      net: fix scheduling of dst_gc_task by __dst_free · f262b59b
      Benjamin Thery 提交于
      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.

      net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device · e2a6b852
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      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.

      pktgen: prevent pktgen from using bad tx queue · 64c00d81
      Andrew Gallatin 提交于
      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.
      
      For example, setting "queue_map_max 2" will cause my machine to die
      when accessing a garbage spinlock in the non-existing tx queue:
      
      BUG: spinlock bad magic on CPU#0, kpktgend_0/564

      pkt_sched: Fix OOPS on ingress qdisc add. · 8d50b53d
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Bug report from Steven Jan Springl:
      
      	Issuing the following command causes a kernel oops:
      		tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress
      
      The problem mostly stems from all of the special case handling of
      ingress qdiscs.
      
      So, to fix this, do the grafting operation the same way we do for TX
      qdiscs.  Which means that dev_activate() and dev_deactivate() now do
      the "qdisc_sleeping <--> qdisc" transitions on dev->rx_queue too.
      
      Future simplifications are possible now, mainly because it is
      impossible for dev_queue->{qdisc,qdisc_sleeping} to be NULL.  There
      are NULL checks all over to handle the ingress qdisc special case
      that used to exist before this commit.

      mac80211: partially fix skb->cb use · d0f09804

      This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step
      from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now,
      disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing,
      will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software
      requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is
      not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

      net: convert BUG_TRAP to generic WARN_ON · 547b792c
      Ilpo Järvinen 提交于
      Removes legacy reinvent-the-wheel type thing. The generic
      machinery integrates much better to automated debugging aids
      such as kerneloops.org (and others), and is unambiguous due to
      better naming. Non-intuively BUG_TRAP() is actually equal to
      WARN_ON() rather than BUG_ON() though some might actually be
      promoted to BUG_ON() but I left that to future.
      
      I could make at least one BUILD_BUG_ON conversion.

      printk ratelimiting rewrite · 717115e1
      Dave Young 提交于
      All ratelimit user use same jiffies and burst params, so some messages
      (callbacks) will be lost.
      
      For example:
      a call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1)
      b call printk_ratelimit(5 * HZ, 1) before the 5*HZ timeout of a, then b will
      will be supressed.
      
      - rewrite __ratelimit, and use a ratelimit_state as parameter.  Thanks for
        hints from andrew.
      
      - Add WARN_ON_RATELIMIT, update rcupreempt.h
      
      - remove __printk_ratelimit
      
      - use __ratelimit in net_ratelimit
