When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse performance. The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already accounted for. When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd overusage in combination with small DATA chunks. Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed, the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits are increased. The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for sk_(r|w)mem.

Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.

This adds a default setting for semaphores parameter, and enables semaphores by default on IVB. For now, as semaphores interaction with VTd causes random issues on SNB, we do not enable them by default. But they can still be enabled via the semaphores=1 kernel parameter. v2: enables semaphores on SNB when IO remapping is disabled, with base on Keith Packard patch.

This prevents an in-kernel division by zero which happens when we are asking for i915_chipset_val too quickly, or within a race condition between the power monitoring thread and userspace accesses via debugfs. The issue can be reproduced easily via the following command: while ``; do cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_emon_status; done This is particularly dangerous because it can be triggered by a non-privileged user by just reading the debugfs entry.
