The error pointer argument in netlink message handlers is used to signal the special case where processing has to be interrupted because a dump was started but no error happened. Instead it is simpler and more clear to return -EINTR and have netlink_run_queue() deal with getting the queue right. nfnetlink passed on this error pointer to its subsystem handlers but only uses it to signal the start of a netlink dump. Therefore it can be removed there as well. This patch also cleans up the error handling in the affected message handlers to be consistent since it had to be touched anyway. Signed-off-by:

Changes netlink_rcv_skb() to skip netlink controll messages and don't pass them on to the message handler. Signed-off-by:

netlink_rcv_skb() is changed to skip messages which don't have the NLM_F_REQUEST bit to avoid every netlink family having to perform this check on their own. Signed-off-by:

If possible, avoid having to do a transmit softirq when a qdisc watchdog decides to re-enable. The watchdog routine runs off a timer, so it is already in the same effective context as the softirq. Signed-off-by:

The netem code would call getnstimeofday() and dequeue/requeue after every packet, even if it was waiting. Avoid this overhead by using the throttled flag. Signed-off-by:

In most cases, the next packet will be sent after the last one. So optimize that case. Signed-off-by:

If you setup netem to just delay packets; "tc qdisc ls" will report the reordering as 100%. Well it's a lie, reorder isn't used unless gap is set, so just set value to 0 so the output of utility is correct. Signed-off-by:

Minor optimization of div64_64. do_div() already does optimization for the case of 32 by 32 divide, so no need to do it here. Signed-off-by:

Implements a unified, protocol independant rules dumping function which is capable of both, dumping a specific protocol family or all of them. This speeds up dumping as less lookups are required. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a new interface to register rtnetlink message handlers replacing the exported rtnl_links[] array which required many message handlers to be exported unnecessarly. Signed-off-by:

The patch follows the following recommendation made in an erratum to RFC 4342: "Senders MAY additionally make use of other available RTT measurements, including those from the initial Request-Response packet exchange." It implements larger initial windows with regard to this inital RTT measurement, using the mechanism suggested in draft-ietf-dccp-rfc3448bis, section 4.2. Signed-off-by:

This replaces the existing occurrences of RTT sampling with the use of the new function dccp_sample_rtt. Signed-off-by:
-
Gerrit Renker authored
A recurring problem, in particular in the CCID code, is that RTT samples from packets with timestamp echo and elapsed time options need to be taken. This service is provided via a new function dccp_sample_rtt in this patch. Furthermore, to protect against `insane' RTT samples, the sampled value is bounded between 100 microseconds and 4 seconds - for which u32 is sufficient. Signed-off-by:

This updates the code with regard to handling idle and application-limited periods as specified in [RFC 4342, 5.1]. Background:
-
Gerrit Renker authored
The CCID 3 and TFRC specs (RFC 4342, RFC 3448, draft-3448bis) make frequent reference to the computation of the RFC-3390 initial sending rate: 1. Initial sending rate when RTT is known (RFC 4342, p. 6) 2. Response to Idle/Application-Limited periods (RFC 4342, 5.1) This warrants putting the code into its own function, for later code reuse.

This clears the following sparc64 build warnings: 1) warning: format "%ld" expects type "long int", but argument 3 has type "suseconds_t" 2) warning: format "%llu" expects type "long long unsigned int", but argument 3 has type "__u64" Fixed by using typecast to unsigned. This is argued to be safe, since the quantities, after de-scaling (factor 2^6) fit all in u32. Signed-off-by:

This adds a few more fields of interest to /proc/net/dccpprobe, the following output ensues: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 sec.usec src:sport dst:dport size s rtt p X_calc X_recv X t_ipi Also made the formatting consistent.

Currently debugging output (when configured) is automatically enabled when DCCP modules are compiled into the kernel rather than built as loadable modules. This is not necessary, since the module parameters in this case become kernel commandline parameters, e.g. DCCP or CCID3 debug output can be enabled for a static build by appending the following at the boot prompt: dccp.dccp_debug=1 dccp_ccid3.ccid3_debug=1 This patch therefore does away with the more complicated way of always enabling debug output for static builds Signed-off-by:

This: 1. removes a race condition in the access to the scheduled send time t_nom which results from allowing asynchronous r/w access to t_nom without locks; 2. updates the inter-packet interval t_ipi = s/X when `s' changes, following a suggestion by Ian McDonald. Signed-off-by: -
