This reverts commit 2626419a. It causes regressions for people with IGB cards. Connection requests don't complete etc. The true cause of the issue is still not known, but we should sort this out in net-next-2.6 not net-2.6 Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Back in commit 04a0551c ("loopback: Drop obsolete ip_summed setting") we stopped setting CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the loopback xmit. This is because such a setting was a lie since it implies that the checksum field of the packet is properly filled in. Instead what happens normally is that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is set and skb->csum is calculated as needed. But this was only happening for TCP data packets (via the skb->ip_summed assignment done in tcp_sendmsg()). It doesn't happen for non-data packets like ACKs etc. Fix this by setting skb->ip_summed in the common non-data packet constructor. It already is setting skb->csum to zero. But this reminds us that we still have things like ip_output.c's ip_dev_loopback_xmit() which sets skb->ip_summed to the value CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, which Herbert's patch teaches us is not valid. So we'll have to address that at some point too. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

Add rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive window size advertised by passive and active TCP connections. The current Linux TCP implementation limits the advertised TCP initial receive window to the one prescribed by slow start. For short lived TCP connections used for transaction type of traffic (i.e. http requests), bounding the advertised TCP initial receive window results in increased latency to complete the transaction. Support for setting initial congestion window is already supported using rtnetlink init_cwnd, but the feature is useless without the ability to set a larger TCP initial receive window. The rtnetlink init_rcvwnd allows increasing the TCP initial receive window, allowing TCP connection to advertise larger TCP receive window than the ones bounded by slow start.

They try to use the listening socket's 'dst' to probe the route settings. The listening socket doesn't even have a route, and you can't get the right route (the child request one) until much later after we setup all of the state, and it must be done by hand. This stuff really isn't ready, so the best thing to do is a full revert.

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.

Acknowledge TCP window scale support by inserting the proper option in SYN/ACK and SYN headers even if our window scale is zero. This fixes the following observed behavior: 1. Client sends a SYN with TCP window scaling option and non zero window scale value to a Linux box. 2. Linux box notes large receive window from client. 3. Linux decides on a zero value of window scale for its part. 4. Due to compare against requested window scale size option, Linux does not to send windows scale TCP option header on SYN/ACK at all. With the following result: Client box thinks TCP window scaling is not supported, since SYN/ACK had no TCP window scale option, while Linux thinks that TCP window scaling is supported (and scale might be non zero), since SYN had TCP window scale option and we have a mismatched idea between the client and server regarding window sizes. Probably it also fixes up the following bug (not observed in practice): 1. Linux box opens TCP connection to some server. 2. Linux decides on zero value of window scale. 3. Due to compare against computed window scale size option, Linux does not to set windows scale TCP option header on SYN. With the expected result that the server OS does not use window scale option due to not receiving such an option in the SYN headers, leading to suboptimal performance.

This fixed a lockdep warning which appeared when doing stress memory tests over NFS: inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage. page reclaim => nfs_writepage => tcp_sendmsg => lock sk_lock mount_root => nfs_root_data => tcp_close => lock sk_lock => tcp_send_fin => alloc_skb_fclone => page reclaim David raised a concern that if the allocation fails in tcp_send_fin(), and it's GFP_ATOMIC, we are going to yield() (which sleeps) and loop endlessly waiting for the allocation to succeed. But fact is, the original GFP_KERNEL also sleeps. GFP_ATOMIC+yield() looks weird, but it is no worse the implicit sleep inside GFP_KERNEL. Both could loop endlessly under memory pressure.

This should be very safe compared with full enabled, so I see no reason why it shouldn't be done right away. As ECN can only be negotiated if the SYN sending party is also supporting it, somebody in the loop probably knows what he/she is doing. If SYN does not ask for ECN, the server side SYN-ACK is identical to what it is without ECN. Thus it's quite safe. The chosen value is safe w.r.t to existing configs which choose to currently set manually either 0 or 1 but silently upgrades those who have not explicitly requested ECN off. Whether to just enable both sides comes up time to time but unless that gets done now we can at least make the servers aware of ECN already. As there are some known problems to occur if ECN is enabled, it's currently questionable whether there's any real gain from enabling clients as servers mostly won't support it anyway (so we'd hit just the negative sides). After enabling the servers and getting that deployed, the client end enable really has some potential gain too. Signed-off-by: NIlpo Järvinen <ilpo.jarvinen@helsinki.fi> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Also, the only users of the tp->xmit_goal_size are directly behind tcp_current_mss(), so there's no need to store that variable into tcp_sock at all! The drop of xmit_goal_size currently leaves 16-bit hole and some reorganization would again be necessary to change that (but I'm aiming to fill that hole with u16 xmit_goal_size_segs to cache the results of the remaining divide to get that tso on regression).

Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the sequence number of a packet. This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification (though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible. Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up. Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data. Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted. This way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet. The only potential downside is that applications on the remote end may see multiple SIGURG notifications. However, this would occur anyway with other TCP stacks. More importantly, the outcome of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since the signal itself does not carry any information other than the fact that we're in urgent mode. Thanks to Ilpo Järvinen for fixing a critical bug in this and Jeff Chua for reporting that bug.
