2012-04-14tcp: bind() use stronger condition for bind_conflictAlex Copot
We must try harder to get unique (addr, port) pairs when doing port autoselection for sockets with SO_REUSEADDR option set. We achieve this by adding a relaxation parameter to inet_csk_bind_conflict. When 'relax' parameter is off we return a conflict whenever the current searched pair (addr, port) is not unique. This tries to address the problems reported in patch: 8d238b25b1ec22a73b1c2206f111df2faaff8285 Revert "tcp: bind() fix when many ports are bound" Tests where ran for creating and binding(0) many sockets on 100 IPs. The results are, on average: * 60000 sockets, 600 ports / IP: * 0.210 s, 620 (IP, port) duplicates without patch * 0.219 s, no duplicates with patch * 100000 sockets, 1000 ports / IP: * 0.371 s, 1720 duplicates without patch * 0.373 s, no duplicates with patch * 200000 sockets, 2000 ports / IP: * 0.766 s, 6900 duplicates without patch * 0.768 s, no duplicates with patch * 500000 sockets, 5000 ports / IP: * 2.227 s, 41500 duplicates without patch * 2.284 s, no duplicates with patch Signed-off-by: Alex Copot <alex.mihai.c@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Baluta <dbaluta@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-13udp: intoduce udp_encap_needed static_keyEric Dumazet
Most machines dont use UDP encapsulation (L2TP) Adds a static_key so that udp_queue_rcv_skb() doesnt have to perform a test if L2TP never setup the encap_rcv on a socket. Idea of this patch came after Simon Horman proposal to add a hook on TCP as well. If static_key is not yet enabled, the fast path does a single JMP . When static_key is enabled, JMP destination is patched to reach the real encap_type/encap_rcv logic, possibly adding cache misses.

The comparison operators were backwards in both garp_attr_lookup and garp_attr_create, so the entire GID rbtree was in reverse order.

2012-04-13pppoatm: Fix excessive queue bloatDavid Woodhouse
We discovered that PPPoATM has an excessively deep transmit queue. A queue the size of the default socket send buffer (wmem_default) is maintained between the PPP generic core and the ATM device. Fix it to queue a maximum of *two* packets. The one the ATM device is currently working on, and one more for the ATM driver to process immediately in its TX done interrupt handler. The PPP core is designed to feed packets to the channel with minimal latency, so that really ought to be enough to keep the ATM device busy. While we're at it, fix the fact that we were triggering the wakeup tasklet on *every* pppoatm_pop() call. The comment saying "this is inefficient, but doing it right is too hard" turns out to be overly pessimistic... I think :) On machines like the Traverse Geos, with a slow Geode CPU and two high-speed ADSL2+ interfaces, there were reports of extremely high CPU usage which could partly be attributed to the extra wakeups. (The wakeup handling could actually be made a whole lot easier if we stop checking sk->sk_sndbuf altogether. Given that we now only queue *two* packets ever, one wonders what the point is. As it is, you could already deadlock the thing by setting the sk_sndbuf to a value lower than the MTU of the device, and it'd just block for ever.)

This was allowing there to be cases when phonenet was not initialized and the phonet net_generic was not set for a network namespace when network device events were being reported on the netdevice_notifier for a network namespace leading to the oops above. 2) phonet_exit_net was implementing a confusing and special case of handling all network devices from going away that it was hard to see was correct, and would only occur when the phonet module was removed. Now that unregister_netdevice_notifier has been modified to synthesize unregistration events for the network devices that are extant when called this confusing special case in phonet_exit_net is no longer needed.

This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.

2012-04-11mac80211: add improved HW queue controlJohannes Berg
mac80211 currently only supports one hardware queue per AC. This is already problematic for off-channel uses since if we go off channel while the BE queue is full and then try to send an off-channel frame the frame will never go out. This will become worse when we support multi-channel since then a queue on one channel might be full, but we have to stop the software queue for all channels. That is obviously not desirable. To address this problem allow drivers to register more hardware queues, and allow them to map them to virtual interfaces. When they stop a hardware queue the corresponding AC software queues on the correct interfaces will be stopped as well. Additionally, there's an off-channel queue to solve that problem and a per-interface after-DTIM beacon queue. This allows drivers to manage software queues closer to how the hardware works. Currently, there's a limit of 16 hardware queues. This may or may not be sufficient, we can adjust it as needed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2012-04-11mac80211: add explicit monitor interface if neededJohannes Berg
The queue mapping redesign that I'm planning to do will break pure injection unless we handle monitor interfaces explicitly. One possible option would be to have the driver tell mac80211 about monitor mode queues etc., but that would duplicate the API since we already need to have queue assignments handled per virtual interface. So in order to solve this, have a virtual monitor interface that is added whenever all active vifs are monitors. We could also use the state of one of the monitor interfaces, but managing that would be complicated, so allocate separate state.

2012-04-11tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx pathEric Dumazet
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non SG capable hardware. After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices) Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048) Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb (IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1 allocations. This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit. This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or any layer needing some tailroom) avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged. Reported-by: Marc MERLIN <marc@merlins.org> Tested-by: Marc MERLIN <marc@merlins.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-11net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroomEric Dumazet
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non SG capable hardware. Turns out part of the problem comes from pskb_expand_head() not using ksize() to get exact head size given by kmalloc(). Doing the same thing than __alloc_skb() allows more tailroom in skb and can prevent future reallocations. As a bonus, struct skb_shared_info becomes cache line aligned.

2012-04-11bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leavesHerbert Xu
As it stands the bridge IGMP snooping system will respond to group leave messages with queries for remaining membership. This is both unnecessary and undesirable. First of all any multicast routers present should be doing this rather than us. What's more the queries that we send may end up upsetting other multicast snooping swithces in the system that are buggy. In fact, we can simply remove the code that send these queries because the existing membership expiry mechanism doesn't rely on them anyway. So this patch simply removes all code associated with group queries in response to group leave messages. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

backbone gateways may be part of the same LAN, but participate in different meshes. With this patch, backbone gateways form groups by applying the groupid of another backbone gateway if it is higher. After forming the group, they only accept messages from backbone gateways of the same group.
