2010-10-28dccp: Refine the wait-for-ccid mechanismGerrit Renker4-54/+89
This extends the existing wait-for-ccid routine so that it may be used with different types of CCID, addressing the following problems: 1) The queue-drain mechanism only works with rate-based CCIDs. If CCID-2 for example has a full TX queue and becomes network-limited just as the application wants to close, then waiting for CCID-2 to become unblocked could lead to an indefinite delay (i.e., application "hangs"). 2) Since each TX CCID in turn uses a feedback mechanism, there may be changes in its sending policy while the queue is being drained. This can lead to further delays during which the application will not be able to terminate. 3) The minimum wait time for CCID-3/4 can be expected to be the queue length times the current inter-packet delay. For example if tx_qlen=100 and a delay of 15 ms is used for each packet, then the application would have to wait for a minimum of 1.5 seconds before being allowed to exit. 4) There is no way for the user/application to control this behaviour. It would be good to use the timeout argument of dccp_close() as an upper bound. Then the maximum time that an application is willing to wait for its CCIDs to can be set via the SO_LINGER option. These problems are addressed by giving the CCID a grace period of up to the `timeout' value. The wait-for-ccid function is, as before, used when the application (a) has read all the data in its receive buffer and (b) if SO_LINGER was set with a non-zero linger time, or (c) the socket is either in the OPEN (active close) or in the PASSIVE_CLOSEREQ state (client application closes after receiving CloseReq). In addition, there is a catch-all case of __skb_queue_purge() after waiting for the CCID. This is necessary since the write queue may still have data when (a) the host has been passively-closed, (b) abnormal termination (unread data, zero linger time), (c) wait-for-ccid could not finish within the given time limit.

2010-10-28dccp: Extend CCID packet dequeueing interfaceGerrit Renker3-58/+89
This extends the packet dequeuing interface of dccp_write_xmit() to allow 1. CCIDs to take care of timing when the next packet may be sent; 2. delayed sending (as before, with an inter-packet gap up to 65.535 seconds). The main purpose is to take CCID-2 out of its polling mode (when it is network- limited, it tries every millisecond to send, without interruption). The mode of operation for (2) is as follows: * new packet is enqueued via dccp_sendmsg() => dccp_write_xmit(), * ccid_hc_tx_send_packet() detects that it may not send (e.g. window full), * it signals this condition via `CCID_PACKET_WILL_DEQUEUE_LATER', * dccp_write_xmit() returns without further action; * after some time the wait-condition for CCID becomes true, * that CCID schedules the tasklet, * tasklet function calls ccid_hc_tx_send_packet() via dccp_write_xmit(), * since the wait-condition is now true, ccid_hc_tx_packet() returns "send now", * packet is sent, and possibly more (since dccp_write_xmit() loops). Code reuse: the taskled function calls dccp_write_xmit(), the timer function reduces to a wrapper around the same code. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-10-28dccp: Return-value convention of hc_tx_send_packet()Gerrit Renker2-9/+37
This patch reorganises the return value convention of the CCID TX sending function, to permit more flexible schemes, as required by subsequent patches. Currently the convention is * values < 0 mean error, * a value == 0 means "send now", and * a value x > 0 means "send in x milliseconds". The patch provides symbolic constants and a function to interpret return values. In addition, it caps the maximum positive return value to 0xFFFF milliseconds, corresponding to 65.535 seconds. This is possible since in CCID-3/4 the maximum possible inter-packet gap is fixed at t_mbi = 64 sec. Signed-off-by: Gerrit Renker <gerrit@erg.abdn.ac.uk> Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-10-28ixgbe: DCB, fix TX hang occurring in stress condition with PFCJohn Fastabend5-10/+54
The DCB credits refill quantum _must_ be greater than half the max packet size. This is needed to guarantee that TX DMA operations are not attempted during a pause state. Additionally, the min IFG must be set correctly for DCB mode. If a DMA operation is requested unexpectedly during the pause state the HW data store may be corrupted leading to a DMA hang. The DMA hang requires a reset to correct. This fixes the HW configuration to avoid this condition.

2010-10-27ehea: Fixing statisticsBreno Leitao2-6/+28
(Applied over Eric's "ehea: fix use after free" patch) Currently ehea stats are broken. The bytes counters are got from the hardware, while the packets counters are got from the device driver. Also, the device driver counters are resetted during the the down process, and the hardware aren't, causing some weird numbers. This patch just consolidates the packets and bytes on the device driver.

2010-10-27tunnels: Fix tunnels change rcu protectionPavel Emelyanov4-0/+4
After making rcu protection for tunnels (ipip, gre, sit and ip6) a bug was introduced into the SIOCCHGTUNNEL code. The tunnel is first unlinked, then addresses change, then it is linked back probably into another bucket. But while changing the parms, the hash table is unlocked to readers and they can lookup the improper tunnel. Respective commits are b7285b79 (ipip: get rid of ipip_lock), 1507850b (gre: get rid of ipgre_lock), 3a43be3c (sit: get rid of ipip6_lock) and 94767632 (ip6tnl: get rid of ip6_tnl_lock). The quick fix is to wait for quiescent state to pass after unlinking, but if it is inappropriate I can invent something better, just let me know.
