  • ce7bc3bf1   [TCP]: Restrict congestion control choices. ... Browse Code »

    Allow normal users to only choose among a restricted set of congestion
    control choices. The default is reno and what ever has been configured
    as default. But the policy can be changed by administrator at any time.

    For example, to allow any choice:
    cp /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_available_congestion_control \
    /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_allowed_congestion_control

  • 3d2573f7e   [TCP]: default congestion control menu ... Browse Code »

    Change how default TCP congestion control is chosen. Don't just use
    last installed module, instead allow selection during configuration,
    and make sure and use the default regardless of load order.

  • 446fda4f2   [NetLabel]: CIPSOv4 engine ... Browse Code »

    Add support for the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) to the IPv4
    network stack. CIPSO has become a de-facto standard for
    trusted/labeled networking amongst existing Trusted Operating Systems
    such as Trusted Solaris, HP-UX CMW, etc. This implementation is
    designed to be used with the NetLabel subsystem to provide explicit
    packet labeling to LSM developers.

    The CIPSO/IPv4 packet labeling works by the LSM calling a NetLabel API
    function which attaches a CIPSO label (IPv4 option) to a given socket;
    this in turn attaches the CIPSO label to every packet leaving the
    socket without any extra processing on the outbound side. On the
    inbound side the individual packet's sk_buff is examined through a
    call to a NetLabel API function to determine if a CIPSO/IPv4 label is
    present and if so the security attributes of the CIPSO label are
    returned to the caller of the NetLabel API function.

  • 15d99e02b   [TCP]: sysctl to allow TCP window > 32767 sans wscale ... Browse Code »

    Back in the dark ages, we had to be conservative and only allow 15-bit
    window fields if the window scale option was not negotiated. Some
    ancient stacks used a signed 16-bit quantity for the window field of
    the TCP header and would get confused.

    Those days are long gone, so we can use the full 16-bits by default
    now.

    There is a sysctl added so that we can still interact with such old
    stacks

  • 14c850212   [INET_SOCK]: Move struct inet_sock & helper functions to net/inet_sock.h ... Browse Code »

    To help in reducing the number of include dependencies, several files were
    touched as they were getting needed headers indirectly for stuff they use.

    Thanks also to Alan Menegotto for pointing out that net/dccp/proto.c had
    linux/dccp.h include twice.

  • 89cee8b1c   [IPV4]: Safer reassembly ... Browse Code »

    Another spin of Herbert Xu's "safer ip reassembly" patch
    for 2.6.16.

    (The original patch is here:
    http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=112281936522415&w=2
    and my only contribution is to have tested it.)

    This patch (optionally) does additional checks before accepting IP
    fragments, which can greatly reduce the possibility of reassembling
    fragments which originated from different IP datagrams.

  • 9772efb97   [TCP]: Appropriate Byte Count support ... Browse Code »

    This is an updated version of the RFC3465 ABC patch originally
    for Linux 2.6.11-rc4 by Yee-Ting Li. ABC is a way of counting
    bytes ack'd rather than packets when updating congestion control.

    The orignal ABC described in the RFC applied to a Reno style
    algorithm. For advanced congestion control there is little
    change after leaving slow start.

  • 1c2fb7f93   [IPV4]: Sysctl configurable icmp error source address. ... Browse Code »

    This patch alows you to change the source address of icmp error
    messages. It applies cleanly to 2.6.11.11 and retains the default
    behaviour.

    In the old (default) behaviour icmp error messages are sent with the ip
    of the exiting interface.

    The new behaviour (when the sysctl variable is toggled on), it will send
    the message with the ip of the interface that received the packet that
    caused the icmp error. This is the behaviour network administrators will
    expect from a router. It makes debugging complicated network layouts
    much easier. Also, all 'vendor routers' I know of have the later
    behaviour.

    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!
