2011-08-07dp83640: increase receive time stamp buffer sizeRichard Cochran
The dp83640 buffers receive time stamps from special PHY status frames, matching them to received PTP packets in a work queue. Because the timeout for orphaned time stamps is so long and the buffer is so small, the driver can drop time stamps under moderate PTP traffic. This commit fixes the issue by decreasing the timeout to (at least) one timer tick and increasing the buffer size.

2011-08-07gianfar: fix fiper alignment after resetting the timeRichard Cochran
After resetting the time, the PPS signals on the FIPER output channels are incorrectly offset from the clock time, as can be readily verified by a looping back the FIPER to the external time stamp input. Despite its name, setting the "Fiper Realignment Disable" bit seems to fix the problem, at least on the P2020. Also, following the example code from the Freescale BSP, it is not really necessary to disable and re-enable the timer in order to reprogram the FIPER. (The documentation is rather unclear on this point. It seems that writing to the alarm register also disables the FIPER.)

2011-08-07netfilter: TCP and raw fix for ip_route_me_harderJulian Anastasov
TCP in some cases uses different global (raw) socket to send RST and ACK. The transparent flag is not set there. Currently, it is a problem for rerouting after the previous change. Fix it by simplifying the checks in ip_route_me_harder and use FLOWI_FLAG_ANYSRC even for sockets. It looks safe because the initial routing allowed this source address to be used and now we just have to make sure the packet is rerouted. As a side effect this also allows rerouting for normal raw sockets that use spoofed source addresses which was not possible even before we eliminated the ip_route_input call.

2011-08-07net: Make userland include of netlink.h more sane.David S. Miller
Currently userland will barf when including linux/netlink.h unless it precisely includes sys/socket.h first. The issue is where the definition of "sa_family_t" comes from. We've been back and forth on how to fix this issue in the past, see: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.bugs.general/622621 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/143380 Ben Hutchings suggested we take a hint from how we handle the sockaddr_storage type. First we define a "__kernel_sa_family_t" to linux/socket.h that is always defined. Then if __KERNEL__ is defined, we also define "sa_family_t" as equal to "__kernel_sa_family_t". Then in places like linux/netlink.h we use __kernel_sa_family_t in user visible datastructures. Reported-by: Michel Machado <michel@digirati.com.br> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-08-07ipv4: fix the reusing of routing cache entriesJulian Anastasov
compare_keys and ip_route_input_common rely on rt_oif for distinguishing of input and output routes with same keys values. But sometimes the input route has also same hash chain (keyed by iif != 0) with the output routes (keyed by orig_oif=0). Problem visible if running with small number of rhash_entries. Fix them to use rt_route_iif instead. By this way input route can not be returned to users that request output route.

2011-08-07arm: remove "optimized" SHA1 routinesLinus Torvalds
Since commit 1eb19a12bd22 ("lib/sha1: use the git implementation of SHA-1"), the ARM SHA1 routines no longer work. The reason? They depended on the larger 320-byte workspace, and now the sha1 workspace is just 16 words (64 bytes). So the assembly version would overwrite the stack randomly. The optimized asm version is also probably slower than the new improved C version, so there's no reason to keep it around. At least that was the case in git, where what appears to be the same assembly language version was removed two years ago because the optimized C BLK_SHA1 code was faster.

2011-08-06vfs: optimize inode cache access patternsLinus Torvalds
The inode structure layout is largely random, and some of the vfs paths really do care. The path lookup in particular is already quite D$ intensive, and profiles show that accessing the 'inode->i_op->xyz' fields is quite costly. We already optimized the dcache to not unnecessarily load the d_op structure for members that are often NULL using the DCACHE_OP_xyz bits in dentry->d_flags, and this does something very similar for the inode ops that are used during pathname lookup. It also re-orders the fields so that the fields accessed by 'stat' are together at the beginning of the inode structure, and roughly in the order accessed. The effect of this seems to be in the 1-2% range for an empty kernel "make -j" run (which is fairly kernel-intensive, mostly in filename lookup), so it's visible. The numbers are fairly noisy, though, and likely depend a lot on exact microarchitecture. So there's more tuning to be done. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2011-08-06exofs: ios: Move to a per inode components & device-tableBoaz Harrosh
Exofs raid engine was saving on memory space by having a single layout-info, single pid, and a single device-table, global to the filesystem. Then passing a credential and object_id info at the io_state level, private for each inode. It would also devise this contraption of rotating the device table view for each inode->ino to spread out the device usage. This is not compatible with the pnfs-objects standard, demanding that each inode can have it's own layout-info, device-table, and each object component it's own pid, oid and creds. So: Bring exofs raid engine to be usable for generic pnfs-objects use by: * Define an exofs_comp structure that holds obj_id and credential info. * Break up exofs_layout struct to an exofs_components structure that holds a possible array of exofs_comp and the array of devices + the size of the arrays. * Add a "comps" parameter to get_io_state() that specifies the ids creds and device array to use for each IO. This enables to keep the layout global, but the device-table view, creds and IDs at the inode level. It only adds two 64bit to each inode, since some of these members already existed in another form. * ios raid engine now access layout-info and comps-info through the passed pointers. Everything is pre-prepared by caller for generic access of these structures and arrays. At the exofs Level: * Super block holds an exofs_components struct that holds the device array, previously in layout. The devices there are in device-table order. The device-array is twice bigger and repeats the device-table twice so now each inode's device array can point to a random device and have a round-robin view of the table, making it compatible to previous exofs versions. * Each inode has an exofs_components struct that is initialized at load time, with it's own view of the device table IDs and creds. When doing IO this gets passed to the io_state together with the layout. While preforming this change. Bugs where found where credentials with the wrong IDs where used to access the different SB objects (super.c). As well as some dead code. It was never noticed because the target we use does not check the credentials. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com>
