ipv6: add IPv6 to neighbour table overflow warning

2010-09-27T22:02:18Z

IPv4 and IPv6 have separate neighbour tables, so the warning messages should be distinguishable. [ Add a suitable message prefix on the ipv4 side as well -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Ulrich Weber Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: blackhole route should always be recalculated

2010-09-08T21:35:43Z

Blackhole routes are used when xfrm_lookup() returns -EREMOTE (error triggered by IKE for example), hence this kind of route is always temporary and so we should check if a better route exists for next packets. Bug has been introduced by commit d11a4dc18bf41719c9f0d7ed494d295dd2973b92. Signed-off-by: Jianzhao Wang Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: RTA_MARK addition

2010-07-22T20:46:21Z

Add a new rt attribute, RTA_MARK, and use it in rt_fill_info()/inet_rtm_getroute() to support following commands : ip route get 192.168.20.110 mark NUMBER ip route get 192.168.20.108 from 192.168.20.110 iif eth1 mark NUMBER ip route list cache [192.168.20.110] mark NUMBER Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structures

2010-06-16T18:55:39Z

Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches. Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes. This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields, that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer. rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing. Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while. We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

net-next: remove useless union keyword

2010-06-11T06:31:35Z

remove useless union keyword in rtable, rt6_info and dn_route. Since there is only one member in a union, the union keyword isn't useful. Signed-off-by: Changli Gao Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: avoid two atomic ops in ip_rt_redirect()

ipv4: RCU conversion of ip_route_input_slow/ip_route_input_mc

Avoid two atomic ops on struct in_device refcount per incoming packet, if slow path taken, (or route cache disabled) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: add LINUX_MIB_IPRPFILTER snmp counter

2010-06-03T10:18:19Z

Christoph Lameter mentioned that packets could be dropped in input path because of rp_filter settings, without any SNMP counter being incremented. System administrator can have a hard time to track the problem. This patch introduces a new counter, LINUX_MIB_IPRPFILTER, incremented each time we drop a packet because Reverse Path Filter triggers. (We receive an IPv4 datagram on a given interface, and find the route to send an answer would use another interface) netstat -s | grep IPReversePathFilter IPReversePathFilter: 21714 Reported-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
