14 years agonet: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter

net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter

In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we
drop it before it enters protocol stack :
- softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat)
- bad vlan tag (not accounted)
- unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted)

We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level,
and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so
that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev)

This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped
accounting), thus reverting it.

net: introduce DST_NOCACHE flag

While doing stress tests with IP route cache disabled, and multi queue
devices, I noticed a very high contention on one rwlock used in
neighbour code.

When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high
performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the
neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on
hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test())

But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only
once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache
lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock.

Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not
inserted in route cache.

With the stress test bench, sending 160000000 frames on one neighbour,
results are :

This reverts commit e81963b180ac502fda0326edf059b1e29cdef1a2.

LRO is now deprecated in favour of GRO, and only a few drivers use it,
so it is desirable to build it as a module in distribution kernels.

The original change to prevent building it as a module was made in an
attempt to avoid the case where some dependents are set to y and some
to m, and INET_LRO can be set to m rather than y.  However, the
Kconfig system will reliably set INET_LRO=y in this case.

What is happening is, that the sk_wait_event() condition passed from
sk_stream_wait_memory() evaluates to true for the case of tcp global memory
exhaustion. This is because both sk_stream_memory_free() and vm_wait are true
which causes sk_wait_event() to *not* call schedule_timeout().
Hence sk_stream_wait_memory() returns immediately to the caller w/o sleeping.
This causes the caller to again try allocation, which again fails and again
calls sk_stream_wait_memory(), and so on.

e1000e: use hardware writeback batching

Most e1000e parts support batching writebacks.  The problem with this is
that when some of the TADV or TIDV timers are not set, Tx can sit forever.

This is solved in this patch with write flushes using the Flush Partial
Descriptors (FPD) bit in TIDV and RDTR.

This improves bus utilization and removes partial writes on e1000e,

um: Proper Fix for f25c80a4: remove duplicate structure field initialization

uml_net_set_mac() was broken and luckily it was never used, before.
What it was trying to do is spin_lock before memcopy the mac address.
Linus attempted to fix it in assumption that someone decided the
lock was needed. But since it was never ever used at all, and was
just dead code, I think we can assume that it is not needed, after
all.

On the other hand patch [f25c80a4] was trying to use eth_mac_addr()
in eth_configure(), *which was the real fallout*. Because of state
checks done inside eth_mac_addr() the address was never set. I have
not reintroduced the memcpy wrapper, but I've put a comment for future
cats.

The code now is back to exactly as it was before [f25c80a4]. With
the cleanup applied. If the spin_lock is indeed needed then a contender
should supply a test case that fails, then fix it with the proper
locking, as a separate unrelated patch.

ipv4: Allow configuring subnets as local addresses

This patch allows a host to be configured to respond to any address in
a specified range as if it were local, without actually needing to
configure the address on an interface.  This is done through routing
table configuration.  For instance, to configure a host to respond
to any address in 10.1/16 received on eth0 as a local address we can do:

ip rule add from all iif eth0 lookup 200
ip route add local 10.1/16 dev lo proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 table 200

This host is now reachable by any 10.1/16 address (route lookup on
input for packets received on eth0 can find the route).  On output, the
rule will not be matched so that this host can still send packets to
10.1/16 (not sent on loopback).  Presumably, external routing can be
configured to make sense out of this.

To make this work, we needed to modify the logic in finding the
interface which is assigned a given source address for output
(dev_ip_find).  We perform a normal fib_lookup instead of just a
lookup on the local table, and in the lookup we ignore the input
interface for matching.

This patch is useful to implement IP-anycast for subnets of virtual
addresses.

The GRE tunnel driver needs to invoke icmpv6 helpers in the

Therefore if IPV6 is enabled, we have to enforce that GRE's

as the calculation basis as before. If set, TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT is

mac80211: Fix WMM driver queue configuration

The WMM parameter configuration function (ieee80211_sta_wmm_params) only
configures the WMM parameters to the driver is the wmm_last_param_set
counter value is changed by the AP.

The wmm_last_param_set is initialized to -1 on association in order to ensure
the configuration is made to the driver at least once on association, but
currently this initialization is done *after* the WMM parameter configuration
function was called.

This leads to unreliability in the driver getting properly configured on first
association (depending on what counter value the AP happens to use.) When
disassociating (the wmm default parameters are configured to the driver) and
then reassociating, due to the above the WMM configuration is not set to the
driver at all.

On drivers without beacon filtering the problem is corrected by later beacons,
but on drivers with beacon filtering the WMM will remain permanently incorrectly
configured.

Fix this by moving the initialization of wmm_last_param_set to -1 before
ieee80211_sta_wmm_params is called on association.
