Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2015-05-13T18:31:43+00:00

Four minor merge conflicts: 1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call got moved further up in the probe function. 2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the initializer function. 3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is completely removed in 'net-next'. 4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the argument signature a bit. This also matches example merge resolutions posted by Stephen Rothwell over the past two days. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net_sched: gred: add TCA_GRED_LIMIT attribute

2015-05-12T22:22:49+00:00

In a GRED qdisc, if the default "virtual queue" (VQ) does not have drop parameters configured, then packets for the default VQ are not subjected to RED and are only dropped if the queue is larger than the net_device's tx_queue_len. This behavior is useful for WRED mode, since these packets will still influence the calculated average queue length and (therefore) the drop probability for all of the other VQs. However, for some drivers tx_queue_len is zero. In other cases the user may wish to make the limit the same for all VQs (including the default VQ with no drop parameters). This change adds a TCA_GRED_LIMIT attribute to set the GRED queue limit, in bytes, during qdisc setup. (This limit is in bytes to be consistent with the drop parameters.) The default limit is the same as for a bfifo queue (tx_queue_len * psched_mtu). If the drop parameters of any VQ are configured with a smaller limit than the GRED queue limit, that VQ will still observe the smaller limit instead. Signed-off-by: David Ward Signed-off-by: David S.

net_sched: gred: use correct backlog value in WRED mode

2015-05-11T17:26:26+00:00

In WRED mode, the backlog for a single virtual queue (VQ) should not be used to determine queue behavior; instead the backlog is summed across all VQs. This sum is currently used when calculating the average queue lengths. It also needs to be used when determining if the queue's hard limit has been reached, or when reporting each VQ's backlog via netlink. q->backlog will only be used if the queue switches out of WRED mode.

net: sched: implement qstat helper routines

2014-09-30T05:02:26+00:00

This adds helpers to manipulate qstats logic and replaces locations that touch the counters directly. This simplifies future patches to push qstats onto per cpu counters. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net_sched: gred: actually perform idling in WRED mode

2012-09-13T20:10:13+00:00

gred_dequeue() and gred_drop() do not seem to get called when the queue is empty, meaning that we never start idling while in WRED mode. And since qidlestart is not stored by gred_store_wred_set(), we would never stop idling while in WRED mode if we ever started. This messes up the average queue size calculation that influences packet marking/dropping behavior. Now, we start WRED mode idling as we are removing the last packet from the queue. Also we now actually stop WRED mode idling when we are enqueuing a packet. Cc: Bruce Osler Signed-off-by: David Ward Acked-by: Jamal Hadi Salim Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net_sched: gred: fix qave reporting via netlink

2012-09-13T20:10:13+00:00

q->vars.qavg is a Wlog scaled value, but q->backlog is not. In order to pass q->vars.qavg as the backlog value, we need to un-scale it. Additionally, the qave value returned via netlink should not be Wlog scaled, so we need to un-scale the result of red_calc_qavg(). This caused artificially high values for "Average Queue" to be shown by 'tc -s -d qdisc', but did not affect the actual operation of GRED.
