      net:stmmac: Remove bus_id from mdio platform data. · d56631a6
      Srinivas Kandagatla 提交于
      This patch removes bus_id from mdio platform data, The reason to remove
      bus_id is, stmmac mdio bus_id is always same as stmmac bus-id, so there
      is no point in passing this in different variable.
      Also stmmac ethernet driver connects to phy with bus_id passed its
      platform data.
      So, having single bus-id is much simpler.

      tcp: Increase timeout for SYN segments · 6c9ff979
      Alex Bergmann 提交于
      Commit 9ad7c049 ("tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT sample from 3WHS for
      the passive open side") changed the initRTO from 3secs to 1sec in
      accordance to RFC6298 (former RFC2988bis). This reduced the time till
      the last SYN retransmission packet gets sent from 93secs to 31secs.
      
      RFC1122 is stating that the retransmission should be done for at least 3
      minutes, but this seems to be quite high.
      
        "However, the values of R1 and R2 may be different for SYN
        and data segments.  In particular, R2 for a SYN segment MUST
        be set large enough to provide retransmission of the segment
        for at least 3 minutes.  The application can close the
        connection (i.e., give up on the open attempt) sooner, of
        course."
      
      This patch increases the value of TCP_SYN_RETRIES to the value of 6,
      providing a retransmission window of 63secs.
      
      The comments for SYN and SYNACK retries have also been updated to
      describe the current settings. The same goes for the documentation file
      "Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt".

      net: Set device operstate at registration time · 8f4cccbb
      Ben Hutchings 提交于
      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.

      packet: fix broken build. · f63c45e0
      Rami Rosen 提交于
      This patch fixes a broken build due to a missing header:
      ...
        CC      net/ipv4/proc.o
      In file included from include/net/net_namespace.h:15,
                       from net/ipv4/proc.c:35:
      include/net/netns/packet.h:11: error: field 'sklist_lock' has incomplete type
      ...
      
      The lock of netns_packet has been replaced by a recent patch to be a mutex instead of a spinlock,
      but we need to replace the header file to be linux/mutex.h instead of linux/spinlock.h as well.

      packet: Protect packet sk list with mutex (v2) · 0fa7fa98
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      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.
      
      [152363.820563] BUG: scheduling while atomic: crtools/12517/0x10000002
      [152363.820573] 4 locks held by crtools/12517:
      [152363.820581]  #0:  (sock_diag_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81a2dcb5>] sock_diag_rcv+0x1f/0x3e
      [152363.820613]  #1:  (sock_diag_table_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81a2de70>] sock_diag_rcv_msg+0xdb/0x11a
      [152363.820644]  #2:  (nlk->cb_mutex){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff81a67d01>] netlink_dump+0x23/0x1ab
      [152363.820693]  #3:  (rcu_read_lock){.+.+..}, at: [<ffffffff81b6a049>] packet_diag_dump+0x0/0x1af
      
      Similar thing was then re-introduced by further packet diag patches (fanount
      mutex and pgvec mutex for rings) :(
      
      Apart from being terribly sorry for the above, I propose to change the packet
      sk list protection from spinlock to mutex. 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.

      mdio: translation of MMD EEE registers to/from ethtool settings · b32607dd
      Allan, Bruce W 提交于
      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.

      net: remove delay at device dismantle · 0115e8e3
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      I noticed extra one second delay in device dismantle, tracked down to
      a call to dst_dev_event() while some call_rcu() are still in RCU queues.
      
      These call_rcu() were posted by rt_free(struct rtable *rt) calls.
      
      We then wait a little (but one second) in netdev_wait_allrefs() before
      kicking again NETDEV_UNREGISTER.
      
      As the call_rcu() are now completed, dst_dev_event() can do the needed
      device swap on busy dst.
      
      To solve this problem, add a new NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL, called
      after a rcu_barrier(), but outside of RTNL lock.
      
      Use NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL with care !
      
      Change dst_dev_event() handler to react to NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL
      
      Also remove NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH, as its not used anymore after
      IP cache removal.
