2011-10-12net-netlink: Add a new attribute to expose TOS values via netlinkMurali Raja
This patch exposes the tos value for the TCP sockets when the TOS flag is requested in the ext_flags for the inet_diag request. This would mainly be used to expose TOS values for both for TCP and UDP sockets. Currently it is supported for TCP. When netlink support for UDP would be added the support to expose the TOS values would alse be done. For IPV4 tos value is exposed and for IPV6 tclass value is exposed.

2011-10-11mac80211: dont orphan TX skbJohannes Berg
This was another workaround for truesize "bugs". The reason we did this was that when we orphaned the SKB it wouldn't be truesize-checked later. Now that the check is gone (and we just charge the former smaller size to the socket) there's no longer a reason to orphan the skb here. Keep the skb charged to the socket until it is really freed (or orphaned in TX status). This helps flow control and allows us to get at the socket later for other purposes.

2011-10-11mac80211: dont adjust truesizeJohannes Berg
There's no need to adjust truesize. The history of this was that we always ran into skb_truesize_bug (via skb_truesize_check) which has since been removed in commit 92a0acce186cd. skb_truesize_check() checked that truesize was bigger or equal to the actual allocation, which would trigger in mac80211 due to header adding. The check no longer exists and we shouldn't be messing with the truesize anwyay. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-10-11mac80211: parse radiotap header earlierJohannes Berg
We can now move the radiotap header parsing into ieee80211_monitor_start_xmit(). This moves it out of the hotpath, and also helps the code since now the radiotap header will no longer be present in ieee80211_xmit() etc. which is easier to understand.

2011-10-11mac80211: move fragment flag to info flag as dont-fragmentJohannes Berg

2011-10-06Bluetooth: hidp: Stop I/O on shutdownDavid Herrmann
Current hidp driver purges the in/out queue on HID shutdown, but does not prevent further I/O. If a driver uses hidp_output_raw_report or hidp_get_raw_report during shutdown, the driver hangs for 5 or 10 seconds per call until it gets a timeout. That is, if the output queue of an HID driver has 10 messages pending, it will take 50s until hid_destroy_device() will return. The hidp_session_sem semaphore is held during shutdown so no other HID device may be added/removed during this time. This patch makes hidp_output_raw_report and hidp_get_raw_report fail if session->terminate is true. Also hidp_session will wakeup all current calls to these functions to cancel the current operations. We already purge the current I/O queues on hidp_stop(), so this data loss does not change the behaviour of the HID drivers.

2011-10-06bridge: allow forwarding some link local framesstephen hemminger
This is based on an earlier patch by Nick Carter with comments by David Lamparter but with some refinements. Thanks for their patience this is a confusing area with overlap of standards, user requirements, and compatibility with earlier releases. It adds a new sysfs attribute /sys/class/net/brX/bridge/group_fwd_mask that controls forwarding of frames with address of: 01-80-C2-00-00-0X The default setting has no forwarding to retain compatibility. One change from earlier releases is that forwarding of group addresses is not dependent on STP being enabled or disabled. This choice was made based on interpretation of tie 802.1 standards. I expect complaints will arise because of this, but better to follow the standard than continue acting incorrectly by default. The filtering mask is writeable, but only values that don't forward known control frames are allowed. It intentionally blocks attempts to filter control protocols. For example: writing a 8 allows forwarding 802.1X PAE addresses which is the most common request.

This resolves a regression seen by some users of bridging. Some users use the bridge like a dummy device. They expect to be able to put an IPv6 address on the device with no ports attached.

2011-10-04tcp: properly update lost_cnt_hint during shiftingYan, Zheng
lost_skb_hint is used by tcp_mark_head_lost() to mark the first unhandled skb. lost_cnt_hint is the number of packets or sacked packets before the lost_skb_hint; When shifting a skb that is before the lost_skb_hint, if tcp_is_fack() is ture, the skb has already been counted in the lost_cnt_hint; if tcp_is_fack() is false, tcp_sacktag_one() will increase the lost_cnt_hint. So tcp_shifted_skb() does not need to adjust the lost_cnt_hint by itself. When shifting a skb that is equal to lost_skb_hint, the shifted packets will not be counted by tcp_mark_head_lost(). So tcp_shifted_skb() should adjust the lost_cnt_hint even tcp_is_fack(tp) is true. Signed-off-by: Zheng Yan <zheng.z.yan@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-10-03mac80211: Send nullfunc frames at lower rate during connection monitorRajkumar Manoharan
Recently mac80211 was changed to use nullfunc instead of probe request for connection monitoring for tx ack status reporting hardwares. Sometimes in congested network, STA got disconnected quickly after the association. It was observered that the rate control was not adopted to environment due to minimal transmission. As the nullfunc are used for monitoring purpose, these frames should not be sacrificed for rate control updation.

2011-10-03make PACKET_STATISTICS getsockopt report consistently between ring and non-ringWillem de Bruijn
This is a minor change. Up until kernel 2.6.32, getsockopt(fd, SOL_PACKET, PACKET_STATISTICS, ...) would return total and dropped packets since its last invocation. The introduction of socket queue overflow reporting [1] changed drop rate calculation in the normal packet socket path, but not when using a packet ring. As a result, the getsockopt now returns different statistics depending on the reception method used. With a ring, it still returns the count since the last call, as counts are incremented in tpacket_rcv and reset in getsockopt. Without a ring, it returns 0 if no drops occurred since the last getsockopt and the total drops over the lifespan of the socket otherwise. The culprit is this line in packet_rcv, executed on a drop: drop_n_acct: po->stats.tp_drops = atomic_inc_return(&sk->sk_drops); As it shows, the new drop number it taken from the socket drop counter, which is not reset at getsockopt. I put together a small example that demonstrates the issue [2]. It runs for 10 seconds and overflows the queue/ring on every odd second. The reported drop rates are: ring: 16, 0, 16, 0, 16, ... non-ring: 0, 15, 0, 30, 0, 46, 0, 60, 0 , 74. Note how the even ring counts monotonically increase. Because the getsockopt adds tp_drops to tp_packets, total counts are similarly reported cumulatively. Long story short, reinstating the original code, as the below patch does, fixes the issue at the cost of additional per-packet cycles. Another solution that does not introduce per-packet overhead is be to keep the current data path, record the value of sk_drops at getsockopt() at call N in a new field in struct packetsock and subtract that when reporting at call N+1. I'll be happy to code that, instead, it's just more messy.
