2010-04-22rps: immediate send IPI in process_backlog()Eric Dumazet
If some skb are queued to our backlog, we are delaying IPI sending at the end of net_rx_action(), increasing latencies. This defeats the queueing, since we want to quickly dispatch packets to the pool of worker cpus, then eventually deeply process our packets. It's better to send IPI before processing our packets in upper layers, from process_backlog(). Change the _and_disable_irq suffix to _and_enable_irq(), since we enable local irq in net_rps_action(), sorry for the confusion.

2010-04-21net: ipv6 bind to device issueJiri Olsa
The issue raises when having 2 NICs both assigned the same IPv6 global address. If a sender binds to a particular NIC (SO_BINDTODEVICE), the outgoing traffic is being sent via the first found. The bonded device is thus not taken into an account during the routing. From the ip6_route_output function: If the binding address is multicast, linklocal or loopback, the RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE bit is set, but not for global address. So binding global address will neglect SO_BINDTODEVICE-binded device, because the fib6_rule_lookup function path won't check for the flowi::oif field and take first route that fits.

2010-04-21ipv6: allow to send packet after receiving ICMPv6 Too Big message with MTU ↵Shan Wei
field less than IPV6_MIN_MTU According to RFC2460, PMTU is set to the IPv6 Minimum Link MTU (1280) and a fragment header should always be included after a node receiving Too Big message reporting PMTU is less than the IPv6 Minimum Link MTU. After receiving a ICMPv6 Too Big message reporting PMTU is less than the IPv6 Minimum Link MTU, sctp *can't* send any data/control chunk that total length including IPv6 head and IPv6 extend head is less than IPV6_MIN_MTU(1280 bytes). The failure occured in p6_fragment(), about reason see following(take SHUTDOWN chunk for example): sctp_packet_transmit (SHUTDOWN chunk, len=16 byte) |------sctp_v6_xmit (local_df=0) |------ip6_xmit |------ip6_output (dst_allfrag is ture) |------ip6_fragment In ip6_fragment(), for local_df=0, drops the the packet and returns EMSGSIZE. The patch fixes it with adding check length of skb->len. In this case, Ipv6 not to fragment upper protocol data, just only add a fragment header before it.

2010-04-21fasync: RCU and fine grained lockingEric Dumazet
kill_fasync() uses a central rwlock, candidate for RCU conversion, to avoid cache line ping pongs on SMP. fasync_remove_entry() and fasync_add_entry() can disable IRQS on a short section instead during whole list scan. Use a spinlock per fasync_struct to synchronize kill_fasync_rcu() and fasync_{remove|add}_entry(). This spinlock is IRQ safe, so sock_fasync() doesnt need its own implementation and can use fasync_helper(), to reduce code size and complexity. We can remove __kill_fasync() direct use in net/socket.c, and rename it to kill_fasync_rcu(). Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: Paul E.

Commit 6651ffc8e8bdd5fb4b7d1867c6cfebb4f309512c ("ipv6: Fix tcp_v6_send_response transport header setting.") fixed one half of why ipv6 tcp response checksums were invalid, but it's not the whole story. If we're going to use CHECKSUM_PARTIAL for these things (which we are since commit 2e8e18ef52e7dd1af0a3bd1f7d990a1d0b249586 "tcp: Set CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in tcp_init_nondata_skb"), we can't be setting buff->csum as we always have been here in tcp_v6_send_response.

Before commit e28cbf22933d0c0ccaf3c4c27a1a263b41f73859 ("improve sys_newuname() for compat architectures") 64-bit x86 had a private implementation of sys_uname which was just called sys_uname, which other architectures used for the old uname. Due to some merge issues with the uname refactoring patches we ended up calling the old uname version for both the old and new system call slots, which lead to the domainname filed never be set which caused failures with libnss_nis.

When IEEE80211_HW_CONNECTION_MONITOR is configured by the driver, starting of ieee80211_sta_conn_mon_timer should be prevented, as it is then not needed. This is currently partially the case. As it seems, when a probe-response is received from the AP the timer is still restarted, thus restarting the host based connection keep-alive mechanism. These probe-responses happen at least when scanning while associated. Fix this by preventing starting of the ieee80211_sta_conn_mon_timer in the ieee80211_rx_mgmt_probe_resp function.
