2009-02-09mac80211: Reset assoc_scan_tries after an unsuccessful scan runSujith
Trying to associate with a non-existent SSID stops the state machine after the first run. Subsequent association requests fail to start the scan engine. Fix this by resetting assoc_scan_tries to zero after completing a scan run. Signed-off-by: Sujith <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

gro: Optimise TCP packet reception As this function can be called more than half a million times for 10GbE, it's important to optimise it as much as we can. This patch uses bit ops to logical ops, as well as open coding memcmp to exploit alignment properties. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-02-08gro: Optimise IPv4 packet receptionHerbert Xu
As this function can be called more than half a million times for 10GbE, it's important to optimise it as much as we can. This patch does some obvious changes to use 2-byte and 4-byte operations instead of byte-oriented ones where possible. Bit ops are also used to replace logical ops to reduce branching.

2009-02-08gro: Optimise Ethernet header comparisonHerbert Xu
This patch optimises the Ethernet header comparison to use 2-byte and 4-byte xors instead of memcmp. In order to facilitate this, the actual comparison is now carried out by the callers of the shared dev_gro_receive function. This has a significant impact when receiving 1500B packets through 10GbE.

2009-02-08gro: Remember number of held packets instead of counting every timeHerbert Xu
This patch prepares for the move of the same_flow checks out of dev_gro_receive. As such we need to remember the number of held packets since doing a loop just to count them every time is silly.

2009-02-05netlink: change return-value logic of netlink_broadcast()Pablo Neira Ayuso
Currently, netlink_broadcast() reports errors to the caller if no messages at all were delivered: 1) If, at least, one message has been delivered correctly, returns 0. 2) Otherwise, if no messages at all were delivered due to skb_clone() failure, return -ENOBUFS. 3) Otherwise, if there are no listeners, return -ESRCH. With this patch, the caller knows if the delivery of any of the messages to the listeners have failed: 1) If it fails to deliver any message (for whatever reason), return -ENOBUFS. 2) Otherwise, if all messages were delivered OK, returns 0. 3) Otherwise, if no listeners, return -ESRCH. In the current ctnetlink code and in Netfilter in general, we can add reliable logging and connection tracking event delivery by dropping the packets whose events were not successfully delivered over Netlink. Of course, this option would be settable via /proc as this approach reduces performance (in terms of filtered connections per seconds by a stateful firewall) but providing reliable logging and event delivery (for conntrackd) in return. This patch also changes some clients of netlink_broadcast() that may report ENOBUFS errors via printk. This error handling is not of any help. Instead, the userspace daemons that are listening to those netlink messages should resync themselves with the kernel-side if they hit ENOBUFS. BTW, netlink_broadcast() clients include those that call cn_netlink_send(), nlmsg_multicast() and genlmsg_multicast() since they internally call netlink_broadcast() and return its error value.

2009-02-05gro: Fix frag_list merging on imprecisely split packetsHerbert Xu
The previous fix ad0f9904444de1309dedd2b9e365cae8af77d9b1 (gro: Fix handling of imprecisely split packets) only fixed the case of frags merging, frag_list merging in the same circumstances were still broken. In particular, the packet headers end up in the data stream. This patch fixes this plus another issue where an imprecisely split packet header may be read incorrectly (this is mostly harmless since it'll simply cause the packet to not match and be rejected for GRO).

2009-02-05udp: Fix UDP short packet false positiveJesper Dangaard Brouer
The UDP header pointer assignment must happen after calling pskb_may_pull(). As pskb_may_pull() can potentially alter the SKB buffer.

2009-02-04net: Reexport sock_alloc_send_pskbHerbert Xu
The function sock_alloc_send_pskb is completely useless if not exported since most of the code in it won't be used as is. In fact, this code has already been duplicated in the tun driver. Now that we need accounting in the tun driver, we can in fact use this function as is. So this patch marks it for export again.

2009-02-04net: Partially allow skb destructors to be used on receive pathHerbert Xu
As it currently stands, skb destructors are forbidden on the receive path because the protocol end-points will overwrite any existing destructor with their own. This is the reason why we have to call skb_orphan in the loopback driver before we reinject the packet back into the stack, thus creating a period during which loopback traffic isn't charged to any socket. With virtualisation, we have a similar problem in that traffic is reinjected into the stack without being associated with any socket entity, thus providing no natural congestion push-back for those poor folks still stuck with UDP. Now had we been consistent in telling them that UDP simply has no congestion feedback, I could just fob them off. Unfortunately, we appear to have gone to some length in catering for this on the standard UDP path, with skb/socket accounting so that has created a very unhealthy dependency. Alas habits are difficult to break out of, so we may just have to allow skb destructors on the receive path. It turns out that making skb destructors useable on the receive path isn't as easy as it seems. For instance, simply adding skb_orphan to skb_set_owner_r isn't enough. This is because we assume all over the IP stack that skb->sk is an IP socket if present. The new transparent proxy code goes one step further and assumes that skb->sk is the receiving socket if present. Now all of this can be dealt with by adding simple checks such as only treating skb->sk as an IP socket if skb->sk->sk_family matches. However, it turns out that for bridging at least we don't need to do all of this work. This is of interest because most virtualisation setups use bridging so we don't actually go through the IP stack on the host (with the exception of our old nemesis the bridge netfilter, but that's easily taken care of). So this patch simply adds skb_orphan to the point just before we enter the IP stack, but after we've gone through the bridge on the receive path. It also adds an skb_orphan to the one place in netfilter that touches skb->sk/skb->destructor, that is, tproxy. One word of caution, because of the internal code structure, anyone wishing to deploy this must use skb_set_owner_w as opposed to skb_set_owner_r since many functions that create a new skb from an existing one will invoke skb_set_owner_w on the new skb.

2009-01-29wimax: fix build issue when debugfs is disabledInaky Perez-Gonzalez
As reported by Toralf Förster and Randy Dunlap. - http://linuxwimax.org/pipermail/wimax/2009-January/000460.html - http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/29/279 The definitions needed for the wimax stack and i2400m driver debug infrastructure was, by mistake, compiled depending on CONFIG_DEBUG_FS (by them being placed in the debugfs.c files); thus the build broke in 2.6.29-rc3 when debugging was enabled (CONFIG_WIMAX_DEBUG) and DEBUG_FS was disabled. These definitions are always needed if debug is enabled at compile time (independently of DEBUG_FS being or not enabled), so moving them to a file that is always compiled fixes the issue.

2009-01-29gro: Open-code memcpy in napi_fraginfo_skbHerbert Xu
This patch optimises napi_fraginfo_skb to only copy the bits necessary. We also open-code the memcpy so that the alignment information is always available to gcc. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-01-29gro: Do not merge paged packets into frag_listHerbert Xu
gro: Do not merge paged packets into frag_list Bigger is not always better :) It was easy to continue to merged packets into frag_list after the page array is full. However, this turns out to be worse than LRO because frag_list is a much less efficient form of storage than the page array. So we're better off stopping the merge and starting a new entry with an empty page array. In future we can optimise this further by doing frag_list merging but making sure that we continue to fill in the page array.
