2014-06-15udp: call __skb_checksum_complete when doing full checksumTom Herbert
In __udp_lib_checksum_complete check if checksum is being done over all the data (len is equal to skb->len) and if it is call __skb_checksum_complete instead of __skb_checksum_complete_head. This allows checksum to be saved in checksum complete. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The DRR scheduler requires that items on the active list are work conserving, i.e. do not hold on to skbs for throttling purposes, etc. Attaching e.g. tbf renders DRR useless because all other classes on the active list are delayed as well. So, warn users that this configuration won't work as expected; we already do this in couple of other qdiscs, see e.g. commit b00355db3f88d96810a60011a30cfb2c3469409d ('pkt_sched: sch_hfsc: sch_htb: Add non-work-conserving warning handler') The 'const' change is needed to avoid compiler warning ("discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type"). tested with: drr_hier() { parent=$1 classes=$2 for i in $(seq 1 $classes); do classid=$parent$(printf %x $i) tc class add dev eth0 parent $parent classid $classid drr tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent $classid tbf rate 64kbit burst 256kbit limit 64kbit done } tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: drr drr_hier 1: 32 tc filter add dev eth0 protocol all pref 1 parent 1: handle 1 flow hash keys dst perturb 1 divisor 32 Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-06-02inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_countEric Dumazet
Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP generator. linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge cost on servers disabling MTU discovery. 1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes 2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs, with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load. 3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth is about 20. 4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id()) 5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively. IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect' Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time, so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments with a recycled ID. We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP as a key. ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it belongs (it is only used from this file) secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed. Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-05-26mac80211: add a single-transaction driver op to switch contextsLuciano Coelho
In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch (ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the transaction). But some drivers may not support switching the channel context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on the fly, without unassigning it first. To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

2014-05-22tcp: make cwnd-limited checks measurement-based, and gentlerNeal Cardwell
Experience with the recent e114a710aa50 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited checking to improve congestion control") has shown that there are common cases where that commit can cause cwnd to be much larger than necessary. This leads to TSO autosizing cooking skbs that are too large, among other things. The main problems seemed to be: (1) That commit attempted to predict the future behavior of the connection by looking at the write queue (if TSO or TSQ limit sending). That prediction sometimes overestimated future outstanding packets. (2) That commit always allowed cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding packets (even in congestion avoidance, where this is not needed). This commit improves both of these, by: (1) Switching to a measurement-based approach where we explicitly track the largest number of packets in flight during the past window ("max_packets_out"), and remember whether we were cwnd-limited at the moment we finished sending that flight. (2) Only allowing cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding packets ("max_packets_out") in slow start. In congestion avoidance mode we now only allow cwnd to grow if it was fully utilized.

2014-05-22cfg80211: allow RSSI compensationEmmanuel Grumbach
Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel 2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case). The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset. Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver. A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI value is still valid.

This fixes two warnings when making htmldocs (at least): Warning(include/net/mac80211.h:3428): No description found for parameter 'csa_counter_offs[IEEE80211_MAX_CSA_COUNTERS_NUM]' Warning(include/net/mac80211.h:3428): Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'csa_offs' description in 'ieee80211_mutable_offsets' Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-05-19cfg80211: add documentation for max_num_csa_countersLuciano Coelho
Move the comment in the structure to a description of the max_num_csa_counters field in the docbook area. This fixes a warning when building htmldocs (at least): Warning(include/net/cfg80211.h:3064): No description found for parameter 'max_num_csa_counters' Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: defer all object release via rcuPablo Neira Ayuso
Now that all objects are released in the reverse order via the transaction infrastructure, we can enqueue the release via call_rcu to save one synchronize_rcu. For small rule-sets loaded via nft -f, it now takes around 50ms less here. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: remove skb and nlh from context structurePablo Neira Ayuso
Instead of caching the original skbuff that contains the netlink messages, this stores the netlink message sequence number, the netlink portID and the report flag. This helps to prepare the introduction of the object release via call_rcu. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: use new transaction infrastructure to handle elementsPablo Neira Ayuso
Leave the set content in consistent state if we fail to load the batch. Use the new generic transaction infrastructure to achieve this. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: use new transaction infrastructure to handle tablePablo Neira Ayuso
This patch speeds up rule-set updates and it also provides a way to revert updates and leave things in consistent state in case that the batch needs to be aborted. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: use new transaction infrastructure to handle chainPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch speeds up rule-set updates and it also introduces a way to revert chain updates if the batch is aborted. The idea is to store the changes in the transaction to apply that in the commit step. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: use new transaction infrastructure to handle setsPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch reworks the nf_tables API so set updates are included in the same batch that contains rule updates. This speeds up rule-set updates since we skip a dialog of four messages between kernel and user-space (two on each direction), from: 1) create the set and send netlink message to the kernel 2) process the response from the kernel that contains the allocated name. 3) add the set elements and send netlink message to the kernel. 4) process the response from the kernel (to check for errors). To: 1) add the set to the batch. 2) add the set elements to the batch. 3) add the rule that points to the set. 4) send batch to the kernel. This also introduces an internal set ID (NFTA_SET_ID) that is unique in the batch so set elements and rules can refer to new sets. Backward compatibility has been only retained in userspace, this means that new nft versions can talk to the kernel both in the new and the old fashion.

2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: add message type to transactionsPablo Neira Ayuso
The patch adds message type to the transaction to simplify the commit the and abort routines. Yet another step forward in the generalisation of the transaction infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: generalise transaction infrastructurePablo Neira Ayuso
This patch generalises the existing rule transaction infrastructure so it can be used to handle set, table and chain object transactions as well. The transaction provides a data area that stores private information depending on the transaction type. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-05-19netfilter: nf_tables: deconstify table and chain in context structurePablo Neira Ayuso
The new transaction infrastructure updates the family, table and chain objects in the context structure, so let's deconstify them. While at it, move the context structure initialization routine to the top of the source file as it will be also used from the table and chain routines.
