Resending this patch with few changes. Avoid multiple queues when MSI or MSI-X not available Limit number of Tx queues to 1 if MSI/MSI-X support is not configured in the kernel. This will make number of tx and rx queues equal when MSI/X is not configured thus providing better performance. Signed-off-by:

While trying to remove useless synchronize_rcu() calls, I found l2tp is indeed incorrectly using two of such calls, but also bumps tunnel refcount after list insertion. tunnel refcount must be incremented before being made publically visible by rcu readers. This fix can be applied to 2.6.35+ and might need a backport for older kernels, since things were shuffled in commit fd558d18 (l2tp: Split pppol2tp patch into separate l2tp and ppp parts) Signed-off-by:

Unlike the standard case, disabled anti replay detection needs some nontrivial extra treatment on ESN. RFC 4303 states: Note: If a receiver chooses to not enable anti-replay for an SA, then the receiver SHOULD NOT negotiate ESN in an SA management protocol. Use of ESN creates a need for the receiver to manage the anti-replay window (in order to determine the correct value for the high-order bits of the ESN, which are employed in the ICV computation), which is generally contrary to the notion of disabling anti-replay for an SA. So return an error if an ESN state with disabled anti replay detection is inserted for now and add the extra treatment later if we need it. Signed-off-by:

As it is, we assign the outer modes output function to the dst entry when we create the xfrm bundle. This leads to two problems on interfamily scenarios. We might insert ipv4 packets into ip6_fragment when called from xfrm6_output. The system crashes if we try to fragment an ipv4 packet with ip6_fragment. This issue was introduced with git commit ad0081e4 (ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets as needed). The second issue is, that we might insert ipv4 packets in netfilter6 and vice versa on interfamily scenarios. With this patch we assign the inner mode output function to the dst entry when we create the xfrm bundle. So xfrm4_output/xfrm6_output from the inner mode is used and the right fragmentation and netfilter functions are called. We switch then to outer mode with the output_finish functions. Signed-off-by:

Revises the algorithm governing the sending of link request messages to take into account the number of nodes each bearer is currently in contact with, and to ensure more rapid rediscovery of neighboring nodes if a bearer fails and then recovers. The discovery object now sends requests at least once a second if it is not in contact with any other nodes, and at least once a minute if it has at least one neighbor; if contact with the only neighbor is lost, the object immediately reverts to its initial rapid-fire search timing to accelerate the rediscovery process. In addition, the discovery object now stops issuing link request messages if it is in contact with the only neighboring node it is configured to communicate with, since further searching is unnecessary.

Augments TIPC's discovery object to track the number of neighboring nodes having an active link to the associated bearer. This means tipc_disc_update_link_req() becomes either one of: tipc_disc_add_dest() or: tipc_disc_remove_dest() depending on the code flow direction of things. Signed-off-by: -
Allan Stephens authored
Augments TIPC's discovery object to send its initial neighbor discovery request message as soon as the associated bearer is created, rather than waiting for its first periodic timeout to occur, thereby speeding up the discovery process. Also adds a check to suppress the initial request or subsequent requests if the bearer is blocked at the time the request is scheduled for transmission. Signed-off-by:

Allan Stephens authored
Modifies bearer creation and deletion code to improve handling of scenarios when a neighbor discovery object cannot be created. The creation routine now aborts the creation of a bearer if its discovery object cannot be created, and deletes the newly created bearer, rather than failing quietly and leaving an unusable bearer hanging around. Since the exit via the goto label really isn't a definitive failure in all cases, relabel it appropriately. Signed-off-by:

Rework TIPC's message sending routines to take advantage of the total amount of data value passed to it by the kernel socket infrastructure. This change eliminates the need for TIPC to compute the size of outgoing messages itself, as well as the check for an oversize message in tipc_msg_build(). In addition, this change warrants an explanation: - res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, 0); + res = send_packet(NULL, sock, &my_msg, bytes_to_send); Previously, the final argument to send_packet() was ignored (since the amount of data being sent was recalculated by a lower-level routine) and we could just pass in a dummy value (0). Now that the recalculation is being eliminated, the argument value being passed to send_packet() is significant and we have to supply the actual amount of data we want to send. Signed-off-by:

Adds checks to TIPC's socket send routines to promptly detect and abort attempts to send more than 66,000 bytes in a single TIPC message or more than 2**31-1 bytes in a single TIPC byte stream request. In addition, this ensures that the number of iovecs in a send request does not exceed the limits of a standard integer variable. Signed-off-by:

Enhances existing checks on the discovery domain associated with a TIPC bearer. A bearer can no longer be configured to accept links from itself only (which would be pointless), or to nodes outside its own cluster (since multi-cluster support has now been removed from TIPC). Also, the neighbor discovery routine now validates link setup requests against the configured discovery domain for the bearer, rather than simply ensuring the requesting node belongs to the node's own cluster.

Modifies a TIPC send routine that did not discard the outgoing sk_buff if it was not transmitted because of link congestion; this eliminates the potential for buffer leakage in the many callers who did not clean up the unsent buffer. (The two routines that previously did discard the unsent buffer have been updated to eliminate their now-redundant clean up.) Signed-off-by:

Sets the destination node field of an incoming multicast message to the receiving node's network address before handing off the message to each receiving port. This ensures that, in the event the destination port returns the message to the sender, the sender can identify which node the destination port belonged to. Signed-off-by:

Allan Stephens authored
Set the destination node and destination port fields of an outgoing multicast message header to zero; this is necessary to ensure that the receiving node can route the message properly if it was packed into a bundle due to link congestion. (Previously, there was a chance that the receiving node would send the unbundled message to a random node & port, rather than processing the message itself.) Signed-off-by:

Ensures that all outgoing data messages have the "name lookup scope" field of their header set correctly; that is, named multicast messages now specify cluster-wide name lookup, while messages not using TIPC naming zero out the lookup field. (Previously, the lookup scope specified for these types of messages was inherited from the last message sent by the sending port.) Signed-off-by:

Allan Stephens authored
Modifies the routine that fragments an existing message buffer to use similar logic to that used when generating fragments from an iovec. The routine now creates a complete chain of fragments and adds them to the link transmit queue as a unit, so that the link sends all fragments or none; this prevents the incomplete transmission of a fragmented message that might otherwise result because of link congestion or memory exhaustion. This change also ensures that the counter recording the number of fragmented messages sent by the link is now incremented only if the message is actually sent. Signed-off-by:
