| | * | | | | | | | | | | | batman-adv: rename global if_list to hardif_listMarek Lindner2011-03-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Batman-adv works with "hard interfaces" as well as "soft interfaces". The new name should better make clear which kind of interfaces this list stores. Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>

After that the softif neigh list gets locked again and the buffer printed - which has the following two issues: For one thing, the softif neigh list might have grown when reacquiring the rcu lock, which results in writing outside of the allocated buffer. Furthermore 31 Bytes are not enough for printing an entry with a vid of more than 2 digits. The manual buffering is unnecessary, we can safely print to the seq directly during the rcu_read_lock().

Only the first half of the flow object members even matter for output route lookups in this context, specifically: FIB rules matching cares about: dst, src, tos, iif, oif, mark FIB trie lookup cares about: dst FIB semantic match cares about: tos, scope, oif Therefore only initialize these specific members and elide the memset entirely. On Niagara2 this kills about ~300 cycles from the output route lookup path. Likely, we can take things further, since all callers of output route lookups essentially throw away the on-stack flow they use. So they don't care if we use it as a scratch-pad to compute the final flow key. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>

If an entry is not found, we have to redo the lookup under a spinlock to make certain that a concurrent writer rebalancing the tree does not "hide" an existing entry from us. This makes the case of a create==0 lookup for a not-present entry really expensive. It is on the order of 600 cpu cycles on my Niagara2. I added a hack to not do the relookup under the lock when create==0 and it now costs less than 300 cycles. This is now a pretty common operation with the way we handle COW'd metrics, so I think it's definitely worth optimizing. ----------------- One solution is to use a seqlock instead of a spinlock to protect struct inet_peer_base. After a failed avl tree lookup, we can easily detect if a writer did some changes during our lookup. Taking the lock and redo the lookup is only necessary in this case. Note: Add one private rcu_deref_locked() macro to place in one spot the access to spinlock included in seqlock. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

All drivers will drop frames if they fail to TX the frame, and they must also properly manage the queues (if they didn't, mac80211 would already warn). Removing the ability for drivers to return a BUSY value also allows significant cleanups of the TX TX handling code in mac80211. Note that this also fixes a bug in ath9k_htc, the old "return -1" there was wrong.

As the data quickly follows the nullfunc frame, the AP thinks that the station is out of power save and continues to send the frames. Whereas in the station, the nullfunc ack will be processed after the tx completion of data frame and mac80211 goes to powersave. Thus the power save state mismatch between the station and the AP causes some data loss and some applications fail because of that. This patch fixes this issue.
