To send commands on the write channel 8 buffers exist. If all 8 buffers are used, a wait is triggered on the write channel. When such buffer are freed, a wake_up is needed. This patch adds the missing wake_up in qeth_release_buffer(). This fix is especially important when running Communications Controller for Linux on System z. Signed-off-by:

For HS transport the maximum message size depends on the MTU-size of the HS-device bound to the AF_IUCV socket. This patch adds a getsockopt option MSGSIZE returning the maximum message size that can be handled for this AF_IUCV socket. Signed-off-by:

This patch saves the net_device in the iucv_sock structure during bind in order to fasten skb sending. In addition some other small improvements are made for HS transport: - error checking when sending skbs - locking changes in afiucv_hs_callback_txnotify - skb freeing in afiucv_hs_callback_txnotify And finally it contains code cleanup to get rid of iucv_skb_queue_purge.

The IP_UNICAST_IF feature is needed by the Wine project. This patch implements the feature by setting the outgoing interface in a similar fashion to that of IP_MULTICAST_IF. A separate option is needed to handle this feature since the existing options do not provide all of the characteristics required by IP_UNICAST_IF, a summary is provided below. SO_BINDTODEVICE: * SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative privileges, IP_UNICAST_IF does not. From reading some old mailing list articles my understanding is that SO_BINDTODEVICE requires administrative privileges because it can override the administrator's routing settings. * The SO_BINDTODEVICE option restricts both outbound and inbound traffic, IP_UNICAST_IF only impacts outbound traffic. IP_PKTINFO: * Since IP_PKTINFO and IP_UNICAST_IF are independent options, implementing IP_UNICAST_IF with IP_PKTINFO will likely break some applications. * Implementing IP_UNICAST_IF on top of IP_PKTINFO significantly complicates the Wine codebase and reduces the socket performance (doing this requires a lot of extra communication between the "server" and "user" layers). bind(): * bind() does not work on broadcast packets, IP_UNICAST_IF is specifically intended to work with broadcast packets. * Like SO_BINDTODEVICE, bind() restricts both outbound and inbound traffic.

Shlomo Pongratz reported GRO L2 header check was suited for Ethernet only, and failed on IB/ipoib traffic. He provided a patch faking a zeroed header to let GRO aggregates frames. Roland Dreier, Herbert Xu, and others suggested we change GRO L2 header check to be more generic, ie not assuming L2 header is 14 bytes, but taking into account hard_header_len. __napi_gro_receive() has special handling for the common case (Ethernet) to avoid a memcmp() call and use an inline optimized function instead.

Commit a0417fa3 ("net: Make qdisc_skb_cb upper size bound explicit.") made it possible for a netdev driver to use skb->cb between its header_ops.create method and its .ndo_start_xmit method. Use this in ipoib_hard_header() to stash away the LL address (GID + QPN), instead of the "ipoib_pseudoheader" hack. This allows IPoIB to stop lying about its hard_header_len, which will let us fix the L2 check for GRO. Signed-off-by:

The qdisc supports two operations - plug and unplug. When the qdisc receives a plug command via netlink request, packets arriving henceforth are buffered until a corresponding unplug command is received. Depending on the type of unplug command, the queue can be unplugged indefinitely or selectively. This qdisc can be used to implement output buffering, an essential functionality required for consistent recovery in checkpoint based fault-tolerance systems. Output buffering enables speculative execution by allowing generated network traffic to be rolled back. It is used to provide network protection for Xen Guests in the Remus high availability project, available as part of Xen. This module is generic enough to be used by any other system that wishes to add speculative execution and output buffering to its applications. This module was originally available in the linux 2.6.32 PV-OPS tree, used as dom0 for Xen. For more information, please refer to http://nss.cs.ubc.ca/remus/ and http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/Remus Changes in V3: * Removed debug output (printk) on queue overflow * Added TCQ_PLUG_RELEASE_INDEFINITE - that allows the user to use this qdisc, for simple plug/unplug operations. * Use of packet counts instead of pointers to keep track of the buffers in the queue.

The existing ITR code is broken and confusing, with lots of similarly-named variables that do different things. Additionally, after the driver carefully determines the optimal interrupt rate for the adapter, it then ignores it and always writes a fixed, suboptimal value. This patch refactors that code to make variable names more descriptive of what they actually do, and then actually writes the calculated result to the hardware. Preliminary testing shows that netperf TCP_STREAM tests goes from ~918Mbps to ~940Mbps, and TCP_RR goes from ~2k transactions/sec up to > 8k. Signed-off-by:

Removes code that alters the publication key of a name table entry that is being forcibly purged from TIPC's name table after contact with the publishing node has been lost. Current TIPC ensures that all defunct names are purged before re-establishing contact with a failed node. There used to be a risk that the publication might be accidentally deleted because it might be re-added to the name table before the purge operation was completed. But now there is no longer a need to ensure that the new key is different than the old one. Signed-off-by:

Modifies broadcast link so that an incoming fragmented message is not lost if reassembly cannot begin because there currently is no buffer big enough to hold the entire reassembled message. The broadcast link now ignores the first fragment completely, which causes the sending node to retransmit the first fragment so that reassembly can be re-attempted. Previously, the sender would have had no reason to retransmit the 1st fragment, so we would never have a chance to re-try the allocation. To do this cleanly without duplicaton, a new bclink_accept_pkt() function is introduced. Signed-off-by:
