macvlan: Forward unicast frames in bridge mode to lowerdev

2011-05-23T01:01:18Z

Unicast frames between macvlan interfaces in bridge mode are not otherwise sent to network taps on the lowerdev (as all other macvlan frames are), so forward the frames to the receive queue of the lowerdev first. Signed-off-by: David Ward Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

macvlan: fix panic if lowerdev in a bond

2011-05-20T18:59:23Z

commit a35e2c1b6d905 (macvlan: use rx_handler_data pointer to store macvlan_port pointer V2) added a bug in macvlan_port_create() Steps to reproduce the bug: # ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1 # ip link add link eth0 up name eth0#1 type macvlan ->error EBUSY # ip link add link eth0 up name eth0#1 type macvlan ->panic Fix: Dont set IFF_MACVLAN_PORT in error case.

macvlan: remove one synchronize_rcu() call

2011-05-20T04:33:18Z

When one macvlan device is dismantled, we can avoid one synchronize_rcu() call done after deletion from hash list, since caller will perform a synchronize_net() call after its ndo_stop() call. Add a new netdev->dismantle field to signal this dismantle intent. Reduces RTNL hold time. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet CC: Patrick McHardy CC: Ben Greear Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: use batched device unregister in veth and macvlan

2011-05-09T18:41:40Z

veth devices dont use the batched device unregisters yet. Since veth are a pair of devices, it makes sense to use a batch of two unregisters, this roughly divides dismantle time by two. Fix this by changing dellink() callers to always provide a non NULL head. (Idea from Michał Mirosław) This patch also handles macvlan case : We now dismantle all macvlans on top of a lower dev at once.

macvlan,rcu: convert call_rcu(macvlan_port_rcu_free) to kfree_rcu()

2011-05-08T05:51:01Z

The rcu callback macvlan_port_rcu_free() just calls a kfree(), so we use kfree_rcu() instead of the call_rcu(macvlan_port_rcu_free). Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan Acked-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett

macvlan: Fix use after free of struct macvlan_port.

2011-03-22T01:22:22Z

When the macvlan driver was extended to call unregisgter_netdevice_queue in 23289a37e2b127dfc4de1313fba15bb4c9f0cd5b, a use after free of struct macvlan_port was introduced. The code in dellink relied on unregister_netdevice actually unregistering the net device so it would be safe to free macvlan_port. Since unregister_netdevice_queue can just queue up the unregister instead of performing the unregiser immediately we free the macvlan_port too soon and then the code in macvlan_stop removes the macaddress for the set of macaddress to listen for and uses memory that has already been freed. To fix this add a reference count to track when it is safe to free the macvlan_port and move the call of macvlan_port_destroy into macvlan_uninit which is guaranteed to be called after the final macvlan_port_close.

net: introduce rx_handler results and logic around that

2011-03-16T19:53:54Z

This patch allows rx_handlers to better signalize what to do next to it's caller. That makes skb->deliver_no_wcard no longer needed. kernel-doc for rx_handler_result is taken from Nicolas' patch. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Reviewed-by: Nicolas de Pesloüan Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

macvlan : fix checksums error when we are in bridge mode

2011-03-14T23:54:44Z

When the lower device has offloading capabilities, the packets checksums are not computed. That leads to have any macvlan port in bridge mode to not work because the packets are dropped due to a bad checksum. If the macvlan is in bridge mode, the packet is forwarded to another macvlan port and reach the network stack where it looks for a checksum but this one was not computed due to the offloading of the lower device. In this case, we have to set the packet with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY when it is forwarded to a bridged port and restore the previous value of ip_summed when the packet goes to the lowerdev.
