2010-05-03net: rcu fixesEric Dumazet
Add hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh() and hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh() macros, and use them in ipv6_get_ifaddr(), if6_get_first() and if6_get_next() to fix lockdeps warnings.

2010-05-03mac80211: improve IBSS scanningJohannes Berg
When IBSS is fixed to a frequency, it can still scan to try to find the right BSSID. This makes sense if the BSSID isn't also fixed, but it need not scan all channels -- just one is sufficient. Make it do that by moving the scan setup code to ieee80211_request_internal_scan() and include a channel variable setting. Note that this can be further improved to start the IBSS right away if both frequency and BSSID are fixed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

2010-05-03mac80211: allow controlling aggregation manuallyJohannes Berg
This allows enabling TX and disabling both TX and RX aggregation sessions manually in debugfs. It is very useful for debugging session initiation and teardown problems since with this you don't have to force a lot of traffic to get aggregation and thus have less data to analyse. Also, to debug mac80211 code itself, make hwsim "support" aggregation sessions. It will still just transfer the frame, but go through the setup and teardown handshakes.

2010-05-03sunrpc: centralise most calls to svc_xprt_receivedNeil Brown
svc_xprt_received must be called when ->xpo_recvfrom has finished receiving a message, so that the XPT_BUSY flag will be cleared and if necessary, requeued for further work. This call is currently made in each ->xpo_recvfrom function, often from multiple different points. In each case it is the earliest point on a particular path where it is known that the protection provided by XPT_BUSY is no longer needed. However there are (still) some error paths which do not call svc_xprt_received, and requiring each ->xpo_recvfrom to make the call does not encourage robustness. So: move the svc_xprt_received call to be made just after the call to ->xpo_recvfrom(), and move it of the various ->xpo_recvfrom methods. This means that it may not be called at the earliest possible instant, but this is unlikely to be a measurable performance issue. Note that there are still other calls to svc_xprt_received as it is also needed when an xprt is newly created. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de> Signed-off-by: J.

In commit 6be8ac2f ("[NET]: uninline skb_pull, de-bloats a lot") we uninlined skb_pull. But in some critical paths it makes sense to inline this thing and it helps performance significantly.

2010-05-01net: sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversionEric Dumazet
sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk->sk_sleep pointer, so we need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming packet. RCU conversion is pretty much needed : 1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer). [Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing] 2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in sock_alloc_inode(). 3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq" 4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct socket_wq" 5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk->sk_wq instead of sk->sk_sleep 6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside a rcu_read_lock() section. 7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to : - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks. - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) 8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well. 9) Exceptions : macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq" instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing. Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).

2010-04-30sctp: Tag messages that can be Nagle delayed at creation.Vlad Yasevich
When we create the sctp_datamsg and fragment the user data, we know exactly if we are sending full segments or not and how they might be bundled. During this time, we can mark messages a Nagle capable or not. This makes the check at transmit time much simpler. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>
2010-04-30sctp: Optimize computation of highest new tsn in SACK.Vlad Yasevich
Right now, if the highest tsn in the SACK doesn't change, we'll end up scanning the transmitted lists on the transports twice: once for locating the highest _new_ tsn, and once for actually tagging chunks as acked. This is a waste, since we can record the highest _new_ tsn at the same time as tagging chunks. Long ago this was not possible because we would try to mark chunks as missing at the same time as tagging them acked and this approach didn't work. Now that the two steps are separate, we can re-use the old approach. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

2010-04-30sctp: rwnd_press should be cumulativeVlad Yasevich
rwnd_press tracks the pressure on the recieve window. Every timer the receive buffer overlows, we truncate the receive window and then grow it back.

2010-04-30sctp: remove 'resent' bit from the chunkVlad Yasevich
The 'resent' bit is used to make sure that we don't update rto estimate based on retransmitted chunks. However, we already have the 'rto_pending' bit that we test when need to update rto, so 'resent' bit is just extra. Additionally, we currently have a bug in that we always set a 'resent' bit and thus rto estimate is only updated by Heartbeats. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

2010-04-28net: speedup udp receive pathEric Dumazet
Since commit 95766fff ([UDP]: Add memory accounting.), each received packet needs one extra sock_lock()/sock_release() pair. This added latency because of possible backlog handling. Then later, ticket spinlocks added yet another latency source in case of DDOS. This patch introduces lock_sock_bh() and unlock_sock_bh() synchronization primitives, avoiding one atomic operation and backlog processing. skb_free_datagram_locked() uses them instead of full blown lock_sock()/release_sock(). skb is orphaned inside locked section for proper socket memory reclaim, and finally freed outside of it.

The problem is in sctp_process_unk_param: if (NULL == *errp) *errp = sctp_make_op_error_space(asoc, chunk, ntohs(chunk->chunk_hdr->length)); if (*errp) { sctp_init_cause(*errp, SCTP_ERROR_UNKNOWN_PARAM, WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length))); sctp_addto_chunk(*errp, WORD_ROUND(ntohs(param.p->length)), param.v); When we allocate an error chunk, we assume that the worst case scenario requires that we have chunk_hdr->length data allocated, which would be correct nominally, given that we call sctp_addto_chunk for the violating parameter. Unfortunately, we also, in sctp_init_cause insert a sctp_errhdr_t structure into the error chunk, so the worst case situation in which all parameters are in violation requires chunk_hdr->length+(sizeof(sctp_errhdr_t)*param_count) bytes of data.

Some drivers (e.g. iwlwifi) need to know and try to figure it out based on other things, but making it explicit is definitely better. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

2010-04-28caif: Rewritten socket implementationSjur Braendeland
Changes: This is a complete re-write of the socket layer. Making the socket implementation more aligned with the other socket layers and using more of the support functions available in sock.c. Lots of code is copied from af_unix (and some from af_irda). Non-blocking mode should be working as well. Signed-off-by: Sjur Braendeland <sjur.brandeland@stericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-04-28caif: Disconnect without waiting for responseSjur Braendeland
Changes: o Function cfcnfg_disconn_adapt_layer is changed to do asynchronous disconnect, not waiting for any response from the modem. Due to this the function cfcnfg_linkdestroy_rsp does nothing anymore. o Because disconnect may take down a connection before a connect response is received the function cfcnfg_linkup_rsp is checking if the client is still waiting for the response, if not a disconnect request is sent to the modem. o cfctrl is no longer keeping track of pending disconnect requests. o Added function cfctrl_cancel_req, which is used for deleting a pending connect request if disconnect is done before connect response is received. o Removed unused function cfctrl_insert_req2 o Added better handling of connect reject from modem.
