Skbprio (SKB Priority Queue) is a queueing discipline that prioritizes packets according to their skb->priority field. Under congestion, already-enqueued lower priority packets will be dropped to make space available for higher priority packets. Skbprio was conceived as a solution for denial-of-service defenses that need to route packets with different priorities as a means to overcome DoS attacks. v5 *Do not reference qdisc_dev(sch)->tx_queue_len for setting limit. Instead set default sch->limit to 64. v4 *Drop Documentation/networking/sch_skbprio.txt doc file to move it to tc man page for Skbprio, in iproute2. v3 *Drop max_limit parameter in struct skbprio_sched_data and instead use sch->limit. *Reference qdisc_dev(sch)->tx_queue_len only once, during initialisation for qdisc (previously being referenced every time qdisc changes). *Move qdisc's detailed description from in-code to Documentation/networking. *When qdisc is saturated, enqueue incoming packet first before dequeueing lowest priority packet in queue - improves usage of call stack registers. *Introduce and use overlimit stat to keep track of number of dropped packets. v2 *Use skb->priority field rather than DS field. Rename queueing discipline as SKB Priority Queue (previously Gatekeeper Priority Queue). *Queueing discipline is made classful to expose Skbprio's internal priority queues. Signed-off-by:

Certain PHY's have issues when operating in GBit slave mode and can be forced to master mode. Examples are RTL8211C, also the Micrel PHY driver has a DT setting to force master mode. If two such chips are link partners the autonegotiation will fail. Standard defines a self-clearing on read, latched-high bit to indicate this error. Check this bit to inform the user. Signed-off-by:

The cited patch added a call to dev_change_tx_queue_len in SIOCSIFTXQLEN case. This obsoletes the new len comparison check done before the function call. Remove it here. For the desicion of keep/remove the negative value check, we examine the range check in dev_change_tx_queue_len. On 64-bit we will fail with -ERANGE. The 32-bit int ifr_qlen will be sign extended to 64-bits when it is passed into dev_change_tx_queue_len(). And then for negative values this test triggers: if (new_len != (unsigned int)new_len) return -ERANGE; because: if (0xffffffffWHATEVER != 0x00000000WHATEVER) On 32-bit the signed value will be accepted, changing behavior. Therefore, the negative value check is kept. Fixes: 3f76df19 ("net: use dev_change_tx_queue_len() for SIOCSIFTXQLEN") Signed-off-by:

As explained in ieee80211_delayed_tailroom_dec(), during roam, keys of the old AP will be destroyed and new keys will be installed. Deletion of the old key causes crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt to go from 1 to 0 and the new key installation causes a transition from 0 to 1. Whenever crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt transitions from 0 to 1, we invoke synchronize_net(); the reason for doing this is to avoid a race in the TX path as explained in increment_tailroom_need_count(). This synchronize_net() operation can be slow and can affect the station roam time. To avoid this, decrementing the crypto_tx_tailroom_needed_cnt is delayed for a while so that upon installation of new key the transition would be from 1 to 2 instead of 0 to 1 and thereby improving the roam time. This is all correct for a STA iftype, but deferring the tailroom_needed decrement for other iftypes may be unnecessary. For example, let's consider the case of a 4-addr client connecting to an AP for which AP_VLAN interface is also created, let the initial value for tailroom_needed on the AP be 1. * 4-addr client connects to the AP (AP: tailroom_needed = 1) * AP will clear old keys, delay decrement of tailroom_needed count * AP_VLAN is created, it takes the tailroom count from master (AP_VLAN: tailroom_needed = 1, AP: tailroom_needed = 1) * Install new key for the station, assume key is plumbed in the HW, there won't be any change in tailroom_needed count on AP iface * Delayed decrement of tailroom_needed count on AP (AP: tailroom_needed = 0, AP_VLAN: tailroom_needed = 1) Because of the delayed decrement on AP iface, tailroom_needed count goes out of sync between AP(master iface) and AP_VLAN(slave iface) and there would be unnecessary tailroom created for the packets going through AP_VLAN iface. Also, WARN_ONs were observed while trying to bring down the AP_VLAN interface: (warn_slowpath_common) (warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x20) (warn_slowpath_null) (ieee80211_free_keys+0x114/0x1e4) (ieee80211_free_keys) (ieee80211_del_virtual_monitor+0x51c/0x850) (ieee80211_del_virtual_monitor) (ieee80211_stop+0x30/0x3c) (ieee80211_stop) (__dev_close_many+0x94/0xb8) (__dev_close_many) (dev_close_many+0x5c/0xc8) Restricting delayed decrement to station interface alone fixes the problem and it makes sense to do so because delayed decrement is done to improve roam time which is applicable only for client devices.

Ka-Cheong Poon says: ==================== rds: IPv6 support This patch set adds IPv6 support to the kernel RDS and related modules. Existing RDS apps using IPv4 address continue to run without any problem. New RDS apps which want to use IPv6 address can do so by passing the address in struct sockaddr_in6 to bind(), connect() or sendmsg(). And those apps also need to use the new IPv6 equivalents of some of the existing socket options as the existing options use a 32 bit integer to store IP address. All RDS code now use struct in6_addr to store IP address. IPv4 address is stored as an IPv4 mapped address. Header file changes There are many data structures (RDS socket options) used by RDS apps which use a 32 bit integer to store IP address. To support IPv6, struct in6_addr needs to be used. To ensure backward compatibility, a new data structure is introduced for each of those data structures which use a 32 bit integer to represent an IP address. And new socket options are introduced to use those new structures. This means that existing apps should work without a problem with the new RDS module. For apps which want to use IPv6, those new data structures and socket options can be used. IPv4 mapped address is used to represent IPv4 address in the new data structures. Internally, all RDS data structures which contain an IP address are changed to use struct in6_addr to store the address. IPv4 address is stored as an IPv4 mapped address. All the functions which take an IP address as argument are also changed to use struct in6_addr. RDS/RDMA/IB uses a private data (struct rds_ib_connect_private) exchange between endpoints at RDS connection establishment time to support RDMA. This private data exchange uses a 32 bit integer to represent an IP address. This needs to be changed in order to support IPv6. A new private data struct rds6_ib_connect_private is introduced to handle this. To ensure backward compatibility, an IPv6 capable RDS stack uses another RDMA listener port (RDS_CM_PORT) to accept IPv6 connection. And it continues to use the original RDS_PORT for IPv4 RDS connections. When it needs to communicate with an IPv6 peer, it uses the RDS_TCP_PORT to send the connection set up request. RDS/TCP changes TCP related code is changed to support IPv6. Note that only an IPv6 TCP listener on port RDS_TCP_PORT is created as it can accept both IPv4 and IPv6 connection requests. IB/RDMA changes The initial private data exchange between IB endpoints using RDMA is changed to support IPv6 address instead, if the peer address is IPv6. To ensure backward compatibility, annother RDMA listener port (RDS_CM_PORT) is used to accept IPv6 connection. An IPv6 capable RDS module continues to use the original RDS_PORT for IPv4 RDS connections. When it needs to communicate with an IPv6 peer, it uses the RDS_CM_PORT to send the connection set up request. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

This patch changes the internal representation of an IP address to use struct in6_addr. IPv4 address is stored as an IPv4 mapped address. All the functions which take an IP address as argument are also changed to use struct in6_addr. But RDS socket layer is not modified such that it still does not accept IPv6 address from an application. And RDS layer does not accept nor initiate IPv6 connections. v2: Fixed sparse warnings.
