Well I clearly goofed when I added the initial network namespace support
for /proc/net. Currently things work but there are odd details visible to
user space, even when we have a single network namespace.
Since we do not cache proc_dir_entry dentries at the moment we can just
modify ->lookup to return a different directory inode depending on the
network namespace of the process looking at /proc/net, replacing the
current technique of using a magic and fragile follow_link method.
To accomplish that this patch:
- introduces a shadow_proc method to allow different dentries to
be returned from proc_lookup.
- Removes the old /proc/net follow_link magic
- Fixes a weakness in our not caching of proc generic dentries.
As shadow_proc uses a task struct to decided which dentry to return we can
go back later and fix the proc generic caching without modifying any code
that uses the shadow_proc method.

Fix forgotten module release in xt_CONNMARK and xt_CONNSECMARK
When xt_CONNMARK is used outside the mangle table and the user specified
"--restore-mark", the connmark_tg_check() function will (correctly)
error out, but (incorrectly) forgets to release the L3 conntrack module.
Same for xt_CONNSECMARK.
Fix is to move the call to acquire the L3 module after the basic
constraint checks.

As far as I see from the err variable initialization
the dn_nl_deladdr() routine was designed to report errors
like "EADDRNOTAVAIL" and probaby "ENODEV".
But the code sets this err to 0 after the first nlmsg_parse
and goes on, returning this 0 in any case.

Avaid provided test application, so bug got fixed.
IPv6 addrconf removes ipv6 inner device from netdev each time cmu
changes and new value is less than IPV6_MIN_MTU (1280 bytes).
When mtu is changed and new value is greater than IPV6_MIN_MTU,
it does not add ipv6 addresses and inner device bac.
This patch fixes that.
Tested with Avaid's application, which works ok now.

I'm not sure if this is best choice, someone might have better
solutions. But this patch fixed the connection problem when switching
from a WPA enabled AP (using wpa_supplicant) to an open AP (using
iwconfig). The root cause is when we connect to a WPA enabled AP,
wpa_supplicant sets the ifsta->extra_ie thru SIOCSIWGENIE. But if we
stop wpa_supplicant and connect to an open AP with iwconfig, there is
no way to clear the extra_ie so that mac80211 keeps connecting with that.
Someone could argue wpa_supplicant should clear the extra_ie during
its shutdown. But mac80211 should also handle the unexpected shutdown
case (ie. killall -9 wpa_supplicant).

Our treatment of Heartbeats is special in that the inital HB chunk

Lachlan Andrew observed that my TCP-Illinois implementation uses the
beta value incorrectly:
The parameter beta in the paper specifies the amount to decrease
*by*: that is, on loss,
W <- W - beta*W
but in tcp_illinois_ssthresh() uses beta as the amount
to decrease *to*: W <- beta*W
This bug makes the Linux TCP-Illinois get less-aggressive on uncongested network,
hurting performance. Note: since the base beta value is .5, it has no
impact on a congested network.

Andrew Morton reported that __xfrm_lookup generates this warning:
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c: In function '__xfrm_lookup':
net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1449: warning: 'dst' may be used uninitialized in this function
This is because if policy->action is of an unexpected value then dst will
not be initialised. Of course, in practice this should never happen since
the input layer xfrm_user/af_key will filter out all illegal values. But
the compiler doesn't know that of course.
So this patch fixes this by taking the conservative approach and treat all
unknown actions the same as a blocking action.
Thanks to Andrew for finding this and providing an initial fix.

The following race is possible when one cpu unregisters the handler
while other one is trying to receive a message and call this one:
CPU1: CPU2:
inet_diag_rcv() inet_diag_unregister()
mutex_lock(&inet_diag_mutex);
netlink_rcv_skb(skb, &inet_diag_rcv_msg);
if (inet_diag_table[nlh->nlmsg_type] ==
NULL) /* false handler is still registered */
...
netlink_dump_start(idiagnl, skb, nlh,
inet_diag_dump, NULL);
cb = kzalloc(sizeof(*cb), GFP_KERNEL);
/* sleep here freeing memory
* or preempt
* or sleep later on nlk->cb_mutex
*/
spin_lock(&inet_diag_register_lock);
inet_diag_table[type] = NULL;
... spin_unlock(&inet_diag_register_lock);
synchronize_rcu();
/* CPU1 is sleeping - RCU quiescent
* state is passed
*/
return;
/* inet_diag_dump is finally called: */
inet_diag_dump()
handler = inet_diag_table[cb->nlh->nlmsg_type];
BUG_ON(handler == NULL);
/* OOPS! While we slept the unregister has set
* handler to NULL :(
*/
Grep showed, that the register/unregister functions are called
from init/fini module callbacks for tcp_/dccp_diag, so it's OK
to use the inet_diag_mutex to synchronize manipulations with the
inet_diag_table and the access to it.
Besides, as Herbert pointed out, asynchronous dumps should hold
this mutex as well, and thus, we provide the mutex as cb_mutex one.

I am not absolutely sure whether this actually is a bug (as in: I've got
no clue what the standards say or what other implementations do), but at
least I was pretty surprised when I noticed that a recv() on a
non-blocking unix domain socket of type SOCK_SEQPACKET (which is connection
oriented, after all) where the remote end has closed the connection
returned -1 (EAGAIN) rather than 0 to indicate end of file.
This is a test case:
| #include <sys/types.h>
| #include <unistd.h>
| #include <sys/socket.h>
| #include <sys/un.h>
| #include <fcntl.h>
| #include <string.h>
| #include <stdlib.h>
|
| int main(){
| int sock;
| struct sockaddr_un addr;
| char buf[4096];
| int pfds[2];
|
| pipe(pfds);
| sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0);
| addr.sun_family=AF_UNIX;
| strcpy(addr.sun_path,"/tmp/foobar_testsock");
| bind(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr));
| listen(sock,1);
| if(fork()){
| close(sock);
| sock=socket(PF_UNIX,SOCK_SEQPACKET,0);
| connect(sock,(struct sockaddr *)&addr,sizeof(addr));
| fcntl(sock,F_SETFL,fcntl(sock,F_GETFL)|O_NONBLOCK);
| close(pfds[1]);
| read(pfds[0],buf,sizeof(buf));
| recv(sock,buf,sizeof(buf),0); // <-- this one
| }else accept(sock,NULL,NULL);
| exit(0);
| }
If you try it, make sure /tmp/foobar_testsock doesn't exist.
The marked recv() returns -1 (EAGAIN) on 2.6.23.9. Below you find a
patch that fixes that.
