Quoting Tore Anderson from : If the allfrag feature has been set on a host route (due to an ICMPv6 Packet Too Big received indicating a MTU of less than 1280), TCP SYN/ACK packets to that destination appears to get an incorrect TCP checksum. This in turn means they are thrown away as invalid. In the case of an IPv4 client behind a link with a MTU of less than 1260, accessing an IPv6 server through a stateless translator, this means that the client can only download a single large file from the server, because once it is in the server's routing cache with the allfrag feature set, new TCP connections can no longer be established. </endquote> It appears ip6_fragment() doesn't handle CHECKSUM_PARTIAL properly. As network drivers are not prepared to fetch correct transport header, a safe fix is to call skb_checksum_help() before fragmenting packet.

Just some stylings. Use #include <linux... not #include <asm... Convert a test and print to a printk_once. Combine an "if (foo) { if (bar) {" to single "if (foo && bar) {" to save an indent level. Convert single line "if (foo) bar;" to multiple lines. Move some braces. Align some long lines a bit better. Long lines and printks with KERN_ checkpatch complaints still exist.

Fix two issues introduced in commit a1c7fff7 ( net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb() ) - Must be IRQ safe (non NAPI drivers can use it) - Must not leak the frag if build_skb() fails to allocate sk_buff This patch introduces netdev_alloc_frag() for drivers willing to use build_skb() instead of __netdev_alloc_skb() variants. Factorize code so that : __dev_alloc_skb() is a wrapper around __netdev_alloc_skb(), and dev_alloc_skb() a wrapper around netdev_alloc_skb() Use __GFP_COLD flag. Almost all network drivers now benefit from skb->head_frag infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As iwlwifi use fat skbs, it should not pull too much data in skb->head, and particularly no tcp data payload, or splice() is slower, and TCP coalescing is disabled. Copying payload to userland also involves at least two copies (part from header, part from fragment) Each layer will pull its header from the fragment as needed. (on 64bit arches, skb_tailroom(skb) at this point is 192 bytes) With this patch applied, I have a major reduction of collapsed/pruned TCP packets, a nice increase of TCPRcvCoalesce counter, and overall better Internet User experience. Small packets are still using a fragless skb, so that page can be reused by the driver.

More spring cleaning! The ancient Econet protocol should go. Most of the bug fixes in recent years have been fixing security vulnerabilities. The hardware hasn't been made since the 90s, it is only interesting as an archeological curiosity.

The use of the inw/outw functions by the cs89x0 platform driver results in NULL pointer references on ARM platforms and platforms that do not provide ISA-style programmed I/O accessors. Using inw/outw also accesses the wrong address space on platforms that have a PCI I/O space that is not identity-mapped into the physical address space.

Change the TX ring scheme such that the number of rings for untagged packets and for tagged packets (per each of the vlan priorities) is the same, unlike the current situation where for tagged traffic there's one ring per priority and for untagged rings as the number of core. Queue selection is done as follows: If the mqprio qdisc is operates on the interface, such that the core networking code invoked the device setup_tc ndo callback, a mapping of skb->priority => queue set is forced - for both, tagged and untagged traffic. Else, the egress map skb->priority => User priority is used for tagged traffic, and all untagged traffic is sent through tx rings of UP 0. The patch follows the convergence of discussing that issue with John Fastabend over this thread http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/229877 Cc: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Cc: Liran Liss <liranl@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Amir Vadai <amirv@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

When I first wrote drop monitor I wrote it to just build monolithically. There is no reason it can't be built modularly as well, so lets give it that flexibiity. I've tested this by building it as both a module and monolithically, and it seems to work quite well Change notes: v2) * fixed for_each_present_cpu loops to be more correct as per Eric D. * Converted exit path failures to BUG_ON as per Ben H. v3) * Converted del_timer to del_timer_sync to close race noted by Ben H.

netdev_alloc_skb() is used by networks driver in their RX path to allocate an skb to receive an incoming frame. With recent skb->head_frag infrastructure, it makes sense to change netdev_alloc_skb() to use build_skb() and a frag allocator. This permits a zero copy splice(socket->pipe), and better GRO or TCP coalescing. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The code seems to want to look at the last byte where the HW puts some information. Since the skb->data area is never seen by the HW I guess it does not work as expected. We pass the page address to the HW so I *think* in order to get to the last byte where the information might be one should use the page buffer and take a look. This is of course not more than just compile tested.

According to the comment, errata 23 says that the memory we allocate can't cross a 64KiB boundary. In case of jumbo frames we allocate complete pages which can never cross the 64KiB boundary because PAGE_SIZE should be a multiple of 64KiB so we stop either before the boundary or start after it but never cross it. Furthermore the check seems bogus because it looks at skb->data which is not seen by the HW at all because we only pass the DMA address of the page we allocated. So I *think* the workaround is not required here.
