      vlan: allow null VLAN ID to be used · 05423b24
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      We currently use a 16 bit field (vlan_tci) to store VLAN ID/PRIO on a skb.
      
      Null value is used as a special value, meaning vlan tagging not enabled.
      This forbids use of null vlan ID.
      
      As pointed by David, some drivers use the 3 high order bits (PRIO)
      
      As VLAN ID is 12 bits, we can use the remaining bit (CFI) as a flag, and
      allow null VLAN ID.
      
      In case future code really wants to use VLAN_CFI_MASK, we'll have to use
      a bit outside of vlan_tci.
      
      #define VLAN_PRIO_MASK         0xe000 /* Priority Code Point */
      #define VLAN_PRIO_SHIFT        13
      #define VLAN_CFI_MASK          0x1000 /* Canonical Format Indicator */
      #define VLAN_TAG_PRESENT       VLAN_CFI_MASK
      #define VLAN_VID_MASK          0x0fff /* VLAN Identifier */

      inet: rename some inet_sock fields · c720c7e8
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones
      for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch.
      
      Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first
      read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt
      to a separate cache line (only written by rx path)
      
      This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr,
      sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these
      fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes.

      can: make the number of echo skb's configurable · a6e4bc53
      Wolfgang Grandegger 提交于
      This patch allows the CAN controller driver to define the number of echo
      skb's used for the local loopback (echo), as suggested by Kurt Van
      Dijck, with the function:
      
        struct net_device *alloc_candev(int sizeof_priv,
                                        unsigned int echo_skb_max);
      
      The CAN drivers have been adapted accordingly. For the ems_usb driver,
      as suggested by Sebastian Haas, the number of echo skb's has been
      increased to 10, which improves the transmission performance a lot.

      net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscall · a2e27255
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
      net stack entry/exit operations.
      
      Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
      optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.
      
      This takes into account comments made by:
      
      . Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
        sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.
      
      . Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
        works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.
      
        If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
        will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
        one) it has received so far.
      
      . Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
        datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
        the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
        in the next call.
      
      This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
      where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
      every underlying recvmsg call.

      net: Generalize socket rx gap / receive queue overflow cmsg · 3b885787
      Neil Horman 提交于
      Create a new socket level option to report number of queue overflows
      
      Recently I augmented the AF_PACKET protocol to report the number of frames lost
      on the socket receive queue between any two enqueued frames.  This value was
      exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg.  AFter I completed that work it was
      requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket
      could make use of this option.  As such I've created this patch, It creates a
      new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a
      SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue
      overflowed between any two given frames.  It also augments the AF_PACKET
      protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch
      sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count).  Tested
      successfully by me.
      
      Notes:
      
      1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which
      is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops.
      Deltas must be computed in user space.
      
      2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will
      also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats
      agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those
      protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero,
      and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those
      non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me.  This also saves us having
      to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism.
      
      3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit
      97775007 (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted

      ipv6: Fix the size overflow of addrconf_sysctl array · e0e6f55d
      Jin Dongming 提交于
      (This patch fixes bug of commit f7734fdf
       title "make TLLAO option for NA packets configurable")
      
      When the IPV6 conf is used, the function sysctl_set_parent is called and the
      array addrconf_sysctl is used as a parameter of the function.
      
      The above patch added new conf "force_tllao" into the array addrconf_sysctl,
      but the size of the array was not modified, the static allocated size is
      DEVCONF_MAX + 1 but the real size is DEVCONF_MAX + 2, so the problem is
      that the function sysctl_set_parent accessed wrong address.
      
      I got the following information.
