This patch contains the following DCA improvements to myri10ge: 1) Finally move myri10ge to use dca3 API 2) Disable PCIe relaxed ordering when enabling DCA on myri10ge. This provides a performance boost on Nehalem based Xeons 3) Make sure to properly initialize NIC's DCA state when it is enabled, rather than giving the NIC a bogus tag (0) and waiting for the first received packet to trigger an update. Not using a real tag can cause hardware exceptions on some motherboards when a CPU socket is empty. 3) Always update the cached CPU when our interrupt affinity changes so as to avoid excessive calls to dca3_get_tag() Signed-off-by:Andrew Gallatin <gallatin@myri.com> Signed-off-by:

There is some confusion with rx_queue name after RPS, and net drivers private rx_queue fields. I suggest to rename "struct net_device"->rx_queue to ingress_queue. Signed-off-by:

As tunnel devices are going to be lockless, we need to make sure a misconfigured machine wont enter an infinite loop. Add a percpu variable, and limit to three the number of stacked xmits. Reported-by:

AnyIP is the capability to receive packets and establish incoming connections on IPs we have not explicitly configured on the machine. An example use case is to configure a machine to accept all incoming traffic on eth0, and leave the policy of whether traffic for a given IP should be delivered to the machine up to the load balancer. Can be setup as follows: ip -6 rule from all iif eth0 lookup 200 ip -6 route add local default dev lo table 200 (in this case for all IPv6 addresses) Signed-off-by:

This patch allows a host to be configured to respond to any address in a specified range as if it were local, without actually needing to configure the address on an interface. This is done through routing table configuration. For instance, to configure a host to respond to any address in 10.1/16 received on eth0 as a local address we can do: ip rule add from all iif eth0 lookup 200 ip route add local 10.1/16 dev lo proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 table 200 This host is now reachable by any 10.1/16 address (route lookup on input for packets received on eth0 can find the route). On output, the rule will not be matched so that this host can still send packets to 10.1/16 (not sent on loopback). Presumably, external routing can be configured to make sense out of this. To make this work, we needed to modify the logic in finding the interface which is assigned a given source address for output (dev_ip_find). We perform a normal fib_lookup instead of just a lookup on the local table, and in the lookup we ignore the input interface for matching. This patch is useful to implement IP-anycast for subnets of virtual addresses. Signed-off-by:

Ben Hutchings authored
For RPS, we create a kobject for each RX queue based on the number of queues passed to alloc_netdev_mq(). However, drivers generally do not determine the numbers of hardware queues to use until much later, so this usually represents the maximum number the driver may use and not the actual number in use. For TX queues, drivers can update the actual number using netif_set_real_num_tx_queues(). Add a corresponding function for RX queues, netif_set_real_num_rx_queues(). Signed-off-by:

sk_attach_filter() and sk_detach_filter() are run with socket locked. Use the appropriate rcu_dereference_protected() instead of blocking BH, and rcu_dereference_bh(). There is no point adding BH prevention and memory barrier. Signed-off-by:

It seems we dont use appropriate refcount increment in an rcu_read_lock() protected section. fib_rule_get() might increment a null refcount and bad things could happen. While fib_nl_delrule() respects an rcu grace period before calling fib_rule_put(), fib_rules_cleanup_ops() calls fib_rule_put() without a grace period. Note : after this patch, we might avoid the synchronize_rcu() call done in fib_nl_delrule() Signed-off-by:
