Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed that it would be nice to handle NET_XMIT_BYPASS by NET_XMIT_SUCCESS with an internal qdisc flag __NET_XMIT_BYPASS and to remove the mapping from dev_queue_xmit(). David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> spotted a serious bug in the first version of this patch. Signed-off-by: NJarek Poplawski <jarkao2@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> noticed: "The other problem that affects all qdiscs supporting actions is TC_ACT_QUEUED/TC_ACT_STOLEN getting mapped to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS even though the packet is not queued, corrupting upper qdiscs' qlen counters." and later explained: "The reason why it translates it at all seems to be to not increase the drops counter. Within a single qdisc this could be avoided by other means easily, upper qdiscs would still increase the counter when we return anything besides NET_XMIT_SUCCESS though. This means we need a new NET_XMIT return value to indicate this to the upper qdiscs. So I'd suggest to introduce NET_XMIT_STOLEN, return that to upper qdiscs and translate it to NET_XMIT_SUCCESS in dev_queue_xmit, similar to NET_XMIT_BYPASS." David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> noticed: "Maybe these NET_XMIT_* values being passed around should be a set of bits. They could be composed of base meanings, combined with specific attributes. So you could say "NET_XMIT_DROP | __NET_XMIT_NO_DROP_COUNT" The attributes get masked out by the top-level ->enqueue() caller, such that the base meanings are the only thing that make their way up into the stack. If it's only about communication within the qdisc tree, let's simply code it that way." This patch is trying to realize these ideas.

The old code will drop IPv6 packet if ipfragok is not set, since ipfragok is obsoleted, will be instead by used skb->local_df, so this check must be changed to skb->local_df.

The ipfragok flag controls whether the packet may be fragmented either on the local host on beyond. The latter is only valid on IPv4. In fact, we never want to do the latter even on IPv4 when PMTU is enabled. This is because even though we can't fragment packets within SCTP due to the prtocol's inherent faults, we can still fragment it at IP layer. By setting the DF bit we will improve the PMTU process. RFC 2960 only says that we SHOULD clear the DF bit in this case, so we're compliant even if we set the DF bit. In fact RFC 4960 no longer has this statement. Once we make this change, we only need to control the local fragmentation. There is already a bit in the skb which controls that, local_df. So this patch sets that instead of using the ipfragok argument. The only complication is that there isn't a struct sock object per transport, so for IPv4 we have to resort to changing the pmtudisc field for every packet. This should be safe though as the protocol is single-threaded. Note that after this patch we can remove ipfragok from the rest of the stack too.

If a netdevice does not support hardware GSO, allowing the stack to use GSO anyway and then splitting the GSO skb into MSS-sized pieces as it is handed to the netdevice for transmitting is likely still a win as far as throughput and/or CPU usage are concerned, since it reduces the number of trips through the output path. This patch enables the use of GSO on any netdevice that supports SG. If a GSO skb is then sent to a netdevice that supports SG but does not support hardware GSO, net/core/dev.c:dev_hard_start_xmit() will take care of doing the necessary GSO segmentation in software.

When pneigh entries exist, but the user's read buffer isn't sufficient to hold them all, one of the pneigh entries will be missing from the results. In neigh_get_idx_any, the number of elements which neigh_get_idx encountered is not correctly subtracted from the position number before the call to pneigh_get_idx. neigh_get_idx reduces the position by 1 for each call to neigh_get_next, but it does not reduce it by one for the first element (neigh_get_first). The patch alters the neigh_get_idx and pneigh_get_idx functions to subtract one from pos, for the first element, when pos is non-zero.

Currently function tty_ldisc_get() tries to load an ldisc driver module only when tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EAGAIN. This happens only if module is being unloaded. If ldisc module is not loaded tty_ldisc_try_get() returns -EINVAL and this case is not handled in tty_ldisc_get(), so request_module() is not called. Attached patch fixes this by calling request_module() if tty_ldisc_try_get() returned any error code.

Each resource should be printed on its own line, so start snprintf'ing at the beginning of the buffer every time through the loop. Also, use scnprintf() rather than snprintf() when building up the buffer to print. scnprintf() returns the number of characters actually written into the buffer (not including the trailing NULL). snprintf() returns the number of characters that *would be* written, assuming everything would fit in the buffer. That's nice if we want to resize the buffer to make sure everything fits, but in this case, I just want to keep from overflowing the buffer, and it's OK if the output is truncated. Using snprintf() meant that my "len" could grow to be more than the the buffer size, which makes "sizeof(buf) - len" negative, which causes this alarming WARN_ON: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121736480005656&w=2 More useful snprintf/scnprintf discussion: http://lwn.net/Articles/69419/Signed-off-by: NBjorn Helgaas <bjorn.helgaas@hp.com> Reported-by: NPete Clements <clem@clem.clem-digital.net> Cc: Rene Herman <rene.herman@keyaccess.nl> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Some users of the RTL8187B have experienced difficulties since commit 49292d56 that introduced the power management wext hooks. This difficulty has not made much sense until it was realized that it was possible for mac80211 to make a call to the config routine while that routine was already being executed. On this device, it is necessary to loopback the TX when changing channels. Unless this is properly restored, the device will lockup.
