| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the CAIF Payload message the Packet Type indication must be set to UNCLASSIFIED in order to allow packet prioritization in the modem's network stack. Otherwise TCP-Ack is not prioritized in the modems transmit queue. Signed-off-by: Sjur Brændeland <sjur.brandeland@stericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We may unregister as a linger while still registered as a regular request (e.g., in reset_osd). Incorrectly clearing r_osd there leads to a null pointer dereference in __send_request. Also simplify the parallel check in __unregister_request() where we just removed r_osd_item and know it's empty. Signed-off-by: Sage Weil <sage@newdream.net>

This fixes an oops easily triggered under UML by while true ; do mount ... ; umount ... ; done Also fix an outdated comment: the flush in ceph_destroy_client only flushes OSD connections out.

* | | | | | v3 ethtool: add ntuple flow specifier data to network flow classifierAlexander Duyck2011-04-111-7/+7

The idea is to allow ntuple to be displayed via the network flow classification interface. The first patch had some left over stuff from the original flow extension flags I had added. That bit is removed in this patch. The second had some left over comments that stated we ignored bits in the masks when we actually match them. This work is based on input from Ben Hutchings.

The main motivation behind this patch is to eventually replace the ntuple interfaces entirely with the network flow classifier interfaces. This allows the device drivers to maintain the ntuple check internally while using the network flow classifier interface for setting up and displaying rules.

With dynamic routing, where the peer might be reachable through eth0 today and eth1 tomorrow, it's difficult to keep rp_filter enabled unless fake routes to the remote subnets are configured on the interface currently used to reach the peer. IPsec provides a much stronger anti-spoofing policy than rp_filter, so this patch disables the rp_filter for packets with a security path.

This became the cause to return "IP_PKTINFO's ->ipi_ifindex == 0". To fix it, this does: 1) Add "int rt_route_iif;" to struct rtable 2) For input routes, always set rt_route_iif to same value as rt_iif 3) For output routes, always set rt_route_iif to zero. Set rt_iif as it is done currently. 4) Change rt_is_{output,input}_route() to test rt_route_iif Signed-off-by: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David S.

Looking more closely I found that: 1) The affected sockets were all ipv6 2) They weren't getting steered because sk->sk_rxhash was never set from the incomming skbs on that socket. This was occuring because there are several points in the IPv4 tcp and udp code which save the rxhash value when a new connection is established. Those calls to sock_rps_save_rxhash were never added to the corresponding ipv6 code paths. This patch adds those calls. Tested by myself to properly enable RFS functionalty on ipv6.

Also, it cannot be set via ip6_route_output: this function uses the passed sock struct to determine if this flag is required (by testing for nonzero sk_bound_dev_if).

This may lead to corrupted read and communication shutdown. The bug has been in the module since it's first inclusion into linux kernel. [Patrick: the bug is real, but without practical consequence since the largest amount of sequence-of members we parse is 30.] Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

This blocks routing updates, device enumeration, and various important operations that one might want to keep running while hunting for the flashing LED. We need to drop the RTNL lock during this operation, but currently the core implementation is a thin wrapper around a driver operation and drivers may well depend upon holding the lock. Define a new driver operation 'set_phys_id' with an argument that sets the ID indicator on/off/inactive/active (the last optional, for any driver or firmware that prefers to handle blinking asynchronously). When this is defined, the ethtool core drops the lock while waiting and only acquires it around calls to this operation. Deprecate the 'phys_id' operation in favour of this. It can be removed once all in-tree drivers are converted. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

This functionality is configurable per device using ethtool. Presumably, this feature would only be useful when the driver does not touch the data. The feature is turned on by default if a device indicates that it does some form of checksum offload; it is off by default for devices that do no checksum offload or indicate no checksum is necessary. For the former case copy-checksum is probably done anyway, in the latter case the device is likely loopback in which case the no cache copy is probably not beneficial. This patch was tested using 200 instances of netperf TCP_RR with 1400 byte request and one byte reply. Platform is 16 core AMD x86. No-cache copy disabled: 672703 tps, 97.13% utilization 50/90/99% latency:244.31 484.205 1028.41 No-cache copy enabled: 702113 tps, 96.16% utilization, 50/90/99% latency 238.56 467.56 956.955 Using 14000 byte request and response sizes demonstrate the effects more dramatically: No-cache copy disabled: 79571 tps, 34.34 %utlization 50/90/95% latency 1584.46 2319.59 5001.76 No-cache copy enabled: 83856 tps, 34.81% utilization 50/90/95% latency 2508.42 2622.62 2735.88 Note especially the effect on latency tail (95th percentile). This seems to provide a nice performance improvement and is consistent in the tests I ran. Presumably, this would provide the greatest benfits in the presence of an application workload stressing the cache and a lot of transmit data happening.

Note: 1. It does NOT enforce the restriction on the relationship max_age and forward delay or hello time because in existing implementation these are set as independant operations. 2. If STP is disabled, there is no restriction on forward delay 3. No restriction on holding time because users use Linux code to act as hub or be sticky. 4. Although standard allow 0-255, Linux only allows 0-63 for port priority because more bits are reserved for port number.

Example: # ip link add link dev br0 type bridge # ip link del dev br0 The change required rearranging initializtion code to deal with being called by create link. Most of the initialization happens in br_dev_setup, but allocation of stats is done in ndo_init callback to deal with allocation failure.
