Add a IFF_VNET_HDR flag. This uses the same ABI as virtio_net (ie. prepending struct virtio_net_hdr to packets) to indicate GSO and checksum information.

ethtool is useful for setting (some) device fields, but it's root-only. Finer feature control is available through a tun-specific ioctl.

The problem with introducing checksum offload and gso to tun is they need to set dev->features to enable GSO and/or checksumming, which is supposed to be done before register_netdevice(), ie. as part of TUNSETIFF. Unfortunately, TUNSETIFF has always just ignored flags it doesn't understand, so there's no good way of detecting whether the kernel supports new IFF_ flags. This patch implements a TUNGETFEATURES ioctl which returns all the valid IFF flags. It could be extended later to include other features. Here's an example program which uses it: #include <linux/if_tun.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <err.h> #include <stdio.h> static struct { unsigned int flag; const char *name; } known_flags[] = { { IFF_TUN, "TUN" }, { IFF_TAP, "TAP" }, { IFF_NO_PI, "NO_PI" }, { IFF_ONE_QUEUE, "ONE_QUEUE" }, }; int main() { unsigned int features, i; int netfd = open("/dev/net/tun", O_RDWR); if (netfd < 0) err(1, "Opening /dev/net/tun"); if (ioctl(netfd, TUNGETFEATURES, &features) != 0) { printf("Kernel does not support TUNGETFEATURES, guessing\n"); features = (IFF_TUN|IFF_TAP|IFF_NO_PI|IFF_ONE_QUEUE); } printf("Available features are: "); for (i = 0; i < sizeof(known_flags)/sizeof(known_flags[0]); i++) { if (features & known_flags[i].flag) { features &= ~known_flags[i].flag; printf("%s ", known_flags[i].name); } } if (features) printf("(UNKNOWN %#x)", features); printf("\n"); return 0; } Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: Max Krasnyansky <maxk@qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

There are some places in TCP that select one MIB index to bump snmp statistics like this: if (<something>) NET_INC_STATS_BH(<some_id>); else if (<something_else>) NET_INC_STATS_BH(<some_other_id>); ... else NET_INC_STATS_BH(<default_id>); or in a more tricky but still similar way. On the other hand, this NET_INC_STATS_BH is a camouflaged increment of percpu variable, which is not that small. Factoring those cases out de-bloats 235 bytes on non-preemptible i386 config and drives parts of the code into 80 columns. add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/7 up/down: 0/-235 (-235) function old new delta tcp_fastretrans_alert 1437 1424 -13 tcp_dsack_set 137 124 -13 tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue 690 676 -14 tcp_try_undo_recovery 283 265 -18 tcp_sacktag_write_queue 1550 1515 -35 tcp_update_reordering 162 106 -56 tcp_retransmit_timer 990 904 -86 Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch is the minimal amount of code needed to support wake-on-lan in platform mode properly (i.e. "ethtool -s eth0 wol g" is sufficient, no additional magic needed) for me. This is derived from David Brownells patch (http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2007-April/004691.html). However I decided to move the hook into pci-acpi.c since the other two pci hooks also live there and pci and acpi are the only users of the platform_enable_wakeup-hook. As a 'side-effect' this also makes wake on usb activity work for me and I had to disable usb wakeup (which is enabled by default) using the power/wakeup sysfs functionality ("echo disabled > ${sysfs_path_to_device}/power/wakeup"). (BTW I first thought the 'immediate reboot because of usb wake' effect is caused by the optical mouse generating a wake event, but it rather seems to be a problem with a flaky secondary usb host controller, which sees a connected device where nothing is attached) Signed-off-by: Tobias Diedrich <ranma+kernel@tdiedrich.de> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

We currently don't signal the kernel we that this device can wake the system. Call device_init_wakeup() to correct this. Without this device_can_wakeup and device_may_wakeup will return incorrect values. Together with the minimized acpi wakeup patch (6/4 ;)), which will follow in the next mail, this really makes wake-on-lan work for me as expected (i.e. "ethtool -s eth0 wol g" is sufficient, no additional magic needed).

The call to e1000_clean_tx_irq in e1000_netpoll can race with the call to e1000_clean_tx_irq in e1000_clean. With a small bit of tweaking to to netpoll_send_skb to simulate a system that was under extreme stress, I was able to reproduce these concurrent calls. This can result in multiple frees to the skbs on the tx ring buffer. Dropping this call from e1000_netpoll should be fine since we can rely on the calls in e1000_clean to do what is needed since napi will poll the hardware just after calling poll_controller.

There is a missing "!" in a conditional statement which is causing entries to be skipped when dumping the default IPv6 static label entries. This can be demonstrated by running the following: # netlabelctl unlbl add default address:::1 \ label:system_u:object_r:unlabeled_t:s0 # netlabelctl -p unlbl list ... you will notice that the entry for the IPv6 localhost address is not displayed but does exist (works correctly, causes collisions when attempting to add duplicate entries, etc.).

When an SKB cannot be chained to a session, the current code attempts to "restore" its ip_summed field from lro_mgr->ip_summed. However, lro_mgr->ip_summed does not hold the original value; in fact, we'd better not touch skb->ip_summed since it is not modified by the code in the path leading to a failure to chain it. Also use a cleaer comment to the describe the ip_summed field of struct net_lro_mgr.

The problem is that while we work w/o the inet_frags.lock even read-locked the secret rebuild timer may occur (on another CPU, since BHs are still disabled in the inet_frag_find) and change the rnd seed for ipv4/6 fragments. It was caused by my patch fd9e6354 ([INET]: Omit double hash calculations in xxx_frag_intern) late in the 2.6.24 kernel, so this should probably be queued to -stable.

I got a problem when I wanted to check if the kernel supports process event connector, and It seems there's no way to do this check. At best I can check if the kernel supports connector or not, by looking into /proc/net/netlink, or maybe checking the return value of bind() to see if it's ENOENT. So it would be useful to add /proc/net/connector to list all supported connectors: # cat /proc/net/connector Name ID connector 4294967295:4294967295 cn_proc 1:1 w1 3:1 Changelog: - fix memory leak: s/seq_release/single_release - use spin_lock_bh instead of spin_lock_irqsave Signed-off-by: Li Zefan <lizf@cn.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: Evgeniy Polyakov <johnpol@2ka.mipt.ru> Signed-off-by: David S.
