• 955189efb   [IPV6]: ADDRCONF: Use our standard algorithm for randomized ifid. ... Browse Code »

  RFC 3041 describes an algorithm to generate random interface
  identifier. In RFC 3041bis, it is allowed to use different
  algorithm than one described in RFC 3041.

  So, let's use our standard pseudo random algorithm to simplify
  our implementation.

• 5ab4a6c81   [IPV6] mcast: Fix multiple issues in MLDv2 reports. ... Browse Code »

  The below "jumbo" patch fixes the following problems in MLDv2.

  1) Add necessary "ntohs" to recent "pskb_may_pull" check [breaks
  all nonzero source queries on little-endian (!)]

  2) Add locking to source filter list [resend of prior patch]

  3) fix "mld_marksources()" to
  a) send nothing when all queried sources are excluded
  b) send full exclude report when source queried sources are
  not excluded
  c) don't schedule a timer when there's nothing to report

  NOTE: RFC 3810 specifies the source list should be saved and each
  source reported individually as an IS_IN. This is an obvious DOS
  path, requiring the host to store and then multicast as many sources
  as are queried (e.g., millions...). This alternative sends a full,
  relevant report that's limited to number of sources present on the
  machine.

  4) fix "add_grec()" to send empty-source records when it should
  The original check doesn't account for a non-empty source
  list with all sources inactive; the new code keeps that
  short-circuit case, and also generates the group header
  with an empty list if needed.

  5) fix mca_crcount decrement to be after add_grec(), which needs
  its original value

  These issues (other than item #1 ;-) ) were all found by Yan Zheng,
  much thanks!

  NETDEV_UP might be sent even if the link attached to the interface was
  not ready. DAD does not make sense in such case, so we won't do so.
  After interface

  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!
