2013-05-27MPLS: Add limited GSO supportSimon Horman
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets. The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets whose skbs are GSO. SKB Usage: When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do the following to skb metadata: * Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet. skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch. * Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet. * Set skb->network_header to correspond to the end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack. I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich. That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls() and was used to exercise this code. The datapath patch is against the Open vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point. Features: I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially consistent with the handling of other protocols. Jesse, I understand that you have some ideas here. I am more than happy to change my implementation. This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices to advertise features supported for MPLS packets. A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support hardware MPLS GSO offload. Currently no devices support this and MPLS GSO always falls back to software. Alternate Implementation: One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features() and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to __skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment(). I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled into the kernel or inserted as a module. MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross. Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE" by Pravin B Shelar.

In order to mitigate ongoing incresase in the size of struct skbuff use 16 bit integer offsets rather than pointers for inner_*_headers.

2013-05-27phy: allow drivers to flag a PHY device as internalFlorian Fainelli
libphy currently always reports a PHY as an external transceiver from the ethtool output. This is inaccurate, because some drivers should be able to tell that a PHY device is an internal transceiver of an Ethernet MAC. Add a new flag (PHY_IS_INTERNAL) which can be set by PHY drivers just like other flags, and a corresponding helper: phy_is_internal() which can be used by networking drivers to query if a given PHY device is internal.

2013-05-25net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.Lorenzo Colitti
This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in 2011. Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or duplication of bugs in the future. Caveats: - Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported. - There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6; everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range. - The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets properly. Tested with a patched copy of ping6 and using raw socket calls. Compiles and works with all of CONFIG_IPV6={n,m,y}. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-05-20phy: add phy_mac_interrupt() to use with PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPTFlorian Fainelli
There is currently no way for an Ethernet MAC driver servicing PHY link interrupts to notify this to the PHY state machine without defining its own state machine. Since most drivers are not so special, introduce a helper: phy_mac_interrupt() which can be called from a link up/down interrupt routine to update the PHY state machine. To avoid code duplication some refactoring has been done to expose the workqueue and its corresponding callback internally.

2013-05-20phy: fix the use of PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPTFlorian Fainelli
When a PHY device is registered with the special IRQ value PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT (-2) it will not properly be handled by the PHY library: - it continues to poll its register, while we do not want this because such PHY link events or register changes are serviced by an Ethernet MAC - it will still try to configure PHY interrupts at the PHY level, such interrupts do not exist at the PHY but at the MAC level - the state machine only handles PHY_POLL, but should also handle PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT similarly This patch updates the PHY state machine and initialization paths to account for the specific PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT. Based on an earlier patch by Thomas Petazzoni, and reworked to add the missing bits. Add a helper phy_interrupt_is_valid() which specifically tests for a PHY interrupt not to be PHY_POLL or PHY_IGNORE_INTERRUPT and use it throughout the code.

2013-05-20rps: selective flow shedding during softnet overflowWillem de Bruijn
A cpu executing the network receive path sheds packets when its input queue grows to netdev_max_backlog. A single high rate flow (such as a spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu. This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this (set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold. Tested: Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0, kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7 each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is dropped and the server processes its complete load. The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet socket tap, ..).

2013-05-20tty/vt: Fix vc_deallocate() lock orderPeter Hurley
Now that the tty port owns the flip buffers and i/o is allowed from the driver even when no tty is attached, the destruction of the tty port (and the flip buffers) must ensure that no outstanding work is pending. Unfortunately, this creates a lock order problem with the console_lock (see attached lockdep report [1] below). For single console deallocation, drop the console_lock prior to port destruction. When multiple console deallocation, defer port destruction until the consoles have been deallocated. tty_port_destroy() is not required if the port has not been used; remove from vc_allocate() failure path.

2013-05-19tcp: remove bad timeout logic in fast recoveryYuchung Cheng
tcp_timeout_skb() was intended to trigger fast recovery on timeout, unfortunately in reality it often causes spurious retransmission storms during fast recovery. The particular sign is a fast retransmit over the highest sacked sequence (SND.FACK). Currently the RTO timer re-arming (as in RFC6298) offers a nice cushion to avoid spurious timeout: when SND.UNA advances the sender re-arms RTO and extends the timeout by icsk_rto. The sender does not offset the time elapsed since the packet at SND.UNA was sent. But if the next (DUP)ACK arrives later than ~RTTVAR and triggers tcp_fastretrans_alert(), then tcp_timeout_skb() will mark any packet sent before the icsk_rto interval lost, including one that's above the highest sacked sequence. Most likely a large part of scorebard will be marked. If most packets are not lost then the subsequent DUPACKs with new SACK blocks will cause the sender to continue to retransmit packets beyond SND.FACK spuriously. Even if only one packet is lost the sender may falsely retransmit almost the entire window. The situation becomes common in the world of bufferbloat: the RTT continues to grow as the queue builds up but RTTVAR remains small and close to the minimum 200ms. If a data packet is lost and the DUPACK triggered by the next data packet is slightly delayed, then a spurious retransmission storm forms. As the original comment on tcp_timeout_skb() suggests: the usefulness of this feature is questionable. It also wastes cycles walking the sack scoreboard and is actually harmful because of false recovery. It's time to remove this.

2013-05-19ipv6: add support of peer addressNicolas Dichtel
This patch adds the support of peer address for IPv6. For example, it is possible to specify the remote end of a 6inY tunnel. This was already possible in IPv4: ip addr add ip1 peer ip2 dev dev1 The peer address is specified with IFA_ADDRESS and the local address with IFA_LOCAL (like explained in include/uapi/linux/if_addr.h). Note that the API is not changed, because before this patch, it was not possible to specify two different addresses in IFA_LOCAL and IFA_REMOTE. There is a small change for the dump: if the peer is different from ::, IFA_ADDRESS will contain the peer address instead of the local address.

2013-05-17PCI: acpiphp: Re-enumerate devices when host bridge receives Bus CheckYinghai Lu
When a PCI host bridge device receives a Bus Check notification, we must re-enumerate starting with the bridge to discover changes (devices that have been added or removed). Prior to 668192b678 ("PCI: acpiphp: Move host bridge hotplug to pci_root.c"), this happened in _handle_hotplug_event_bridge(). After that commit, _handle_hotplug_event_bridge() is not installed for host bridges, and the host bridge notify handler, _handle_hotplug_event_root() did not re-enumerate. This patch adds re-enumeration to _handle_hotplug_event_root(). This fixes cases where we don't notice the addition or removal of PCI devices, e.g., the PCI-to-USB ExpressCard in the bugzilla below.
