* bonding: add an option to fail when any of arp_ip_target is inaccessibleVeaceslav Falico2013-06-261-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we fail only when all of the ips in arp_ip_target are gone. However, in some situations we might need to fail if even one host from arp_ip_target becomes unavailable. All situations, obviously, rely on the idea that we need *completely* functional network, with all interfaces/addresses working correctly. One real world example might be: vlans on top on bond (hybrid port). If bond and vlans have ips assigned and we have their peers monitored via arp_ip_target - in case of switch misconfiguration (trunk/access port), slave driver malfunction or tagged/untagged traffic dropped on the way - we will be able to switch to another slave. Though any other configuration needs that if we need to have access to all arp_ip_targets. This patch adds this possibility by adding a new parameter - arp_all_targets (both as a module parameter and as a sysfs knob). It can be set to: 0 or any (the default) - which works exactly as it's working now - the slave is up if any of the arp_ip_targets are up. 1 or all - the slave is up if all of the arp_ip_targets are up. This parameter can be changed on the fly (via sysfs), and requires the mode to be active-backup and arp_validate to be enabled (it obeys the arp_validate config on which slaves to validate). Internally it's done through: 1) Add target_last_arp_rx[BOND_MAX_ARP_TARGETS] array to slave struct. It's an array of jiffies, meaning that slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] is the last time we've received arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] on this slave. 2) If we successfully validate an arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] in bond_validate_arp() - update the slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] with the current jiffies value. 3) When getting slave's last_rx via slave_last_rx(), we return the oldest time when we've received an arp from any address in bond->params.arp_targets[]. If the value of arp_all_targets == 0 - we still work the same way as before. Also, update the documentation to reflect the new parameter. v3->v4: Kill the forgotten rtnl_unlock(), rephrase the documentation part to be more clear, don't fail setting arp_all_targets if arp_validate is not set - it has no effect anyway but can be easier to set up. Also, print a warning if the last arp_ip_target is removed while the arp_interval is on, but not the arp_validate. v2->v3: Use _bh spinlock, remove useless rtnl_lock() and use jiffies for new arp_ip_target last arp, instead of slave_last_rx(). On bond_enslave(), use the same initialization value for target_last_arp_rx[] as is used for the default last_arp_rx, to avoid useless interface flaps. Also, instead of failing to remove the last arp_ip_target just print a warning - otherwise it might break existing scripts. v1->v2: Correctly handle adding/removing hosts in arp_ip_target - we need to shift/initialize all slave's target_last_arp_rx. Also, don't fail module loading on arp_all_targets misconfiguration, just disable it, and some minor style fixes. Signed-off-by: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | select/poll busy-poll support. Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll. updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found. When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something. Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can return the result to the user ASAP. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezer.tamir@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Instead of scaling up from a small sk_rcvbuf value, which leads to violation of the configured sk_rcvbuf limit, we now calculate the weighted per-message limit by scaling down from a much bigger value, still in the same field, according to the importance priority of the received message. To allow for administrative tunability of the socket receive buffer size, we create a tipc_rmem sysctl variable to allow the user to configure an even bigger value via sysctl command. It is a size of three (min/default/max) to be consistent with things like tcp_rmem. By default, the value initialized in tipc_rmem[1] is equal to the receive socket size needed by a TIPC_CRITICAL_IMPORTANCE message. This value is also set as the default value of sk_rcvbuf.

It's possible that the stack has moved back up after the tbegin. The obvious case here is when the tbegin is called inside a function that returns before a tend. In this case, the stack is part of the checkpointed transactional memory state. If we write over this non transactionally or in suspend, we are in trouble because if we get a tm abort, the program counter and stack pointer will be back at the tbegin but our in memory stack won't be valid anymore. To avoid this, when taking a signal in an active transaction, we need to use the stack pointer from the checkpointed state, rather than the speculated state. This ensures that the signal context (written tm suspended) will be written below the stack required for the rollback. The transaction is aborted becuase of the treclaim, so any memory written between the tbegin and the signal will be rolled back anyway. For signals taken in non-TM or suspended mode, we use the normal/non-checkpointed stack pointer.

We need to abort these transactions and send them back to userspace for the hardware to rollback. We can service these if the user transaction is in suspend mode, since the kernel will operate in the same suspend context. This adds a check to all alignment faults and to specific instruction emulations (only string instructions for now). If the user process is in an active (non-suspended) transaction, we abort the transaction go back to userspace allowing the HW to roll back the transaction and tell the user of the failure. This also adds new tm abort cause codes to report the reason of the persistent error to the user.

This is useful in cases where a bootloader exists and has set up the display hardware, but a Linux driver doesn't yet exist for the display hardware. Examples use-cases include: * The built-in LCD panels on the Samsung ARM chromebook, and Tegra devices, and likely many other ARM or embedded systems. These cannot yet be supported using a full graphics driver, since the panel control should be provided by the CDF (Common Display Framework), which has been stuck in design/review for quite some time. One could support these panels using custom SoC-specific code, but there is a desire to use common infra-structure rather than having each SoC vendor invent their own code, hence the desire to wait for CDF. * Hardware for which a full graphics driver is not yet available, and the path to obtain one upstream isn't yet clear. For example, the Raspberry Pi. * Any hardware in early stages of upstreaming, before a full graphics driver has been tackled. This driver can provide a graphical boot console (even full X support) much earlier in the upstreaming process, thus making new SoC or board support more generally useful earlier.
