[DCCP]: Ignore feature negotiation on Data packets

2008-01-28T22:57:54Z

This implements [RFC 4340, p. 32]: "any feature negotiation options received on DCCP-Data packets MUST be ignored". Also added a FIXME for further processing, since the code currently (wrongly) classifies empty Confirm options as invalid - this needs to be resolved in a separate patch.

[DCCP]: Support inserting options during the 3-way handshake

2008-01-28T22:57:52Z

This provides a separate routine to insert options during the initial handshake. The main purpose is to conduct feature negotiation, for the moment the only user is the timestamp echo needed for the (CCID3) handshake RTT sample. Padding of options has been put into a small separate routine, to be shared among the two functions. This could also be used as a generic routine to finish inserting options. Also removed an `XXX' comment since its content was obvious. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker Signed-off-by: Ian McDonald Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[DCCP]: Handle timestamps on Request/Response exchange separately

2008-01-28T22:57:51Z

In DCCP, timestamps can occur on packets anytime, CCID3 uses a timestamp(/echo) on the Request/Response exchange. This patch addresses the following situation: * timestamps are recorded on the listening socket; * Responses are sent from dccp_request_sockets; * suppose two connections reach the listening socket with very small time in between: * the first timestamp value gets overwritten by the second connection request. This is not really good, so this patch separates timestamps into * those which are received by the server during the initial handshake (on dccp_request_sock); * those which are received by the client or the client after connection establishment. As before, a timestamp of 0 is regarded as indicating that no (meaningful) timestamp has been received (in addition, a warning message is printed if hosts send 0-valued timestamps). The timestamp-echoing now works as follows: * when a timestamp is present on the initial Request, it is placed into dreq, due to the call to dccp_parse_options in dccp_v{4,6}_conn_request; * when a timestamp is present on the Ack leading from RESPOND => OPEN, it is copied over from the request_sock into the child cocket in dccp_create_openreq_child; * timestamps received on an (established) dccp_sock are treated as before. Since Elapsed Time is measured in hundredths of milliseconds (13.2), the new dccp_timestamp() function is used, as it is expected that the time between receiving the timestamp and sending the timestamp echo will be very small against the wrap-around time. As a byproduct, this allows smaller timestamping-time fields. Furthermore, inserting the Timestamp Echo option has been taken out of the block starting with '!dccp_packet_without_ack()', since Timestamp Echo can be carried on any packet (5.8 and 13.3).

[DCCP]: Allow to parse options on Request Sockets

2008-01-28T22:57:50Z

The option parsing code currently only parses on full sk's. This causes a problem for options sent during the initial handshake (in particular timestamps and feature-negotiation options). Therefore, this patch extends the option parsing code with an additional argument for request_socks: if it is non-NULL, options are parsed on the request socket, otherwise the normal path (parsing on the sk) is used. Subsequent patches, which implement feature negotiation during connection setup, make use of this facility.

[DCCP]: Ignore Ack Vectors / Elapsed Time on DCCP-Request also

2008-01-28T22:54:47Z

Small update with regard to RFC 4340 (references added as documentation): on Requests, Ack Vectors / Elapsed Time should be ignored. Length handling of Elapsed Time also simplified.

[DCCP]: Unaligned pointer access

2007-10-24T12:46:58Z

This fixes `unaligned (read) access' errors of the type Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f970c] dccp_parse_options+0x4f4/0x7e0 [dccp] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[1011f2e4] ccid3_hc_tx_parse_options+0x1ac/0x380 [dccp_ccid3] Kernel unaligned access at TPC[100f9898] dccp_parse_options+0x680/0x880 [dccp] by using the get_unaligned macro for parsing options.

[DCCP]: Wrong format in printk

[DCCP]: Tidy-up -- minisock initialisation

2007-10-10T23:54:36Z

This * removes a declaration of a non-existent function __dccp_minisock_init; * shifts the initialisation function dccp_minisock_init() from options.c to minisocks.c, where it is more naturally expected to be.

[DCCP]: Provide 10s of microsecond timesource

2007-10-10T23:52:35Z

This provides a timesource, conveniently used for DCCP timestamps, which returns the elapsed time in 10s of microseconds since initialisation. This makes for a wrap-around time of about 11.9 hours, which should be sufficient for most applications. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S.
