2012-04-13ipv6: fix problem with expired dst cacheGao feng
If the ipv6 dst cache which copy from the dst generated by ICMPV6 RA packet. this dst cache will not check expire because it has no RTF_EXPIRES flag. So this dst cache will always be used until the dst gc run. Change the struct dst_entry,add a union contains new pointer from and expires. When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort. Add some functions to operate the RTF_EXPIRES flag and expires(from) together. and change the code to use these new adding functions. Changes from v5: modify ip6_route_add and ndisc_router_discovery to use new adding functions. Only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort.

Traffic class mapping for different packet types: - control: TC_PRIO_CONTROL; - flow control: TC_PRIO_CONTROL; - at: TC_PRIO_CONTROL; - rfm: TC_PRIO_INTERACTIVE_BULK; - other sockets: equals to socket's TC; - network data: no change.

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.

Added strict checking of PadN, as PadN can be used to increase header size and thus push the protocol header into the 2nd fragment. PadN is used to align the options within the Hop-by-Hop or Destination Options header to 64-bit boundaries. The maximum valid size is thus 7 bytes.

This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available. Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

However, the device_set_wakeup_enable() API is intended to be called when the wakeup is enabled, not later when needed.

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.
