4ac63ad6c5 [IPVS]: Fix sched registration race when checking for name collision.
The register_ip_vs_scheduler() checks for the scheduler with the
same name under the read-locked __ip_vs_sched_lock, then drops,
takes it for writing and puts the scheduler in list.

This is racy, since we can have a race window between the lock
being re-locked for writing.

The fix is to search the scheduler with the given name right under
the write-locked __ip_vs_sched_lock.

a014bc8f0f [IPVS]: Don't leak sysctl tables if the scheduler registration fails.
In case we load lblc or lblcr module we can leak some sysctl
tables if the call to register_ip_vs_scheduler() fails.

I've looked at the register_ip_vs_scheduler() code and saw, that
the only reason to fail is the name collision, so I think that
with some 3rd party schedulers this becomes a relevant issue. No?

d535a916cd [IPVS]: Fix compiler warning about unused register_ip_vs_protocol
This is silly, but I have turned the CONFIG_IP_VS to m,
to check the compilation of one (recently sent) fix
and set all the CONFIG_IP_VS_PROTO_XXX options to n to
speed up the compilation.

In this configuration the compiler warns me about

  CC [M]  net/ipv4/ipvs/ip_vs_proto.o
net/ipv4/ipvs/ip_vs_proto.c:49: warning: 'register_ip_vs_protocol' defined but not used

Indeed. With no protocols selected there are no
calls to this function - all are compiled out with
ifdefs.

Maybe the best fix would be to surround this call with
ifdef-s or tune the Kconfig dependences, but I think that
marking this register function as __used is enough. No?

I removed the binary sysctl handler for those messages and also removed
the definitions in ip_vs.h. The alternative would be to implement a 
proper strategy handler, but syscall sysctl is deprecated.

There are other sysctl definitions that are commented out or work with 
the default sysctl_data strategy. I did not touch these.

efac52762b [IPVS]: Synchronize closing of Connections
This patch makes the master daemon to sync the connection when it is about
to close.  This makes the connections on the backup to close or timeout
according their state.  Before the sync was performed only if the
connection is in ESTABLISHED state which always made the connections to
timeout in the hard coded 3 minutes. However the Andy Gospodarek's patch
([IPVS]: use proper timeout instead of fixed value) effectively did nothing
more than increasing this to 15 minutes (Established state timeout).  So
this patch makes use of proper timeout since it syncs the connections on
status changes to FIN_WAIT (2min timeout) and CLOSE (10sec timeout).
However if the backup misses CLOSE hopefully it did not miss FIN_WAIT.
Otherwise we will just have to wait for the ESTABLISHED state timeout. As
it is without this patch.  This way the number of the hanging connections
on the backup is kept to minimum. And very few of them will be left to
timeout with a long timeout.

This is important if we want to make use of the fix for the real server
overcommit on master/backup fail-over.

1e356f9cdf [IPVS]: Bind connections on stanby if the destination exists
This patch fixes the problem with node overload on director fail-over.
Given the scenario: 2 nodes each accepting 3 connections at a time and 2
directors, director failover occurs when the nodes are fully loaded (6
connections to the cluster) in this case the new director will assign
another 6 connections to the cluster, If the same real servers exist
there.

The problem turned to be in not binding the inherited connections to
the real servers (destinations) on the backup director. Therefore:
"ipvsadm -l" reports 0 connections:
root@test2:~# ipvsadm -l
IP Virtual Server version 1.2.1 (size=4096)
Prot LocalAddress:Port Scheduler Flags
  -> RemoteAddress:Port           Forward Weight ActiveConn InActConn
TCP  test2.local:5999 wlc
  -> node473.local:5999           Route   1000   0          0
  -> node484.local:5999           Route   1000   0          0

while "ipvs -lnc" is right
root@test2:~# ipvsadm -lnc
IPVS connection entries
pro expire state       source             virtual            destination
TCP 14:56  ESTABLISHED 192.168.0.10:39164 192.168.0.222:5999
192.168.0.51:5999
TCP 14:59  ESTABLISHED 192.168.0.10:39165 192.168.0.222:5999
192.168.0.52:5999

So the patch I am sending fixes the problem by binding the received
connections to the appropriate service on the backup director, if it
exists, else the connection will be handled the old way. So if the
master and the backup directors are synchronized in terms of real
services there will be no problem with server over-committing since
new connections will not be created on the nonexistent real services
on the backup. However if the service is created later on the backup,
the binding will be performed when the next connection update is
received. With this patch the inherited connections will show as
inactive on the backup:

root@test2:~# ipvsadm -l

5c81833c2f [IPVS]: use proper timeout instead of fixed value
Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout
specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout
seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the
ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of
the configured timeout values.

The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

16fcec35e7 [NETFILTER]: Fix/improve deadlock condition on module removal netfilter
So I've had a deadlock reported to me.  I've found that the sequence of
events goes like this:

1) process A (modprobe) runs to remove ip_tables.ko

2) process B (iptables-restore) runs and calls setsockopt on a netfilter socket,
increasing the ip_tables socket_ops use count

3) process A acquires a file lock on the file ip_tables.ko, calls remove_module
in the kernel, which in turn executes the ip_tables module cleanup routine,
which calls nf_unregister_sockopt

4) nf_unregister_sockopt, seeing that the use count is non-zero, puts the
calling process into uninterruptible sleep, expecting the process using the
socket option code to wake it up when it exits the kernel

4) the user of the socket option code (process B) in do_ipt_get_ctl, calls
ipt_find_table_lock, which in this case calls request_module to load
ip_tables_nat.ko

5) request_module forks a copy of modprobe (process C) to load the module and
blocks until modprobe exits.

6) Process C. forked by request_module process the dependencies of
ip_tables_nat.ko, of which ip_tables.ko is one.

7) Process C attempts to lock the request module and all its dependencies, it
blocks when it attempts to lock ip_tables.ko (which was previously locked in
step 3)

Theres not really any great permanent solution to this that I can see, but I've
developed a two part solution that corrects the problem

Part 1) Modifies the nf_sockopt registration code so that, instead of using a
use counter internal to the nf_sockopt_ops structure, we instead use a pointer
to the registering modules owner to do module reference counting when nf_sockopt
calls a modules set/get routine.  This prevents the deadlock by preventing set 4
from happening.

Part 2) Enhances the modprobe utilty so that by default it preforms non-blocking
remove operations (the same way rmmod does), and add an option to explicity
request blocking operation.  So if you select blocking operation in modprobe you
can still cause the above deadlock, but only if you explicity try (and since
root can do any old stupid thing it would like....  :)  ).

28e53bddf8 unify flush_work/flush_work_keventd and rename it to cancel_work_sync
flush_work(wq, work) doesn't need the first parameter, we can use cwq->wq
(this was possible from the very beginnig, I missed this).  So we can unify
flush_work_keventd and flush_work.

Also, rename flush_work() to cancel_work_sync() and fix all callers.
Perhaps this is not the best name, but "flush_work" is really bad.

(akpm: this is why the earlier patches bypassed maintainers)

c214b2cc5f ipvs: flush defense_work before module unload
net/ipv4/ipvs/ip_vs_core.c

	module_exit
	    ip_vs_cleanup
		ip_vs_control_cleanup
		    cancel_rearming_delayed_work
	// done

This is unsafe.  The module may be unloaded and the memory may be freed
while defense_work's handler is still running/preempted.

Do flush_work(&defense_work.work) after cancel_rearming_delayed_work().

Alternatively, we could add flush_work() to cancel_rearming_delayed_work(),
but note that we can't change cancel_delayed_work() in the same manner
because it may be called from atomic context.

27a884dc3c [SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)

Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

2e07fa9cd3 [SK_BUFF]: Use offsets for skb->{mac,network,transport}_header on 64bit architectures
With this we save 8 bytes per network packet, leaving a 4 bytes hole to be used
in further shrinking work, likely with the offsetization of other pointers,
such as ->{data,tail,end}, at the cost of adds, that were minimized by the
usual practice of setting skb->{mac,nh,n}.raw to a local variable that is then
accessed multiple times in each function, it also is not more expensive than
before with regards to most of the handling of such headers, like setting one
of these headers to another (transport to network, etc), or subtracting, adding
to/from it, comparing them, etc.

Now we have this layout for sk_buff on a x86_64 machine:

On 32 bits nothing changes, and pointers continue to be used with the compiler
turning all this abstraction layer into dust. But there are some sk_buff
validation tricks that are now possible, humm... :-)

0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).
