134e63756d genetlink: make netns aware
This makes generic netlink network namespace aware. No
generic netlink families except for the controller family
are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by
one and then set the family->netnsok member to true.

A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to
allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace,
for example when it applies to an object that lives in
that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns()
to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects
that do not have an associated netns).

The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast
the message in just init_net, which is currently correct
for all generic netlink families since they only work in
init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all
net namespaces because they do not care about the netns
at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of
the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or
genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns
aware in some way.

After this patch families can easily decide whether or
not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many
genl families us it for objects not related to networking
and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but
that will have to be done on a per family basis.

Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart
problem where network namespaces could be used, genl
families and multicast groups are numbered globally and
I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it
must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces
for those families that do not care about netns.

17edde5209 netns: Remove net_alive
It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem
that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought
it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets
while there were still packets in the network namespace.

Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves
this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee
that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided
by net_alive in netif_receive_skb.  So remove net_alive allowing
packet reception run a little faster.

Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup
is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have
a chance of figuring it out.

8f424b5f32 net: Introduce read_pnet() and write_pnet() helpers
This patch introduces two helpers that deal with reading and writing
struct net pointers in various network structures.

Their implementation depends on CONFIG_NET_NS

For symmetry, both functions work with "struct net **pnet".

Their usage should reduce the number of #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS,
without adding many helpers for each network structure
that hold a "struct net *pointer"

485ac57bc1 netns: add register_pernet_gen_subsys/unregister_pernet_gen_subsys
netns ops which are registered with register_pernet_gen_device() are
shutdown strictly before those which are registered with
register_pernet_subsys(). Sometimes this leads to opposite (read: buggy)
shutdown ordering between two modules.

Add register_pernet_gen_subsys()/unregister_pernet_gen_subsys() for modules
which aren't elite enough for entry in struct net, and which can't use
register_pernet_gen_device(). PPTP conntracking module is such one.

Receiving packets while we are cleaning up a network namespace is a
racy proposition. It is possible when the packet arrives that we have
removed some but not all of the state we need to fully process it.  We
have the choice of either playing wack-a-mole with the cleanup routines
or simply dropping packets when we don't have a network namespace to
handle them.

Since the check looks inexpensive in netif_receive_skb let's just
drop the incoming packets.

dec827d174 [NETNS]: The generic per-net pointers.
Add the elastic array of void * pointer to the struct net.
The access rules are simple:

 1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get
    the id of your private pointer
 2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the
    struct net (most preferably this should be done in the
    ->init callback of the ops registered)
 3. do not store any private reference on the net_generic array;
 4. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
 5. use the net_generic() to get the pointer.

When adding a new pointer, I copy the old array, replace it
with a new one and schedule the old for kfree after an RCU
grace period.

Since the net_generic explores the net->gen array inside rcu
read section and once set the net->gen->ptr[x] pointer never 
changes, this grants us a safe access to generic pointers.

Quoting Paul: "... RCU is protecting -only- the net_generic 
structure that net_generic() is traversing, and the [pointer]
returned by net_generic() is protected by a reference counter 
in the upper-level struct net."

c93cf61fd1 [NETNS]: The net-subsys IDs generator.
To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to address
them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs generator for pernet
subsystems.

Addressing questions about potential checkpoint/restart problems: 
these IDs are "lite-offsets" within the net structure and are by no 
means supposed to be exported to the userspace.

Since it will be used in the nearest future by devices only (tun,
vlan, tunnels, bridge, etc), I make it resemble the functionality
of register_pernet_device().

The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the init
callback to make this id available in this callback.

e9720acd72 [NET]: Make /proc/net a symlink on /proc/self/net (v3)
Current /proc/net is done with so called "shadows", but current
implementation is broken and has little chances to get fixed.

The problem is that dentries subtree of /proc/net directory has
fancy revalidation rules to make processes living in different
net namespaces see different entries in /proc/net subtree, but
currently, tasks see in the /proc/net subdir the contents of any
other namespace, depending on who opened the file first.

The proposed fix is to turn /proc/net into a symlink, which points
to /proc/self/net, which in turn shows what previously was in
/proc/net - the network-related info, from the net namespace the
appropriate task lives in.

# ls -l /proc/net
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 8 Mar  5 15:17 /proc/net -> self/net

In other words - this behaves like /proc/mounts, but unlike
"mounts", "net" is not a file, but a directory.

Changes from v2:
* Fixed discrepancy of /proc/net nlink count and selinux labeling
  screwup pointed out by Stephen.

  To get the correct nlink count the ->getattr callback for /proc/net
  is overridden to read one from the net->proc_net entry.

  To make selinux still work the net->proc_net entry is initialized
  properly, i.e. with the "net" name and the proc_net parent.

Selinux fixes are

a0a53c8ba9 [NETNS]: struct net content re-work (v3)
Recently David Miller and Herbert Xu pointed out that struct net becomes
overbloated and un-maintainable. There are two solutions:
- provide a pointer to a network subsystem definition from struct net.
  This costs an additional dereferrence
- place sub-system definition into the structure itself. This will speedup
  run-time access at the cost of recompilation time

The second approach looks better for us. Other sub-systems will follow.

024626e36d [NET] sysctl: make the sys.net.core sysctls per-namespace
Making them per-namespace is required for the following
two reasons:

 First, some ctl values have a per-namespace meaning.
 Second, making them writable from the sub-namespace
 is an isolation hole.

So I introduce the pernet operations to create these
tables. For init_net I use the existing statically
declared tables, for sub-namespace they are duplicated
and the write bits are removed from the mode.

95bdfccb2b [NET]: Implement the per network namespace sysctl infrastructure
The user interface is: register_net_sysctl_table and
unregister_net_sysctl_table.  Very much like the current
interface except there is a network namespace parameter.

With this any sysctl registered with register_net_sysctl_table
will only show up to tasks in the same network namespace.

All other sysctls continue to be globally visible.

2b008b0a8e [NET]: Marking struct pernet_operations __net_initdata was inappropriate
It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section.
We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys.
Which doesn't happen until module unload.

So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding
  it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked
  list and does horrible things for linked insert.

So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded
for modules.

4665079cbb [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=n
With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section,
thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before.
Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace
creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns
stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot.

Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls
are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be
merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to
use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes"
for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS
is not set to save more space in memory.

The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section,
as noticed by David, since the init section will have
references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost
checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace
never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I
introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already
done with the __init_refok.

f4618d39a3 [NETNS]: Simplify the network namespace list locking rules.
Denis V. Lunev <den@sw.ru> noticed that the locking rules
for the network namespace list are over complicated and broken.

In particular the current register_netdev_notifier currently
does not take any lock making the for_each_net iteration racy
with network namespace creation and destruction. Oops.

The fact that we need to use for_each_net in rtnl_unlock() when
the rtnetlink support becomes per network namespace makes designing
the proper locking tricky.  In addition we need to be able to call
rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() when we have the net_mutex held.

After thinking about it and looking at the alternatives carefully
it looks like the simplest and most maintainable solution is
to remove net_list_mutex altogether, and to use the rtnl_mutex instead.

This patch modifies all users the loopback_dev so they

9dd776b6d7 [NET]: Add network namespace clone & unshare support.
This patch allows you to create a new network namespace
using sys_clone, or sys_unshare.

As the network namespace is still experimental and under development
clone and unshare support is only made available when CONFIG_NET_NS is
selected at compile time.

As this patch introduces network namespace support into code paths
that exist when the CONFIG_NET is not selected there are a few
additions made to net_namespace.h to allow a few more functions
to be used when the networking stack is not compiled in.

077130c0cf [NET]: Fix race when opening a proc file while a network namespace is exiting.
The problem:  proc_net files remember which network namespace the are
against but do not remember hold a reference count (as that would pin
the network namespace).   So we currently have a small window where
the reference count on a network namespace may be incremented when opening
a /proc file when it has already gone to zero.

To fix this introduce maybe_get_net and get_proc_net.

maybe_get_net increments the network namespace reference count only if it is
greater then zero, ensuring we don't increment a reference count after it
has gone to zero.

get_proc_net handles all of the magic to go from a proc inode to the network
namespace instance and call maybe_get_net on it.

PROC_NET the old accessor is removed so that we don't get confused and use
the wrong helper function.

Then I fix up the callers to use get_proc_net and handle the case case
where get_proc_net returns NULL.  In that case I return -ENXIO because
effectively the network namespace has already gone away so the files
we are trying to access don't exist anymore.

881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

5f256becd8 [NET]: Basic network namespace infrastructure.
This is the basic infrastructure needed to support network
namespaces.  This infrastructure is:
- Registration functions to support initializing per network
  namespace data when a network namespaces is created or destroyed.

- struct net.  The network namespace data structure.
  This structure will grow as variables are made per network
  namespace but this is the minimal starting point.

- Functions to grab a reference to the network namespace.
  I provide both get/put functions that keep a network namespace
  from being freed.  And hold/release functions serve as weak references
  and will warn if their count is not zero when the data structure
  is freed.  Useful for dealing with more complicated data structures
  like the ipv4 route cache.

- A list of all of the network namespaces so we can iterate over them.

- A slab for the network namespace data structure allowing leaks
  to be spotted.
