2006-05-24[PATCH] ibmveth change buffer pools dynamicallySantiago Leon
This patch provides a sysfs interface to change some properties of the ibmveth buffer pools (size of the buffers, number of buffers per pool, and whether a pool is active). Ethernet drivers use ethtool to provide this type of functionality. However, the buffers in the ibmveth driver can have an arbitrary size (not only regular, mini, and jumbo which are the only sizes that ethtool can change), and also ibmveth can have an arbitrary number of buffer pools Under heavy load we have seen dropped packets which obviously kills TCP performance. We have created several fixes that mitigate this issue, but we definitely need a way of changing the number of buffers for an adapter dynamically. Also, changing the size of the buffers allows users to change the MTU to something big (bigger than a jumbo frame) greatly improving performance on partition to partition transfers. The patch creates directories pool1...pool4 in the device directory in sysfs, each with files: num, size, and active (which default to the values in the mainline version). Comments and suggestions are welcome... -- Santiago A. Leon Power Linux Development IBM Linux Technology Center Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

2006-05-23[BRIDGE]: need to ref count the LLC sapStephen Hemminger
Bridge will OOPS on removal if other application has the SAP open. The bridge SAP might be shared with other usages, so need to do reference counting on module removal rather than explicit close/delete. Since packet might arrive after or during removal, need to clear the receive function handle, so LLC only hands it to user (if any).

2006-05-23[PATCH] blk: fix gendisk->in_flight accounting during barrier sequenceJens Axboe
While executing barrrier sequence, the bar_rq which carries actual write was accounted as normal IO on completion, while it wasn't on queueing. This caused gendisk->in_flight to be decremented by 1 after each barrier thus messed up statistics. This patch makes bar_rq not accounted as normal IO. As the containing barrier request as a whole is accounted, part of it shouldn't be.

2006-05-23[PATCH] md: fix possible oops when starting a raid0 arrayNeilBrown
This loop that sets up the hash_table has problems. Careful examination will show that the last time through, everything but the first line is pointless. This is because all it does is change 'cur' and 'size' and neither of these are used after the loop. This should ring warning bells... That last time through the loop, size += conf->strip_zone[cur].size can index off the end of the strip_zone array. Depending on what it finds there, it might exit the loop cleanly, or it might spin going further and further beyond the array until it hits an unmapped address. This patch rearranges the code so that the last, pointless, iteration of the loop never happens. i.e. the one statement of the last loop that is needed is moved the the end of the previous loop - or to before the loop starts - and the loop counter starts from 1 instead of 0.

2006-05-23[SPARC64]: Respect gfp_t argument to dma_alloc_coherent().David S. Miller
Using asm-generic/dma-mapping.h does not work because pushing the call down to pci_alloc_coherent() causes the gfp_t argument of dma_alloc_coherent() to be ignored. Fix this by implementing things directly, and adding a gfp_t argument we can use in the internal call down to the PCI DMA implementation of pci_alloc_coherent(). This fixes massive memory corruption when using the sound driver layer, which passes things like __GFP_COMP down into these routines and (correctly) expects that to work. Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-05-22[NETFILTER]: SNMP NAT: fix memory corruptionPatrick McHardy
Fix memory corruption caused by snmp_trap_decode: - When snmp_trap_decode fails before the id and address are allocated, the pointers contain random memory, but are freed by the caller (snmp_parse_mangle). - When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating just the ID, it tries to free both address and ID, but the address pointer still contains random memory. The caller frees both ID and random memory again. - When snmp_trap_decode fails after allocating both, it frees both, and the callers frees both again. The corruption can be triggered remotely when the ip_nat_snmp_basic module is loaded and traffic on port 161 or 162 is NATed. Found by multiple testcases of the trap-app and trap-enc groups of the PROTOS c06-snmpv1 testsuite. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
