From: Simon Wunderlich simon.wunderlich@s2003.tu-chemnitz.de
This patch changes the sequence number range from 8 or 16 bit to 32 bit. This should avoid problems with the sequence number sliding window algorithm which we had seen in the past for broadcast floods or malicious packet injections. We can not assure 100% security with this patch, but it is quite an improvement over the old 16 bit sequence numbers:
* expected window size can be increased (4096 -> 65536) * 64k packets in the right order would now be needed to cause a loop, which seems practically impossible.
Furthermore, a TTL field has been added to the broadcast packet type, just to make sure.
These changes required to increase the compatibility level once again.
Signed-off-by: Simon Wunderlich siwu@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de [sven.eckelmann@gmx.de: Change atomic64_* back to atomic_*] Signed-off-by: Sven Eckelmann sven.eckelmann@gmx.de --- Simon Wunderlich: These changes required to increase the compatibility level once again. It should therefore only applied to the upcoming 0.3 branch.
Sven Eckelmann: Please don't apply this patch unless we got a "save to assume 32 bit for atomic_t after linux 2.6.3" message from kernel maintainers.
