2010-11-12igmp: RCU conversion of in_dev->mc_listEric Dumazet

2010-11-11net: get rid of rtable->idevEric Dumazet
It seems idev field in struct rtable has no special purpose, but adding extra atomic ops. We hold refcounts on the device itself (using percpu data, so pretty cheap in current kernel). infiniband case is solved using dst.dev instead of idev->dev Removal of this field means routing without route cache is now using shared data, percpu data, and only potential contention is a pair of atomic ops on struct neighbour per forwarded packet. About 5% speedup on routing test.

2010-11-10dccp ccid-2: Implementation of circular Ack Vector buffer with overflow handlingGerrit Renker
This completes the implementation of a circular buffer for Ack Vectors, by extending the current (linear array-based) implementation. The changes are: (a) An `overflow' flag to deal with the case of overflow. As before, dynamic growth of the buffer will not be supported; but code will be added to deal robustly with overflowing Ack Vector buffers. (b) A `tail_seqno' field. When naively implementing the algorithm of Appendix A in RFC 4340, problems arise whenever subsequent Ack Vector records overlap, which can bring the entire run length calculation completely out of synch. (This is documented on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/\ ack_vectors/tracking_tail_ackno/ .) (c) The buffer length is now computed dynamically (i.e. current fill level), as the span between head to tail. As a result, dccp_ackvec_pending() is now simpler - the #ifdef is no longer necessary since buf_empty is always true when IP_DCCP_ACKVEC is not configured.

2010-11-10dccp ccid-2: Separate internals of Ack Vectors from option-parsing codeGerrit Renker
This patch * separates Ack Vector housekeeping code from option-insertion code; * shifts option-specific code from ackvec.c into options.c; * introduces a dedicated routine to take care of the Ack Vector records; * simplifies the dccp_ackvec_insert_avr() routine: the BUG_ON was redundant, since the list is automatically arranged in descending order of ack_seqno.

2010-11-10dccp ccid-2: Ack Vector interface clean-upGerrit Renker
This patch brings the Ack Vector interface up to date. Its main purpose is to lay the basis for the subsequent patches of this set, which will use the new data structure fields and routines. There are no real algorithmic changes, rather an adaptation: (1) Replaced the static Ack Vector size (2) with a #define so that it can be adapted (with low loss / Ack Ratio, a value of 1 works, so 2 seems to be sufficient for the moment) and added a solution so that computing the ECN nonce will continue to work - even with larger Ack Vectors. (2) Replaced the #defines for Ack Vector states with a complete enum. (3) Replaced #defines to compute Ack Vector length and state with general purpose routines (inlines), and updated code to use these. (4) Added a `tail' field (conversion to circular buffer in subsequent patch). (5) Updated the (outdated) documentation for Ack Vector struct. (6) All sequence number containers now trimmed to 48 bits. (7) Removal of unused bits: * removed dccpav_ack_nonce from struct dccp_ackvec, since this is already redundantly stored in the `dccpavr_ack_nonce' (of Ack Vector record); * removed Elapsed Time for Ack Vectors (it was nowhere used); * replaced semantics of dccpavr_sent_len with dccpavr_ack_runlen, since the code needs to be able to remember the old run length; * reduced the de-/allocation routines (redundant / duplicate tests).

2010-11-08af_unix: optimize unix_dgram_poll()Eric Dumazet
unix_dgram_poll() is pretty expensive to check POLLOUT status, because it has to lock the socket to get its peer, take a reference on the peer to check its receive queue status, and queue another poll_wait on peer_wait. This all can be avoided if the process calling unix_dgram_poll() is not interested in POLLOUT status. It makes unix_dgram_recvmsg() faster by not queueing irrelevant pollers in peer_wait. On a test program provided by Alan Crequy : Before: real 0m0.211s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.208s After: real 0m0.044s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.040s Suggested-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Reported-by: Alban Crequy <alban.crequy@collabora.co.uk> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-11-08af_unix: fix unix_dgram_poll() behavior for EPOLLOUT eventEric Dumazet
Alban Crequy reported a problem with connected dgram af_unix sockets and provided a test program. epoll() would miss to send an EPOLLOUT event when a thread unqueues a packet from the other peer, making its receive queue not full. This is because unix_dgram_poll() fails to call sock_poll_wait(file, &unix_sk(other)->peer_wait, wait); if the socket is not writeable at the time epoll_ctl(ADD) is called. We must call sock_poll_wait(), regardless of 'writable' status, so that epoll can be notified later of states changes.

2010-11-03net dst: fix percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwrittenXiaotian Feng
There're some percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten warnings in recent kernel, which is resulted by fc66f95c. commit fc66f95c switches to use percpu_counter, in ip6_route_net_init, kernel init the percpu_counter for dst entries, but, the percpu_counter is never destroyed in ip6_route_net_exit. So if the related data is freed by kernel, the freed percpu_counter is still on the list, then if we insert/remove other percpu_counter, list corruption resulted. Also, if the insert/remove option modifies the ->prev,->next pointer of the freed value, the poison overwritten is resulted then. With the following patch, the percpu_counter list corruption and poison overwritten warnings disappeared. Signed-off-by: Xiaotian Feng <dfeng@redhat.com> Cc: "David S.

2010-10-30RDS: Let rds_message_alloc_sgs() return NULLAndy Grover
Even with the previous fix, we still are reading the iovecs once to determine SGs needed, and then again later on. Preallocating space for sg lists as part of rds_message seemed like a good idea but it might be better to not do this. While working to redo that code, this patch attempts to protect against userspace rewriting the rds_iovec array between the first and second accesses. The consequences of this would be either a too-small or too-large sg list array. Too large is not an issue. This patch changes all callers of message_alloc_sgs to handle running out of preallocated sgs, and fail gracefully. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Implement stack-based storage for small numbers of iovecs, based on net/socket.c, to save an alloc in the extremely common case.

As reported by Thomas Pollet, the rdma page counting can overflow. We get the rdma sizes in 64-bit unsigned entities, but then limit it to UINT_MAX bytes and shift them down to pages (so with a possible "+1" for an unaligned address). So each individual page count fits comfortably in an 'unsigned int' (not even close to overflowing into signed), but as they are added up, they might end up resulting in a signed return value. Which would be wrong. Catch the case of tot_pages turning negative, and return the appropriate error code.

2010-10-29mac80211: fix failure to check kmalloc return value in key_key_readJesper Juhl
I noticed two small issues in mac80211/debugfs_key.c::key_key_read while reading through the code. Patch below. The key_key_read() function returns ssize_t and the value that's actually returned is the return value of simple_read_from_buffer() which also returns ssize_t, so let's hold the return value in a ssize_t local variable rather than a int one. Also, memory is allocated dynamically with kmalloc() which can fail, but the return value of kmalloc() is not checked, so we may end up operating on a null pointer further on. So check for a NULL return and bail out with -ENOMEM in that case. Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl <jj@chaosbits.net> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2010-10-29netfilter: fix nf_conntrack_l4proto_register()Eric Dumazet

On some arches, it is possible we publish a table while its content is not yet committed to memory, and lockless reader can dereference wild pointer.
