net: ipv6: use common fib_default_rule_pref

2015-09-09T21:19:50Z

This switches IPv6 policy routing to use the shared fib_default_rule_pref() function of IPv4 and DECnet. It is also used in multicast routing for IPv4 as well as IPv6. The motivation for this patch is a complaint about iproute2 behaving inconsistent between IPv4 and IPv6 when adding policy rules: Formerly, IPv6 rules were assigned a fixed priority of 0x3FFF whereas for IPv4 the assigned priority value was decreased with each rule added. Since then all users of the default_pref field have been converted to assign the generic function fib_default_rule_pref(), fib_nl_newrule() may just use it directly instead. Therefore get rid of the function pointer altogether and make fib_default_rule_pref() static, as it's not used outside fib_rules.c anymore. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: move fib_rules_unregister() under rtnl lock

2015-04-03T00:52:34Z

We have to hold rtnl lock for fib_rules_unregister() otherwise the following race could happen: fib_rules_unregister(): fib_nl_delrule(): ... ... ... ops = lookup_rules_ops(); list_del_rcu(&ops->list); list_for_each_entry(ops->rules) { fib_rules_cleanup_ops(ops); ... list_del_rcu(); list_del_rcu(); } Note, net->rules_mod_lock is actually not needed at all, either upper layer netns code or rtnl lock guarantees we are safe.

net: cleanup unsigned to unsigned int

Use of "unsigned int" is preferred to bare "unsigned" in net tree. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

decnet: Stop using NLA_PUT*().

2012-04-02T08:33:42Z

These macros contain a hidden goto, and are thus extremely error prone and make code hard to audit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE to non-modules

2011-10-31T23:30:30Z

These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence of module.h from everywhere. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

net: rtnetlink: decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families

2010-04-26T14:13:54Z

Decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families in socket.h to be able to add rtnetlink interfaces to code that is not a real address family without increasing AF_MAX/NPROTO. This will be used to add support for multicast route dumping from all tables as the proc interface can't be extended to support anything but the main table without breaking compatibility. This partialy undoes the patch to introduce independant families for routing rules and converts ipmr routing rules to a new rtnetlink family. Similar to that patch, values up to 127 are reserved for real address families, values above that may be used arbitrarily. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy

net: fib_rules: mark arguments to fib_rules_register const and __net_initdata

2010-04-26T14:02:04Z

fib_rules_register() duplicates the template passed to it without modification, mark the argument as const. Additionally the templates are only needed when instantiating a new namespace, so mark them as __net_initdata, which means they can be discarded when CONFIG_NET_NS=n. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy
