2008-05-20net: Fix call to ->change_rx_flags(dev, IFF_MULTICAST) in dev_change_flags()David Woodhouse
Am I just being particularly dim today, or can the call to dev->change_rx_flags(dev, IFF_MULTICAST) in dev_change_flags() never happen? We've just set dev->flags = flags & IFF_MULTICAST, effectively. So the condition '(dev->flags ^ flags) & IFF_MULTICAST' is _never_ going to be true. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-05-20ipsec: Use the correct ip_local_out functionHerbert Xu
Because the IPsec output function xfrm_output_resume does its own dst_output call it should always call __ip_local_output instead of ip_local_output as the latter may invoke dst_output directly. Otherwise the return values from nf_hook and dst_output may clash as they both use the value 1 but for different purposes. When that clash occurs this can cause a packet to be used after it has been freed which usually leads to a crash. Because the offending value is only returned from dst_output with qdiscs such as HTB, this bug is normally not visible. Thanks to Marco Berizzi for his perseverance in tracking this down.

2008-05-19ipv6: Register some net/ipv6/ core sysctls at read-only root.Pavel Emelyanov
There are some sysctls left to be switched to read-only, but they are all in ipv6, so complete with them. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-05-19inet: Register fragmentation some ctls at read-only root.Pavel Emelyanov
Parts of fragments-related sysctls are read-only, but this is done by cloning all the tables and dropping write-bits from mode. Do the same but with read-only root. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-05-19ipv6: In fragmentation code, handle error returned from register_pernet_subsys.Pavel Emelyanov
The error code is ignored now, but ipv6 is a module and one can be loaded under memory pressure, so the error may occur (in theory). Besides, I'm going to handle error returned from registering a read-only part of the table, so ignoring this one, while handing the other one would look strange. (However, this possibility of error is rather small, so I'm not sure whether this is a candidate for current net tree). Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-05-19inet: Rename fragmentation sysctl-related functions/variables.Pavel Emelyanov
The fragments sysctls also contains some, that are to be visible, but read-only in net namespaces. The naming in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c is - tables, that are to be registered in namespaces have a "ns" word in their names. So rename ones in ipv4/ip_fragment.c and ipv6/reassembly.c to fit this.

2008-05-19netns: Register net/core/ sysctls at read-only root.Pavel Emelyanov
Most of the net/core/xxx sysctls are read-only now, but this goal is achieved with excessive memory consumption in each namespace - the whole table is cloned and most of the entries in it are ~= 0222. Split it into two parts and register (the largest) one at the read-only root. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-05-19tipc: Cosmetic cleanup of topology service codeAllan Stephens
This patch contains a set of cosmetic changes to TIPC's network topology service subsystem, including: - updates to comments (including copyright dates) - re-ordering structure fields to group them more logically - removal of optional debugging code that is no longer required - minor changes to whitespace to conform to Linux coding conventions Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-05-19tipc: Consolidate subscriber & subscriber port referencesAllan Stephens
This patch modifies TIPC's network topology service so that it only requires a single reference table entry per subscriber connection, rather than two. This is achieved by letting the reference to the server port communicating with the subscriber act as the reference to the subscriber object itself. (Since the subscriber cannot exist without its port, and vice versa, this dual role for the reference is perfectly natural.) This consolidation reduces the size of the reference table by 50% in the default configuration. Signed-off-by: Allan Stephens <allan.stephens@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-05-19tipc: Fix bug in topology server byte swapping routineAllan Stephens
This patch fixes TIPC's topology server so that it does byte swapping correctly when endianness conversion is required. (Note: This bug only impacted an application if it issues a subscription request to a topology server on another node, rather than the server on it's own node; since the topology server is normally not accessible by off-node applications, most TIPC applications were not impacted by the bug.)

2008-05-19tipc: Add support for customized subscription endiannessAllan Stephens

2008-05-19svcrdma: Verify read-list fits within RPCSVC_MAXPAGESTom Tucker
A RDMA read-list cannot contain more elements than RPCSVC_MAXPAGES or it will overflow the DTO context. Verify this when processing the protocol header. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Change svc_rdma_send_error return type to voidTom Tucker
The svc_rdma_send_error function is called when an RPCRDMA protocol error is detected. This function attempts to post an error reply message. Since an error posting to a transport in error is ignored, change the return type to void. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Copy transport address and arm CQ before calling rdma_acceptTom Tucker
This race was found by inspection. Messages can be received from the peer immediately following the rdma_accept call, however, the CQ have not yet been armed and the transport address has not yet been set. Set the transport address in the connect request handler and arm the CQ prior to calling rdma_accept. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Set rqstp transport address in rdma_read_complete functionTom Tucker
The rdma_read_complete function needs to copy the rqstp transport address from the transport. Failure to do so can result in using the wrong authentication method for the RPC or bug checking if the rqstp address is not valid. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Use ib verbs version of dma_unmapTom Tucker
Use the ib_verbs version of the dma_unmap service in the svc_rdma_put_context function. This should support providers using software rdma. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Cleanup queued, but unprocessed I/O in svc_rdma_freeTom Tucker

2008-05-19svcrdma: Move the QP and cm_id destruction to svc_rdma_freeTom Tucker
Move the destruction of the QP and CM_ID to the free path so that the QP cleanup code doesn't race with the dto_tasklet handling flushed WR. The QP reference is not needed because we now have a reference for every WR. Also add a guard in the SQ and RQ completion handlers to ignore calls generated by some providers when the QP is destroyed. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Add reference for each SQ/RQ WRTom Tucker
Add a reference on the transport for every outstanding WR. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Move destroy to kernel threadTom Tucker
Some providers may wait while destroying adapter resources. Since it is possible that the last reference is put on the dto_tasklet, the actual destroy must be scheduled as a work item. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Shrink scope of spinlock on RQ CQTom Tucker
The rq_cq_reap function is only called from the dto_tasklet. The only resource shared with other threads is the sc_rq_dto_q. Move the spin lock to protect only this list. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Use standard Linux lists for context cacheTom Tucker
Replace the one-off linked list implementation used to implement the context cache with the standard Linux list_head lists. Add a context counter to catch resource leaks. A WARN_ON will be added later to ensure that we've freed all contexts. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Simplify RDMA_READ deferral buffer managementTom Tucker
An NFS_WRITE requires a set of RDMA_READ requests to fetch the write data from the client. There are two principal pieces of data that need to be tracked: the list of pages that comprise the completed RPC and the SGE of dma mapped pages to refer to this list of pages. Previously this whole bit was managed as a linked list of contexts with the context containing the page list buried in this list. This patch simplifies this processing by not keeping a linked list, but rather only a pionter from the last submitted RDMA_READ's context to the context that maps the set of pages that describe the RPC. This significantly simplifies this code path. SGE contexts are cleaned up inline in the DTO path instead of at read completion time. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Remove unused READ_DONE context flags bitTom Tucker
The RDMACTXT_F_READ_DONE bit is not longer used. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Return error from rdma_read_xdr so caller knows to free contextTom Tucker
The rdma_read_xdr function did not discriminate between no read-list and an error posting the read-list. This results in a leak of a page if there is an error posting the read-list. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Fix error handling during listening endpoint creationTom Tucker
A listening endpoint isn't known to the generic transport switch until the svc_create_xprt function returns without error. Calling svc_xprt_put within the xpo_create function causes the module reference count to be erroneously decremented. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Free context on post_recv error in send_replyTom Tucker
If an error is encountered trying to post a recv buffer in send_reply, free the passed in context. Return an error to the caller so it is aware that the request was not posted. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Free context on ib_post_recv errorTom Tucker
If there is an error posting the recv WR to the RQ, free the context associated with the WR. This would leak a context when asynchronous errors occurred on the transport while conccurent threads were processing their RPC. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Add put of connection ESTABLISHED reference in rdma_cma_handlerTom Tucker
The svcrdma transport takes a reference when it gets the ESTABLISHED event from the provider. This reference is supposed to be removed when the DISCONNECT event is received, however, the call to svc_xprt_put was missing in the switch statement. This results in the memory associated with the transport never being freed. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Fix return value in svc_rdma_sendTom Tucker
Fix the return value on close to -ENOTCONN so caller knows to free context. Also if a thread is waiting for free SQ space, check for close when waking to avoid posting WR to a closing transport. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Fix race with dto_tasklet in svc_rdma_sendTom Tucker
The svc_rdma_send function will attempt to reap SQ WR to make room for a new request if it finds the SQ full. This function races with the dto_tasklet that also reaps SQ WR. To avoid polling and arming the CQ unnecessarily move the test_and_clear_bit of the RDMAXPRT_SQ_PENDING flag and arming of the CQ to the sq_cq_reap function. Refactor the rq_cq_reap function to match sq_cq_reap so that the code is easier to follow. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>
2008-05-19svcrdma: Simplify receive buffer postingTom Tucker
The svcrdma transport provider currently allocates receive buffers to the RQ through the xpo_release_rqst method. This approach is overly complicated since it means that the rqstp rq_xprt_ctxt has to be selectively set based on whether the RPC is going to be processed immediately or deferred. Instead, just post the receive buffer when we are certain that we are replying in the send_reply function. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com>

2008-05-19rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.hFranck Bui-Huu
Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h. This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this list.h without creating some circular dependencies. For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference() without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but aren't probably because of this. Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to many changes/troubles.

This patch restores ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() to use RTNL lock, and provides the non-RTNL version under a new name: ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic() So far only rt2x00 uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(), and those drivers require the RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces().
