2009-11-08net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation.Eric W. Biederman
There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace with a well known name. We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace for the new device exists through the life of the call. To keep that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing logic into rtnl_link_get_net. In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base device source network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

commit 1d2397d742b7a2b39b2f09dd9da3b9d1463f55e9 ("fsl_pq_mdio: Add Suport for etsec2.0 devices") introduced the following warnings: CHECK fsl_pq_mdio.c fsl_pq_mdio.c:287:22: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different base types) fsl_pq_mdio.c:287:22: expected unknown type 11 const *__mptr fsl_pq_mdio.c:287:22: got unsigned long long [unsigned] [assigned] [usertype] addr fsl_pq_mdio.c:287:19: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types) fsl_pq_mdio.c:287:19: expected unsigned long long [unsigned] [usertype] ioremap_miimcfg fsl_pq_mdio.c:287:19: got struct fsl_pq_mdio *<noident> CC fsl_pq_mdio.o fsl_pq_mdio.c: In function 'fsl_pq_mdio_probe': fsl_pq_mdio.c:287: warning: initialization makes pointer from integer without a cast fsl_pq_mdio.c:287: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast These warnings are not easy to fix without ugly __force casts. So, instead of introducing the casts, rework the code to substitute an offset from an already mapped area. This makes the code a lot simpler and less duplicated. Plus, from now on we don't actually map reserved registers on non-etsec2.0 devices, so we have more chances to catch programming errors.

2009-11-06net, compat_ioctl: handle more ioctls correctlyArnd Bergmann
The MII ioctls and SIOCSIFNAME need to go through ifsioc conversion, which they never did so far. Some others are not implemented in the native path, so we can just return -EINVAL directly. Add IFSLAVE ioctls to the EINVAL list and move it to the end to optimize the code path for the common case. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-11-06compat: move sockios handling to net/socket.cArnd Bergmann
This removes the original socket compat_ioctl code from fs/compat_ioctl.c and converts the code from the copy in net/socket.c into a single function. We add a few cycles of runtime to compat_sock_ioctl() with the long switch() statement, but gain some cycles in return by simplifying the call chain to get there. Due to better inlining, save 1.5kb of object size in the process, and enable further savings: before: text data bss dec hex filename 13540 18008 2080 33628 835c obj/fs/compat_ioctl.o 14565 636 40 15241 3b89 obj/net/socket.o after: text data bss dec hex filename 8916 15176 2080 26172 663c obj/fs/compat_ioctl.o 20725 636 40 21401 5399 obj/net/socket.o Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-11-06net: copy socket ioctl code to net/socket.hArnd Bergmann
This makes an identical copy of the socket compat_ioctl code from fs/compat_ioctl.c to net/socket.c, as a preparation for moving the functionality in a way that can be easily reviewed.

2009-11-06net, compat_ioctl: handle socket ioctl abuses in tty driversArnd Bergmann
Slip and a few other drivers use the same ioctl numbers on tty devices that are normally meant for sockets. This causes problems with our compat_ioctl handling that tries to convert the data structures in a different format. Fortunately, these five drivers all use 32 bit compatible data structures in the ioctl numbers, so we can just add a trivial compat_ioctl conversion function to each of them. SIOCSIFENCAP and SIOCGIFENCAP do not need to live in fs/compat_ioctl.c after this any more, and they are not used on any sockets. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-11-06net/tun: handle compat_ioctl directlyArnd Bergmann
The tun driver is the only code in the kernel that operates on a character device with struct ifreq. Change the driver to handle the conversion itself so we can contain the remaining ifreq handling in the socket layer. This also fixes a bug in the handling of invalid ioctl numbers on an unbound tun device. The driver treats this as a TUNSETIFF in native mode, but there is no way for the generic compat_ioctl() function to emulate this behaviour. Possibly the driver was only doing this accidentally anyway, but if any code relies on this misfeature, it now also works in compat mode.

2009-11-06netfilter: nf_nat: fix NAT issue in 2.6.30.4+Jozsef Kadlecsik
Vitezslav Samel discovered that since 2.6.30.4+ active FTP can not work over NAT. The "cause" of the problem was a fix of unacknowledged data detection with NAT (commit a3a9f79e361e864f0e9d75ebe2a0cb43d17c4272). However, actually, that fix uncovered a long standing bug in TCP conntrack: when NAT was enabled, we simply updated the max of the right edge of the segments we have seen (td_end), by the offset NAT produced with changing IP/port in the data. However, we did not update the other parameter (td_maxend) which is affected by the NAT offset. Thus that could drift away from the correct value and thus resulted breaking active FTP. The patch below fixes the issue by *not* updating the conntrack parameters from NAT, but instead taking into account the NAT offsets in conntrack in a consistent way. (Updating from NAT would be more harder and expensive because it'd need to re-calculate parameters we already calculated in conntrack.)
