      [PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits
      
      unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved
      neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible
      for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
      sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

      net: introduce ethernet teaming device · 3d249d4c
      Jiri Pirko 提交于
      This patch introduces new network device called team. It supposes to be
      very fast, simple, userspace-driven alternative to existing bonding
      driver.
      
      Userspace library called libteam with couple of demo apps is available
      here:
      https://github.com/jpirko/libteam
      Note it's still in its dipers atm.
      
      team<->libteam use generic netlink for communication. That and rtnl
      suppose to be the only way to configure team device, no sysfs etc.
      
      Python binding of libteam was recently introduced.
      Daemon providing arpmon/miimon active-backup functionality will be
      introduced shortly. All what's necessary is already implemented in
      kernel team driver.
      
      v7->v8:
      	- check ndo_ndo_vlan_rx_[add/kill]_vid functions before calling
      	  them.
      	- use dev_kfree_skb_any() instead of dev_kfree_skb()
      
      v6->v7:
      	- transmit and receive functions are not checked in hot paths.
      	  That also resolves memory leak on transmit when no port is
      	  present
      
      v5->v6:
      	- changed couple of _rcu calls to non _rcu ones in non-readers
      
      v4->v5:
      	- team_change_mtu() uses team->lock while travesing though port
      	  list
      	- mac address changes are moved completely to jurisdiction of
      	  userspace daemon. This way the daemon can do FOM1, FOM2 and
      	  possibly other weird things with mac addresses.
      	  Only round-robin mode sets up all ports to bond's address then
      	  enslaved.
      	- Extended Kconfig text
      
      v3->v4:
      	- remove redundant synchronize_rcu from __team_change_mode()
      	- revert "set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per
      	  byte"
      	- extend comment of function __team_change_mode()
      
      v2->v3:
      	- team_change_mtu() uses rcu version of list traversal to unwind
      	- set and clear of mode_ops happens per pointer, not per byte
      	- port hashlist changed to be embedded into team structure
      	- error branch in team_port_enter() does cleanup now
      	- fixed rtln->rtnl
      
      v1->v2:
      	- modes are made as modules. Makes team more modular and
      	  extendable.
      	- several commenters' nitpicks found on v1 were fixed
      	- several other bugs were fixed.
      	- note I ignored Eric's comment about roundrobin port selector
      	  as Eric's way may be easily implemented as another mode (mode
      	  "random") in future.

      ipv6: Send ICMPv6 RSes only when RAs are accepted · 026359bc
      Tore Anderson 提交于
      This patch improves the logic determining when to send ICMPv6 Router
      Solicitations, so that they are 1) always sent when the kernel is
      accepting Router Advertisements, and 2) never sent when the kernel is
      not accepting RAs. In other words, the operational setting of the
      "accept_ra" sysctl is used.
      
      The change also makes the special "Hybrid Router" forwarding mode
      ("forwarding" sysctl set to 2) operate exactly the same as the standard
      Router mode (forwarding=1). The only difference between the two was
      that RSes was being sent in the Hybrid Router mode only. The sysctl
      documentation describing the special Hybrid Router mode has therefore
      been removed.
      
      Rationale for the change:
      
      Currently, the value of forwarding sysctl is the only thing determining
      whether or not to send RSes. If it has the value 0 or 2, they are sent,
      otherwise they are not. This leads to inconsistent behaviour in the
      following cases:
      
      * accept_ra=0, forwarding=0
      * accept_ra=0, forwarding=2
      * accept_ra=1, forwarding=2
      * accept_ra=2, forwarding=1
      
      In the first three cases, the kernel will send RSes, even though it will
      not accept any RAs received in reply. In the last case, it will not send
      any RSes, even though it will accept and process any RAs received. (Most
      routers will send unsolicited RAs periodically, so suppressing RSes in
      the last case will merely delay auto-configuration, not prevent it.)
      
      Also, it is my opinion that having the forwarding sysctl control RS
      sending behaviour (completely independent of whether RAs are being
      accepted or not) is simply not what most users would intuitively expect
      to be the case.

      inetpeer: remove unused list · 4b9d9be8
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Andi Kleen and Tim Chen reported huge contention on inetpeer
      unused_peers.lock, on memcached workload on a 40 core machine, with
      disabled route cache.
      
      It appears we constantly flip peers refcnt between 0 and 1 values, and
      we must insert/remove peers from unused_peers.list, holding a contended
      spinlock.
      
      Remove this list completely and perform a garbage collection on-the-fly,
      at lookup time, using the expired nodes we met during the tree
      traversal.
      
      This removes a lot of code, makes locking more standard, and obsoletes
      two sysctls (inet_peer_gc_mintime and inet_peer_gc_maxtime). This also
      removes two pointers in inet_peer structure.
      
      There is still a false sharing effect because refcnt is in first cache
      line of object [were the links and keys used by lookups are located], we
      might move it at the end of inet_peer structure to let this first cache
      line mostly read by cpus.

      ipv4, ipv6, bonding: Restore control over number of peer notifications · ad246c99
      Ben Hutchings 提交于
      For backward compatibility, we should retain the module parameters and
      sysfs attributes to control the number of peer notifications
      (gratuitous ARPs and unsolicited NAs) sent after bonding failover.
      Also, it is possible for failover to take place even though the new
      active slave does not have link up, and in that case the peer
      notification should be deferred until it does.
      
      Change ipv4 and ipv6 so they do not automatically send peer
      notifications on bonding failover.
      
      Change the bonding driver to send separate NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS
      notifications when the link is up, as many times as requested.  Since
      it does not directly control which protocols send notifications, make
      num_grat_arp and num_unsol_na aliases for a single parameter.  Bump
      the bonding version number and update its documentation.
