* mac80211: Send Layer 2 Update frame on reassociationJouni Malinen2008-12-191-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | When a STA roams back to the same AP before the previous STA entry has expired, a new STA entry is not added in mac80211. However, a Layer 2 Update frame still needs to be transmitted to update layer 2 devices about the new location for the STA. Without this, switches may continue to forward frames to the previous (now incorrect) port when STA roams between APs. Signed-off-by: Jouni Malinen <jouni.malinen@atheros.com> Signed-off-by: John W.

* mac80211: Add HT rates into RX status reportingJouni Malinen2008-12-192-11/+52
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds option for HT-enabled drivers to report HT rates (HT20/HT40, short GI, MCS index) to mac80211.

* mac80211: Fix HT channel selectionSujith2008-12-197-46/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | HT management is done differently for AP and STA modes, unify to just the ->config() callback since HT is fundamentally a PHY property and cannot be per-BSS. Rename enum nl80211_sec_chan_offset as nl80211_channel_type to denote the channel type ( NO_HT, HT20, HT40+, HT40- ).

| | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the TCP-specific portion of GRO.

* net: Add skb_gro_receiveHerbert Xu2008-12-151-0/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the helper skb_gro_receive to merge packets for GRO. The current method is to allocate a new header skb and then chain the original packets to its frag_list.

* ipv4: Add GRO infrastructureHerbert Xu2008-12-151-0/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds GRO support for IPv4. The criteria for merging is more stringent than LRO, in particular, we require all fields in the IP header to be identical except for the length, ID and checksum. In addition, the ID must form an arithmetic sequence with a difference of one. The ID requirement might seem overly strict, however, most hardware TSO solutions already obey this rule. Linux itself also obeys this whether GSO is in use or not. In future we could relax this rule by storing the IDs (or rather making sure that we don't drop them when pulling the aggregate skb's tail).

* net: Add Generic Receive Offload infrastructureHerbert Xu2008-12-151-2/+191
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the top-level GRO (Generic Receive Offload) infrastructure. This is pretty similar to LRO except that this is protocol-independent. Instead of holding packets in an lro_mgr structure, they're now held in napi_struct. For drivers that intend to use this, they can set the NETIF_F_GRO bit and call napi_gro_receive instead of netif_receive_skb or just call netif_rx. The latter will call napi_receive_skb automatically. When napi_gro_receive is used, the driver must either call napi_complete/napi_rx_complete, or call napi_gro_flush in softirq context if the driver uses the primitives __napi_complete/__napi_rx_complete. Protocols will set the gro_receive and gro_complete function pointers in order to participate in this scheme. In addition to the packet, gro_receive will get a list of currently held packets. Each packet in the list has a same_flow field which is non-zero if it is a potential match for the new packet. For each packet that may match, they also have a flush field which is non-zero if the held packet must not be merged with the new packet. Once gro_receive has determined that the new skb matches a held packet, the held packet may be processed immediately if the new skb cannot be merged with it. In this case gro_receive should return the pointer to the existing skb in gro_list. Otherwise the new skb should be merged into the existing packet and NULL should be returned, unless the new skb makes it impossible for any further merges to be made (e.g., FIN packet) where the merged skb should be returned. Whenever the skb is merged into an existing entry, the gro_receive function should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->same_flow. Note that if an skb merely matches an existing entry but can't be merged with it, then this shouldn't be set. If gro_receive finds it pointless to hold the new skb for future merging, it should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush. Held packets will be flushed by napi_gro_flush which is called by napi_complete and napi_rx_complete. Currently held packets are stored in a singly liked list just like LRO. The list is limited to a maximum of 8 entries. In future, this may be expanded to use a hash table to allow more flows to be held for merging.

* net: Add frag_list support to GSOHerbert Xu2008-12-151-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch allows GSO to handle frag_list in a limited way for the purposes of allowing packets merged by GRO to be refragmented on output. Most hardware won't (and aren't expected to) support handling GRO frag_list packets directly. Therefore we will perform GSO in software for those cases. However, for drivers that can support it (such as virtual NICs) we may not have to segment the packets at all. Whether the added overhead of GRO/GSO is worthwhile for bridges and routers when weighed against the benefit of potentially increasing the MTU within the host is still an open question. However, for the case of host nodes this is undoubtedly a win. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds limited support for handling frag_list packets in skb_segment. The intention is to support GRO (Generic Receive Offload) packets which will be constructed by chaining normal packets using frag_list. As such we require all frag_list members terminate on exact MSS boundaries. This is checked using BUG_ON. As there should only be one producer in the kernel of such packets, namely GRO, this requirement should not be difficult to maintain.

Consider the following scenario: INITIAL STATE CPU0 has one napi_struct A on its poll_list CPU1 is calling netpoll_send_skb and needs to call poll_napi on the same napi_struct A that CPU0 has on its list CPU0 CPU1 net_rx_action poll_napi !list_empty (returns true) locks poll_lock for A poll_one_napi napi->poll netif_rx_complete __napi_complete (removes A from poll_list) list_entry(list->next) In the above scenario, net_rx_action assumes that the per-cpu poll_list is exclusive to that cpu. netpoll of course violates that, and because the netpoll path can dequeue from the poll list, its possible for CPU0 to detect a non-empty list at the top of the while loop in net_rx_action, but have it become empty by the time it calls list_entry. Since the poll_list isn't surrounded by any other structure, the returned data from that list_entry call in this situation is garbage, and any number of crashes can result based on what exactly that garbage is. Given that its not fasible for performance reasons to place exclusive locks arround each cpus poll list to provide that mutal exclusion, I think the best solution is modify the netpoll path in such a way that we continue to guarantee that the poll_list for a cpu is in fact exclusive to that cpu. To do this I've implemented the patch below. It adds an additional bit to the state field in the napi_struct. When executing napi->poll from the netpoll_path, this bit will be set. When a driver calls netif_rx_complete, if that bit is set, it will not remove the napi_struct from the poll_list. That work will be saved for the next iteration of net_rx_action. I've tested this and it seems to work well. About the biggest drawback I can see to it is the fact that it might result in an extra loop through net_rx_action in the event that the device is actually contended for (i.e. the netpoll path actually preforms all the needed work no the device, and the call to net_rx_action winds up doing nothing, except removing the napi_struct from the poll_list. However I think this is probably a small price to pay, given that the alternative is a crash. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes minor annoyance during transmission of unsolicited neighbor advertisements from userspace to multicast addresses (as far as I can see in RFC, this is allowed and the similar functionality for IPv4 has been in arping for a long time).

At present tcp_vegas does separate book-keeping of cwnd based on packet sequence numbers. A mismatch can develop between this book-keeping and tp->snd_cwnd due, for example, to delayed acks acking multiple packets. When vegas transitions to reno operation (e.g. following loss), then this mismatch leads to incorrect behaviour (akin to a cwnd backoff). This seems mostly to affect operation at low cwnds where delayed acking can lead to a significant fraction of cwnd being covered by a single ack, leading to the book-keeping mismatch. This patch modifies the congestion avoidance update to avoid the need for separate book-keeping while leaving vegas congestion avoidance functionally unchanged. A secondary advantage of this modification is that the use of fixed-point (via V_PARAM_SHIFT) and 64 bit arithmetic is no longer necessary, simplifying the code. Some example test measurements with the patched code (confirming no functional change in the congestion avoidance algorithm) can be seen at: http://www.hamilton.ie/doug/vegaspatch/ Signed-off-by: Doug Leith <doug.leith@nuim.ie> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TIME_WAIT sockets need to be handled specially, and the socket match casted inet_timewait_sock instances to inet_sock, which are not compatible. Handle this special case by checking sk->sk_state. Signed-off-by: Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | * | Add a reference to sunrpc in svc_addsockTom Tucker2008-11-241-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The svc_addsock function adds transport instances without taking a reference on the sunrpc.ko module, however, the generic transport destruction code drops a reference when a transport instance is destroyed. Add a try_module_get call to the svc_addsock function for transport instances added by this function. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com> Signed-off-by: J.
