2013-01-14ipv6 netevent: Remove old_neigh from netevent_redirect.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明
The only user is cxgb3 driver. old_neigh is used to check device change, but it must not happen on redirect. In this sense, we can remove old_neigh argument. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-01-14drivers/net: Clean up orphaned probes in Space.cPaul Gortmaker
The removal of the 8390 EISA drivers actually comprises the complete content of the EISA probe block, so we can now remove that block, and its hook into the unified probe. Note that the deleted comment mentions PCI probes, but they long since moved elsewhere, so no PCI probes are touched here. We get rid of the orphaned EISA probe prototypes, and a couple of left over MCA probe prototypes at the same time. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-12batman-adv: reduce local TT entry timeout to 10 minutesAntonio Quartulli
The current timeout is set to one hour. However a client connected to the mesh network will always generate traffic. In the worst case it will send ARP requests every 4 or 5 minutes. On the other hand having a long timeout means storing dead entries for one hour and it leads to very big trans-tables containing useless clients.

2013-01-11net: Add support for XPS without sysfs being definedAlexander Duyck

2013-01-11net: Rewrite netif_set_xps_queues to address several issuesAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to address several issues I found within the netif_set_xps_queues function. If the allocation of one of the maps to be assigned to new_dev_maps failed we could end up with the device map in an inconsistent state since we had already worked through a number of CPUs and removed or added the queue. To address that I split the process into several steps. The first of which is just the allocation of updated maps for CPUs that will need larger maps to store the queue. By doing this we can fail gracefully without actually altering the contents of the current device map. The second issue I found was the fact that we were always allocating a new device map even if we were not adding any queues. I have updated the code so that we only allocate a new device map if we are adding queues, otherwise if we are not adding any queues to CPUs we just skip to the removal process. The last change I made was to reuse the code from remove_xps_queue to remove the queue from the CPU. By making this change we can be consistent in how we go about adding and removing the queues from the CPUs. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-01-11net: Rewrite netif_reset_xps_queue to allow for better code reuseAlexander Duyck
This patch does a minor refactor on netif_reset_xps_queue to address a few items I noticed. First is the fact that we are doing removal of queues in both netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queue. Since there is no need to have the code in two places I am pushing it out into a separate function and will come back in another patch and reuse the code in netif_set_xps_queue. The second item this change addresses is the fact that the Tx queues were not getting their numa_node value cleared as a part of the XPS queue reset. This patch resolves that by resetting the numa_node value if the dev_maps value is set. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-01-11net: Add functions netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queueAlexander Duyck
This patch adds two functions, netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queue. The main idea behind these two functions is to provide a mechanism through which drivers can update their defaults in regards to XPS. Currently no such mechanism exists and as a result we cannot use XPS for things such as ATR which would require a basic configuration to start in which the Tx queues are mapped to CPUs via a 1:1 mapping. With this change I am making it possible for drivers such as ixgbe to be able to use the XPS feature by controlling the default configuration.

2013-01-11net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_txAlexander Duyck

2013-01-10softirq: reduce latenciesEric Dumazet
In various network workloads, __do_softirq() latencies can be up to 20 ms if HZ=1000, and 200 ms if HZ=100. This is because we iterate 10 times in the softirq dispatcher, and some actions can consume a lot of cycles. This patch changes the fallback to ksoftirqd condition to : - A time limit of 2 ms. - need_resched() being set on current task When one of this condition is met, we wakeup ksoftirqd for further softirq processing if we still have pending softirqs. Using need_resched() as the only condition can trigger RCU stalls, as we can keep BH disabled for too long. I ran several benchmarks and got no significant difference in throughput, but a very significant reduction of latencies (one order of magnitude) : In following bench, 200 antagonist "netperf -t TCP_RR" are started in background, using all available cpus. Then we start one "netperf -t TCP_RR", bound to the cpu handling the NIC IRQ (hard+soft) Before patch : # netperf -H 7.7.7.84 -t TCP_RR -T2,2 -- -k RT_LATENCY,MIN_LATENCY,MAX_LATENCY,P50_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,MEAN_LATENCY,STDDEV_LATENCY MIGRATED TCP REQUEST/RESPONSE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.7.84 () port 0 AF_INET : first burst 0 : cpu bind RT_LATENCY=550110.424 MIN_LATENCY=146858 MAX_LATENCY=997109 P50_LATENCY=305000 P90_LATENCY=550000 P99_LATENCY=710000 MEAN_LATENCY=376989.12 STDDEV_LATENCY=184046.92 After patch : # netperf -H 7.7.7.84 -t TCP_RR -T2,2 -- -k RT_LATENCY,MIN_LATENCY,MAX_LATENCY,P50_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,MEAN_LATENCY,STDDEV_LATENCY MIGRATED TCP REQUEST/RESPONSE TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 7.7.7.84 () port 0 AF_INET : first burst 0 : cpu bind RT_LATENCY=40545.492 MIN_LATENCY=9834 MAX_LATENCY=78366 P50_LATENCY=33583 P90_LATENCY=59000 P99_LATENCY=69000 MEAN_LATENCY=38364.67 STDDEV_LATENCY=12865.26 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-10net_sched: more precise pkt_len computationEric Dumazet
One long standing problem with TSO/GSO/GRO packets is that skb->len doesn't represent a precise amount of bytes on wire. Headers are only accounted for the first segment. For TCP, thats typically 66 bytes per 1448 bytes segment missing, an error of 4.5 % for normal MSS value. As consequences : 1) TBF/CBQ/HTB/NETEM/... can send more bytes than the assigned limits. 2) Device stats are slightly under estimated as well. Fix this by taking account of headers in qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len computation. Packet schedulers should use qdisc pkt_len instead of skb->len for their bandwidth limitations, and TSO enabled devices drivers could use pkt_len if their statistics are not hardware assisted, and if they don't scratch skb->cb[] first word. Both egress and ingress paths work, thanks to commit fda55eca5a (net: introduce skb_transport_header_was_set()) : If GRO built a GSO packet, it also set the transport header for us.
