this seems to be the easiest way out).  This fixes a bug in VLAN
where it continued to use the old return value 2 instead of the
correct GRO_DROP.

Herbert Xu 4ead443163 netpoll: Add drop checks to all entry points
The netpoll entry checks are required to ensure that we don't
receive normal packets when invoked via netpoll.  Unfortunately
it only ever worked for the netif_receive_skb/netif_rx entry
points.  The VLAN (and subsequently GRO) entry point didn't
have the check and therefore can trigger all sorts of weird
problems.

This patch adds the netpoll check to all entry points.

I'm still uneasy with receiving at all under netpoll (which
apparently is only used by the out-of-tree kdump code).  The
reason is it is perfectly legal to receive all data including
headers into highmem if netpoll is off, but if you try to do
that with netpoll on and someone gets a printk in an IRQ handler                                             
you're going to get a nice BUG_ON.

Herbert Xu 86911732d3 gro: Avoid copying headers of unmerged packets
Unfortunately simplicity isn't always the best.  The fraginfo
interface turned out to be suboptimal.  The problem was quite
obvious.  For every packet, we have to copy the headers from
the frags structure into skb->head, even though for 99% of the
packets this part is immediately thrown away after the merge.

LRO didn't have this problem because it directly read the headers
from the frags structure.

This patch attempts to address this by creating an interface
that allows GRO to access the headers in the first frag without
having to copy it.  Because all drivers that use frags place the
headers in the first frag this optimisation should be enough.

Patrick McHardy 9b22ea5609 net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler
The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet

RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ
context:

Split hardware accelerated VLAN reception into two parts to fix this:

  device lookup, then calls netif_receive_skb()/netif_rx()

- vlan_hwaccel_do_receive(), which is invoked by netif_receive_skb()
  in softirq context, performs the real reception and delivery to
  packet sockets.

Patrick McHardy acc81e1465 vlan: fix network_header/mac_header adjustments
Lennert Buytenhek points out that the VLAN code incorrectly adjusts
skb->network_header to point in the middle of the VLAN header and
additionally tries to adjust skb->mac_header without checking for
validity.

The network_header should not be touched at all since we're only
adding headers in front of it, mac_header adjustments are not
necessary at all.

Based on patch by Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@wantstofly.org>.

Patrick McHardy 70c03b49b8 vlan: Add GVRP support
Add GVRP support for dynamically registering VLANs with switches.

By default GVRP is disabled because we only support the applicant-only
participant model, which means it should not be enabled on vlans that
are members of a bridge. Since there is currently no way to cleanly
determine that, the user is responsible for enabling it.

The code is pretty small and low impact, its wrapped in a config
option though because it depends on the GARP implementation and
the STP core.

Franck Bui-Huu 82524746c2 rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h
Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.

This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
list.h without creating some circular dependencies.

For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
without including rcupdate.h.  It actually compiles because users of
rcu_dereference() are macros.  Others RCU functions could be used too but
aren't probably because of this.

Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
many changes/troubles.

Pavel Emelyanov 67727184f2 [VLAN]: Reduce memory consumed by vlan_groups
Currently each vlan_groupd contains 8 pointers on arrays with 512
pointers on struct net_device each  :)  Such a construction "in many
cases ... wastes memory".

My proposal is to allow for some of these arrays pointers be NULL,
meaning that there are no devices in it. When a new device is added
to the vlan_group, the appropriate array is allocated.

The check in vlan_group_get_device's is safe, since the pointer
vg->vlan_devices_arrays[x] can only switch from NULL to not-NULL.
The vlan_group_prealloc_vid() is guarded with rtnl lock and is
also safe.

I've checked (I hope that) all the places, that use these arrays
and found, that the register_vlan_dev is the only place, that can
put a vlan device on an empty vlan_group.

Rough calculations shows, that after the patch a setup with a
single vlan dev (or up to 512 vlans with sequential vids) will
occupy approximately 8 times less memory.

The question I have is - does this patch makes sense, or a totally
new structures are required to store the vlan_devs?

addresses from the fibre channel device id assigned by the fabric as

Pavel Emelyanov 3f03e38789 [VLAN]: Fix potential race in vlan_cleanup_module vs vlan_ioctl_handler.
The vlan module cleanup function starts with

	vlan_netlink_fini();
	vlan_ioctl_set(NULL);

The first call removes all the vlan devices and
the second one closes the vlan ioctl.

AFAIS there's a tiny race window between these two
calls - after rtnl unregistered all the vlans, but
the ioctl handler isn't set to NULL yet, user can
manage to call this ioctl and create one vlan device,
and that this function will later BUG_ON seeing
non-emply hashes.

I think, that we must first close the vlan ioctl

Patrick McHardy fffe470a80 [VLAN]: Fix SET_VLAN_INGRESS_PRIORITY_CMD ioctl
Based on report and patch by Doug Kehn <rdkehn@yahoo.com>:

vconfig returns the following error when attempting to execute the
set_ingress_map command:

vconfig: socket or ioctl error for set_ingress_map: Operation not permitted

In vlan.c, vlan_ioctl_handler for SET_VLAN_INGRESS_PRIORITY_CMD
sets err = -EPERM and calls vlan_dev_set_ingress_priority.
vlan_dev_set_ingress_priority is a void function so err remains
at -EPERM and results in the vconfig error (even though the ingress
map was set).

Fix by setting err = 0 after the vlan_dev_set_ingress_priority call.

Eric W. Biederman 881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on

Eric W. Biederman 457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

I tried to preserve bridging code as it was before, but logic is quite
strange - I think we should free skb on error, since it is already
unshared and thus will just leak.

Herbert Xu states:

> +	if ((skb = skb_share_check(skb, GFP_ATOMIC)) == NULL)
> +		goto out;

If this happens it'll be a double-free on skb since we'll
return NF_DROP which makes the caller free it too.

We could return NF_STOLEN to prevent that but I'm not sure
whether that's correct netfilter semantics.  Patrick, could
you please make a call on this?

Patrick McHardy 8c979c26a0 [VLAN]: Fix MAC address handling
The VLAN MAC address handling is broken in multiple ways. When the address
differs when setting it, the real device is put in promiscous mode twice,
but never taken out again. Additionally it doesn't resync when the real
device's address is changed and needlessly puts it in promiscous mode when
the vlan device is still down.

Fix by moving address handling to vlan_dev_open/vlan_dev_stop and properly
deal with address changes in the device notifier. Also switch to
dev_unicast_add (which needs the exact same handling).

Since the set_mac_address handler is identical to the generic ethernet one
with these changes, kill it and use ether_setup().

Arjan van de Ven 5dd8d1e9eb [PATCH] lockdep: annotate vlan net device as being a special class
vlan network devices have devices nesting below it, and are a special
"super class" of normal network devices; split their locks off into a
separate class since they always nest.

Herbert Xu cbb042f9e1 [NET]: Replace skb_pull/skb_postpull_rcsum with skb_pull_rcsum
We're now starting to have quite a number of places that do skb_pull
followed immediately by an skb_postpull_rcsum.  We can merge these two
operations into one function with skb_pull_rcsum.  This makes sense
since most pull operations on receive skb's need to update the
checksum.

I've decided to make this out-of-line since it is fairly big and the
fast path where hardware checksums are enabled need to call
csum_partial anyway.

Since this is a brand new function we get to add an extra check on the
len argument.  As it is most callers of skb_pull ignore its return
value which essentially means that there is no check on the len
argument.

Stefan Rompf ddd7bf9fe4 [VLAN]: translate IF_OPER_DORMANT to netif_dormant_on()
this patch adds support to the VLAN driver to translate IF_OPER_DORMANT of the
underlying device to netif_dormant_on(). Beside clean state forwarding, this
allows running independant userspace supplicants on both the real device and
the stacked VLAN. It depends on my RFC2863 patch.

David S. Miller f2ccd8fa06 [NET]: Kill skb->real_dev
Bonding just wants the device before the skb_bond()
decapsulation occurs, so simply pass that original
device into packet_type->func() as an argument.

It remains to be seen whether we can use this same
exact thing to get rid of skb->input_dev as well.

Tommy Christensen f4637b55ba [VLAN]: Fix early vlan adding leads to not functional device
OK, I can see what's happening here. eth0 doesn't detect link-up until
after a few seconds, so when the vlan interface is opened immediately
after eth0 has been opened, it inherits the link-down state. Subsequently
the vlan interface is never properly activated and are thus unable to
transmit any packets.

dev->state bits are not supposed to be manipulated directly. Something
similar is probably needed for the netif_device_present() bit, although
I don't know how this is meant to work for a virtual device.

Sam Ravnborg 6a2e9b738c [NET]: move config options out to individual protocols
Move the protocol specific config options out to the specific protocols.
With this change net/Kconfig now starts to become readable and serve as a
good basis for further re-structuring.

The menu structure is left almost intact, except that indention is
fixed in most cases. Most visible are the INET changes where several
"depends on INET" are replaced with a single ifdef INET / endif pair.

Several new files were created to accomplish this change - they are
small but serve the purpose that config options are now distributed
out where they belongs.

Jesper Juhl e49332bd12 [PATCH] misc verify_area cleanups
There were still a few comments left refering to verify_area, and two
functions, verify_area_skas & verify_area_tt that just wrap corresponding
access_ok_skas & access_ok_tt functions, just like verify_area does for
access_ok - deprecate those.

There was also a few places that still used verify_area in commented-out
code, fix those up to use access_ok.

After applying this one there should not be anything left but finally
removing verify_area completely, which will happen after a kernel release
or two.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
