2008-01-28[NET]: Eliminate duplicate copies of dst_discardHerbert Xu
We have a number of copies of dst_discard scattered around the place which all do the same thing, namely free a packet on the input or output paths. This patch deletes all of them except dst_discard and points all the users to it. The only non-trivial bit is decnet where it returns an error. However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions used in IPv4 and IPv6 which do not return errors. So they should either all return errors or all return zero. For now I've stuck with the majority and picked zero as the return value. It doesn't really matter in practice since few if any driver would react differently depending on a zero return value or NET_RX_DROP.

2008-01-28[IPV6]: Move nfheader_len into rt6_infoHerbert Xu
The dst member nfheader_len is only used by IPv6. It's also currently creating a rather ugly alignment hole in struct dst. Therefore this patch moves it from there into struct rt6_info. It also reorders the fields in rt6_info to minimize holes. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-01-28[IPV6]: Only set nfheader_len for top xfrm dstHerbert Xu
We only need to set nfheader_len in the top xfrm dst. This is because we only ever read the nfheader_len from the top xfrm dst. It is also easier to count nfheader_len as part of header_len which then lets us remove the ugly wrapper functions for incrementing and decrementing header lengths in xfrm6_policy.c.

2008-01-25IPoIB: improve IPv4/IPv6 to IB mcast mapping functionsRolf Manderscheid
An IPoIB subnet on an IB fabric that spans multiple IB subnets can't use link-local scope in multicast GIDs. The existing routines that map IP/IPv6 multicast addresses into IB link-level addresses hard-code the scope to link-local, and they also leave the partition key field uninitialised. This patch adds a parameter (the link-level broadcast address) to the mapping routines, allowing them to initialise both the scope and the P_Key appropriately, and fixes up the call sites. The next step will be to add a way to configure the scope for an IPoIB interface. Signed-off-by: Rolf Manderscheid <rvm@obsidianresearch.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2008-01-23[INET]: Fix truesize setting in ip_append_dataHerbert Xu
As it is ip_append_data only counts page fragments to the skb that allocated it. As such it means that the first skb gets hit with a 4K charge even though it might have only used a fraction of it while all subsequent skb's that use the same page gets away with no charge at all.

2008-01-20[IPV6] ROUTE: Make sending algorithm more friendly with RFC 4861.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki
We omit (or delay) sending NSes for known-to-unreachable routers (in NUD_FAILED state) according to RFC 4191 (Default Router Preferences and More-Specific Routes). But this is not fully compatible with RFC 4861 (Neighbor Discovery Protocol for IPv6), which does not remember unreachability of neighbors. So, let's avoid mixing sending algorithm of RFC 4191 and that of RFC 4861, and make the algorithm more friendly with RFC 4861 if RFC 4191 is disabled. Issue was found by IPv6 Ready Logo Core Self_Test 1.5.0b2 (by TAHI Project), and has been tracked down by Mitsuru Chinen <mitch@linux.vnet.ibm.com>.

2007-11-07[INET]: Remove per bucket rwlock in tcp/dccp ehash table.Eric Dumazet
As done two years ago on IP route cache table (commit 22c047ccbc68fa8f3fa57f0e8f906479a062c426) , we can avoid using one lock per hash bucket for the huge TCP/DCCP hash tables. On a typical x86_64 platform, this saves about 2MB or 4MB of ram, for litle performance differences. (we hit a different cache line for the rwlock, but then the bucket cache line have a better sharing factor among cpus, since we dirty it less often). For netstat or ss commands that want a full scan of hash table, we perform fewer memory accesses. Using a 'small' table of hashed rwlocks should be more than enough to provide correct SMP concurrency between different buckets, without using too much memory. Sizing of this table depends on num_possible_cpus() and various CONFIG settings. This patch provides some locking abstraction that may ease a future work using a different model for TCP/DCCP table.

2007-11-07[NET]: Define infrastructure to keep 'inuse' changes in an efficent SMP/NUMA ↵Eric Dumazet
way. "struct proto" currently uses an array stats[NR_CPUS] to track change on 'inuse' sockets per protocol. If NR_CPUS is big, this means we use a big memory area for this. Moreover, all this memory area is located on a single node on NUMA machines, increasing memory pressure on the boot node. In this patch, I tried to : - Keep a fast !CONFIG_SMP implementation - Keep a fast CONFIG_SMP implementation for often used protocols (tcp,udp,raw,...) - Introduce a NUMA efficient implementation Some helper macros are defined in include/net/sock.h These macros take into account CONFIG_SMP If a "struct proto" is declared without using DEFINE_PROTO_INUSE / REF_PROTO_INUSE macros, it will automatically use a default implementation, using a dynamically allocated percpu zone. This default implementation will be NUMA efficient, but might use 32/64 bytes per possible cpu because of current alloc_percpu() implementation. However it still should be better than previous implementation based on stats[NR_CPUS] field. When a "struct proto" is changed to use the new macros, we use a single static "int" percpu variable, lowering the memory and cpu costs, still preserving NUMA efficiency.

2007-10-30[NET]: Fix incorrect sg_mark_end() calls.David S. Miller
This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by commit 68e3f5dd4db62619fdbe520d36c9ebf62e672256 [CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry. The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end(). After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is what all of the callers would end up doing anyways. I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec(). Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to __sg_mark_end() as well. Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is what led to these bugs in the first place. The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable() and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h Signed-off-by: David S.
