2012-07-16sctp: Adjust PMTU updates to accomodate route invalidation.David S. Miller
This adjusts the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached in sockets). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-16ipv4: Add helper inet_csk_update_pmtu().David S. Miller
This abstracts away the call to dst_ops->update_pmtu() so that we can transparently handle the fact that, in the future, the dst itself can be invalidated by the PMTU update (when we have non-host routes cached in sockets). So we try to rebuild the socket cached route after the method invocation if necessary. This isn't used by SCTP because it needs to cache dsts per-transport, and thus will need it's own local version of this helper. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next John Linville says: ==================== Several drivers see updates: mwifiex, ath9k, iwlwifi, brcmsmac, wlcore/wl12xx/wl18xx, and a handful of others. The bcma bus got a lot of attention from Hauke Mehrtens. The cfg80211 component gets a flurry of patches for multi-channel support, and the mac80211 component gets the first few VHT (11ac) and 60GHz (11ad) patches. This also includes the removal of the iwmc3200 drivers, since the hardware never became available to normal people. Additionally, the NFC subsystem gets a series of updates. According to Samuel, "Here are the interesting bits: - A better error management for the HCI stack. - An LLCP "late" binding implementation for a better NFC SAP usage. SAPs are now reserved only when there's a client for it. - Support for Sony RC-S360 (a.k.a. PaSoRi) pn533 based dongle. We can read and write NFC tags and also establish a p2p link with this dongle now. - A few LLCP fixes." Finally, this includes another pull of the fixes from the wireless tree in order to resolve some merge issues. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-13ipv4: Don't store a rule pointer in fib_result.David S. Miller
We only use it to fetch the rule's tclassid, so just store the tclassid there instead. This also decreases the size of fib_result by a full 8 bytes on 64-bit. On 32-bits it's a wash. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-12net: sched: add ipset ematchFlorian Westphal
Can be used to match packets against netfilter ip sets created via ipset(8). skb->sk_iif is used as 'incoming interface', skb->dev is 'outgoing interface'. Since ipset is usually called from netfilter, the ematch initializes a fake xt_action_param, pulls the ip header into the linear area and also sets skb->data to the IP header (otherwise matching Layer 4 set types doesn't work).

2012-07-11tcp: TCP Small QueuesEric Dumazet
This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues) TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc & device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat problem. sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit, allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a given time. TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use. As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets. This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the already queued skbs. Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive, using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO. Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering per bulk sender : < 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO) < 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms) I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes. As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one tasklest per cpu for performance reasons. If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag. This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(), to eventually send new segments. [1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable [2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time, but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler. These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will have no effect.

2012-07-10tcp: Maintain dynamic metrics in local cache.David S. Miller
Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs. Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics. The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low latency and low overhead. A simple hash is legitimate because we only make metrics blobs for fully established connections. Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking. But the basic design seems sound.

2012-07-07{NET, IB}/mlx4: Add device managed flow steering firmware APIHadar Hen Zion
The driver is modified to support three operation modes. If supported by firmware use the device managed flow steering API, that which we call device managed steering mode. Else, if the firmware supports the B0 steering mode use it, and finally, if none of the above, use the A0 steering mode. When the steering mode is device managed, the code is modified such that L2 based rules set by the mlx4_en driver for Ethernet unicast and multicast, and the IB stack multicast attach calls done through the mlx4_ib driver are all routed to use the device managed API. When attaching rule using device managed flow steering API, the firmware returns a 64 bit registration id, which is to be provided during detach. Currently the firmware is always programmed during HCA initialization to use standard L2 hashing. Future work should be done to allow configuring the flow-steering hash function with common, non proprietary means.
