* [NET]: Prevent multiple qdisc runsHerbert Xu2006-06-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having two or more qdisc_run's contend against each other is bad because it can induce packet reordering if the packets have to be requeued. It appears that this is an unintended consequence of relinquinshing the queue lock while transmitting. That in turn is needed for devices that spend a lot of time in their transmit routine. There are no advantages to be had as devices with queues are inherently single-threaded (the loopback device is not but then it doesn't have a queue). Even if you were to add a queue to a parallel virtual device (e.g., bolt a tbf filter in front of an ipip tunnel device), you would still want to process the queue in sequence to ensure that the packets are ordered correctly. The solution here is to steal a bit from net_device to prevent this. BTW, as qdisc_restart is no longer used by anyone as a module inside the kernel (IIRC it used to with netif_wake_queue), I have not exported the new __qdisc_run function.

| * | [SCTP]: Fix persistent slowdown in sctp when a gap ack consumes rx buffer.Neil Horman2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the event that our entire receive buffer is full with a series of chunks that represent a single gap-ack, and then we accept a chunk (or chunks) that fill in the gap between the ctsn and the first gap, we renege chunks from the end of the buffer, which effectively does nothing but move our gap to the end of our received tsn stream. This does little but move our missing tsns down stream a little, and, if the sender is sending sufficiently large retransmit frames, the result is a perpetual slowdown which can never be recovered from, since the only chunk that can be accepted to allow progress in the tsn stream necessitates that a new gap be created to make room for it. This leads to a constant need for retransmits, and subsequent receiver stalls. The fix I've come up with is to deliver the frame without reneging if we have a full receive buffer and the receiving sockets sk_receive_queue is empty(indicating that the receive buffer is being blocked by a missing tsn).

This is specified in Section 7.1.2 of the SCTP socket API draft. However, we only do this if the association has multiple paths.

So we can replace __skb_linearize with __pskb_pull_tail which does the same thing but is more general. Also, most users of skb_linearize end up testing whether the skb is linear or not so it helps to make skb_linearize do just that. Some callers of skb_linearize also use it to copy cloned data, so it's useful to have a new function skb_linearize_cow to copy the data if it's either non-linear or cloned. Last but not least, I've removed the gfp argument since nobody uses it anymore. If it's ever needed we can easily add it back.

| * | [NET]: Add netif_tx_lockHerbert Xu2006-06-18

They do so without setting xmit_lock_owner. This is fine as long as netpoll is not in use. With netpoll it is possible for deadlocks to occur if xmit_lock_owner isn't set. This is because if a printk occurs while xmit_lock is held and xmit_lock_owner is not set can cause netpoll to attempt to take xmit_lock recursively. While it is possible to resolve this by getting netpoll to use trylock, it is suboptimal because netpoll's sole objective is to maximise the chance of getting the printk out on the wire. So delaying or dropping the message is to be avoided as much as possible. So the only alternative is to always set xmit_lock_owner. The following patch does this by introducing the netif_tx_lock family of functions that take care of setting/unsetting xmit_lock_owner. I renamed xmit_lock to _xmit_lock to indicate that it should not be used directly. I didn't provide irq versions of the netif_tx_lock functions since xmit_lock is meant to be a BH-disabling lock. This is pretty much a straight text substitution except for a small bug fix in winbond. It currently uses netif_stop_queue/spin_unlock_wait to stop transmission. This is unsafe as an IRQ can potentially wake up the queue. So it is safer to use netif_tx_disable. The hamradio bits used spin_lock_irq but it is unnecessary as xmit_lock must never be taken in an IRQ handler. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

In the previous patch, no authorization (besides the check for write permissions to SAD and SPD) is required to delete IPsec policies and security assocations with security contexts. Thus a user authorized to change SAD and SPD can bypass the IPsec policy authorization by simply deleteing policies with security contexts. To fix this security hole, an additional authorization check is added for removing security policies and security associations with security contexts. Note that if no security context is supplied on add or present on policy to be deleted, the SELinux module allows the change unconditionally. The hook is called on deletion when no context is present, which we may want to change. At present, I left it up to the module. LSM changes: The patch adds two new LSM hooks: xfrm_policy_delete and xfrm_state_delete. The new hooks are necessary to authorize deletion of IPsec policies that have security contexts. The existing hooks xfrm_policy_free and xfrm_state_free lack the context to do the authorization, so I decided to split authorization of deletion and memory management of security data, as is typical in the LSM interface. Use: The new delete hooks are checked when xfrm_policy or xfrm_state are deleted by either the xfrm_user interface (xfrm_get_policy, xfrm_del_sa) or the pfkey interface (pfkey_spddelete, pfkey_delete). SELinux changes: The new policy_delete and state_delete functions are added.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The suseconds_t et al. are not necessarily any particular type on every platform, so cast to unsigned long so that we can use one printf format string and avoid warnings across the board Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * | [TCP]: TCP Probe congestion window tracingStephen Hemminger2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds a new module for tracking TCP state variables non-intrusively using kprobes. It has a simple /proc interface that outputs one line for each packet received. A sample usage is to collect congestion window and ssthresh over time graphs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many of the TCP congestion methods all just use ssthresh as the minimum congestion window on decrease. Rather than duplicating the code, just have that be the default if that handle in the ops structure is not set. Minor behaviour change to TCP compound. It probably wants to use this (ssthresh) as lower bound, rather than ssthresh/2 because the latter causes undershoot on loss.

| * | [TCP]: TCP Compound quad root functionStephen Hemminger2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original code did a 64 bit divide directly, which won't work on 32 bit platforms. Rather than doing a 64 bit square root twice, just implement a 4th root function in one pass using Newton's method. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * | [TCP]: TCP Veno congestion controlBin Zhou2006-06-18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP Veno module is a new congestion control module to improve TCP performance over wireless networks. The key innovation in TCP Veno is the enhancement of TCP Reno/Sack congestion control algorithm by using the estimated state of a connection based on TCP Vegas. This scheme significantly reduces "blind" reduction of TCP window regardless of the cause of packet loss. This work is based on the research paper "TCP Veno: TCP Enhancement for Transmission over Wireless Access Networks." C. P. Fu, S. C. Liew, IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication, Feb. 2003.

Available from: http://www.ece.rice.edu/~akuzma/Doc/akuzma/TCP-LP.pdf Original Author: Aleksandar Kuzmanovic <akuzma@northwestern.edu> See http://www-ece.rice.edu/networks/TCP-LP/ for their implementation. As of 2.6.13, Linux supports pluggable congestion control algorithms. Due to the limitation of the API, we take the following changes from the original TCP-LP implementation: o We use newReno in most core CA handling. Only add some checking within cong_avoid. o Error correcting in remote HZ, therefore remote HZ will be keeped on checking and updating. o Handling calculation of One-Way-Delay (OWD) within rtt_sample, sicne OWD have a similar meaning as RTT. Also correct the buggy formular. o Handle reaction for Early Congestion Indication (ECI) within pkts_acked, as mentioned within pseudo code. o OWD is handled in relative format, where local time stamp will in tcp_time_stamp format.
