can: replace timestamp as unique skb attribute

2015-07-12T19:13:22+00:00

Commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb->tstamp to be set to check for identical CAN skbs. Without timestamping to be required by user space applications this timestamp was not generated which lead to commit 36c01245eb8 "can: fix loss of CAN frames in raw_rcv" - which forces the timestamp to be set in all CAN related skbuffs by introducing several __net_timestamp() calls. This forces e.g. out of tree drivers which are not using alloc_can{,fd}_skb() to add __net_timestamp() after skbuff creation to prevent the frame loss fixed in mainline Linux. This patch removes the timestamp dependency and uses an atomic counter to create an unique identifier together with the skbuff pointer. Btw: the new skbcnt element introduced in struct can_skb_priv has to be initialized with zero in out-of-tree drivers which are not using alloc_can{,fd}_skb() too.

can: fix loss of CAN frames in raw_rcv

2015-06-21T16:58:58+00:00

As reported by Manfred Schlaegl here http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=143482089824232&w=2 commit 514ac99c64b "can: fix multiple delivery of a single CAN frame for overlapping CAN filters" requires the skb->tstamp to be set to check for identical CAN skbs. As net timestamping is influenced by several players (netstamp_needed and netdev_tstamp_prequeue) Manfred missed a proper timestamp which leads to CAN frame loss. As skb timestamping became now mandatory for CAN related skbs this patch makes sure that received CAN skbs always have a proper timestamp set. Maybe there's a better solution in the future but this patch fixes the CAN frame loss so far.

can: add missing initialisations in CAN related skbuffs

2015-03-09T09:22:24+00:00

When accessing CAN network interfaces with AF_PACKET sockets e.g. by dhclient this can lead to a skb_under_panic due to missing skb initialisations. Add the missing initialisations at the CAN skbuff creation times on driver level (rx path) and in the network layer (tx path).

can: eliminate banner[] variable and switch to pr_info()

2014-12-07T20:22:01+00:00

Several CAN modules use a design pattern with a banner[] variable at the top which defines a string that is used once during init to print the banner. The string is also embedded with KERN_INFO which makes it printk() specific. Improve the code by eliminating the banner[] variable and moving the string to where it is printed. Then switch from printk(KERN_INFO to pr_info() for the lines that were changed. Signed-off-by: Jeremiah Mahler Acked-by: Oliver Hartkopp Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

can: add hash based access to single EFF frame filters

2014-05-19T07:38:24+00:00

In contrast to the direct access to the single SFF frame filters (which are indexed by the SFF CAN ID itself) the single EFF frame filters are arranged in a single linked hlist. To reduce the hlist traversal in the case of many filter subscriptions a hash based access is introduced for single EFF filters. Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

can: add destructor for self generated skbs

2014-01-31T00:25:49+00:00

Self generated skbuffs in net/can/bcm.c are setting a skb->sk reference but no explicit destructor which is enforced since Linux 3.11 with commit 376c7311bdb6 (net: add a temporary sanity check in skb_orphan()). This patch adds some helper functions to make sure that a destructor is properly defined when a sock reference is assigned to a CAN related skb. To create an unshared skb owned by the original sock a common helper function has been introduced to replace open coded functions to create CAN echo skbs.
