Unfortunately it is not clear from code is usage of IMR register possible or not. So, to prevent possible side-effects of reading this register i prefer store interrupts enable flag separately. Signed-off-by: Tony Zelenoff <antonz@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Looks like direct writes to IMR register is not good idea, because there are exist functions to make this work. Signed-off-by: Tony Zelenoff <antonz@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Make the tx ints processing same as rx ones via napi. The idea got from e1000. The interrupt disabling is still not fine grained. Signed-off-by: Tony Zelenoff <antonz@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This is first step, here there is no fine interrupt disabling which cause TX/ERR interrupts stalling when RX scheduled ints processed. Signed-off-by: Tony Zelenoff <antonz@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Sending general queries was implemented as an optimisation to speed up convergence on start-up. In order to prevent interference with multicast routers a zero source address has to be used. Unfortunately these packets appear to cause some multicast-aware switches to misbehave, e.g., by disrupting multicast packets to us. Since the multicast snooping feature still functions without sending our own queries, this patch will change the default to not send queries. For those that need queries in order to speed up convergence on start-up, a toggle is provided to restore the previous behaviour.

As it stands when we discover that a real querier (one that queries with a non-zero source address) we stop querying. However, even after said querier has fallen off the edge of the earth, we will never restart querying (unless the bridge itself is restarted). This patch fixes this by kicking our own querier into gear when the timer for other queriers expire. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

As hypervior does not have the knowledge of guest network configuration, it's better to ask guest to send gratuitous packets when needed. This patch implements VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE feature: hypervisor would notice the guest when it thinks it's time for guest to announce the link presnece. Guest tests VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE bit during config change interrupt and woule send gratuitous packets through netif_notify_peers() and ack the notification through ctrl vq. We need to make sure the atomicy of read and ack in guest otherwise we may ack more times than being notified. This is done through handling the whole config change interrupt in an non-reentrant workqueue. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

We must try harder to get unique (addr, port) pairs when doing port autoselection for sockets with SO_REUSEADDR option set. We achieve this by adding a relaxation parameter to inet_csk_bind_conflict. When 'relax' parameter is off we return a conflict whenever the current searched pair (addr, port) is not unique. This tries to address the problems reported in patch: 8d238b25 Revert "tcp: bind() fix when many ports are bound" Tests where ran for creating and binding(0) many sockets on 100 IPs. The results are, on average: * 60000 sockets, 600 ports / IP: * 0.210 s, 620 (IP, port) duplicates without patch * 0.219 s, no duplicates with patch * 100000 sockets, 1000 ports / IP: * 0.371 s, 1720 duplicates without patch * 0.373 s, no duplicates with patch * 200000 sockets, 2000 ports / IP: * 0.766 s, 6900 duplicates without patch * 0.768 s, no duplicates with patch * 500000 sockets, 5000 ports / IP: * 2.227 s, 41500 duplicates without patch * 2.284 s, no duplicates with patch Signed-off-by: Alex Copot <alex.mihai.c@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Baluta <dbaluta@ixiacom.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Replace occurrences of 'if (<bool expr> == <1|0>)' with 'if ([!]<bool expr>)' Replace occurrences of '<bool var> = (<non-bool expr>) ? true : false' with '<bool var> = <non-bool expr>'. Replace occurrence of '<bool var> = <non-bool expr>' with '<bool var> = !!<non-bool expr>' While the latter replacement is not really necessary, it is done here for consistency and clarity.

Most machines dont use UDP encapsulation (L2TP) Adds a static_key so that udp_queue_rcv_skb() doesnt have to perform a test if L2TP never setup the encap_rcv on a socket. Idea of this patch came after Simon Horman proposal to add a hook on TCP as well. If static_key is not yet enabled, the fast path does a single JMP . When static_key is enabled, JMP destination is patched to reach the real encap_type/encap_rcv logic, possibly adding cache misses.
