2008-07-10xfrm: Add a XFRM_STATE_AF_UNSPEC flag to xfrm_usersa_infoSteffen Klassert
Add a XFRM_STATE_AF_UNSPEC flag to handle the AF_UNSPEC behavior for the selector family. Userspace applications can set this flag to leave the selector family of the xfrm_state unspecified. This can be used to to handle inter family tunnels if the selector is not set from userspace.

2008-07-08netdev: Move _xmit_lock and xmit_lock_owner into netdev_queue.David S. Miller

2008-07-08netdev: Make netif_schedule() routines work with netdev_queue objects.David S. Miller
Only plain netif_schedule() remains taking a net_device, mostly as a compatability item while we transition the rest of these interfaces. Everything else calls netif_schedule_queue() or __netif_schedule(), both of which take a netdev_queue pointer. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-07-08netdev: Kill qdisc_ingress, use netdev->rx_queue.qdisc instead.David S. Miller
Now that our qdisc management is bi-directional, per-queue, and fully orthogonal, there is no reason to have a special ingress qdisc pointer in struct net_device. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-08netdev: Move rest of qdisc state into struct netdev_queueDavid S. Miller

2008-07-08netdev: The ingress_lock member is no longer needed.David S. Miller
Every qdisc is assosciated with a queue, and in the case of ingress qdiscs that will now be netdev->rx_queue so using that queue's lock is the thing to do. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-08netdev: Move queue_lock into struct netdev_queue.David S. Miller
The lock is now an attribute of the device queue. One thing to notice is that "suspicious" places emerge which will need specific training about multiple queue handling. They are so marked with explicit "netdev->rx_queue" and "netdev->tx_queue" references. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-08netdev: Create netdev_queue abstraction.David S. Miller
A netdev_queue is an entity managed by a qdisc. Currently there is one RX and one TX queue, and a netdev_queue merely contains a backpointer to the net_device. The Qdisc struct is augmented with a netdev_queue pointer as well. Eventually the 'dev' Qdisc member will go away and we will have the resulting hierarchy: net_device --> netdev_queue --> Qdisc Also, qdisc_alloc() and qdisc_create_dflt() now take a netdev_queue pointer argument.

2008-07-08vlan: avoid header copying and linearisation where possiblePatrick McHardy
- vlan_dev_reorder_header() is only called on the receive path after calling skb_share_check(). This means we can use skb_cow() since all we need is a writable header. - vlan_dev_hard_header() includes a work-around for some apparently broken out of tree MPLS code. The hard_header functions can expect to always have a headroom of at least there own hard_header_len available, so the reallocation check is unnecessary. - __vlan_put_tag() can use skb_cow_head() to avoid the skb_unshare() copy when the header is writable.

2008-07-08vlan: TCI related type and naming cleanupsPatrick McHardy
The VLAN code contains multiple spots that use tag, id and tci as identifiers for arguments and variables incorrectly and they actually contain or are expected to contain something different. Additionally types are used inconsistently (unsigned short vs u16) and identifiers are sometimes capitalized. - consistently use u16 for storing TCI, ID or QoS values - consistently use vlan_id and vlan_tci for storing the respective values - remove capitalization - add kdoc comment to netif_hwaccel_{rx,receive_skb} Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-07-08vlan: uninline __vlan_hwaccel_rxPatrick McHardy
The function is huge and included at least once in every VLAN acceleration capable driver. Uninline it; to avoid having drivers depend on the VLAN module, the function is always built in statically when VLAN is enabled. With all VLAN acceleration capable drivers that build on x86_64 enabled, this results in: text data bss dec hex filename 6515227 854044 343968 7713239 75b1d7 vmlinux.inlined 6505637 854044 343968 7703649 758c61 vmlinux.uninlined ---------------------------------------------------------- -9590 Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-07-08vlan: fix network_header/mac_header adjustmentsPatrick McHardy
Lennert Buytenhek points out that the VLAN code incorrectly adjusts skb->network_header to point in the middle of the VLAN header and additionally tries to adjust skb->mac_header without checking for validity. The network_header should not be touched at all since we're only adding headers in front of it, mac_header adjustments are not necessary at all.

2008-07-05vlan: Add GVRP supportPatrick McHardy
Add GVRP support for dynamically registering VLANs with switches. By default GVRP is disabled because we only support the applicant-only participant model, which means it should not be enabled on vlans that are members of a bridge. Since there is currently no way to cleanly determine that, the user is responsible for enabling it. The code is pretty small and low impact, its wrapped in a config option though because it depends on the GARP implementation and the STP core.

2008-07-03tun: Interface to query tun/tap features.Rusty Russell
The problem with introducing checksum offload and gso to tun is they need to set dev->features to enable GSO and/or checksumming, which is supposed to be done before register_netdevice(), ie. as part of TUNSETIFF. Unfortunately, TUNSETIFF has always just ignored flags it doesn't understand, so there's no good way of detecting whether the kernel supports new IFF_ flags. This patch implements a TUNGETFEATURES ioctl which returns all the valid IFF flags. It could be extended later to include other features. Here's an example program which uses it: #include <linux/if_tun.h> #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <sys/stat.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <err.h> #include <stdio.h> static struct { unsigned int flag; const char *name; } known_flags[] = { { IFF_TUN, "TUN" }, { IFF_TAP, "TAP" }, { IFF_NO_PI, "NO_PI" }, { IFF_ONE_QUEUE, "ONE_QUEUE" }, }; int main() { unsigned int features, i; int netfd = open("/dev/net/tun", O_RDWR); if (netfd < 0) err(1, "Opening /dev/net/tun"); if (ioctl(netfd, TUNGETFEATURES, &features) != 0) { printf("Kernel does not support TUNGETFEATURES, guessing\n"); features = (IFF_TUN|IFF_TAP|IFF_NO_PI|IFF_ONE_QUEUE); } printf("Available features are: "); for (i = 0; i < sizeof(known_flags)/sizeof(known_flags[0]); i++) { if (features & known_flags[i].flag) { features &= ~known_flags[i].flag; printf("%s ", known_flags[i].name); } } if (features) printf("(UNKNOWN %#x)", features); printf("\n"); return 0; } Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: Max Krasnyansky <maxk@qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-07-01Properly notify block layer of sync writesJens Axboe
fsync_buffers_list() and sync_dirty_buffer() both issue async writes and then immediately wait on them. Conceptually, that makes them sync writes and we should treat them as such so that the IO schedulers can handle them appropriately. This patch fixes a write starvation issue that Lin Ming reported, where xx is stuck for more than 2 minutes because of a large number of synchronous IO in the system: INFO: task kjournald:20558 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
