      net: usbnet: fix softirq storm on suspend · 85e87870
      Bjørn Mork authored
      Suspending an open usbnet device results in constant
      rescheduling of usbnet_bh.
      
      commit 65841fd5 "usbnet: handle remote wakeup asap"
      refactored the usbnet_bh code to allow sharing the
      urb allocate and submit code with usbnet_resume. In
      this process, a test for, and immediate return on,
      ENOLINK from rx_submit was unintentionally dropped.
      
      The rx queue will not grow if rx_submit fails,
      making usbnet_bh reschedule itself.  This results
      in a softirq storm if the error is persistent.
      rx_submit translates the usb_submit_urb error
      EHOSTUNREACH into ENOLINK, so this is an expected
      and persistent error for a suspended device. The
      old code tested for this condition and avoided
      rescheduling.  Putting this test back.

      sctp: Don't charge for data in sndbuf again when transmitting packet · 4c3a5bda
      Thomas Graf authored
      SCTP charges wmem_alloc via sctp_set_owner_w() in sctp_sendmsg() and via
      skb_set_owner_w() in sctp_packet_transmit(). If a sender runs out of
      sndbuf it will sleep in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() and expects to be waken up
      by __sctp_write_space().
      
      Buffer space charged via sctp_set_owner_w() is released in sctp_wfree()
      which calls __sctp_write_space() directly.
      
      Buffer space charged via skb_set_owner_w() is released via sock_wfree()
      which calls sk->sk_write_space() _if_ SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE is not set.
      sctp_endpoint_init() sets SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE on all sockets.
      
      Therefore if sctp_packet_transmit() manages to queue up more than sndbuf
      bytes, sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() will never be woken up again unless it is
      interrupted by a signal.
      
      This could be fixed by clearing the SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE flag but ...
      
      Charging for the data twice does not make sense in the first place, it
      leads to overcharging sndbuf by a factor 2. Therefore this patch only
      charges a single byte in wmem_alloc when transmitting an SCTP packet to
      ensure that the socket stays alive until the packet has been released.
      
      This means that control chunks are no longer accounted for in wmem_alloc
      which I believe is not a problem as skb->truesize will typically lead
      to overcharging anyway and thus compensates for any control overhead.

      by reenabling IRQ before calling ->poll, but it seems more
      problems are introduced after that patch:
      
      http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/stuff/IMG_20120824_122054.jpg
      http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=134563282530588&w=2
      
      So it is safe to fix be2net driver code directly.
      
      This patch reverts the offending commit and fixes be_poll() by
      avoid disabling BH there, this is okay because be_poll()
      can be called either by poll_napi() which already disables
      IRQ, or by net_rx_action() which already disables BH.
