fib_lookup() converted to be called in RCU protected context, no reference taken and released on a contended cache line (fib_clntref) fib_table_lookup() and fib_semantic_match() get an additional parameter. struct fib_info gets an rcu_head field, and is freed after an rcu grace period.

Flavio Leitner authored
The IGMP specs states that if the system receives a membership report, it shouldn't send another for the next minute. However, if a link failure happens right after that, the backup slave and the switch connected to this slave will not know about the multicast and the traffic will hang for about a minute. This patch fixes it to rejoin multicast groups immediately after a failover restoring the multicast traffic. Signed-off-by:

Flavio Leitner authored
During a failover, the IGMP membership is sent to update the switch restoring the traffic, but it misses groups added to VLAN devices running on top of bonding devices. This patch changes it to iterate over all VLAN devices on top of it sending IGMP memberships too. Signed-off-by:

David This is the first step for RCU conversion of neigh code. Next patches will convert hash_buckets[] and "struct neighbour" to RCU protected objects. Thanks [PATCH net-next] net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table Instead of storing hash_buckets, hash_mask and hash_rnd in "struct neigh_table", a new structure is defined : struct neigh_hash_table { struct neighbour **hash_buckets; unsigned int hash_mask; __u32 hash_rnd; struct rcu_head rcu; }; And "struct neigh_table" has an RCU protected pointer to such a neigh_hash_table. This means the signature of (*hash)() function changed: We need to add a third parameter with the actual hash_rnd value, since this is not anymore a neigh_table field. Signed-off-by: -

In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we drop it before it enters protocol stack : - softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat) - bad vlan tag (not accounted) - unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted) We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level, and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev) This is a generalization of commit 8990f468 (net: rx_dropped accounting), thus reverting it.

rtnl_dereference() is used in contexts where RTNL is held, to fetch an RCU protected pointer. Updates to this pointer are prevented by RTNL, so we dont need smp_read_barrier_depends() and the ACCESS_ONCE() provided in rcu_dereference_check(). rtnl_dereference() is mainly a macro to document the locking invariant.

While doing stress tests with IP route cache disabled, and multi queue devices, I noticed a very high contention on one rwlock used in neighbour code. When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test()) But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock. Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not inserted in route cache. With the stress test bench, sending 160000000 frames on one neighbour, results are : Before patch: real 2m28.406s user 0m11.781s sys 36m17.964s After patch: real 1m26.532s user 0m12.185s sys 20m3.903s Signed-off-by:

This code does not call deinit_card(card); in an error case, as done in other error-handling code in the same function. But actually, the called function init_sram can only return 0, so there is no need for the error check at all. init_sram is also given a void return type, and its single return statement at the end of the function is dropped. A simplified version of the sematic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r exists@ @r@ statement S1,S2,S3; constant C1,C2,C3; @@ *if (...) {...
