This patch prepares the namespace support for layer 3 protocol trackers. Basically, this modifies the following interfaces: * nf_ct_l3proto_[un]register_sysctl. * nf_conntrack_l3proto_[un]register. We add a new nf_ct_l3proto_net is used to get the pernet data of l3proto. This adds rhe new struct nf_ip_net that is used to store the sysctl header and l3proto_ipv4,l4proto_tcp(6),l4proto_udp(6),l4proto_icmp(v6) because the protos such tcp and tcp6 use the same data,so making nf_ip_net as a field of netns_ct is the easiest way to manager it.

We add a new net_id field to struct nf_conntrack_l4proto that is used to store the pernet_operations id for each layer 4 protocol tracker.

2012-06-07netfilter: nf_ct_h323: fix bug in rtcp nattingPablo Neira Ayuso
The nat_rtp_rtcp hook takes two separate parameters port and rtp_port. port is expected to be the real h245 address (found inside the packet). rtp_port is the even number closest to port (RTP ports are even and RTCP ports are odd). However currently, both port and rtp_port are having same value (both are rounded to nearest even numbers). This works well in case of openlogicalchannel with media (RTP/even) port. But in case of openlogicalchannel for media control (RTCP/odd) port, h245 address in the packet is wrongly modified to have an even port. I am attaching a pcap demonstrating the problem, for any further analysis. This behavior was introduced around v2.6.19 while rewriting the helper.

2012-06-06mac80211: unify SW/offload remain-on-channelJohannes Berg
Redesign all the off-channel code, getting rid of the generic off-channel work concept, replacing it with a simple remain-on-channel list. This fixes a number of small issues with the ROC implementation: * offloaded remain-on-channel couldn't be queued, now we can queue it as well, if needed * in iwlwifi (the only user) offloaded ROC is mutually exclusive with scanning, use the new queue to handle that case -- I expect that it will later depend on a HW flag The bigger issue though is that there's a bad bug in the current implementation: if we get a mgmt TX request while HW roc is active, and this new request has a wait time, we actually schedule a software ROC instead since we can't guarantee the existing offloaded ROC will still be that long. To fix this, the queuing mechanism was needed. The queuing mechanism for offloaded ROC isn't yet optimal, ideally we should add API to have the HW extend the ROC if needed. We could add that later but for now use a software implementation. Overall, this unifies the behaviour between the offloaded and software-implemented case as much as possible.

2012-06-06mac80211: do remain-on-channel while idleJohannes Berg
The IDLE handling in HW off-channel is broken right now since we turn off IDLE only when the off-channel period already started. Therefore, all drivers that use it today (only iwlwifi!) must support off-channel while idle, so playing with idle isn't needed at all. Off-channel in general, since it's no longer used for authentication/association, shouldn't affect PS, so also remove that logic.

2012-06-06libceph: make ceph_con_revoke_message() a msg opAlex Elder
ceph_con_revoke_message() is passed both a message and a ceph connection. A ceph_msg allocated for incoming messages on a connection always has a pointer to that connection, so there's no need to provide the connection when revoking such a message. Note that the existing logic does not preclude the message supplied being a null/bogus message pointer. The only user of this interface is the OSD client, and the only value an osd client passes is a request's r_reply field. That is always non-null (except briefly in an error path in ceph_osdc_alloc_request(), and that drops the only reference so the request won't ever have a reply to revoke). So we can safely assume the passed-in message is non-null, but add a BUG_ON() to make it very obvious we are imposing this restriction. Rename the function ceph_msg_revoke_incoming() to reflect that it is really an operation on an incoming message.

ceph_con_revoke() is passed both a message and a ceph connection. Now that any message associated with a connection holds a pointer to that connection, there's no need to provide the connection when revoking a message. This has the added benefit of precluding the possibility of the providing the wrong connection pointer. If the message's connection pointer is null, it is not being tracked by any connection, so revoking it is a no-op. This is supported as a convenience for upper layers, so they can revoke a message that is not actually "in flight."

2012-06-06libceph: have messages take a connection referenceAlex Elder
There are essentially two types of ceph messages: incoming and outgoing. Outgoing messages are always allocated via ceph_msg_new(), and at the time of their allocation they are not associated with any particular connection. Incoming messages are always allocated via ceph_con_in_msg_alloc(), and they are initially associated with the connection from which incoming data will be placed into the message. When an outgoing message gets sent, it becomes associated with a connection and remains that way until the message is successfully sent. The association of an incoming message goes away at the point it is sent to an upper layer via a con->ops->dispatch method. This patch implements reference counting for all ceph messages, such that every message holds a reference (and a pointer) to a connection if and only if it is associated with that connection (as described above). For background, here is an explanation of the ceph message lifecycle, emphasizing when an association exists between a message and a connection. Outgoing Messages An outgoing message is "owned" by its allocator, from the time it is allocated in ceph_msg_new() up to the point it gets queued for sending in ceph_con_send(). Prior to that point the message's msg->con pointer is null; at the point it is queued for sending its message pointer is assigned to refer to the connection. At that time the message is inserted into a connection's out_queue list. When a message on the out_queue list has been sent to the socket layer to be put on the wire, it is transferred out of that list and into the connection's out_sent list. At that point it is still owned by the connection, and will remain so until an acknowledgement is received from the recipient that indicates the message was successfully transferred. When such an acknowledgement is received (in process_ack()), the message is removed from its list (in ceph_msg_remove()), at which point it is no longer associated with the connection. So basically, any time a message is on one of a connection's lists, it is associated with that connection. Reference counting outgoing messages can thus be done at the points a message is added to the out_queue (in ceph_con_send()) and the point it is removed from either its two lists (in ceph_msg_remove())--at which point its connection pointer becomes null. Incoming Messages When an incoming message on a connection is getting read (in read_partial_message()) and there is no message in con->in_msg, a new one is allocated using ceph_con_in_msg_alloc(). At that point the message is associated with the connection. Once that message has been completely and successfully read, it is passed to upper layer code using the connection's con->ops->dispatch method. At that point the association between the message and the connection no longer exists. Reference counting of connections for incoming messages can be done by taking a reference to the connection when the message gets allocated, and releasing that reference when it gets handed off using the dispatch method. We should never fail to get a connection reference for a message--the since the caller should already hold one. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@inktank.com> Reviewed-by: Sage Weil <sage@inktank.com>
2012-06-06libceph: have messages point to their connectionAlex Elder
When a ceph message is queued for sending it is placed on a list of pending messages (ceph_connection->out_queue). When they are actually sent over the wire, they are moved from that list to another (ceph_connection->out_sent). When acknowledgement for the message is received, it is removed from the sent messages list. During that entire time the message is "in the possession" of a single ceph connection. Keep track of that connection in the message. This will be used in the next patch (and is a helpful bit of information for debugging anyway).

In addition, make that assignment inside the function (again, since that's precisely what it's intended to be used for). This allows us to return what is now provided via the passed-in address of a "skip" variable. The return type is now Boolean to be explicit that there are only two possible outcomes. Make sure the result of an ->alloc_msg method call always sets the value of *skip properly. Signed-off-by: Alex Elder <elder@inktank.com> Reviewed-by: Sage Weil <sage@inktank.com>

This breaks refcounting on the ceph_osd structs that contain the ceph_connections, and could lead to all manner of strangeness.

As libertas uses mesh mode interfaces but has no join_mesh callback and we can't simply break it, keep some compatibility code for that case and configure the channel directly for it.
