In old kernels, NET_SKB_PAD was defined to 16. Then commit d6301d3d (net: Increase default NET_SKB_PAD to 32), and commit 18e8c134 (net: Increase NET_SKB_PAD to 64 bytes) increased it to 64. While first patch was governed by network stack needs, second was more driven by performance issues on current hardware. Real intent was to align data on a cache line boundary. So use max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES) instead of 64, to be more generic. Remove microblaze and powerpc own NET_SKB_PAD definitions. Thanks to Alexander Duyck and David Miller for their comments.

When syncookies are in effect, req->iif is left uninitialized. In case of e.g. link-local addresses the route lookup then fails and no syn-ack is sent. Rearrange things so ->iif is also initialized in the syncookie case. want_cookie can only be true when the isn was zero, thus move the want_cookie check into the "!isn" branch.

SKBs hold onto resources that can't be held indefinitely, such as TCP socket references and netfilter conntrack state. So if a packet is left in TX ring for a long time, there might be a TCP socket that cannot be closed and freed up. Current blackfin EMAC driver always reclaim and free used tx skbs in future transfers. The problem is that future transfer may not come as soon as possible. This patch start a timer after transfer to reclaim and free skb. There is nearly no performance drop with this patch. TX interrupt is not enabled because of a strange behavior of the Blackfin EMAC. If EMAC TX transfer control is turned on, endless TX interrupts are triggered no matter if TX DMA is enabled or not. Since DMA walks down the ring automatically, TX transfer control can't be turned off in the middle. The only way is to disable TX interrupt completely.

inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock. It's possible to make most lookups use RCU 1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer 2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup(). 3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is needed in case we fall in a loop. 4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert. 5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase refcount, even while we hold peers.lock. 6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash. 7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup. Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form. If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed again. 8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock 9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 -> 128 bytes) In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts & tcp_ts_stamp. These fields being manipulated only with refcnt > 0. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Fix the code that handles the error case when cnic_cm_abort() cannot proceed normally. We cannot just set the csk->state and we must go through cnic_ready_to_close() to handle all the conditions.

There are multiple problems with the newly added netpoll support: 1) Use-after-free on each netpoll packet. 2) Invoking unsafe code on netpoll/IRQ path. 3) Breaks when netpoll is enabled on the underlying device. This patch fixes all of these problems. In particular, we now allocate proper netpoll structures for each underlying device. We only allow netpoll to be enabled on the bridge when all the devices underneath it support netpoll. Once it is enabled, we do not allow non-netpoll devices to join the bridge (until netpoll is disabled again). This allows us to do away with the npinfo juggling that caused problem number 1. Incidentally this patch fixes number 2 by bypassing unsafe code such as multicast snooping and netfilter.

This patch adds the helper netpoll_tx_running for use within ndo_start_xmit. It returns non-zero if ndo_start_xmit is being invoked by netpoll, and zero otherwise. This is currently implemented by simply looking at the hardirq count. This is because for all non-netpoll uses of ndo_start_xmit, IRQs must be enabled while netpoll always disables IRQs before calling ndo_start_xmit.

As it stands, netpoll_setup and netpoll_cleanup have no locking protection whatsoever. So chaos ensures if two entities try to perform them on the same device. This patch adds RTNL to the equation. The code has been rearranged so that bits that do not need RTNL protection are now moved to the top of netpoll_setup. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

The use of RCU in netpoll is incorrect in a number of places: 1) The initial setting is lacking a write barrier. 2) The synchronize_rcu is in the wrong place. 3) Read barriers are missing. 4) Some places are even missing rcu_read_lock. 5) npinfo is zeroed after freeing. This patch fixes those issues. As most users are in BH context, this also converts the RCU usage to the BH variant. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Acked-by: Paul E.

This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time. Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label> When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

Try to reduce cache line contentions in peer management, to reduce IP defragmentation overhead. - peer_fake_node is marked 'const' to make sure its not modified. (tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y) - Group variables in two structures to reduce number of dirtied cache lines. One named "peers" for avl tree root, its number of entries, and associated lock. (candidate for RCU conversion) - A second one named "unused_peers" for unused list and its lock - Add a !list_empty() test in unlink_from_unused() to avoid taking lock when entry is not unused. - Use atomic_dec_and_lock() in inet_putpeer() to avoid taking lock in some cases.
