neigh: Factor out ___neigh_lookup_noref

2015-03-04T05:23:23Z

While looking at the mpls code I found myself writing yet another version of neigh_lookup_noref. We currently have __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref. So to make my work a little easier and to make it a smidge easier to verify/maintain the mpls code in the future I stopped and wrote ___neigh_lookup_noref. Then I rewote __ipv4_lookup_noref and __ipv6_lookup_noref in terms of this new function. I tested my new version by verifying that the same code is generated in ip_finish_output2 and ip6_finish_output2 where these functions are inlined. To get to ___neigh_lookup_noref I added a new neighbour cache table function key_eq. So that the static size of the key would be available. I also added __neigh_lookup_noref for people who want to to lookup a neighbour table entry quickly but don't know which neibhgour table they are going to look up. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

ndisc.h: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-09-21T18:01:39Z

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

ipv6: don't call fib6_run_gc() until routing is ready

2013-09-11T21:04:09Z

When loading the ipv6 module, ndisc_init() is called before ip6_route_init(). As the former registers a handler calling fib6_run_gc(), this opens a window to run the garbage collector before necessary data structures are initialized. If a network device is initialized in this window, adding MAC address to it triggers a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event, leading to a crash in fib6_clean_all(). Take the event handler registration out of ndisc_init() into a separate function ndisc_late_init() and move it after ip6_route_init(). Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

vxlan: add ipv6 proxy support

ndisc: Convert use of typedef ctl_table to struct ctl_table

2013-06-20T06:18:07Z

This typedef is unnecessary and should just be removed. Signed-off-by: Joe Perches Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ndisc: Move ndisc_opt_addr_space() to include/net/ndisc.h.

2013-01-21T18:33:14Z

This also makes ndisc_opt_addr_data() and ndisc_fill_addr_option() use ndisc_opt_addr_space(). Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ndisc: Introduce __ipv6_neigh_lookup_noref().

2013-01-17T23:38:18Z

This function, which looks up neighbour entry for an IPv6 address without touching refcnt, will be used for patches to remove dependency on rt->n (neighbour entry in rt6_info). Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ndisc: Remove tbl argument for __ipv6_neigh_lookup().

2013-01-17T23:38:18Z

We can refer to nd_tbl directly. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Change skb->data before using icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect

2012-12-14T18:14:07Z

In function ndisc_redirect_rcv(), the skb->data points to the transport header, but function icmpv6_notify() need the skb->data points to the inner IP packet. So before using icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, change skb->data to point the inner IP packet that triggered the sending of the Redirect, and introduce struct rd_msg to make it easy.
