* 9p: apply common request code to trans_fdEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | Apply the now common p9_req_t structure to the fd transport. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: apply common tagpool handling to trans_fdEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | Simplify trans_fd by using new common client tagpool structure. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: move request management to client codeEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | The virtio transport uses a simplified request management system that I want to use for all transports. This patch adapts and moves the exisiting code for managing requests to the client common code. Later patches will apply these mechanisms to the other transports.

* 9p: eliminate callback complexityEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | The current trans_fd rpc mechanisms use a dynamic callback mechanism which introduces a lot of complexity which only accomodates a single special case. This patch removes much of that complexity in favor of a simple exception mechanism to deal with flushes. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: consolidate mux_rpc and request structureEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | Currently, trans_fd has two structures (p9_req and p9_mux-rpc) which contain mostly duplicate data. This patch consolidates these two structures and removes p9_mux_rpc. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: remove unnecessary prototypesEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | Cleanup files by reordering functions in order to remove need for unnecessary function prototypes. There are no code changes here, just functions being moved around and prototypes being eliminated. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: remove duplicate client stateEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | Now that we are passing client state into the transport modules, remove duplicate state which is present in transport private structures. Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>
* 9p: consolidate transport structureEric Van Hensbergen2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now there is a transport module structure which provides per-transport type functions and data and a transport structure which contains per-instance public data as well as function pointers to instance specific functions. This patch moves public transport visible instance data to the client structure (which in some cases had duplicate data) and consolidates the functions into the transport module structure.

* 9p-trans_fd: use single pollerTejun Heo2008-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | trans_fd used pool of upto 100 pollers to monitor the r/w fds. The approach makes sense in userspace back when the only available interfaces were poll(2) and select(2). As each event monitor - trigger - handling iteration took O(n) where `n' is the number of watched fds, it makes sense to spread them to many pollers such that the `n' can be divided by the number of pollers. However, this doesn't make any sense in kernel because persistent edge triggered event monitoring is how the whole thing is implemented in the kernel in the first place. This patch converts trans_fd to use single poller which watches all the fds instead of the poll of pollers approach. All the fds are registered for monitoring on creation and only the fds with pending events are scanned when something happens much like how epoll is implemented. This change makes trans_fd fd monitoring more efficient and simpler. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Eric Van Hensbergen <ericvh@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The xprt_connect call path does not expect such errors as ECONNREFUSED to be returned from failed transport connection attempts, otherwise it translates them to EIO and signals fatal errors.

| | * RPC/RDMA: fix connection IRD/ORD settingTom Tucker2008-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This logic sets the connection parameter that configures the local device and informs the remote peer how many concurrent incoming RDMA_READ requests are supported. The original logic didn't really do what was intended for two reasons: - The max number supported by the device is typically smaller than any one factor in the calculation used, and - The field in the connection parameter structure where the value is stored is a u8 and always overflows for the default settings. So what really happens is the value requested for responder resources is the left over 8 bits from the "desired value". If the desired value happened to be a multiple of 256, the result was zero and it wouldn't connect at all. Given the above and the fact that max_requests is almost always larger than the max responder resources supported by the adapter, this patch simplifies this logic and simply requests the max supported by the device, subject to a reasonable limit. This bug was found by Jim Schutt at Sandia. Signed-off-by: Tom Tucker <tom@opengridcomputing.com> Acked-by: Tom Talpey <talpey@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

It will try to create a rpc request using utsname() which has been invalidated by free_nsproxy(). The patch fixes the issue by using the global init_utsname() which is always valid. the capability of identifying rpc clients per uts namespace stills needs some extra work so this should not be a problem.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Despite the fact that cloned rpc clients won't have the cl_autobind flag set, they may still find themselves calling rpcb_getport_async(). For this to happen, it suffices for a _parent_ rpc_clnt to use autobinding, in which case any clone may find itself triggering the !xprt_bound() case in call_bind(). The correct fix for this is to walk back up the tree of cloned rpc clients, in order to find the parent that 'owns' the transport, either because it has clnt->cl_autobind set, or because it originally created the transport...

| * | | driver core: basic infrastructure for per-module dynamic debug messagesJason Baron2008-10-16

I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file, currently, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set. The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis. Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define their own debug levels and flags. Usage: Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file, <debugfs>/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows: <module_name> <enabled=0/1> . . . <module_name> : Name of the module in which the debug call resides <enabled=0/1> : whether the messages are enabled or not For example: snd_hda_intel enabled=0 fixup enabled=1 driver enabled=0 Enable a module: $echo "set enabled=1 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules Disable a module: $echo "set enabled=0 <module_name>" > dynamic_printk/modules Enable all modules: $echo "set enabled=1 all" > dynamic_printk/modules Disable all modules: $echo "set enabled=0 all" > dynamic_printk/modules Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above disable command.

This patch changes two files: include/linux/icmpv6.h Get the "router_pref" bitfield in the right place (as RFC4191 says), named the bit left with this fix as "home_agent" (RFC3775 say that's his function) net/ipv6/ndisc.c Corrects the binary logic behind the updating of the router preference in the flags of the routing table Result: With this two fixes applied, the default route used by the system was to consistent with the rules mentioned in RFC4191 in case of changes in the value of preference in router advertisements Signed-off-by: Pedro Ribeiro <pribeiro@net.ipl.pt> Acked-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

This makes ath9k "support" hardware fragmentation by not supporting fragmentation at all to avoid the double-free issue. The patch also changes mac80211 to report errors from the driver operation to userspace. That hack in ath9k should be removed once the rate control algorithm it has is fixed, and we can at that time consider removing the hw fragmentation support entirely since it's not used by any driver.

Now, nf_conntrack_netlink only requires nf_conntrack and nfnetlink. This patch puts nfnetlink_parse_nat_setup_hook into the nf_conntrack_core to avoid dependencies between ctnetlink, nf_conntrack_ipv4 and nf_conntrack_ipv6. This patch also introduces the function ctnetlink_change_nat that is only invoked from the creation path. Actually, the nat handling cannot be invoked from the update path since this is not allowed. By introducing this function, we remove the useless nat handling in the update path and we avoid deadlock-prone code. This patch also adds the required EAGAIN logic for nfnetlink.

This is wrong in combination with NAT and ip_conntrack actually had some ifdefs to avoid this behaviour when NAT is compiled in. The entire "optimization" may seem a bit silly, for now simply restoring the lost #ifdef is the easiest solution until we can come up with something better.
