2011-06-09cnic: Improve NETDEV_UP event handlingMichael Chan
During NETDEV_UP, we use symbol_get() to get the net driver's cnic probe function. This sometimes doesn't work if NETDEV_UP happens right after NETDEV_REGISTER and the net driver is still running module init code. As a result, the cnic device may not be discovered. We fix this by probing on all NETDEV events if the device's netif_running state is up. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-06-09cnic: Fix race conditions with firmwareMichael Chan
During iSCSI connection terminations, if the target is also terminating at about the same time, the firmware may not complete the driver's request to close or reset the connection. This is fixed by handling other events (instead of the expected completion event) as an indication that the driver's request has been rejected.

2011-06-09cnic: Fix interrupt logicMichael Chan
We need to keep looping until cnic_get_kcqes() returns 0. cnic_get_kcqes() returns a maximum of 64 entries. If there are more entries in the queue and we don't loop back, the remaining entries may not be serviced for a long time. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-06-09inetpeer: lower false sharing effectEric Dumazet
Profiles show false sharing in addr_compare() because refcnt/dtime changes dirty the first inet_peer cache line, where are lying the keys used at lookup time. If many cpus are calling inet_getpeer() and inet_putpeer(), or need frag ids, addr_compare() is in 2nd position in "perf top".

2011-06-09inetpeer: remove unused listEric Dumazet
Andi Kleen and Tim Chen reported huge contention on inetpeer unused_peers.lock, on memcached workload on a 40 core machine, with disabled route cache. It appears we constantly flip peers refcnt between 0 and 1 values, and we must insert/remove peers from unused_peers.list, holding a contended spinlock. Remove this list completely and perform a garbage collection on-the-fly, at lookup time, using the expired nodes we met during the tree traversal. This removes a lot of code, makes locking more standard, and obsoletes two sysctls (inet_peer_gc_mintime and inet_peer_gc_maxtime). This also removes two pointers in inet_peer structure. There is still a false sharing effect because refcnt is in first cache line of object [were the links and keys used by lookups are located], we might move it at the end of inet_peer structure to let this first cache line mostly read by cpus.

2011-06-09tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT sample from 3WHS for the passive open sideJerry Chu
This patch lowers the default initRTO from 3secs to 1sec per RFC2988bis. It falls back to 3secs if the SYN or SYN-ACK packet has been retransmitted, AND the TCP timestamp option is not on. It also adds support to take RTT sample during 3WHS on the passive open side, just like its active open counterpart, and uses it, if valid, to seed the initRTO for the data transmission phase. The patch also resets ssthresh to its initial default at the beginning of the data transmission phase, and reduces cwnd to 1 if there has been MORE THAN ONE retransmission during 3WHS per RFC5681.

2011-06-08v2 ethtool: remove support for ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLEAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to remove all support for displaying an ntuple as strings via ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE. The reason for this change is due to the fact that multiple issues have been found including: - Multiple buffer overruns for strings being displayed. - Incorrect filters displayed, cleared filters with ring of -2 are displayed - Setting get_rx_ntuple displays no rules if defined. - Endianess wrong on displayed values. - Hard limit of 1024 filters makes display functionality extremely limited The only driver that had supported this interface was ixgbe. Since it no longer uses the interface and due to the issues mentioned above I am submitting this patch to remove it. v2: Updated based on comments from Ben Hutchings - Left ETH_SS_NTUPLE_FILTERS in code but commented on it being deprecated - Removed ethtool_rx_ntuple_list and ethtool_rx_ntuple_flow_spec_container - Left ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE but commented it as deprecated Also cleaned up set_rx_ntuple since there is no flow spec container to maintain we can drop all the code for the alloc and free of it and just return ops->set_rx_ntuple().

2011-06-07mwifiex: disable transmission buffer aggregation for AMSDU packetsYogesh Ashok Powar
Padding per MSDU will affect the length of next packet and hence the exact length of next packet is uncertain here. Also, aggregation of transmission buffer, while downloading the data to the card, wont gain much on the AMSDU packets as the AMSDU packets utilizes the transmission buffer space to the maximum (adapter->tx_buf_size).

2011-06-07mac80211: Stop BA session event from deviceShahar Levi
Some devices support BT/WLAN co-existence algorigthms. In order not to harm the system performance and user experience, the device requests not to allow any RX BA session and tear down existing RX BA sessions based on system constraints such as periodic BT activity that needs to limit WLAN activity (eg.SCO or A2DP). In such cases, the intention is to limit the duration of the RX PPDU and therefore prevent the peer device to use A-MPDU aggregation.
