2010-04-27net: sk_add_backlog() take rmem_alloc into accountEric Dumazet
Current socket backlog limit is not enough to really stop DDOS attacks, because user thread spend many time to process a full backlog each round, and user might crazy spin on socket lock. We should add backlog size and receive_queue size (aka rmem_alloc) to pace writers, and let user run without being slow down too much. Introduce a sk_rcvqueues_full() helper, to avoid taking socket lock in stress situations. Under huge stress from a multiqueue/RPS enabled NIC, a single flow udp receiver can now process ~200.000 pps (instead of ~100 pps before the patch) on a 8 core machine.

2010-04-27mac80211: fix rts threshold checkShanyu Zhao
Currently whenever rts thresold is set, every packet will use RTS protection no matter its size exceeds the threshold or not. This is due to a bug in the rts threshold check. if (len > tx->local->hw.wiphy->rts_threshold) { txrc.rts = rts = true; } Basically it is comparing an int (len) and a u32 (rts_threshold), and the variable len is assigned as: len = min_t(int, tx->skb->len + FCS_LEN, tx->local->hw.wiphy->frag_threshold); However, when frag_threshold is "-1", len is always "-1", which is 0xffffffff therefore rts is always set to true.

RFC 1122 says the following: ... Keep-alive packets MUST only be sent when no data or acknowledgement packets have been received for the connection within an interval. ...

2010-04-26mac80211: Fix sta->last_tx_rate setting with no-op rate control devicesJuuso Oikarinen
The sta->last_tx_rate is traditionally updated just before transmitting a frame based on information from the rate control algorithm. However, for hardware drivers with IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL this is not performed, as the rate control algorithm is not executed, and because the used rate is not known before the frame has actually been transmitted. This causes atleast a fixed 1Mb/s to be reported to user space. A few other instances of code also rely on this information. Fix this by setting the sta->last_tx_rate in tx_status handling. There, look for last rates entry set by the driver, and use that as value for sta->last_tx_rate. Signed-off-by: Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-04-26net: ipmr: add support for dumping routing tables over netlinkPatrick McHardy
The ipmr /proc interface (ip_mr_cache) can't be extended to dump routes from any tables but the main table in a backwards compatible fashion since the output format ends in a variable amount of output interfaces.

2010-04-26net: rtnetlink: decouple rtnetlink address families from real address familiesPatrick McHardy
Decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families in socket.h to be able to add rtnetlink interfaces to code that is not a real address family without increasing AF_MAX/NPROTO. This will be used to add support for multicast route dumping from all tables as the proc interface can't be extended to support anything but the main table without breaking compatibility. This partialy undoes the patch to introduce independant families for routing rules and converts ipmr routing rules to a new rtnetlink family. Similar to that patch, values up to 127 are reserved for real address families, values above that may be used arbitrarily. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
