2007-11-07[NET]: Define infrastructure to keep 'inuse' changes in an efficent SMP/NUMA ↵Eric Dumazet
way. "struct proto" currently uses an array stats[NR_CPUS] to track change on 'inuse' sockets per protocol. If NR_CPUS is big, this means we use a big memory area for this. Moreover, all this memory area is located on a single node on NUMA machines, increasing memory pressure on the boot node. In this patch, I tried to : - Keep a fast !CONFIG_SMP implementation - Keep a fast CONFIG_SMP implementation for often used protocols (tcp,udp,raw,...) - Introduce a NUMA efficient implementation Some helper macros are defined in include/net/sock.h These macros take into account CONFIG_SMP If a "struct proto" is declared without using DEFINE_PROTO_INUSE / REF_PROTO_INUSE macros, it will automatically use a default implementation, using a dynamically allocated percpu zone. This default implementation will be NUMA efficient, but might use 32/64 bytes per possible cpu because of current alloc_percpu() implementation. However it still should be better than previous implementation based on stats[NR_CPUS] field. When a "struct proto" is changed to use the new macros, we use a single static "int" percpu variable, lowering the memory and cpu costs, still preserving NUMA efficiency.

2007-11-07[PPP]: L2TP: Fix oops in transmit and receive pathsJames Chapman
Changes made on 18-sep to fix skb handling in the pppol2tp driver broke the transmit and receive paths. Users are only running into this now because distros are now using 2.6.23 and I must have messed up when I tested the change. For receive, we now do our own calculation of how much to pull from the skb (variable length L2TP header) rather than using skb_transport_offset(). Also, if the skb isn't a data packet, it must be passed back to UDP with skb->data pointing to the UDP header. For transmit, make sure skb->sk is set up because ip_queue_xmit() needs it.

2007-11-07[IPV4]: Clean the ip_sockglue.c from some ugly ifdefsPavel Emelyanov
The #idfed CONFIG_IP_MROUTE is sometimes places inside the if-s, which looks completely bad. Similar ifdefs inside the functions looks a bit better, but they are also not recommended to be used. Provide an ifdef-ed ip_mroute_opt() helper to cleanup the code. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-11-05local_t Documentation updateMathieu Desnoyers
Grant Grundler was asking for more detail about correct usage of local atomic operations and suggested adding the resulting summary to local_ops.txt. "Please add a bit more detail. If DaveM is correct (he normally is), then there must be limits on how the local_t can be used in the kernel process and interrupt contexts. I'd like those rules spelled out very clearly since it's easy to get wrong and tracking down such a bug is quite painful."

2007-11-05libata: handle broken cable reportingAlan Cox
One or two ancient drives predated the cable spec and didn't sent the valid bits for the field. I had hoped to leave this out of libata as a piece of historical annoyance but a recent CD drive shows the same bug so we have to import support for it. Same concept as Bartlomiej's changes old IDE except that as we have centralised blacklists we can avoid keeping another private table of stuff Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
