      ipv6: router reachability probing · 7e980569
      Jiri Benc 提交于
      RFC 4191 states in 3.5:
      
         When a host avoids using any non-reachable router X and instead sends
         a data packet to another router Y, and the host would have used
         router X if router X were reachable, then the host SHOULD probe each
         such router X's reachability by sending a single Neighbor
         Solicitation to that router's address.  A host MUST NOT probe a
         router's reachability in the absence of useful traffic that the host
         would have sent to the router if it were reachable.  In any case,
         these probes MUST be rate-limited to no more than one per minute per
         router.
      
      Currently, when the neighbour corresponding to a router falls into
      NUD_FAILED, it's never considered again. Introduce a new rt6_nud_state
      value, RT6_NUD_FAIL_PROBE, which suggests the route should not be used but
      should be probed with a single NS. The probe is ratelimited by the existing
      code. To better distinguish meanings of the failure values, rename
      RT6_NUD_FAIL_SOFT to RT6_NUD_FAIL_DO_RR.

      tcp: auto corking · f54b3111
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP
      pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help
      applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets.
      
      Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is
      under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes)
      
      If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or
      NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push
      will be delayed up to TX completion time.
      
      This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes
      in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls.
      
      The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics
      of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow
      is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring.
      
      Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of
      autocorking being triggered.
      
      Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control
      this feature and default it to 1 (enabled)
      
      Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking
      This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used
      and its flush was deferred.
      
      Tested:
      
      Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh.
      
      Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput.

      tcp_memcontrol: Cleanup/fix cg_proto->memory_pressure handling. · 7f2cbdc2
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      kill memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure.  The only function of
      memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure was to reduce deal with the
      unnecessary abstraction that was tcp_memcontrol.  Now that struct
      tcp_memcontrol is gone remove this unnecessary function, the
      unnecessary function pointer, and modify sk_enter_memory_pressure to
      set this field directly, just as sk_leave_memory_pressure cleas this
      field directly.
      
      This fixes a small bug I intruduced when killing struct tcp_memcontrol
      that caused memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure to never be called and
      thus failed to ever set cg_proto->memory_pressure.
      
      Remove the cg_proto enter_memory_pressure function as it now serves
      no useful purpose.
      
      Don't test cg_proto->memory_presser in sk_leave_memory_pressure before
      clearing it.  The test was originally there to ensure that the pointer
      was non-NULL.  Now that cg_proto is not a pointer the pointer does not
      matter.

      xen-netback: fix fragment detection in checksum setup · 1431fb31
      Paul Durrant 提交于
      The code to detect fragments in checksum_setup() was missing for IPv4 and
      too eager for IPv6. (It transpires that Windows seems to send IPv6 packets
      with a fragment header even if they are not a fragment - i.e. offset is zero,
      and M bit is not set).
      
      This patch also incorporates a fix to callers of maybe_pull_tail() where
      skb->network_header was being erroneously added to the length argument.

      mac80211: add min required channel definition field · 21f659bf
      Eliad Peller 提交于
      Add a new field to ieee80211_chanctx_conf to indicate
      the min required channel configuration.
      
      Tuning to a narrower channel might help reducing
      the noise level and saving some power.
      
      The min required channel definition is the max of
      all min required channel definitions of the interfaces
      bound to this channel context.
      
      In AP mode, use 20MHz when there are no connected station.
      When a new station is added/removed, calculate the new max
      bandwidth supported by any of the stations (e.g. 80MHz when
      80MHz and 40MHz stations are connected).
      
      In other cases, simply use bss_conf.chandef as the
      min required chandef.

      drv_change_chanctx with a new CHANGE_MIN_WIDTH notification.

      combine them into a no-ir flag to annotate no initiating
      radiation is allowed.
      
      Old userspace sending either flag will have it treated as
      the no-ir flag. To be considerate to older userspace we
      also send both the no-ir flag and the old no-ibss flags.
      Newer userspace will have to be aware of older kernels.
      
      Update all places in the tree using these flags with the
      following semantic patch:
