2012-11-03ipv6: introduce ip6_rt_put()Amerigo Wang
As suggested by Eric, we could introduce a helper function for ipv6 too, to avoid checking if rt is NULL before dst_release(). Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: David S.

2012-11-03ipv4: avoid a test in ip_rt_put()Eric Dumazet
We can save a test in ip_rt_put(), considering dst_release() accepts a NULL parameter, and dst is first element in rtable. Add a BUILD_BUG_ON() to catch any change that could break this assertion.

2012-11-03sctp: Clean up type-punning in sctp_cmd_t unionNeil Horman
Lots of points in the sctp_cmd_interpreter function treat the sctp_cmd_t arg as a void pointer, even though they are written as various other types. Theres no need for this as doing so just leads to possible type-punning issues that could cause crashes, and if we remain type-consistent we can actually just remove the void * member of the union entirely. Change Notes: v2) * Dropped chunk that modified SCTP_NULL to create a marker pattern should anyone try to use a SCTP_NULL() assigned sctp_arg_t, Assigning to .zero provides the same effect and should be faster, per Vlad Y. v3) * Reverted part of V2, opting to use memset instead of .zero, so that the entire union is initalized thus avoiding the i164 speculative load problems previously encountered, per Dave M.. Also rewrote SCTP_[NO]FORCE so as to use common infrastructure a little more Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com CC: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@gmail.com> CC: "David S.

2012-11-03pktgen: clean up ktime_t helpersDaniel Borkmann
Some years ago, the ktime_t helper functions ktime_now() and ktime_lt() have been introduced. Instead of defining them inside pktgen.c, they should either use ktime_t library functions or, if not available, they should be defined in ktime.h, so that also others can benefit from them. ktime_compare() is introduced with a similar notion as in timespec_compare().

2012-11-03tcp: better retrans tracking for defer-acceptEric Dumazet
For passive TCP connections using TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT facility, we incorrectly increment req->retrans each time timeout triggers while no SYNACK is sent. SYNACK are not sent for TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT that were established (for which we received the ACK from client). Only the last SYNACK is sent so that we can receive again an ACK from client, to move the req into accept queue. We plan to change this later to avoid the useless retransmit (and potential problem as this SYNACK could be lost) TCP_INFO later gives wrong information to user, claiming imaginary retransmits. Decouple req->retrans field into two independent fields : num_retrans : number of retransmit num_timeout : number of timeouts num_timeout is the counter that is incremented at each timeout, regardless of actual SYNACK being sent or not, and used to compute the exponential timeout. Introduce inet_rtx_syn_ack() helper to increment num_retrans only if ->rtx_syn_ack() succeeded. Use inet_rtx_syn_ack() from tcp_check_req() to increment num_retrans when we re-send a SYNACK in answer to a (retransmitted) SYN. Prior to this patch, we were not counting these retransmits. Change tcp_v[46]_rtx_synack() to increment TCP_MIB_RETRANSSEGS only if a synack packet was successfully queued.

2012-11-02net: Fix continued iteration in rtnl_bridge_getlink()Ben Hutchings
Commit e5a55a898720096f43bc24938f8875c0a1b34cd7 ('net: create generic bridge ops') broke the handling of a non-zero starting index in rtnl_bridge_getlink() (based on the old br_dump_ifinfo()). When the starting index is non-zero, we need to increment the current index for each entry that we are skipping. Also, we need to check the index before both cases, since we may previously have stopped iteration between getting information about a device from its master and from itself.

2012-11-02vhost-net: select tx zero copy dynamicallyMichael S. Tsirkin
Even when vhost-net is in zero-copy transmit mode, net core might still decide to copy the skb later which is somewhat slower than a copy in user context: data copy overhead is added to the cost of page pin/unpin. The result is that enabling tx zero copy option leads to higher CPU utilization for guest to guest and guest to host traffic. To fix this, suppress zero copy tx after a given number of packets triggered late data copy. Re-enable periodically to detect workload changes. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2012-11-02tun: report orphan frags errors to zero copy callbackMichael S. Tsirkin
When tun transmits a zero copy skb, it orphans the frags which might need to allocate extra memory, in atomic context.

Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-11-02skb: api to report errors for zero copy skbsMichael S. Tsirkin
Orphaning frags for zero copy skbs needs to allocate data in atomic context so is has a chance to fail. If it does we currently discard the skb which is safe, but we don't report anything to the caller, so it can not recover by e.g. disabling zero copy. Add an API to free skb reporting such errors: this is used by tun in case orphaning frags fails. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-11-02skb: report completion status for zero copy skbsMichael S. Tsirkin
Even if skb is marked for zero copy, net core might still decide to copy it later which is somewhat slower than a copy in user context: besides copying the data we need to pin/unpin the pages. Add a parameter reporting such cases through zero copy callback: if this happens a lot, device can take this into account and switch to copying in user context.

Handle all TX errors, not only underruns. TX error management is deferred to a dedicated workqueue. Reinitialize the TX ring after treating all remaining frames, and restart the controller when everything has been cleaned up properly.
