2007-10-15[INET]: Collect common frag sysctl variables togetherPavel Emelyanov
Some sysctl variables are used to tune the frag queues management and it will be useful to work with them in a common way in the future, so move them into one structure, moreover they are the same for all the frag management codes. I don't place them in the existing inet_frags object, introduced in the previous patch for two reasons: 1. to keep them in the __read_mostly section; 2. not to export the whole inet_frags objects outside.

2007-10-15[INET]: Collect frag queues management objects togetherPavel Emelyanov
There are some objects that are common in all the places which are used to keep track of frag queues, they are: * hash table * LRU list * rw lock * rnd number for hash function * the number of queues * the amount of memory occupied by queues * secret timer Move all this stuff into one structure (struct inet_frags) to make it possible use them uniformly in the future. Like with the previous patch this mostly consists of hunks like - write_lock(&ipfrag_lock); + write_lock(&ip4_frags.lock); To address the issue with exporting the number of queues and the amount of memory occupied by queues outside the .c file they are declared in, I introduce a couple of helpers.

2007-10-15[INET]: Move common fields from frag_queues in one place.Pavel Emelyanov
Introduce the struct inet_frag_queue in include/net/inet_frag.h file and place there all the common fields from three structs: * struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c * struct nf_ct_frag6_queue in nf_conntrack_reasm.c * struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c After this, replace these fields on appropriate structures with this structure instance and fix the users to use correct names i.e. hunks like - atomic_dec(&fq->refcnt); + atomic_dec(&fq->q.refcnt); (these occupy most of the patch) Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-10-15[TG3]: Fix performance regression on 5705.Michael Chan
A performance regression was introduced by the following commit: commit ee6a99b539a50b4e9398938a0a6d37f8bf911550 Author: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Date: Wed Jul 18 21:49:10 2007 -0700 [TG3]: Fix msi issue with kexec/kdump. In making that change, the PCI latency timer and cache line size registers were not restored after chip reset. On the 5705, the latency timer gets reset to 0 during chip reset and this causes very poor performance. Update version to 3.84.

2007-10-15[IPV4]: Uninline netfilter okfnsPatrick McHardy
Now that we don't pass double skb pointers to nf_hook_slow anymore, gcc can generate tail calls for some of the netfilter hook okfn invocations, so there is no need to inline the functions anymore. This caused huge code bloat since we ended up with one inlined version and one out-of-line version since we pass the address to nf_hook_slow.

2007-10-15[NET]: Avoid copying TCP packets unnecessarilyHerbert Xu
TCP packets all have writable heads, that is, even though it's cloned, it is writable up to the end of the TCP header. This patch makes skb_checksum_help aware of this fact by using skb_clone_writable and avoiding a copy for TCP. I've also modified the BUG_ON tests to be unsigned. The only case where this makes a difference is if csum_start points to a location before skb->data. Since skb->data should always include the header where the checksum field is (and all currently callers adhere to that), this change is safe and may uncover bugs later.

2007-10-15[NET]: Fix csum_start update in pskb_expand_headHerbert Xu
I got confused by the dual nature of the off variable in the function pskb_expand_head.

2007-10-15[IPV6]: Avoid skb_copy/pskb_copy/skb_realloc_headroom on inputHerbert Xu

2007-10-15[IPV6]: Make ipv6_frag_rcv return the same packetHerbert Xu
This patch implements the same change taht was done to ip_defrag. It makes ipv6_frag_rcv return the last packet received of a train of fragments rather than the head of that sequence.

2007-10-15[NETFILTER]: Replace sk_buff ** with sk_buff *Herbert Xu

2007-10-15[BRIDGE]: Unshare skb upon entryHerbert Xu
Due to the special location of the bridging hook, it should never see a shared packet anyway (certainly not with any in-kernel code). So it makes sense to unshare the skb there if necessary as that will greatly simplify the code below it (in particular, netfilter).

2007-10-15[NET]: Avoid unnecessary cloning for ingress filteringHerbert Xu

2007-10-15[IPV4]: Change ip_defrag to return an integerHerbert Xu

2007-10-15[IPV4]: Make ip_defrag return the same packetHerbert Xu
This patch is a bit of a hack. However it is worth it if you consider that this is the only reason why we have to carry around the struct sk_buff ** pointers in netfilter. It makes ip_defrag always return the packet that was given to it on input. It does this by cloning the packet and replacing its original contents with the head fragment if necessary.

2007-10-15[SKBUFF]: Add skb_morphHerbert Xu
This patch creates a new function skb_morph that's just like skb_clone except that it lets user provide the spare skb that will be overwritten by the one that's to be cloned. This will be used by IP fragment reassembly so that we get back the same skb that went in last (rather than the head skb that we get now which requires us to carry around double pointers all over the place).

2007-10-15[SKBUFF]: Merge common code between copy_skb_header and skb_cloneHerbert Xu
This patch creates a new function __copy_skb_header to merge the common code between copy_skb_header and skb_clone. Having two functions which are largely the same is a source of wasted labour as well as confusion. In fact the tc_verd stuff is almost certainly a bug since it's treated differently in skb_clone compared to the callers of copy_skb_header (skb_copy/pskb_copy/skb_copy_expand). I've kept that difference in tact with a comment added asking for clarification. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
