2009-12-03be2net: Changes to print fw command opcode when command is failed by controller.Ajit Khaparde
When a firmware command fails, only the failure codes are printed. It is difficult to co-relate this to the actual command that has failed. These changes will now print the command code that has failed.

2009-12-03net: Batch inet_twsk_purgeEric W. Biederman
This function walks the whole hashtable so there is no point in passing it a network namespace. Instead I purge all timewait sockets from dead network namespaces that I find. If the namespace is one of the once I am trying to purge I am guaranteed no new timewait sockets can be formed so this will get them all. If the namespace is one I am not acting for it might form a few more but I will call inet_twsk_purge again and shortly to get rid of them. In any even if the network namespace is dead timewait sockets are useless. Move the calls of inet_twsk_purge into batch_exit routines so that if I am killing a bunch of namespaces at once I will just call inet_twsk_purge once and save a lot of redundant unnecessary work. My simple 4k network namespace exit test the cleanup time dropped from roughly 8.2s to 1.6s. While the time spent running inet_twsk_purge fell to about 2ms. 1ms for ipv4 and 1ms for ipv6.

2009-12-03net: Use rcu lookups in inet_twsk_purge.Eric W. Biederman
While we are looking up entries to free there is no reason to take the lock in inet_twsk_purge. We have to drop locks and restart occassionally anyway so adding a few more in case we get on the wrong list because of a timewait move is no big deal. At the same time not taking the lock for long periods of time is much more polite to the rest of the users of the hash table. In my test configuration of killing 4k network namespaces this change causes 4k back to back runs of inet_twsk_purge on an empty hash table to go from roughly 20.7s to 3.3s, and the total time to destroy 4k network namespaces goes from roughly 44s to 3.3s.

2009-12-03net: Allow fib_rule_unregister to batchEric W. Biederman
Refactor the code so fib_rules_register always takes a template instead of the actual fib_rules_ops structure that will be used. This is required for network namespace support so 2 out of the 3 callers already do this, it allows the error handling to be made common, and it allows fib_rules_unregister to free the template for hte caller. Modify fib_rules_unregister to use call_rcu instead of syncrhonize_rcu to allw multiple namespaces to be cleaned up in the same rcu grace period. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2009-12-02net: Teach vlans to cleanup as a pernet subsystemEric W. Biederman
Take advantage of the fact that an explicit rtnl_kill_links is unnecessary (and skipping it improves batching), as network namespace exit calls dellink on all remaining virtual devices, and rtnl_link_unregister calls dellink on all outstanding devices in that network namespace. To do this we need to leave the vlan proc directories in place until after network device exit time, which is done by using register_pernet_subsys instead of register_pernet_device.

2009-12-02TCPCT part 1d: define TCP cookie option, extend existing struct'sWilliam Allen Simpson
Data structures are carefully composed to require minimal additions. For example, the struct tcp_options_received cookie_plus variable fits between existing 16-bit and 8-bit variables, requiring no additional space (taking alignment into consideration). There are no additions to tcp_request_sock, and only 1 pointer in tcp_sock. This is a significantly revised implementation of an earlier (year-old) patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original author (Adam Langley): http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586 The principle difference is using a TCP option to carry the cookie nonce, instead of a user configured offset in the data. This is more flexible and less subject to user configuration error. Such a cookie option has been suggested for many years, and is also useful without SYN data, allowing several related concepts to use the same extension option.

2009-12-02be2net: remove use of skb_dma_map/unmapAlexander Duyck
Due to the fact that skb_dma_map/unmap do not work correctly when a HW IOMMU is enabled it has been recommended to go about removing the calls from the network device drivers.

2009-12-02igbvf: remove skb_dma_map/unmap call from driversAlexander Duyck
This patch removes the skb_dma_map/unmap calls from the igbvf driver due to the fact that it does not play well with HW IOMMU when combined with transmitting cloned skbs.

2009-12-02igb: remove use of skb_dma_map from driverAlexander Duyck
This change removes skb_dma_map/unmap calls from the igb driver due to the fact that the call is incompatible with iommu enabled kernels. In order to prevent warnings about using the wrong unmap call I have added a mapped_as_page value to the buffer_info structure to track if the mapped region is a page or a buffer.

2009-12-02ixgbe: remove skb_dma_map/unmap calls from driverAlexander Duyck
This patch removes skb_dma_map/unmap calls from the ixgbe driver due to the fact that the calls don't work with HW IOMMU enabled systems. The problem is that multiple mappings will give different results when HW IOMMU is enabled and the skb_dma_map/unmap calls only have one location to store mappings.

2009-12-02ixgb: remove use of skb_dma_map from ixgbAlexander Duyck
skb_dma_map is incompatible with HW iommu due to the fact that multiple mappings can result in different results each time. For this reason it is best to just remove use of these function calls.

2009-12-02e1000e: remove use of skb_dma_map from e1000e driverAlexander Duyck
In testing we have found that skb_dma_map/unmap is incompatible with HW IOMMU due to the fact that multiple mappings will return different results. In order to correct this we need to remove skb_dma_map/unmap calls from the e1000e driver.

2009-12-02ip: update the description of rp_filter in ip-sysctl.txtShan Wei
The commit 27fed4175acf81ddd91d9a4ee2fd298981f60295 (ip: fix logic of reverse path filter sysctl) has changed the logic of rp_filter. The document about rp_filter is out of date. Now, setting conf/all/rp_filte with 0 can also enable source validation. Update the document according to the commit. Signed-off-by: Shan Wei <shanwei@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
