Re: [PATCH 1/1] [DCCP][QPOLICY]: External interface changes
Here, as David pointed out, we are not sure wheter skb->priority can be used. But that's not the point of this patch. The point is to request for comment when it comes to separation of externally visible interface and internal per And that is of course a simple mistake. -- Regards, Tomasz Grobelny --

[PATCH] [ROSE] [AX25] rose_get_route() added
This patch offers a new function, named rose_get_route(), called by rose_route_frame() in order to find a route each time a packet must be routed toward a specific address handled by one of the adjacent nodes in a list. It returns the address of the adjacent node if it is connected, otherwise it returns a NULL. In that case, the calling function will initiate a new connection as before, when it was calling rose_get_neigh(). However, the new thing is that if a route is already opened via an adjacen...

[PATCH] via-velocity: fix vlan receipt

[PATCH net-2.6] tcp_probe buffer overflow and incorrect retu...
tcp_probe has a bounds-checking bug that causes many programs (less, python) to crash reading /proc/net/tcp_probe. When it outputs a log line to the reader, it only checks if that line alone will fit in the reader's buffer, rather than that line and all the previous lines it has already written. tcpprobe_read also returns the wrong value if copy_to_user fails--it just passes on the return value of copy_to_user (number of bytes not copied), which makes a failure look like a success.

This is rather odd. The whole point of the platform_driver infrastructure is that the arch code only registers it if it's present and then the driver can match for it. So the right fix here is to move the platform_driver_register(&mac_mace_driver) into the mac arch setup code. A quick grep shows this is a quite common pattern for m68k drivers. --

[PATCH] socket, socketpair w/flags, accept4
If Alan's comments reflect the general opinion this patch should have all the changes. No new sock_map_fd_flags function and there is a helper function to convert socket flags into file flags. The new accept syscall is also in. It uses the same SOCK_CLOEXEC flags. I think everything else is confusing. This is an aspect where new socket/socketpair syscalls would be better. The code changes are really minimal. And don't get too hung up on the internal name of the syscall. I think accept4 is ...

Now I have connected 2 hosts directly, and evaluate the each throughput. Then all the results of UDP, TCP and XTP are the same and 94Mbps. (My netwrok is 100Base/TX). In this case round-trip time between 2 hosts is less than 0.1ms because they are directly connected. But my previouse case, round-trip time between 2 hosts are 4ms.

I wonder why RFC3542 forbids the contentious case. Is it a security consideration, that userland should not be allowed to create bogus ICMPv6 packets (IPV6_CHECKSUM can be set after dropping root after opening a raw socket, right?), or is it just some random IETF folklore ?? I'd note that my ndisc6 package does call setsockopt(SOL_IPV6, ICMPV6_CHECKSUM). Fortunately, it does not check for error values, so I don't really care if this is changed. -- Rémi Denis-Courmont [ message continues ]

Re: XTP for 2.6.25
My motivation to implement XTP for Linux kernel is that XTP can be better protocol than TCP in broad-band network, because XTP is free from BD power limitation by separation of rate and flow control. As far as I know, Packeteer's SkyX is only the product that implements XTP. SkyX is mainly used for Satellite network which delay is too long, but nowadays SkyX is used for broad-band network because XTP is of great advantege to network delay in broad-band network.

This touches a lot less code and I think comes out a lot smaller. Method is to translate to padded version on the user stack, make the call, and translate back (in the MS...
