Inspection of upper layer protocol is considered harmful, especially
if it is about ARP or other stateful upper layer protocol; driver
cannot (and should not) have full state of them.
IPv4 over Firewire module used to inspect ARP (both in sending path
and in receiving path), and record peer's GUID, max packet size, max
speed and fifo address. This patch removes such inspection by extending
our "hardware address" definition to include other information as well:
max packet size, max speed and fifo. By doing this, The neighbour
module in networking subsystem can cache them.
Note: As we have started ignoring sspd and max_rec in ARP/NDP, those
information will not be used in the driver when sending.
When a packet is being sent, the IP layer fills our pseudo header with
the extended "hardware address", including GUID and fifo. The driver
can look-up node-id (the real but rather volatile low-level address)
by GUID, and then the module can send the packet to the wire using
parameters provided in the extendedn hardware address.
This approach is realistic because IP over IEEE1394 (RFC2734) and IPv6
over IEEE1394 (RFC3146) share same "hardware address" format
in their address resolution protocols.
Here, extended "hardware address" is defined as follows:
union fwnet_hwaddr {
u8 u[16];
struct {
__be64 uniq_id; /* EUI-64 */
u8 max_rec; /* max packet size */
u8 sspd; /* max speed */
__be16 fifo_hi; /* hi 16bits of FIFO addr */
__be32 fifo_lo; /* lo 32bits of FIFO addr */
} __packed uc;
};
Note that Hardware address is declared as union, so that we can map full
IP address into this, when implementing MCAP (Multicast Cannel Allocation
Protocol) for IPv6, but IP and ARP subsystem do not need to know this
format in detail.
One difference between original ARP (RFC826) and 1394 ARP (RFC2734)
is that 1394 ARP Request/Reply do not contain the target hardware address
field (aka ar$tha). This difference is handled in the ARP subsystem.

This patch converts the Marvell MV643XX ethernet driver to use the
Marvell Orion MDIO driver. As a result, PowerPC and ARM platforms
registering the Marvell MV643XX ethernet driver are also updated to
register a Marvell Orion MDIO driver. This driver voluntarily overlaps
with the Marvell Ethernet shared registers because it will use a subset
of this shared register (shared_base + 0x4 to shared_base + 0x84). The
Ethernet driver is also updated to look up for a PHY device using the
Orion MDIO bus driver.
For ARM and PowerPC we register a single instance of the "mvmdio" driver
in the system like it used to be done with the use of the "shared_smi"
platform_data cookie on ARM.
Note that it is safe to register the mvmdio driver only for the "ge00"
instance of the driver because this "ge00" interface is guaranteed to
always be explicitely registered by consumers of
arch/arm/plat-orion/common.c and other instances (ge01, ge10 and ge11)
were all pointing their shared_smi to ge00. For PowerPC the in-tree
Device Tree Source files mention only one MV643XX ethernet MAC instance
so the MDIO bus driver is registered only when id == 0.

This patch implements F-RTO (foward RTO recovery):
When the first retransmission after timeout is acknowledged, F-RTO
sends new data instead of old data. If the next ACK acknowledges
some never-retransmitted data, then the timeout was spurious and the
congestion state is reverted. Otherwise if the next ACK selectively
acknowledges the new data, then the timeout was genuine and the
loss recovery continues. This idea applies to recurring timeouts
as well. While F-RTO sends different data during timeout recovery,
it does not (and should not) change the congestion control.
The implementaion follows the three steps of SACK enhanced algorithm
(section 3) in RFC5682. Step 1 is in tcp_enter_loss(). Step 2 and
3 are in tcp_process_loss(). The basic version is not supported
because SACK enhanced version also works for non-SACK connections.
The new implementation is functionally in parity with the old F-RTO
implementation except the one case where it increases undo events:
In addition to the RFC algorithm, a spurious timeout may be detected
without sending data in step 2, as long as the SACK confirms not
all the original data are dropped. When this happens, the sender
will undo the cwnd and perhaps enter fast recovery instead. This
additional check increases the F-RTO undo events by 5x compared
to the prior implementation on Google Web servers, since the sender
often does not have new data to send for HTTP.
Note F-RTO may detect spurious timeout before Eifel with timestamps
does so.

The patch series refactor the F-RTO feature (RFC4138/5682).
This is to simplify the loss recovery processing. Existing F-RTO
was developed during the experimental stage (RFC4138) and has
many experimental features. It takes a separate code path from
the traditional timeout processing by overloading CA_Disorder
instead of using CA_Loss state. This complicates CA_Disorder state
handling because it's also used for handling dubious ACKs and undos.
While the algorithm in the RFC does not change the congestion control,
the implementation intercepts congestion control in various places
(e.g., frto_cwnd in tcp_ack()).
The new code implements newer F-RTO RFC5682 using CA_Loss processing
path. F-RTO becomes a small extension in the timeout processing
and interfaces with congestion control and Eifel undo modules.
It lets congestion control (module) determines how many to send
independently. F-RTO only chooses what to send in order to detect
spurious retranmission. If timeout is found spurious it invokes
existing Eifel undo algorithms like DSACK or TCP timestamp based
detection.
The first patch removes all F-RTO code except the sysctl_tcp_frto is
left for the new implementation. Since CA_EVENT_FRTO is removed, TCP
westwood now computes ssthresh on regular timeout CA_EVENT_LOSS event.

It is very useful to do dynamic truncation of packets. In particular,
we're interested to push the necessary header bytes to the user space and
cut off user payload that should probably not be transferred for some reasons
(e.g. privacy, speed, or others). With the ancillary extension PAY_OFFSET,
we can load it into the accumulator, and return it. E.g. in bpfc syntax ...
ld #poff ; { 0x20, 0, 0, 0xfffff034 },
ret a ; { 0x16, 0, 0, 0x00000000 },
... as a filter will accomplish this without having to do a big hackery in
a BPF filter itself. Follow-up JIT implementations are welcome.

use to hook into the udp receive path.
In situations where a encapsulation user allocates resources associated with a

.destroy operation. For example, if an encap user holds a reference to the
udp socket, the destroy hook might be used to relinquish this reference.
This patch adds a socket destroy hook into udp, which is set and enabled

commit bd329e1 ("net: cdc_ncm: do not bind to NCM compatible MBIM devices")
introduced a new policy, preferring MBIM for dual NCM/MBIM functions if
the cdc_mbim driver was enabled. This caused a regression for users
wanting to use NCM.
Devices implementing NCM backwards compatibility according to section
3.2 of the MBIM v1.0 specification allow either NCM or MBIM on a single
USB function, using different altsettings. The cdc_ncm and cdc_mbim
drivers will both probe such functions, and must agree on a common
policy for selecting either MBIM or NCM. Until now, this policy has
been set at build time based on CONFIG_USB_NET_CDC_MBIM.
Use a module parameter to set the system policy at runtime, allowing the
user to prefer NCM on systems with the cdc_mbim driver.

This patch fixes a kernel crash when using precise sampling (PEBS)
after a suspend/resume. Turns out the CPU notifier code is not invoked
on CPU0 (BP). Therefore, the DS_AREA (used by PEBS) is not restored properly
by the kernel and keeps it power-on/resume value of 0 causing any PEBS
measurement to crash when running on CPU0.
The workaround is to add a hook in the actual resume code to restore
the DS Area MSR value. It is invoked for all CPUS. So for all but CPU0,
the DS_AREA will be restored twice but this is harmless.

This patch allows LRO aggregation on bonded devices that contain an
NX3031 device. It also adds a for_each_netdev_in_bond_rcu(bond, slave)
macro which executes for each slave that has bond as master.
V3: After testing and discussing this with Rajesh, I decided to keep the
vlan ip cache and just rename it to ip_cache since it will store bond
ip addresses too. A new master flag has been added to the ip cache to
denote that the address has been added because of a master device.
I've taken care of the enslave/release cases by checking for various
combinations of events and flags (e.g. netxen has a master, it's a
bond master and it's not marked as a slave means it is being enslaved
and is dev_open()ed in bond_enslave).
I've changed netxen_free_ip_list() to have a "master" parameter which
causes all IP addresses marked as master to be deleted (used when a
netxen is being released). I've made the patch use the new upper
device API as well. The following cases were tested:
- bond -> netxen
- vlan -> netxen
- vlan -> bond -> netxen
V2: Remove local ip caching, retrieve addresses dynamically and
restore them if necessary.
Note: Tested with NX3031 adapter.

reference. This has been posted to LKML at

Kudos to CAI Qian, whose testing uncovered this, to Eric Dumazet, who

* 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu:
list: Fix double fetch of pointer in hlist_entry_safe()
The current version of hlist_entry_safe() fetches the pointer twice,
once to test for NULL and the other to compute the offset back to the
enclosing structure. This is OK for normal lock-based use because in
that case, the pointer cannot change. However, when the pointer is
protected by RCU (as in "rcu_dereference(p)"), then the pointer can
change at any time. This use case can result in the following sequence
of events:
1. CPU 0 invokes hlist_entry_safe(), fetches the RCU-protected
pointer as sees that it is non-NULL.
2. CPU 1 invokes hlist_del_rcu(), deleting the entry that CPU 0
just fetched a pointer to. Because this is the last entry
in the list, the pointer fetched by CPU 0 is now NULL.
3. CPU 0 refetches the pointer, obtains NULL, and then gets a
NULL-pointer crash.
This commit therefore applies gcc's "({ })" statement expression to
create a temporary variable so that the specified pointer is fetched
only once, avoiding the above sequence of events. Please note that
it is the caller's responsibility to use rcu_dereference() as needed.
This allows RCU-protected uses to work correctly without imposing
any additional overhead on the non-RCU case.
Many thanks to Eric Dumazet for spotting root cause!

Hi.
I'm trying to send big chunks of memory from application address space via
TCP socket using vmsplice + splice like this
mem = mmap(128Mb);
vmsplice(pipe[1], mem); /* splice memory into pipe */
splice(pipe[0], tcp_socket); /* send it into network */
When I'm lucky and a huge page splices into the pipe and then into the socket
_and_ client and server ends of the TCP connection are on the same host,
communicating via lo, the whole connection gets stuck! The sending queue
becomes full and app stops writing/splicing more into it, but the receiving
queue remains empty, and that's why.
The __skb_fill_page_desc observes a tail page of a huge page and erroneously
propagates its page->pfmemalloc value onto socket (the pfmemalloc on tail pages
contain garbage). Then this skb->pfmemalloc leaks through lo and due to the
tcp_v4_rcv
sk_filter
if (skb->pfmemalloc && !sock_flag(sk, SOCK_MEMALLOC)) /* true */

no packets reach the socket. Even TCP re-transmits are dropped by this, as skb
cloning clones the pfmemalloc flag as well.
That said, here's the proper page->pfmemalloc propagation onto socket: we
must check the huge-page's head page only, other pages' pfmemalloc and mapping
values do not contain what is expected in this place. However, I'm not sure
whether this fix is _complete_, since pfmemalloc propagation via lo also
oesn't look great.
Both, bit propagation from page to skb and this check in sk_filter, were
introduced by c48a11c7 (netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb), in v3.5 so

Chrome OS team reported a crash on a Pixel ChromeBook in TCP stack :
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=182056
commit a21d45726a (tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx
path) did a poor choice adding an 'avail_size' field to skb, while
what we really needed was a 'reserved_tailroom' one.
It would have avoided commit 22b4a4f22d (tcp: fix retransmit of
partially acked frames) and this commit.
Crash occurs because skb_split() is not aware of the 'avail_size'
management (and should not be aware)

This partially reverts commit 1696e6bc2a
("mtd: nand: kill NAND_NO_READRDY").
In that patch I overlooked a few things.
The original documentation for NAND_NO_READRDY included "True for all
large page devices, as they do not support autoincrement." I was
conflating "not support autoincrement" with the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR option,
which was in fact doing nothing. So, when I dropped NAND_NO_AUTOINCR, I
concluded that I then could harmlessly drop NAND_NO_READRDY. But of
course the fact the NAND_NO_AUTOINCR was doing nothing didn't mean
NAND_NO_READRDY was doing nothing...
So, NAND_NO_READRDY is re-introduced as NAND_NEED_READRDY and applied
only to those few remaining small-page NAND which needed it in the first
place.

This is the second of the TLP patch series; it augments the basic TLP
algorithm with a loss detection scheme.
This patch implements a mechanism for loss detection when a Tail
loss probe retransmission plugs a hole thereby masking packet loss
from the sender. The loss detection algorithm relies on counting
TLP dupacks as outlined in Sec. 3 of:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dukkipati-tcpm-tcp-loss-probe-01
The basic idea is: Sender keeps track of TLP "episode" upon
retransmission of a TLP packet. An episode ends when the sender receives
an ACK above the SND.NXT (tracked by tlp_high_seq) at the time of the
episode. We want to make sure that before the episode ends the sender
receives a "TLP dupack", indicating that the TLP retransmission was
unnecessary, so there was no loss/hole that needed plugging. If the
sender gets no TLP dupack before the end of the episode, then it reduces
ssthresh and the congestion window, because the TLP packet arriving at
the receiver probably plugged a hole.

This patch series implement the Tail loss probe (TLP) algorithm described
in http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-dukkipati-tcpm-tcp-loss-probe-01. The
first patch implements the basic algorithm.
TLP's goal is to reduce tail latency of short transactions. It achieves
this by converting retransmission timeouts (RTOs) occuring due
to tail losses (losses at end of transactions) into fast recovery.
TLP transmits one packet in two round-trips when a connection is in
Open state and isn't receiving any ACKs. The transmitted packet, aka
loss probe, can be either new or a retransmission. When there is tail
loss, the ACK from a loss probe triggers FACK/early-retransmit based
fast recovery, thus avoiding a costly RTO. In the absence of loss,
there is no change in the connection state.
PTO stands for probe timeout. It is a timer event indicating
that an ACK is overdue and triggers a loss probe packet. The PTO value
is set to max(2*SRTT, 10ms) and is adjusted to account for delayed
ACK timer when there is only one oustanding packet.
TLP Algorithm
On transmission of new data in Open state:
-> packets_out > 1: schedule PTO in max(2*SRTT, 10ms).
-> packets_out == 1: schedule PTO in max(2*RTT, 1.5*RTT + 200ms)
-> PTO = min(PTO, RTO)
Conditions for scheduling PTO:
-> Connection is in Open state.
-> Connection is either cwnd limited or no new data to send.
-> Number of probes per tail loss episode is limited to one.
-> Connection is SACK enabled.
When PTO fires:
new_segment_exists:
-> transmit new segment.
-> packets_out++. cwnd remains same.
no_new_packet:
-> retransmit the last segment.
Its ACK triggers FACK or early retransmit based recovery.
ACK path:
-> rearm RTO at start of ACK processing.
-> reschedule PTO if need be.
In addition, the patch includes a small variation to the Early Retransmit
(ER) algorithm, such that ER and TLP together can in principle recover any
N-degree of tail loss through fast recovery. TLP is controlled by the same
sysctl as ER, tcp_early_retrans sysctl.
tcp_early_retrans==0; disables TLP and ER.
==1; enables RFC5827 ER.
==2; delayed ER.
==3; TLP and delayed ER. [DEFAULT]
==4; TLP only.
The TLP patch series have been extensively tested on Google Web servers.
It is most effective for short Web trasactions, where it reduced RTOs by 15%
and improved HTTP response time (average by 6%, 99th percentile by 10%).
The transmitted probes account for <0.5% of the overall transmissions.
