* bonding: set primary param via sysfsJiri Pirko2009-10-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | Primary module parameter passed to bonding is pernament. That means if you release the primary slave and enslave it again, it becomes the primary slave again. But if you set primary slave via sysfs, the primary slave is only set once and it's not remembered in bond->params structure. Therefore the setting is lost after releasing the primary slave. This simple one-liner fixes this. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* bonding: make ab_arp select active slaves as other modesJiri Pirko2009-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When I was implementing primary_passive option (formely named primary_lazy) I've run into troubles with ab_arp. This is the only mode which is not using bond_select_active_slave() function to select active slave and instead it selects it itself. This seems to be not the right behaviour and it would be better to do it in bond_select_active_slave() for all cases. This patch makes this happen. Please review.

* bonding: remap muticast addresses without using dev_close() and dev_open()Moni Shoua2009-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6a6d0f59803b3ef04ff3c22c3844c10. The approach there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses. This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks: *. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat) and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter. *. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing table, which might be unnecessary. The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

| * bonding: clean muticast addresses when device changes typeMoni Shoua2009-07-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bonding device forbids slave device of different types under the same master. However, it is possible for a bonding master to change type during its lifetime. This can be either from ARPHRD_ETHER to ARPHRD_INFINIBAND or the other way arround. The change of type requires device level multicast address cleanup because device level multicast addresses depend on the device type. The patch adds a call to dev_close() before the bonding master changes type and dev_open() just after that. In the example below I enslaved an IPoIB device (ib0) under bond0. Since each bonding master starts as device of type ARPHRD_ETHER by default, a change of type occurs when ib0 is enslaved. This is how /proc/net/dev_mcast looks like without the patch 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 5 bond0 1 0 01005e000116 5 bond0 1 0 01005e7ffffd 5 bond0 1 0 01005e000001 5 bond0 1 0 333300000001 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 6 ib0 1 0 333300000001 6 ib0 1 0 01005e000001 6 ib0 1 0 01005e7ffffd 6 ib0 1 0 01005e000116 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001 and this is how it looks like after the patch. 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff0000000000000ffffffd 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000116 5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000116 6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff0000000000000ffffffd 6 ib0 2 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001 6 ib0 2 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001 Signed-off-by: Moni Shoua <monis@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: release dst entry in dev_hard_start_xmit()Eric Dumazet2009-05-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One point of contention in high network loads is the dst_release() performed when a transmited skb is freed. This is because NIC tx completion calls dev_kree_skb() long after original call to dev_queue_xmit(skb). CPU cache is cold and the atomic op in dst_release() stalls. On SMP, this is quite visible if one CPU is 100% handling softirqs for a network device, since dst_clone() is done by other cpus, involving cache line ping pongs. It seems right place to release dst is in dev_hard_start_xmit(), for most devices but ones that are virtual, and some exceptions. David Miller suggested to define a new device flag, set in alloc_netdev_mq() (so that most devices set it at init time), and carefuly unset in devices which dont want a NULL skb->dst in their ndo_start_xmit(). List of devices that must clear this flag is : - loopback device, because it calls netif_rx() and quoting Patrick : "ip_route_input() doesn't accept loopback addresses, so loopback packets already need to have a dst_entry attached." - appletalk/ipddp.c : needs skb->dst in its xmit function - And all devices that call again dev_queue_xmit() from their xmit function (as some classifiers need skb->dst) : bonding, vlan, macvlan, eql, ifb, hdlc_fr Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the purposes of bonding is to allow for redundant links, and failover correctly if the cable is pulled. If all the members of a bonded device have no carrier present, the bonded device itself needs to report no carrier present to user space so management tools (like routing daemons) can respond. Bonding in 802.3ad mode does not work correctly for this because it incorrectly chooses a link that is down as a possible aggregator.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct net_device trans_start field is a hot spot on SMP and high performance devices, particularly multi queues ones, because every transmitter dirties it. Is main use is tx watchdog and bonding alive checks. But as most devices dont use NETIF_F_LLTX, we have to lock a netdev_queue before calling their ndo_start_xmit(). So it makes sense to move trans_start from net_device to netdev_queue. Its update will occur on a already present (and in exclusive state) cache line, for free. We can do this transition smoothly. An old driver continue to update dev->trans_start, while an updated one updates txq->trans_start.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pointed out by Sean E. Millichamp. Quote from Documentation/networking/bonding.txt: "Note that when a bonding interface has no active links, the driver will immediately reuse the first link that goes up, even if the updelay parameter has been specified (the updelay is ignored in this case). If there are slave interfaces waiting for the updelay timeout to expire, the interface that first went into that state will be immediately reused. This reduces down time of the network if the value of updelay has been overestimated, and since this occurs only in cases with no connectivity, there is no additional penalty for ignoring the updelay."

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL ->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting in module refcount underflow. We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops and ->data. But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment) and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give some thoughts. ->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for protection. rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm. And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular. We definitely don't want such modular code. Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller. So, let's nuke it. Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12454 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com>
* bonding: select current active slave when enslaving device for mode tlb and albJiri Pirko2009-03-25

When I enslave a card, the current active slave (bond->curr_active_slave) is not set and the link is therefore not functional. ---- # cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0 Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.5.0 (November 4, 2008) Bonding Mode: adaptive load balancing Primary Slave: None Currently Active Slave: None MII Status: up MII Polling Interval (ms): 100 Up Delay (ms): 0 Down Delay (ms): 0 Slave Interface: eth1 MII Status: up Link Failure Count: 0 Permanent HW addr: 00:1f:1f:01:2f:22 ---- The thing that gets it right is when I unplug the cable and then I put it back into the NIC. Then the current active slave is set to eth1 and link is working just fine. Here is dmesg log with bonding DEBUG messages turned on: ---- ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): bond0: link is not ready event_dev: bond0, event: 1 IFF_MASTER event_dev: bond0, event: 8 IFF_MASTER bond_ioctl: master=bond0, cmd=35216 slave_dev=cac5d800: slave_dev->name=eth1: eth1: ! NETIF_F_VLAN_CHALLENGED event_dev: eth1, event: 8 eth1: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0xC5E1 event_dev: eth1, event: 1 event_dev: eth1, event: 8 IFF_SLAVE Initial state of slave_dev is BOND_LINK_UP bonding: bond0: enslaving eth1 as an active interface with an up link. ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): bond0: link becomes ready event_dev: bond0, event: 4 IFF_MASTER bond0: no IPv6 routers present <<<<cable unplug>>>> eth1: link down event_dev: eth1, event: 4 IFF_SLAVE bonding: bond0: link status definitely down for interface eth1, disabling it event_dev: bond0, event: 4 IFF_MASTER <<<<cable plug>>>> eth1: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex, lpa 0xC5E1 event_dev: eth1, event: 4 IFF_SLAVE bonding: bond0: link status definitely up for interface eth1. bonding: bond0: making interface eth1 the new active one. event_dev: eth1, event: 8 IFF_SLAVE event_dev: eth1, event: 8 IFF_SLAVE bonding: bond0: first active interface up! event_dev: bond0, event: 4 IFF_MASTER ---- The current active slave is set by calling bond_select_active_slave() function from bond_miimon_commit() function when the slave (eth1) link goes to state up. I also tested this on other machine with Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708 1000Base-T NIC and there all works fine. The thing is that this adapter is down and goes up after few seconds after it is enslaved. This patch calls bond_select_active_slave() in bond_enslave() function for modes alb and tlb and makes sure that the current active slave is set up properly even when the slave state is already up. Tested on both systems, works fine. Notice: The same problem can maybe also occrur in mode 8023AD but I'm unable to test that. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corrects an omission from the following commit: commit f0c76d61779b153dbfb955db3f144c62d02173c2 Author: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Date: Wed Jul 2 18:21:58 2008 -0700 bonding: refactor mii monitor The un-refactored code checked the link speed and duplex of every slave on every pass; the refactored code did not do so. The 802.3ad and balance-alb/tlb modes utilize the speed and duplex information, and require it to be kept up to date. This patch adds a notifier check to perform the appropriate updating when the slave device speed changes. Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
