netconf: advertise mc_forwarding status

2012-12-04T18:08:10Z

This patch advertise the MC_FORWARDING status for IPv4 and IPv6. This field is readonly, only multicast engine in the kernel updates it. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: add ipv6_addr_hash() helper

2012-07-18T18:28:46Z

Introduce ipv6_addr_hash() helper doing a XOR on all bits of an IPv6 address, with an optimized x86_64 version. Use it in flow dissector, as suggested by Andrew McGregor, to reduce hash collision probabilities in fq_codel (and other users of flow dissector) Use it in ip6_tunnel.c and use more bit shuffling, as suggested by David Laight, as existing hash was ignoring most of them. Use it in sunrpc and use more bit shuffling, using hash_32(). Use it in net/ipv6/addrconf.c, using hash_32() as well. As a cleanup, use it in net/ipv4/tcp_metrics.c Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reported-by: Andrew McGregor Cc: Dave Taht Cc: Tom Herbert Cc: David Laight Cc: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: cleanup unsigned to unsigned int

2012-04-15T16:44:40Z

Use of "unsigned int" is preferred to bare "unsigned" in net tree. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Remove never used function inet6_ac_check().

2012-02-01T21:14:17Z

It went from unused, to commented out, and never changing after that. Just get rid of it, if someone wants it they can unearth it from the history. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Check RA for sllao when configuring optimistic ipv6 address (v2)

2012-01-04T20:53:20Z

Recently Dave noticed that a test we did in ipv6_add_addr to see if we next hop route for the interface we're adding an addres to was wrong (see commit 7ffbcecbeed91e5874e9a1cfc4c0cbb07dac3069). for one, it never triggers, and two, it was completely wrong to begin with. This test was meant to cover this section of RFC 4429: 3.3 Modifications to RFC 2462 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration * (modifies section 5.5) A host MAY choose to configure a new address as an Optimistic Address. A host that does not know the SLLAO of its router SHOULD NOT configure a new address as Optimistic. A router SHOULD NOT configure an Optimistic Address. This patch should bring us into proper compliance with the above clause. Since we only add a SLAAC address after we've received a RA which may or may not contain a source link layer address option, we can pass a pointer to that option to addrconf_prefix_rcv (which may be null if the option is not present), and only set the optimistic flag if the option was found in the RA. Change notes: (v2) modified the new parameter to addrconf_prefix_rcv to be a bool rather than a pointer to make its use more clear as per request from davem. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman CC: "David S.

ipv6: updates to privacy addresses per RFC 4941.

2011-08-02T01:05:00Z

Update the code to handle some of the differences between RFC 3041 and RFC 4941, which obsoletes it. Also a couple of janitorial fixes. - Allow router advertisements to increase the lifetime of temporary addresses. This was not allowed by RFC 3041, but is specified by RFC 4941. It is useful when RA lifetimes are lower than TEMP_{VALID,PREFERRED}_LIFETIME: in this case, the previous code would delete or deprecate addresses prematurely. - Change the default of MAX_RETRY to 3 per RFC 4941. - Add a comment to clarify that the preferred and valid lifetimes in inet6_ifaddr are relative to the timestamp. - Shorten lines to 80 characters in a couple of places.

net: Remove KERNEL cpp checks from include/net

2011-04-24T17:54:56Z

These header files are never installed to user consumption, so any __KERNEL__ cpp checks are superfluous. Projects should also not copy these files into their userland utility sources and try to use them there. If they insist on doing so, the onus is on them to sanitize the headers as needed.

inet: constify ip headers and in6_addr

2011-04-22T18:04:14Z

Add const qualifiers to structs iphdr, ipv6hdr and in6_addr pointers where possible, to make code intention more obvious. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
