      dccp: support for the exchange of NN options in established state 1/2 · d6916f87
      Gerrit Renker 提交于
      In contrast to static feature negotiation at the begin of a connection, this
      patch introduces support for exchange of dynamically changing options.
      
      Such an update/exchange is necessary in at least two cases:
       * CCID-2's Ack Ratio (RFC 4341, 6.1.2) which changes during the connection;
       * Sequence Window values that, as per RFC 4340, 7.5.2, should be sent "as
         the connection progresses".
      
      Both are non-negotiable (NN) features, which means that no new capabilities
      are negotiated, but rather that changes in known parameters are brought
      up-to-date at either end.
      
      Thse characteristics are reflected by the implementation:
       * only NN options can be exchanged after connection setup;
       * an ack is scheduled directly after activation to speed up the update;
       * CCIDs may request changes to an NN feature even if a negotiation for that
         feature is already underway: this is required by CCID-2, where changes in
         cwnd necessitate Ack Ratio changes, such that the previous Ack Ratio (which
         is still being negotiated) would cause irrecoverable RTO timeouts (thanks
         to work by Samuel Jero).

      net: Audit drivers to identify those needing IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING cleared · 550fd08c
      Neil Horman 提交于
      After the last patch, We are left in a state in which only drivers calling
      ether_setup have IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set (we assume that drivers touching real
      hardware call ether_setup for their net_devices and don't hold any state in
      their skbs.  There are a handful of drivers that violate this assumption of
      course, and need to be fixed up.  This patch identifies those drivers, and marks
      them as not being able to support the safe transmission of skbs by clearning the
      IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING flag in priv_flags

      net: add IFF_SKB_TX_SHARED flag to priv_flags · d8873315
      Neil Horman 提交于
      Pktgen attempts to transmit shared skbs to net devices, which can't be used by
      some drivers as they keep state information in skbs.  This patch adds a flag
      marking drivers as being able to handle shared skbs in their tx path.  Drivers
      are defaulted to being unable to do so, but calling ether_setup enables this
      flag, as 90% of the drivers calling ether_setup touch real hardware and can
      handle shared skbs.  A subsequent patch will audit drivers to ensure that the
      flag is set properly
