      ====================
      Increase the limit of tuntap queues
      
      Networking under KVM works best if we allocate a per-vCPU rx and tx
      queue in a virtual NIC. This requires a per-vCPU queue on the host side.
      Modern physical NICs have multiqueue support for large number of queues.
      To scale vNIC to run multiple queues parallel to maximum number of vCPU's
      we need to increase number of queues support in tuntap.

      	 Michael.S.Tsirkin- We can use sysctl for limiting max number
                                  of queues.
      
      This series is to increase the number of tuntap queues. Original work is being
      done by 'jasowang@redhat.com'. I am taking this 'https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/6/19/29'
      patch series as a reference. As per discussion in the patch series:
      
      There were two reasons which prevented us from increasing number of tun queues:
      
      - The netdev_queue array in netdevice were allocated through kmalloc, which may
        cause a high order memory allocation too when we have several queues.
        E.g. sizeof(netdev_queue) is 320, which means a high order allocation would
        happens when the device has more than 16 queues.
      
      - We store the hash buckets in tun_struct which results a very large size of
        tun_struct, this high order memory allocation fail easily when the memory is
        fragmented.
      
      The patch 60877a32 increases the number of tx
      queues. Memory allocation fallback to vzalloc() when kmalloc() fails.
      
      This series tries to address following issues:
      
      - Increase the number of netdev_queue queues for rx similarly its done for tx
        queues by falling back to vzalloc() when memory allocation with kmalloc() fails.
      
      - Increase number of queues to 256, maximum number is equal to maximum number
        of vCPUS allowed in a guest.
      
      I have also done testing with multiple parallel Netperf sessions for different
      combination of queues and CPU's. It seems to be working fine without much increase
      in cpu load with increase in number of queues. I also see good increase in throughput
      with increase in number of queues. Though i had limitation of 8 physical CPU's.
      
      For this test: Two Hosts(Host1 & Host2) are directly connected with cable
      Host1 is running Guest1. Data is sent from Host2 to Guest1 via Host1.
      
      Host kernel: 3.19.0-rc2+, AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 6320

      tuntap: Increase the number of queues in tun. · baf71c5c
      Pankaj Gupta 提交于
      Networking under kvm works best if we allocate a per-vCPU RX and TX
      queue in a virtual NIC. This requires a per-vCPU queue on the host side.
      
      It is now safe to increase the maximum number of queues.
      Preceding patch: 'net: allow large number of rx queues'
      made sure this won't cause failures due to high order memory
      allocations. Increase it to 256: this is the max number of vCPUs
      KVM supports.
      
      Size of tun_struct changes from 8512 to 10496 after this patch. This keeps
      pages allocated for tun_struct before and after the patch to 3.

      net: allow large number of rx queues · 10595902
      Pankaj Gupta 提交于
      netif_alloc_rx_queues() uses kcalloc() to allocate memory
      for "struct netdev_queue *_rx" array.
      If we are doing large rx queue allocation kcalloc() might
      fail, so this patch does a fallback to vzalloc().
      Similar implementation is done for tx queue allocation in
      netif_alloc_netdev_queues().
      
      We avoid failure of high order memory allocation
      with the help of vzalloc(), this allows us to do large
      rx and tx queue allocation which in turn helps us to
      increase the number of queues in tun.
      
      As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path,
      __GFP_REPEAT flag is used with kzalloc() to do this fallback
      only when really needed.

      bridge: support for vlan range in setlink/dellink
      
      This series adds new flags in IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO to indicate
      vlan range.
      
      Will post corresponding iproute2 patches if these get accepted.
      
      v1-> v2
          - changed patches to use a nested list attribute
          IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_LIST as suggested by scott feldman
          - dropped notification changes from the series. Will post them
          separately after this range message is accepted.
      
      v2 -> v3
          - incorporated some review feedback
          - include patches to fill vlan ranges during getlink
          - Dropped IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_LIST. I think it may get
          confusing to userspace if we introduce yet another way to
          send lists. With getlink already sending nested
          IFLA_BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO in IFLA_AF_SPEC, It seems better to
          use the existing format for lists and just use the flags from v2
          to mark vlan ranges

      bonding: cleanup bond_opts array · 7bfa0145
      Jonathan Toppins 提交于
      Remove the empty array element initializer and size the array with
      BOND_OPT_LAST so the compiler will complain if more elements are in
      there than should be.
      
      An interesting unwanted side effect of this initializer is that if one
      inserts new options into the middle of the array then this initializer
      will zero out the option that equals BOND_OPT_TLB_DYNAMIC_LB+1.
      
      Example:
      Extend the OPTS enum:
      enum {
         ...
         BOND_OPT_TLB_DYNAMIC_LB,
         BOND_OPT_LACP_NEW1,
         BOND_OPT_LAST
      };
      
      Now insert into bond_opts array:
      static const struct bond_option bond_opts[] = {
            ...
            [BOND_OPT_LACP_RATE] = { .... unchanged stuff .... },
            [BOND_OPT_LACP_NEW1] = { ... new stuff ... },
            ...
            [BOND_OPT_TLB_DYNAMIC_LB] = { .... unchanged stuff ....},
            { } // MARK A
      };
      
      Since BOND_OPT_LACP_NEW1 = BOND_OPT_TLB_DYNAMIC_LB+1, the last
      initializer (MARK A) will overwrite the contents of BOND_OPT_LACP_NEW1
      and can be easily viewed with the crash utility.

      ====================
      tipc: make tipc support namespace
      
      This patchset aims to add net namespace support for TIPC stack.
      
      Currently TIPC module declares the following global resources:
      - TIPC network idenfication number
      - TIPC node table
      - TIPC bearer list table
      - TIPC broadcast link
      - TIPC socket reference table
      - TIPC name service table
      - TIPC node address
      - TIPC service subscriber server
      - TIPC random value
      - TIPC netlink
      
      In order that TIPC is aware of namespace, above each resource must be
      allocated, initialized and destroyed inside per namespace. Therefore,
      the major works of this patchset are to isolate these global resources
      and make them private for each namespace. However, before these changes
      come true, some necessary preparation works must be first done: convert
      socket reference table with generic rhashtable, cleanup core.c and
      core.h files, remove unnecessary wrapper functions for kernel timer
      interfaces and so on.
      
      It should be noted that commit ##1 ("tipc: fix bug in broadcast
      retransmit code") was already submitted to 'net' tree, so please see
      below link:
      
      http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/426717/
