2006-05-16[PKT_SCHED]: Potential jiffy wrap bug in dev_watchdog().Stephen Hemminger
There is a potential jiffy wraparound bug in the transmit watchdog that is easily avoided by using time_after(). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-03-20[NET]: dev_put/dev_hold cleanupStephen Hemminger
Get rid of the old __dev_put macro that is just a hold over from pre 2.6 kernel. And turn dev_hold into an inline instead of a macro. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-08-23[PKT_SCHED]: Fix missing qdisc_destroy() in qdisc_create_dflt()Thomas Graf
qdisc_create_dflt() is missing to destroy the newly allocated default qdisc if the initialization fails resulting in leaks of all kinds. The only caller in mainline which may trigger this bug is sch_tbf.c in tbf_create_dflt_qdisc(). Note: qdisc_create_dflt() doesn't fulfill the official locking requirements of qdisc_destroy() but since the qdisc could never be seen by the outside world this doesn't matter and it can stay as-is until the locking of pkt_sched is cleaned up.

2005-07-18[PKT_SCHED]: Reduce branch mispredictions in pfifo_fast_dequeueThomas Graf
The current call to __qdisc_dequeue_head leads to a branch misprediction for every loop iteration, the fact that the most common priority is 2 makes this even worse. This issue has been brought up by Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> but unlike his solution which was to manually unroll the loop, this approach preserves the possibility to increase the number of bands at compile time.

2005-07-05[PKT_SCHED]: Cleanup qdisc creation and alignment macrosThomas Graf
Adds qdisc_alloc() to share code between qdisc_create() and qdisc_create_dflt(). Hides the qdisc alignment behind macros and makes use of them. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-06-18[PKT_SCHED]: Cleanup pfifo_fast qdisc and remove unnecessary codeThomas Graf
Removes the skb trimming code which is not needed since we never touch the skb upon failure. Removes unnecessary initializers, and simplifies the code a bit. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-06-18[PKT_SCHED]: Add and use prio2list() in the pfifo_fast qdiscThomas Graf
prio2list() returns the relevant sk_buff_head for the band specified by the priority for a given skb. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-06-18[PKT_SCHED]: Transform pfifo_fast to use generic queue management interfaceThomas Graf
Gives pfifo_fast a byte based backlog. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-05-03[PKT_SCHED]: netetm: trap infinite loop hange on qlen underflowStephen Hemminger
Due to bugs in netem (fixed by later patches), it is possible to get qdisc qlen to go negative. If this happens the CPU ends up spinning forever in qdisc_run(). So add a BUG_ON() to trap it. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-05-03[NET]: Disable queueing when carrier is lost.Tommy S. Christensen
Some network drivers call netif_stop_queue() when detecting loss of carrier. This leads to packets being queued up at the qdisc level for an unbound period of time. In order to prevent this effect, the core networking stack will now cease to queue packets for any device, that is operationally down (i.e. the queue is flushed and disabled). Signed-off-by: Tommy S.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
