2010-02-18net: TCP thin dupackAndreas Petlund
This patch enables fast retransmissions after one dupACK for TCP if the stream is identified as thin. This will reduce latencies for thin streams that are not able to trigger fast retransmissions due to high packet interarrival time. This mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol and the stream is identified as thin. Signed-off-by: Andreas Petlund <apetlund@simula.no> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-02-18net: TCP thin linear timeoutsAndreas Petlund
This patch will make TCP use only linear timeouts if the stream is thin. This will help to avoid the very high latencies that thin stream suffer because of exponential backoff. This mechanism is only active if enabled by iocontrol or syscontrol and the stream is identified as thin. A maximum of 6 linear timeouts is tried before exponential backoff is resumed.

Added flags field to macvtap_queue to enable/disable processing of virtio_net_hdr via IFF_VNET_HDR. This flag is checked to prepend virtio_net_hdr in the receive path and process/skip virtio_net_hdr in the send path. Original patch by Sridhar, further changes by Arnd.

2010-02-18net/macvtap: add vhost supportArnd Bergmann

2010-02-18macvtap: rework object lifetime rulesArnd Bergmann
This reworks the change done by the previous patch in a more complete way. The original macvtap code has a number of problems resulting from the use of RCU for protecting the access to struct macvtap_queue from open files. This includes - need for GFP_ATOMIC allocations for skbs - potential deadlocks when copy_*_user sleeps - inability to work with vhost-net Changing the lifetime of macvtap_queue to always depend on the open file solves all these. The RCU reference simply moves one step down to the reference on the macvlan_dev, which we only need for nonblocking operations.

2010-02-17tg3: Enforce DMA mapping / skb assignment orderingMatt Carlson
Michael Chan noted that there is nothing in the code that would prevent the compiler from delaying the access of the "mapping" member of the newly arrived packet until much later. If this happened after the skb = NULL assignment, it is possible for the driver to pass a bad dma_addr value to pci_unmap_single(). To enforce this ordering, we need a write memory barrier. The pairing read memory barrier already exists in tg3_rx_prodring_xfer() under the comments starting with "Ensure that updates to the...".
