Augments TIPC's discovery object to send its initial neighbor discovery request message as soon as the associated bearer is created, rather than waiting for its first periodic timeout to occur, thereby speeding up the discovery process. Also adds a check to suppress the initial request or subsequent requests if the bearer is blocked at the time the request is scheduled for transmission.

Modifies bearer creation and deletion code to improve handling of scenarios when a neighbor discovery object cannot be created. The creation routine now aborts the creation of a bearer if its discovery object cannot be created, and deletes the newly created bearer, rather than failing quietly and leaving an unusable bearer hanging around. Since the exit via the goto label really isn't a definitive failure in all cases, relabel it appropriately.

Create a helper routine to enqueue a chain of sk_buffs to a link's transmit queue. It improves readability and the new function is anticipated to be used more than just once in the future as well.

Rework TIPC's message sending routines to take advantage of the total amount of data value passed to it by the kernel socket infrastructure. This change eliminates the need for TIPC to compute the size of outgoing messages itself, as well as the check for an oversize message in tipc_msg_build(). In addition, this change warrants an explanation: - res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, 0); + res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, bytes_to_send); Previously, the final argument to send_packet() was ignored (since the amount of data being sent was recalculated by a lower-level routine) and we could just pass in a dummy value (0). Now that the recalculation is being eliminated, the argument value being passed to send_packet() is significant and we have to supply the actual amount of data we want to send.

Adds checks to TIPC's socket send routines to promptly detect and abort attempts to send more than 66,000 bytes in a single TIPC message or more than 2**31-1 bytes in a single TIPC byte stream request. In addition, this ensures that the number of iovecs in a send request does not exceed the limits of a standard integer variable.

Enhances existing checks on the discovery domain associated with a TIPC bearer. A bearer can no longer be configured to accept links from itself only (which would be pointless), or to nodes outside its own cluster (since multi-cluster support has now been removed from TIPC). Also, the neighbor discovery routine now validates link setup requests against the configured discovery domain for the bearer, rather than simply ensuring the requesting node belongs to the node's own cluster.

Modifies a TIPC send routine that did not discard the outgoing sk_buff if it was not transmitted because of link congestion; this eliminates the potential for buffer leakage in the many callers who did not clean up the unsent buffer. (The two routines that previously did discard the unsent buffer have been updated to eliminate their now-redundant clean up.)

Sets the destination node field of an incoming multicast message to the receiving node's network address before handing off the message to each receiving port. This ensures that, in the event the destination port returns the message to the sender, the sender can identify which node the destination port belonged to.

Set the destination node and destination port fields of an outgoing multicast message header to zero; this is necessary to ensure that the receiving node can route the message properly if it was packed into a bundle due to link congestion. (Previously, there was a chance that the receiving node would send the unbundled message to a random node & port, rather than processing the message itself.)

Ensures that all outgoing data messages have the "name lookup scope" field of their header set correctly; that is, named multicast messages now specify cluster-wide name lookup, while messages not using TIPC naming zero out the lookup field. (Previously, the lookup scope specified for these types of messages was inherited from the last message sent by the sending port.)

Modifies the routine that fragments an existing message buffer to use similar logic to that used when generating fragments from an iovec. The routine now creates a complete chain of fragments and adds them to the link transmit queue as a unit, so that the link sends all fragments or none; this prevents the incomplete transmission of a fragmented message that might otherwise result because of link congestion or memory exhaustion. This change also ensures that the counter recording the number of fragmented messages sent by the link is now incremented only if the message is actually sent.

Eliminates code that sets the link selector field in the header of fragmented messages, since this information is never referenced.

This patch enables ethtool to set the loopback mode on a given interface. By configuring the interface in loopback mode in conjunction with a policy route / rule, a userland application can stress the egress / ingress path exposing the flows of the change in progress and potentially help developer(s) understand the impact of those changes without even sending a packet out on the network. Following set of commands illustrates one such example - a) ip -4 addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth1 b) ip -4 rule add from all iif eth1 lookup 250 c) ip -4 route add local 0/0 dev lo proto kernel scope host table 250 d) arp -Ds 192.168.1.100 eth1 e) arp -Ds 192.168.1.200 eth1 f) sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1 g) sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_local=1 # Assuming that the machine has 8 cores h) taskset 000f netserver -L 192.168.1.200 i) taskset 00f0 netperf -t TCP_CRR -L 192.168.1.100 -H 192.168.1.200 -l 30 Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Acked-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This allows us to acquire the exact route keying information from the protocol, however that might be managed. It handles all of the possibilities, from the simplest case of storing the key in inet->cork.fl to the more complex setup SCTP has where individual transports determine the flow.

This is just like inet_csk_route_req() except that it operates after we've created the new child socket. In this way we can use the new socket's cork flow for proper route key storage.

All invokers of ip_queue_xmit() must make certain that the socket is locked. All of SCTP, TCP, DCCP, and L2TP now make sure this is the case. Therefore we can use the cork flow during output route lookup in ip_queue_xmit() when the socket route check fails. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

l2tp_xmit_skb() must take the socket lock. It makes use of ip_queue_xmit() which expects to execute in a socket atomic context. Since we execute this function in software interrupts, we cannot use the usual lock_sock()/release_sock() sequence, instead we have to use bh_lock_sock() and see if a user has the socket locked, and if so drop the packet.

Both l2tp_ip_connect() and l2tp_ip_sendmsg() must take the socket lock. They both modify socket state non-atomically, and in particular l2tp_ip_sendmsg() increments socket private counters without using atomic operations. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
