ipv6: Change skb->data before using icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect

2012-12-14T18:14:07Z

In function ndisc_redirect_rcv(), the skb->data points to the transport header, but function icmpv6_notify() need the skb->data points to the inner IP packet. So before using icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, change skb->data to point the inner IP packet that triggered the sending of the Redirect, and introduce struct rd_msg to make it easy.

ndisc: Unexport ndisc_{build,send}_skb().

2012-12-12T17:42:29Z

These symbols were exported for bonding device by commit 305d552a ("bonding: send IPv6 neighbor advertisement on failover"). It bacame obsolete by commit 7c899432 ("bonding, ipv4, ipv6, vlan: Handle NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER like NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS") and removed by commit 4f5762ec ("bonding: Remove obsolete source file 'bond_ipv6.c'").

net: Dont use ifindices in hash fns

2012-08-09T23:18:06Z

Eric noticed, that when there will be devices with equal indices, some hash functions that use them will become less effective as they could. Fix this in advance by mixing the net_device address into the hash value instead of the device index. This is true for arp and ndisc hash fns. The netlabel, can and llc ones are also ifindex-based, but that three are init_net-only, thus will not be affected. Many thanks to David and Eric for the hash32_ptr implementation!

ipv6: Export ndisc option parsing from ndisc.c

2012-07-12T06:39:11Z

This is going to be used internally by the rt6 redirect code. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Treat ND option 31 as userland (DNSSL support)

2012-04-12T19:56:57Z

As specified in RFC6106, DNSSL option contains one or more domain names of DNS suffixes. 8-bit identifier of the DNSSL option type as assigned by the IANA is 31. This option should also be treated as userland. Signed-off-by: Alexey I. Froloff Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Remove neigh argument from ndisc_send_redirect()

2012-01-28T02:00:08Z

Instead, compute it as-needed inside of that function using dst_neigh_lookup(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Create fast inline ipv6 neigh lookup just like ipv4.

2011-12-28T20:41:23Z

Also, create and use an rt6_bind_neighbour() in net/ipv6/route.c to consolidate some common logic. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Use universal hash for NDISC.

2011-12-28T20:06:58Z

In order to perform a proper universal hash on a vector of integers, we have to use different universal hashes on each vector element. Which means we need 4 different hash randoms for ipv6. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Kill ndisc_get_neigh() inline helper.

2011-12-03T23:29:30Z

It's only used in net/ipv6/route.c and the NULL device check is superfluous for all of the existing call sites. Just expand the __ndisc_lookup_errno() call at each location. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Remove KERNEL cpp checks from include/net

2011-04-24T17:54:56Z

These header files are never installed to user consumption, so any __KERNEL__ cpp checks are superfluous. Projects should also not copy these files into their userland utility sources and try to use them there. If they insist on doing so, the onus is on them to sanitize the headers as needed.
