2010-06-22IPVS: one-packet schedulingNick Chalk
Allow one-packet scheduling for UDP connections. When the fwmark-based or normal virtual service is marked with '-o' or '--ops' options all connections are created only to schedule one packet. Useful to schedule UDP packets from same client port to different real servers. Recommended with RR or WRR schedulers (the connections are not visible with ipvsadm -L).

2010-06-20caif: Add debug connection type for CAIF.Sjur Braendeland
Added new CAIF protocol type CAIFPROTO_DEBUG for accessing CAIF debug on the ST Ericsson modems. There are two debug servers on the modem, one for radio related debug (CAIF_RADIO_DEBUG_SERVICE) and the other for communication/application related debug (CAIF_COM_DEBUG_SERVICE). The debug connection can contain trace debug printouts or interactive debug used for debugging and test. Debug connections can be of type STREAM or SEQPACKET.

2010-06-20firewire: cdev: fix ABI for FCP and address range mapping, add ↵Stefan Richter
fw_cdev_event_request2 The problem: A target-like userspace driver, e.g. AV/C target or SBP-2/3 target, needs to be able to act as responder and requester. In the latter role, it needs to send requests to nods from which it received requests. This is currently impossible because fw_cdev_event_request lacks information about sender node ID. Reported-by: Jay Fenlason <fenlason@redhat.com> Libffado + libraw1394 + firewire-core is currently unable to drive two or more audio devices on the same bus. Reported-by: Arnold Krille <arnold@arnoldarts.de> This is because libffado requires destination node ID of FCP requests and sender node ID of FCP responses to match. It even prohibits libffado from working with a bus on which libraw1394 opens a /dev/fw* as default ioctl device that does not correspond with the audio device. This is because libraw1394 does not receive the sender node ID from the kernel. Moreover, fw_cdev_event_request makes it impossible to tell unicast and broadcast write requests apart. The fix: Add a replacement of struct fw_cdev_event_request request, boringly called struct fw_cdev_event_request2. The new event will be sent to a userspace client instead of the old one if the client claims compatibility with <linux/firewire-cdev.h> ABI version 4 or later. libraw1394 needs to be extended to make use of the new event, in order to properly support libffado and other FCP or address range mapping users who require correct sender node IDs. Further notes: While we are at it, change back the range of possible values of fw_cdev_event_request.tcode to 0x0...0xb like in ABI version <= 3. The preceding change "firewire: expose extended tcode of incoming lock requests to (userspace) drivers" expanded it to 0x0...0x17 which could catch sloppily coded clients by surprise. The extended range of codes is only used in the new fw_cdev_event_request2.tcode. Jay and I also suggested an alternative approach to fix the ABI for incoming requests: Add an FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_REQUEST_INFO ioctl which can be called after reception of an fw_cdev_event_request, before issuing of the closing FW_CDEV_IOC_SEND_RESPONSE ioctl. The new ioctl would reveal the vital information about a request that fw_cdev_event_request lacks. Jay showed an implementation of this approach. The former event approach adds 27 LOC of rather trivial code to core-cdev.c, the ioctl approach 34 LOC, some of which is nontrivial. The ioctl approach would certainly also add more LOC to userspace programs which require the expanded information on inbound requests. This approach is probably only on the lighter-weight side in case of clients that want to be compatible with kernels that lack the new capability, like libraw1394. However, the code to be added to such libraw1394-like clients in case of the event approach is a straight- forward additional switch () case in its event handler.

2010-06-20firewire: cdev: freeze FW_CDEV_VERSION due to libraw1394 bugStefan Richter
libraw1394 v2.0.0...v2.0.5 takes FW_CDEV_VERSION from an externally installed header file and uses it to declare its own implementation level in FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_INFO. This is wrong; it should set the real version for which it was actually written. If we add features to the kernel ABI that require the kernel to check a client's implementation level, we can not trust the client version if it was set from FW_CDEV_VERSION. Hence freeze FW_CDEV_VERSION at the current value (no damage has been done yet), clearly document FW_CDEV_VERSION as a dummy version and what clients are expected to do with fw_cdev_get_info.version, and use a new defined constant (which is not placed into the exported header file) as kernel implementation level. Note, in order to check in client program source code which features are present in an externally installed linux/firewire-cdev.h, use preprocessor directives like #ifdef FW_CDEV_IOC_ALLOCATE_ISO_RESOURCE or #ifdef FW_CDEV_EVENT_ISO_RESOURCE_ALLOCATED instead of a check of FW_CDEV_VERSION.

2010-06-20firewire: remove an unused function argumentStefan Richter
void (*fw_address_callback_t)(..., int speed, ...) is the speed that a remote node chose to transmit a request to us. In case of split transactions, firewire-core will transmit the response at that speed. Upper layer drivers on the other hand (firewire-net, -sbp2, firedtv, and userspace drivers) cannot do anything useful with that speed datum, except log it for debug purposes. But data that is merely potentially (not even actually) used for debug purposes does not belong into the API. Signed-off-by: Stefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

2010-06-19firewire: replace get_features card driver hookStefan Richter
by feature variables in the fw_card struct. The hook appeared to be an unnecessary abstraction in the card driver interface. Cleaner would be to pass those feature flags as arguments to fw_card_initialize() or fw_card_add(), but the FairnessControl register is in the SCLK domain and may therefore not be accessible while Link Power Status is off, i.e. before the card->driver->enable call from fw_card_add().

2010-06-15net: NET_SKB_PAD should depend on L1_CACHE_BYTESEric Dumazet
In old kernels, NET_SKB_PAD was defined to 16. Then commit d6301d3dd1c2 (net: Increase default NET_SKB_PAD to 32), and commit 18e8c134f4e9 (net: Increase NET_SKB_PAD to 64 bytes) increased it to 64. While first patch was governed by network stack needs, second was more driven by performance issues on current hardware. Real intent was to align data on a cache line boundary. So use max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES) instead of 64, to be more generic. Remove microblaze and powerpc own NET_SKB_PAD definitions. Thanks to Alexander Duyck and David Miller for their comments.

This patch adds the helper netpoll_tx_running for use within ndo_start_xmit. It returns non-zero if ndo_start_xmit is being invoked by netpoll, and zero otherwise.

2010-06-15netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementationLuciano Coelho
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time. Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label> When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

2010-06-14lockdep: Add an in_workqueue_context() lockdep-based test functionPaul E. McKenney
Some recent uses of RCU make use of workqueues. In these uses, execution within the context of a specific workqueue takes the place of the usual RCU read-side primitives such as rcu_read_lock(), and flushing of workqueues takes the place of the usual RCU grace-period primitives. Checking for correct use of rcu_dereference() in such cases requires a test of whether the code is executing in the context of a particular workqueue. This commit adds an in_workqueue_context() function that provides this test. This new function is only defined when lockdep is enabled, which allows it to be used as the second argument of rcu_dereference_check(). Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2010-06-14tree/tiny rcu: Add debug RCU head objectsMathieu Desnoyers
Helps finding racy users of call_rcu(), which results in hangs because list entries are overwritten and/or skipped. Changelog since v4: - Bissectability is now OK - Now generate a WARN_ON_ONCE() for non-initialized rcu_head passed to call_rcu(). Statically initialized objects are detected with object_is_static(). - Rename rcu_head_init_on_stack to init_rcu_head_on_stack. - Remove init_rcu_head() completely. Changelog since v3: - Include comments from Lai Jiangshan This new patch version is based on the debugobjects with the newly introduced "active state" tracker. Non-initialized entries are all considered as "statically initialized". An activation fixup (triggered by call_rcu()) takes care of performing the debug object initialization without issuing any warning. Since we cannot increase the size of struct rcu_head, I don't see much room to put an identifier for statically initialized rcu_head structures. So for now, we have to live without "activation without explicit init" detection. But the main purpose of this debug option is to detect double-activations (double call_rcu() use of a rcu_head before the callback is executed), which is correctly addressed here. This also detects potential internal RCU callback corruption, which would cause the callbacks to be executed twice. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> CC: David S.

2010-06-10net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matchesJohn Fastabend
Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and is not one of the special pkts tested for in skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
