2013-12-09pkt_sched: give visibility to mq slave qdiscsEric Dumazet
Commit 6da7c8fcbcbd ("qdisc: allow setting default queuing discipline") added the ability to change default qdisc from pfifo_fast to say fq But as most modern ethernet devices are multiqueue, we cant really see all the statistics from "tc -s qdisc show", as the default root qdisc is mq.

2013-12-06net: introduce dev_consume_skb_any()Eric Dumazet
Some network drivers use dev_kfree_skb_any() and dev_kfree_skb_irq() helpers to free skbs, both for dropped packets and TX completed ones. We need to separate the two causes to get better diagnostics given by dropwatch or "perf record -e skb:kfree_skb" This patch provides two new helpers, dev_consume_skb_any() and dev_consume_skb_irq() to be used for consumed skbs. __dev_kfree_skb_irq() is slightly optimized to remove one atomic_dec_and_test() in fast path, and use this_cpu_{r|w} accessors.

2013-12-06tcp: auto corkingEric Dumazet
With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets. Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes) If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push will be delayed up to TX completion time. This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls. The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring. Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of autocorking being triggered. Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control this feature and default it to 1 (enabled) Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used and its flush was deferred. Tested: Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh. Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput. lpq83:~# echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking lpq83:~# perf stat ./super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128 9410.39 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128': 35209.439626 task-clock # 2.901 CPUs utilized 2,294 context-switches # 0.065 K/sec 101 CPU-migrations # 0.003 K/sec 4,079 page-faults # 0.116 K/sec 97,923,241,298 cycles # 2.781 GHz [83.31%] 51,832,908,236 stalled-cycles-frontend # 52.93% frontend cycles idle [83.30%] 25,697,986,603 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.24% backend cycles idle [66.70%] 102,225,978,536 instructions # 1.04 insns per cycle # 0.51 stalled cycles per insn [83.38%] 18,657,696,819 branches # 529.906 M/sec [83.29%] 91,679,646 branch-misses # 0.49% of all branches [83.40%] 12.136204899 seconds time elapsed lpq83:~# echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking lpq83:~# perf stat ./super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128 6624.89 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128': 40045.864494 task-clock # 3.301 CPUs utilized 171 context-switches # 0.004 K/sec 53 CPU-migrations # 0.001 K/sec 4,080 page-faults # 0.102 K/sec 111,340,458,645 cycles # 2.780 GHz [83.34%] 61,778,039,277 stalled-cycles-frontend # 55.49% frontend cycles idle [83.31%] 29,295,522,759 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.31% backend cycles idle [66.67%] 108,654,349,355 instructions # 0.98 insns per cycle # 0.57 stalled cycles per insn [83.34%] 19,552,170,748 branches # 488.244 M/sec [83.34%] 157,875,417 branch-misses # 0.81% of all branches [83.34%] 12.130267788 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-12-03rds: prevent BUG_ON triggered on congestion update to loopbackVenkat Venkatsubra
After congestion update on a local connection, when rds_ib_xmit returns less bytes than that are there in the message, rds_send_xmit calls back rds_ib_xmit with an offset that causes BUG_ON(off & RDS_FRAG_SIZE) to trigger. For a 4Kb PAGE_SIZE rds_ib_xmit returns min(8240,4096)=4096 when actually the message contains 8240 bytes. rds_send_xmit thinks there is more to send and calls rds_ib_xmit again with a data offset "off" of 4096-48(rds header) =4048 bytes thus hitting the BUG_ON(off & RDS_FRAG_SIZE) [RDS_FRAG_SIZE=4k]. The commit 6094628bfd94323fc1cea05ec2c6affd98c18f7f "rds: prevent BUG_ON triggering on congestion map updates" introduced this regression. That change was addressing the triggering of a different BUG_ON in rds_send_xmit() on PowerPC architecture with 64Kbytes PAGE_SIZE: BUG_ON(ret != 0 && conn->c_xmit_sg == rm->data.op_nents); This was the sequence it was going through: (rds_ib_xmit) /* Do not send cong updates to IB loopback */ if (conn->c_loopback && rm->m_inc.i_hdr.h_flags & RDS_FLAG_CONG_BITMAP) { rds_cong_map_updated(conn->c_fcong, ~(u64) 0); return sizeof(struct rds_header) + RDS_CONG_MAP_BYTES; } rds_ib_xmit returns 8240 rds_send_xmit: c_xmit_data_off = 0 + 8240 - 48 (rds header accounted only the first time) = 8192 c_xmit_data_off < 65536 (sg->length), so calls rds_ib_xmit again rds_ib_xmit returns 8240 rds_send_xmit: c_xmit_data_off = 8192 + 8240 = 16432, calls rds_ib_xmit again and so on (c_xmit_data_off 24672,32912,41152,49392,57632) rds_ib_xmit returns 8240 On this iteration this sequence causes the BUG_ON in rds_send_xmit: while (ret) { tmp = min_t(int, ret, sg->length - conn->c_xmit_data_off); [tmp = 65536 - 57632 = 7904] conn->c_xmit_data_off += tmp; [c_xmit_data_off = 57632 + 7904 = 65536] ret -= tmp; [ret = 8240 - 7904 = 336] if (conn->c_xmit_data_off == sg->length) { conn->c_xmit_data_off = 0; sg++; conn->c_xmit_sg++; BUG_ON(ret != 0 && conn->c_xmit_sg == rm->data.op_nents); [c_xmit_sg = 1, rm->data.op_nents = 1] What the current fix does: Since the congestion update over loopback is not actually transmitted as a message, all that rds_ib_xmit needs to do is let the caller think the full message has been transmitted and not return partial bytes. It will return 8240 (RDS_CONG_MAP_BYTES+48) when PAGE_SIZE is 4Kb. And 64Kb+48 when page size is 64Kb.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Here is a pile of bug fixes that accumulated while I was in Europe" 1) In fixing kernel leaks to userspace during copying of socket addresses, we broke a case that used to work, namely the user providing a buffer larger than the in-kernel generic socket address structure. This broke Ruby amongst other things. Fix from Dan Carpenter. 2) Fix regression added by byte queue limit support in 8139cp driver, from Yang Yingliang. 3) The addition of MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST buggered up a few sendpage implementations, they should just treat it the same as MSG_MORE. Fix from Richard Weinberger and Shawn Landden. 4) Handle icmpv4 errors received on ipv6 SIT tunnels correctly, from Oussama Ghorbel. In particular we should send an ICMPv6 unreachable in such situations. 5) Fix some regressions in the recent genetlink fixes, in particular get the pmcraid driver to use the new safer interfaces correctly. From Johannes Berg. 6) macvtap was converted to use a per-cpu set of statistics, but some code was still bumping tx_dropped elsewhere. From Jason Wang. 7) Fix build failure of xen-netback due to missing include on some architectures, from Andy Whitecroft. 8) macvtap double counts received packets in statistics, fix from Vlad Yasevich. 9) Fix various cases of using *_STATS_BH() when *_STATS() is more appropriate. From Eric Dumazet and Hannes Frederic Sowa. 10) Pktgen ipsec mode doesn't update the ipv4 header length and checksum properly after encapsulation.

2013-12-02mac80211: don't cancel csa finalize work within stop_apSimon Wunderlich
The current channel switch code has a potential deadlock: 1) * cfg80211_stop_ap acquires wdev-lock * ieee80211_stop_ap calls cancel_work_sync for the csa_finalize_work, which acquires the associated worker-lock 2) * ieee80211_csa_finalize_work holds the worker-lock when run * it calls cfg80211_ch_switch_notify which will claim the wdev-lock, and also needs to claim the sdata-lock (which is the same as the wdev-lock) to modify the beacons. It is sufficient to just set the channel switch active to false. If the worker is running later, it will find the channel switch to not be active anymore and returns immediately without changing anything. Canceling the worker is done anyway when the interface goes down (ieee80211_do_stop).

This makes the functions' signatures less clumsy and allows less painful parameters extension.

2013-12-02mac80211: update ht flag if bss configuration changedAvri Altman
There's a bug in tracking HT opmode changes in mac80211, it fails to update the driver when the channel parameters don't change. Move the code to do the HT opmode checking independently of the channel/bandwidth tracking.

2013-12-02mac80211: remove sta_info_flush() from interface teardownJohannes Berg
All interface types now properly clean up their stations using some form of sta_info_flush() themselves, so there's no need to try it again at teardown. Remove the call to get rid of the extra delay from the synchronize_net() and rcu_barrier() calls.

2013-12-02mac80211: Tx frame latency statisticsMatti Gottlieb
Measure TX latency and jitter statistics per station per TID. These Measurements are disabled by default and can be enabled via debugfs. Features included for each station's TID: 1. Keep count of the maximum and average latency of Tx frames. 2. Keep track of many frames arrived in a specific time range (need to enable through debugfs and configure the bins ranges) Signed-off-by: Matti Gottlieb <matti.gottlieb@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-12-02cfg80211: fix reporting 5/10 MHz support to user spaceFelix Fietkau
nla_put_flag needs a real nl80211 attribute id, not a wiphy flag bit. While at it, split 5 and 10 MHz capability flags in case we ever need to support hardware that can only do one of the two. Also move the flag settings to the split-only information so we don't increase the space needed for old userspace.

2013-12-01{pktgen, xfrm} Update IPv4 header total len and checksum after tranformationfan.du
commit a553e4a6317b2cfc7659542c10fe43184ffe53da ("[PKTGEN]: IPSEC support") tried to support IPsec ESP transport transformation for pktgen, but acctually this doesn't work at all for two reasons(The orignal transformed packet has bad IPv4 checksum value, as well as wrong auth value, reported by wireshark) - After transpormation, IPv4 header total length needs update, because encrypted payload's length is NOT same as that of plain text. - After transformation, IPv4 checksum needs re-caculate because of payload has been changed. With this patch, armmed pktgen with below cofiguration, Wireshark is able to decrypted ESP packet generated by pktgen without any IPv4 checksum error or auth value error. pgset "flag IPSEC" pgset "flows 1" Signed-off-by: Fan Du <fan.du@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
