We are going to delete the Token ring support.

2012-04-27ipv6: RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG causes inefficient TCP segment sizingEric Dumazet1-0/+1
Quoting Tore Anderson from : https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42572 When RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is set on a route, the effective TCP segment size does not take into account the size of the IPv6 Fragmentation header that needs to be included in outbound packets, causing every transmitted TCP segment to be fragmented across two IPv6 packets, the latter of which will only contain 8 bytes of actual payload. RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is typically set on a route in response to receving a ICMPv6 Packet Too Big message indicating a Path MTU of less than 1280 bytes. 1280 bytes is the minimum IPv6 MTU, however ICMPv6 PTBs with MTU < 1280 are still valid, in particular when an IPv6 packet is sent to an IPv4 destination through a stateless translator. Any ICMPv4 Need To Fragment packets originated from the IPv4 part of the path will be translated to ICMPv6 PTB which may then indicate an MTU of less than 1280. The Linux kernel refuses to reduce the effective MTU to anything below 1280 bytes, instead it sets it to exactly 1280 bytes, and RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG is also set. However, the TCP segment size appears to be set to 1240 bytes (1280 Path MTU - 40 bytes of IPv6 header), instead of 1232 (additionally taking into account the 8 bytes required by the IPv6 Fragmentation extension header). This in turn results in rather inefficient transmission, as every transmitted TCP segment now is split in two fragments containing 1232+8 bytes of payload. After this patch, all the outgoing packets that includes a Fragmentation header all are "atomic" or "non-fragmented" fragments, i.e., they both have Offset=0 and More Fragments=0.

2012-04-23tcp: sk_add_backlog() is too agressive for TCPEric Dumazet1-1/+2
While investigating TCP performance problems on 10Gb+ links, we found a tcp sender was dropping lot of incoming ACKS because of sk_rcvbuf limit in sk_add_backlog(), especially if receiver doesnt use GRO/LRO and sends one ACK every two MSS segments. A sender usually tweaks sk_sndbuf, but sk_rcvbuf stays at its default value (87380), allowing a too small backlog. A TCP ACK, even being small, can consume nearly same truesize space than outgoing packets. Using sk_rcvbuf + sk_sndbuf as a limit makes sense and is fast to compute. Performance results on netperf, single flow, receiver with disabled GRO/LRO : 7500 Mbits instead of 6050 Mbits, no more TCPBacklogDrop increments at sender.

2012-04-21tcp: move duplicate code from tcp_v4_init_sock()/tcp_v6_init_sock()Neal Cardwell1-49/+1
This commit moves the (substantial) common code shared between tcp_v4_init_sock() and tcp_v6_init_sock() to a new address-family independent function, tcp_init_sock(). Centralizing this functionality should help avoid drift issues, e.g. where the IPv4 side is updated without a corresponding update to IPv6. There was already some drift: IPv4 initialized snd_cwnd to TCP_INIT_CWND, while the IPv6 side was still initializing snd_cwnd to 2 (in this case it should not matter, since snd_cwnd is also initialized in tcp_init_metrics(), but the general risks and maintenance overhead remain). When diffing the old and new code, note that new tcp_init_sock() function uses the order of steps from the tcp_v4_init_sock() implementation (the order is slightly different in tcp_v6_init_sock()).

register_sysctl_rotable never caught on as an interesting way to register sysctls. My take on the situation is that what we want are sysctls that we can only see in the initial network namespace. What we have implemented with register_sysctl_rotable are sysctls that we can see in all of the network namespaces and can only change in the initial network namespace. That is a very silly way to go. Just register the network sysctls in the initial network namespace and we don't have any weird special cases to deal with. The sysctls affected are: /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_secret_interval /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_max_dist /proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_secret_interval /proc/sys/net/ipv6/mld_max_msf I really don't expect anyone will miss them if they can't read them in a child user namespace.

When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Fix bluetooth userland regression reported by Keith Packard, from Gustavo Padovan. 2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan. 3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet. 4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal Cardwell. 5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end defeating this specification. This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available. Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the slack added for the device's tailroom needs. Reported by Marc Merlin and fixed by Eric Dumazet. 6) Leaks, endian bugs, and new device IDs in bluetooth from Santosh Nayak, João Paulo Rechi Vita, Cho, Yu-Chen, Andrei Emeltchenko, AceLan Kao, and Andrei Emeltchenko. 7) OOPS on tty_close fix in bluetooth's hci_ldisc from Johan Hovold. 8) netfilter erroneously scales TCP window twice, fix from Changli Gao. 9) Memleak fix in wext-core from Julia Lawall. 10) Consistently handle invalid TCP packets in ipv4 vs. ipv6 conntrack, from Jozsef Kadlecsik. 11) Validate IP header length properly in netfilter conntrack's ipv4_get_l4proto(). * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (39 commits) NFC: Fix the LLCP Tx fragmentation loop rtlwifi: Add missing DMA buffer unmapping for PCI drivers rtlwifi: Preallocate USB read buffers and eliminate kalloc in read routine tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx path net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leaves MAINTAINERS: Mark NATSEMI driver as orphan'd. tcp: fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() use of an unscaled RTT sample tcp: restore correct limit Revert "ath9k: fix going to full-sleep on PS idle" rt2x00: Fix rfkill_polling register function. bcma: fix build error on MIPS; implicit pcibios_enable_device netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix incorrect logic in nf_conntrack_init_net netfilter: nf_ct_ipv4: packets with wrong ihl are invalid netfilter: nf_ct_ipv4: handle invalid IPv4 and IPv6 packets consistently net/wireless/wext-core.c: add missing kfree rtlwifi: Fix oops on rate-control failure mac80211: Convert WARN_ON to WARN_ON_ONCE rtlwifi: rtl8192de: Fix firmware initialization nl80211: ensure interface is up in various APIs ...

As specified in RFC6106, DNSSL option contains one or more domain names of DNS suffixes. 8-bit identifier of the DNSSL option type as assigned by the IANA is 31. This option should also be treated as userland. Signed-off-by: Alexey I. Froloff <raorn@raorn.name> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
