As it is, the replay check is just performed if the replay window of the legacy implementation is nonzero. So we move the test on a nonzero replay window inside the replay check functions to be sure we are testing for the right implementation.

While testing the performance of different receive interrupt coalescing settings on a single stream TCP benchmark, I noticed two very different results. With rx-usecs=50, most of the time a connection would hit 8280 Mbps but once in a while it would hit 9330 Mbps. It turns out we are only applying the interrupt coalescing settings to the first queue and whenever the rx hash would direct us onto that queue we ran faster. With this patch applied and rx-usecs=50, I get 9330 Mbps consistently. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Acked-by: Divy Le Ray <divy@chelsio.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

When analysing performance of the cxgb3 on a ppc64 box I noticed that we weren't doing much GRO merging. It turns out we are limited by the number of SKB frags: #define MAX_SKB_FRAGS (65536/PAGE_SIZE + 2) With a 4kB page size we have 18 frags, but with a 64kB page size we only have 3 frags. I ran a single stream TCP bandwidth test to compare the performance of Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

After commit d5dbda23 "ethtool: Add support for vlan accleration.", drivers that have NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX, and/or NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX feature, but do not allow enable/disable vlan acceleration via ethtool set_flags, always return -EINVAL from that function. Fix by returning -EINVAL only if requested features do not match current settings and can not be changed by driver. Change any driver that define ethtool->set_flags to use ethtool_invalid_flags() to avoid similar problems in the future (also on drivers that do not have the problem). Tested with modified (to reproduce this bug) myri10ge driver. Cc: stable@kernel.org # 2.6.37+ Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The jme driver uses the legacy PCI power management, so it has to do some PCI-specific things in its ->suspend() and ->resume() callbacks, which isn't necessary and should better be done by the PCI sybsystem-level power management code. It also doesn't use device wakeup flags correctly. Convert jme to the new PCI power management framework and make it let the PCI subsystem take care of all the PCI-specific aspects of device handling during system power transitions.

Avoid theoretical race condition regarding accessing dev->features NETIF_F_LRO flag, which is illustrated below. CPU1 CPU2 myri10ge_clean_rx_done(): myri10ge_set_flags(): or myri10ge_set_rx_csum(): if (dev->features & NETIF_F_LRO) setup lro dev->features |= NETIF_F_LRO or dev->features &= ~NETIF_F_LRO; if (dev->features & NETIF_F_LRO) flush lro On the way reduce myri10ge_rx_done() number of arguments and calls by moving mgp->small_bytes check into that function. That reduce code size from: text data bss dec hex filename 36644 248 100 36992 9080 drivers/net/myri10ge/myri10ge.o to: text data bss dec hex filename 36037 247 100 36384 8e20 drivers/net/myri10ge/myri10ge.o on my i686 system, what should also make myri10ge_clean_rx_done() being faster.

The mac address of the bridge device may be changed when a new interface is added to the bridge. If this happens, then the bridge needs to call the network notifiers to tickle any other systems that care. Since bridge can be a module, this also means exporting the notifier function.

The current handling of echoed IP timestamp options with prespecified addresses is rather broken since the 2.2.x kernels. As far as i understand it, it should behave like when originating packets. Currently it will only timestamp the next free slot if: - there is space for *two* timestamps - some random data from the echoed packet taken as an IP is *not* a local IP This first is caused by an off-by-one error. 'soffset' points to the next free slot and so we only need to have 'soffset + 7 <= optlen'. The second bug is using sptr as the start of the option, when it really is set to 'skb_network_header(skb)'. I just use dptr instead which points to the timestamp option. Finally it would only timestamp for non-local IPs, which we shouldn't do. So instead we exclude all unicast destinations, similar to what we do in ip_options_compile().

The current SocketCAN implementation for the Bosch c_can cell doesn't account the TX bytes correctly, because it calls c_can_inval_msg_object() (which clears the msg ctrl register) before reading the DLC value: for (/* nix */; (priv->tx_next - priv->tx_echo) > 0; priv->tx_echo++) { msg_obj_no = get_tx_echo_msg_obj(priv); c_can_inval_msg_object(dev, 0, msg_obj_no); val = c_can_read_reg32(priv, &priv->regs->txrqst1); if (!(val & (1 << msg_obj_no))) { can_get_echo_skb(dev, msg_obj_no - C_CAN_MSG_OBJ_TX_FIRST); stats->tx_bytes += priv->read_reg(priv, &priv->regs->ifregs[0].msg_cntrl) & IF_MCONT_DLC_MASK; stats->tx_packets++; } } So, we will always read 0 for the DLC value and "ifconfig" will report *0* TX Bytes. The fix is quite easy: Just move c_can_inval_msg_object() to the end of the if() statement. So: * We only call c_can_inval_msg_object() if the message was actually transmitted * We read out the DLC value _before_ clearing the msg ctrl register Signed-off-by: Jan Altenberg <jan@linutronix.de> Acked-by: Kurt Van Dijck <kurt.van.dijck@eia.be> Acked-by: Wolfgang Grandegger <wg@grandegger.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

When parsing the FAC_NATIONAL_DIGIS facilities field, it's possible for a remote host to provide more digipeaters than expected, resulting in heap corruption. Check against ROSE_MAX_DIGIS to prevent overflows, and abort facilities parsing on failure. Additionally, when parsing the FAC_CCITT_DEST_NSAP and FAC_CCITT_SRC_NSAP facilities fields, a remote host can provide a length of less than 10, resulting in an underflow in a memcpy size, causing a kernel panic due to massive heap corruption. A length of greater than 20 results in a stack overflow of the callsign array. Abort facilities parsing on these invalid length values.

Crypto requests might return asynchronous. In this case we leave the rcu protected region, so force a refcount on the skb's destination entry before we enter the xfrm type input/output handlers.

When we set up the flow informations in ip_route_newports(), we take the address informations from the the rt_key_src and rt_key_dst fields of the rtable. They appear to be empty. So take the address informations from rt_src and rt_dst instead. This issue was introduced by commit 5e2b61f7 ("ipv4: Remove flowi from struct rtable.")

commit fd245a4a (net_sched: move TCQ_F_THROTTLED flag) added a race. qdisc_watchdog() is run from softirq, so special care should be taken or we can lose one state transition (THROTTLED/RUNNING) Prior to fd245a4a, we were manipulating q->flags (qdisc->flags &= ~TCQ_F_THROTTLED;) and this manipulation could only race with qdisc_warn_nonwc(). Since we want to avoid atomic ops in qdisc fast path - it was the meaning of commit 37112105 (QDISC_STATE_RUNNING dont need atomic bit ops) - fix is to move THROTTLE bit into 'state' field, this one being manipulated with SMP and IRQ safe operations.
