* dccp: Lockless integration of CCID congestion-control pluginsGerrit Renker2009-01-041-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Based on Arnaldo's earlier patch, this patch integrates the standardised CCID congestion control plugins (CCID-2 and CCID-3) of DCCP with dccp.ko: * enables a faster connection path by eliminating the need to always go through the CCID registration lock; * updates the implementation to use only a single array whose size equals the number of configured CCIDs instead of the maximum (256); * since the CCIDs are now fixed array elements, synchronization is no longer needed, simplifying use and implementation. CCID-2 is suggested as minimum for a basic DCCP implementation (RFC 4340, 10); CCID-3 is a standards-track CCID supported by RFC 4342 and RFC 5348.

* [DCCP]: Promote CCID2 as default CCIDGerrit Renker2008-01-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses the following problems: 1. DCCP relies for its proper functioning on having at least one CCID module enabled (as in TCP plugable congestion control). Currently it is possible to disable both CCIDs and thus leave the DCCP module in a compiled, but entirely non-functional state: no sockets can be created when no CCID is available. Furthermore, the protocol is (again like TCP) not intended to be used without CCIDs. Last, a non-empty CCID list is needed for doing CCID feature negotiation. 2. Internally the default CCID that is advertised by the Linux host is set to CCID2 (DCCPF_INITIAL_CCID in include/linux/dccp.h). Disabling CCID2 in the Kconfig menu without changing the defaults leads to a failure `module not found' when trying to load the dccp module (which internally tries to load the default CCID). 3. The specification (RFC 4340, sec. 10) treats CCID2 somewhat like a `minimum common denominator'; the specification says that: * "New connections start with CCID 2 for both endpoints" * "A DCCP implementation intended for general use, such as an implementation in a general-purpose operating system kernel, SHOULD implement at least CCID 2. The intent is to make CCID 2 broadly available for interoperability [...]" Providing CCID2 as minimum-required CCID (like Reno/Cubic in TCP) thus seems reasonable. Hence this patch automatically selects CCID2 when DCCP is enabled. Documentation also added. Discussions with Ian McDonald on this subject are gratefully acknowledged.

* [DCCP] ipv6: Add missing ipv6 control socketArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2006-03-201-9/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | I guess I forgot to add it, nah, now it just works: 18:04:33.274066 IP6 ::1.1476 > ::1.5001: request (service=0) 18:04:33.334482 IP6 ::1.5001 > ::1.1476: reset (code=bad_service_code) Ditched IP_DCCP_UNLOAD_HACK, as now we would have to do it for both IPv6 and IPv4, so I'll come up with another way for freeing the control sockets in upcoming changesets.

* [INET_DIAG]: Move the tcp_diag interface to the proper placeArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2005-08-291-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this the previous setup is back, i.e. tcp_diag can be built as a module, as dccp_diag and both share the infrastructure available in inet_diag. If one selects CONFIG_INET_DIAG as module CONFIG_INET_TCP_DIAG will also be built as a module, as will CONFIG_INET_DCCP_DIAG, if CONFIG_IP_DCCP was selected static or as a module, if CONFIG_INET_DIAG is y, being statically linked CONFIG_INET_TCP_DIAG will follow suit and CONFIG_INET_DCCP_DIAG will be built in the same manner as CONFIG_IP_DCCP. Now to aim at UDP, converting it to use inet_hashinfo, so that we can use iproute2 for UDP sockets as well. Ah, just to show an example of this new infrastructure working for DCCP :-) [root@qemu ~]# ./ss -dane State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port LISTEN 0 0 *:5001 *:* ino:942 sk:cfd503a0 ESTAB 0 0 127.0.0.1:5001 127.0.0.1:32770 ino:943 sk:cfd50a60 ESTAB 0 0 127.0.0.1:32770 127.0.0.1:5001 ino:947 sk:cfd50700 TIME-WAIT 0 0 127.0.0.1:32769 127.0.0.1:5001 timer:(timewait,3.430ms,0) ino:0 sk:cf209620 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
