2008-07-17pkt_sched: Kill qdisc_lock_tree usage in cls_route.cDavid S. Miller
It just wants the qdisc tree to be synchronized, so grabbing qdisc_root_lock() is sufficient. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Remove qdisc_lock_tree usage in cls_api.cDavid S. Miller
It just wants the qdisc tree for the filter to be synchronized. So just BH lock qdisc_root_lock(q) instead. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Use per-queue locking in shutdown_scheduler_queue.David S. Miller
This eliminates another qdisc_lock_tree user. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Perform bulk of qdisc destruction in RCU.David S. Miller
This allows less strict control of access to the qdisc attached to a netdev_queue. It is even allowed to enqueue into a qdisc which is in the process of being destroyed. The RCU handler will toss out those packets. We will need this to handle sharing of a qdisc amongst multiple TX queues. In such a setup the lock has to be shared, so will be inside of the qdisc itself. At which point the netdev_queue lock cannot be used to hard synchronize access to the ->qdisc pointer. One operation we have to keep inside of qdisc_destroy() is the list deletion. It is the only piece of state visible after the RCU quiesce period, so we have to undo it early and under the appropriate locking. The operations in the RCU handler do not need any looking because the qdisc tree is no longer visible to anything at that point. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: dev_init_scheduler() does not need to lock qdisc tree.David S. Miller
We are registering the device, there is no way anyone can get at this object's qdiscs yet in any meaningful way. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Schedule qdiscs instead of netdev_queue.David S. Miller
When we have shared qdiscs, packets come out of the qdiscs for multiple transmit queues. Therefore it doesn't make any sense to schedule the transmit queue when logically we cannot know ahead of time the TX queue of the SKB that the qdisc->dequeue() will give us. Just for sanity I added a BUG check to make sure we never get into a state where the noop_qdisc is scheduled. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Add and use qdisc_root() and qdisc_root_lock().David S. Miller
When code wants to lock the qdisc tree state, the logic operation it's doing is locking the top-level qdisc that sits of the root of the netdev_queue. Add qdisc_root_lock() to represent this and convert the easiest cases. In order for this to work out in all cases, we have to hook up the noop_qdisc to a dummy netdev_queue. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Make QDISC_RUNNING a qdisc state.David S. Miller
Currently it is associated with a netdev_queue, but when we have qdisc sharing that no longer makes any sense. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Move gso_skb into Qdisc.David S. Miller
We liberate any dangling gso_skb during qdisc destruction. It really only matters for the root qdisc. But when qdiscs can be shared by multiple netdev_queue objects, we can't have the gso_skb in the netdev_queue any more. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17net: Implement simple sw TX hashing.David S. Miller
It just xor hashes over IPv4/IPv6 addresses and ports of transport. The only assumption it makes is that skb_network_header() is set correctly. With bug fixes from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17mac80211: Reimplement WME using ->select_queue().David S. Miller
The only behavior change is that we do not drop packets under any circumstances. If that is absolutely needed, we could easily add it back. With cleanups and help from Johannes Berg. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17netdev: Add netdev->select_queue() method.David S. Miller
Devices or device layers can set this to control the queue selection performed by dev_pick_tx(). This function runs under RCU protection, which allows overriding functions to have some way of synchronizing with things like dynamic ->real_num_tx_queues adjustments. This makes the spinlock prefetch in dev_queue_xmit() a little bit less effective, but that's the price right now for correctness. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17net: Use queue aware tests throughout.David S. Miller
This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures. Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes. The interfaces they use such as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero. So everything "just works" for them. Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(), netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc. pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others. In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely improved. The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the wrong queue, which is mostly harmless. The thing to do is probably to invoke fill_packet() earlier. The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping. Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx(). If we end up needing any kind of special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here. Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver indicates how many TX queues are actually active. With IGB changes from Jeff Kirsher. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17mac80211: Temporarily mark QoS support BROKEN.David S. Miller
We will undo this after a few changsets. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17pkt_sched: Remove RR scheduler.David S. Miller
This actually fixes a bug added by the RR scheduler changes. The ->bands and ->prio2band parameters were being set outside of the sch_tree_lock() and thus could result in strange behavior and inconsistencies. It might be possible, in the new design (where there will be one qdisc per device TX queue) to allow similar functionality via a TX hash algorithm for RR but I really see no reason to export this aspect of how these multiqueue cards actually implement the scheduling of the the individual DMA TX rings and the single physical MAC/PHY port. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17netdev: Kill NETIF_F_MULTI_QUEUE.David S. Miller
There is no need for a feature bit for something that can be tested by simply checking the TX queue count. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-07-17netdev: Allocate multiple queues for TX.David S. Miller
alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument. Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue() interfaces. This makes it easy to grep the tree for all things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device. Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.

2008-07-16core: add stat to track unresolved discards in neighbor cacheNeil Horman
in __neigh_event_send, if we have a neighbour entry which is in NUD_INCOMPLETE state, we enqueue any outbound frames to that neighbour to the neighbours arp_queue, which is default capped to a length of 3 skbs. If that queue exceeds its set length, it will drop an skb on the queue to enqueue the newly arrived skb. This results in a drop for which we have no statistics incremented. This patch adds an unresolved_discards stat to /proc/net/stat/ndisc_cache to track these lost frames. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-07-16mib: add net to NET_ADD_STATS_BHPavel Emelyanov
This one is tricky. The thing is that this macro is only used when killing tw buckets, but since this killer is promiscuous wrt to which net each particular tw belongs to, I have to use it only when NET_NS is off. When the net namespaces are on, I use the INET_INC_STATS_BH for each bucket. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-07-16tcp: replace tcp_sock argument with sock in some placesPavel Emelyanov
These places have a tcp_sock, but we'd prefer the sock itself to get net from it. Fortunately, tcp_sk macro is just a type cast, so this replace is really cheap. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-07-16sock: add net to prot->enter_memory_pressure callbackPavel Emelyanov
The tcp_enter_memory_pressure calls NET_INC_STATS, but doesn't have where to get the net from. I decided to add a sk argument, not the net itself, only to factor all the required sock_net(sk) calls inside the enter_memory_pressure callback itself.

2008-07-16ipv4: prepare net initialization for IP accountingPavel Emelyanov
Some places, that deal with IP statistics already have where to get a struct net from, but use it directly, without declaring a separate variable on the stack.

2008-07-16ipvs: More reliable synchronization on connection closeRumen G. Bogdanovski
This patch enhances the synchronization of the closing connections between the master and the backup director. It prevents the closed connections to expire with the 15 min timeout of the ESTABLISHED state on the backup and makes them expire as they would do on the master with much shorter timeouts.

2008-07-16ipvs: Put backup thread on mcast socket wait queueSven Wegener
Instead of doing an endless loop with sleeping for one second, we now put the backup thread onto the mcast socket wait queue and it gets woken up as soon as we have data to process. Signed-off-by: Sven Wegener <sven.wegener@stealer.net> Acked-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
2008-07-16ipvs: Use kthread_run() instead of doing a double-fork via kernel_thread()Sven Wegener
This also moves the setup code out of the daemons, so that we're able to return proper error codes to user space. The current code will return success to user space when the daemon is started with an invald mcast interface. With these changes we get an appropriate "No such device" error. We longer need our own completion to be sure the daemons are actually running, because they no longer contain code that can fail and kthread_run() takes care of the rest.

2008-07-15SUNRPC: Remove the BKL from the callback functionsTrond Myklebust
Push it into those callback functions that actually need it. Note that all the NFS operations use their own locking, so don't need the BKL. Ditto for the rpcbind client. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>
2008-07-15SUNRPC: Support registering IPv6 interfaces with local rpcbind daemonChuck Lever
Introduce a new API to register RPC services on IPv6 interfaces to allow the NFS server and lockd to advertise on IPv6 networks. Unlike rpcb_register(), the new rpcb_v4_register() function uses rpcbind protocol version 4 to contact the local rpcbind daemon. The version 4 SET/UNSET procedures allow services to register address families besides AF_INET, register at specific network interfaces, and register transport protocols besides UDP and TCP. All of this functionality is exposed via the new rpcb_v4_register() kernel API. A user-space rpcbind daemon implementation that supports version 4 of the rpcbind protocol is required in order to make use of this new API. Note that rpcbind version 3 is sufficient to support the new rpcbind facilities listed above, but most extant implementations use version 4.
