2012-04-13net: Use cpu_chill() instead of cpu_relax()Thomas Gleixner
Retry loops on RT might loop forever when the modifying side was preempted. Use cpu_chill() instead of cpu_relax() to let the system make progress. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: stable-rt@vger.kernel.org
2012-04-13softirq: Check preemption after reenabling interruptsThomas Gleixner
raise_softirq_irqoff() disables interrupts and wakes the softirq daemon, but after reenabling interrupts there is no preemption check, so the execution of the softirq thread might be delayed arbitrarily. In principle we could add that check to local_irq_enable/restore, but that's overkill as the rasie_softirq_irqoff() sections are the only ones which show this behaviour.

2012-04-13ping-sysrq.patchCarsten Emde
There are (probably rare) situations when a system crashed and the system console becomes unresponsive but the network icmp layer still is alive. Wouldn't it be wonderful, if we then could submit a sysreq command via ping? This patch provides this facility. Please consult the updated documentation Documentation/sysrq.txt for details.

2012-04-13net: Avoid livelock in net_tx_action() on RTSteven Rostedt
qdisc_lock is taken w/o disabling interrupts or bottom halfs. So code holding a qdisc_lock() can be interrupted and softirqs can run on the return of interrupt in !RT. The spin_trylock() in net_tx_action() makes sure, that the softirq does not deadlock. When the lock can't be acquired q is requeued and the NET_TX softirq is raised. That causes the softirq to run over and over. That works in mainline as do_softirq() has a retry loop limit and leaves the softirq processing in the interrupt return path and schedules ksoftirqd. The task which holds qdisc_lock cannot be preempted, so the lock is released and either ksoftirqd or the next softirq in the return from interrupt path can proceed. Though it's a bit strange to actually run MAX_SOFTIRQ_RESTART (10) loops before it decides to bail out even if it's clear in the first iteration :) On RT all softirq processing is done in a FIFO thread and we don't have a loop limit, so ksoftirqd preempts the lock holder forever and unqueues and requeues until the reset button is hit. Due to the forced threading of ksoftirqd on RT we actually cannot deadlock on qdisc_lock because it's a "sleeping lock". So it's safe to replace the spin_trylock() with a spin_lock(). When contended, ksoftirqd is scheduled out and the lock holder can proceed.

2012-04-11tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx pathEric Dumazet
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non SG capable hardware. After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices) Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048) Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb (IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1 allocations. This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit. This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or any layer needing some tailroom) avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged. Reported-by: Marc MERLIN <marc@merlins.org> Tested-by: Marc MERLIN <marc@merlins.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-11net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroomEric Dumazet
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non SG capable hardware. Turns out part of the problem comes from pskb_expand_head() not using ksize() to get exact head size given by kmalloc(). Doing the same thing than __alloc_skb() allows more tailroom in skb and can prevent future reallocations. As a bonus, struct skb_shared_info becomes cache line aligned.

2012-04-11bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leavesHerbert Xu
As it stands the bridge IGMP snooping system will respond to group leave messages with queries for remaining membership. This is both unnecessary and undesirable. First of all any multicast routers present should be doing this rather than us. What's more the queries that we send may end up upsetting other multicast snooping swithces in the system that are buggy. In fact, we can simply remove the code that send these queries because the existing membership expiry mechanism doesn't rely on them anyway. So this patch simply removes all code associated with group queries in response to group leave messages. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-10tcp: fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() use of an unscaled RTT sampleNeal Cardwell
Fix a code path in tcp_rcv_rtt_update() that was comparing scaled and unscaled RTT samples. The intent in the code was to only use the 'm' measurement if it was a new minimum. However, since 'm' had not yet been shifted left 3 bits but 'new_sample' had, this comparison would nearly always succeed, leading us to erroneously set our receive-side RTT estimate to the 'm' sample when that sample could be nearly 8x too high to use. The overall effect is to often cause the receive-side RTT estimate to be significantly too large (up to 40% too large for brief periods in my tests).

Result is machines with low amount of memory have too small tcp_rmem[2] value and slow tcp receives : Per socket limit being 1/1024 of memory instead of 1/128 in old kernels, so rcv window is capped to small values.

It was reported that the Linux kernel sometimes logs: klogd: [2629147.402413] kernel BUG at net / netfilter / nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c: 447! klogd: [1072212.887368] kernel BUG at net / netfilter / nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c: 392 ipv4_get_l4proto() in nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv4.c and tcp_error() in nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c should catch malformed packets, so the errors at the indicated lines - TCP options parsing - should not happen. However, tcp_error() relies on the "dataoff" offset to the TCP header, calculated by ipv4_get_l4proto(). But ipv4_get_l4proto() does not check bogus ihl values in IPv4 packets, which then can slip through tcp_error() and get caught at the TCP options parsing routines. The patch fixes ipv4_get_l4proto() by invalidating packets with bogus ihl value. The patch closes netfilter bugzilla id 771.

Fix from Eric Dumazet. 11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't. Let the natural sequence generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE settings, guide the tcp_push() calls. Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch effectively into GSO/TSO clusters. From Eric Dumazet. 12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we cannot touch it after queueing it like that. Fixes from Eric Dumazet. 13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer to transmit the PPP frame. But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the TX queue right before returning from the transmit method. Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in particular things like the equalizers. Well behaved devices should only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case when it gets backlogged to the downstream device. David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until it's downstream can't take data any more. 14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver changes, re-add.

2012-04-05phonet: Check input from user before allocatingSasha Levin

2012-04-05tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() onceEric Dumazet
commit 2f533844242 (tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets) added a regression for splice() calls using SPLICE_F_MORE. We need to call tcp_flush() at the end of the last page processed in tcp_sendpages(), or else transmits can be deferred and future sends stall. Add a new internal flag, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, acting like MSG_MORE, but with different semantic. For all sendpage() providers, its a transparent change. Only sock_sendpage() and tcp_sendpages() can differentiate the two different flags provided by pipe_to_sendpage() Reported-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: H.K.

2012-04-05simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()Stephen Boyd
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when they want to support a custom read/write function op. This leads to a proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire tree. Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

2012-04-04sctp: Allow struct sctp_event_subscribe to grow without breaking binariesThomas Graf
getsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) performs a length check and returns an error if the user provides less bytes than the size of struct sctp_event_subscribe. Struct sctp_event_subscribe needs to be extended by an u8 for every new event or notification type that is added. This obviously makes getsockopt fail for binaries that are compiled against an older versions of <net/sctp/user.h> which do not contain all event types. This patch changes getsockopt behaviour to no longer return an error if not enough bytes are being provided by the user. Instead, it returns as much of sctp_event_subscribe as fits into the provided buffer. This leads to the new behavior that users see what they have been aware of at compile time. The setsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) API is already behaving like this. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Vlad Yasevich <vladislav.yasevich@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-03tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packetsEric Dumazet
vmsplice()/splice(pipe, socket) call do_tcp_sendpages() one page at a time, adding at most 4096 bytes to an skb. (assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096) The call to tcp_push() at the end of do_tcp_sendpages() forces an immediate xmit when pipe is not already filled, and tso_fragment() try to split these skb to MSS multiples. 4096 bytes are usually split in a skb with 2 MSS, and a remaining sub-mss skb (assuming MTU=1500) This makes slow start suboptimal because many small frames are sent to qdisc/driver layers instead of big ones (constrained by cwnd and packets in flight of course) In fact, applications using sendmsg() (adding an additional memory copy) instead of vmsplice()/splice()/sendfile() are a bit faster because of this anomaly, especially if serving small files in environments with large initial [c]wnd. Call tcp_push() only if MSG_MORE is not set in the flags parameter. This bit is automatically provided by splice() internals but for the last page, or on all pages if user specified SPLICE_F_MORE splice() flag. In some workloads, this can reduce number of sent logical packets by an order of magnitude, making zero-copy TCP actually faster than one-copy :) Reported-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: H.K.

2012-04-03net: fix /proc/net/dev regressionEric Dumazet
Commit f04565ddf52 (dev: use name hash for dev_seq_ops) added a second regression, as some devices are missing from /proc/net/dev if many devices are defined. When seq_file buffer is filled, the last ->next/show() method is canceled (pos value is reverted to value prior ->next() call) Problem is after above commit, we dont restart the lookup at right position in ->start() method. Fix this by removing the internal 'pos' pointer added in commit, since we need to use the 'loff_t *pos' provided by seq_file layer. This also reverts commit 5cac98dd0 (net: Fix corruption in /proc/*/net/dev_mcast), since its not needed anymore.

2012-04-01ipv6: Fix RTM_GETROUTE's interpretation of RTA_IIF to be consistent with ipv4Shmulik Ladkani
In IPv4, if an RTA_IIF attribute is specified within an RTM_GETROUTE message, then a route is searched as if a packet was received on the specified 'iif' interface. However in IPv6, RTA_IIF is not interpreted in the same way: 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' always calls 'ip6_route_output()', regardless the RTA_IIF attribute. As a result, in IPv6 there's no way to use RTM_GETROUTE in order to look for a route as if a packet was received on a specific interface. Fix 'inet6_rtm_getroute()' so that RTA_IIF is interpreted as "lookup a route as if a packet was received on the specified interface", similar to IPv4's 'inet_rtm_getroute()' interpretation.
