This patch makes tun update its socket classid every time we inject a packet into the network stack. This is so that any updates made by the admin to the process writing packets to tun is effected.

Up until now cls_cgroup has relied on fetching the classid out of the current executing thread. This runs into trouble when a packet processing is delayed in which case it may execute out of another thread's context. Furthermore, even when a packet is not delayed we may fail to classify it if soft IRQs have been disabled, because this scenario is indistinguishable from one where a packet unrelated to the current thread is processed by a real soft IRQ. In fact, the current semantics is inherently broken, as a single skb may be constructed out of the writes of two different tasks. A different manifestation of this problem is when the TCP stack transmits in response of an incoming ACK. This is currently unclassified. As we already have a concept of packet ownership for accounting purposes in the skb->sk pointer, this is a natural place to store the classid in a persistent manner. This patch adds the cls_cgroup classid in struct sock, filling up an existing hole on 64-bit :) The value is set at socket creation time. So all sockets created via socket(2) automatically gains the ID of the thread creating it. Whenever another process touches the socket by either reading or writing to it, we will change the socket classid to that of the process if it has a valid (non-zero) classid. For sockets created on inbound connections through accept(2), we inherit the classid of the original listening socket through sk_clone, possibly preceding the actual accept(2) call. In order to minimise risks, I have not made this the authoritative classid. For now it is only used as a backup when we execute with soft IRQs disabled. Once we're completely happy with its semantics we can use it as the sole classid. Footnote: I have rearranged the error path on cls_group module creation. If we didn't do this, then there is a window where someone could create a tc rule using cls_group before the cgroup subsystem has been registered.

the commit: commit d9031024 Author: Octavian Purdila <opurdila@ixiacom.com> Date: Wed Nov 18 02:36:59 2009 +0000 net: device name allocation cleanups introduced a bug when there is a hash collision making impossible to rename a device with eth%d. This bug is very hard to reproduce and appears rarely. The problem is coming from we don't pass a temporary buffer to __dev_alloc_name but 'dev->name' which is modified by the function.

Commit c02db8c6: Author: Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org> Date: Sun May 16 01:05:45 2010 -0700 Subject: rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric adds broken error handling to do_setlink() in net/core/rtnetlink.c. The problem is the following chunk of code: if (tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST]) { struct nlattr *attr; int rem; nla_for_each_nested(attr, tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST], rem) { if (nla_type(attr) != IFLA_VF_INFO) ----> goto errout; err = do_setvfinfo(dev, attr); if (err < 0) goto errout; modified = 1; } } which can get to errout without setting err, resulting in the following error: net/core/rtnetlink.c: In function 'do_setlink': net/core/rtnetlink.c:904: warning: 'err' may be used uninitialized in this function Change the code to return -EINVAL in this case. Note that this might not be the appropriate error though. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> cc: Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org> cc: David S.

Fix some issues introduced in batch skb dequeuing for input_pkt_queue. The primary issue it that the queue head must be incremented only after a packet has been processed, that is only after __netif_receive_skb has been called. This is needed for the mechanism to prevent OOO packet in RFS. Also when flushing the input_pkt_queue and process_queue, the process queue should be done first to prevent OOO packets. Because the input_pkt_queue has been effectively split into two queues, the calculation of the tail ptr is no longer correct. The correct value would be head+input_pkt_queue->len+process_queue->len. To avoid this calculation we added an explict input_queue_tail in softnet_data. The tail value is simply incremented when queuing to input_pkt_queue.

When GRO produces fraglist entries, and the resulting skb hits an interface that is incapable of TSO but capable of FRAGLIST, we end up producing a bogus packet with gso_size non-zero. This was reported in the field with older versions of KVM that did not set the TSO bits on tuntap. This patch fixes that.

This adds support for a new copper device for 82599, device id 0x151c. This 82599 10GBase-T device uses the PHY's internal temperature sensor to guard against over-temp conditions. In this scenario the PHY will be put in a low power mode and link will no longer be able to transmit or receive any data. When this occurs, the over-temp interrupt is latched and driver logs this error message. A HW reset or power cycle is required to clear this status.
