2010-10-14Phonet: 'connect' socket implementation for Pipe controllerKumar Sanghvi2-187/+212
Based on suggestion by Rémi Denis-Courmont to implement 'connect' for Pipe controller logic, this patch implements 'connect' socket call for the Pipe controller logic. The patch does following:- - Removes setsockopts for PNPIPE_CREATE and PNPIPE_DESTROY - Adds setsockopt for setting the Pipe handle value - Implements connect socket call - Updates the Pipe controller logic User-space should now follow below sequence with Pipe controller:- -socket -bind -setsockopt for PNPIPE_PIPE_HANDLE -connect -setsockopt for PNPIPE_ENCAP_IP -setsockopt for PNPIPE_ENABLE GPRS/3G data has been tested working fine with this.

2010-10-12net: percpu net_device refcountEric Dumazet1-7/+33
We tried very hard to remove all possible dev_hold()/dev_put() pairs in network stack, using RCU conversions. There is still an unavoidable device refcount change for every dst we create/destroy, and this can slow down some workloads (routers or some app servers, mmap af_packet) We can switch to a percpu refcount implementation, now dynamic per_cpu infrastructure is mature. On a 64 cpus machine, this consumes 256 bytes per device.

2010-10-12dccp: generalise data-loss conditionIvo Calado1-6/+15
This patch generalises the task of determining data loss from RFC 4340, 7.7.1. Let S_A, S_B be sequence numbers such that S_B is "after" S_A, and let N_B be the NDP count of packet S_B. Then, using modulo-2^48 arithmetic, D = S_B - S_A - 1 is an upper bound of the number of lost data packets, D - N_B is an approximation of the number of lost data packets (there are cases where this is not exact). The patch implements this as dccp_loss_count(S_A, S_B, N_B) := max(S_B - S_A - 1 - N_B, 0) Signed-off-by: Ivo Calado <ivocalado@embedded.ufcg.edu.br> Signed-off-by: Erivaldo Xavier <desadoc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Leandro Sales <leandroal@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk>

2010-10-12dccp: fix the adjustments to AWL and SWLGerrit Renker3-33/+35
This fixes a problem and a potential loophole with regard to seqno/ackno validity: currently the initial adjustments to AWL/SWL are only performed once at the begin of the connection, during the handshake. Since the Sequence Window feature is always greater than Wmin=32 (7.5.2), it is however necessary to perform these adjustments at least for the first W/W' (variables as per 7.5.1) packets in the lifetime of a connection. This requirement is complicated by the fact that W/W' can change at any time during the lifetime of a connection. Therefore it is better to perform that safety check each time SWL/AWL are updated, as implemented by the patch. A second problem solved by this patch is that the remote/local Sequence Window feature values (which set the bounds for AWL/SWL/SWH) are undefined until the feature negotiation has completed. During the initial handshake we have more stringent sequence number protection; the changes added by this patch effect that {A,S}W{L,H} are within the correct bounds at the instant that feature negotiation completes (since the SeqWin feature activation handlers call dccp_update_gsr/gss()).

In some situations (e.g. unchecked error conditions), the heap will remain unchanged in areas before copying back to userspace.

2010-10-11neigh: speedup neigh_hh_init()Eric Dumazet2-40/+63
When a new dst is used to send a frame, neigh_resolve_output() tries to associate an struct hh_cache to this dst, calling neigh_hh_init() with the neigh rwlock write locked. Most of the time, hh_cache is already known and linked into neighbour, so we find it and increment its refcount. This patch changes the logic so that we call neigh_hh_init() with neighbour lock read locked only, so that fast path can be run in parallel by concurrent cpus. This brings part of the speedup we got with commit c7d4426a98a5f (introduce DST_NOCACHE flag) for non cached dsts, even for cached ones, removing one of the contention point that routers hit on multiqueue enabled machines. Further improvements would need to use a seqlock instead of an rwlock to protect neigh->ha[], to not dirty neigh too often and remove two atomic ops.

2010-10-09Phonet: cleanup pipe enable socket optionRémi Denis-Courmont1-42/+30
The current code works like this: int garbage, status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* disable pipe */ setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len); ...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option, before Linux 2.6.37 gets out: int status; socklen_t len = sizeof(status); /* enable pipe */ status = 1; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* disable pipe */ status = 0; setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status)); /* get status */ getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len); This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.

Do not set num_rx_queues in netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() some drivers will increase the real_num_rx_queues later due to a feature changes or available interrupts increasing. By setting num_rx_queues here this ends up creating a cap on the number of rx queues available. For example the ixgbe driver sets the max number of queues it intends to use ever then sets the current number in use with the netif_set_num_{rx|tx}_queues calls. With the current implementation the number of rx queues gets limited so when a feature such as DCB or FCoE is enabled the queues are no longer available. kobjects will only be allocated for real_num_rx_queues so the waste in memory is minimal.

(no more read_lock()/read_unlock() on tbl->lock) struct neighbour gets an additional rcu_head field and is freed after an RCU grace period.

This can cause errors since the unlinking code can't currently deal with items that have already been unlinked.
