ifioctl_common(). Since the first tun_ioctl() call already holds
the simplelock, the second tun_ioctl() call will wait forever to
acquire it: deadlock.
To fix this, wait to acquire the lock until tuninit().
When a link-layer address changes (e.g., ifconfig ex0 link
02🇩🇪ad:be:ef:02 active), send a gratuitous ARP and/or a Neighbor
Advertisement to update the network-/link-layer address bindings
on our LAN peers.
Refuse a change of ethernet address to the address 00:00:00:00:00:00
or to any multicast/broadcast address. (Thanks matt@.)
Reorder ifnet ioctl operations so that driver ioctls may inherit
the functions of their "class"---ether_ioctl(), fddi_ioctl(), et
cetera---and the class ioctls may inherit from the generic ioctl,
ifioctl_common(), but both driver- and class-ioctls may override
the generic behavior. Make network drivers share more code.
Distinguish a "factory" link-layer address from others for the
purposes of both protecting that address from deletion and computing
EUI64.
Return consistent, appropriate error codes from network drivers.
Improve readability. KNF.
*** Details ***
In if_attach(), always initialize the interface ioctl routine,
ifnet->if_ioctl, if the driver has not already initialized it.
Delete if_ioctl == NULL tests everywhere else, because it cannot
happen.
In the ioctl routines of network interfaces, inherit common ioctl
behaviors by calling either ifioctl_common() or whichever ioctl
routine is appropriate for the class of interface---e.g., ether_ioctl()
for ethernets.
Stop (ab)using SIOCSIFADDR and start to use SIOCINITIFADDR. In
the user->kernel interface, SIOCSIFADDR's argument was an ifreq,
but on the protocol->ifnet interface, SIOCSIFADDR's argument was
an ifaddr. That was confusing, and it would work against me as I
make it possible for a network interface to overload most ioctls.
On the protocol->ifnet interface, replace SIOCSIFADDR with
SIOCINITIFADDR. In ifioctl(), return EPERM if userland tries to
invoke SIOCINITIFADDR.
In ifioctl(), give the interface the first shot at handling most
interface ioctls, and give the protocol the second shot, instead
of the other way around. Finally, let compatibility code (COMPAT_OSOCK)
take a shot.
Pull device initialization out of switch statements under
SIOCINITIFADDR. For example, pull ..._init() out of any switch
statement that looks like this:
switch (...->sa_family) {
case ...:
..._init();
...
break;
...
default:
..._init();
...
break;
}
Rewrite many if-else clauses that handle all permutations of IFF_UP
and IFF_RUNNING to use a switch statement,
switch (x & (IFF_UP|IFF_RUNNING)) {
case 0:
...
break;
case IFF_RUNNING:
...
break;
case IFF_UP:
...
break;
case IFF_UP|IFF_RUNNING:
...
break;
}
unifdef lots of code containing #ifdef FreeBSD, #ifdef NetBSD, and
#ifdef SIOCSIFMTU, especially in fwip(4) and in ndis(4).
In ipw(4), remove an if_set_sadl() call that is out of place.
In nfe(4), reuse the jumbo MTU logic in ether_ioctl().
Let ethernets register a callback for setting h/w state such as
promiscuous mode and the multicast filter in accord with a change
in the if_flags: ether_set_ifflags_cb() registers a callback that
returns ENETRESET if the caller should reset the ethernet by calling
if_init(), 0 on success, != 0 on failure. Pull common code from
ex(4), gem(4), nfe(4), sip(4), tlp(4), vge(4) into ether_ioctl(),
and register if_flags callbacks for those drivers.
Return ENOTTY instead of EINVAL for inappropriate ioctls. In
zyd(4), use ENXIO instead of ENOTTY to indicate that the device is
not any longer attached.
Add to if_set_sadl() a boolean 'factory' argument that indicates
whether a link-layer address was assigned by the factory or some
other source. In a comment, recommend using the factory address
for generating an EUI64, and update in6_get_hw_ifid() to prefer a
factory address to any other link-layer address.
Add a routing message, RTM_LLINFO_UPD, that tells protocols to
update the binding of network-layer addresses to link-layer addresses.
Implement this message in IPv4 and IPv6 by sending a gratuitous
ARP or a neighbor advertisement, respectively. Generate RTM_LLINFO_UPD
messages on a change of an interface's link-layer address.
In ether_ioctl(), do not let SIOCALIFADDR set a link-layer address
that is broadcast/multicast or equal to 00:00:00:00:00:00.
Make ether_ioctl() call ifioctl_common() to handle ioctls that it
does not understand.
In gif(4), initialize if_softc and use it, instead of assuming that
the gif_softc and ifp overlap.
Let ifioctl_common() handle SIOCGIFADDR.
Sprinkle rtcache_invariants(), which checks on DIAGNOSTIC kernels
that certain invariants on a struct route are satisfied.
In agr(4), rewrite agr_ioctl_filter() to be a bit more explicit
about the ioctls that we do not allow on an agr(4) member interface.
bzero -> memset. Delete unnecessary casts to void *. Use
sockaddr_in_init() and sockaddr_in6_init(). Compare pointers with
NULL instead of "testing truth". Replace some instances of (type
*)0 with NULL. Change some K&R prototypes to ANSI C, and join
lines.
that set it, ended up causing the kernel to reference random garbage. Ignore
it for compatibility, but add a DIAGNOSTIC message so that userland programs
that set it can be fixed. The only one so far is pppd. Hi dyoung!
initialize it. Use sc_dev in etherip_clone_destroy() instead of
casting the softc to struct device *.
Remove gratuitous casts. Use device_t and cfdata_t throughout.
unique. Some brands of ADSL modems pick a hard-coded session ID which
would otherwise make it impossible to use two of them in the same system
simultaneously.
The later changes were only cosmetic, cause problems in IPv6-only-
connections (reported by Wolfgang Solfrank in private mail), as well
as reintroducing the original bug again.
synchronously, but insert a (varying) delay. Before we have only been
decoupled from the peer via network latency - now we introduce some
explicit delay. This, at least, creates batter serialized debug output.
However, if we have to reconnect because of an authentication failure,
the peer may have just been unable to access it's radius server. (I have
a setup where this seems to happen every now and then, depending on time
of day.) Backoff reconnect in this cases seriously longer - this is better
than hitting the max-auth-failure limit within a few seconds.
(Maybe it shouldn't even be inline - but I'd have to work out where to put it).
VLAN_INPUT_TAG() now calls vlan_input_tag() and does '_errcase' when it fails.
In reality the callers should all be changed, _errcase is ALWAYS continue,
which used to 'continue' (ie break) the do .. while (0) loop - not the
intended action!
Found by ramming all the kernel sources through a modified lint and grepping
for a specific error.
While here enclose the body of VLAN_OUTPUT_TAG() in ().
like it is a device_t.
In tap_clone_creator(), set cf_fstate to FSTATE_FOUND instead of
_NOTFOUND to avoid a panic in config_detach() on a DIAGNOSTIC
kernel. XXX I'm not sure that that is the right fix.
These changes should put a stop to the crash described in kern/38759.
an AF_LINK socket, only, to be consistent with SIOC[ADG]LIFADDR
behavior on AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets. Let us create AF_LINK
sockets for this purpose. Note that most operations on AF_LINK
sockets are not implemented.
Move the function+line printing into GRE_DPRINTF().
Retire gre_closef(). Retire gre_join(). Constify gre_reconf(),
and don't pass it an LWP any longer.
Make this work in the new file descriptor regime. Add a kernel
thread per gre(4) instance whose purpose is to install the socket
into proc0's file descriptor table. Add gre_fp_send() and
gre_fp_recv() for passing file_t pointers to proc0.
Fix locking: don't solock() in the socket upcall, where it is
already held. Do solock() before calling soconnect().
Simplify reconfiguration.
Update a comment that mentions finding a less specific route, since
we don't do that any more.
proclist_mutex and proclist_lock into a single adaptive mutex (proc_lock).
Implications:
- Inspecting process state requires thread context, so signals can no longer
be sent from a hardware interrupt handler. Signal activity must be
deferred to a soft interrupt or kthread.
- As the proc state locking is simplified, it's now safe to take exit()
and wait() out from under kernel_lock.
- The system spends less time at IPL_SCHED, and there is less lock activity.
- Socket layer becomes MP safe.
- Unix protocols become MP safe.
- Allows protocol processing interrupts to safely block on locks.
- Fixes a number of race conditions.
With much feedback from matt@ and plunky@.
failure of wpa_supplicant(8) to re-key promptly, as reported in

- Make bpf's read timeout work more correctly with select/poll.
- A fix for catchpacket() which delays calling bpf_wakeup() until
the state has been updated.
(rev 1.125): correct the check for fd_getsock() failure in
gre_socreate().
The second bug is more complicated to fix. Since rev 1.125,
gre_reconf() is using the file descriptor table of the current
process instead of the process 0's (the kernel's).
1. Please don't cast function pointers to (void *), use the full function
prototype cast; this is for archs where a function pointer is not a regular
pointer.
2. Compare pointers to NULL not 0.
Use fewer 'error = ...; break;' statements and more 'return
...;'
Make the SIOCSIFFLAGS case more clear by using a switch
statement instead of an if-else if-else chain.
Shorten a staircase, and remove two unnecessary curly
braces.
- Add a lot of missing selinit() and seldestroy() calls.
- Merge selwakeup() and selnotify() calls into a single selnotify().
- Add an additional 'events' argument to selnotify() call. It will
indicate which event (POLL_IN, POLL_OUT, etc) happen. If unknown,
zero may be used.
Note: please pass appropriate value of 'events' where possible.
Proposed on: <tech-kern>
the opportunity to handle an ioctl before generic ifioctl handling
occurs. This will ease extending the kernel and sharing of code
between drivers.
First steps: Make the signature of ifioctl_common() match struct
ifinet->if_ioctl. Convert SIOCSIFCAP and SIOCSIFMTU to the new
ifioctl() regime, throughout the kernel.
1 Extract subroutine if_dl_create() from if_alloc_sadl().
if_dl_create() allocates a link-layer ifaddr.
2 Extract subroutine ifioctl_common() from ifioctl(). ifioctl_common()
will be the basis for an ifnet "superclass" whose functions
drivers may inherit. Very simple drivers may set ifnet->if_ioctl
= ifioctl_common. More sophisticated drivers will set ifnet->if_ioctl
= driver_ioctl. driver_ioctl() will call ifioctl_common() to
re-use the common code.
reference, but mark the cache 'invalid'. Let the next user of the
route cache check to whether or not the cache is valid, and update
the rtentry reference if necessary. In this way, avoid hairy
splnet()/splx() protection of route caches, which I never did trust.
In rtcache_lookup2(), use the return values of rtcache_validate()
and _rtcache_init() instead of looking at _ro_rt. Also, check the
return code of rtcache_setdst() for an error.
