2009-01-27net: Get rid of by-hand TX queue hashing.David S. Miller
We now only TX hash on pre-computed SKB properties. The thinking is: 1) High performance routing and firewalling setups will have a multiqueue capable card used for receive, and therefore would have RX queue recordings made into the SKB which can be used for the TX side hash. 2) Locally generated packets will have an attached socket and thus a valid sk->sk_hash to make use of.

2009-01-27net: Allow RX queue selection to seed TX queue hashing.David S. Miller
The idea is that drivers which implement multiqueue RX pre-seed the SKB by recording the RX queue selected by the hardware. If such a seed is found on TX, we'll use that to select the outgoing TX queue. This helps get more consistent load balancing on router and firewall loads. Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-01-26tcp: Fix length tcp_splice_data_recv passes to skb_splice_bits.Dimitris Michailidis
tcp_splice_data_recv has two lengths to consider: the len parameter it gets from tcp_read_sock, which specifies the amount of data in the skb, and rd_desc->count, which is the amount of data the splice caller still wants. Currently it passes just the latter to skb_splice_bits, which then splices min(rd_desc->count, skb->len - offset) bytes. Most of the time this is fine, except when the skb contains urgent data. In that case len goes only up to the urgent byte and is less than skb->len - offset. By ignoring len tcp_splice_data_recv may a) splice data tcp_read_sock told it not to, b) return to tcp_read_sock a value > len. Now, tcp_read_sock doesn't handle used > len and leaves the socket in a bad state (both sk_receive_queue and copied_seq are bad at that point) resulting in duplicated data and corruption. Fix by passing min(rd_desc->count, len) to skb_splice_bits. Signed-off-by: Dimitris Michailidis <dm@chelsio.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-01-26udp: optimize bind(0) if many ports are in useEric Dumazet
commit 9088c5609584684149f3fb5b065aa7f18dcb03ff (udp: Improve port randomization) introduced a regression for UDP bind() syscall to null port (getting a random port) in case lot of ports are already in use. This is because we do about 28000 scans of very long chains (220 sockets per chain), with many spin_lock_bh()/spin_unlock_bh() calls. Fix this using a bitmap (64 bytes for current value of UDP_HTABLE_SIZE) so that we scan chains at most once. Instead of 250 ms per bind() call, we get after patch a time of 2.9 ms Based on a report from Vitaly Mayatskikh Reported-by: Vitaly Mayatskikh <v.mayatskih@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Tested-by: Vitaly Mayatskikh <v.mayatskih@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 77ecaf2d5a8bfd548eed3f05c1c2e6573d5de4ba ("gianfar: Fix VLAN HW feature related frame/buffer size calculation") wrongly removed priv->vlgrp assignment, and now priv->vlgrp is always NULL. This patch fixes the issue, plus fixes following sparse warning introduced by the same commit: gianfar.c:1406:13: warning: context imbalance in 'gfar_vlan_rx_register' - wrong count at exit gfar_vlan_rx_register() checks for "if (old_grp == grp)" and tries to return w/o dropping the lock. According to net/8021q/vlan.c VLAN core issues rx_register() callback: 1. In register_vlan_dev() only on a newly created group; 2. In unregister_vlan_dev() only if the group becomes empty.

2009-01-26vlan: Export symbols as non GPL symbols.Ben Greear
In previous kernels, any kernel module could get access to the 'real-device' and the VLAN-ID for a particular VLAN. In more recent kernels, the code was restructured such that this is hard to do without accessing private .h files for any module that cannot use GPL-only symbols. Attached is a patch to once again allow non-GPL modules the ability to access the real-device and VLAN id for VLANs.
