2006-03-20[DCCP]: Make CCID2 be the defaultArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
As per the draft. This fixes the build when netfilter dccp components are built and dccp isn't. Thanks to Reuben Farrelly for reporting this. The following changesets will introduce /proc/sys/net/dccp/defaults/ to give more flexibility to DCCP developers and testers while apps doesn't use setsockopt to specify the desired CCID, etc. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@mandriva.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-03-20[NETFILTER]: Fix skb->nf_bridge lifetime issuesPatrick McHardy
The bridge netfilter code simulates the NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING hook and skips the real hook by registering with high priority and returning NF_STOP if skb->nf_bridge is present and the BRNF_NF_BRIDGE_PREROUTING flag is not set. The flag is only set during the simulated hook. Because skb->nf_bridge is only freed when the packet is destroyed, the packet will not only skip the first invocation of NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING, but in the case of tunnel devices on top of the bridge also all further ones. Forwarded packets from a bridge encapsulated by a tunnel device and sent as locally outgoing packet will also still have the incorrect bridge information from the input path attached. We already have nf_reset calls on all RX/TX paths of tunnel devices, so simply reset the nf_bridge field there too. As an added bonus, the bridge information for locally delivered packets is now also freed when the packet is queued to a socket.

2006-03-20[DCCP] CCID: Improve CCID infrastructureArnaldo Carvalho de Melo
1. No need for ->ccid_init nor ->ccid_exit, this is what module_{init,exit} does and anynways neither ccid2 nor ccid3 were using it. 2. Rename struct ccid to struct ccid_operations and introduce struct ccid with a pointer to ccid_operations and rigth after it the rx or tx private state. 3. Remove the pointer to the state of the half connections from struct dccp_sock, now its derived thru ccid_priv() from the ccid pointer. Now we also can implement the setsockopt for changing the CCID easily as no ccid init routines can affect struct dccp_sock in any way that prevents other CCIDs from working if a CCID switch operation is asked by apps.

2006-03-20[NETFILTER] nf_conntrack: clean up to reduce size of 'struct nf_conn'Harald Welte
This patch moves all helper related data fields of 'struct nf_conn' into a separate structure 'struct nf_conn_help'. This new structure is only present in conntrack entries for which we actually have a helper loaded. Also, this patch cleans up the nf_conntrack 'features' mechanism to resemble what the original idea was: Just glue the feature-specific data structures at the end of 'struct nf_conn', and explicitly re-calculate the pointer to it when needed rather than keeping pointers around. Saves 20 bytes per conntrack on my x86_64 box. A non-helped conntrack is 276 bytes. We still need to save another 20 bytes in order to fit into to target of 256bytes.

2006-03-20[NET] core: add RFC2863 operstateStefan Rompf
this patch adds a dormant flag to network devices, RFC2863 operstate derived from these flags and possibility for userspace interaction. It allows drivers to signal that a device is unusable for user traffic without disabling queueing (and therefore the possibility for protocol establishment traffic to flow) and a userspace supplicant (WPA, 802.1X) to mark a device unusable without changes to the driver. It is the result of our long discussion. However I must admit that it represents what Jamal and I agreed on with compromises towards Krzysztof, but Thomas and Krzysztof still disagree with some parts. Anyway I think it should be applied.

Currently allocations are very constrained for 32-bit processes. It grows down-up from 0x70000000 to 0xf0000000 which gives about 2GB of stack + dynamic mmap() space. So support the top-down method, and we need to override the generic helper function in order to deal with D-cache coloring. With these changes I was able to squeeze out a mmap() just over 3.6GB in size in a 32-bit process. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-03-20[SPARC64]: Fix and re-enable dynamic TSB sizing.David S. Miller
This is good for up to %50 performance improvement of some test cases. The problem has been the race conditions, and hopefully I've plugged them all up here. 1) There was a serious race in switch_mm() wrt. lazy TLB switching to and from kernel threads. We could erroneously skip a tsb_context_switch() and thus use a stale TSB across a TSB grow event. There is a big comment now in that function describing exactly how it can happen. 2) All code paths that do something with the TSB need to be guarded with the mm->context.lock spinlock. This makes page table flushing paths properly synchronize with both TSB growing and TLB context changes. 3) TSB growing events are moved to the end of successful fault processing. Previously it was in update_mmu_cache() but that is deadlock prone. At the end of do_sparc64_fault() we hold no spinlocks that could deadlock the TSB grow sequence. We also have dropped the address space semaphore. While we're here, add prefetching to the copy_tsb() routine and put it in assembler into the tsb.S file. This piece of code is quite time critical. There are some small negative side effects to this code which can be improved upon. In particular we grab the mm->context.lock even for the tsb insert done by update_mmu_cache() now and that's a bit excessive. We can get rid of that locking, and the same lock taking in flush_tsb_user(), by disabling PSTATE_IE around the whole operation including the capturing of the tsb pointer and tsb_nentries value. That would work because anyone growing the TSB won't free up the old TSB until all cpus respond to the TSB change cross call. I'm not quite so confident in that optimization to put it in right now, but eventually we might be able to and the description is here for reference. This code seems very solid now. It passes several parallel GCC bootstrap builds, and our favorite "nut cruncher" stress test which is a full "make -j8192" build of a "make allmodconfig" kernel. That puts about 256 processes on each cpu's run queue, makes lots of process cpu migrations occur, causes lots of page table and TLB flushing activity, incurs many context version number changes, and it swaps the machine real far out to disk even though there is 16GB of ram on this test system. :-) Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-03-20[SPARC64]: Bulletproof MMU context locking.David S. Miller
1) Always spin_lock_init() in init_context(). The caller essentially clears it out, or copies the mm info from the parent. In both cases we need to explicitly initialize the spinlock. 2) Always do explicit IRQ disabling while taking mm->context.lock and ctx_alloc_lock. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
