      [PATCH] list: use list_replace_init() instead of list_splice_init() · 626ab0e6
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      list_splice_init(list, head) does unneeded job if it is known that
      list_empty(head) == 1.  We can use list_replace_init() instead.

      [PATCH] VFS: Permit filesystem to override root dentry on mount · 454e2398
      David Howells 提交于
      Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that
      permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint.
      
      The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry
      pointers.  For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt()
      which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the
      superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour).
      
      The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the
      superblock pointer.
      
      This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount
      points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing.  In
      such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root
      and mnt_sb would be set directly.
      
      The patch also makes the following changes:
      
       (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount
           pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change
           very little.
      
       (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should
           normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will
           always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb().
      
       (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the
           dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon().
      
           This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that
           aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The
           currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root,
           and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in
           dentries being left unculled.
      
           However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be
           implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is
           simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be
           inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries
           with child trees.
      
           [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree.
      
       (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of
           changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

      [IPSEC]: Handle GSO packets · 09b8f7a9
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch segments GSO packets received by the IPsec stack.  This can
      happen when a NIC driver injects GSO packets into the stack which are
      then forwarded to another host.
      
      The primary application of this is going to be Xen where its backend
      driver may inject GSO packets into dom0.
      
      Of course this also can be used by other virtualisation schemes such as
      VMWare or UML since the tap device could be modified to inject GSO packets
      received through splice.

      [NET]: Add generic segmentation offload · f6a78bfc
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch adds the infrastructure for generic segmentation offload.
      The idea is to tap into the potential savings of TSO without hardware
      support by postponing the allocation of segmented skb's until just
      before the entry point into the NIC driver.
      
      The same structure can be used to support software IPv6 TSO, as well as
      UFO and segmentation offload for other relevant protocols, e.g., DCCP.

      [NET]: Merge TSO/UFO fields in sk_buff · 7967168c
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      Having separate fields in sk_buff for TSO/UFO (tso_size/ufo_size) is not
      going to scale if we add any more segmentation methods (e.g., DCCP).  So
      let's merge them.
      
      They were used to tell the protocol of a packet.  This function has been
      subsumed by the new gso_type field.  This is essentially a set of netdev
      feature bits (shifted by 16 bits) that are required to process a specific
      skb.  As such it's easy to tell whether a given device can process a GSO
      skb: you just have to and the gso_type field and the netdev's features
      field.
      
      I've made gso_type a conjunction.  The idea is that you have a base type
      (e.g., SKB_GSO_TCPV4) that can be modified further to support new features.
      For example, if we add a hardware TSO type that supports ECN, they would
      declare NETIF_F_TSO | NETIF_F_TSO_ECN.  All TSO packets with CWR set would
      have a gso_type of SKB_GSO_TCPV4 | SKB_GSO_TCPV4_ECN while all other TSO
      packets would be SKB_GSO_TCPV4.  This means that only the CWR packets need
      to be emulated in software.

      [NET]: Prevent transmission after dev_deactivate · d4828d85
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      The dev_deactivate function has bit-rotted since the introduction of
      lockless drivers.  In particular, the spin_unlock_wait call at the end
      has no effect on the xmit routine of lockless drivers.
      
      With a little bit of work, we can make it much more useful by providing
      the guarantee that when it returns, no more calls to the xmit routine
      of the underlying driver will be made.
      
      The idea is simple.  There are two entry points in to the xmit routine.
      The first comes from dev_queue_xmit.  That one is easily stopped by
      using synchronize_rcu.  This works because we set the qdisc to noop_qdisc
      before the synchronize_rcu call.  That in turn causes all subsequent
      packets sent to dev_queue_xmit to be dropped.  The synchronize_rcu call
      also ensures all outstanding calls leave their critical section.
      
      The other entry point is from qdisc_run.  Since we now have a bit that
      indicates whether it's running, all we have to do is to wait until the
      bit is off.
      
      I've removed the loop to wait for __LINK_STATE_SCHED to clear.  This is
      useless because netif_wake_queue can cause it to be set again.  It is
      also harmless because we've disarmed qdisc_run.
      
      I've also removed the spin_unlock_wait on xmit_lock because its only
      purpose of making sure that all outstanding xmit_lock holders have
      exited is also given by dev_watchdog_down.

      [NET]: Avoid allocating skb in skb_pad · 5b057c6b
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      First of all it is unnecessary to allocate a new skb in skb_pad since
      the existing one is not shared.  More importantly, our hard_start_xmit
      interface does not allow a new skb to be allocated since that breaks
      requeueing.
      
      This patch uses pskb_expand_head to expand the existing skb and linearize
      it if needed.  Actually, someone should sift through every instance of
      skb_pad on a non-linear skb as they do not fit the reasons why this was
      originally created.
      
      Incidentally, this fixes a minor bug when the skb is cloned (tcpdump,
      TCP, etc.).  As it is skb_pad will simply write over a cloned skb.  Because
      of the position of the write it is unlikely to cause problems but still
      it's best if we don't do it.
