Inspection of upper layer protocol is considered harmful, especially if it is about ARP or other stateful upper layer protocol; driver cannot (and should not) have full state of them. IPv4 over Firewire module used to inspect ARP (both in sending path and in receiving path), and record peer's GUID, max packet size, max speed and fifo address. This patch removes such inspection by extending our "hardware address" definition to include other information as well: max packet size, max speed and fifo. By doing this, The neighbour module in networking subsystem can cache them. Note: As we have started ignoring sspd and max_rec in ARP/NDP, those information will not be used in the driver when sending. When a packet is being sent, the IP layer fills our pseudo header with the extended "hardware address", including GUID and fifo. The driver can look-up node-id (the real but rather volatile low-level address) by GUID, and then the module can send the packet to the wire using parameters provided in the extendedn hardware address. This approach is realistic because IP over IEEE1394 (RFC2734) and IPv6 over IEEE1394 (RFC3146) share same "hardware address" format in their address resolution protocols. Here, extended "hardware address" is defined as follows: union fwnet_hwaddr { u8 u[16]; struct { __be64 uniq_id; /* EUI-64 */ u8 max_rec; /* max packet size */ u8 sspd; /* max speed */ __be16 fifo_hi; /* hi 16bits of FIFO addr */ __be32 fifo_lo; /* lo 32bits of FIFO addr */ } __packed uc; }; Note that Hardware address is declared as union, so that we can map full IP address into this, when implementing MCAP (Multicast Cannel Allocation Protocol) for IPv6, but IP and ARP subsystem do not need to know this format in detail. One difference between original ARP (RFC826) and 1394 ARP (RFC2734) is that 1394 ARP Request/Reply do not contain the target hardware address field (aka ar$tha). This difference is handled in the ARP subsystem. CC: Stephan Gatzka <stephan.gatzka@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de> says: | As far as I can tell, it would be best to ignore max_rec and sspd from ARP | and NDP but keep using the respective information from firewire-core | instead (handed over by fwnet_probe()). | | Why? As I noted earlier, RFC 2734:1999 and RFC 3146:2001 were apparently | written with a too simplistic notion of IEEE 1394 bus topology, resulting | in max_rec and sspd in ARP-1394 and NDP-1394 to be useless, IMO. | | Consider a bus like this: | | A ---- B ==== C | | A, B, C are all IP-over-1394 capable nodes. ---- is an S400 cable hop, | and ==== is an S800 cable hop. | | In case of unicasts or multicasts in which node A is involved as | transmitter or receiver, as well as in case of broadcasts, the speeds | S100, S200, S400 work and speed S400 is optimal. | | In case of anything else, IOW in case of unicasts or multicasts in which | only nodes B and C are involved, the speeds S100, S200, S400, S800 work | and speed S800 is optimal. | | Clearly, node A should indicate sspd = S400 in its ARP or NDP packets. | But which sspd should nodes B and C set there? Maybe they set S400, which | would work but would waste half of the available bandwidth in the second | case. Or maybe they set S800, which is OK in the second case but would | prohibit any communication with node A if blindly taken for correct. | | On the other hand, firewire-core *always* gives us the correct and optimum | peer-to-peer speed and asynchronous packet payload, no matter how simple | or complex the bus topology is and no matter in which temporal order nodes | join the bus and are discovered.

Allocate FIFO address before registering net_device. This is preparation to change the pseudo hardware address format for firewire devices to include the offset of the FIFO for receipt of unicast datagrams, instead of mangling ARP/NDP messages in the driver layer.

Following patch refactors GRE code into ip tunneling code and GRE specific code. Common tunneling code is moved to ip_tunnel module. ip_tunnel module is written as generic library which can be used by different tunneling implementations. ip_tunnel module contains following components: - packet xmit and rcv generic code. xmit flow looks like (gre_xmit/ipip_xmit)->ip_tunnel_xmit->ip_local_out. - hash table of all devices. - lookup for tunnel devices. - control plane operations like device create, destroy, ioctl, netlink operations code. - registration for tunneling modules, like gre, ipip etc. - define single pcpu_tstats dev->tstats. - struct tnl_ptk_info added to pass parsed tunnel packet parameters. ipip.h header is renamed to ip_tunnel.h Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If we have defined a sparse port allocation which is non-contiguous and contains gaps, the code freeing port_names will just stop when it encouters a first NULL port_names, which is not right, we should iterate over all possible number of ports (DSA_MAX_PORTS) until we are done.

This patch adds a dev_addr_genid for IPv6. The goal is to use it, combined with dev_base_seq to check if a change occurs during a netlink dump. If a change is detected, the flag NLM_F_DUMP_INTR is set in the first message after the dump was interrupted. Note that only dump of unicast addresses is checked (multicast and anycast are not checked).

This patch is meant to be a follow-up for a patch originally submitted under the title "ioat: Do not enable DCA if tag map is invalid". It was brought to my attention that the preferred approach for BIOS workarounds is to set the taint flag for TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND for systems that require BIOS workarounds. This change makes it so that the DCA workarounds for broken BIOSes will now use WARN_TAINT_ONCE(1, TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, ...) instead of just printing a message via dev_err.
