2009-10-05af_packet: add interframe drop cmsg (v6)Neil Horman2-0/+35
Add Ancilliary data to better represent loss information I've had a few requests recently to provide more detail regarding frame loss during an AF_PACKET packet capture session. Specifically the requestors want to see where in a packet sequence frames were lost, i.e. they want to see that 40 frames were lost between frames 302 and 303 in a packet capture file. In order to do this we need: 1) The kernel to export this data to user space 2) The applications to make use of it This patch addresses item (1). It does this by doing the following: A) Anytime we drop a frame for which we would increment po->stats.tp_drops, we also no increment a stats called po->stats.tp_gap. B) Every time we successfully enqueue a frame to sk_receive_queue, we record the value of po->stats.tp_gap in skb->mark. skb->cb would nominally be the place to record this, but since all the space there is used up, we're overloading skb->mark. Its safe to do since any enqueued packet is guaranteed to be unshared at this point, and skb->mark isn't used for anything else in the rx path to the application. After we record tp_gap in the skb, we zero po->stats.tp_gap. This allows us to keep a counter of the number of frames lost between any two enqueued packets C) When the application goes to dequeue a frame from the packet socket, we look at skb->mark for that frame. If it is non-zero, we add a cmsg chunk to the msghdr of level SOL_PACKET and type PACKET_GAPDATA. Its a 32 bit integer that represents the number of frames lost between this packet and the last previous frame received. Note there is a chance that if there is frame loss after a receive, and then the socket is closed, some gap data might be lost. This is covered by the use of the PACKET_AUXDATA socket option, which gives total loss data. With a bit of math, the final gap can be determined that way. I've tested this patch myself, and it works well.

2009-10-05icmp: No need to call sk_write_space()Eric Dumazet1-0/+4
We can make icmp messages tx completion callback a litle bit faster. Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE sk flag tells sock_wfree() to not call sk_write_space() on a socket we know no thread is posssibly waiting for write space. (on per cpu kernel internal icmp sockets only) This avoids the sock_def_write_space() call and read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)/read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock) calls as well. We avoid three atomic ops. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-10-03tty: Avoid dropping ldisc_mutex over hangup tty re-initializationLinus Torvalds1-5/+2
A couple of people have hit the WARN_ON() in drivers/char/tty_io.c, tty_open() that is unhappy about seeing the tty line discipline go away during the tty hangup. See for example http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14255 and the reason is that we do the tty_ldisc_halt() outside the ldisc_mutex in order to be able to flush the scheduled work without a deadlock with vhangup_work. However, it turns out that we can solve this particular case by - using "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" in tty_ldisc_halt(), which waits for just the particular work, rather than synchronizing with any random outstanding pending work. This won't deadlock, since the buf.work we synchronize with doesn't care about the ldisc_mutex, it just flushes the tty ldisc buffers. - realize that for this particular case, we don't need to wait for any hangup work, because we are inside the hangup codepaths ourselves. so as a result we can just drop the flush_scheduled_work() entirely, and then move the tty_ldisc_halt() call to inside the mutex. That way we never expose the partially torn down ldisc state to tty_open(), and hold the ldisc_mutex over the whole sequence.

The m32r SMP kernel hanged-up during boot operation, because the CPU_BOOT_IPI was called instead of CALL_FUNC_SINGLE_IPI (CPU_BOOT_IPI had no side effect at that time because the 2nd core had already been started up), as a result, csd_unlock() was not called, then a dead lock occurred in csd_lock_wait() after the detection of Compact Flash memory as IDE generic disk.

o Do not allow more than max_dispatch requests from an async queue, if some sync request has finished recently. This is in the hope that sync activity is still going on in the system and we might receive a sync request soon. Most likely from a sync queue which finished a request and we did not enable idling on it. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2009-10-03ACPI: EC: Don't parse DSDT for EC early init on CompalAlexey Starikovskiy1-0/+15
Compal DSDT breaks if scanned early, while we need early scan for almost all ASUS machines.
