2011-11-16net: use jump_label for netstamp_neededEric Dumazet
netstamp_needed seems a good candidate to jump_label conversion. This avoids 3 conditional branches per incoming packet in fast path. No measurable difference, given that these conditional branches are predicted on modern cpus. Only a small icache reduction, thanks to the unlikely() stuff.

2011-11-14IPv6 routing, NLM_F_* flag support: REPLACE and EXCL flags support, warn ↵Matti Vaittinen
about missing CREATE flag The support for NLM_F_* flags at IPv6 routing requests. If NLM_F_CREATE flag is not defined for RTM_NEWROUTE request, warning is printed, but no error is returned. Instead new route is added. Later NLM_F_CREATE may be required for new route creation. Exception is when NLM_F_REPLACE flag is given without NLM_F_CREATE, and no matching route is found. In this case it should be safe to assume that the request issuer is familiar with NLM_F_* flags, and does really not want route to be created. Specifying NLM_F_REPLACE flag will now make the kernel to search for matching route, and replace it with new one. If no route is found and NLM_F_CREATE is specified as well, then new route is created. Also, specifying NLM_F_EXCL will yield returning of error if matching route is found.

2011-11-14net: introduce build_skb()Eric Dumazet
One of the thing we discussed during netdev 2011 conference was the idea to change some network drivers to allocate/populate their skb at RX completion time, right before feeding the skb to network stack. In old days, we allocated skbs when populating the RX ring. This means bringing into cpu cache sk_buff and skb_shared_info cache lines (since we clear/initialize them), then 'queue' skb->data to NIC. By the time NIC fills a frame in skb->data buffer and host can process it, cpu probably threw away the cache lines from its caches, because lot of things happened between the allocation and final use. So the deal would be to allocate only the data buffer for the NIC to populate its RX ring buffer. And use build_skb() at RX completion to attach a data buffer (now filled with an ethernet frame) to a new skb, initialize the skb_shared_info portion, and give the hot skb to network stack. build_skb() is the function to allocate an skb, caller providing the data buffer that should be attached to it. Drivers are expected to call skb_reserve() right after build_skb() to adjust skb->data to the Ethernet frame (usually skipping NET_SKB_PAD and NET_IP_ALIGN, but some drivers might add a hardware provided alignment) Data provided to build_skb() MUST have been allocated by a prior kmalloc() call, with enough room to add SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) bytes at the end of the data without corrupting incoming frame. data = kmalloc(NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + 1536 + SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)), GFP_ATOMIC); ... skb = build_skb(data); if (!skb) { recycle_data(data); } else { skb_reserve(skb, NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN); ... } Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Eilon Greenstein <eilong@broadcom.com> CC: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> CC: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> CC: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@mojatatu.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> CC: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org> CC: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> CC: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-14ipv6: reduce percpu needs for icmpv6msg mibsEric Dumazet
Reading /proc/net/snmp6 on a machine with a lot of cpus is very expensive (can be ~88000 us). This is because ICMPV6MSG MIB uses 4096 bytes per cpu, and folding values for all possible cpus can read 16 Mbytes of memory (32MBytes on non x86 arches) ICMP messages are not considered as fast path on a typical server, and eventually few cpus handle them anyway. We can afford an atomic operation instead of using percpu data. This saves 4096 bytes per cpu and per network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference. We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load. We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios. This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as well. On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg() calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps. IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware UDP application. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Simon Kirby reported lockdep warnings and following messages : [104661.897577] huh, entered softirq 3 NET_RX ffffffff81613740 preempt_count 00000101, exited with 00000102?

Problem comes from commit 0e734419 (ipv4: Use inet_csk_route_child_sock() in DCCP and TCP.) If inet_csk_route_child_sock() returns NULL, we should release socket lock before freeing it. Another lock imbalance exists if __inet_inherit_port() returns an error since commit 093d282321da ( tproxy: fix hash locking issue when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()) a backport is also needed for >= 2.6.37 kernels.

2011-11-02mac80211: disable powersave for broken APsJohannes Berg
Only AID values 1-2007 are valid, but some APs have been found to send random bogus values, in the reported case an AP that was sending the AID field value 0xffff, an AID of 0x3fff (16383). There isn't much we can do but disable powersave since there's no way it can work properly in this case.

2011-11-02mac80211: fix remain_off_channel regressionEliad Peller
The offchannel code is currently broken - we should remain_off_channel if the work was started, and the work's channel and channel_type are the same as local->tmp_channel and local->tmp_channel_type. However, if wk->chan_type and local->tmp_channel_type coexist (e.g. have the same channel type), we won't remain_off_channel. This behavior was introduced by commit da2fd1f ("mac80211: Allow work items to use existing channel type.")

2011-11-01net: make the tcp and udp file_operations for the /proc stuff constArjan van de Ven
the tcp and udp code creates a set of struct file_operations at runtime while it can also be done at compile time, with the added benefit of then having these file operations be const. the trickiest part was to get the "THIS_MODULE" reference right; the naive method of declaring a struct in the place of registration would not work for this reason.

2011-11-01vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces.Matthijs Kooijman
When (de)configuring a vlan interface, the IFF_ALLMULTI ans IFF_PROMISC flags are cleared or set on the underlying interface. So, if these flags are changed on a vlan interface that is not up, the flags underlying interface might be set or cleared twice. Only propagating flag changes when a device is up makes sure this does not happen. It also makes sure that an underlying device is not set to promiscuous or allmulti mode for a vlan device that is down. Signed-off-by: Matthijs Kooijman <matthijs@stdin.nl> Signed-off-by: David S.
