* net/sched/sch_hfsc.c: initialize parent's cl_cfmin properly in init_vf()Michal Soltys2010-09-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | This patch fixes init_vf() function, so on each new backlog period parent's cl_cfmin is properly updated (including further propgation towards the root), even if the activated leaf has no upperlimit curve defined.

* net sched: fix kernel leak in act_policeJeff Mahoney2010-09-011-12/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While reviewing commit 1c40be12f7d8ca1d387510d39787b12e512a7ce8, I audited other users of tc_action_ops->dump for information leaks. That commit covered almost all of them but act_police still had a leak. opt.limit and opt.capab aren't zeroed out before the structure is passed out. This patch uses the C99 initializers to zero everything unused out. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Acked-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16183 The sch_teql module, which can be used to load balance over a set of underlying interfaces, stopped working after 2.6.30 and has been broken in all kernels since then for any underlying interface which requires the addition of link level headers. The problem is that the transmit routine relies on being able to access the destination address in the skb in order to do address resolution once it has decided which underlying interface it is going to transmit through. In 2.6.31 the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag was introduced, and set by default for all interfaces, which causes the destination address to be released before the transmit routine for the interface is called. The solution is to clear that flag for teql interfaces. Signed-off-by: Tom Hughes <tom@compton.nu> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* | net: add additional lock to qdisc to increase throughputEric Dumazet2010-06-021-0/+1

The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for this lock for each dequeued packet. One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set. The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate. Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock lock as late as possible. Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000 pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use to explicitly trigger the notification.

* cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sockHerbert Xu2010-05-241-16/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up until now cls_cgroup has relied on fetching the classid out of the current executing thread. This runs into trouble when a packet processing is delayed in which case it may execute out of another thread's context. Furthermore, even when a packet is not delayed we may fail to classify it if soft IRQs have been disabled, because this scenario is indistinguishable from one where a packet unrelated to the current thread is processed by a real soft IRQ. In fact, the current semantics is inherently broken, as a single skb may be constructed out of the writes of two different tasks. A different manifestation of this problem is when the TCP stack transmits in response of an incoming ACK. This is currently unclassified. As we already have a concept of packet ownership for accounting purposes in the skb->sk pointer, this is a natural place to store the classid in a persistent manner. This patch adds the cls_cgroup classid in struct sock, filling up an existing hole on 64-bit :) The value is set at socket creation time. So all sockets created via socket(2) automatically gains the ID of the thread creating it. Whenever another process touches the socket by either reading or writing to it, we will change the socket classid to that of the process if it has a valid (non-zero) classid. For sockets created on inbound connections through accept(2), we inherit the classid of the original listening socket through sk_clone, possibly preceding the actual accept(2) call. In order to minimise risks, I have not made this the authoritative classid. For now it is only used as a backup when we execute with soft IRQs disabled. Once we're completely happy with its semantics we can use it as the sole classid. Footnote: I have rearranged the error path on cls_group module creation. If we didn't do this, then there is a window where someone could create a tc rule using cls_group before the cgroup subsystem has been registered.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When attaching filters to a class pointing to a class higher up in the hierarchy, classification may enter an endless loop. Currently this is prevented for filters that are already resolved, but not for filters resolved at runtime. Only allow filters to point downwards in the hierarchy, similar to what CBQ does.

* tbf: stop wanton destruction of children (v2)stephen hemminger2010-05-171-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | Several netem users use TBF for rate control. But every time the parameters of TBF are changed it destroys the child qdisc, requiring reconfigation. Better to just keep child qdisc and just notify it of changed limit. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: add a noref bit on skb dstEric Dumazet2010-05-171-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use low order bit of skb->_skb_dst to tell dst is not refcounted. Change _skb_dst to _skb_refdst to make sure all uses are catched. skb_dst() returns the dst, regardless of noref bit set or not, but with a lockdep check to make sure a noref dst is not given if current user is not rcu protected. New skb_dst_set_noref() helper to set an notrefcounted dst on a skb. (with lockdep check) skb_dst_drop() drops a reference only if skb dst was refcounted. skb_dst_force() helper is used to force a refcount on dst, when skb is queued and not anymore RCU protected. Use skb_dst_force() in __sk_add_backlog(), __dev_xmit_skb() if !IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE or skb enqueued on qdisc queue, in sock_queue_rcv_skb(), in __nf_queue(). Use skb_dst_force() in dev_requeue_skb(). Note: dst_use_noref() still dirties dst, we might transform it later to do one dirtying per jiffies.
