      net: Add sendmmsg socket system call · 228e548e
      Anton Blanchard authored
      This patch adds a multiple message send syscall and is the send
      version of the existing recvmmsg syscall. This is heavily
      based on the patch by Arnaldo that added recvmmsg.
      
      I wrote a microbenchmark to test the performance gains of using
      this new syscall:
      
      http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/sendmmsg_test.c
      
      The test was run on a ppc64 box with a 10 Gbit network card. The
      benchmark can send both UDP and RAW ethernet packets.
      
      64B UDP
      
      batch   pkts/sec
      1       804570
      2       872800 (+ 8 %)
      4       916556 (+14 %)
      8       939712 (+17 %)
      16      952688 (+18 %)
      32      956448 (+19 %)
      64      964800 (+20 %)
      
      64B raw socket
      
      batch   pkts/sec
      1       1201449
      2       1350028 (+12 %)
      4       1461416 (+22 %)
      8       1513080 (+26 %)
      16      1541216 (+28 %)
      32      1553440 (+29 %)
      64      1557888 (+30 %)
      
      We see a 20% improvement in throughput on UDP send and 30%
      on raw socket send.

      can: fix SJA1000 dlc for RTR packets · 87e9af6c
      Kurt Van Dijck authored
      RTR frames do have a valid data length code on CAN.
      The driver for SJA1000 did not handle that situation properly.

      net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdevice · 1c5cae81
      Jiri Pirko authored
      Force dev_alloc_name() to be called from register_netdevice() by
      dev_get_valid_name(). That allows to remove multiple explicit
      dev_alloc_name() calls.
      
      The possibility to call dev_alloc_name in advance remains.
      
      This also fixes veth creation regresion caused by

      usbnet: runtime pm: fix out of memory · 75bd0cbd
      Ming Lei authored
      This patch makes use of the EVENT_DEV_OPEN flag introduced recently to
      fix one out of memory issue, which can be reproduced on omap3/4 based
      pandaboard/beagle XM easily with steps below:
      
      	- enable runtime pm
      	echo auto > /sys/devices/platform/usbhs-omap.0/ehci-omap.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.1/power/control
      
      	- ifconfig eth0 up
      
      	- then out of memroy happened, see [1] for kernel message.
      
      Follows my analysis:
      	- 'ifconfig eth0 up' brings eth0 out of suspend, and usbnet_resume
      	is called to schedule dev->bh, then rx urbs are submited to prepare for
      	recieving data;
      
      	- some usbnet devices will produce garbage rx packets flood if
      	info->reset is not called in usbnet_open.
      
      	- so there is no enough chances for usbnet_bh to handle and release
      	recieved skb buffers since many rx interrupts consumes cpu, so out of memory
      	for atomic allocation in rx_submit happened.
      
      This patch fixes the issue by simply not allowing schedule of usbnet_bh until device
      is opened.

      mac80211: Fix a warning due to skipping tailroom reservation for IV · eaef6a93
      Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan authored
      The devices that require IV generation in software need tailroom
      reservation  for ICVs used in TKIP or WEP encryptions.
      Currently, decision to skip the tailroom reservation in the tx
      path was taken only on whether driver wants MMIC to be generated
      in software or not. Following patch appends IV generation check for
      such decisions and fixes the following warning.
