* net: Add sendmmsg socket system callAnton Blanchard2011-05-052-46/+169
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a multiple message send syscall and is the send version of the existing recvmmsg syscall. This is heavily based on the patch by Arnaldo that added recvmmsg. I wrote a microbenchmark to test the performance gains of using this new syscall: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/sendmmsg_test.c The test was run on a ppc64 box with a 10 Gbit network card. The benchmark can send both UDP and RAW ethernet packets. 64B UDP batch pkts/sec 1 804570 2 872800 (+ 8 %) 4 916556 (+14 %) 8 939712 (+17 %) 16 952688 (+18 %) 32 956448 (+19 %) 64 964800 (+20 %) 64B raw socket batch pkts/sec 1 1201449 2 1350028 (+12 %) 4 1461416 (+22 %) 8 1513080 (+26 %) 16 1541216 (+28 %) 32 1553440 (+29 %) 64 1557888 (+30 %) We see a 20% improvement in throughput on UDP send and 30% on raw socket send.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Force dev_alloc_name() to be called from register_netdevice() by dev_get_valid_name(). That allows to remove multiple explicit dev_alloc_name() calls. The possibility to call dev_alloc_name in advance remains.

* net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacksEric Dumazet2011-05-027-22/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks. I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations. This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow on a workload adding/removing network devices in background. All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does roughly a revert of commits : 1c2d670f366 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks 6313c1e0992 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed. It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu read section.

* | ipv4: Make sure flowi4->{saddr,daddr} are always set.David S. Miller2011-05-021-6/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Slow path output route resolution always makes sure that ->{saddr,daddr} are set, and also if we trigger into IPSEC resolution we initialize them as well, because xfrm_lookup() expects them to be fully resolved. But if we hit the fast path and flowi4->flowi4_proto is zero, we won't do this initialization. Therefore, move the IPSEC path initialization to the route cache lookup fast path to make sure these are always set. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | ethtool: cosmetic: Use ethtool ethtool_cmd_speed APIDavid Decotigny2011-04-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This updates the network drivers so that they don't access the ethtool_cmd::speed field directly, but use ethtool_cmd_speed() instead. For most of the drivers, these changes are purely cosmetic and don't fix any problem, such as for those 1GbE/10GbE drivers that indirectly call their own ethtool get_settings()/mii_ethtool_gset(). The changes are meant to enforce code consistency and provide robustness with future larger throughputs, at the expense of a few CPU cycles for each ethtool operation. All drivers compiled with make allyesconfig ion x86_64 have been updated.

* | ethtool: Call ethtool's get/set_settings callbacks with cleaned dataDavid Decotigny2011-04-292-14/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes sure that when a driver calls the ethtool's get/set_settings() callback of another driver, the data passed to it is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET). This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings() does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline.

* | ipv4, ipv6, bonding: Restore control over number of peer notificationsBen Hutchings2011-04-292-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For backward compatibility, we should retain the module parameters and sysfs attributes to control the number of peer notifications (gratuitous ARPs and unsolicited NAs) sent after bonding failover. Also, it is possible for failover to take place even though the new active slave does not have link up, and in that case the peer notification should be deferred until it does. Change ipv4 and ipv6 so they do not automatically send peer notifications on bonding failover. Change the bonding driver to send separate NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS notifications when the link is up, as many times as requested. Since it does not directly control which protocols send notifications, make num_grat_arp and num_unsol_na aliases for a single parameter. Bump the bonding version number and update its documentation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet->opt ip_options Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc->opt (struct ip_options), without any protection against another thread manipulating inet->opt. Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us. Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt). Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying. We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new ip_options_rcu structure.

* | ipv4: Remove erroneous check in igmpv3_newpack() and igmp_send_report().David S. Miller2011-04-271-10/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Output route resolution never returns a route with rt_src set to zero (which is INADDR_ANY). Even if the flow key for the output route lookup specifies INADDR_ANY for the source address, the output route resolution chooses a real source address to use in the final route. This test has existed forever in igmp_send_report() and David Stevens simply copied over the erroneous test when implementing support for IGMPv3. Signed-off-by: David S.

* | ipv4: Sanitize and simplify ip_route_{connect,newports}()David S. Miller2011-04-275-16/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These functions are used together as a unit for route resolution during connect(). They address the chicken-and-egg problem that exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing, yet such port allocations require addressing information from the routing code. It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice. Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object. That way we only need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call. Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the route re-lookup. Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works in a big comment. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the call to take the transport parameter and set the cached 'dst' appropriately inside the get_dst() function calls. This will allow us in the future to clean up source address storage as well.
