2011-11-22atm: Allow MSG_PEEK for atm socketsJorge Boncompte [DTI2]
Now that the vcc backends do the right thing with respect the receive queue on registration, allow MSK_PEEK for atm sockets. This allows a userspace program to inspect the packets and decide what backend to use to handle them. Signed-off-by: Jorge Boncompte [DTI2] <jorge@dti2.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-22net: add network priority cgroup infrastructure (v4)Neil Horman
This patch adds in the infrastructure code to create the network priority cgroup. The cgroup, in addition to the standard processes file creates two control files: 1) prioidx - This is a read-only file that exports the index of this cgroup. This is a value that is both arbitrary and unique to a cgroup in this subsystem, and is used to index the per-device priority map 2) priomap - This is a writeable file. On read it reports a table of 2-tuples <name:priority> where name is the name of a network interface and priority is indicates the priority assigned to frames egresessing on the named interface and originating from a pid in this cgroup This cgroup allows for skb priority to be set prior to a root qdisc getting selected. This is benenficial for DCB enabled systems, in that it allows for any application to use dcb configured priorities so without application modification Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> CC: Robert Love <robert.w.love@intel.com> CC: "David S.

2011-11-21netfilter: use jump_label for nf_hooksEric Dumazet
On configs where CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y, we can replace in fast path a load/compare/conditional jump by a single jump with no dcache reference. Jump target is modified as soon as nf_hooks[pf][hook] switches from empty state to non empty states. jump_label state is kept outside of nf_hooks array so has no cost on cpu caches. This patch removes the test on CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG : No need to call nf_hook_slow() at all if nf_hooks[pf][hook] is empty, this didnt give useful information, but slowed down things a lot.

2011-11-18ipv4: fix redirect handlingEric Dumazet
commit f39925dbde77 (ipv4: Cache learned redirect information in inetpeer.) introduced a regression in ICMP redirect handling. It assumed ipv4_dst_check() would be called because all possible routes were attached to the inetpeer we modify in ip_rt_redirect(), but thats not true. commit 7cc9150ebe (route: fix ICMP redirect validation) tried to fix this but solution was not complete. (It fixed only one route) So we must lookup existing routes (including different TOS values) and call check_peer_redir() on them.

2011-11-14IPv6 routing, NLM_F_* flag support: REPLACE and EXCL flags support, warn ↵Matti Vaittinen
about missing CREATE flag The support for NLM_F_* flags at IPv6 routing requests. If NLM_F_CREATE flag is not defined for RTM_NEWROUTE request, warning is printed, but no error is returned. Instead new route is added. Later NLM_F_CREATE may be required for new route creation. Exception is when NLM_F_REPLACE flag is given without NLM_F_CREATE, and no matching route is found. In this case it should be safe to assume that the request issuer is familiar with NLM_F_* flags, and does really not want route to be created. Specifying NLM_F_REPLACE flag will now make the kernel to search for matching route, and replace it with new one. If no route is found and NLM_F_CREATE is specified as well, then new route is created. Also, specifying NLM_F_EXCL will yield returning of error if matching route is found.

2011-11-14net: introduce build_skb()Eric Dumazet
One of the thing we discussed during netdev 2011 conference was the idea to change some network drivers to allocate/populate their skb at RX completion time, right before feeding the skb to network stack. In old days, we allocated skbs when populating the RX ring. This means bringing into cpu cache sk_buff and skb_shared_info cache lines (since we clear/initialize them), then 'queue' skb->data to NIC. By the time NIC fills a frame in skb->data buffer and host can process it, cpu probably threw away the cache lines from its caches, because lot of things happened between the allocation and final use. So the deal would be to allocate only the data buffer for the NIC to populate its RX ring buffer. And use build_skb() at RX completion to attach a data buffer (now filled with an ethernet frame) to a new skb, initialize the skb_shared_info portion, and give the hot skb to network stack. build_skb() is the function to allocate an skb, caller providing the data buffer that should be attached to it. Drivers are expected to call skb_reserve() right after build_skb() to adjust skb->data to the Ethernet frame (usually skipping NET_SKB_PAD and NET_IP_ALIGN, but some drivers might add a hardware provided alignment) Data provided to build_skb() MUST have been allocated by a prior kmalloc() call, with enough room to add SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) bytes at the end of the data without corrupting incoming frame. data = kmalloc(NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + 1536 + SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)), GFP_ATOMIC); ... skb = build_skb(data); if (!skb) { recycle_data(data); } else { skb_reserve(skb, NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN); ... } Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Eilon Greenstein <eilong@broadcom.com> CC: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> CC: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> CC: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@mojatatu.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> CC: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org> CC: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> CC: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-11-14ip6_tunnel: copy parms.name after register_netdeviceJosh Boyer
Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in ip6_tnl_create because register_netdevice will now create a valid name. This works for the net_device itself. However the tunnel keeps a copy of the name in the parms structure for the ip6_tnl associated with the tunnel. parms.name is set by copying the net_device name in ip6_tnl_dev_init_gen. That function is called from ip6_tnl_dev_init in ip6_tnl_create, but it is done before register_netdevice is called so the name is set to a bogus value in the parms.name structure. This shows up if you do a simple tunnel add, followed by a tunnel show: [root@localhost ~]# ip -6 tunnel add remote fec0::100 local fec0::200 [root@localhost ~]# ip -6 tunnel show ip6tnl0: ipv6/ipv6 remote :: local :: encaplimit 0 hoplimit 0 tclass 0x00 flowlabel 0x00000 (flowinfo 0x00000000) ip6tnl%d: ipv6/ipv6 remote fec0::100 local fec0::200 encaplimit 4 hoplimit 64 tclass 0x00 flowlabel 0x00000 (flowinfo 0x00000000) [root@localhost ~]# Fix this by moving the strcpy out of ip6_tnl_dev_init_gen, and calling it after register_netdevice has successfully returned.
