This patch adds the functions __netpoll_setup/__netpoll_cleanup which is designed to be called recursively through ndo_netpoll_seutp. They must be called with RTNL held, and the caller must initialise np->dev and ensure that it has a valid reference count.

As it stands, netpoll_setup and netpoll_cleanup have no locking protection whatsoever. So chaos ensures if two entities try to perform them on the same device. This patch adds RTNL to the equation. The code has been rearranged so that bits that do not need RTNL protection are now moved to the top of netpoll_setup. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The use of RCU in netpoll is incorrect in a number of places: 1) The initial setting is lacking a write barrier. 2) The synchronize_rcu is in the wrong place. 3) Read barriers are missing. 4) Some places are even missing rcu_read_lock. 5) npinfo is zeroed after freeing. This patch fixes those issues. As most users are in BH context, this also converts the RCU usage to the BH variant. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Acked-by: NPaul E.

Since we have to NULL npinfo regardless of whether there is a ndo_netpoll_cleanup, it makes sense to do this unconditionally in netpoll_cleanup rather than having every driver do it by themselves.

Try to reduce cache line contentions in peer management, to reduce IP defragmentation overhead. - peer_fake_node is marked 'const' to make sure its not modified. (tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y) - Group variables in two structures to reduce number of dirtied cache lines. One named "peers" for avl tree root, its number of entries, and associated lock. (candidate for RCU conversion) - A second one named "unused_peers" for unused list and its lock - Add a !list_empty() test in unlink_from_unused() to avoid taking lock when entry is not unused. - Use atomic_dec_and_lock() in inet_putpeer() to avoid taking lock in some cases.

This patch added to 2.6.34: commit f8d1dcaf Author: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Date: Tue Apr 27 01:37:20 2010 +0000 ixgbe: enable extremely low latency introduced a feature where LRO (called RSC on the hardware) was disabled automatically when setting rx-usecs to 0 via ethtool. Some might not like the fact that LRO was disabled automatically, but I'm fine with that. What I don't like is that LRO/RSC is automatically enabled when rx-usecs is set >0 via ethtool. This would certainly be a problem if the device was used for forwarding and it was determined that the low latency wasn't needed after the device was already forwarding. I played around with saving the state of LRO in the driver, but it just didn't seem worthwhile and would require a small change to dev_disable_lro() that I did not like. This patch simply leaves LRO disabled when setting rx-usecs >0 and requires that the user enable it again. An extra informational message will also now appear in the log so users can understand why LRO isn't being enabled as they expect. Inconsistency of LRO setting first noticed by Stanislaw Gruszka.

commit 675ad473 removed the capability to use ethtool.set_msglevel to control the types of messages emitted by the driver. That commit should probably be reverted.

Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure. On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with struct rtnl_link_stats64. Add an anonymous union in net_device; move stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64. Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Drivers that implement this operation must not update the structure asynchronously. Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Change callers of dev_get_stats() accordingly.

This patch increases the granularity of the rate generated by pktgen. The previous version of pktgen uses micro seconds (udelay) resolution when it was delayed causing gaps in the rates.

econet lacks proper locking. It holds econet_lock only when inserting or deleting an entry in econet_sklist, not during lookups. - convert econet_lock from rwlock to spinlock - use econet_lock in ec_listening_socket() lookup - use appropriate sock_hold() / sock_put() to avoid corruptions.

gen_kill_estimator() API is incomplete or not well documented, since caller should make sure an RCU grace period is respected before freeing stats_lock. This was partially addressed in commit 5d944c64 (gen_estimator: deadlock fix), but same problem exist for all gen_kill_estimator() users, if lock they use is not already RCU protected. A code review shows xt_RATEEST.c, act_api.c, act_police.c have this problem. Other are ok because they use qdisc lock, already RCU protected.

The point of using the devres resource management routines is that they simplify the driver by taking care of releasing resources on failure and release. A recent commit added a bunch of error handling that is unnecessary in this context. This patch removes this redundant error handling, as well as using dmam_alloc_coherent in place of dma_alloc_coherent in order to use this framework consistenly throughout the driver.
