2010-09-15Phonet: resource routing backendRémi Denis-Courmont
When both destination device and object are nul, Phonet routes the packet according to the resource field. In fact, this is the most common pattern when sending Phonet "request" packets. In this case, the packet is delivered to whichever endpoint (socket) has registered the resource. This adds a new table so that Linux processes can register their Phonet sockets to Phonet resources, if they have adequate privileges. (Namespace support is not implemented at the moment.)

2010-09-15Phonet: remove dangling pipe if an endpoint is closed earlyRémi Denis-Courmont
Closing a pipe endpoint is not normally allowed by the Phonet pipe, other than as a side after-effect of removing the pipe between two endpoints. But there is no way to prevent Linux userspace processes from being killed or suffering from bugs, so this can still happen. We might as well forcefully close Phonet pipe endpoints then. The cellular modem supports only a few existing pipes at a time. So we really should not leak them. This change instructs the modem to destroy the pipe if either of the pipe's endpoint (Linux socket) is closed too early.

The isdn4linux driver uses the big kernel lock only to serialize access to a few fields in its own modem_info structure. The easiest replacement is a driver-wide mutex.

2010-09-15tg3: Fix read DMA FIFO overruns on recent devicesMatt Carlson
Earlier versions of tg3 devices had a problem where the read DMA FIFO could be overrun in certain edge conditions. The fix was to limit the number of rx BDs the hardware would fetch at a time. For later devices (5761, 5784 and later ASIC revs), there is a hardware fix that must be enabled to fix the same problem. This patch adds that hardware fix. There is a gap in the ASIC revision lineage where neither fix is applied. This is intentional as these ASIC revisions are not afflicted by the bug.

2010-09-15dccp ccid-3: Simplify and consolidate tx_parse_optionsGerrit Renker
This simplifies and consolidates the TX option-parsing code: 1. The Loss Intervals option is not currently used, so dead code related to this option is removed. I am aware of no plans to support the option, but if someone wants to implement it (e.g. for inter-op tests), it is better to start afresh than having to also update currently unused code. 2. The Loss Event and Receive Rate options have a lot of code in common (both are 32 bit, both have same length etc.), so this is consolidated. 3. The test against GSR is not necessary, because - on first loading CCID3, ccid_new() zeroes out all fields in the socket; - ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv() treats 0 and ~0U equivalently, due to pinv = opt_recv->ccid3or_loss_event_rate; if (pinv == ~0U || pinv == 0) hctx->p = 0; - as a result, the sequence number field is removed from opt_recv.

2010-09-15dccp ccid-3: remove buggy RTT-sampling history lookupGerrit Renker
This removes the RTT-sampling function tfrc_tx_hist_rtt(), since 1. it suffered from complex passing of return values (the return value both indicated successful lookup while the value doubled as RTT sample); 2. when for some odd reason the sample value equalled 0, this triggered a bug warning about "bogus Ack", due to the ambiguity of the return value; 3. on a passive host which has not sent anything the TX history is empty and thus will lead to unwanted "bogus Ack" warnings such as ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-28197148 ccid3_hc_tx_packet_recv: server(e7b7d518): DATAACK with bogus ACK-26641606. The fix is to replace the implicit encoding by performing the steps manually. Furthermore, the "bogus Ack" warning has been removed, since it can actually be triggered due to several reasons (network reordering, old packet, (3) above), hence it is not very useful.

2010-09-15dccp ccid-3: A lower bound for the inter-packet scheduling algorithmGerrit Renker
This fixes a subtle bug in the calculation of the inter-packet gap and shows that t_delta, as it is currently used, is not needed. The algorithm from RFC 5348, 8.3 below continually computes a send time t_nom, which is initialised with the current time t_now; t_gran = 1E6 / HZ specifies the scheduling granularity, s the packet size, and X the sending rate: t_distance = t_nom - t_now; // in microseconds t_delta = min(t_ipi, t_gran) / 2; // `delta' parameter in microseconds if (t_distance >= t_delta) { reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds; } else { t_ipi = s / X; // inter-packet interval in usec t_nom += t_ipi; // compute the next send time send packet now; } Problem: -------- Rescheduling requires a conversion into milliseconds (sk_reset_timer()). The highest jiffy resolution with HZ=1000 is 1 millisecond, so using a higher granularity does not make much sense here. As a consequence, values of t_distance < 1000 are truncated to 0. This issue has so far been resolved by using instead if (t_distance >= t_delta + 1000) reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds; This is unnecessarily large, a lower bound is t_delta' = max(t_delta, 1000). And it implies a further simplification: a) when HZ >= 500, then t_delta <= t_gran/2 = 10^6/(2*HZ) <= 1000, so that t_delta' = MAX(1000, t_delta) = 1000 (constant value); b) when HZ < 500, then t_delta = 1/2*MIN(rtt, t_ipi, t_gran) <= t_gran/2, so that 1000 <= t_delta' <= t_gran/2. The maximum error of using a constant t_delta in (b) is less than half a jiffy. Fix: ---- The patch replaces t_delta with a constant, whose value depends on CONFIG_HZ, changing the above algorithm to: if (t_distance >= t_delta') reschedule after (t_distance / 1000) milliseconds; where t_delta' = 10^6/(2*HZ) if HZ < 500, and t_delta' = 1000 otherwise.
