When sysfs support is compiled out the kernel still keeps and maintains the kobject tree. So it is not safe to skip our kobject reference counting or to avoid becoming members of the kobject tree. It is safe to not add the networking specific sysfs attributes. This patch removes the sysfs special cases from net/core/dev.c renames functions from netdev_sysfs_xxxx to netdev_kobject_xxxx and always compiles in net-sysfs.c net-sysfs.c is modified with a CONFIG_SYSFS guard around the parts that are actually sysfs specific.

Since DCCP requires to close both ends of a connection simultaneously, permission to write in state DCCP_CLOSING is removed in dccp_sendmsg(): * if the sending end closed, it would encounter a write error anyhow; * if the other end has closed the connection, it accepts no more data.

This factors code common to dccp_v{4,6}_ctl_send_reset into a separate function, and adds support for filling in the Data 1 ... Data 3 fields from RFC 4340, 5.6. It is useful to have this separate, since the following Reset codes will always be generated from the control socket rather than via dccp_send_reset: * Code 3, "No Connection", cf. 8.3.1; * Code 4, "Packet Error" (identification for Data 1 added); * Code 5, "Option Error" (identification for Data 1..3 added, will be used later); * Code 6, "Mandatory Error" (same as Option Error); * Code 7, "Connection Refused" (what on Earth is the difference to "No Connection"?); * Code 8, "Bad Service Code"; * Code 9, "Too Busy"; * Code 10, "Bad Init Cookie" (not used). Code 0 is not recommended by the RFC, the following codes would be used in dccp_send_reset() instead, since they all relate to an established DCCP connection: * Code 1, "Closed"; * Code 2, "Aborted"; * Code 11, "Aggression Penalty" (12.3).

This implements a SHOULD from RFC 4340, 7.5.4: "To protect against denial-of-service attacks, DCCP implementations SHOULD impose a rate limit on DCCP-Syncs sent in response to sequence-invalid packets, such as not more than eight DCCP-Syncs per second." The rate-limit is maintained on a per-socket basis. This is a more stringent policy than enforcing the rate-limit on a per-source-address basis and protects against attacks with forged source addresses. Moreover, the mechanism is deliberately kept simple. In contrast to xrlim_allow(), bursts of Sync packets in reply to sequence-invalid packets are not supported. This foils such attacks where the receipt of a Sync triggers further sequence-invalid packets. (I have tested this mechanism against xrlim_allow algorithm for Syncs, permitting bursts just increases the problems.) In order to keep flexibility, the timeout parameter can be set via sysctl; and the whole mechanism can even be disabled (which is however not recommended). The algorithm in this patch has been improved with regard to wrapping issues thanks to a suggestion by Arnaldo. Commiter note: Rate limited the step 6 DCCP_WARN too, as it says we're sending a sync.

In this patch, duplicated code is removed for the case when a Reset packet is sent from a connected socket. This code duplication is between dccp_make_reset and dccp_transmit_skb, which already contained an (up to now entirely unused) switch statement to fill in the reset code from the DCCP_SKB_CB. The only thing that has been removed is the call to dst_clone(dst), since the queue_xmit functions use sk_dst_cache anyway. I wasn't sure which purpose inet_sk_rebuild_header served, so I left it in.

This adds fields to support the informational Data 1..3 fields of the DCCP-Reset packets (RFC 4340, 5.6), and makes minor cosmetic changes to documentation. Code which fills in these fields follows in subsequent patches, it is primarily used for reporting option-processing and feature-negotiation errors.

This adds a FIXME to signal that the function dccp_send_delayed_ack is nowhere used in the entire DCCP/CCID code. Using a delayed Ack timer is suggested in 11.3 of RFC 4340, but it has also rather subtle implications for the Ack-Ratio-accounting. CCID2 does not use this (maybe it should). I think leaving the function in is good, in case someone wants to implement this.

This moves several instances of testing against NULL into the function which is used to de-reference the CCID-private data. Committer note: Made the BUG_ON depend on having CONFIG_IP_DCCP_CCID3_DEBUG, as it is too much to have this on production code. Also made sure that the macro is used only after checking if sk_state is not LISTEN, to make it equivalent to what we had before.

This fixes the code to correspond to RFC 4340, 7.5.4, which states the exception that a Sync received in state REQUEST generates a Reset (not a SyncAck). To achieve this, only a small change is required. Since dccp_rcv_request_sent_state_process() already uses the correct Reset Code number 4 ("Packet Error"), we only need to shift the if-statement a few lines further down. (To test this case: replace DCCP_PKT_RESPONSE with DCCP_PKT_SYNC in dccp_make_response.)

In case of ACK reordering, the SACK block might be valid in it's time but is already obsoleted since we've received another kind of confirmation about arrival of the segments through snd_una advancement of an earlier packet. I didn't bother to build distinguishing of valid and invalid SACK blocks but simply made reordered SACK blocks that are too old always not counted regardless of their "real" validity which could be determined by using the ack field of the reordered packet (won't be significant IMHO). DSACKs can very well be considered useful even in this situation, so won't do any of this for them. Signed-off-by: Ilpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: David S.

I previously added checking to position that is rather poor as state has already been adjusted quite a bit. Re-placing it above all state changes should be more robust though the return should never ever get executed regardless of its place :-).

The parameter `seq' of dccp_send_sync() is in fact an acknowledgement number and not a sequence number - thus renamed by this patch into `ackno'. Secondly, a `critical' warning is added when a Sync/SyncAck could not be sent. Sanity: I have checked all other functions that are called in dccp_transmit_skb, there are no clashes with the use of dccpd_ack_seq; no other function is using this slot at the same time.

This updates sequence number checking with regard to RFC 4340, 7.5.4. Missing in the code was an exception for sequence-invalid Reset packets, which get a Sync acknowledging GSR, instead of (as usual) P.seqno. This can lead to an oscillating ping-pong flood of Reset packets. In fact, it has been observed on the wire as follows: 1. client establishes connection to server; 2. before server can write to client, client crashes without notifying the server (NB: now no longer possible due to ABORT function); 3. server sends DCCP-Data packet (has no ackno); 4. client generates Reset "No Connection", seqno=0, increments seqno; 5. server replies with Sync, using ackno = P.seqno; 6. client generates Reset "No Connection" with seqno = ackno + 1; 7. goto (5). The difference is that now in (5) the server uses GSR. This causes the Reset sent by the client in (6) to become sequence-valid, so that in (7) the vicious circle is broken; the Reset is then enqueued and causes the socket to enter TIMEWAIT state.

This patch is in part required by the next patch; it * replaces 6 instances of `DCCP_SKB_CB(skb)->dccpd_seq' with `seqno'; * replaces 7 instances of `DCCP_SKB_CB(skb)->dccpd_ack_seq' with `ackno'; * replaces 1 use of dccp_inc_seqno() by unfolding `ADD48' macro in place.

The third parameter of dccp_sample_rtt now becomes useless and is removed. Also combined the subtraction of the timestamp echo and the elapsed time. This is safe, since (a) presence of timestamp echo is tested first and (b) elapsed time is either present and non-zero or it is not set and equals 0 due to the memset in dccp_parse_options. To avoid measuring option-processing time, the timestamp for measuring the initial Request/Response RTT sample is taken directly when the function is called (the Linux implementation always adds a timestamp on the Request, so there is no loss in doing this).

This provides a timesource, conveniently used for DCCP timestamps, which returns the elapsed time in 10s of microseconds since initialisation.

This patch reduces the number of timestamps taken in the receive path for each packet. The ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() routine is called in * the receive path for each CCID3-controlled packet * for the nofeedback timer (if no feedback arrives during 4 RTT) Currently, when there is no loss, each packet gets timestamped twice. The patch resolves this by recycling the first timestamp taken on packet reception for RTT sampling. When the no_feedback_timer() is called, then the timestamp argument is simply set to NULL - so that ccid3_hc_tx_update_x() takes care of the logic.

This change cleans up the radio-related messages in several ways. (1) The state of the rfkill switch is assumed to be on, rather than tested. Now, any user without such a switch will not see any messages. For devices with such a switch, a message will be logged only if the initial state is off, or if the switch is toggled. (2) The routine for testing the switch state is no longer inline. (3) The LED handling routine is simplified. (4) The "Radio turned off" message that has confused some users has been changed to "Radio initialized". This patch is patterned after a similar change to b43 by Michael Buesch.
