      net: Audit drivers to identify those needing IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING cleared · 550fd08c
      Neil Horman 提交于
      After the last patch, We are left in a state in which only drivers calling
      ether_setup have IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set (we assume that drivers touching real
      hardware call ether_setup for their net_devices and don't hold any state in
      their skbs.  There are a handful of drivers that violate this assumption of
      course, and need to be fixed up.  This patch identifies those drivers, and marks
      them as not being able to support the safe transmission of skbs by clearning the
      IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag in priv_flags

      ethtool: cosmetic: Use ethtool ethtool_cmd_speed API · 70739497
      David Decotigny 提交于
      This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the
      ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed()
      instead.
      
      For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't
      fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly
      call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes
      are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with
      future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each
      ethtool operation.
      
      All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been
      updated.
      
      Tested: make allyesconfig on x86_64 + e1000e/bnx2x work

      veth: Fix the byte counters · 675071a2
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Commit 44540960 "veth: move loopback logic to common location" introduced
      a bug in the packet counters.  I don't understand why that happened as it
      is not explained in the comments and the mut check in dev_forward_skb
      retains the assumption that skb->len is the total length of the packet.
      
      I just measured this emperically by setting up a veth pair between two
      noop network namespaces setting and attempting a telnet connection between
      the two.  I saw three packets in each direction and the byte counters were
      exactly 14*3 = 42 bytes high in each direction.  I got the actual
      packet lengths with tcpdump.
      
      So remove the extra ETH_HLEN from the veth byte count totals.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      rtnetlink: support specifying device flags on device creation · 3729d502
      Patrick McHardy 提交于
      commit e8469ed959c373c2ff9e6f488aa5a14971aebe1f
      Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
      Date:   Tue Feb 23 20:41:30 2010 +0100
      
      Support specifying the initial device flags when creating a device though
      rtnl_link. Devices allocated by rtnl_create_link() are marked as INITIALIZING
      in order to surpress netlink registration notifications. To complete setup,
      rtnl_configure_link() must be called, which performs the device flag changes
      and invokes the deferred notifiers if everything went well.
      
      Two examples:
      
      # add macvlan to eth0
      #
      $ ip link add link eth0 up allmulticast on type macvlan

      net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation. · 81adee47
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the
      network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier
      to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace
      with a well known name.
      
      We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace
      for the new device exists through the life of the call.  To keep
      that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing
      logic into rtnl_link_get_net.
      
      In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace
      to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base
      device source network namespace.

      veth: Allow setting the L3 MTU · 38d40815
      Eric Biederman 提交于
      The limitation to only 1500 byte mtu's limits the utility of the veth
      device for testing routing.  So implement implement a configurable
      MTU.
      
      For consistency I drop packets on the receive side when they are
      larger than the MTU.  I count those drops.  And I allow
      a little padding for vlan headers.
      
      I also test the mtu when a new device is created with netlink
      because that path currently bypasses the current mtu setting
      code.
