2008-03-07mac80211: adding mac80211_tx_control_flags and HT flagsRon Rindjunsky
This patch makes enum from the defines previously dwelled inside ieee80211_tx_control for better readability. The patch also addes HT flags, for 802.11n drivers: - IEEE80211_TXCTL_OFDM_HT: request low-level driver to use HT OFDM rates - IEEE80211_TXCTL_GREEN_FIELD: use green field protection - IEEE80211_TXCTL_DUP_DATA: duplicate data on both 20 Mhz channels - IEEE80211_TXCTL_40_MHZ_WIDTH: send this frame in 40Mhz width - IEEE80211_TXCTL_SHORT_GI: send this frame with short guard interval Tx command can be a combination of any of these flags, along with bitrate represented by ieee80211_rate. this will allow legacy drivers to switch easily to any 11n rate representation.

2008-03-06[UDP]: Revert udplite and code split.David S. Miller
This reverts commit db1ed684f6c430c4cdad67d058688b8a1b5e607c ("[IPV6] UDP: Rename IPv6 UDP files."), commit 8be8af8fa4405652e6c0797db5465a4be8afb998 ("[IPV4] UDP: Move IPv4-specific bits to other file.") and commit e898d4db2749c6052072e9bc4448e396cbdeb06a ("[UDP]: Allow users to configure UDP-Lite."). First, udplite is of such small cost, and it is a core protocol just like TCP and normal UDP are. We spent enormous amounts of effort to make udplite share as much code with core UDP as possible. All of that work is less valuable if we're just going to slap a config option on udplite support. It is also causing build failures, as reported on linux-next, showing that the changeset was not tested very well. In fact, this is the second build failure resulting from the udplite change. Finally, the config options provided was a bool, instead of a modular option. Meaning the udplite code does not even get build tested by allmodconfig builds, and furthermore the user is not presented with a reasonable modular build option which is particularly needed by distribution vendors.

2008-03-04[TCP]: Improve ipv4 established hash function.David S. Miller
If all of the entropy is in the local and foreign addresses, but xor'ing together would cancel out that entropy, the current hash performs poorly. Suggested by Cosmin Ratiu: Basically, the situation is as follows: There is a client machine and a server machine. Both create 15000 virtual interfaces, open up a socket for each pair of interfaces and do SIP traffic. By profiling I noticed that there is a lot of time spent walking the established hash chains with this particular setup. The addresses were distributed like this: client interfaces were 198.18.0.1/16 with increments of 1 and server interfaces were 198.18.128.1/16 with increments of 1. As I said, there were 15000 interfaces. Source and destination ports were 5060 for each connection. So in this case, ports don't matter for hashing purposes, and the bits from the address pairs used cancel each other, meaning there are no differences in the whole lot of pairs, so they all end up in the same hash chain.

2008-03-03[NETNS][IPV6] ip6_fib - gc timer per namespaceDaniel Lezcano

2008-03-03[NETNS][IPV6] ip6_fib - add net to gc timer parameterDaniel Lezcano
The fib tables are now relative to the network namespace. When the garbage collector timer expires, we must have a network namespace parameter in order to retrieve the tables. For now this is the init_net, but we should be able to have a timer per namespace and use the timer callback parameter to pass the network namespace from the expired timer. The timer callback, fib6_run_gc, is actually used to be called synchronously by some functions and asynchronously when the timer expires. When the timer expires, the delay specified for fib6_run_gc parameter is always zero. So, I changed fib6_run_gc to not be a timer callback but a function called by the timer callback and I added a timer callback where its work is just to retrieve from the data arg of the timer the network namespace and call fib6_run_gc with zero expiring time and the network namespace parameters. That makes the code cleaner for the fib6_run_gc callers. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S.
