NULL ptr can be returned from tcp_write_queue_head to cached_skb and then assigned to skb if packets_out was zero. Without this, system is vulnerable to a carefully crafted ACKs which obviously is remotely triggerable. Besides, there's very little that needs to be done in sacktag if there weren't any packets outstanding, just skipping the rest doesn't hurt.

We round up the header size in sk_stream_alloc_pskb so that TSO packets get zero tail room. Unfortunately this rounding up is not coordinated with the select_size() function used by TCP to calculate the second parameter of sk_stream_alloc_pskb. As a result, we may allocate more than a page of data in the non-TSO case when exactly one page is desired. In fact, rounding up the head room is detrimental in the non-TSO case because it makes memory that would otherwise be available to the payload head room. TSO doesn't need this either, all it wants is the guarantee that there is no tail room. So this patch fixes this by adjusting the skb_reserve call so that exactly the requested amount (which all callers have calculated in a precise way) is made available as tail room.

All 32 bits machines but i386 dont have CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR. On these machines, ktime.tv64 is more than 4 times the (correct) result given by ktime_to_ns() Again on these machines, using ktime_get_real().tv64 >> 6 give a 32bits rollover every 64 seconds, which is not wanted (less than the 120 s MSL) Using ktime_to_ns() is the portable way to get nsecs from a ktime, and have correct code.

It might be possible that, in some extreme scenario that I just cannot now construct in my mind, end_seq <= frto_highmark check does not match causing the lost_out and LOST bits become out-of-sync due to clearing and recounting in the loop.

Otherwise TCP might violate packet ordering principles that FRTO is based on. If conventional recovery path is chosen, this won't be significant at all. In practice, any small enough value will be sufficient to provide proper operation for FRTO, yet other users of snd_cwnd might benefit from a "close enough" value. FRTO's formula is now equal to what tcp_enter_cwr() uses. FRTO used to check application limitedness a bit differently but I changed that in commit 575ee714 and as a result checking for application limitedness became completely non-existing.

The only qdiscs that check subqueue state before dequeue'ing are PRIO and RR. The other qdiscs, including the default pfifo_fast qdisc, will allow traffic bound for subqueue 0 through to hard_start_xmit. The check for netif_queue_stopped() is done above in pkt_sched.h, so it is unnecessary for qdisc_restart(). However, if the underlying driver is multiqueue capable, and only sets queue states on subqueues, this will allow packets to enter the driver when it's currently unable to process packets, resulting in expensive requeues and driver entries. This patch re-adds the check for the subqueue status before calling hard_start_xmit, so we can try and avoid the driver entry when the queues are stopped.

This reverts commit 7c9e69fa, fixing up conflicts in fs/ext4/balloc.c manually. The cost of doing the bitmap validation on each lookup - even when the bitmap is cached - is absolutely prohibitive. We could, and probably should, do it only when adding the bitmap to the buffer cache. However, right now we are better off just reverting it. Peter Zijlstra measured the cost of this extra validation as a 85% decrease in cached iozone, and while I had a patch that took it down to just 17% by not being _quite_ so stupid in the validation, it was still a big slowdown that could have been avoided by just doing it right.

If CONFIG_NET_NS is not set, the only namespace is possible. This patch removes list of pernet_operations and cleanups code a bit. This list is not needed if there are no namespaces. We should just call ->init method. Additionally, the ->exit will be called on module unloading only. This case is safe - the code is not discarded. For the in/kernel code, ->exit should never be called. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The patch "KVM: fix !SMP build error" change the way smp_call_function() actually uses the passed in function names on non-SMP builds. So previously it was never caught that the function passed in was never actually defined. This causes a build error on ppc64_defconfig + CONFIG_SMP=n: arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c: In function 'pgtable_free_now': arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: 'pte_free_smp_sync' undeclared (first use in this function) arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: for each function it appears in.) So we need to define it even if CONFIG_SMP is off. Either that or ifdef out the smp_call_function() call, but that's ugly.

The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the reservation, as recommended by the architecture. However, some processors can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation is already held to a different address B. To avoid this problem, the dummy stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address. This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate which cpus are affected. Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc. Signed-off-by: Becky Bruce <becky.bruce@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
