All distributions enable it, therefore no significant body of users are even testing the driver with it disabled. And making NAPI configurable is heavily discouraged anyways. I left the MSI-X interrupt enabling thing in an "#if 0" block so hopefully someone can debug that and it can get re-enabled. Probably it was just one of the NVIDIA chipset MSI erratas that we work handle these days in the PCI quirks (see drivers/pci/quirks.c and stuff like nvenet_msi_disable()). Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 4b0b72f7 ( net: speedup udp receive path ) introduced a bug in skb_free_datagram_locked(). We should not skb_orphan() skb if we dont have the guarantee we are the last skb user, this might happen with MSG_PEEK concurrent users. To keep socket locked for the smallest period of time, we split consume_skb() logic, inlined in skb_free_datagram_locked() Reported-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Use correct bit positions in DM_SHARED_CTRL register for writes. Michael Planes recently encountered a 'KY-RS9600 USB-LAN converter', which came with a driver CD containing a Linux driver. This driver turns out to be a copy of dm9601.c with symbols renamed and my copyright stripped. That aside, it did contain 1 functional change in dm_write_shared_word(), and after checking the datasheet the original value was indeed wrong (read versus write bits). On Michaels HW, this change bumps receive speed from ~30KB/s to ~900KB/s. On other devices the difference is less spectacular, but still significant (~30%).

Frequently when using PPPoE with an interface MTU greater than 1500, the skb is likely to be non-linear. If the skb needs to be passed to pppd then the skb data must be read correctly. The previous commit fixes an issue with accidentally sending skbs to pppd based on an invalid read of the protocol type. When that error occurred pppd was reading invalid skb data too.

In ppp_input(), PPP_PROTO(skb) may refer to invalid data in the skb. If this happens and (proto >= 0xc000 || proto == PPP_CCPFRAG) then the packet is passed directly to pppd. This occurs frequently when using PPPoE with an interface MTU greater than 1500 because the skb is more likely to be non-linear. The next 2 bytes need to be pulled in ppp_input(). The pull of 2 bytes in ppp_receive_frame() has been removed as it is no longer required. Signed-off-by: Simon Arlott <simon@fire.lp0.eu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Per cpu variable softnet_data.total was shared between IRQ and SoftIRQ context without any protection. And enqueue_to_backlog should update the netdev_rx_stat of the target CPU. This patch renames softnet_data.total to softnet_data.processed: the number of packets processed in uppper levels(IP stacks). softnet_stat data is moved into softnet_data.

In commit 6be8ac2f ("[NET]: uninline skb_pull, de-bloats a lot") we uninlined skb_pull. But in some critical paths it makes sense to inline this thing and it helps performance significantly.

sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk->sk_sleep pointer, so we need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming packet. RCU conversion is pretty much needed : 1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer). [Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing] 2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in sock_alloc_inode(). 3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq" 4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct socket_wq" 5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk->sk_wq instead of sk->sk_sleep 6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside a rcu_read_lock() section. 7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to : - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks. - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) 8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well. 9) Exceptions : macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq" instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing. Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).

When we create the sctp_datamsg and fragment the user data, we know exactly if we are sending full segments or not and how they might be bundled. During this time, we can mark messages a Nagle capable or not. This makes the check at transmit time much simpler. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

Right now, if the highest tsn in the SACK doesn't change, we'll end up scanning the transmitted lists on the transports twice: once for locating the highest _new_ tsn, and once for actually tagging chunks as acked. This is a waste, since we can record the highest _new_ tsn at the same time as tagging chunks. Long ago this was not possible because we would try to mark chunks as missing at the same time as tagging them acked and this approach didn't work. Now that the two steps are separate, we can re-use the old approach. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

rwnd_press tracks the pressure on the recieve window. Every timer the receive buffer overlows, we truncate the receive window and then grow it back. However, if we don't track the cumulative presser, it's possible to reach a situation when receive buffer is empty, but rwnd stays truncated. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

The 'resent' bit is used to make sure that we don't update rto estimate based on retransmitted chunks. However, we already have the 'rto_pending' bit that we test when need to update rto, so 'resent' bit is just extra. Additionally, we currently have a bug in that we always set a 'resent' bit and thus rto estimate is only updated by Heartbeats. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

commit 4951feda0c60d1ef681f1a270afdd617924ab041 sctp: Do no select unconfirmed transports for retransmissions added code to make sure that we do not select unconfirmed paths for data transmission. This caused a problem when there are only 2 paths, 1 unconfirmed and 1 unreachable. In that case, the next retransmit path returned is NULL and that causes a kernel crash. The solution is to only change retransmit paths if we found one to use. Reported-by: Frank Schuster <frank.schuster01@web.de> Signed-off-b: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com>

In current implementation if ABORT chunk is received with T flag is set and zero verification tag in COOKIE-WAIT state, the ABORT chunk will be always accepted.
