2005-08-11[NETPOLL]: fix initialization/NAPI raceMatt Mackall
This fixes a race during initialization with the NAPI softirq processing by using an RCU approach. This race was discovered when refill_skbs() was added to the setup code. Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-11[NETPOLL]: pre-fill skb poolIngo Molnar
we could do one thing (see the patch below): i think it would be useful to fill up the netlogging skb queue straight at initialization time. Especially if netpoll is used for dumping alone, the system might not be in a situation to fill up the queue at the point of crash, so better be a bit more prepared and keep the pipeline filled.

2005-08-11[NETPOLL]: add retry timeoutMatt Mackall
Add limited retry logic to netpoll_send_skb Each time we attempt to send, decrement our per-device retry counter. On every successful send, we reset the counter. We delay 50us between attempts with up to 20000 retries for a total of 1 second. After we've exhausted our retries, subsequent failed attempts will try only once until reset by success.

2005-08-11[NETPOLL]: deadlock bugfixJeff Moyer
This fixes an obvious deadlock in the netpoll code. netpoll_rx takes the npinfo->rx_lock. netpoll_rx is also the only caller of arp_reply (through __netpoll_rx). As such, it is not necessary to take this lock. Signed-off-by: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-11[NETPOLL]: rx_flags bugfixJeff Moyer

2005-08-10[TCP]: Adjust {p,f}ackets_out correctly in tcp_retransmit_skb()Herbert Xu
Well I've only found one potential cause for the assertion failure in tcp_mark_head_lost. First of all, this can only occur if cnt > 1 since tp->packets_out is never zero here. If it did hit zero we'd have much bigger problems. So cnt is equal to fackets_out - reordering. Normally fackets_out is less than packets_out. The only reason I've found that might cause fackets_out to exceed packets_out is if tcp_fragment is called from tcp_retransmit_skb with a TSO skb and the current MSS is greater than the MSS stored in the TSO skb. This might occur as the result of an expiring dst entry. In that case, packets_out may decrease (line 1380-1381 in tcp_output.c). However, fackets_out is unchanged which means that it may in fact exceed packets_out. Previously tcp_retrans_try_collapse was the only place where packets_out can go down and it takes care of this by decrementing fackets_out. So we should make sure that fackets_out is reduced by an appropriate amount here as well. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-08-09[NET]: Fix memory leak in sys_{send,recv}msg() w/compatAndrew Morton
From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com> sendmsg()/recvmsg() syscalls from o32/n32 apps to a 64bit kernel will cause a kernel memory leak if iov_len > UIO_FASTIOV for each syscall! This is because both sys_sendmsg() and verify_compat_iovec() kmalloc a new iovec structure. Only the one from sys_sendmsg() is free'ed. I wrote a simple test program to confirm this after identifying the problem: http://davej.org/programs/testsendmsg.c Note that the below fix will break solaris_sendmsg()/solaris_recvmsg() as it also calls verify_compat_iovec() but expects it to malloc internally.

2005-08-08[PATCH] don't try to do any NAT on untracked connectionsHarald Welte
With the introduction of 'rustynat' in 2.6.11, the old tricks of preventing NAT of 'untracked' connections (e.g. NOTRACK target in 'raw' table) are no longer sufficient. The ip_conntrack_untracked.status |= IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK effectively prevents iteration of the 'nat' table, but doesn't prevent nat_packet() to be executed. Since nr_manips is gone in 'rustynat', nat_packet() now implicitly thinks that it has to do NAT on the packet. This patch fixes that problem by explicitly checking for ip_conntrack_untracked in ip_nat_fn(). Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

2005-08-04[PATCH] tcp: fix TSO cwnd caching bugHerbert Xu
tcp_write_xmit caches the cwnd value indirectly in cwnd_quota. When tcp_transmit_skb reduces the cwnd because of tcp_enter_cwr, the cached value becomes invalid. This patch ensures that the cwnd value is always reread after each tcp_transmit_skb call. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Cc: "David S.

2005-08-04[PATCH] tcp: fix TSO sizing bugsDavid S. Miller
MSS changes can be lost since we preemptively initialize the tso_segs count for an SKB before we %100 commit to sending it out. So, by the time we send it out, the tso_size information can be stale due to PMTU events. This mucks up all of the logic in our send engine, and can even result in the BUG() triggering in tcp_tso_should_defer(). Another problem we have is that we're storing the tp->mss_cache, not the SACK block normalized MSS, as the tso_size. That's wrong too. Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-07-31ieee80211: trim trailing whitespaceJeff Garzik
2005-07-30[NET] Fix too aggressive backoff in dst garbage collectionDenis Lunev
The bug is evident when it is seen once. dst gc timer was backed off, when gc queue is not empty. But this means that timer quickly backs off, if at least one destination remains in use. Normally, the bug is invisible, because adding new dst entry to queue cancels the backoff. But it shots deadly with destination cache overflow when new destinations are not released for long time f.e. after an interface goes down. The fix is to cancel backoff when something was released.

2005-07-30[NET]: fix oops after tunnel module unloadAlexey Kuznetsov
Tunnel modules used to obtain module refcount each time when some tunnel was created, which meaned that tunnel could be unloaded only after all the tunnels are deleted. Since killing old MOD_*_USE_COUNT macros this protection has gone. It is possible to return it back as module_get/put, but it looks more natural and practically useful to force destruction of all the child tunnels on module unload.

2005-07-27[PATCH] clean up inline static vs static inlineJesper Juhl
`gcc -W' likes to complain if the static keyword is not at the beginning of the declaration. This patch fixes all remaining occurrences of "inline static" up with "static inline" in the entire kernel tree (140 occurrences in 47 files). While making this change I came across a few lines with trailing whitespace that I also fixed up, I have also added or removed a blank line or two here and there, but there are no functional changes in the patch.

2005-07-21[NETFILTER]: ip_conntrack_expect_related must not free expectationRusty Russell
If a connection tracking helper tells us to expect a connection, and we're already expecting that connection, we simply free the one they gave us and return success. The problem is that NAT helpers (eg. FTP) have to allocate the expectation first (to see what port is available) then rewrite the packet. If that rewrite fails, they try to remove the expectation, but it was freed in ip_conntrack_expect_related. This is one example of a larger problem: having registered the expectation, the pointer is no longer ours to use. Reference counting is needed for ctnetlink anyway, so introduce it now. To have a single "put" path, we need to grab the reference to the connection on creation, rather than open-coding it in the caller.
