* random32: add prandom_u32_max and convert open coded usersDaniel Borkmann2014-01-211-8/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many functions have open coded a function that returns a random number in range [0,N-1]. Under the assumption that we have a PRNG such as taus113 with being well distributed in [0, ~0U] space, we can implement such a function as uword t = (n*m')>>32, where m' is a random number obtained from PRNG, n the right open interval border and t our resulting random number, with n,m',t in u32 universe. Lets go with Joe and simply call it prandom_u32_max(), although technically we have an right open interval endpoint, but that we have documented. Other users can further be migrated to the new prandom_u32_max() function later on; for now, we need to make sure to migrate reciprocal_divide() users for the reciprocal_divide() follow-up fixup since their function signatures are going to change.

* treewide: Add __GFP_NOWARN to k.alloc calls with v.alloc fallbacksJoe Perches2013-08-201-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Don't emit OOM warnings when k.alloc calls fail when there there is a v.alloc immediately afterwards. Converted a kmalloc/vmalloc with memset to kzalloc/vzalloc.

* net/sched: rename random32() to prandom_u32()Akinobu Mita2013-04-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Use preferable function name which implies using a pseudo-random number generator.

* pkt_sched: Stop using NLA_PUT*().David S. Miller2012-04-011-2/+3
| | | | | | | These macros contain a hidden goto, and are thus extremely error prone and make code hard to audit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: Make qdisc_skb_cb upper size bound explicit.David S. Miller2012-02-091-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Just like skb->cb[], so that qdisc_skb_cb can be encapsulated inside of other data structures. This is intended to be used by IPoIB so that it can remember addressing information stored at hard_header_ops->create() time that it can fetch when the packet gets to the transmit routine.

* net_sched: red: split red_parms into parms and varsEric Dumazet2012-01-051-19/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch splits the red_parms structure into two components. One holding the RED 'constant' parameters, and one containing the variables. This permits a size reduction of GRED qdisc, and is a preliminary step to add an optional RED unit to SFQ. SFQRED will have a single red_parms structure shared by all flows, and a private red_vars per flow.

* sch_red: generalize accurate MAX_P support to RED/GRED/CHOKEEric Dumazet2011-12-091-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now RED uses a Q0.32 number to store max_p (max probability), allow RED/GRED/CHOKE to use/report full resolution at config/dump time. Old tc binaries are non aware of new attributes, and still set/get Plog. New tc binary set/get both Plog and max_p for backward compatibility, they display "probability value" if they get max_p from new kernels. # tc -d qdisc show dev ... ... qdisc red 10: parent 1:1 limit 360Kb min 30Kb max 90Kb ecn ewma 5 probability 0.09 Scell_log 15 Make sure we avoid potential divides by 0 in reciprocal_value(), if (max_th - min_th) is big.

* sch_choke: use skb_flow_dissect()Eric Dumazet2011-11-291-89/+31

* sch_choke: use skb_header_pointer()Eric Dumazet2011-11-081-10/+17
| | | | | | | | | | Remove the assumption that skb_get_rxhash() makes IP header and ports linear, and use skb_header_pointer() instead in choke_match_flow() This permits __skb_get_rxhash() to use skb_header_pointer() eventually.

* sched: CHOKe flow schedulerstephen hemminger2011-02-021-0/+676
CHOKe ("CHOose and Kill" or "CHOose and Keep") is an alternative packet scheduler based on the Random Exponential Drop (RED) algorithm. The core idea is: For every packet arrival: Calculate Qave if (Qave < minth) Queue the new packet else Select randomly a packet from the queue if (both packets from same flow) then Drop both the packets else if (Qave > maxth) Drop packet else Admit packet with proability p (same as RED) See also: Rong Pan, Balaji Prabhakar, Konstantinos Psounis, "CHOKe: a stateless active queue management scheme for approximating fair bandwidth allocation", Proceeding of INFOCOM'2000, March 2000.
