This is heavily based on the patch by Arnaldo that added recvmmsg. I wrote a microbenchmark to test the performance gains of using this new syscall: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/sendmmsg_test.c The test was run on a ppc64 box with a 10 Gbit network card. The benchmark can send both UDP and RAW ethernet packets. 64B UDP batch pkts/sec 1 804570 2 872800 (+ 8 %) 4 916556 (+14 %) 8 939712 (+17 %) 16 952688 (+18 %) 32 956448 (+19 %) 64 964800 (+20 %) 64B raw socket batch pkts/sec 1 1201449 2 1350028 (+12 %) 4 1461416 (+22 %) 8 1513080 (+26 %) 16 1541216 (+28 %) 32 1553440 (+29 %) 64 1557888 (+30 %) We see a 20% improvement in throughput on UDP send and 30% on raw socket send.

| * | | | | | | net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacksEric Dumazet2011-05-02

I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations. This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow on a workload adding/removing network devices in background. All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does roughly a revert of commits : 1c2d670f366 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks 6313c1e0992 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed. It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu read section.

Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us. Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt). Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying. We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new ip_options_rcu structure.

They address the chicken-and-egg problem that exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing, yet such port allocations require addressing information from the routing code. It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice. Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object. That way we only need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call. Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the route re-lookup. Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works in a big comment. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>

And sctp_v6_dst_saddr() is removed, instead by introduce sctp_v6_to_addr(), which can be reused to cleanup some dup code.

By now we just fold the struct sock * in struct l2cap_chan as all the channel info is struct l2cap_pinfo today. In the next commits we will see a move of channel stuff to struct l2cap_chan.

Userspace can then decide to create a sta info for the candidate. If userspace is not ready to authenticate the peer right away, it can create the sta info with the authenticated flag unset and set it later.

Also, NL80211_CMD_GET_WIPHY now returns a flag NL80211_SUPPORT_MESH_AUTH if the wiphy's mesh implementation supports routing of mesh auth frames to userspace. This is useful for forward compatibility between old kernels and new userspace tools.

Since this ACK may take more than 100ms, stopping the dev queues for entering PS at this stage breaks applications, WMM test cases in my testing. If there are frames already pending in the tx queue, postponing the PS logic helps to avoid redundant queue stops. When power save is enabled by default and in a noisy environment, this API certainly helps in improving the average throughput.

SCTP Socket API Extensions: 6.1.9. SCTP_SENDER_DRY_EVENT When the SCTP stack has no more user data to send or retransmit, this notification is given to the user. Also, at the time when a user app subscribes to this event, if there is no data to be sent or retransmit, the stack will immediately send up this notification.
