We can now kill them synchronously with all of the
previous dev_deactivate() cures.
This makes netdev destruction and shutdown saner as
the qdiscs hold references to the device.

When we are destroying non-root qdiscs, we need to lock
the root of the qdisc tree not the the qdisc itself.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
|
|
The condition under which the previous qdisc has no more references
after we've attached &noop_qdisc is that both RUNNING and SCHED
are both seen clear while holding the root lock.
So just make specifically that check in the polling loop, instead
of this overly complex "check without then check with lock held"
sequence.

Change handling of the __QDISC_STATE_SCHED flag in net_tx_action() to
enable proper control in dev_deactivate(). Now, if this flag is seen
as unset under root_lock means a qdisc can't be netif_scheduled.

This new state lets dev_deactivate() mark a qdisc as having been
deactivated.
dev_queue_xmit() and ing_filter() check for this bit and do not
try to process the qdisc if the bit is set.
dev_deactivate() polls the qdisc after setting the bit, waiting
for both __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING and __QDISC_STATE_SCHED to clear.
This isn't perfect yet, but subsequent changesets will make it so.
This part is just one piece of the puzzle.

skb_alloc produces linear packets (using kmalloc()). That can fail,
so should we fall back to making paged skbs.
My original version of this patch always allocate paged skbs for big
packets. But that made performance drop from 8.4 seconds to 8.8
seconds on 1G lguest->Host TCP xmit. So now we only do that as a
fallback.

There's an skb_copy_datagram_iovec() to copy out of a paged skb, but
nothing the other way around (because we don't do that).
We want to allocate big skbs in tun.c, so let's add the function.
It's a carbon copy of skb_copy_datagram_iovec() with enough changes to
be annoying.

Add a TUNGETIFF interface so that userspace can query a
tun/tap descriptor for its name and flags.
This is needed because it is common for one app to create
a tap interface, exec another app and pass it the file
descriptor for the interface. Without TUNGETIFF the spawned
app has no way of detecting wheter the interface has e.g.
IFF_VNET_HDR set.

Now that the network stack can handle inbound packets with partial
checksums, we should no longer clobber the ip_summed field in the
loopback driver. This is because CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY implies that
the checksum field is actually valid which is not true for loopback
packets since it's only partial (and thus complemented).
This allows packets from lo to then be SNATed to an external source
while still preserving the checksum's validity.

skb_gso_segment didn't preserve some attributes in the original skb
such as the netfilter fields. This was harmless until they were used
which is the case for packets going through lo.
This patch makes it call __copy_skb_header which also picks up some
other missing attributes.

It hasn't been enabled for a long time and the generic GSO
engine is better documentation of what is expected of a
device implementing TSO.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
|

This patch enables TSO since the loopback device is naturally
capable of handling packets of any size. This also means that
we won't enable GSO on lo which is good until GSO is fixed to
preserve netfilter state as netfilter treats loopback packets
in a special way.

Ethtool stats are 64-bits in length. net_device_stats members are
unsigned long types. When gathering information for
a get_ethtool_stats call, the driver will call a driver-private,
inlined get_stat64() function, which returns an unsigned long value.
This call will inadvertently mask off the upper 32-bits of a stat on
32-bit machines.
This patch defines a new get_estat() inline function and modifies the
ESTAT_ADD() macro to use it.

The git commit 7c5026aa9b81dd45df8d3f4e0be73e485976a8b6 ("tg3: Add
link state reporting to UMP firmware") introduced code that waits for
previous firmware events to be serviced before attempting to submit a
new event. Unfortunately that patch contained a bug that cause the
driver to wait 2.5 seconds, rather than 2.5 milliseconds as intended.
This patch fixes that bug.
This bug revealed that not all firmware versions service driver events
though. Since we do not know which versions of the firmware do and don't
service these events, the driver needs some way to minimize the effects
of the delay. This patch solves the problem by recording a jiffies
timestamp when it submits an event to the hardware. If the jiffies
counter shows that 2.5 milliseconds have already passed, a wait is not
needed and the driver can proceed to submit a new event.

The ENABLE_ASF flag is set when DASH is enabled on the NIC, but DASH
does not run on the RX CPU. Instead it runs on the APE.
Consequently, the driver does not need to send "driver alive" updates

If the driver resets the chip while the APE is performing a register
access, that register access will never complete and the APE will hang
indefinitely. To prevent this race condition, the driver must acquire
an APE mutex before resetting the chip. The APE will not attempt a
register access until it acquires this lock.

Let me first state that disabling the route cache hash rebuild
should not be done without extensive analysis on the risk profile
and careful deliberation.
However, there are times when this can be done safely or for
testing. For example, when you have mechanisms for ensuring
that offending parties do not exist in your network.
This patch lets the user disable the rebuild if the interval is
set to zero. This also incidentally fixes a divide-by-zero error
with name-spaces.
In addition, this patch makes the effect of an interval change
immediate rather than it taking effect at the next rebuild as
is currently the case.

In certain cases when ASF or other management firmware is running, the
chip may be configured to always strip out the VLAN tag even when
VLAN acceleration is not enabled. This causes some VLAN tagged
packets to be received by the host stack without any knowledge that
the original packet was VLAN tagged.
We fix this by re-inserting the VLAN tag into the packet when necessary.
