2007-05-23[NET_SCHED]: prio qdisc boundary conditionJamal Hadi Salim

2007-04-13[NET_SCHED]: cls_tcindex: fix compatibility breakagePatrick McHardy
Userspace uses an integer for TCA_TCINDEX_SHIFT, the kernel was changed to expect and use a u16 value in 2.6.11, which broke compatibility on big endian machines. Change back to use int.

2007-04-03[IFB]: Fix crash on input device removalPatrick McHardy
The input_device pointer is not refcounted, which means the device may disappear while packets are queued, causing a crash when ifb passes packets with a stale skb->dev pointer to netif_rx(). Fix by storing the interface index instead and do a lookup where neccessary. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>
2007-03-28[NET_SCHED]: cls_basic: fix NULL pointer dereferencePatrick McHardy

2007-03-28[NET_SCHED]: Fix endless loops caused by inaccurate qlen countersPatrick McHardy
There are multiple problems related to qlen adjustment that can lead to an upper qdisc getting out of sync with the real number of packets queued, leading to endless dequeueing attempts by the upper layer code. All qdiscs must maintain an accurate q.qlen counter. There are basically two groups of operations affecting the qlen: operations that propagate down the tree (enqueue, dequeue, requeue, drop, reset) beginning at the root qdisc and operations only affecting a subtree or single qdisc (change, graft, delete class). Since qlen changes during operations from the second group don't propagate to ancestor qdiscs, their qlen values become desynchronized. This patch adds a function to propagate qlen changes up the qdisc tree, optionally calling a callback function to perform qdisc-internal maintenance when the child qdisc is deactivated, and converts all qdiscs to use this where necessary.

2007-01-04NET_SCHED: Fix fallout from dev->qdisc RCU changePatrick McHardy
The move of qdisc destruction to a rcu callback broke locking in the entire qdisc layer by invalidating previously valid assumptions about the context in which changes to the qdisc tree occur. The two assumptions were: - since changes only happen in process context, read_lock doesn't need bottem half protection. Now invalid since destruction of inner qdiscs, classifiers, actions and estimators happens in the RCU callback unless they're manually deleted, resulting in dead-locks when read_lock in process context is interrupted by write_lock_bh in bottem half context. - since changes only happen under the RTNL, no additional locking is necessary for data not used during packet processing (f.e. u32_list). Again, since destruction now happens in the RCU callback, this assumption is not valid anymore, causing races while using this data, which can result in corruption or use-after-free. Instead of "fixing" this by disabling bottem halfs everywhere and adding new locks/refcounting, this patch makes these assumptions valid again by moving destruction back to process context. Since only the dev->qdisc pointer is protected by RCU, but ->enqueue and the qdisc tree are still protected by dev->qdisc_lock, destruction of the tree can be performed immediately and only the final free needs to happen in the rcu callback to make sure dev_queue_xmit doesn't access already freed memory.

2006-12-04[NET_SCHED]: policer: restore compatibility with old iproute binariesPatrick McHardy
The tc actions increased the size of struct tc_police, which broke compatibility with old iproute binaries since both the act_police and the old NET_CLS_POLICE code check for an exact size match. Since the new members are not even used, the simple fix is to also accept the size of the old structure. Dumping is not affected since old userspace will receive a bigger structure, which is handled fine.

2006-11-07PKT_SCHED: Fix illegal memory dereferences when dumping actionsThomas Graf
The TCA_ACT_KIND attribute is used without checking its availability when dumping actions therefore leading to a value of 0x4 being dereferenced. The use of strcmp() in tc_lookup_action_n() isn't safe when fed with string from an attribute without enforcing proper NUL termination.

2006-01-17[PKT_SCHED] sch_prio: fix qdisc bands initAmnon Aaronsohn
Currently when PRIO is configured to use N bands, it lets the packets be directed to any of the bands 0..N-1. However, PRIO attaches a fifo qdisc only to the bands that appear in the priomap; the rest of the N bands remain with a noop qdisc attached.

This monster-patch tries to do the best job for unifying the data structures and backend interfaces for the three evil clones ip_tables, ip6_tables and arp_tables. In an ideal world we would never have allowed this kind of copy+paste programming... but well, our world isn't (yet?) ideal. o introduce a new x_tables module o {ip,arp,ip6}_tables depend on this x_tables module o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only wrappers around x_tables provided functions o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/, include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code, gradually getting rid of all the layer 3 specific assumptions.

2005-11-20[PKT_SCHED]: sch_netem: correctly order packets to be sent simultaneouslyAndrea Bittau
If two packets were queued to be sent at the same time in the future, their order would be reversed. This would occur because the queue is traversed back to front, and a position is found by checking whether the new packet needs to be sent before the packet being examined. If the new packet is to be sent at the same time of a previous packet, it would end up before the old packet in the queue. This patch places packets in the correct order when they are queued to be sent at a same time in the future. Signed-off-by: Andrea Bittau <a.bittau@cs.ucl.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-11-05[NETEM]: Support time based reorderingStephen Hemminger
Change netem to support packets getting reordered because of variations in delay. Introduce a special case version of FIFO that queues packets in order based on the netem delay. Since netem is classful, those users that don't want jitter based reordering can just insert a pfifo instead of the default. This required changes to generic skbuff code to allow finer grain manipulation of sk_buff_head. Insertion into the middle and reverse walk.

2005-11-05[PKT_SCHED]: (G)RED: Introduce hard droppingThomas Graf
Introduces a new flag TC_RED_HARDDROP which specifies that if ECN marking is enabled packets should still be dropped once the average queue length exceeds the maximum threshold. This _may_ help to avoid global synchronisation during small bursts of peers advertising but not caring about ECN. Use this option very carefully, it does more harm than good if (qth_max - qth_min) does not cover at least two average burst cycles. The difference to the current behaviour, in which we'd run into the hard queue limit, is that due to the low pass filter of RED short bursts are less likely to cause a global synchronisation.
