STATE_INIT and STATE_FINI are equivalent and represent incompletely initialised states; combine them as STATE_UNINIT. Rename STATE_RUNNING to STATE_READY, to avoid confusion with netif_running() and IFF_RUNNING. The comments do not quite match current usage, but this will be corrected in subsequent fixes.

We only use tso_state::full_packet_space to calculate the IPv4 tot_len or IPv6 payload_len, not to set tso_state::packet_space. Replace it with an ip_base_len field holding the value of tot_len or payload_len before including the TCP payload, which is much more useful when constructing the new headers.

TSO header buffers contain a control structure immediately followed by the packet headers, and are kept on a free list when not in use. This complicates buffer management and tends to result in cache read misses when we recycle such buffers (particularly if DMA-coherent memory requires caches to be disabled). Replace the free list with a simple mapping by descriptor index. We know that there is always a payload descriptor between any two descriptors with TSO header buffers, so we can allocate only one such buffer for each two descriptors. While we're at it, use a standard error code for allocation failure, not -1. Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

Add a flags field to struct efx_tx_buffer, replacing the continuation and map_single booleans. Since a single descriptor cannot be both a TSO header and the last descriptor for an skb, unionise efx_tx_buffer::{skb,tsoh} and add flags for validity of these fields. Clear all flags in free buffers (whereas previously the continuation flag would be set). Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN. For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a unregistered device, and commit b4730016 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN. The same issue exists with the dormant state. The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of the device, is: rtnl_lock(); rc = register_netdevice(dev); if (rc) goto out_unlock; netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */ rtnl_unlock(); but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of linkwatch. Commit 22604c86 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was reverted as it could lead to deadlock. This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time only. Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The network classifier cgroup initalizes each cgroups instance classid value to 0. However, the sock_update_classid function only updates classid's in sockets if the tasks cgroup classid is not zero, and if it differs from the current classid. The later check is to prevent cache line dirtying, but the former is detrimental, as it prevents resetting a classid for a cgroup to 0. While this is not a common action, it has administrative usefulness (if the admin wants to disable classification of a certain group temporarily for instance). Easy fix, just remove the zero check.

In order to understand where a broadcast packet is coming from and use this information to detect not yet announced clients, this patch modifies the interface_rx() function by passing a new argument: the orig node corresponding to the node that originated the received packet (if known). This new argument if not NULL for broadcast packets only (other packets does not have source field). Signed-off-by: NAntonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>

With the current TT mechanism a new client joining the network is not immediately able to communicate with other hosts because its MAC address has not been announced yet. This situation holds until the first OGM containing its joining event will be spread over the mesh network. This behaviour can be acceptable in networks where the originator interval is a small value (e.g. 1sec) but if that value is set to an higher time (e.g. 5secs) the client could suffer from several malfunctions like DHCP client timeouts, etc. This patch adds an early detection mechanism that makes nodes in the network able to recognise "not yet announced clients" by means of the broadcast packets they emitted on connection (e.g. ARP or DHCP request). The added client will then be confirmed upon receiving the OGM claiming it or purged if such OGM is not received within a fixed amount of time. Signed-off-by: NAntonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org>

The structure batadv_priv grows everytime a new feature is introduced. It gets hard to find the parts of the struct that belongs to a specific feature. This becomes even harder by the fact that not every feature uses a prefix in the member name. The variables for bridge loop avoidence, gateway handling, translation table and visualization server are moved into separate structs that are included in the bat_priv main struct.

If this call fails, some of the orig_nodes spaces may have been resized for the increased number of interface, and some may not. If we would just continue with the larger number of interfaces, this would lead to access to not allocated memory later. We better check the return code, and don't add the interface if no memory is available. OTOH, keeping some of the orig_nodes with too much memory allocated should hurt no one (except for a few too many bytes allocated).

Change since v1: * Fixed inuse counters access spotted by Eric In patch eea68e2f (packet: Report socket mclist info via diag module) I've introduced a "scheduling in atomic" problem in packet diag module -- the socket list is traversed under rcu_read_lock() while performed under it sk mclist access requires rtnl lock (i.e. -- mutex) to be taken.

This lock currently protects two modifications: * sklist * prot inuse counters The sklist modifications can be just reprotected with mutex since they already occur in a sleeping context. The inuse counters modifications are trickier -- the __this_cpu_-s are used inside, thus requiring the caller to handle the potential issues with contexts himself. Since packet sockets' counters are modified in two places only (packet_create and packet_release) we only need to protect the context from being preempted. BH disabling is not required in this case.

The helper functions which translate IEEE MDIO Manageable Device (MMD) Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) registers 3.20, 7.60 and 7.61 to and from the comparable ethtool supported/advertised settings will be needed by drivers other than those in PHYLIB (e.g. e1000e in a follow-on patch). In the same fashion as similar translation functions in linux/mii.h, move these functions from the PHYLIB core to the linux/mdio.h header file so the code will not have to be duplicated in each driver needing MMD-to-ethtool (and vice-versa) translations. The function and some variable names have been renamed to be more descriptive. Not tested on the only hardware that currently calls the related functions, stmmac, because I don't have access to any. Has been compile tested and the translations have been tested on a locally modified version of e1000e.

Currently the "bonding" driver does not support load balancing outgoing traffic in LACP mode for IPv6 traffic. IPv4 (and TCP or UDP over IPv4) are currently supported; this patch adds transmit hashing for IPv6 (and TCP or UDP over IPv6), bringing IPv6 up to par with IPv4 support in the bonding driver. In addition, bounds checking has been added to all transmit hashing functions. The algorithm chosen (xor'ing the bottom three quads of the source and destination addresses together, then xor'ing each byte of that result into the bottom byte, finally xor'ing with the last bytes of the MAC addresses) was selected after testing almost 400,000 unique IPv6 addresses harvested from server logs. This algorithm had the most even distribution for both big- and little-endian architectures while still using few instructions. Its behavior also attempts to closely match that of the IPv4 algorithm. The IPv6 flow label was intentionally not included in the hash as it appears to be unset in the vast majority of IPv6 traffic sampled, and the current algorithm not using the flow label already offers a very even distribution. Fragmented IPv6 packets are handled the same way as fragmented IPv4 packets, ie, they are not balanced based on layer 4 information. Additionally, IPv6 packets with intermediate headers are not balanced based on layer 4 information. In practice these intermediate headers are not common and this should not cause any problems, and the alternative (a packet-parsing loop and look-up table) seemed slow and complicated for little gain.
