      tcp: Add GRO support · bf296b12
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch adds the TCP-specific portion of GRO.  The criterion for
      merging is extremely strict (the TCP header must match exactly apart
      from the checksum) so as to allow refragmentation.  Otherwise this
      is pretty much identical to LRO, except that we support the merging
      of ECN packets.

      net: Add skb_gro_receive · 71d93b39
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch adds the helper skb_gro_receive to merge packets for
      GRO.  The current method is to allocate a new header skb and then
      chain the original packets to its frag_list.  This is done to
      make it easier to integrate into the existing GSO framework.
      
      In future as GSO is moved into the drivers, we can undo this and
      simply chain the original packets together.

      ipv4: Add GRO infrastructure · 73cc19f1
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch adds GRO support for IPv4.
      
      The criteria for merging is more stringent than LRO, in particular,
      we require all fields in the IP header to be identical except for
      the length, ID and checksum.  In addition, the ID must form an
      arithmetic sequence with a difference of one.
      
      The ID requirement might seem overly strict, however, most hardware
      TSO solutions already obey this rule.  Linux itself also obeys this
      whether GSO is in use or not.
      
      In future we could relax this rule by storing the IDs (or rather
      making sure that we don't drop them when pulling the aggregate
      skb's tail).

      net: Add Generic Receive Offload infrastructure · d565b0a1
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch adds the top-level GRO (Generic Receive Offload) infrastructure.
      This is pretty similar to LRO except that this is protocol-independent.
      Instead of holding packets in an lro_mgr structure, they're now held in
      napi_struct.
      
      For drivers that intend to use this, they can set the NETIF_F_GRO bit and
      call napi_gro_receive instead of netif_receive_skb or just call netif_rx.
      The latter will call napi_receive_skb automatically.  When napi_gro_receive
      is used, the driver must either call napi_complete/napi_rx_complete, or
      call napi_gro_flush in softirq context if the driver uses the primitives
      __napi_complete/__napi_rx_complete.
      
      Protocols will set the gro_receive and gro_complete function pointers in
      order to participate in this scheme.
      
      In addition to the packet, gro_receive will get a list of currently held
      packets.  Each packet in the list has a same_flow field which is non-zero
      if it is a potential match for the new packet.  For each packet that may
      match, they also have a flush field which is non-zero if the held packet
      must not be merged with the new packet.
      
      Once gro_receive has determined that the new skb matches a held packet,
      the held packet may be processed immediately if the new skb cannot be
      merged with it.  In this case gro_receive should return the pointer to
      the existing skb in gro_list.  Otherwise the new skb should be merged into
      the existing packet and NULL should be returned, unless the new skb makes
      it impossible for any further merges to be made (e.g., FIN packet) where
      the merged skb should be returned.
      
      Whenever the skb is merged into an existing entry, the gro_receive
      function should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->same_flow.  Note that if an skb
      merely matches an existing entry but can't be merged with it, then
      this shouldn't be set.
      
      If gro_receive finds it pointless to hold the new skb for future merging,
      it should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush.
      
      Held packets will be flushed by napi_gro_flush which is called by
      napi_complete and napi_rx_complete.
      
      Currently held packets are stored in a singly liked list just like LRO.
      The list is limited to a maximum of 8 entries.  In future, this may be
      expanded to use a hash table to allow more flows to be held for merging.

      net: Add frag_list support to GSO · 1a881f27
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch allows GSO to handle frag_list in a limited way for the
      purposes of allowing packets merged by GRO to be refragmented on
      output.
      
      Most hardware won't (and aren't expected to) support handling GRO
      frag_list packets directly.  Therefore we will perform GSO in
      software for those cases.
      
      However, for drivers that can support it (such as virtual NICs) we
      may not have to segment the packets at all.
      
      Whether the added overhead of GRO/GSO is worthwhile for bridges
      and routers when weighed against the benefit of potentially
      increasing the MTU within the host is still an open question.
      However, for the case of host nodes this is undoubtedly a win.

      net: Add frag_list support to skb_segment · 89319d38
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch adds limited support for handling frag_list packets in
      skb_segment.  The intention is to support GRO (Generic Receive Offload)
      packets which will be constructed by chaining normal packets using
      frag_list.
      
      As such we require all frag_list members terminate on exact MSS
      boundaries.  This is checked using BUG_ON.
      
      As there should only be one producer in the kernel of such packets,
      namely GRO, this requirement should not be difficult to maintain.

      cgroups: fix a race between rmdir and remount · 307257cf
      Paul Menage 提交于
      When a cgroup is removed, it's unlinked from its parent's children list,
      but not actually freed until the last dentry on it is released (at which
      point cgrp->root->number_of_cgroups is decremented).
      
      Currently rebind_subsystems checks for the top cgroup's child list being
      empty in order to rebind subsystems into or out of a hierarchy - this can
      result in the set of subsystems bound to a hierarchy being
      removed-but-not-freed cgroup.
      
      The simplest fix for this is to forbid remounts that change the set of
      subsystems on a hierarchy that has removed-but-not-freed cgroups.  This
      bug can be reproduced via:
      
      mkdir /mnt/cg
      mount -t cgroup -o ns,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
      mkdir /mnt/cg/foo
      sleep 1h < /mnt/cg/foo &
      rmdir /mnt/cg/foo
      mount -t cgroup -o remount,ns,devices,freezer cgroup /mnt/cg
      kill $!
      
      Though the above will cause oops in -mm only but not mainline, but the bug
      can cause memory leak in mainline (and even oops)
