This converts pretty much everything to print_mac. There were a few things that had conflicts which I have just dropped for now, no harm done. I've built an allyesconfig with this and looked at the files that weren't built very carefully, but it's a huge patch.

My change commit e2a6b852 net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device didn't do what was intended because the netdev_compute_features function was designed for conjunctions. So what happened was that it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device. This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions under the new name of netdev_increment_features. It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration. This ensures that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via ethtool. The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances of the error unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free a reference to the device waited on by the first instance. The problem is really quite silly. We were trying to create parallelism where none was required. As netdev_run_todo always follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait for the very ones that you've added and be done with it. There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock. This is exactly what the following patch does. Signed-off-by: NHerbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN device down that is in promiscous mode: When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous count on the real device is decremented a second time by the vlan_change_rx_flags() callback. The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags() is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP. Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the intended behaviour.

This patch adds skb_recycle_check(), which can be used by a network driver after transmitting an skb to check whether this skb can be recycled as a receive buffer. skb_recycle_check() checks that the skb is not shared or cloned, and that it is linear and its head portion large enough (as determined by the driver) to be recycled as a receive buffer. If these conditions are met, it does any necessary reference count dropping and cleans up the skbuff as if it just came from __alloc_skb().

This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this to hold information like which circuit or line it is connected to. It is just an arbitrary text label on the network device. There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be read/written either via netlink or sysfs. This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.

The dst garbage collector dst_gc_task() may not be scheduled as we expect it to be in __dst_free(). Indeed, when the dst_gc_timer was replaced by the delayed_work dst_gc_work, the mod_timer() call used to schedule the garbage collector at an earlier date was replaced by a schedule_delayed_work() (see commit 86bba269). But, the behaviour of mod_timer() and schedule_delayed_work() is different in the way they handle the delay. mod_timer() stops the timer and re-arm it with the new given delay, whereas schedule_delayed_work() only check if the work is already queued in the workqueue (and queue it (with delay) if it is not) BUT it does NOT take into account the new delay (even if the new delay is earlier in time). schedule_delayed_work() returns 0 if it didn't queue the work, but we don't check the return code in __dst_free(). If I understand the code in __dst_free() correctly, we want dst_gc_task to be queued after DST_GC_INC jiffies if we pass the test (and not in some undetermined time in the future), so I think we should add a call to cancel_delayed_work() before schedule_delayed_work(). Patch below. Or we should at least test the return code of schedule_delayed_work(), and reset the values of dst_garbage.timer_inc and dst_garbage.timer_expires back to their former values if schedule_delayed_work() failed. Otherwise the subsequent calls to __dst_free will test the wrong values and assume wrong thing about when the garbage collector is supposed to be scheduled. dst_gc_task() also calls schedule_delayed_work() without checking its return code (or calling cancel_scheduled_work() first), but it should fine there: dst_gc_task is the routine of the delayed_work, so no dst_gc_work should be pending in the queue when it's running.

As it stands users of netdev_compute_features (e.g., bridges/bonding) will only enable TSO if all consituent devices support it. This is unnecessarily pessimistic since even on devices that do not support hardware TSO and SG, emulated TSO still performs to a par with TSO off. This patch enables TSO if at least on constituent device supports it in hardware. The direct beneficiaries will be virtualisation that uses bridging since this means that TSO will always be enabled for communication from the host to the guests.

If dev_deactivate() is trying to quiesce the queue, it is theoretically possible for another cpu to livelock trying to process that queue. This happens because dev_deactivate() grabs the queue spinlock as it checks the queue state, whereas net_tx_action() does a trylock and reschedules the qdisc if it hits the lock. This breaks the livelock by adding a check on __QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATED to net_tx_action() when the trylock fails. Based upon feedback from Herbert Xu and Jarek Poplawski. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This new state lets dev_deactivate() mark a qdisc as having been deactivated. dev_queue_xmit() and ing_filter() check for this bit and do not try to process the qdisc if the bit is set. dev_deactivate() polls the qdisc after setting the bit, waiting for both __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING and __QDISC_STATE_SCHED to clear. This isn't perfect yet, but subsequent changesets will make it so. This part is just one piece of the puzzle. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

With the new multi-queue transmit code, it is possible to accidentally make pktgen pick a non-existing tx queue simply by using a stale script to drive pktgen. Access to this non-existing tx queue will then trigger a bad memory access and kill the machine.

Sofar far pktgen have had a restriction to only use one device per kernel thread. With the new multiqueue architecture this is no longer adequate. The patch below is an effort to remove this by in pktgen configuration adding a tag to the device name a la eth0@0 etc. The tag is used for usual device config just as before. Also a new flag is introduced to mirror queue_map with sending threads smp_processor_id() QUEUE_MAP_CPU. An example: We use 4 CPU's to send to one 10g interface (eth0) and we use the new tagging to send a mix of packet sizes, 64, 576 and 1500 bytes. Also we use TX queues according to smp_processor_id() PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_0 pgset "add_device eth0@0" PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_1 pgset "add_device eth0@1" PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_2 pgset "add_device eth0@2" PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_3 pgset "add_device eth0@3" ....
