* [NET]: Add a dev_ioctl() fallback to sock_ioctl()Christoph Hellwig2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | Currently all network protocols need to call dev_ioctl as the default fallback in their ioctl implementations. This patch adds a fallback to dev_ioctl to sock_ioctl if the protocol returned -ENOIOCTLCMD. This way all the procotol ioctl handlers can be simplified and we don't need to export dev_ioctl.

* [NETROM]: Remove unessecary lock_sock calls in netrom_ioctl()Christoph Hellwig2006-01-03

* [AF_UNIX]: Convert to use a spinlock instead of rwlockBenjamin LaHaise2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | From: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org> In af_unix, a rwlock is used to protect internal state. At least on my P4 with HT it is faster to use a spinlock due to the simpler memory barrier used to unlock. This patch raises bw_unix to ~690K/s. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET]: Speed up __alloc_skb()Benjamin LaHaise2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org> In __alloc_skb(), the use of skb_shinfo() which casts a u8 * to the shared info structure results in gcc being forced to do a reload of the pointer since it has no information on possible aliasing. Fix this by using a pointer to refer to skb_shared_info. By initializing skb_shared_info sequentially, the write combining buffers can reduce the number of memory transactions to a single write. Reorder the initialization in __alloc_skb() to match the structure definition. There is also an alignment issue on 64 bit systems with skb_shared_info by converting nr_frags to a short everything packs up nicely. Also, pass the slab cache pointer according to the fclone flag instead of using two almost identical function calls. This raises bw_unix performance up to a peak of 707KB/s when combined with the spinlock patch. It should help other networking protocols, too. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [PPPOX]: Fix assignment into const proto_ops.David S. Miller2006-01-03

| | | | | | | | | | | To help in reducing the number of include dependencies, several files were touched as they were getting needed headers indirectly for stuff they use.

* [NET]: restructure sock_aio_{read,write} / sock_{readv,writev}Christoph Hellwig2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Mid-term I plan to restructure the file_operations so that we don't need to have all these duplicate aio and vectored versions. This patch is a small step in that direction but also a worthwile cleanup on it's own: (1) introduce a alloc_sock_iocb helper that encapsulates allocating a proper sock_iocb (2) add do_sock_read and do_sock_write helpers for common read/write code Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NET]: Fix sock_init() return value.David S. Miller2006-01-03

* [PKTGEN]: Deinitialise static variables.Jaco Kroon2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | static variables should not be explicitly initialised to 0. This causes them to be placed in .data instead of .bss. This patch de-initialises 3 static variables in net/core/pktgen.c. There are approximately 800 more such variables in the source tree (2.6.15rc5). If there is more interrest I'd be willing to track down the rest of these as well and de-initialise them as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET]: move struct proto_ops to constEric Dumazet2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at least) This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const, so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing. This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly) I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make them const. This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and speedup some socket system calls. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NET]: Small cleanup to socket initializationAndi Kleen2006-01-03

* [PKT_SCHED] netem: packet corruption optionStephen Hemminger2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | Here is a new feature for netem in 2.6.16. It adds the ability to randomly corrupt packets with netem. A version was done by Hagen Paul Pfeifer, but I redid it to handle the cases of backwards compatibility with netlink interface and presence of hardware checksum offload.

* [BRIDGE]: handle speed detection after carrier changesStephen Hemminger2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | Speed of a interface may not be available until carrier is detected in the case of autonegotiation. To get the correct value we need to recheck speed after carrier event. But the check needs to be done in a context that is similar to normal ethtool interface (can sleep). Also, delay check for 1ms to try avoid any carrier bounce transitions.

* [BRIDGE]: allow setting hardware address of bridge pseudo-devStephen Hemminger2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | Some people are using bridging to hide multiple machines from an ISP that restricts by MAC address.

* [AF_UNIX]: Use spinlock for unix_table_lockDavid S. Miller2006-01-03

* [IP_SOCKGLUE]: Remove most of the tcp specific callsArnaldo Carvalho de Melo2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As DCCP needs to be called in the same spots. Now we have a member in inet_sock (is_icsk), set at sock creation time from struct inet_protosw->flags (if INET_PROTOSW_ICSK is set, like for TCP and DCCP) to see if a struct sock instance is a inet_connection_sock for places like the ones in ip_sockglue.c (v4 and v6) where we previously were looking if sk_type was SOCK_STREAM, that is insufficient because we now use the same code for DCCP, that has sk_type SOCK_DCCP.

| | | | | | | | | | | | So that we can share several timewait sockets related functions and make the timewait mini sockets infrastructure closer to the request mini sockets one.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Out of tcp6_timewait_sock, that now is just an aggregation of inet_timewait_sock and inet6_timewait_sock, using tw_ipv6_offset in struct inet_timewait_sock, that is common to the IPv6 transport protocols that use timewait sockets, like DCCP and TCP. tw_ipv6_offset plays the struct inet_sock pinfo6 role, i.e. for the generic code to find the IPv6 area in a timewait sock.

* [AF_UNIX]: Remove superfluous reference counting in unix_stream_sendmsgBenjamin LaHaise2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | AF_UNIX stream socket performance on P4 CPUs tends to suffer due to a lot of pipeline flushes from atomic operations. The patch below removes the sock_hold() and sock_put() in unix_stream_sendmsg(). This should be safe as the socket still holds a reference to its peer which is only released after the file descriptor's final user invokes unix_release_sock(). The only consideration is that we must add a memory barrier before setting the peer initially. Signed-off-by: Benjamin LaHaise <benjamin.c.lahaise@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET]: Avoid atomic xchg() for non-error caseBenjamin LaHaise2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | It also looks like there were 2 places where the test on sk_err was missing from the event wait logic (in sk_stream_wait_connect and sk_stream_wait_memory), while the rest of the sock_error() users look to be doing the right thing.

* [IP]: Simplify and consolidate MSG_PEEK error handlingHerbert Xu2006-01-03
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a packet is obtained from skb_recv_datagram with MSG_PEEK enabled it is left on the socket receive queue. This means that when we detect a checksum error we have to be careful when trying to free the packet as someone could have dequeued it in the time being. Currently this delicate logic is duplicated three times between UDPv4, UDPv6 and RAWv6. This patch moves them into a one place and simplifies the code somewhat.
