2008-08-07[Bluetooth] Add parameters to control BNEP header compressionMarcel Holtmann1-3/+12
The Bluetooth qualification for PAN demands testing with BNEP header compression disabled. This is actually pretty stupid and the Linux implementation outsmarts the test system since it compresses whenever possible. So to pass qualification two need parameters have been added to control the compression of source and destination headers. Signed-off-by: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@holtmann.org>

2008-08-07mac80211: fix use of skb->cb for mesh forwardingLuis Carlos Cobo5-90/+106
Now we deal with mesh forwarding before the 802.11->802.3 conversion, thus eliminating a few unnecessary steps. The next hop lookup is called from ieee80211_master_start_xmit() instead of subif_start_xmit(). Until the next hop is found, RA in the frame will be all zeroes for frames originating from the device. For forwarded frames, RA will contain the TA of the received frame, which will be necessary to send a path error if a next hop is not found.

2008-08-07pktgen: multiqueue etc.Robert Olsson1-3/+34
Sofar far pktgen have had a restriction to only use one device per kernel thread. With the new multiqueue architecture this is no longer adequate. The patch below is an effort to remove this by in pktgen configuration adding a tag to the device name a la eth0@0 etc. The tag is used for usual device config just as before. Also a new flag is introduced to mirror queue_map with sending threads smp_processor_id() QUEUE_MAP_CPU. An example: We use 4 CPU's to send to one 10g interface (eth0) and we use the new tagging to send a mix of packet sizes, 64, 576 and 1500 bytes. Also we use TX queues according to smp_processor_id() PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_0 pgset "add_device eth0@0" PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_1 pgset "add_device eth0@1" PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_2 pgset "add_device eth0@2" PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_3 pgset "add_device eth0@3" ....

2008-08-06tcp: Fix kernel panic when calling tcp_v(4/6)_md5_do_lookupGui Jianfeng5-8/+12
If the following packet flow happen, kernel will panic. MathineA MathineB SYN ----------------------> SYN+ACK <---------------------- ACK(bad seq) ----------------------> When a bad seq ACK is received, tcp_v4_md5_do_lookup(skb->sk, ip_hdr(skb)->daddr)) is finally called by tcp_v4_reqsk_send_ack(), but the first parameter(skb->sk) is NULL at that moment, so kernel panic happens.

2008-08-05bridge: Eliminate unnecessary forward delayStephen Hemminger1-7/+18
From: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Based upon original patch by Herbert Xu, which contained the following problem description: -------------------- When the forward delay is set to zero, we still delay the setting of the forwarding state by one or possibly two timers depending on whether STP is enabled. This could either turn out to be instantaneous, or horribly slow depending on the load of the machine. As there is nothing preventing us from enabling forwarding straight away, this patch eliminates this potential delay by executing the code directly if the forward delay is zero. The effect of this problem is that immediately after the carrier comes on a port, the bridge will drop all packets received from that port until it enters forwarding mode, thus causing unnecessary packet loss. Note that this patch doesn't fully remove the delay due to the link watcher. We should also check the carrier state when we are about to drop an incoming packet because the port is disabled. But that's for another patch. -------------------- This version of the fix takes a different approach, in that it just does the state change directly. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-08-04net_sched: Add qdisc __NET_XMIT_STOLEN flagJarek Poplawski10-33/+54
Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed: "The other problem that affects all qdiscs supporting actions is TC_ACT_QUEUED/TC_ACT_STOLEN getting mapped to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS even though the packet is not queued, corrupting upper qdiscs' qlen counters." and later explained: "The reason why it translates it at all seems to be to not increase the drops counter. Within a single qdisc this could be avoided by other means easily, upper qdiscs would still increase the counter when we return anything besides NET_XMIT_SUCCESS though. This means we need a new NET_XMIT return value to indicate this to the upper qdiscs. So I'd suggest to introduce NET_XMIT_STOLEN, return that to upper qdiscs and translate it to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS in dev_queue_xmit, similar to NET_XMIT_BYPASS." David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> noticed: "Maybe these NET_XMIT_* values being passed around should be a set of bits. They could be composed of base meanings, combined with specific attributes. So you could say "NET_XMIT_DROP | __NET_XMIT_NO_DROP_COUNT" The attributes get masked out by the top-level ->enqueue() caller, such that the base meanings are the only thing that make their way up into the stack. If it's only about communication within the qdisc tree, let's simply code it that way." This patch is trying to realize these ideas.

2008-08-03sctp: Drop ipfargok in sctp_xmit functionHerbert Xu3-9/+14
The ipfragok flag controls whether the packet may be fragmented either on the local host on beyond. The latter is only valid on IPv4. In fact, we never want to do the latter even on IPv4 when PMTU is enabled. This is because even though we can't fragment packets within SCTP due to the prtocol's inherent faults, we can still fragment it at IP layer. By setting the DF bit we will improve the PMTU process. RFC 2960 only says that we SHOULD clear the DF bit in this case, so we're compliant even if we set the DF bit. In fact RFC 4960 no longer has this statement. Once we make this change, we only need to control the local fragmentation. There is already a bit in the skb which controls that, local_df. So this patch sets that instead of using the ipfragok argument. The only complication is that there isn't a struct sock object per transport, so for IPv4 we have to resort to changing the pmtudisc field for every packet. This should be safe though as the protocol is single-threaded. Note that after this patch we can remove ipfragok from the rest of the stack too.

2008-08-03net: use software GSO for SG+CSUM capable netdevicesLennert Buytenhek1-0/+4
If a netdevice does not support hardware GSO, allowing the stack to use GSO anyway and then splitting the GSO skb into MSS-sized pieces as it is handed to the netdevice for transmitting is likely still a win as far as throughput and/or CPU usage are concerned, since it reduces the number of trips through the output path. This patch enables the use of GSO on any netdevice that supports SG. If a GSO skb is then sent to a netdevice that supports SG but does not support hardware GSO, net/core/dev.c:dev_hard_start_xmit() will take care of doing the necessary GSO segmentation in software.

2008-08-03net: fix missing pneigh entries in the neighbor seq_file codeChris Larson1-5/+6
When pneigh entries exist, but the user's read buffer isn't sufficient to hold them all, one of the pneigh entries will be missing from the results. In neigh_get_idx_any, the number of elements which neigh_get_idx encountered is not correctly subtracted from the position number before the call to pneigh_get_idx. neigh_get_idx reduces the position by 1 for each call to neigh_get_next, but it does not reduce it by one for the first element (neigh_get_first). The patch alters the neigh_get_idx and pneigh_get_idx functions to subtract one from pos, for the first element, when pos is non-zero.

2008-08-03net: in the first call to neigh_seq_next, call neigh_get_first, not ↵Chris Larson1-1/+1
neigh_get_idx. neigh_seq_next won't be called both with *pos > 0 && v == SEQ_START_TOKEN, so there's no point calling neigh_get_idx when we're on the start token, just call neigh_get_first directly.

2008-08-02pkt_sched: Use qdisc_lock() on already sampled root qdisc.David S. Miller2-8/+8
Based upon a bug report by Jeff Kirsher. Don't use qdisc_root_lock() in these cases as the root qdisc could have been changed, and we'd thus lock the wrong object. Tested by Emil S Tantilov who confirms that this seems to fix the problem. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2008-08-01rfkill: query EV_SW states when rfkill-input (re)?connects to a input deviceHenrique de Moraes Holschuh1-15/+39
Every time a new input device that is capable of one of the rfkill EV_SW events (currently only SW_RFKILL_ALL) is connected to rfkill-input, we must check the states of the input EV_SW switches and take action. Otherwise, we will ignore the initial switch state. We also need to re-check the states of the EV_SW switches after a device that was under an exclusive grab is released back to us, since we got no input events from that device while it was grabbed.
