| * [LLC]: Fix compiler warnings introduced by TX window scaling changes.David S. Miller2005-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Noticed by Olaf Hering. The comparisons want a u8 here (the data type on the left-hand branch is a u8 structure member, and the constant on the right-hand branch is "~((u8) 128)"), but C turns it into an integer so we get: net/llc/llc_c_ac.c: In function `llc_conn_ac_inc_npta_value': net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:998: warning: comparison is always true due to limited range of data type net/llc/llc_c_ac.c:999: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type Fix this up by explicitly recasting the right-hand branch constant into a "u8" once more.

| * [NETFILTER] ip_conntrack: fix ftp/irc/tftp helpers on ports >= 32768Harald Welte2005-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since we've converted the ftp/irc/tftp helpers to use the new module_parm_array() some time ago, we ware accidentially using signed data types - thus preventing those modules from being used on ports >= 32768.

* [TCP]: receive buffer growth limiting with mixed MTUJohn Heffner2005-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a patch for discussion addressing some receive buffer growing issues. This is partially related to the thread "Possible BUG in IPv4 TCP window handling..." last week. Specifically it addresses the problem of an interaction between rcvbuf moderation (receiver autotuning) and rcv_ssthresh. The problem occurs when sending small packets to a receiver with a larger MTU. (A very common case I have is a host with a 1500 byte MTU sending to a host with a 9k MTU.) In such a case, the rcv_ssthresh code is targeting a window size corresponding to filling up the current rcvbuf, not taking into account that the new rcvbuf moderation may increase the rcvbuf size. One hunk makes rcv_ssthresh use tcp_rmem[2] as the size target rather than rcvbuf. The other changes the behavior when it overflows its memory bounds with in-order data so that it tries to grow rcvbuf (the same as with out-of-order data). These changes should help my problem of mixed MTUs, and should also help the case from last week's thread I think. (In both cases though you still need tcp_rmem[2] to be set much larger than the TCP window.) One question is if this is too aggressive at trying to increase rcvbuf if it's under memory stress.

* [TCP]: fix congestion window update when using TSO deferalStephen Hemminger2005-11-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP peformance with TSO over networks with delay is awful. On a 100Mbit link with 150ms delay, we get 4Mbits/sec with TSO and 50Mbits/sec without TSO. The problem is with TSO, we intentionally do not keep the maximum number of packets in flight to fill the window, we hold out to until we can send a MSS chunk. But, we also don't update the congestion window unless we have filled, as per RFC2861. This patch replaces the check for the congestion window being full with something smarter that accounts for TSO.

| * [NETLINK]: Generic netlink familyThomas Graf2005-11-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The generic netlink family builds on top of netlink and provides simplifies access for the less demanding netlink users. It solves the problem of protocol numbers running out by introducing a so called controller taking care of id management and name resolving. Generic netlink modules register themself after filling out their id card (struct genl_family), after successful registration the modules are able to register callbacks to command numbers by filling out a struct genl_ops and calling genl_register_op(). The registered callbacks are invoked with attributes parsed making life of simple modules a lot easier. Although generic netlink modules can request static identifiers, it is recommended to use GENL_ID_GENERATE and to let the controller assign a unique identifier to the module. Userspace applications will then ask the controller and lookup the idenfier by the module name. Due to the current multicast implementation of netlink, the number of generic netlink modules is restricted to 1024 to avoid wasting memory for the per socket multiacst subscription bitmask.
