include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32Z

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

sctp: Sysctl configuration for IPv4 Address Scoping

2009-09-04T22:21:01Z

This patch introduces a new sysctl option to make IPv4 Address Scoping configurable . In networking environments where DNAT rules in iptables prerouting chains convert destination IP's to link-local/private IP addresses, SCTP connections fail to establish as the INIT chunk is dropped by the kernel due to address scope match failure. For example to support overlapping IP addresses (same IP address with different vlan id) a Layer-5 application listens on link local IP's, and there is a DNAT rule that maps the destination IP to a link local IP. Such applications never get the SCTP INIT if the address-scoping draft is strictly followed. This sysctl configuration allows SCTP to function in such unconventional networking environments. Sysctl options: 0 - Disable IPv4 address scoping draft altogether 1 - Enable IPv4 address scoping (default, current behavior) 2 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 private addresses in init/init-ack 3 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 link local address in init/init-ack Signed-off-by: Bhaskar Dutta Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

sctp: try harder to figure out address family when checking wildcards

2008-10-01T15:33:06Z

sctp_is_any() function that is used to check for wildcard addresses only looks at the address itself to determine the address family. This function is used in the API to check the address passed in from the user. If the user simply zerroes out the sockaddr_storage and pass that in, we'll end up failing. So, let's try harder to determine the address family by also checking the socket if it's possible. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

2008-04-13T01:54:24Z

Replacing (almost) all invocations of list_for_each() with list_for_each_entry() tightens up the code and allows for the deletion of numerous list iterator variables that are no longer necessary. Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SCTP]: Fix local_addr deletions during list traversals.

2008-03-12T01:05:02Z

Since the lists are circular, we need to explicitely tag the address to be deleted since we might end up freeing the list head instead. This fixes some interesting SCTP crashes. Signed-off-by: Chidambar 'ilLogict' Zinnoury Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SCTP]: Stop claiming that this is a "reference implementation"

2008-02-05T15:59:07Z

I was notified by Randy Stewart that lksctp claims to be "the reference implementation". First of all, "the refrence implementation" was the original implementation of SCTP in usersapce written ty Randy and a few others. Second, after looking at the definiton of 'reference implementation', we don't really meet the requirements. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

[SCTP]: Implement ADD-IP special case processing for ABORT chunk

2008-01-28T22:59:24Z

ADD-IP spec has a special case for processing ABORTs: F4) ... One special consideration is that ABORT Chunks arriving destined to the IP address being deleted MUST be ignored (see Section 5.3.1 for further details). Check if the address we received on is in the DEL state, and if so, ignore the ABORT. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
