      bridge: make bridge support netpoll · c06ee961
      WANG Cong 提交于
      Based on the previous patch, make bridge support netpoll by:
      
      1) implement the 2 methods to support netpoll for bridge;
      
      2) modify netpoll during forwarding packets via bridge;
      
      3) disable netpoll support of bridge when a netpoll-unabled device
         is added to bridge;
      
      4) enable netpoll support when all underlying devices support netpoll.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      cfg80211: disallow bridging managed/adhoc interfaces · ad4bb6f8
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      A number of people have tried to add a wireless interface
      (in managed mode) to a bridge and then complained that it
      doesn't work. It cannot work, however, because in 802.11
      networks all packets need to be acknowledged and as such
      need to be sent to the right address. Promiscuous doesn't
      help here. The wireless address format used for these
      links has only space for three addresses, the
       * transmitter, which must be equal to the sender (origin)
       * receiver (on the wireless medium), which is the AP in
         the case of managed mode
       * the recipient (destination), which is on the APs local
         network segment
      
      In an IBSS, it is similar, but the receiver and recipient
      must match and the third address is used as the BSSID.
      
      To avoid such mistakes in the future, disallow adding a
      wireless interface to a bridge.
      
      Felix has recently added a four-address mode to the AP
      and client side that can be used (after negotiating that
      it is possible, which must happen out-of-band by setting
      up both sides) for bridging, so allow that case.

      net: Add DEVTYPE support for Ethernet based devices · 384912ed
      Marcel Holtmann 提交于
      The Ethernet framing is used for a lot of devices these days. Most
      prominent are WiFi and WiMAX based devices. However for userspace
      application it is important to classify these devices correctly and
      not only see them as Ethernet devices. The daemons like HAL, DeviceKit
      or even NetworkManager with udev support tries to do the classification
      in userspace with a lot trickery and extra system calls. This is not
      good and actually reaches its limitations. Especially since the kernel
      does know the type of the Ethernet device it is pretty stupid.
      
      To solve this problem the underlying device type needs to be set and
      then the value will be exported as DEVTYPE via uevents and available
      within udev.
      
        # cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/uevent
        DEVTYPE=wlan
        INTERFACE=wlan0
        IFINDEX=5
      
      This is similar to subsystems like USB and SCSI that distinguish
      between hosts, devices, disks, partitions etc.
      
      The new SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE() is a convenience helper to set the actual
      device type. All device types are free form, but for convenience the
      same strings as used with RFKILL are choosen.

      netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-4 · 524ad0a7
      Wang Chen 提交于
      We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv:
      1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv().
      2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously
         netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv.
      But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it
      directly.
      
      This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev).
      Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read.
      But it is too big to be sent in one mail.
      I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes,
      which is max size allowed by vger.

      net: Fix disjunct computation of netdev features · b63365a2
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      My change
      
          commit e2a6b852
          net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device
      
      didn't do what was intended because the netdev_compute_features
      function was designed for conjunctions.  So what happened was that
      it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device.
      
      This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions
      under the new name of netdev_increment_features.
      
      It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the
      sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration.  This ensures
      that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination
      since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via
      ethtool.
      
      The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted.

      bridge: send correct MTU value in PMTU (revised) · 4adf0af6
      Simon Wunderlich 提交于
      When bridging interfaces with different MTUs, the bridge correctly chooses
      the minimum of the MTUs of the physical devices as the bridges MTU.  But
      when a frame is passed which fits through the incoming, but not through
      the outgoing interface, a "Fragmentation Needed" packet is generated.
      
      However, the propagated MTU is hardcoded to 1500, which is wrong in this
      situation.  The sender will repeat the packet again with the same frame
      size, and the same problem will occur again.
      
      Instead of sending 1500, the (correct) MTU value of the bridge is now sent
      via PMTU.  To achieve this, the corresponding rtable structure is stored
      in its net_bridge structure.
      
      Modified to get rid of fake_net_device as well.
