skb_gro_receive() is currently limited to 16 or 17 MSS per GRO skb, typically 24616 bytes, because it fills up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags. It's relatively easy to extend the skb using frag_list to allow more frags to be appended into the last sk_buff. This still builds very efficient skbs, and allows reaching 45 MSS per skb. (45 MSS GRO packet uses one skb plus a frag_list containing 2 additional sk_buff) High speed TCP flows benefit from this extension by lowering TCP stack cpu usage (less packets stored in receive queue, less ACK packets processed) Forwarding setups could be hurt, as such skbs will need to be linearized, although its not a new problem, as GRO could already provide skbs with a frag_list. We could make the 65536 bytes threshold a tunable to mitigate this. (First time we need to linearize skb in skb_needs_linearize(), we could lower the tunable to ~16*1460 so that following skb_gro_receive() calls build smaller skbs) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

We can only setup multicast address for network device when net_device_ops->ndo_set_rx_mode is not null. Some configurations need to add multicast address for net device, such as netfilter cluster match module. Add a fake ndo_set_rx_mode function to allow this operation.

TCP listener refactoring, part 4 : To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct sock_common Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV. Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall). inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6 This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4, we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6, it's not doable easily. inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr at the same offset. We get rid of INET6_TW_MATCH() as INET6_MATCH() is now the generic macro. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

TCP listener refactoring, part 3 : Our goal is to hash SYN_RECV sockets into main ehash for fast lookup, and parallel SYN processing. Current inet_ehash_bucket contains two chains, one for ESTABLISH (and friend states) sockets, another for TIME_WAIT sockets only. As the hash table is sized to get at most one socket per bucket, it makes little sense to have separate twchain, as it makes the lookup slightly more complicated, and doubles hash table memory usage. If we make sure all socket types have the lookup keys at the same offsets, we can use a generic and faster lookup. It turns out TIME_WAIT and ESTABLISHED sockets already have common lookup fields for IPv4. [ INET_TW_MATCH() is no longer needed ] I'll provide a follow-up to factorize IPv6 lookup as well, to remove INET6_TW_MATCH() This way, SYN_RECV pseudo sockets will be supported the same. A new sock_gen_put() helper is added, doing either a sock_put() or inet_twsk_put() [ and will support SYN_RECV later ]. Note this helper should only be called in real slow path, when rcu lookup found a socket that was moved to another identity (freed/reused immediately), but could eventually be used in other contexts, like sock_edemux() Before patch : dmesg | grep "TCP established" TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 11, 8388608 bytes) After patch : TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 10, 4194304 bytes) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Steinar reported FQ pacing was not working for UDP flows. It looks like the initial sk->sk_pacing_rate value of 0 was a wrong choice. We should init it to ~0U (unlimited) Then, TCA_FQ_FLOW_DEFAULT_RATE should be removed because it makes no real sense. The default rate is really unlimited, and we need to avoid a zero divide.

Unlike ipv4, the struct member hlen holds the length of the GRE and ipv6 headers. This length is also counted in dev->hard_header_len. Perhaps, it's more clean to modify the hlen to count only the GRE header without ipv6 header as the variable name suggest, but the simple way to fix this without regression risk is simply modify the calculation of the limit in ip6gre_tunnel_change_mtu function.

The removal of the routing cache introduced a performance regression for some UDP workloads since a dst lookup must be done for each packet. This change caches the dst per socket in a similar manner to what we do for TCP by implementing early_demux. For UDP multicast we can only cache the dst if there is only one receiving socket on the host. Since caching only works when there is one receiving socket we do the multicast socket lookup using RCU. For UDP unicast we only demux sockets with an exact match in order to not break forwarding setups. Additionally since the hash chains may be long we only check the first socket to see if it is a match and not waste extra time searching the whole chain when we might not find an exact match.

UDP sockets can receive packets from multiple endpoints and thus may be received on multiple receive queues. Since packets packets can arrive on multiple receive queues we should not mark the napi_id for all packets. This makes busy read/poll only work for connected UDP sockets. This additionally enables busy read/poll for UDP multicast packets as long as the socket is connected by moving the check into __udp_queue_rcv_skb().

qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() is called when some packets are dropped on a qdisc, and we want to notify parents of qlen changes. We also can increment parents qdisc qstats drop counters. This permits more accurate drop counters up to root qdisc. For example a graft operation typically resets a qdisc (drops all packets) and call qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() Note that callers are responsible for their drop counters.

If a guest is destroyed without transitioning its frontend to CLOSED, the domain becomes a zombie as netback was not grant unmapping the shared rings. When removing a VIF, transition the backend to CLOSED so the VIF is disconnected if necessary (which will unmap the shared rings etc).

This patch fixes a bug introduced by commit 51151a16 (mlx4: allow order-0 memory allocations in RX path). dma_unmap_page never reached because condition to detect last fragment in page is wrong. offset+frag_stride can't be greater than size, need to make sure no additional frag will fit in page => compare offset + frag_stride + next_frag_size instead. next_frag_size is the same as the current one, since page is shared only with frags of the same size.

Currently, in TLB mode we change mac addresses only by memcpy-ing the to net_device->dev_addr, without actually setting them via dev_set_mac_address(). This permits us to receive all the traffic always on one mac address. However, in case the interface flips, some drivers might enforce the mac filtering for its FW/HW based on current ->dev_addr, and thus we won't be able to receive traffic on that interface, in case it will be selected as active in TLB mode. Fix it by setting the mac address forcefully on every new active slave that we select in TLB mode.

This patch will fix RX packets errors when receiving big size of data by set bit RNC = 1. RNC - Receive Enable Control 0: Upon completion of reception of one frame, the E-DMAC writes the receive status to the descriptor and clears the RR bit in EDRRR to 0. 1: Upon completion of reception of one frame, the E-DMAC writes (writes back) the receive status to the descriptor. In addition, the E-DMAC reads the next descriptor and prepares for reception of the next frame. In addition, for get more stable when receiving packets, I set maximum size for the transmit/receive FIFO and inserts padding in receive data.

David Hauweele noticed that the mrf24j40 would hang arbitrarily after some period of heavy traffic.

The mrf24j40 generates level interrupts.
