Do not set num_tx_queues or real_num_tx_queues, since alloc_etherdev_mq() does that. Signed-off-by:

This sets the active numbers of queues on a net device to match another. Signed-off-by:

Ben Hutchings authored
For RPS, we create a kobject for each RX queue based on the number of queues passed to alloc_netdev_mq(). However, drivers generally do not determine the numbers of hardware queues to use until much later, so this usually represents the maximum number the driver may use and not the actual number in use. For TX queues, drivers can update the actual number using netif_set_real_num_tx_queues(). Add a corresponding function for RX queues, netif_set_real_num_rx_queues(). Signed-off-by:

sk_attach_filter() and sk_detach_filter() are run with socket locked. Use the appropriate rcu_dereference_protected() instead of blocking BH, and rcu_dereference_bh(). There is no point adding BH prevention and memory barrier. Signed-off-by:

It seems we dont use appropriate refcount increment in an rcu_read_lock() protected section. fib_rule_get() might increment a null refcount and bad things could happen. While fib_nl_delrule() respects an rcu grace period before calling fib_rule_put(), fib_rules_cleanup_ops() calls fib_rule_put() without a grace period. Note : after this patch, we might avoid the synchronize_rcu() call done in fib_nl_delrule() Signed-off-by:

Maintain per_cpu tx_bytes, tx_packets, rx_bytes, rx_packets. Other seldom used fields are kept in netdev->stats structure, possibly unsafe. This is a preliminary work to support lockless transmit path, and correct RX stats, that are already unsafe. Signed-off-by:

It was not a fix, but at most a cleanup ;) Anyway I forgot the gretap case... [PATCH 2/4 v2] ip_gre: percpu stats accounting Maintain per_cpu tx_bytes, tx_packets, rx_bytes, rx_packets. Other seldom used fields are kept in netdev->stats structure, possibly unsafe. This is a preliminary work to support lockless transmit path, and correct RX stats, that are already unsafe.

Tunnels are going to use percpu for their accounting. They are going to use a new tstats field in net_device. skb_tunnel_rx() is changed to be a wrapper around __skb_tunnel_rx() IPTUNNEL_XMIT() is changed to be a wrapper around __IPTUNNEL_XMIT() Signed-off-by:

Phonet stack assumes the presence of Pipe Controller, either in Modem or on Application Processing Engine user-space for the Pipe data. Nokia Slim Modems like WG2.5 used in ST-Ericsson U8500 platform do not implement Pipe controller in them. This patch adds Pipe Controller implemenation to Phonet stack to support Pipe data over Phonet stack for Nokia Slim Modems. Signed-off-by:

Clean up a missing exit path in the ipv6 module init routines. In addrconf_init we call ipv6_addr_label_init which calls register_pernet_subsys for the ipv6_addr_label_ops structure. But if module loading fails, or if the ipv6 module is removed, there is no corresponding unregister_pernet_subsys call, which leaves a now-bogus address on the pernet_list, leading to oopses in subsequent registrations. This patch cleans up both the failed load path and the unload path. Tested by myself with good results. Signed-off-by:

loopback driver uses dev->ml_priv to store its percpu stats pointer. It uses ugly casts "(void __percpu __force *)" to shut up sparse complains. Define an union to better document we use ml_priv in loopback driver and define a lstats field with appropriate types. Signed-off-by:

__in_dev_get_rtnl(dev_out) is called while RTNL is not held, thus triggers a lockdep fault. At this point, we only perform a raw test of dev_out->ip_ptr being NULL, we dont need to make sure ip_ptr cant changed right after. We can use rcu_dereference_raw() for this. Reported-by:

Instead of having two places were we allocate dev->_rx, introduce netif_alloc_rx_queues() helper and call it only from register_netdevice(), not from alloc_netdev_mq() Goal is to let drivers change dev->num_rx_queues after allocating netdev and before registering it. This also removes a lot of ifdefs in net/core/dev.c Signed-off-by:

SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF current value is 256 bytes It doesnt permit to receive the smallest possible frame, considering socket sk_rmem_alloc/sk_rcvbuf account skb truesizes. On 64bit arches, sizeof(struct sk_buff) is 240 bytes. Add the typical 64 bytes of headroom, and we go over the limit. With old kernels and 32bit arches, we were under the limit, if netdriver was doing copybreak. Signed-off-by:

Automatically allows vlans to get NETIF_F_HIGHDMA if underlying device supports it. On 32bit arches (and more precisely if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled), it can help to reduce cost of illegal_highdma() and __skb_linearize() calls. Tested on tg3 , bnx2, bonding, this worked very well. This is a generalization of a patch provided by Yi Zou & Jeff Kirsher. Signed-off-by:

Compex FreedomLine 32 PnP-PCI2 cards have only TP and BNC connectors but the SROM contains AUI port too. When TP loses link, the driver switches to non-existing AUI port (which reports that carrier is always present). Connecting TP back generates LinkPass interrupt but de_media_interrupt() is broken - it only updates the link state of currently connected media, ignoring the fact that LinkPass and LinkFail bits of MacStatus register belong to the TP port only (the chip documentation says that). This patch changes de_media_interrupt() to switch media to TP when link goes up (and media type is not locked) and also to update the link state only when the TP port is used. Also the NonselPortActive (and also SelPortActive) bits of SIAStatus register need to be cleared (by writing 1) after reading or they're useless. Signed-off-by:
