2011-11-14bridge: Fix potential deadlock on br->multicast_lockAndrey Vagin
multicast_lock is taken in softirq context, so we should use spin_lock_bh() in userspace. call-chain in softirq context: run_timer_softirq() br_multicast_query_expired() call-chain in userspace: sysfs_write_file() store_multicast_snooping() br_multicast_toggle() Signed-off-by: Andrew Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-14ip6_tunnel: copy parms.name after register_netdeviceJosh Boyer
Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in ip6_tnl_create because register_netdevice will now create a valid name. This works for the net_device itself. However the tunnel keeps a copy of the name in the parms structure for the ip6_tnl associated with the tunnel. parms.name is set by copying the net_device name in ip6_tnl_dev_init_gen. That function is called from ip6_tnl_dev_init in ip6_tnl_create, but it is done before register_netdevice is called so the name is set to a bogus value in the parms.name structure. This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show: [root@localhost ~]# ip -6 tunnel add remote fec0::100 local fec0::200 [root@localhost ~]# ip -6 tunnel show ip6tnl0: ipv6/ipv6 remote :: local :: encaplimit 0 hoplimit 0 tclass 0x00 flowlabel 0x00000 (flowinfo 0x00000000) ip6tnl%d: ipv6/ipv6 remote fec0::100 local fec0::200 encaplimit 4 hoplimit 64 tclass 0x00 flowlabel 0x00000 (flowinfo 0x00000000) [root@localhost ~]# Fix this by moving the strcpy out of ip6_tnl_dev_init_gen, and calling it after register_netdevice has successfully returned.

2011-11-14ipv6: reduce percpu needs for icmpv6msg mibsEric Dumazet
Reading /proc/net/snmp6 on a machine with a lot of cpus is very expensive (can be ~88000 us). This is because ICMPV6MSG MIB uses 4096 bytes per cpu, and folding values for all possible cpus can read 16 Mbytes of memory (32MBytes on non x86 arches) ICMP messages are not considered as fast path on a typical server, and eventually few cpus handle them anyway. We can afford an atomic operation instead of using percpu data. This saves 4096 bytes per cpu and per network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-14rds: drop "select LLIST"Paul Bolle
Commit 1bc144b625 ("net, rds, Replace xlist in net/rds/xlist.h with llist") added "select LLIST" to the RDS_RDMA Kconfig entry. But there is no Kconfig symbol named LLIST. The select statement for that symbol is a nop. Drop it. lib/llist.o is builtin, so all that's needed to use the llist functionality is to include linux/llist.h, which this commit also did.

2011-11-14net/packet: remove dead code and unneeded variable from ↵Jesper Juhl
prb_setup_retire_blk_timer() We test for 'tx_ring' being != zero and BUG() if that's the case. So after that check there is no way that 'tx_ring' could be anything _but_ zero, so testing it again is just dead code.

2011-11-12ah: Don't return NET_XMIT_DROP on input.Nick Bowler
When the ahash driver returns -EBUSY, AH4/6 input functions return NET_XMIT_DROP, presumably copied from the output code path. But returning transmit codes on input doesn't make a lot of sense. Since NET_XMIT_DROP is a positive int, this gets interpreted as the next header type (i.e., success). As that can only end badly, remove the check.

My gcc, 4.6.1, can actually see that and doesn't warn. Simply initialize the variable to NULL.

2011-11-11cfg80211: merge in beacon ies of hidden bss.Dmitry Tarnyagin
The problem with PSM when a hidden SSID was used was originally reported by Juuso Oikarinen. - When generally scanning, the AP is getting a bss entry with a zero SSID. - When associating, a probe-req is sent to the AP with the SSID, and as a result a probe-response is received with the hidden SSID in place. As a consequence, a second bss entry is created for the AP, now with the real SSID. - After association, mac80211 executes ieee80211_recalc_ps(), but does not switch to powersave because the beacon-ies are missing. As result, the STA does not ever enter PSM. The patch merges in beacon ies of hidden bss from beacon to the probe response, creating a consistent set of ies in place. Patch is depended on "cfg80211: fix cmp_ies" made by Johannes. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Tarnyagin <dmitry.tarnyagin@stericsson.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference. We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load. We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios. This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as well. On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg() calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps. IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware UDP application. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
