get_random_bytes() is sometimes called with a hard coded size assumption of an integer. This could not be true for next centuries. This patch replace it with a compile time statement. Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

Table size is defined as unsigned, wheres the table maximum size is defined as a signed integer. The calculation of max is 8 or 4, multiplied the table size. Therefore the max value is aligned to unsigned. Signed-off-by: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <hagen@jauu.net> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

The reader/writer lock in ip_tables is acquired in the critical path of processing packets and is one of the reasons just loading iptables can cause a 20% performance loss. The rwlock serves two functions: 1) it prevents changes to table state (xt_replace) while table is in use. This is now handled by doing rcu on the xt_table. When table is replaced, the new table(s) are put in and the old one table(s) are freed after RCU period. 2) it provides synchronization when accesing the counter values. This is now handled by swapping in new table_info entries for each cpu then summing the old values, and putting the result back onto one cpu. On a busy system it may cause sampling to occur at different times on each cpu, but no packet/byte counts are lost in the process. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Sucessfully tested on my dual quad core machine too, but iptables only (no ipv6 here) BTW, my new "tbench 8" result is 2450 MB/s, (it was 2150 MB/s not so long ago) Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

1) physdev_mt() incorrectly assumes nulldevname[] is aligned on an int 2) It also uses word comparisons, while it could use long word ones. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

Suggested by: James King <t.james.king@gmail.com> Similarly to commit c9fd4968, merge TTL and HL. Since HL does not depend on any IPv6-specific function, no new module dependencies would arise. With slight adjustments to the Kconfig help text. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

x86 and powerpc can perform long word accesses in an efficient maner. We can use this to unroll two loops in arp_packet_match(), to perform arithmetic on long words instead of bytes. This is a win on x86_64 for example. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
