[INET]: Move common fields from frag_queues in one place. · 5ab11c98

Pavel Emelyanov authored Oct 15, 2007

Introduce the struct inet_frag_queue in include/net/inet_frag.h
file and place there all the common fields from three structs:

 * struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c
 * struct nf_ct_frag6_queue in nf_conntrack_reasm.c
 * struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c

After this, replace these fields on appropriate structures with
this structure instance and fix the users to use correct names
i.e. hunks like

-    atomic_dec(&fq->refcnt);
+    atomic_dec(&fq->q.refcnt);

(these occupy most of the patch)

[TG3]: Fix performance regression on 5705. · 114342f2

Michael Chan authored Oct 15, 2007

A performance regression was introduced by the following commit:

    commit ee6a99b5
    Author: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com>
    Date:   Wed Jul 18 21:49:10 2007 -0700

    [TG3]: Fix msi issue with kexec/kdump.

In making that change, the PCI latency timer and cache line size
registers were not restored after chip reset.  On the 5705, the
latency timer gets reset to 0 during chip reset and this causes
very poor performance.

Update version to 3.84.

[IPV6]: Uninline netfilter okfns · ad643a79

[IPV4]: Uninline netfilter okfns · 861d0486

Patrick McHardy authored Oct 15, 2007

Now that we don't pass double skb pointers to nf_hook_slow anymore, gcc
can generate tail calls for some of the netfilter hook okfn invocations,
so there is no need to inline the functions anymore. This caused huge
code bloat since we ended up with one inlined version and one out-of-line
version since we pass the address to nf_hook_slow.

Before:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
8997385 1016524  524652 10538561         a0ce41 vmlinux

After:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
8994009 1016524  524652 10535185         a0c111 vmlinux
-------------------------------------------------------
  -3376

All cases have been verified to generate tail-calls with and without
netfilter. The okfns in ipmr and xfrm4_input still remain inline because
gcc can't generate tail-calls for them.

[NET]: Avoid copying TCP packets unnecessarily · a030847e

Herbert Xu authored Oct 15, 2007

TCP packets all have writable heads, that is, even though it's cloned, it is
writable up to the end of the TCP header. This patch makes skb_checksum_help
aware of this fact by using skb_clone_writable and avoiding a copy for TCP.

I've also modified the BUG_ON tests to be unsigned. The only case where this
makes a difference is if csum_start points to a location before skb->data.
Since skb->data should always include the header where the checksum field
is (and all currently callers adhere to that), this change is safe and may
uncover bugs later.

[NET]: Fix csum_start update in pskb_expand_head · 172a863f

Herbert Xu authored Oct 15, 2007

I got confused by the dual nature of the off variable in the
function pskb_expand_head.  The csum_start offset should use
nhead instead of off which can change depending on whether we
are using offsets or pointers.
