2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-23cgroups: net_cls as moduleBen Blum
Allows the net_cls cgroup subsystem to be compiled as a module This patch modifies net/sched/cls_cgroup.c to allow the net_cls subsystem to be optionally compiled as a module instead of builtin. The cgroup_subsys struct is moved around a bit to allow the subsys_id to be either declared as a compile-time constant by the cgroup_subsys.h include in cgroup.h, or, if it's a module, initialized within the struct by cgroup_load_subsys.

2009-11-15net: Optimize hard_start_xmit() return checkingJarek Poplawski
Recent changes in the TX error propagation require additional checking and masking of values returned from hard_start_xmit(), mainly to separate cases where skb was consumed. This aim can be simplified by changing the order of NETDEV_TX and NET_XMIT codes, because the latter are treated similarly to negative (ERRNO) values. After this change much simpler dev_xmit_complete() is also used in sch_direct_xmit(), so it is moved to netdevice.h. Additionally NET_RX definitions in netdevice.h are moved up from between TX codes to avoid confusion while reading the TX comment.

2009-11-13net: allow to propagate errors through ->ndo_hard_start_xmit()Patrick McHardy
Currently the ->ndo_hard_start_xmit() callbacks are only permitted to return one of the NETDEV_TX codes. This prevents any kind of error propagation for virtual devices, like queue congestion of the underlying device in case of layered devices, or unreachability in case of tunnels. This patches changes the NET_XMIT codes to avoid clashes with the NETDEV_TX codes and changes the two callers of dev_hard_start_xmit() to expect either errno codes, NET_XMIT codes or NETDEV_TX codes as return value. In case of qdisc_restart(), all non NETDEV_TX codes are mapped to NETDEV_TX_OK since no error propagation is possible when using qdiscs. In case of dev_queue_xmit(), the error is propagated upwards.

Grandchildren always get the first tx queue, which would give wrong qdisc_root etc. results (e.g. for sch_htb as child of sch_prio).

2009-09-09net_sched: fix estimator lock selection for mq child qdiscsPatrick McHardy
When new child qdiscs are attached to the mq qdisc, they are actually attached as root qdiscs to the device queues. The lock selection for new estimators incorrectly picks the root lock of the existing and to be replaced qdisc, which results in a use-after-free once the old qdisc has been destroyed. Mark mq qdisc instances with a new flag and treat qdiscs attached to mq as children similar to regular root qdiscs. Additionally prevent estimators from being attached to the mq qdisc itself since it only updates its byte and packet counters during dumps.

2009-09-06net_sched: add classful multiqueue dummy schedulerDavid S. Miller
This patch adds a classful dummy scheduler which can be used as root qdisc for multiqueue devices and exposes each device queue as a child class. This allows to address queues individually and graft them similar to regular classes. Additionally it presents an accumulated view of the statistics of all real root qdiscs in the dummy root. Two new callbacks are added to the qdisc_ops and qdisc_class_ops: - cl_ops->select_queue selects the tx queue number for new child classes. - qdisc_ops->attach() overrides root qdisc device grafting to attach non-shared qdiscs to the queues.

2009-09-06net_sched: reintroduce dev->qdisc for use by sch_apiPatrick McHardy
Currently the multiqueue integration with the qdisc API suffers from a few problems: - with multiple queues, all root qdiscs use the same handle. This means they can't be exposed to userspace in a backwards compatible fashion. - all API operations always refer to queue number 0. Newly created qdiscs are automatically shared between all queues, its not possible to address individual queues or restore multiqueue behaviour once a shared qdisc has been attached. - Dumps only contain the root qdisc of queue 0, in case of non-shared qdiscs this means the statistics are incomplete. This patch reintroduces dev->qdisc, which points to the (single) root qdisc from userspace's point of view. Currently it either points to the first (non-shared) default qdisc, or a qdisc shared between all queues. The following patches will introduce a classful dummy qdisc, which will be used as root qdisc and contain the per-queue qdiscs as children.

This code expects to run in softirq context, and bare hrtimers run in hw IRQ context. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2009-08-22pkt_sched: Convert qdisc_watchdog to tasklet_hrtimerDavid S. Miller
None of this stuff should execute in hw IRQ context, therefore use a tasklet_hrtimer so that it runs in softirq context. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2009-08-17net: restore gnet_stats_basic to previous definitionEric Dumazet
In 5e140dfc1fe87eae27846f193086724806b33c7d "net: reorder struct Qdisc for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to userland via netlink. Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason. Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land, using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic) Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.
