2012-09-22pppoe: drop PPPOX_ZOMBIEs in pppoe_releaseXiaodong Xu1-1/+1
When PPPOE is running over a virtual ethernet interface (e.g., a bonding interface) and the user tries to delete the interface in case the PPPOE state is ZOMBIE, the kernel will loop forever while unregistering net_device for the reference count is not decreased to zero which should have been done with dev_put().

2012-08-08pptp: lookup route with the proper net namespaceGao feng1-2/+2
pptp always use init_net as the net namespace to lookup route, this will cause route lookup failed in container. because we already set the correct net namespace to struct sock in pptp_create,so fix this by using sock_net(sk) to replace &init_net.

2012-08-03ppp: add 64 bit statsKevin Groeneveld1-10/+48
Add 64 bit stats to ppp driver. The 64 bit stats include tx_bytes, rx_bytes, tx_packets and rx_packets. Other stats are still 32 bit. The 64 bit stats can be retrieved via the ndo_get_stats operation. The SIOCGPPPSTATS ioctl is still 32 bit stats only.

2012-04-13ppp: Fix race condition with queue start/stopDavid Woodhouse1-9/+6
Commit e675f0cc9a872fd152edc0c77acfed19bf28b81e ("ppp: Don't stop and restart queue on every TX packet") introduced a race condition which could leave the net queue stopped even when the channel is no longer busy. By calling netif_stop_queue() from ppp_start_xmit(), based on the return value from ppp_xmit_process() but *after* all the locks have been dropped, we could potentially do so *after* the channel has actually finished transmitting and attempted to re-wake the queue. Fix this by moving the netif_stop_queue() into ppp_xmit_process() under the xmit lock. I hadn't done this previously, because it gets called from other places than ppp_start_xmit(). But I now think it's the better option. The net queue *should* be stopped if the channel becomes congested due to writes from pppd, anyway.

2012-04-03ppp: Don't stop and restart queue on every TX packetDavid Woodhouse1-5/+9
For every transmitted packet, ppp_start_xmit() will stop the netdev queue and then, if appropriate, restart it. This causes the TX softirq to run, entirely gratuitously. This is "only" a waste of CPU time in the normal case, but it's actively harmful when the PPP device is a TEQL slave — the wakeup will cause the offending device to receive the next TX packet from the TEQL queue, when it *should* have gone to the next slave in the list. We end up seeing large bursts of packets on just *one* slave device, rather than using the full available bandwidth over all slaves. This patch fixes the problem by *not* unconditionally stopping the queue in ppp_start_xmit(). It adds a return value from ppp_xmit_process() which indicates whether the queue should be stopped or not. It *doesn't* remove the call to netif_wake_queue() from ppp_xmit_process(), because other code paths (especially from ppp_output_wakeup()) need it there and it's messy to push it out to the other callers to do it based on the return value. So we leave it in place — it's a no-op in the case where the queue wasn't stopped, so it's harmless in the TX path. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-03-04ppp: Replace uses of <linux/if_ppp.h> with <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>Paul Mackerras4-4/+4
Since all that include/linux/if_ppp.h does is #include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>, this replaces the occurrences of #include <linux/if_ppp.h> with #include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h>. It also corrects an error in Documentation/networking/l2tp.txt, where it referenced include/linux/if_ppp.h as the source of some definitions that are actually now defined in include/linux/if_pppol2tp.h.

2012-03-04ppp: Move ioctl definitions from if_ppp.h to new ppp-ioctl.hPaul Mackerras2-4/+4
This moves the definitions of the ioctls, constants and structures relating to the ppp_generic interface to userspace out from if_ppp.h to a new file, ppp-ioctl.h. The new file has my copyright since I designed and implemented the ppp_generic interface in the late 1990s. None of the contents of this file comes from the original if_ppp.h published by Carnegie Mellon University. Of the remainder of if_ppp.h, only the PPP_MTU definition was being used, and this replaces the uses of it with PPP_MRU (which is identical). Therefore, this replaces the entire file with the single line #include <linux/ppp-ioctl.h> which clearly doesn't contain any CMU code. Thus I have removed the CMU copyright notice with its problematic advertising clause, and in fact since it's only one trivial line I have not added any other copyright notice.

2012-03-04ppp: Change copyright notices from ANU to mePaul Mackerras1-26/+4
This changes the copyright notices on the PPP code that I developed in the late 1990s from being copyright The Australian National University to copyright Paul Mackerras. I can do this as I have an acknowledgement in writing from the Head of the Computer Science Department at ANU (where I worked then) that ANU does not claim any intellectual property in this code. While I'm at it, change the copyright notice from BSD-style to GNU GPL like the rest of the kernel. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-02-24ppp: fix 'ppp_mp_reconstruct bad seq' errorsBen McKeegan1-0/+23
This patch fixes a (mostly cosmetic) bug introduced by the patch 'ppp: Use SKB queue abstraction interfaces in fragment processing' found here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg153312.html The above patch rewrote and moved the code responsible for cleaning up discarded fragments but the new code does not catch every case where this is necessary. This results in some discarded fragments remaining in the queue, and triggering a 'bad seq' error on the subsequent call to ppp_mp_reconstruct. Fragments are discarded whenever other fragments of the same frame have been lost. This can generate a lot of unwanted and misleading log messages. This patch also adds additional detail to the debug logging to make it clearer which fragments were lost and which other fragments were discarded as a result of losses. (Run pppd with 'kdebug 1' option to enable debug logging.) Signed-off-by: Ben McKeegan <ben@netservers.co.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
