| * mac80211: fix vlan and optimise RXJohannes Berg2009-10-073-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When receiving data frames, we can send them only to the interface they belong to based on transmitting station (this doesn't work for probe requests). Also, don't try to handle other frames for AP_VLAN at all since those interface should only receive data. Additionally, the transmit side must check that the station we're sending a frame to is actually on the interface we're transmitting on, and not transmit packets to functions that live on other interfaces, so validate that as well. Another bug fix is needed in sta_info.c where in the VLAN case when adding/removing stations we overwrite the sdata variable we still need.

* wext: let get_wireless_stats() sleepJohannes Berg2009-10-051-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A number of drivers (recently including cfg80211-based ones) assume that all wireless handlers, including statistics, can sleep and they often also implicitly assume that the rtnl is held around their invocation.

* pktgen: Fix multiqueue handlingEric Dumazet2009-10-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is not currently possible to instruct pktgen to use one selected tx queue. When Robert added multiqueue support in commit 45b270f8, he added an interval (queue_map_min, queue_map_max), and his code doesnt take into account the case of min = max, to select one tx queue exactly. I suspect a high performance setup on a eight txqueue device wants to use exactly eight cpus, and assign one tx queue to each sender. This patchs makes pktgen select the right tx queue, not the first one. Also updates Documentation to reflect Robert changes.

* net: splice() from tcp to pipe should take into account O_NONBLOCKEric Dumazet2009-10-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_splice_read() doesnt take into account socket's O_NONBLOCK flag Before this patch : splice(socket,0,pipe,0,128*1024,SPLICE_F_MOVE); causes a random endless block (if pipe is full) and splice(socket,0,pipe,0,128*1024,SPLICE_F_MOVE | SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK); will return 0 immediately if the TCP buffer is empty. User application has no way to instruct splice() that socket should be in blocking mode but pipe in nonblock more. Many projects cannot use splice(tcp -> pipe) because of this flaw. http://git.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=history;f=source3/lib/recvfile.c;h=ea0159642137390a0f7e57a123684e6e63e47581;hb=HEAD http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0807.2/0687.html Linus introduced SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK in commit 29e350944fdc2dfca102500790d8ad6d6ff4f69d (splice: add SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK flag ) It doesn't make the splice itself necessarily nonblocking (because the actual file descriptors that are spliced from/to may block unless they have the O_NONBLOCK flag set), but it makes the splice pipe operations nonblocking. Linus intention was clear : let SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK control the splice pipe mode only This patch instruct tcp_splice_read() to use the underlying file O_NONBLOCK flag, as other socket operations do. Users will then call : splice(socket,0,pipe,0,128*1024,SPLICE_F_MOVE | SPLICE_F_NONBLOCK ); to block on data coming from socket (if file is in blocking mode), and not block on pipe output (to avoid deadlock) First version of this patch was submitted by Octavian Purdila Reported-by: Volker Lendecke <vl@samba.org> Reported-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila <opurdila@ixiacom.com> Acked-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Acked-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* IPv4 TCP fails to send window scale option when window scale is zeroOri Finkelman2009-10-011-5/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Acknowledge TCP window scale support by inserting the proper option in SYN/ACK and SYN headers even if our window scale is zero. This fixes the following observed behavior: 1. Client sends a SYN with TCP window scaling option and non zero window scale value to a Linux box. 2. Linux box notes large receive window from client. 3. Linux decides on a zero value of window scale for its part. 4. Due to compare against requested window scale size option, Linux does not to send windows scale TCP option header on SYN/ACK at all. With the following result: Client box thinks TCP window scaling is not supported, since SYN/ACK had no TCP window scale option, while Linux thinks that TCP window scaling is supported (and scale might be non zero), since SYN had TCP window scale option and we have a mismatched idea between the client and server regarding window sizes. Probably it also fixes up the following bug (not observed in practice): 1. Linux box opens TCP connection to some server. 2. Linux decides on zero value of window scale. 3. Due to compare against computed window scale size option, Linux does not to set windows scale TCP option header on SYN. With the expected result that the server OS does not use window scale option due to not receiving such an option in the SYN headers, leading to suboptimal performance.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Consider the following step-by step: 1. A STA authenticates and associates with the AP and exchanges traffic. 2. The STA reports to the AP that it is going to PS state. 3. Some time later the STA device goes to the stand-by mode (not only its wi-fi card, but the device itself) and drops the association state without sending a disassociation frame. 4. The STA device wakes up and begins authentication with an Auth frame as it hasn't been authenticated/associated previously. At the step 4 the AP "remembers" the STA and considers it is still in the PS state, so the AP buffers frames, which it has to send to the STA. But the STA isn't actually in the PS state and so it neither checks TIM bits nor reports to the AP that it isn't power saving. Because of that authentication/[re]association fails. To fix authentication/[re]association stage of this issue, Auth, Assoc Resp and Reassoc Resp frames are transmitted disregarding of STA's power saving state. N.B. This patch doesn't fix further data frame exchange after authentication/[re]association. A patch in hostapd is required to fix that.

* tunnel: eliminate recursion fieldEric Dumazet2009-09-244-35/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | It seems recursion field from "struct ip_tunnel" is not anymore needed. recursion prevention is done at the upper level (in dev_queue_xmit()), since we use HARD_TX_LOCK protection for tunnels. This avoids a cache line ping pong on "struct ip_tunnel" : This structure should be now mostly read on xmit and receive paths.

Rewrite inner loop to: * account for delays better with less clock calls * more accurate timing of delay: - only delay if packet was successfully sent - if delay is 100ns and it takes 10ns to build packet then account for that * use wait_event_interruptible_timeout rather than open coding it.

* ipv4: check optlen for IP_MULTICAST_IF optionShan Wei2009-09-241-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Due to man page of setsockopt, if optlen is not valid, kernel should return -EINVAL. But a simple testcase as following, errno is 0, which means setsockopt is successful. addr.s_addr = inet_addr("192.1.2.3"); setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_IP, IP_MULTICAST_IF, &addr, 1); printf("errno is %d\n", errno); Xiaotian Feng(dfeng@redhat.com) caught the bug. We fix it firstly checking the availability of optlen and then dealing with the logic like other options.
