2008-03-24SVCRDMA: Use only 1 RDMA read scatter entry for iWARP adaptersRoland Dreier
The iWARP protocol limits RDMA read requests to a single scatter entry. NFS/RDMA has code in rdma_read_max_sge() that is supposed to limit the sge_count for RDMA read requests to 1, but the code to do that is inside an #ifdef RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP block. In the mainline kernel at least, RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP is an enum and not a preprocessor #define, so the #ifdef'ed code is never compiled. In my test of a kernel build with -j8 on an NFS/RDMA mount, this problem eventually leads to trouble starting with: svcrdma: Error posting send = -22 svcrdma : RDMA_READ error = -22 and things go downhill from there. The trivial fix is to delete the #ifdef guard. The check seems to be a remnant of when the NFS/RDMA code was not merged and needed to compile against multiple kernel versions, although I don't think it ever worked as intended. In any case now that the code is upstream there's no need to test whether the RDMA_TRANSPORT_IWARP constant is defined or not. Without this patch, my kernel build on an NFS/RDMA mount using NetEffect adapters quickly and 100% reproducibly failed with an error like: ld: final link failed: Software caused connection abort With the patch applied I was able to complete a kernel build on the same setup. (Tom Tucker says this is "actually an _ancient_ remnant when it had to compile against iWARP vs. non-iWARP enabled OFA trees.")

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).

2008-03-22[TCP]: Let skbs grow over a page on fast peersHerbert Xu
While testing the virtio-net driver on KVM with TSO I noticed that TSO performance with a 1500 MTU is significantly worse compared to the performance of non-TSO with a 16436 MTU. The packet dump shows that most of the packets sent are smaller than a page. Looking at the code this actually is quite obvious as it always stop extending the packet if it's the first packet yet to be sent and if it's larger than the MSS. Since each extension is bound by the page size, this means that (given a 1500 MTU) we're very unlikely to construct packets greater than a page, provided that the receiver and the path is fast enough so that packets can always be sent immediately. The fix is also quite obvious. The push calls inside the loop is just an optimisation so that we don't end up doing all the sending at the end of the loop. Therefore there is no specific reason why it has to do so at MSS boundaries. For TSO, the most natural extension of this optimisation is to do the pushing once the skb exceeds the TSO size goal. This is what the patch does and testing with KVM shows that the TSO performance with a 1500 MTU easily surpasses that of a 16436 MTU and indeed the packet sizes sent are generally larger than 16436. I don't see any obvious downsides for slower peers or connections, but it would be prudent to test this extensively to ensure that those cases don't regress.

2008-03-20[TCP]: Fix shrinking windows with window scalingPatrick McHardy
When selecting a new window, tcp_select_window() tries not to shrink the offered window by using the maximum of the remaining offered window size and the newly calculated window size. The newly calculated window size is always a multiple of the window scaling factor, the remaining window size however might not be since it depends on rcv_wup/rcv_nxt. This means we're effectively shrinking the window when scaling it down. The dump below shows the problem (scaling factor 2^7): - Window size of 557 (71296) is advertised, up to 3111907257: IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . ack 3111835961 win 557 <...> - New window size of 514 (65792) is advertised, up to 3111907217, 40 bytes below the last end: IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . 3113575668:3113577116(1448) ack 3111841425 win 514 <...> The number 40 results from downscaling the remaining window: 3111907257 - 3111841425 = 65832 65832 / 2^7 = 514 65832 % 2^7 = 40 If the sender uses up the entire window before it is shrunk, this can have chaotic effects on the connection. When sending ACKs, tcp_acceptable_seq() will notice that the window has been shrunk since tcp_wnd_end() is before tp->snd_nxt, which makes it choose tcp_wnd_end() as sequence number. This will fail the receivers checks in tcp_sequence() however since it is before it's tp->rcv_wup, making it respond with a dupack. If both sides are in this condition, this leads to a constant flood of ACKs until the connection times out. Make sure the window is never shrunk by aligning the remaining window to the window scaling factor. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-03-20[SCTP]: Fix a race between module load and protosw accessVlad Yasevich
There is a race is SCTP between the loading of the module and the access by the socket layer to the protocol functions. In particular, a list of addresss that SCTP maintains is not initialized prior to the registration with the protosw. Thus it is possible for a user application to gain access to SCTP functions before everything has been initialized. The problem shows up as odd crashes during connection initializtion when we try to access the SCTP address list. The solution is to refactor how we do registration and initialize the lists prior to registering with the protosw. Care must be taken since the address list initialization depends on some other pieces of SCTP initialization. Also the clean-up in case of failure now also needs to be refactored.

From: Andrew Schulman <andrex@alumni.utexas.net> xt_time_match() in net/netfilter/xt_time.c in kernel 2.6.24 never matches on Sundays. On my host I have a rule like iptables -A OUTPUT -m time --weekdays Sun -j REJECT and it never matches. The problem is in localtime_2(), which uses r->weekday = (4 + r->dse) % 7; to map the epoch day onto a weekday in {0,...,6}. In particular this gives 0 for Sundays. But 0 has to be wrong; a weekday of 0 can never match. xt_time_match() has if (!(info->weekdays_match & (1 << current_time.weekday))) return false; and when current_time.weekday = 0, the result of the & is always zero, even when info->weekdays_match = XT_TIME_ALL_WEEKDAYS = 0xFE.

2008-03-05SCTP: Fix chunk parameter processing bugGui Jianfeng
If an address family is not listed in "Supported Address Types" parameter(INIT Chunk), but the packet is sent by that family, this address family should be considered as supported by peer. Otherwise, an error condition will occur. For instance, if kernel receives an IPV6 SCTP INIT chunk with "Support Address Types" parameter which indicates just supporting IPV4 Address family. Kernel will reply an IPV6 SCTP INIT ACK packet, but the source ipv6 address in ipv6 header will be vacant. This is not correct. refer to RFC4460 as following: IMPLEMENTATION NOTE: If an SCTP endpoint lists in the 'Supported Address Types' parameter either IPv4 or IPv6, but uses the other family for sending the packet containing the INIT chunk, or if it also lists addresses of the other family in the INIT chunk, then the address family that is not listed in the 'Supported Address Types' parameter SHOULD also be considered as supported by the receiver of the INIT chunk. The receiver of the INIT chunk SHOULD NOT respond with any kind of error indication. Here is a fix to comply to RFC.

2008-03-04[IPCONFIG]: The kernel gets no IP from some DHCP serversStephen Hemminger
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Based upon a patch by Marcel Wappler: This patch fixes a DHCP issue of the kernel: some DHCP servers (i.e. in the Linksys WRT54Gv5) are very strict about the contents of the DHCPDISCOVER packet they receive from clients. Table 5 in RFC2131 page 36 requests the fields 'ciaddr' and 'siaddr' MUST be set to '0'. These DHCP servers ignore Linux kernel's DHCP discovery packets with these two fields set to '255.255.255.255' (in contrast to popular DHCP clients, such as 'dhclient' or 'udhcpc'). This leads to a not booting system. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-03-04rc80211-pid: fix rate adjustmentStefano Brivio
Merge rate_control_pid_shift_adjust() to rate_control_pid_adjust_rate() in order to make the learning algorithm aware of constraints on rates. Also add some comments and rename variables. This fixes a bug which prevented 802.11b/g non-AP STAs from working with 802.11b only AP STAs. This patch was originally destined for 2.6.26, and is being backported to fix a user reported problem in post-2.6.24 kernels.
