2010-09-26net: propagate NETIF_F_HIGHDMA to vlansEric Dumazet
Automatically allows vlans to get NETIF_F_HIGHDMA if underlying device supports it. On 32bit arches (and more precisely if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled), it can help to reduce cost of illegal_highdma() and __skb_linearize() calls. Tested on tg3 , bnx2, bonding, this worked very well. This is a generalization of a patch provided by Yi Zou & Jeff Kirsher. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-09-24net: fix a lockdep splatEric Dumazet
We have for each socket : One spinlock (sk_slock.slock) One rwlock (sk_callback_lock) Possible scenarios are : (A) (this is used in net/sunrpc/xprtsock.c) read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) (without blocking BH) <BH> spin_lock(&sk->sk_slock.slock); ... read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock); ... (B) write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock) stuff write_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock) (C) spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_slock) ... write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock) stuff write_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock) spin_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_slock) This (C) case conflicts with (A) : CPU1 [A] CPU2 [C] read_lock(callback_lock) <BH> spin_lock_bh(slock) <wait to spin_lock(slock)> <wait to write_lock_bh(callback_lock)> We have one problematic (C) use case in inet_csk_listen_stop() : local_bh_disable(); bh_lock_sock(child); // spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_slock) WARN_ON(sock_owned_by_user(child)); ... sock_orphan(child); // write_lock_bh(&sk->sk_callback_lock) lockdep is not happy with this, as reported by Tetsuo Handa It seems only way to deal with this is to use read_lock_bh(callbacklock) everywhere.

2010-09-14net: use rcu_barrier() in rollback_registered_manyEric Dumazet
netdev_wait_allrefs() waits that all references to a device vanishes. It currently uses a _very_ pessimistic 250 ms delay between each probe. Some users reported that no more than 4 devices can be dismantled per second, this is a pretty serious problem for some setups. Most of the time, a refcount is about to be released by an RCU callback, that is still in flight because rollback_registered_many() uses a synchronize_rcu() call instead of rcu_barrier().

2010-09-08gro: Re-fix different skb headroomsJarek Poplawski
The patch: "gro: fix different skb headrooms" in its part: "2) allocate a minimal skb for head of frag_list" is buggy. The copied skb has p->data set at the ip header at the moment, and skb_gro_offset is the length of ip + tcp headers. So, after the change the length of mac header is skipped. Later skb_set_mac_header() sets it into the NET_SKB_PAD area (if it's long enough) and ip header is misaligned at NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN offset. There is no reason to assume the original skb was wrongly allocated, so let's copy it as it was. bugzilla : https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16626 fixes commit: 3d3be4333fdf6faa080947b331a6a19bce1a4f57 Reported-by: Plamen Petrov <pvp-lsts@fs.uni-ruse.bg> Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> CC: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Tested-by: Plamen Petrov <pvp-lsts@fs.uni-ruse.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-09-07net: fix tx queue selection for bridged devices implementing select_queueHelmut Schaa
When a net device is implementing the select_queue callback and is part of a bridge, frames coming from the bridge already have a tx queue associated to the socket (introduced in commit a4ee3ce3293dc931fab19beb472a8bde1295aebe, "net: Use sk_tx_queue_mapping for connected sockets"). The call to sk_tx_queue_get will then return the tx queue used by the bridge instead of calling the select_queue callback. In case of mac80211 this broke QoS which is implemented by using the select_queue callback. Furthermore it introduced problems with rt2x00 because frames with the same TID and RA sometimes appeared on different tx queues which the hw cannot handle correctly. Fix this by always calling select_queue first if it is available and only afterwards use the socket tx queue mapping. Signed-off-by: Helmut Schaa <helmut.schaa@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-09-01gro: fix different skb headroomsEric Dumazet
Packets entering GRO might have different headrooms, even for a given flow (because of implementation details in drivers, like copybreak). We cant force drivers to deliver packets with a fixed headroom. 1) fix skb_segment() skb_segment() makes the false assumption headrooms of fragments are same than the head. When CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is used, this can give csum_start errors, and crash later in skb_copy_and_csum_dev() 2) allocate a minimal skb for head of frag_list skb_gro_receive() uses netdev_alloc_skb(headroom + skb_gro_offset(p)) to allocate a fresh skb. This adds NET_SKB_PAD to a padding already provided by netdevice, depending on various things, like copybreak.

2010-08-23ethtool: allow non-netadmin to query settingsstephen hemminger
The SNMP daemon uses ethtool to determine the speed of network interfaces. This fails on Debian (and probably elsewhere) because for security SNMP daemon runs as non-root user (snmp). Note: A similar patch was rejected previously because of a concern about the possibility that on some hardware querying the ethtool settings requires access to the PHY and could slow the machine down. But the security risk of requiring SNMP daemon (and related services) to run as root far out weighs the risk of denial-of-service.

2010-08-19net: simplify flags for tx timestampingOliver Hartkopp
This patch removes the abstraction introduced by the union skb_shared_tx in the shared skb data. The access of the different union elements at several places led to some confusion about accessing the shared tx_flags e.g. in skb_orphan_try(). http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=128084897415886&w=2 Signed-off-by: Oliver Hartkopp <socketcan@hartkopp.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-08-17ethtool: Provide a default implementation of ethtool_ops::get_drvinfoBen Hutchings
The driver name and bus address for a net_device can normally be found through the driver model now. Instead of requiring drivers to provide this information redundantly through the ethtool_ops::get_drvinfo operation, use the driver model to do so if the driver does not define the operation. Since ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO no longer requires the driver to implement any operations, do not require net_device::ethtool_ops to be set either. Remove implementations of get_drvinfo and ethtool_ops that provide only this information. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
