The br2684 does not check if used vcc is in connected state, causing potential Oops in pppoatm_send() when vcc->send() is called on not fully connected socket.

2012-12-02br2684: don't send frames on not-ready vccDavid Woodhouse1-3/+40
Avoid submitting packets to a vcc which is being closed. Things go badly wrong when the ->pop method gets later called after everything's been torn down. Use the ATM socket lock for synchronisation with vcc_destroy_socket(), which clears the ATM_VF_READY bit under the same lock. Otherwise, we could end up submitting a packet to the device driver even after its ->ops->close method has been called. And it could call the vcc's ->pop method after the protocol has been shut down. Which leads to a panic. Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <David.Woodhouse@intel.com> Acked-by: Krzysztof Mazur <krzysiek@podlesie.net>
2012-11-26atm: br2684: Fix excessive queue bloatDavid Woodhouse1-14/+22
There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight, and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it. If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't think it's likely to be necessary. cf. commit 9d02daf754238adac48fa075ee79e7edd3d79ed3 (pppoatm: Fix excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM. Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()... and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero. An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way... Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication while we're at it. Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact). Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8, which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.hTejun Heo1-0/+1
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2008-11-12netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-4Wang Chen1-1/+1
We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv: 1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv(). 2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv. But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it directly. This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev). Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read. But it is too big to be sent in one mail. I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes, which is max size allowed by vger.
