2012-07-12net: sched: add ipset ematchFlorian Westphal3-0/+146
Can be used to match packets against netfilter ip sets created via ipset(8). skb->sk_iif is used as 'incoming interface', skb->dev is 'outgoing interface'. Since ipset is usually called from netfilter, the ematch initializes a fake xt_action_param, pulls the ip header into the linear area and also sets skb->data to the IP header (otherwise matching Layer 4 set types doesn't work).

2012-07-126lowpan: rework fragment-deleting routinealex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com1-19/+20
6lowpan module starts collecting incomming frames and fragments right after lowpan_module_init() therefor it will be better to clean unfinished fragments in lowpan_cleanup_module() function instead of doing it when link goes down. Changed spinlocks type to prevent deadlock with expired timer event and removed unused one. Signed-off-by: Alexander Smirnov <alex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-126lowpan: fix tag variable sizealex.bluesman.smirnov@gmail.com1-1/+1
Function lowpan_alloc_new_frame() takes u8 tag as an argument. However, its only caller, lowpan_process_data() passes down a u16. Hence, the tag value can get corrupted. This prevent 6lowpan fragment reassembly of a message when the fragment tag value is over 256.

2012-07-12tcp: TCP Small QueuesEric Dumazet7-1/+173
This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues) TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc & device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat problem. sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit, allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a given time. TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use. As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets. This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the already queued skbs. Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive, using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO. Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering per bulk sender : < 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO) < 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms) I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes. As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one tasklest per cpu for performance reasons. If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag. This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(), to eventually send new segments. [1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable [2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time, but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler. These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will have no effect.

2012-07-11net: Fix memory leak - vlan_info structAmir Hanania1-0/+3
In driver reload test there is a memory leak. The structure vlan_info was not freed when the driver was removed. It was not released since the nr_vids var is one after last vlan was removed. The nr_vids is one, since vlan zero is added to the interface when the interface is being set, but the vlan zero is not deleted at unregister. Fix - delete vlan zero when we unregister the device.

2012-07-11ipv4: Calling ->cow_metrics() now is a bug.David S. Miller1-28/+2
Nothing every writes to ipv4 metrics any longer. PMTU is stored in rt->rt_pmtu. Dynamic TCP metrics are stored in a special TCP metrics cache, completely outside of the routes.

2012-07-11tcp: Maintain dynamic metrics in local cache.David S. Miller2-93/+464
Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs. Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics. The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low latency and low overhead. A simple hash is legitimate because we only make metrics blobs for fully established connections. Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking. But the basic design seems sound.
