      ipv6: make unsolicited report intervals configurable for mld · fc4eba58
      Hannes Frederic Sowa authored 
      Commit cab70040 ("net: igmp:
Reduce Unsolicited report interval to 1s when using IGMPv3") and
2690048c ("net: igmp: Allow user-space
configuration of igmp unsolicited report interval") by William Manley made
igmp unsolicited report intervals configurable per interface and corrected
the interval of unsolicited igmpv3 report messages resendings to 1s.

Same needs to be done for IPv6:

MLDv1 (RFC2710 7.10.): 10 seconds
MLDv2 (RFC3810 9.11.): 1 second

Both intervals are configurable via new procfs knobs
mldv1_unsolicited_report_interval and mldv2_unsolicited_report_interval.

(also added .force_mld_version to ipv6_devconf_dflt to bring structs in
line without semantic changes)

v2:
a) Joined documentation update for IPv4 and IPv6 MLD/IGMP
   unsolicited_report_interval procfs knobs.
b) incorporate stylistic feedback from William Manley

v3:
a) add new DEVCONF_* values to the end of the enum (thanks to David
   Miller)

      tcp: reset reordering est. selectively on timeout · 74c181d5
      Yuchung Cheng authored 
      On timeout the TCP sender unconditionally resets the estimated degree
of network reordering (tp->reordering). The idea behind this is that
the estimate is too large to trigger fast recovery (e.g., due to a IP
path change).

But for example if the sender only had 2 packets outstanding, then a
timeout doesn't tell much about reordering. A sender that learns about
reordering on big writes and loses packets on small writes will end up
falsely retransmitting again and again, especially when reordering is
more likely on big writes.

Therefore the sender should only suspect that tp->reordering is too
high if it could have gone into fast recovery with the (lower) default
estimate.

====================
This is a batch of updates intended for 3.12.  It is mostly driver
stuff, although Johannes Berg and Simon Wunderlich make a good
showing with mac80211 bits (particularly some work on 5/10 MHz
channel support).

The usual suspects are mostly represented.  There are lots of updates
to iwlwifi, ath9k, ath10k, mwifiex, rt2x00, wil6210, as usual.
The bcma bus gets some love this time, as do cw1200, iwl4965, and a
few other bits here and there.  I don't think there is much unusual
here, FWIW.

      gianfar: Add flow control support · 23402bdd
      Claudiu Manoil authored 
      eTSEC has Rx and Tx flow control capabilities that may be enabled
through MACCFG1[Rx_Flow, Tx_Flow] bits.  These bits must not be set
however when eTSEC is operated in Half-Duplex mode.  Unfortunately,
the driver currently sets these bits unconditionally.
This patch adds the proper handling of the PAUSE frame capability
register bits by implementing the ethtool -A interface.  When pause
autoneg is enabled, the controller uses the phy's capability to
negotiate PAUSE frame settings with the link partner and reconfigures
its Rx_Flow and Tx_Flow settings to match the capabilities of the
link partner.  If pause autoneg is off, the PAUSE frame generation
may be forced manually (ethtool -A).  Flow control is disabled by
default now.
This implementation is inspired by the tg3 driver.

      pptp: fix byte order warnings · ebd8b934
      stephen hemminger authored 
      Pptp driver has lots of byte order warnings from sparse.
This was because the on-the-wire header is in network byte order (obviously)
but the definition did not reflect that.

Also, the address structure to user space actually put the call id
in host order. Rather than break ABI compatibility, just acknowledge
the existing design.

The approach taken here is to split data and control chunks
creation a  bit.  Data chunks already have memory accounting
so noting needs to happen.  For control chunks, add stubs handlers.

      net: attempt high order allocations in sock_alloc_send_pskb() · 28d64271
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      Adding paged frags skbs to af_unix sockets introduced a performance
regression on large sends because of additional page allocations, even
if each skb could carry at least 100% more payload than before.

We can instruct sock_alloc_send_pskb() to attempt high order
allocations.

Most of the time, it does a single page allocation instead of 8.

I added an additional parameter to sock_alloc_send_pskb() to
let other users to opt-in for this new feature on followup patches.

Tested:

Before patch :

$ netperf -t STREAM_STREAM
STREAM STREAM TEST
Recv   Send    Send
Socket Socket  Message  Elapsed
Size   Size    Size     Time     Throughput
bytes  bytes   bytes    secs.    10^6bits/sec

 2304  212992  212992    10.00    46861.15

After patch :

$ netperf -t STREAM_STREAM
STREAM STREAM TEST
Recv   Send    Send
Socket Socket  Message  Elapsed
Size   Size    Size     Time     Throughput
bytes  bytes   bytes    secs.    10^6bits/sec

      af_unix: improve STREAM behavior with fragmented memory · e370a723
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      unix_stream_sendmsg() currently uses order-2 allocations,
and we had numerous reports this can fail.

The __GFP_REPEAT flag present in sock_alloc_send_pskb() is
not helping.

This patch extends the work done in commit eb6a2481
("af_unix: reduce high order page allocations) for
datagram sockets.

This opens the possibility of zero copy IO (splice() and
friends)

The trick is to not use skb_pull() anymore in recvmsg() path,
and instead add a @consumed field in UNIXCB() to track amount
of already read payload in the skb.

There is a performance regression for large sends
because of extra page allocations that will be addressed
in a follow-up patch, allowing sock_alloc_send_pskb()
to attempt high order page allocations.
