(e.g. allocating softint). Without this change, it panics. It's bad because
resource shortage really occured when a lot of pseudo interface is created.
To avoid this problem, don't panic and change return value of if_initialize()
and if_attach() to int. Caller fanction will be recover from error cleanly by
checking the return value.
PPPOE_SESSION_LOCK protects variables used in PPP packet
processing, on the other hand PPPOE_PARAM_LOCK protects
the other variables used to establish a PPPoE session id.
Those locks isn't acquired in the same time because the
PPP packet processing doesn't work without PPPoE session id.
By the reason, the locks can be integrated into PPPOE_LOCK.
Add locking notes later.
For the convinience, ifconfig without "mediaopt fullduplex" sets IFM_FDX
automatically for those medias. Without this change, "ifconfig xxN mediaopt
10Gbase-T" (without "mediaopt fullduplex") returns EINVAL if a
driver doesn't call ifmedia_add() without IFM_FDX because ifmedia_match()
returns NULL.
keysock now protects itself by its own mutex, which means that
the rawcb list is protected by two different mutexes (keysock's one
and softnet_lock for rtsock), of course it's useless.
Fix the situation by having a discrete rawcb list for each.
Thanks to removal of LIST_ENTRY of struct route, rtcaches are accessed only by
their users. And in existing usages a rtcache is guranteed to be not accessed
simultaneously. So the rtcache framework doesn't need any exclusion controls
in itself.
loop_clone_create() uses ncpu in the following call-path.
- loop_clone_create()
- if_attach()
- if_percpuq_create()
- softint_establish() // use ncpu
- percpu_foreach() // use ncpu
However, loopinit() of built-in module is called from
module_init_class(MODULE_CLASS_DRIVER) which is called before ncpu is counted
up in some architectures. So, It is too fast.
On the other hand, it is too late for rump netinet component to call
loop_clone_create() in config_finalize().
As the result, loop_clone_create() shuld be called in loopattach() for built-in
module, and in loopinit() for dynamic module.
XXX need pullup -8 branch
The change introduces a global generation counter that is incremented when any
routes have been added or deleted. When a rtcache caches a rtentry into itself,
it also stores a snapshot of the generation counter. If the snapshot equals to
the global counter, the cache is still valid, otherwise invalidated.
One drawback of the change is that all rtcaches of all protocol families are
invalidated when any routes of any protocol families are added or deleted.
If that matters, we should have separate generation counters based on
protocol families.
This change removes LIST_ENTRY from struct route, which fixes a part of
PR kern/52515.
Operations on SAD and SPD are executed via PF_KEY socks. The operations
include deletions of SAs and SPs that will use synchronization mechanisms
such as pserialize_perform to wait for references to SAs and SPs to be
released. It is known that using such mechanisms with holding softnet_lock
causes a dead lock. We should avoid the situation.
route(8) passes a sockaddr for netmask that is truncated with its
prefixlen. However the kernel basically doesn't expect such format
and may read beyond the data. So restore the original length of the
the data at the beginning of the kernel for the rest components.
Failures of ATF tests such as route_flags_blackhole6 should
be fixed.
