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. It should therefore only applied to the upcoming 0.3 branch.

First thing: it doesn't compile here :( (UML), but I am quite unsure if this is a UML problem like many other things or a bigger problem.... it seems that it is uml specific as ATOMIC64_INIT and other thingss are defined, but the implementation of specific functions are missing... but this is not the first time such thing happens with uml. Maybe someone with some time can check different openwrt builds.
For example other architecture seems to use the generic implementation of it: * arm * parisc * powerpc * sh
UML in contrast uses a x86 specific header for it, but doesn't compile the actual lib/atomic64_32.c file
I will check if this is maybe gone with a never version of linux (still running 2.6.32 in my uml), but the rest looks fine to me.
By the way, on which platforms have you checked it? I've just noticed another problem with copied skbs which prevents the discovery of other nodes - not specific to that commit. I haven't finished the debugging of that problem and will change the wireshark dissector before doing that.
Best regards, Sven
Hello Sven,
thank you for your review. I've compiled and tested it in my openwrt qemu build environment, which is built on linux 2.6.31.1.
I have not checked it on any other platforms so far.

I think Sven got a point here. It seems that for atomic64_t to work one needs a CPU which supports 64Bit operations otherwise the linux kernel will use its generic implementation. Apparently it uses an array of 16 spinlocks to provide this functionality. I wonder whether this might be a lot of overhead for our needs. Furthermore the generic implementation was added recently (as far as I can tell 2.6.30 does not have it) which raises the question of backward compatibility.

This is not really true. There are optimized implementation for different cpus which don't have 64 bit atomic operations. But yes, the mentioned architectures doesn't seem to have it or I've just ignored their implementation.
Apparently it uses an array of 16 spinlocks to provide this functionality. I wonder whether this might be a lot of overhead for our needs.
Yes, it uses that array and decides which spinlock to use by hashing the address (probably address & 0xf) - it doesn't use all 16 hashes at the same time. It isn't really perfect when we have a lot of cpus and/or stuff which generates a lot of interrupts and uses atomic64_t. But I don't think we can avoid using spinlocks when we don't use platform optimized atomic*_t.
Furthermore the generic implementation was added recently (as far as I can tell 2.6.30 does not have it) which raises the question of backward compatibility.
Correct, forgot to check in which version this functionality came (so it is not Simon's fault, but mine). The basic problem why it was decided that it is needed to use atomic64_t was that until 2.6.3 atomic_t only provided 24-bit useful bits. This would result in in big caps while checking the seqno (problems for restart detection or other things).
The documentation still states that we can only hope for 24 useful bits in atomic_read. So I would guess that it is maybe the best idea to ask the kernel developers if the statenments in arch/mn10300/include/asm/atomic.h and include/asm-generic/atomic.h are obsolete and 32 useful bits are guaranteed after 2.6.3. Otherwise we have to choose between backward compatibility, spinlock overhead or a magical third option.

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.
As it seems these comments were obsolete in the kernel and the code documentation will be changed in an upcoming kernel version. Patches on the lkml were already acked by different arch developers.
As result we can use atomic_t as datatype with a 32 bit range since 2.6.3. I would like to promote the patch version with atomic_t instead of atomic64_t for 32 bit seqno. Marek already declared that he would prefer the version with atomic_t. Maybe you can check too if you can ack this change.
Best regards, Sven
