2009-09-01netns: embed ip6_dst_ops directlyAlexey Dobriyan
struct net::ipv6.ip6_dst_ops is separatedly dynamically allocated, but there is no fundamental reason for it. Embed it directly into struct netns_ipv6. For that: * move struct dst_ops into separate header to fix circular dependencies I honestly tried not to, it's pretty impossible to do other way * drop dynamical allocation, allocate together with netns For a change, remove struct dst_ops::dst_net, it's deducible by using container_of() given dst_ops pointer.

2009-09-01libata: add command name parsing for error outputRobert Hancock
This patch improve libata's output for error/notification messages to allow easier comprehension and debugging: When ATAPI commands issued through the SCSI layer fail, use SCSI functions to print the CDB in human-readable form instead of just dumping out the CDB in hex. Print out the name of the failed command (as defined by the ATA specification) in error handling output along with the raw register contents. When reporting status of ACPI taskfile commands executed on resume, also output the names of the commands being executed (or not) in readable form. Since the extra data for printing command names increases kernel size slightly, a config option has been added to allow disabling command name output (as well as some of the error register parsing) for those highly sensitive to kernel text size.

2009-09-01Revert Backoff [v3]: Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.Damian Lukowski
RFC 1122 specifies two threshold values R1 and R2 for connection timeouts, which may represent a number of allowed retransmissions or a timeout value. Currently linux uses sysctl_tcp_retries{1,2} to specify the thresholds in number of allowed retransmissions. For any desired threshold R2 (by means of time) one can specify tcp_retries2 (by means of number of retransmissions) such that TCP will not time out earlier than R2. This is the case, because the RTO schedule follows a fixed pattern, namely exponential backoff. However, the RTO behaviour is not predictable any more if RTO backoffs can be reverted, as it is the case in the draft "Make TCP more Robust to Long Connectivity Disruptions" (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-tcp-lcd). In the worst case TCP would time out a connection after 3.2 seconds, if the initial RTO equaled MIN_RTO and each backoff has been reverted. This patch introduces a function retransmits_timed_out(N), which calculates the timeout of a TCP connection, assuming an initial RTO of MIN_RTO and N unsuccessful, exponentially backed-off retransmissions. Whenever timeout decisions are made by comparing the retransmission counter to some value N, this function can be used, instead. The meaning of tcp_retries2 will be changed, as many more RTO retransmissions can occur than the value indicates. However, it yields a timeout which is similar to the one of an unpatched, exponentially backing off TCP in the same scenario. As no application could rely on an RTO greater than MIN_RTO, there should be no risk of a regression.

2009-09-01Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachableDamian Lukowski
Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure somewhere along the path. With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the patched TCP will operate as standard TCP. This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives. Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission is sent out immediately. Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already. Changes from v2: 1) Renaming of skb in tcp_v4_err() moved to another patch. 2) Reintroduced tcp_bound_rto() and __tcp_set_rto(). 3) Fixed code comments.

2009-09-01dcbnl: Add support for setapp/getapp commands to dcbnlYi Zou
This patch adds dcbnl command definitions to support setapp/getapp functionality from the IEEE 802.1Qaz Data Center Bridging Capability Exchange protocol (DCBX) specification. Section 3.3 defines the application protocol and its 802.1p user priority in DCBX, which is implemented here as a pair of setapp/getapp commands in the kernel dcbnl for setting and retrieving the user priority for an given application protocol. The protocol is identified by the combination of an id and an idtype. Currently, when idtype is 0, the corresponding id gives the ether type of this protocol, e.g., for FCoE, it will be 0x8906; when idtype is 1, then the corresponding id gives the TCP or UDP port number. For more information regarding DCBX spec., please refer to the following: http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2008/ az-wadekar-dcbx-capability-exchange-discovery-protocol-1108-v1.01.pdf Signed-off-by: Yi Zou <yi.zou@intel.com> Acked-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr <peter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-09-01net: Add ndo_fcoe_enable/ndo_fcoe_disable to net_device_opsYi Zou
Add ndo_fcoe_enable/_disable to net_device_ops so the corresponding HW can initialize itself for FCoE traffic or clean up after FCoE traffic is done. This is expected to be called by the kernel FCoE stack upon receiving a request for creating an FCoE instance on the corresponding netdev interface. When implemented by the actual HW, the HW driver check the op code to perform corresponding initialization or clean up for FCoE. The initialization normally includes allocating extra queues for FCoE, setting corresponding HW registers for FCoE, indicating FCoE offload features via netdev, etc. The clean-up would include releasing the resources allocated for FCoE.

2009-08-29async_tx: add support for asynchronous RAID6 recovery operationsDan Williams
async_raid6_2data_recov() recovers two data disk failures async_raid6_datap_recov() recovers a data disk and the P disk These routines are a port of the synchronous versions found in drivers/md/raid6recov.c. The primary difference is breaking out the xor operations into separate calls to async_xor. Two helper routines are introduced to perform scalar multiplication where needed. async_sum_product() multiplies two sources by scalar coefficients and then sums (xor) the result. async_mult() simply multiplies a single source by a scalar. This implemention also includes, in contrast to the original synchronous-only code, special case handling for the 4-disk and 5-disk array cases. In these situations the default N-disk algorithm will present 0-source or 1-source operations to dma devices. To cover for dma devices where the minimum source count is 2 we implement 4-disk and 5-disk handling in the recovery code.

2009-08-29async_tx: add support for asynchronous GF multiplicationDan Williams
[ Based on an original patch by Yuri Tikhonov ] This adds support for doing asynchronous GF multiplication by adding two additional functions to the async_tx API: async_gen_syndrome() does simultaneous XOR and Galois field multiplication of sources. async_syndrome_val() validates the given source buffers against known P and Q values. When a request is made to run async_pq against more than the hardware maximum number of supported sources we need to reuse the previous generated P and Q values as sources into the next operation. Care must be taken to remove Q from P' and P from Q'. For example to perform a 5 source pq op with hardware that only supports 4 sources at a time the following approach is taken: p, q = PQ(src0, src1, src2, src3, COEF({01}, {02}, {04}, {08})) p', q' = PQ(p, q, q, src4, COEF({00}, {01}, {00}, {10})) p' = p + q + q + src4 = p + src4 q' = {00}*p + {01}*q + {00}*q + {10}*src4 = q + {10}*src4 Note: 4 is the minimum acceptable maxpq otherwise we punt to synchronous-software path. The DMA_PREP_CONTINUE flag indicates to the driver to reuse p and q as sources (in the above manner) and fill the remaining slots up to maxpq with the new sources/coefficients. Note1: Some devices have native support for P+Q continuation and can skip this extra work. Devices with this capability can advertise it with dma_set_maxpq. It is up to each driver how to handle the DMA_PREP_CONTINUE flag. Note2: The api supports disabling the generation of P when generating Q, this is ignored by the synchronous path but is implemented by some dma devices to save unnecessary writes. In this case the continuation algorithm is simplified to only reuse Q as a source. Cc: H.

2009-08-29async_tx: remove walk of tx->parent chain in dma_wait_for_async_txDan Williams
We currently walk the parent chain when waiting for a given tx to complete however this walk may race with the driver cleanup routine. The routines in async_raid6_recov.c may fall back to the synchronous path at any point so we need to be prepared to call async_tx_quiesce() (which calls dma_wait_for_async_tx). To remove the ->parent walk we guarantee that every time a dependency is attached ->issue_pending() is invoked, then we can simply poll the initial descriptor until completion. This also allows for a lighter weight 'issue pending' implementation as there is no longer a requirement to iterate through all the channels' ->issue_pending() routines as long as operations have been submitted in an ordered chain. async_tx_issue_pending() is added for this case.

2009-08-29rcu: Create rcutree plugins to handle hotplug CPU for multi-level treesPaul E. McKenney
When offlining CPUs from a multi-level tree, there is the possibility of offlining the last CPU from a given node when there are preempted RCU read-side critical sections that started life on one of the CPUs on that node. In this case, the corresponding tasks will be enqueued via the task_struct's rcu_node_entry list_head onto one of the rcu_node's blocked_tasks[] lists. These tasks need to be moved somewhere else so that they will prevent the current grace period from ending. That somewhere is the root rcu_node. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2009-08-29itimers: Add tracepoints for itimerXiao Guangrong
Add tracepoints for all itimer variants: ITIMER_REAL, ITIMER_VIRTUAL and ITIMER_PROF. [ tglx: Fixed comments and made the output more readable, parseable and consistent. Replaced pid_vnr by pid_nr because the hrtimer callback can happen in any namespace ] Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca> Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Zhaolei <zhaolei@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4A7F8B6E.2010109@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
2009-08-29hrtimer: Add tracepoint for hrtimersXiao Guangrong
Add tracepoints which cover the life cycle of a hrtimer. The tracepoints are integrated with the already existing debug_object debug points as far as possible. [ tglx: Fixed comments, made output conistent, easier to read and parse. Fixed output for 32bit archs which do not use the scalar representation of ktime_t. Hand current time to trace_hrtimer_expiry_entry instead of calling get_time() inside of the trace assignment. ] Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@polymtl.ca> Cc: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Zhaolei <zhaolei@cn.fujitsu.com> LKML-Reference: <4A7F8B2B.5020908@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2009-08-29crypto: skcipher - Fix skcipher_dequeue_givcrypt NULL testHerbert Xu
As struct skcipher_givcrypt_request includes struct crypto_request at a non-zero offset, testing for NULL after converting the pointer returned by crypto_dequeue_request does not work. This can result in IPsec crashes when the queue is depleted. This patch fixes it by doing the pointer conversion only when the return value is non-NULL. In particular, we create a new function __crypto_dequeue_request that does the pointer conversion.

2009-08-28SFI: add capability to parse ACPI tablesFeng Tang
Extend SFI to access standard ACPI tables. (eg. the PCI MCFG) using sfi_acpi_table_parse(). Note that this is _not_ a hybrid ACPI + SFI mode. The platform boots in either ACPI mode or SFI mode. SFI runs only with acpi_disabled=1, which can be set at build-time via CONFIG_ACPI=n, or at boot time by the failure to find ACPI platform support. So this extension simply allows SFI-platforms to re-use existing standard table formats that happen to be defined to live in ACPI envelopes.

2009-08-28SFI: create linux/sfi.hFeng Tang
include/linux/include/sfi.h defines everything that customers of SFI need to know in order to use the SFI suport in the kernel. The primary API is sfi_table_parse(), where a driver or another part of the kernel can supply a handler to parse the named table. sfi.h also includes the currently defined table signatures and table formats.
