ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictable

2011-08-16T01:31:37Z

[ Backport of upstream commit 87c48fa3b4630905f98268dde838ee43626a060c ] Fernando Gont reported current IPv6 fragment identification generation was not secure, because using a very predictable system-wide generator, allowing various attacks. IPv4 uses inetpeer cache to address this problem and to get good performance. We'll use this mechanism when IPv6 inetpeer is stable enough in linux-3.1 For the time being, we use jhash on destination address to provide less predictable identifications. Also remove a spinlock and use cmpxchg() to get better SMP performance. Reported-by: Fernando Gont Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

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.

net: replace __constant_{endian} uses in net headers

Base versions handle constant folding now. For headers exposed to userspace, we must only expose the __ prefixed versions. Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[IPV6]: make the protocol initialization to return an error code

2008-01-28T22:57:13Z

This patchset makes the different protocols to return an error code, so the af_inet6 module can check the initialization was correct or not. The raw6 was taken into account to be consistent with the rest of the protocols, but the registration is at the same place. Because the raw6 has its own init function, the proto and the ops structure can be moved inside the raw6.c file. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
