ipv6: fix _DEVADD() and _DEVUPD() macros

2025-03-25T14:31:24Z

ip6_rcv_core() is using: __IP6_ADD_STATS(net, idev, IPSTATS_MIB_NOECTPKTS + (ipv6_get_dsfield(hdr) & INET_ECN_MASK), max_t(unsigned short, 1, skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_segs)); This is currently evaluating both expressions twice. Fix _DEVADD() and _DEVUPD() macros to evaluate their arguments once.

ipv6: replace ipcm6_init calls with ipcm6_init_sk

2025-02-19T02:27:20Z

This initializes tclass and dontfrag before cmsg parsing, removing the need for explicit checks against -1 in each caller. Leave hlimit set to -1, because its full initialization (in ip6_sk_dst_hoplimit) requires more state (dst, flowi6, ..). This also prepares for calling sockcm_init in a follow-on patch.

net: reformat kdoc return statements

2024-12-09T22:44:59Z

kernel-doc -Wall warns about missing Return: statement for non-void functions. We have a number of kdocs in our headers which are missing the colon, IOW they use * Return some value or * Returns some value Having the colon makes some sense, it should help kdoc parser avoid false positives. So add them. This is mostly done with a sed script, and removing the unnecessary cases (mostly the comments which aren't kdoc).

ipv6: Add ipv6_addr_{cpu_to_be32,be32_to_cpu} helpers

2024-08-16T17:27:48Z

Add helpers to convert an ipv6 addr, expressed as an array of words, from CPU to big-endian byte order, and vice versa. No functional change intended. Compile tested only.

tcp: Save v4 address as v4-mapped-v6 in inet_bind2_bucket.v6_rcv_saddr.

2023-12-22T22:15:34Z

In bhash2, IPv4/IPv6 addresses are saved in two union members, which complicate address checks in inet_bind2_bucket_addr_match() and inet_bind2_bucket_match_addr_any() considering uninitialised memory and v4-mapped-v6 conflicts. Let's simplify that by saving IPv4 address as v4-mapped-v6 address and defining tb2.rcv_saddr as tb2.v6_rcv_saddr.s6_addr32[3]. Then, we can compare v6 address as is, and after checking v4-mapped-v6, we can compare v4 address easily. Also, we can remove tb2->family. Note these functions will be further refactored in the next patch. Signed-off-by: Kuniyuki Iwashima Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: rename and move ip6_dst_lookup_tunnel()

2023-10-23T07:48:57Z

At the moment ip6_dst_lookup_tunnel() is used only by bareudp. Ideally, other UDP tunnel implementations should use it, but to do so the function needs to accept new parameters that are specific for UDP tunnels, such as the ports. Prepare for these changes by renaming the function to udp_tunnel6_dst_lookup() and move it to file net/ipv6/ip6_udp_tunnel.c. This is similar to what already done for IPv4 in commit bf3fcbf7e7a0 ("ipv4: rename and move ip_route_output_tunnel()").
