bfe0d0298f net_sched: factorize qdisc stats handling
HTB takes into account skb is segmented in stats updates.
Generalize this to all schedulers.

They should use qdisc_bstats_update() helper instead of manipulating
bstats.bytes and bstats.packets

Add bstats_update() helper too for classes that use
gnet_stats_basic_packed fields.

Note : Right now, TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS shortcurt can be taken only if no
stab is setup on qdisc.

0363466866 net offloading: Convert checksums to use centrally computed features.
In order to compute the features for other offloads (primarily
scatter/gather), we need to first check the ability of the NIC to
offload the checksum for the packet.  Since we have already computed
this, we can directly use the result instead of figuring it out
again.

02932ce9e2 net offloading: Convert skb_need_linearize() to use precomputed features.
This switches skb_need_linearize() to use the features that have
been centrally computed.  In doing so, this fixes a problem where
scatter/gather should not be used because the card does not support
checksum offloading on that type of packet.  On device registration
we only check that some form of checksum offloading is available if
scatter/gatther is enabled but we must also check at transmission
time.  Examples of this include IPv6 or vlan packets on a NIC that
only supports IPv4 offloading.

fc741216db net offloading: Pass features into netif_needs_gso().
Now that there is a single function that can compute the device
features relevant to a packet, we don't want to run it for each
offload.  This converts netif_needs_gso() to take the features
of the device, rather than computing them itself.

f01a5236bd net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().
netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(),
so it only concerns itself with GSO features.  However, several other
places also should take into account the contents of the packet when
deciding whether to offload to hardware.  This generalizes the function
to return features about all of the various forms of offloading.  Since
offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic
in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum
logic).

9497a0518e net offloading: Accept NETIF_F_HW_CSUM for all protocols.
We currently only have software fallback for one type of checksum: the
TCP/UDP one's complement.  This means that a protocol that uses hardware
offloading for a different type of checksum (FCoE, SCTP) must directly
check the device's features and do the right thing ahead of time.  By
the time we get to dev_can_checksum(), we're only deciding whether to
apply the one algorithm in software or hardware.  NETIF_F_HW_CSUM has the
same capabilities as the software version, so we should always use it if
present.  The primary advantage of this is multiply tagged vlans can use
hardware checksumming.

Due to NLM_F_DUMP is composed of two bits, NLM_F_ROOT | NLM_F_MATCH,
when doing "if (x & NLM_F_DUMP)", it tests for _either_ of the bits
being set. Because NLM_F_MATCH's value overlaps with NLM_F_EXCL,
non-dump requests with NLM_F_EXCL set are mistaken as dump requests.

Substitute the condition to test for _all_ bits being set.

2c6607c611 net: add POLLPRI to sock_def_readable()
Leonardo Chiquitto found poll() could block forever on tcp sockets and
Urgent data was received, if the event flag only contains POLLPRI.

He did a bisection and found commit 4938d7e023 (poll: avoid extra
wakeups in select/poll) was the source of the problem.

Problem is TCP sockets use standard sock_def_readable() function for
their sk_data_ready() handler, and sock_def_readable() doesnt signal
POLLPRI.

Only TCP is affected by the problem. Adding POLLPRI to the list of flags
might trigger unnecessary schedules, but URGENT handling is such a
seldom used feature this seems a good compromise.

Thanks a lot to Leonardo for providing the bisection result and a test
program as well.

12b16dadbc filter: optimize accesses to ancillary data
We can translate pseudo load instructions at filter check time to
dedicated instructions to speed up filtering and avoid one switch().
libpcap currently uses SKF_AD_PROTOCOL, but custom filters probably use
other ancillary accesses.

Note : I made the assertion that ancillary data was always accessed with
BPF_LD|BPF_?|BPF_ABS instructions, not with BPF_LD|BPF_?|BPF_IND ones
(offset given by K constant, not by K + X register)

On x86_64, this saves a few bytes of text :

[PATCH net-next-2.6] net: timestamp cloned packet in dev_queue_xmit_nit

Now we do one clone of skb if at least one sniffer might take packet,
we also can do the skb timestamping on the clone and let original packet
unchanged.

This is a generalization of commit 8caf153974 (net: sch_netem: Fix an
inconsistency in ingress netem timestamps.)

This way, we can have a good idea when packets are delivered to our
stack (tcpdump -i ifb0), while a tcpdump on original device gives
timestamps right before ingressing.

This also speedup our stack, avoiding taking timestamps if not needed.

Idea is to add a prefetchw() call to prefetch the first cache line
indicated by skb->data. On systems with Adjacent Cache Line Prefetch,
it's probably two cache lines are prefetched.

With this patch, pktgen on Intel SR1625 server with two E5530
quad-core processors and a single ixgbe-based NIC went from 8.63Mpps
to 9.03Mpps, with 4.6% improvement.

4bc65dd8d8 filter: use size of fetched data in __load_pointer()
__load_pointer() checks data we fetch from skb is included in head
portion, but assumes we fetch one byte, instead of up to four.

This wont crash because we have extra bytes (struct skb_shared_info)
after head, but this can read uninitialized bytes.

Fix this using size of the data (1, 2, 4 bytes) in the test.

68835aba4d net: optimize INET input path further
Followup of commit b178bb3dfc (net: reorder struct sock fields)

Optimize INET input path a bit further, by :

1) moving sk_refcnt close to sk_lock.

This reduces number of dirtied cache lines by one on 64bit arches (and
64 bytes cache line size).

2) moving inet_daddr & inet_rcv_saddr at the beginning of sk

(same cache line than hash / family / bound_dev_if / nulls_node)

This reduces number of accessed cache lines in lookups by one, and dont
increase size of inet and timewait socks.
inet and tw sockets now share same place-holder for these fields.

Before patch :

offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x10
offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x40
offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x60
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x270
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x274

After patch :

offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x44
offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x48
offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x68
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x0
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x4

compute_score() (udp or tcp) now use a single cache line per ignored
item, instead of two.

While doing this analysis, I found a refcount bug in llc, I'll send a
patch for net-2.6

Meanwhile, here is the patch for net-next-2.6

Your patch then can be applied after mine.

Thanks

[PATCH] net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl()

dev_getbyhwaddr() was called under RTNL.

Rename it to dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu() and change all its caller to now use
RCU locking instead of RTNL.

Change arp_ioctl() to use RCU instead of RTNL locking.

Note: this fix a dev refcount bug in llc

2d5311e4e8 filter: add a security check at install time
We added some security checks in commit 57fe93b374
(filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory) to close a
potential leak of kernel information to user.

This added a potential extra cost at run time, while we can perform a
check of the filter itself, to make sure a malicious user doesnt try to
abuse us.

This patch adds a check_loads() function, whole unique purpose is to
make this check, allocating a temporary array of mask. We scan the
filter and propagate a bitmask information, telling us if a load M(K) is
allowed because a previous store M(K) is guaranteed. (So that
sk_run_filter() can possibly not read unitialized memory)

Note: this can uncover application bug, denying a filter attach,
previously allowed.

# take 12.5 % of flows (average)

46bcf14f44 filter: fix sk_filter rcu handling
Pavel Emelyanov tried to fix a race between sk_filter_(de|at)tach and
sk_clone() in commit 47e958eac2

Problem is we can have several clones sharing a common sk_filter, and
these clones might want to sk_filter_attach() their own filters at the
same time, and can overwrite old_filter->rcu, corrupting RCU queues.

We can not use filter->rcu without being sure no other thread could do
the same thing.

Switch code to a more conventional ref-counting technique : Do the
atomic decrement immediately and queue one rcu call back when last
reference is released.

493f377d6d tcp: Add timewait recycling bits to ipv6 connect code.
This will also improve handling of ipv6 tcp socket request
backlog when syncookies are not enabled.  When backlog
becomes very deep, last quarter of backlog is limited to
validated destinations.  Previously only ipv4 implemented
this logic, but now ipv6 does too.

Now we are only one step away from enabling timewait
recycling for ipv6, and that step is simply filling in
the implementation of tcp_v6_get_peer() and
tcp_v6_tw_get_peer().
