Remove unnecessary static on local function pointer _writer_. Such pointer is initialized before being used, on every execution path throughout the function. The static has no benefit and, removing it reduces the object file size. This issue was detected using Coccinelle and the following semantic patch: @bad exists@ position p; identifier x; type T; @@ static T x@p; ... x = <+...x...+> @@ identifier x; expression e; type T; position p != bad.p; @@ -static T x@p; ... when != x when strict ?x = e; In the following log you can see a significant difference in the object file size. This log is the output of the size command, before and after the code change: before: text data bss dec hex filename 113797 19152 1216 134165 20c15 drivers/net/wireless/cisco/airo.o after: text data bss dec hex filename 113881 19096 1152 134129 20bf1 drivers/net/wireless/cisco/airo.o Signed-off-by: -

This patch removes the definition of PGV_FROM_VMALLOC from af_packet.c. The PGV_FROM_VMALLOC definition was already removed by commit 441c793a ("net: cleanup unused macros in net directory"), and its usage was removed even before by commit c56b4d90 ("af_packet: remove pgv.flags"); but it was added back by mistake later on, in commit f6fb8f10 ("af-packet: TPACKET_V3 flexible buffer implementation").

Two arrays are clearly bit maps, so, make that explicit by converting to bitmap API and remove custom helpers. Note sig_ind() uses out of boundary bit to (looks like) protect against potential bitmap_empty() checks for the same bitmap. This patch removes that since: 1) that didn't guarantee atomicity anyway; 2) the first operation inside the for-loop is set bit in the bitmap (which effectively makes it non-empty); 3) group_optimization() doesn't utilize possible emptiness of the bitmap in question. Thus, if there is a protection needed it should be implemented properly. Signed-off-by:

This patch adjusts the timeout formula to schedule the TCP loss probe (TLP). The previous formula uses 2*SRTT or 1.5*RTT + DelayACKMax if only one packet is in flight. It keeps a lower bound of 10 msec which is too large for short RTT connections (e.g. within a data-center). The new formula = 2*RTT + (inflight == 1 ? 200ms : 2ticks) which performs better for short and fast connections. Signed-off-by:

When calling the flow_free() to free the flow, we call many times (cpu_possible_mask, eg. 128 as default) cpumask_next(). That will take up our CPU usage if we call the flow_free() frequently. When we put all packets to userspace via upcall, and OvS will send them back via netlink to ovs_packet_cmd_execute(will call flow_free). The test topo is shown as below. VM01 sends TCP packets to VM02, and OvS forward packtets. When testing, we use perf to report the system performance. VM01 --- OvS-VM --- VM02 Without this patch, perf-top show as below: The flow_free() is 3.02% CPU usage. 4.23% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore 3.62% [kernel] [k] __do_softirq 3.16% [kernel] [k] __memcpy 3.02% [kernel] [k] flow_free 2.42% libc-2.17.so [.] __memcpy_ssse3_back 2.18% [kernel] [k] copy_user_generic_unrolled 2.17% [kernel] [k] find_next_bit When applied this patch, perf-top show as below: Not shown on the list anymore. 4.11% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore 3.79% [kernel] [k] __do_softirq 3.46% [kernel] [k] __memcpy 2.73% libc-2.17.so [.] __memcpy_ssse3_back 2.25% [kernel] [k] copy_user_generic_unrolled 1.89% libc-2.17.so [.] _int_malloc 1.53% ovs-vswitchd [.] xlate_actions With this patch, the TCP throughput(we dont use Megaflow Cache + Microflow Cache) between VMs is 1.18Gbs/sec up to 1.30Gbs/sec (maybe ~10% performance imporve). This patch adds cpumask struct, the cpu_used_mask stores the cpu_id that the flow used. And we only check the flow_stats on the cpu we used, and it is unncessary to check all possible cpu when getting, cleaning, and updating the flow_stats. Adding the cpu_used_mask to sw_flow struct does’t increase the cacheline number. Signed-off-by:

In the ovs_flow_stats_update(), we only use the node var to alloc flow_stats struct. But this is not a common case, it is unnecessary to call the numa_node_id() everytime. This patch is not a bugfix, but there maybe a small increase. Signed-off-by:

Rick Farrington says: ==================== liquidio: avoid vm low memory crashes This patchset addresses issues brought about by low memory conditions in a VM. These conditions were not seen when the driver was exercised normally. Rather, they were brought about through manual fault injection. They are being included in the interest of hardening the driver against unforeseen circumstances. 1. Fix GPF in octeon_init_droq(); zero the allocated block 'recv_buf_list'. This prevents a GPF trying to access an invalid 'recv_buf_list[i]' entry in octeon_droq_destroy_ring_buffers() if init didn't alloc all entries. 2. Don't dereference a NULL ptr in octeon_droq_destroy_ring_buffers(). 3. For defensive programming, zero the allocated block 'oct->droq' in octeon_setup_output_queues() and 'oct->instr_queue' in octeon_setup_instr_queues(). change log: V1 -> V2: 1. Corrected syntax in 'Subject' lines; no functional or code changes. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== mlxsw: Preparations for IPv6 UC router Ido says: The purpose of this set is to prepare the driver for the introduction of IPv6 FIB offload. It's mainly composed of small and non-functional changes, that either add the IPv6 equivalent of existing IPv4 code or aimed at making the introduction of IPv6-specific code easier. The first five patches enable IPv6 forwarding in the device and allow us to configure router interfaces (RIFs) based on inet6addr notifications. The next six patches add support for programming IPv6 neighbours into the device's table as well as dumping their activity and updating the kernel accordingly. The last 11 patches extend current infrastructure to allow us to program IPv6 routes, set catch-all IPv6 trap in case of abort and make the code more receptive towards up-coming changes. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Some of the parameters stored in the FIB entry structure are specific to IPv4 and therefore better placed in an IPv4 specific structure. Create an IPv4 specific structure that encapsulates the common FIB entry structure and contains IPv4 specific parameters. In a follow-up patchset an IPv6 specific structure will be introduced.

When we fail to insert a route we invoke the abort mechanism which flushes all the tables and inserts a default route in each, so that all packets incoming to the router will be trapped to the CPU. Upon abort, add an IPv6 default route to the IPv6 tables. Signed-off-by:

A FIB node is an entity which stores routes sharing the same prefix and length. The data structure itself is already family agnostic, but we make some of its operations agnostic as well and thus re-use them for IPv6 offload. Instead of passing an IPv4-specific structure to fib4_node_get(), pass general routing parameters and rename the function accordingly. Signed-off-by:

Thankfully, the neighbour subsystem is agnostic to the upper protocol and used by both IPv4 and IPv6. By removing assumptions regarding the neighbour type we can thus re-use much of the neighbour-related code for both IPv4 and IPv6. For each nexthop, store its gateway IP and for nexthop group store the neighbour table used by its nexthops. Use this information throughout the code and remove assumption about the neighbour type.
