2012-04-03filter: Allow to create sk-unattached filtersJiri Pirko
Today, BPF filters are bind to sockets. Since BPF machine becomes handy for other purposes, this patch allows to create unattached filter. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-04-03bpf jit: Make the filter.c::__load_pointer helper non-static for the jitsJan Seiffert
The function is renamed to make it a little more clear what it does. It is not added to any .h because it is not for general consumption, only for bpf internal use (and so by the jits).

2012-04-03tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packetsEric Dumazet
vmsplice()/splice(pipe, socket) call do_tcp_sendpages() one page at a time, adding at most 4096 bytes to an skb. (assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096) The call to tcp_push() at the end of do_tcp_sendpages() forces an immediate xmit when pipe is not already filled, and tso_fragment() try to split these skb to MSS multiples. 4096 bytes are usually split in a skb with 2 MSS, and a remaining sub-mss skb (assuming MTU=1500) This makes slow start suboptimal because many small frames are sent to qdisc/driver layers instead of big ones (constrained by cwnd and packets in flight of course) In fact, applications using sendmsg() (adding an additional memory copy) instead of vmsplice()/splice()/sendfile() are a bit faster because of this anomaly, especially if serving small files in environments with large initial [c]wnd. Call tcp_push() only if MSG_MORE is not set in the flags parameter. This bit is automatically provided by splice() internals but for the last page, or on all pages if user specified SPLICE_F_MORE splice() flag. In some workloads, this can reduce number of sent logical packets by an order of magnitude, making zero-copy TCP actually faster than one-copy :) Reported-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: H.K.

2012-04-03net: fix /proc/net/dev regressionEric Dumazet
Commit f04565ddf52 (dev: use name hash for dev_seq_ops) added a second regression, as some devices are missing from /proc/net/dev if many devices are defined. When seq_file buffer is filled, the last ->next/show() method is canceled (pos value is reverted to value prior ->next() call) Problem is after above commit, we dont restart the lookup at right position in ->start() method. Fix this by removing the internal 'pos' pointer added in commit, since we need to use the 'loff_t *pos' provided by seq_file layer. This also reverts commit 5cac98dd0 (net: Fix corruption in /proc/*/net/dev_mcast), since its not needed anymore.

2012-04-03af_unix: reduce high order page allocationsEric Dumazet
unix_dgram_sendmsg() currently builds linear skbs, and this can stress page allocator with high order page allocations. When memory gets fragmented, this can eventually fail. We can try to use order-2 allocations for skb head (SKB_MAX_ALLOC) plus up to 16 page fragments to lower pressure on buddy allocator. This patch has no effect on messages of less than 16064 bytes. (on 64bit arches with PAGE_SIZE=4096) For bigger messages (from 16065 to 81600 bytes), this patch brings reliability at the expense of performance penalty because of extra pages allocations. netperf -t DG_STREAM -T 0,2 -- -m 16064 -s 200000 ->4086040 Messages / 10s netperf -t DG_STREAM -T 0,2 -- -m 16068 -s 200000 ->3901747 Messages / 10s Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Provide device string properly for USB i2400m wimax devices, also don't OOPS when providing firmware string. From Phil Sutter. 2) Add support for sh_eth SH7734 chips, from Nobuhiro Iwamatsu. 3) Add another device ID to USB zaurus driver, from Guan Xin. 4) Loop index start in pool vector iterator is wrong causing MAC to not get configured in bnx2x driver, fix from Dmitry Kravkov. 5) EQL driver assumes HZ=100, fix from Eric Dumazet. 6) Now that skb_add_rx_frag() can specify the truesize increment separately, do so in f_phonet and cdc_phonet, also from Eric Dumazet. 7) virtio_net accidently uses net_ratelimit() not only on the kernel warning but also the statistic bump, fix from Rick Jones. 8) ip_route_input_mc() uses fixed init_net namespace, oops, use dev_net(dev) instead. Fix from Benjamin LaHaise. 9) dev_forward_skb() needs to clear the incoming interface index of the SKB so that it looks like a new incoming packet, also from Benjamin LaHaise. 10) iwlwifi mistakenly initializes a channel entry as 2GHZ instead of 5GHZ, fix from Stanislav Yakovlev. 11) Missing kmalloc() return value checks in orinoco, from Santosh Nayak. 12) ath9k doesn't check for HT capabilities in the right way, it is checking ht_supported instead of the ATH9K_HW_CAP_HT flag.

Fix from Andreas Mohr. 19) RIONET assumes 4K page size, fix from Akinobu Mita. 20) Initialization of imask register in sky2 is buggy, because bits are "or'd" into an uninitialized local variable.

2012-04-02openvswitch: Add length check when retrieving TCP flags.Jesse Gross
When collecting TCP flags we check that the IP header indicates that a TCP header is present but not that the packet is actually long enough to contain the header. This adds a check to prevent reading off the end of the packet. In practice, this is only likely to result in reading of bad data and not a crash due to the presence of struct skb_shared_info at the end of the packet. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
2012-04-02net: Report dev->promiscuity in netlink reports.Ben Greear
