- use adapter->num_vfs (and not the module param) to store the actual number of vfs created. Use the same variable to reflect SRIOV enable/disable state. So, drop the adapter->sriov_enabled field. - use for_all_vfs() macro in VF configuration code - drop the "vf_" prefix for the fields of be_vf_cfg; the prefix is redundant and removing it helps reduce line wrap Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The ethtool "-g" option is supposed to report the max queue length and user modified queue length for RX and TX queues. be2net doesn't support user modification of queue lengths. So, the correct values for these would be the max numbers. be2net incorrectly reports the queue used values for these fields.

This extension can be used to simulate special link layer characteristics. Simulate because packet data is not modified, only the calculation base is changed to delay a packet based on the original packet size and artificial cell information. packet_overhead can be used to simulate a link layer header compression scheme (e.g. set packet_overhead to -20) or with a positive packet_overhead value an additional MAC header can be simulated. It is also possible to "replace" the 14 byte Ethernet header with something else. cell_size and cell_overhead can be used to simulate link layer schemes, based on cells, like some TDMA schemes. Another application area are MAC schemes using a link layer fragmentation with a (small) header each. Cell size is the maximum amount of data bytes within one cell. Cell overhead is an additional variable to change the per-cell-overhead (e.g. 5 byte header per fragment). Example (5 kbit/s, 20 byte per packet overhead, cell-size 100 byte, per cell overhead 5 byte): tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 5kbit 20 100 5 Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch introduces kmem.tcp.max_usage_in_bytes file, living in the kmem_cgroup filesystem. The root cgroup will display a value equal to RESOURCE_MAX. This is to avoid introducing any locking schemes in the network paths when cgroups are not being actively used. All others, will see the maximum memory ever used by this cgroup.

This patch introduces kmem.tcp.failcnt file, living in the kmem_cgroup filesystem. Following the pattern in the other memcg resources, this files keeps a counter of how many times allocation failed due to limits being hit in this cgroup. The root cgroup will always show a failcnt of 0. Signed-off-by: Glauber Costa <glommer@parallels.com> Reviewed-by: Hiroyouki Kamezawa <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> CC: David S.

This patch uses the "tcp.limit_in_bytes" field of the kmem_cgroup to effectively control the amount of kernel memory pinned by a cgroup. This value is ignored in the root cgroup, and in all others, caps the value specified by the admin in the net namespaces' view of tcp_sysctl_mem. If namespaces are being used, the admin is allowed to set a value bigger than cgroup's maximum, the same way it is allowed to set pretty much unlimited values in a real box.

This patch allows each namespace to independently set up its levels for tcp memory pressure thresholds. This patch alone does not buy much: we need to make this values per group of process somehow.

This patch introduces memory pressure controls for the tcp protocol. It uses the generic socket memory pressure code introduced in earlier patches, and fills in the necessary data in cg_proto struct.

The goal of this work is to move the memory pressure tcp controls to a cgroup, instead of just relying on global conditions. To avoid excessive overhead in the network fast paths, the code that accounts allocated memory to a cgroup is hidden inside a static_branch(). This branch is patched out until the first non-root cgroup is created. So when nobody is using cgroups, even if it is mounted, no significant performance penalty should be seen. This patch handles the generic part of the code, and has nothing tcp-specific.

This patch replaces all uses of struct sock fields' memory_pressure, memory_allocated, sockets_allocated, and sysctl_mem to acessor macros. Those macros can either receive a socket argument, or a mem_cgroup argument, depending on the context they live in. Since we're only doing a macro wrapping here, no performance impact at all is expected in the case where we don't have cgroups disabled.

After a guest is live migrated, the xen-netfront driver emits a gratuitous ARP message, so that networking hardware on the target host's subnet can take notice, and public routing to the guest is re-established. However, if the packet appears on the backend interface before the backend is added to the target host's bridge, the packet is lost, and the migrated guest's peers become unable to talk to the guest. A sufficient two-parts condition to prevent the above is: (1) ensure that the backend only moves to Connected xenbus state after its hotplug scripts completed, ie. the netback interface got added to the bridge; and (2) ensure the frontend only queues the gARP when it sees the backend move to Connected. These two together provide complete ordering. Sub-condition (1) is already satisfied by commit f942dc25 in Linus' tree, based on commit 6b0b80ca7165 from [1]. In general, the full condition is sufficient, not necessary, because, according to [2], live migration has been working for a long time without satisfying sub-condition (2). However, after 6b0b80ca7165 was backported to the RHEL-5 host to ensure (1), (2) still proved necessary in the RHEL-6 guest. This patch intends to provide (2) for upstream. The Reviewed-by line comes from [3].

It looks like the regression was introduced between 20111202 and 20111205 (linux-next tree). Symptoms: connection to AP seem to be established, but no data goes though it in any way. Tested on intel 5300. Peek at the changes have shown that it looks like at least part of the code wasn't merged properly. It was originally committed into iwl_agn.c but code in question was moved to iwl-mac80211.c. This patch puts code in place and my card works again.
