Pull cleanup from Paul Gortmaker: "The changes shown here are to unify linux's BUG support under the one file. Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h was including to pseudo link them. This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here is an example that violates the principle of least surprise: CC lib/string.o lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat': lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON' make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1 $ $ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c #include $ We've included for the BUG infrastructure and yet we still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh - very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development. With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are: 1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the implicit presence of BUG code. 2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code. 3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to 4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain. During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem areas in advance.

BUG: headers with BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.h

2012-03-04T22:54:34+00:00

If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then that header really should be including and not just expecting it to be implicitly present. We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have been causing compile failures/warnings.

tcp: fix comment for tp->highest_sack

2012-02-28T20:06:33+00:00

There was an off-by-one error in the comments describing the highest_sack field in struct tcp_sock. The comments previously claimed that it was the "start sequence of the highest skb with SACKed bit". This commit fixes the comments to note that it is the "start sequence of the skb just *after* the highest skb with SACKed bit".

net: Disambiguate kernel message

2012-02-01T19:41:50+00:00

Some of our machines were reporting: TCP: too many of orphaned sockets even when the number of orphaned sockets was well below the limit. We print a different message depending on whether we're out of TCP memory or there are too many orphaned sockets. Also move the check out of line and cleanup the messages that were printed.

tcp: md5: protects md5sig_info with RCU

2012-02-01T07:11:47+00:00

This patch makes sure we use appropriate memory barriers before publishing tp->md5sig_info, allowing tcp_md5_do_lookup() being used from tcp_v4_send_reset() without holding socket lock (upcoming patch from Shawn Lu) Note we also need to respect rcu grace period before its freeing, since we can free socket without this grace period thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Shawn Lu Signed-off-by: David S.

tcp: md5: rcu conversion

2012-01-31T17:14:00+00:00

In order to be able to support proper RST messages for TCP MD5 flows, we need to allow access to MD5 keys without locking listener socket. This conversion is a nice cleanup, and shrinks size of timewait sockets by 80 bytes. IPv6 code reuses generic code found in IPv4 instead of duplicating it. Control path uses GFP_KERNEL allocations instead of GFP_ATOMIC. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Shawn Lu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/tcp: Fix tcp memory limits initialization when !CONFIG_SYSCTL

2012-01-30T17:41:06+00:00

sysctl_tcp_mem() initialization was moved to sysctl_tcp_ipv4.c in commit 3dc43e3e4d0b52197d3205214fe8f162f9e0c334, since it became a per-ns value. That code, however, will never run when CONFIG_SYSCTL is disabled, leading to bogus values on those fields - causing hung TCP sockets. This patch fixes it by keeping an initialization code in tcp_init(). It will be overwritten by the first net namespace init if CONFIG_SYSCTL is compiled in, and do the right thing if it is compiled out. It is also named properly as tcp_init_mem(), to properly signal its non-sysctl side effect on TCP limits. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa Cc: David S.
