Vlad Yasevich says: ==================== Current dev_[uc|mc]_addr_sync() API currently correctly syncs the addresses to the first device. Any subsequent calls to sync will not do anything since the synched variable will be set. This variable is used as an optimization to skip over addresses that have been synched. There are some devices (ex: team) that attempt to do the above. There is other work in progress that needs to above to work corretly. The short series introduces dev_[uc|mc]_addr_synch_multiple() that allows multiple calls to sync to multiple different devices. Original API is left alone and still has the limitation. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Team drivers attempts to sync addresses to each of the port devices; however, the current api doesn't really perform the sync for any device after the first one. Switch to using the new api that will actually sync the addresses to all ports. CC: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Vlad Yasevich authored
The current implementation of dev_uc_sync/unsync() assumes that there is a strict 1-to-1 relationship between the source and destination of the sync. In other words, once an address has been synced to a destination device, it will not be synced to any other device through the sync API. However, there are some virtual devices that aggreate a number of lower devices and need to sync addresses to all of them. The current API falls short there. This patch introduces a new dev_uc_sync_multiple() api that can be called in the above circumstances and allows sync to work for every invocation.

There is actually no need to keep this member in the structure, because after init it's always 1 anyway, thus always kfree called. This seems to be an ancient leftover from the very initial implementation from 2.5 times. Only in case the initialization of an association fails, we leave base.malloced as 0, but we nevertheless kfree it in the error path in sctp_association_new().

Commit 10b96f73 (``tcp_memcontrol: remove a redundant statement in tcp_destroy_cgroup()'') says ``We read the value but make no use of it.'', but forgot to remove the variable declaration as well. This was a follow-up commit of 3f134619 (``memcg: decrement static keys at real destroy time'') that removed the read of variable 'val'.

Currently, sock_tx_timestamp() always returns 0. The comment that describes the sock_tx_timestamp() function wrongly says that it returns an error when an invalid argument is passed (from commit 20d49473, ``net: socket infrastructure for SO_TIMESTAMPING''). Make the function void, so that we can also remove all the unneeded if conditions that check for such a _non-existant_ error case in the output path.

As network adapters supporting PTP are becoming more common, machines with many NICs suddenly have many PHCs, too. The current limit of eight /dev/ptp* char devices (and thus, 8 network interfaces with PHC) is insufficient. Let the ptp driver allocate the char devices dynamically. Tested with 28 PHCs, removing and re-adding some of them. Thanks to Ben Hutchings for advice leading to simpler and cleaner patch.

I noticed that TSQ (TCP Small queues) was less effective when TSO is turned off, and GSO is on. If BQL is not enabled, TSQ has then no effect. It turns out the GSO engine frees the original gso_skb at the time the fragments are generated and queued to the NIC. We should instead call the tcp_wfree() destructor for the last fragment, to keep the flow control as intended in TSQ. This effectively limits the number of queued packets on qdisc + NIC layers.

After commit 2b8b328b (vhost_net: handle polling errors when setting backend), we in fact track the polling state through poll->wqh, so there's no need to duplicate the work with an extra vhost_net_polling_state. So this patch removes this and make the code simpler. This patch also removes the all tx starting/stopping code in tx path according to Michael's suggestion. Netperf test shows almost the same result in stream test, but gets improvements on TCP_RR tests (both zerocopy or copy) especially on low load cases.

Hadar Hen Zion authored
The different steering modes are global to the device, with DMFS being introduced after SRIOV was merged. Hence, SRIOV guests running legacy / older Linux kernels or non-Linux drivers may provide B0 steering directives when the hypervisor is using DMFS and fail. Under B0 only L2 steering rules are allowed, hence B0 is a subset of DMFS. Use this fact to enable such legacy guests to run by modifying the SRIOV B0 steering wrapper to translate guest B0 directives to DMFS ones when the device uses DMFS. The translated B0 rule has to be kept in the resource tracker as a B0 object to allow for lookup in case of detach.

The link change is detected via the interrupt pipe, and bulk pipes are responsible for transfering packets, so it is reasonable to stop bulk transfer after link is reported as off. Two adavantages may be obtained with stopping bulk transfer after link becomes off: - USB bus bandwidth is saved(USB bus is shared bus except for USB3.0), for example, lots of 'IN' token packets and 'NYET' handshake packets is transfered on 2.0 bus. - probabaly power might be saved for usb host controller since cancelling bulk transfer may disable the asynchronous schedule of host controller. With this patch, when link becomes off, about ~10% performance boost can be found on bulk transfer of anther usb device which is attached to same bus with the usbnet device, see below test on next-20130410: - read from usb mass storage(Sandisk Extreme USB 3.0) on pandaboard with below command after unplugging ethernet cable: dd if=/dev/sda iflag=direct of=/dev/null bs=1M count=800 - without the patch 1, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 36.2216 s, 23.2 MB/s 2, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 35.8368 s, 23.4 MB/s 3, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 35.823 s, 23.4 MB/s 4, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 35.937 s, 23.3 MB/s 5, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 35.7365 s, 23.5 MB/s average: 23.6MB/s - with the patch 1, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 32.3817 s, 25.9 MB/s 2, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 31.7389 s, 26.4 MB/s 3, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 32.438 s, 25.9 MB/s 4, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 32.5492 s, 25.8 MB/s 5, 838860800 bytes (839 MB) copied, 31.6178 s, 26.5 MB/s average: 26.1MB/s Signed-off-by: Ming Lei <ming.lei@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
