2007-04-26[NET]: Treat CHECKSUM_PARTIAL as CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARYHerbert Xu1-2/+1
When a transmitted packet is looped back directly, CHECKSUM_PARTIAL maps to the semantics of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Therefore we should treat it as such in the stack. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-04-26[NET]: Use csum_start offset instead of skb_transport_headerHerbert Xu1-0/+2
The skb transport pointer is currently used to specify the start of the checksum region for transmit checksum offload. Unfortunately, the same pointer is also used during receive side processing. This creates a problem when we want to retransmit a received packet with partial checksums since the skb transport pointer would be overwritten. This patch solves this problem by creating a new 16-bit csum_start offset value to replace the skb transport header for the purpose of checksums. This offset is calculated from skb->head so that it does not have to change when skb->data changes. No extra space is required since csum_offset itself fits within a 16-bit word so we can use the other 16 bits for csum_start. For backwards compatibility, just before we push a packet with partial checksums off into the device driver, we set the skb transport header to what it would have been under the old scheme.

2007-03-17[IPV6]: ipv6_fl_socklist is inadvertently shared.Masayuki Nakagawa1-0/+1
The ipv6_fl_socklist from listening socket is inadvertently shared with new socket created for connection. This leads to a variety of interesting, but fatal, bugs. For example, removing one of the sockets may lead to the other socket's encountering a page fault when the now freed list is referenced. The fix is to not share the flow label list with the new socket. Signed-off-by: Masayuki Nakagawa <nakagawa.msy@ncos.nec.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-12-03[TCP/DCCP]: Introduce net_xmit_evalGerrit Renker1-2/+1
Throughout the TCP/DCCP (and tunnelling) code, it often happens that the return code of a transmit function needs to be tested against NET_XMIT_CN which is a value that does not indicate a strict error condition. This patch uses a macro for these recurring situations which is consistent with the already existing macro net_xmit_errno, saving on duplicated code.

2006-12-03[NET]: Size listen hash tables using backlog hintEric Dumazet1-1/+1
We currently allocate a fixed size (TCP_SYNQ_HSIZE=512) slots hash table for each LISTEN socket, regardless of various parameters (listen backlog for example) On x86_64, this means order-1 allocations (might fail), even for 'small' sockets, expecting few connections. On the contrary, a huge server wanting a backlog of 50000 is slowed down a bit because of this fixed limit. This patch makes the sizing of listen hash table a dynamic parameter, depending of : - net.core.somaxconn tunable (default is 128) - net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog tunable (default : 256, 1024 or 128) - backlog value given by user application (2nd parameter of listen()) For large allocations (bigger than PAGE_SIZE), we use vmalloc() instead of kmalloc(). We still limit memory allocation with the two existing tunables (somaxconn & tcp_max_syn_backlog). So for standard setups, this patch actually reduce RAM usage.

2006-08-27[IPV6]: Segmentation offload not set correctly on TCP childrenStephen Hemminger1-1/+1
TCP over IPV6 would incorrectly inherit the GSO settings. This would cause kernel to send Tcp Segmentation Offload packets for IPV6 data to devices that can't handle it. It caused the sky2 driver to lock http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7050 and the e1000 would generate bogus packets.

2006-08-03[IPV6]: Audit all ip6_dst_lookup/ip6_dst_store callsHerbert Xu1-2/+2
The current users of ip6_dst_lookup can be divided into two classes: 1) The caller holds no locks and is in user-context (UDP). 2) The caller does not want to lookup the dst cache at all. The second class covers everyone except UDP because most people do the cache lookup directly before calling ip6_dst_lookup. This patch adds ip6_sk_dst_lookup for the first class. Similarly ip6_dst_store users can be divded into those that need to take the socket dst lock and those that don't. This patch adds __ip6_dst_store for those (everyone except UDP/datagram) that don't need an extra lock. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-07-01[IPV6]: Added GSO support for TCPv6Herbert Xu1-4/+2
This patch adds GSO support for IPv6 and TCPv6. This is based on a patch by Ananda Raju <Ananda.Raju@neterion.com>. His original description is: This patch enables TSO over IPv6. Currently Linux network stacks restricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from "dev->features". This patch will remove this restriction. This patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used to check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO over IPv6 then we don't clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the TCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6 will set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in "dev->features" along with NETIF_F_TSO. In case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get cleared from "dev->features". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don't get TSO packets created by TCP layer. SKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet. SKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature. UFO is supported over IPv6 also The following table shows there is significant improvement in throughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo. -------------------------------------------------- | | 1500 | 9600 | | ------------------|-------------------| | | thru CPU | thru CPU | -------------------------------------------------- | TSO OFF | 2.00 5.5% id | 5.66 20.0% id | -------------------------------------------------- | TSO ON | 2.63 78.0 id | 5.67 39.0% id | -------------------------------------------------- Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

While debugging a TCP server hang issue, we noticed that currently there is no way for a user to get the acceptq backlog value for a TCP listen socket. All the standard networking utilities that display socket info like netstat, ss and /proc/net/tcp have 2 fields called rx_queue and tx_queue. These fields do not mean much for listening sockets.

2006-02-01[IPV6] tcp_v6_send_synack: release the destinationEric W. Biederman1-0/+1
This patch fix dst reference counting in tcp_v6_send_synack Analysis: Currently tcp_v6_send_synack is never called with a dst entry so dst always comes in as NULL. ip6_dst_lookup calls ip6_route_output which calls dst_hold before it returns the dst entry. Neither xfrm_lookup nor tcp_make_synack consume the dst entry so we still have a dst_entry with a bumped refrence count at the end of this function. Therefore we need to call dst_release just before we return just like tcp_v4_send_synack does. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
