* packet: introduce PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket optionDaniel Borkmann2013-12-102-12/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket option, that allows for using a similar xmit() function as in pktgen instead of taking the dev_queue_xmit() path. This can be very useful when PF_PACKET applications are required to be used in a similar scenario as pktgen, but with full, flexible packet payload that needs to be provided, for example. On default, nothing changes in behaviour for normal PF_PACKET TX users, so everything stays as is for applications. New users, however, can now set PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS if needed to prevent own packets from i) reentering packet_rcv() and ii) to directly push the frame to the driver. In doing so we can increase pps (here 64 byte packets) for PF_PACKET a bit: # CPUs -- QDISC_BYPASS -- qdisc path -- qdisc path[**] 1 CPU == 1,509,628 pps -- 1,208,708 -- 1,247,436 2 CPUs == 3,198,659 pps -- 2,536,012 -- 1,605,779 3 CPUs == 4,787,992 pps -- 3,788,740 -- 1,735,610 4 CPUs == 6,173,956 pps -- 4,907,799 -- 1,909,114 5 CPUs == 7,495,676 pps -- 5,956,499 -- 2,014,422 6 CPUs == 9,001,496 pps -- 7,145,064 -- 2,155,261 7 CPUs == 10,229,776 pps -- 8,190,596 -- 2,220,619 8 CPUs == 11,040,732 pps -- 9,188,544 -- 2,241,879 9 CPUs == 12,009,076 pps -- 10,275,936 -- 2,068,447 10 CPUs == 11,380,052 pps -- 11,265,337 -- 1,578,689 11 CPUs == 11,672,676 pps -- 11,845,344 -- 1,297,412 [...] 20 CPUs == 11,363,192 pps -- 11,014,933 -- 1,245,081 [**]: qdisc path with packet_rcv(), how probably most people seem to use it (hopefully not anymore if not needed) The test was done using a modified trafgen, sending a simple static 64 bytes packet, on all CPUs. The trick in the fast "qdisc path" case, is to avoid reentering packet_rcv() by setting the RAW socket protocol to zero, like: socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0); Tradeoffs are documented as well in this patch, clearly, if queues are busy, we will drop more packets, tc disciplines are ignored, and these packets are not visible to taps anymore. For a pktgen like scenario, we argue that this is acceptable. The pointer to the xmit function has been placed in packet socket structure hole between cached_dev and prot_hook that is hot anyway as we're working on cached_dev in each send path.

| * packet: fix send path when running with proto == 0Daniel Borkmann2013-12-101-25/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e40526cb20b5 introduced a cached dev pointer, that gets hooked into register_prot_hook(), __unregister_prot_hook() to update the device used for the send path. We need to fix this up, as otherwise this will not work with sockets created with protocol = 0, plus with sll_protocol = 0 passed via sockaddr_ll when doing the bind. So instead, assign the pointer directly. The compiler can inline these helper functions automagically. While at it, also assume the cached dev fast-path as likely(), and document this variant of socket creation as it seems it is not widely used (seems not even the author of TX_RING was aware of that in his reference example [1]). Tested with reproducer from e40526cb20b5.

| * br: fix use of ->rx_handler_data in code executed on non-rx_handler pathJiri Pirko2013-12-062-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | br_stp_rcv() is reached by non-rx_handler path. That means there is no guarantee that dev is bridge port and therefore simple NULL check of ->rx_handler_data is not enough. There is need to check if dev is really bridge port and since only rcu read lock is held here, do it by checking ->rx_handler pointer. Note that synchronize_net() in netdev_rx_handler_unregister() ensures this approach as valid. Introduced originally by: commit f350a0a87374418635689471606454abc7beaa3a "bridge: use rx_handler_data pointer to store net_bridge_port pointer" Fixed but not in the best way by: commit b5ed54e94d324f17c97852296d61a143f01b227a "bridge: fix RCU races with bridge port" Reintroduced by: commit 716ec052d2280d511e10e90ad54a86f5b5d4dcc2 "bridge: fix NULL pointer deref of br_port_get_rcu" Please apply to stable trees as well.

| * net: clear local_df when passing skb between namespacesHannes Frederic Sowa2013-12-061-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We must clear local_df when passing the skb between namespaces as the packet is not local to the new namespace any more and thus may not get fragmented by local rules. Fred Templin noticed that other namespaces do fragment IPv6 packets while forwarding. Instead they should have send back a PTB. The same problem should be present when forwarding DF-IPv4 packets between namespaces.

| * tcp_memcontrol: Cleanup/fix cg_proto->memory_pressure handling.Eric W. Biederman2013-12-061-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | kill memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure. The only function of memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure was to reduce deal with the unnecessary abstraction that was tcp_memcontrol. Now that struct tcp_memcontrol is gone remove this unnecessary function, the unnecessary function pointer, and modify sk_enter_memory_pressure to set this field directly, just as sk_leave_memory_pressure cleas this field directly. This fixes a small bug I intruduced when killing struct tcp_memcontrol that caused memcg_tcp_enter_memory_pressure to never be called and thus failed to ever set cg_proto->memory_pressure. Remove the cg_proto enter_memory_pressure function as it now serves no useful purpose. Don't test cg_proto->memory_presser in sk_leave_memory_pressure before clearing it. The test was originally there to ensure that the pointer was non-NULL. Now that cg_proto is not a pointer the pointer does not matter. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

Keep track of many frames arrived in a specific time range (need to enable through debugfs and configure the bins ranges) Signed-off-by: Matti Gottlieb <matti.gottlieb@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

While at it, split 5 and 10 MHz capability flags in case we ever need to support hardware that can only do one of the two. Also move the flag settings to the split-only information so we don't increase the space needed for old userspace.

Unsupported rates attempts can trigger when there are holes in bitfields of supported MCSes belonging to the same group (e.g many devices are MCS32 capable without MCS33->39 capable, also we systematically have a hole for CCK rates). Drop any attempts to sample unsupported rates, as suggested by Felix. This is not a problem in minstrel which fills a per STA sample table with only supported rates (though only at init).

| | | * | | mac80211: minstrels: spare numerous useless calls to get_random_bytesKarl Beldan2013-11-252-4/+2

This change moves the call to get_random_bytes from the nested loop it is in to its parent. While at it, replace get_random_bytes with prandom_bytes since PRNs are way enough for the selection process. After this, minstrel_ht reclaims 80 PR-bytes instead of 640 R-bytes. minstrels use sample tables to probe different rates in a randomized manner. minstrel_ht inits one single sample table upon registration (during subsys_initcalls) and minstrel uses one per STA addition in minstrel.

ATM minstrel_ht uses MCS_GROUP_RATES in place of this 8 modulus. This change replaces such occurences and by doing so allows for different values of MCS_GROUP_RATES (e.g to cope with VHT MCS8,9).

Tuning to a narrower channel might help reducing the noise level and saving some power. The min required channel definition is the max of all min required channel definitions of the interfaces bound to this channel context. In AP mode, use 20MHz when there are no connected station. When a new station is added/removed, calculate the new max bandwidth supported by any of the stations (e.g. 80MHz when 80MHz and 40MHz stations are connected). In other cases, simply use bss_conf.chandef as the min required chandef. Notify drivers about changes to this field by calling drv_change_chanctx with a new CHANGE_MIN_WIDTH notification.
