This results in code with less boiler plate that is a bit easier
to read.Additionally stops us from using compatibility code in the sysctl
core, hastening the day when the compatibility code can be removed.Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network
namespace.This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the
initial network namespace in other namespaces.This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to
userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for
sysctls right from the start.Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for
limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit
platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set
to 0xffffffff.This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value
and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions.1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ.
2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit
platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch).3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and
getsockopt() calls.Suggested-by: Vlad Yasevich

I messed up the merge in d7fc02c7bae7b1cf69269992cf880a43a350cdaa, where
the conflict in question wasn't just about CTL_UNNUMBERED being removed,
but the 'strategy' field is too (sysctl handling is now done through the
/proc interface, with no duplicate protocols for reading the data).Reported-by: Larry Finger

We currently send window update SACKs every time we free up 1 PMTU
worth of data. That a lot more SACKs then necessary. Instead, we'll
now send back the actuall window every time we send a sack, and do
window-update SACKs when a fraction of the receive buffer has been
opened. The fraction is controlled with a sysctl.Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

Now that sys_sysctl is a compatiblity wrapper around /proc/sys
all sysctl strategy routines, and all ctl_name and strategy
entries in the sysctl tables are unused, and can be
revmoed.In addition neigh_sysctl_register has been modified to no longer
take a strategy argument and it's callers have been modified not
to pass one.Cc: "David Miller"

This patch introduces a new sysctl option to make IPv4 Address Scoping
configurable .In networking environments where DNAT rules in iptables prerouting
chains convert destination IP's to link-local/private IP addresses,
SCTP connections fail to establish as the INIT chunk is dropped by the
kernel due to address scope match failure.
For example to support overlapping IP addresses (same IP address with
different vlan id) a Layer-5 application listens on link local IP's,
and there is a DNAT rule that maps the destination IP to a link local
IP. Such applications never get the SCTP INIT if the address-scoping
draft is strictly followed.This sysctl configuration allows SCTP to function in such
unconventional networking environments.Sysctl options:
0 - Disable IPv4 address scoping draft altogether
1 - Enable IPv4 address scoping (default, current behavior)
2 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 private addresses in init/init-ack
3 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 link local address in init/init-ackSigned-off-by: Bhaskar Dutta

I want to compile out proc_* and sysctl_* handlers totally and
stub them to NULL depending on config options, however usage of &
will prevent this, since taking adress of NULL pointer will break
compilation.So, drop & in front of every ->proc_handler and every ->strategy
handler, it was never needed in fact.Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan

I was notified by Randy Stewart that lksctp claims to be
"the reference implementation". First of all, "the
refrence implementation" was the original implementation
of SCTP in usersapce written ty Randy and a few others.
Second, after looking at the definiton of 'reference implementation',
we don't really meet the requirements.Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

This patch adds a tunable that will allow ADD_IP to work without
AUTH for backward compatibility. The default value is off since
the default value for ADD_IP is off as well. People who need
to use ADD-IP with older implementations take risks of connection
hijacking and should consider upgrading or turning this tunable on.Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

This patch introduces autotuning to the sctp buffer management code
similar to the TCP. The buffer space can be grown if the advertised
receive window still has room. This might happen if small message
sizes are used, which is common in telecom environmens.
New tunables are introduced that provide limits to buffer growth
and memory pressure is entered if to much buffer spaces is used.Signed-off-by: Neil Horman

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.Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman

The SCTP sysctl entries are displayed in milliseconds, but stored
internally in jiffies. This results in multiple levels of msecs to
jiffies conversion and as a result produces a truncation error. This
patch makes things consistent in that we store and display defaults
in milliseconds and only convert once for use by association.
This patch also adds some sane min/max values so that we don't go off
the deep end.Signed-off-by: Vladislav Yasevich

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.Let it rip!
