2010-03-21pktgen node allocationRobert Olsson
Here is patch to manipulate packet node allocation and implicitly how packets are DMA'd etc. The flag NODE_ALLOC enables the function and numa_node_id(); when enabled it can also be explicitly controlled via a new node parameter Tested this with 10 Intel 82599 ports w. TYAN S7025 E5520 CPU's. Was able to TX/DMA ~80 Gbit/s to Ethernet wires. Signed-off-by: Robert Olsson <robert.olsson@its.uu.se> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-03-21net: snmp mib cleanupEric Dumazet
There is no point to align or pad mibs to cache lines, they are per cpu allocated with a 8 bytes alignment anyway. This wastes space for no gain. This patch removes __SNMP_MIB_ALIGN__ Since SNMP mibs contain "unsigned long" fields only, we can relax the allocation alignment from "unsigned long long" to "unsigned long" Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-03-21tcp: Add SNMP counter for DEFER_ACCEPTEric Dumazet
Its currently hard to diagnose when ACK frames are dropped because an application set TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT on its listening socket. See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15507 This patch adds a SNMP value, named TCPDeferAcceptDrop netstat -s | grep TCPDeferAcceptDrop TCPDeferAcceptDrop: 0 This counter is incremented every time we drop a pure ACK frame received by a socket in SYN_RECV state because its SYNACK retrans count is lower than defer_accept value.

After the type change, addresses in unicast and multicast lists wouldn't make sense, not to mention possible different lenghts. So flush both lists here.

2010-03-21Bluetooth: Convert debug files to actually use debugfs instead of sysfsMarcel Holtmann
Some of the debug files ended up wrongly in sysfs, because at that point of time, debugfs didn't exist. Convert these files to use debugfs and also seq_file. This patch converts all of these files at once and then removes the exported symbol for the Bluetooth sysfs class. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>
2010-03-21Bluetooth: Fix potential bad memory access with sysfs filesMarcel Holtmann
When creating a high number of Bluetooth sockets (L2CAP, SCO and RFCOMM) it is possible to scribble repeatedly on arbitrary pages of memory. Ensure that the content of these sysfs files is always less than one page. Even if this means truncating. The files in question are scheduled to be moved over to debugfs in the future anyway.

2010-03-20ipv6: Fix bug in ipv6_chk_same_addr().David S. Miller

2010-03-20ipv6: Reduce timer events for addrconf_verify().YOSHIFUJI Hideaki
This patch reduces timer events while keeping accuracy by rounding our timer and/or batching several address validations in addrconf_verify(). addrconf_verify() is called at earliest timeout among interface addresses' timeouts, but at maximum ADDR_CHECK_FREQUENCY (120 secs). In most cases, all of timeouts of interface addresses are long enough (e.g. several hours or days vs 2 minutes), this timer is usually called every ADDR_CHECK_FREQUENCY, and it is okay to be lazy. (Note this timer could be eliminated if all code paths which modifies variables related to timeouts call us manually, but it is another story.) However, in other least but important cases, we try keeping accuracy. When the real interface address timeout is coming, and the timeout is just before the rounded timeout, we accept some error. When a timeout has been reached, we also try batching other several events in very near future. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-03-20netlink: fix NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS in netlink_set_err()Pablo Neira Ayuso
Currently, ENOBUFS errors are reported to the socket via netlink_set_err() even if NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS is set. However, that should not happen. This fixes this problem and it changes the prototype of netlink_set_err() to return the number of sockets that have set the NETLINK_RECV_NO_ENOBUFS socket option. This return value is used in the next patch in these bugfix series. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-03-20NET_DMA: free skbs periodicallySteven J. Magnani
Under NET_DMA, data transfer can grind to a halt when userland issues a large read on a socket with a high RCVLOWAT (i.e., 512 KB for both). This appears to be because the NET_DMA design queues up lots of memcpy operations, but doesn't issue or wait for them (and thus free the associated skbs) until it is time for tcp_recvmesg() to return. The socket hangs when its TCP window goes to zero before enough data is available to satisfy the read. Periodically issue asynchronous memcpy operations, and free skbs for ones that have completed, to prevent sockets from going into zero-window mode. Signed-off-by: Steven J.

2010-03-19net: ipmr/ip6mr: fix potential out-of-bounds vif_table accessPatrick McHardy
mfc_parent of cache entries is used to index into the vif_table and is initialised from mfcctl->mfcc_parent. This can take values of to 2^16-1, while the vif_table has only MAXVIFS (32) entries. The same problem affects ip6mr. Refuse invalid values to fix a potential out-of-bounds access. Unlike the other validity checks, this is checked in ipmr_mfc_add() instead of the setsockopt handler since its unused in the delete path and might be uninitialized.

2010-03-19ipv6: Remove redundant dst NULL check in ip6_dst_checkHerbert Xu

2010-03-19ipv4: check rt_genid in dst_checkTimo Teräs
Xfrm_dst keeps a reference to ipv4 rtable entries on each cached bundle. The only way to renew xfrm_dst when the underlying route has changed, is to implement dst_check for this. This is what ipv6 side does too. The problems started after 87c1e12b5eeb7b30b4b41291bef8e0b41fc3dde9 ("ipsec: Fix bogus bundle flowi") which fixed a bug causing xfrm_dst to not get reused, until that all lookups always generated new xfrm_dst with new route reference and path mtu worked. But after the fix, the old routes started to get reused even after they were expired causing pmtu to break (well it would occationally work if the rtable gc had run recently and marked the route obsolete causing dst_check to get called).
