* [DCCP]: Support for server holding timewait stateGerrit Renker2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a socket option and signalling support for the case where the server holds timewait state on closing the connection, as described in RFC 4340, 8.3. Since holding timewait state at the server is the non-usual case, it is enabled via a socket option. Documentation for this socket option has been added. The setsockopt statement has been made resilient against different possible cases of expressing boolean `true' values using a suggestion by Ian McDonald.

* [DCCP]: Promote CCID2 as default CCIDGerrit Renker2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch addresses the following problems: 1. DCCP relies for its proper functioning on having at least one CCID module enabled (as in TCP plugable congestion control). Currently it is possible to disable both CCIDs and thus leave the DCCP module in a compiled, but entirely non-functional state: no sockets can be created when no CCID is available. Furthermore, the protocol is (again like TCP) not intended to be used without CCIDs. Last, a non-empty CCID list is needed for doing CCID feature negotiation. 2. Internally the default CCID that is advertised by the Linux host is set to CCID2 (DCCPF_INITIAL_CCID in include/linux/dccp.h). Disabling CCID2 in the Kconfig menu without changing the defaults leads to a failure `module not found' when trying to load the dccp module (which internally tries to load the default CCID). 3. The specification (RFC 4340, sec. 10) treats CCID2 somewhat like a `minimum common denominator'; the specification says that: * "New connections start with CCID 2 for both endpoints" * "A DCCP implementation intended for general use, such as an implementation in a general-purpose operating system kernel, SHOULD implement at least CCID 2. The intent is to make CCID 2 broadly available for interoperability [...]" Providing CCID2 as minimum-required CCID (like Reno/Cubic in TCP) thus seems reasonable. Hence this patch automatically selects CCID2 when DCCP is enabled. Documentation also added. Discussions with Ian McDonald on this subject are gratefully acknowledged.

* [DCCP]: Honour and make use of shutdown option set by userGerrit Renker2008-01-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This extends the DCCP socket API by honouring any shutdown(2) option set by the user. The behaviour is, as much as possible, made consistent with the API for TCP's shutdown. This patch exploits the information provided by the user via the socket API to reduce processing costs: * if the read end is closed (SHUT_RD), it is not necessary to deliver to input CCID; * if the write end is closed (SHUT_WR), the same idea applies, but with a difference - as long as the TX queue has not been drained, we need to receive feedback to keep congestion-control rates up to date. Hence SHUT_WR is honoured only after the last packet (under congestion control) has been sent; * although SHUT_RDWR seems nonsensical, it is nevertheless supported in the same manner as for TCP (and agrees with test for SHUTDOWN_MASK in dccp_poll() in net/dccp/proto.c). Furthermore, most of the code already honours the sk_shutdown flags (dccp_recvmsg() for instance sets the read length to 0 if SHUT_RD had been called); CCID handling is now added to this by the present patch. There will also no longer be any delivery when the socket is in the final stages, i.e. when one of dccp_close(), dccp_fin(), or dccp_done() has been called - which is fine since at that stage the connection is its final stages. Motivation and background are on http://www.erg.abdn.ac.uk/users/gerrit/dccp/notes/shutdown A FIXME has been added to notify the other end if SHUT_RD has been set (RFC 4340, 11.7). Note: There is a comment in inet_shutdown() in net/ipv4/af_inet.c which asks to "make sure the socket is a TCP socket". This should probably be extended to mean `TCP or DCCP socket' (the code is also used by UDP and raw sockets).

| * [SCSI] aacraid: add Voodoo Lite class of cards.Salyzyn, Mark2008-01-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The cards being added are supported in a limited sense already through family matching, but we needed to add some functionality to the driver to expose selectively the physical drives. These Physical drives are specifically marked to not be part of any array and thus are declared JBODs (Just a Bunch Of Drives) for generic SCSI access. We report that this is the second patch in a set of two, but merely depends on the stand-alone functionality of the first patch which adds in that case the ability to report a driver feature flag via sysfs. We leverage that functionality by reporting that this driver now supports this new JBOD feature for the controller so that the array management applications may react accordingly and guide the user as they manage the controller.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Local alloc is a performance optimization in ocfs2 in which a node takes a window of bits from the global bitmap and then uses that for all small local allocations. This window size is fixed to 8MB currently. This patch allows users to specify the window size in MB including disabling it by passing in 0. If the number specified is too large, the fs will use the default value of 8MB. mount -o localalloc=X /dev/sdX /mntpoint Signed-off-by: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mark.fasheh@oracle.com>

The default of 5 seconds stays the same, but now users can easily increase the commit interval. Typically, this would be increased in order to benefit performance at the expense of data-safety.
