2008-06-16pkt_sched: Change HTB_HYSTERESIS to a runtime parameter htb_hysteresis.Jesper Dangaard Brouer
Add a htb_hysteresis parameter to htb_sch.ko and by sysfs magic make it runtime adjustable via /sys/module/sch_htb/parameters/htb_hysteresis mode 640. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> Acked-by: Martin Devera <devik@cdi.cz> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-06-16pkt_sched: HTB scheduler, change default hysteresis mode to off.Jesper Dangaard Brouer
The HTB hysteresis mode reduce the CPU load, but at the cost of scheduling accuracy. On ADSL links (512 kbit/s upstream), this inaccuracy introduce significant jitter, enought to disturbe VoIP.

2008-05-03sch_htb: remove from event queue in htb_parent_to_leaf()Jarek Poplawski
There is lack of removing a class from the event queue while changing from parent to leaf which can cause corruption of this rb tree. This patch fixes a bug introduced by my patch: "sch_htb: turn intermediate classes into leaves" commit: 160d5e10f87b1dc88fd9b84b31b1718e0fd76398. Many thanks to Jan 'yanek' Bortl for finding a way to reproduce this rare bug and narrowing the test case, which made possible proper diagnosing. This patch is recommended for all kernels starting from 2.6.20. Reported-and-tested-by: Jan 'yanek' Bortl <yanek@ya.bofh.cz> Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-05-02net: Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() to the transmit timeout functionArjan van de Ven
WARN_ON_ONCE() gives a stack trace including the full module list. Having this in the kernel dump for the timeout case in the generic netdev watchdog will help us see quicker which driver is involved. It also allows us to collect statistics and patterns in terms of which drivers have this event occuring.

2008-04-14[NET_SCHED] sch_api: fix qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() loopJarek Poplawski
TC_H_MAJ(parentid) for root classes is the same as for ingress, and if ingress qdisc is created qdisc_lookup() returns its pointer (without ingress NULL is returned). After this all qdisc_lookups give the same, and we get endless loop. (I don't know how this could hide for so long - it should trigger with every leaf class deleted if it's qdisc isn't empty.) After this fix qdisc_lookup() is omitted both for ingress and root parents, but looking for root is only wasting a little time here...

Deleting of nonroot hnodes mostly doesn't work in u32_delete(): refcnt == 1 is expected, but such hnodes' refcnts are initialized with 0 and charged only with "link" nodes.

2008-03-28[NET]: Add preemption point in qdisc_runHerbert Xu
The qdisc_run loop is currently unbounded and runs entirely in a softirq. This is bad as it may create an unbounded softirq run. This patch fixes this by calling need_resched and breaking out if necessary. It also adds a break out if the jiffies value changes since that would indicate we've been transmitting for too long which starves other softirqs.

2008-03-23sch_htb: fix "too many events" situationMartin Devera
HTB is event driven algorithm and part of its work is to apply scheduled events at proper times. It tried to defend itself from livelock by processing only limited number of events per dequeue. Because of faster computers some users already hit this hardcoded limit. This patch limits processing up to 2 jiffies (why not 1 jiffie ? because it might stop prematurely when only fraction of jiffie remains).

If userspace passes a unknown match index into em_meta, then em_meta_change will return an error and the data for the match will not be set. This then causes an null pointer dereference when the cleanup is done in the error path via tcf_em_tree_destroy. Since the tree structure comes kzalloc, it is initialized to NULL.

Some examples: - Classic SFQ hash: tc filter add ... flow hash \ keys src,dst,proto,proto-src,proto-dst divisor 1024 - Classic SFQ hash, but using information from conntrack to work properly in combination with NAT: tc filter add ... flow hash \ keys nfct-src,nfct-dst,proto,nfct-proto-src,nfct-proto-dst divisor 1024 - Map destination IPs of 192.168.0.0/24 to classids 1-257: tc filter add ... flow map \ key dst addend -192.168.0.0 divisor 256 - alternatively: tc filter add ... flow map \ key dst and 0xff - similar, but reverse ordered: tc filter add ... flow map \ key dst and 0xff xor 0xff Perturbation is currently not supported because we can't reliable kill the timer on destruction.
