net/ipv4: Pass proto as u8 instead of u16 in ip_check_mc_rcu

2015-09-29T23:27:47Z

This patch updates ip_check_mc_rcu so that protocol is passed as a u8 instead of a u16. The motivation is just to avoid any unneeded type transitions since some systems will require an instruction to zero extend a u8 field to a u16. Also it makes it a bit more readable as to the fact that protocol is a u8 so there are no byte ordering changes needed to pass it. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

IGMP: Inhibit reports for local multicast groups

2015-08-28T20:28:47Z

The range of addresses between 224.0.0.0 and 224.0.0.255 inclusive, is reserved for the use of routing protocols and other low-level topology discovery or maintenance protocols, such as gateway discovery and group membership reporting. Multicast routers should not forward any multicast datagram with destination addresses in this range, regardless of its TTL. Currently, IGMP reports are generated for this reserved range of addresses even though a router will ignore this information since it has no purpose. However, the presence of reserved group addresses in an IGMP membership report uses up network bandwidth and can also obscure addresses of interest when inspecting membership reports using packet inspection or debug messages. Although the RFCs for the various version of IGMP (e.g.RFC 3376 for v3) do not specify that the reserved addresses be excluded from membership reports, it should do no harm in doing so. In particular there should be no adverse effect in any IGMP snooping functionality since 224.0.0.x is specifically excluded as per RFC 4541 (IGMP and MLD Snooping Switches Considerations) section 2.1.2. Data Forwarding Rules: 2) Packets with a destination IP (DIP) address in the 224.0.0.X range which are not IGMP must be forwarded on all ports. IGMP reports for local multicast groups can now be optionally inhibited by means of a system control variable (by setting the value to zero) e.g.: echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_link_local_mcast_reports To retain backwards compatibility the previous behaviour is retained by default on system boot or reverted by setting the value back to non-zero e.g.: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_link_local_mcast_reports Signed-off-by: Philip Downey Signed-off-by: David S.

net: Export IGMP/MLD message validation code

2015-05-04T18:49:23Z

With this patch, the IGMP and MLD message validation functions are moved from the bridge code to IPv4/IPv6 multicast files. Some small refactoring was done to enhance readibility and to iron out some differences in behaviour between the IGMP and MLD parsing code (e.g. the skb-cloning of MLD messages is now only done if necessary, just like the IGMP part always did). Finally, these IGMP and MLD message validation functions are exported so that not only the bridge can use it but batman-adv later, too. Signed-off-by: Linus Lüssing Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: implement igmp_qrv sysctl to tune igmp robustness variable

2014-09-05T05:26:14Z

As in IPv6 people might increase the igmp query robustness variable to make sure unsolicited state change reports aren't lost on the network. Add and document this new knob to igmp code. RFCs allow tuning this parameter back to first IGMP RFC, so we also use this setting for all counters, including source specific multicast. Also take over sysctl value when upping the interface and don't reuse the last one seen on the interface.

net: convert resend IGMP to notifier event

2013-07-23T23:52:47Z

Until now, bond_resend_igmp_join_requests() looks for vlans attached to bonding device, bridge where bonding act as port manually. It does not care of other scenarios, like stacked bonds or team device above. Make this more generic and use netdev notifier to propagate the event to upper devices and to actually call ip_mc_rejoin_groups().

igmp: hash a hash table to speedup ip_check_mc_rcu()

2013-06-12T07:25:23Z

After IP route cache removal, multicast applications using a lot of multicast addresses hit a O(N) behavior in ip_check_mc_rcu() Add a per in_device hash table to get faster lookup. This hash table is created only if the number of items in mc_list is above 4.

ipv4: Remove redundant RCU locking in ip_check_mc().

net: typos in comments in include/linux/igmp.h

2011-01-04T19:29:52Z

There are typos in comments in include/linux/igmp.h: 83 #define IGMP_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_QUERY 0x11 /* From RFC1112 */ 84 #define IGMP_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT 0x12 /* Ditto */ [snip] 88 #define IGMPV2_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT 0x16 /* V2 version of 0x11 */ 89 #define IGMP_HOST_LEAVE_MESSAGE 0x17 90 #define IGMPV3_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT 0x22 /* V3 version of 0x11 */ The line 88 and 90 are about REPORT messages. The IGMP_HOST_MEMBERSHIP_REPORT (IGMP V1) value is 0x12. So the comment on line 88 must be /* V2 version of 0x12 */, and the comment on line 90 must be /* V3 version of 0x12 */.

bonding: IGMP handling cleanup

2010-11-18T17:33:19Z

Instead of iterating in_dev->mc_list from bonding driver, its better to call a helper function provided by igmp.c Details of implementation (locking) are private to igmp code. ip_mc_rejoin_group(struct ip_mc_list *im) becomes ip_mc_rejoin_groups(struct in_device *in_dev); Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
