Currently, we're using bond_for_each_slave_from(), which is really hard to implement under RCU and/or neighbour list. Remove it and use bond_for_each_slave() instead, taking care of the last used slave. Also, rename next_rx_slave to rx_slave and store the current (last) rx_slave.

Currently, there are two loops - first we find the first slave in an aggregator after the xmit_hash_policy() returned number, and after that we loop from that slave, over bonding head, and till that slave to find any suitable slave to send the packet through. Replace it by just one bond_for_each_slave() loop, which first loops through the requested number of slaves, saving the first suitable one, and after that we've hit the requested number of slaves to skip - search for any up slave to send the packet through. If we don't find such kind of slave - then just send the packet through the first suitable slave found. Logic remains unchainged, and we skip two loops. Also, refactor it a bit for readability.

Add a possibility to iterate through netdev_adjacent's private, currently only for lower neighbours.

Use the new provided function when attaching the lower slave to populate its ->private with struct slave *new_slave. Also, move it to the end to be able to 'find' it only after it was completely initialized, and deinitialize in the first place on release.

Currently, even though we can access any linked device, we can't attach anything to it, which is vital to properly manage them. To fix this, add a new void *private to netdev_adjacent and functions setting/getting it (per link), so that we can save, per example, bonding's slave structures there, per slave device. netdev_master_upper_dev_link_private(dev, upper_dev, private) links dev to upper dev and populates the neighbour link only with private. netdev_lower_dev_get_private{,_rcu}() returns the private, if found.

Currently we have only the RTNL flavour, however we can traverse it while holding only RCU, so add the RCU search.

Currently, we distinguish neighbours (first-level linked devices) from non-neighbours by the neighbour bool in the netdev_adjacent. This could be quite time-consuming in case we would like to traverse *only* through neighbours - cause we'd have to traverse through all devices and check for this flag, and in a (quite common) scenario where we have lots of vlans on top of bridge, which is on top of a bond - the bonding would have to go through all those vlans to get its upper neighbour linked devices. This situation is really unpleasant, cause there are already a lot of cases when a device with slaves needs to go through them in hot path. To fix this, introduce a new upper/lower device lists structure - adj_list, which contains only the neighbours. It works always in pair with the all_adj_list structure (renamed from upper/lower_dev_list), i.e. both of them contain the same links, only that all_adj_list contains also non-neighbour device links. It's really a small change visible, currently, only for __netdev_adjacent_dev_insert/remove(), and doesn't change the main linked logic at all. Also, add some comments a fix a name collision in netdev_for_each_upper_dev_rcu() and rework the naming by the following rules: netdev_(all_)(upper|lower)_* If "all_" is present, then we work with the whole list of upper/lower devices, otherwise - only with direct neighbours. Uninline functions - to get better stack traces. CC: "David S.

Currently we make use of bool upper when we want to specify if we want to work with upper/lower list. It's, however, harder to read, debug and occupies a lot more code. Fix this by just passing the correct upper/lower_dev_list list_head pointer instead of bool upper, and work internally with it. CC: "David S.

Currently we always use the first member of the arp_queue to determine the sender ip address of the arp packet (or in case of IPv6 - source address of the ndisc packet). This skb is fixed as long as the queue is not drained by a complete purge because of a timeout or by a successful response. If the first packet enqueued on the arp_queue is from a local application with a manually set source address and the to be discovered system does some kind of uRPF checks on the source address in the arp packet the resolving process hangs until a timeout and restarts. This hurts communication with the participating network node. This could be mitigated a bit if we use the latest enqueued skb's source address for the resolving process, which is not as static as the arp_queue's head. This change of the source address could result in better recovery of a failed solicitation. Cc: "David S.

There was some bug report on ipv6 module removal path before. Also, as Stephen pointed out, after vxlan module gets ipv6 support, the ipv6 stub it used is not safe against this module removal either. So, let's just remove inet6_exit() so that ipv6 module will not be able to be unloaded. Cc: Hideaki YOSHIFUJI <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Cc: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Cc: David S.

Dynamic Right Sizing (DRS) is supposed to open TCP receive window automatically, but suffers from two bugs, presented by order of importance. 1) tcp_rcv_space_adjust() fix : Using twice the last received amount is very pessimistic, because it doesn't allow fast recovery or proper slow start ramp up, if sender wants to increase cwin by 100% every RTT. copied = bytes received in previous RTT 2*copied = bytes we expect to receive in next RTT 4*copied = bytes we need to advertise in rwin at end of next RTT DRS is one RTT late, it needs a 4x factor. If sender is not using ABC, and increases cwin by 50% every rtt, then we needed 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 factor. This is probably why this bug was not really noticed. 2) There is no window adjustment after first RTT. DRS triggers only after the second RTT. DRS needs two RTT to initialize, so tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() should setup sk_rcvbuf to allow proper window grow for first two RTT. This patch increases TCP efficiency particularly for large RTT flows when autotuning is used at the receiver, and more particularly in presence of packet losses.

Halve mss table size to make blind cookie guessing more difficult. This is sad since the tables were already small, but there is little alternative except perhaps adding more precise mss information in the tcp timestamp. Timestamps are unfortunately not ubiquitous. Guessing all possible cookie values still has 8-in 2**32 chance. Reported-by: Jakob Lell <jakob@jakoblell.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

We currently accept cookies that were created less than 4 minutes ago (ie, cookies with counter delta 0-3). Combined with the 8 mss table values, this yields 32 possible values (out of 2**32) that will be valid. Reducing the lifetime to < 2 minutes halves the guessing chance while still providing a large enough period. While at it, get rid of jiffies value -- they overflow too quickly on 32 bit platforms. getnstimeofday is used to create a counter that increments every 64s. perf shows getnstimeofday cost is negible compared to sha_transform; normal tcp initial sequence number generation uses getnstimeofday, too.
