17 years ago[IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.
Eric Dumazet [Sat, 15 Sep 2007 17:55:54 +0000 (10:55 -0700)]
[IPV4]: Convert rt_check_expire() from softirq processing to workqueue.

On loaded/big hosts, rt_check_expire() if of litle use, because it
generally breaks out of its main loop because of a jiffies change.

It can take a long time (read : timer invocations) to actually
scan the whole hash table, freeing unused entries.

Converting it to use a workqueue instead of softirq is a nice
move because we can allow rt_check_expire() to do the scan
it is supposed to do, without hogging the CPU.

This has an impact on the average number of entries in cache,
reducing ram usage. Cache is more responsive to parameter
changes (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_timeout and
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/gc_interval)

Note: Maybe the default value of gc_interval (60 seconds)
is too high, since this means we actually need 5 (300/60)
invocations to scan the whole table.

17 years ago[NET]: Fix race when opening a proc file while a network namespace is exiting.

[NET]: Fix race when opening a proc file while a network namespace is exiting.

The problem:  proc_net files remember which network namespace the are
against but do not remember hold a reference count (as that would pin
the network namespace).   So we currently have a small window where
the reference count on a network namespace may be incremented when opening
a /proc file when it has already gone to zero.

To fix this introduce maybe_get_net and get_proc_net.

maybe_get_net increments the network namespace reference count only if it is
greater then zero, ensuring we don't increment a reference count after it
has gone to zero.

get_proc_net handles all of the magic to go from a proc inode to the network
namespace instance and call maybe_get_net on it.

PROC_NET the old accessor is removed so that we don't get confused and use
the wrong helper function.

Then I fix up the callers to use get_proc_net and handle the case case
where get_proc_net returns NULL.  In that case I return -ENXIO because
effectively the network namespace has already gone away so the files
we are trying to access don't exist anymore.

17 years ago[PATCH] NET : convert IP route cache garbage collection from softirq processing to...
Eric Dumazet [Wed, 12 Sep 2007 12:29:01 +0000 (14:29 +0200)]
[PATCH] NET : convert IP route cache garbage collection from softirq processing to a workqueue

When the periodic IP route cache flush is done (every 600 seconds on
default configuration), some hosts suffer a lot and eventually trigger
the "soft lockup" message.

dst_run_gc() is doing a scan of a possibly huge list of dst_entries,
eventually freeing some (less than 1%) of them, while holding the
dst_lock spinlock for the whole scan.

Then it rearms a timer to redo the full thing 1/10 s later...
The slowdown can last one minute or so, depending on how active are
the tcp sessions.

This second version of the patch converts the processing from a softirq
based one to a workqueue.

Even if the list of entries in garbage_list is huge, host is still
responsive to softirqs and can make progress.

Instead of resetting gc timer to 0.1 second if one entry was freed in a
gc run, we do this if more than 10% of entries were freed.

Andi mentioned he did something like this already, but never submitted

The dhcp client application uses AF_PACKET with a packet filter to
receive data. The application doesn't even use timestamps, but because
the AF_PACKET API has timestamps, they get turned on globally which
causes an expensive time of day lookup for every packet received on
any system that uses the standard DHCP client.

The fix is to not enable the timestamp (but use if if available).
This causes the time lookup to only occur on those packets that are
destined for the AF_PACKET socket.  The timestamping occurs after
packet filtering so all packets dropped by filtering to not cause a
clock call.

The one downside of this a a few microseconds additional delay added
from the normal timestamping location (netif_rx) until the receive
callback in AF_PACKET. But since the offset is fairly consistent it

17 years ago[MAC80211]: rework key handling
Johannes Berg [Tue, 28 Aug 2007 21:01:55 +0000 (17:01 -0400)]
[MAC80211]: rework key handling

This moves all the key handling code out from ieee80211_ioctl.c
into key.c and also does the following changes including documentation
updates in mac80211.h:

 1) Turn off hardware acceleration for keys when the interface
    is down. This is necessary because otherwise monitor
    interfaces could be decrypting frames for other interfaces
    that are down at the moment. Also, it should go some way
    towards better suspend/resume support, in any case the
    routines used here could be used for that as well.
    Additionally, this makes the driver interface nicer, keys
    for a specific local MAC address are only ever present
    while an interface with that MAC address is enabled.

 2) Change driver set_key() callback interface to allow only
    return values of -ENOSPC, -EOPNOTSUPP and 0, warn on all
    other return values. This allows debugging the stack when
    a driver notices it's handed a key while it is down.

 3) Invert the flag meaning to KEY_FLAG_UPLOADED_TO_HARDWARE.

 4) Remove REMOVE_ALL_KEYS command as it isn't used nor do we
    want to use it, we'll use DISABLE_KEY for each key. It is
    hard to use REMOVE_ALL_KEYS because we can handle multiple
    virtual interfaces with different key configuration, so we'd
    have to keep track of a lot of state for this and that isn't
    worth it.

 5) Warn when disabling a key fails, it musn't.

 6) Remove IEEE80211_HW_NO_TKIP_WMM_HWACCEL in favour of per-key
    IEEE80211_KEY_FLAG_WMM_STA to let driver sort it out itself.

 7) Tell driver that a (non-WEP) key is used only for transmission
    by using an all-zeroes station MAC address when configuring.

 8) Change the set_key() callback to have access to the local MAC
    address the key is being added for.

[MAC80211]: embed key conf in key, fix driver interface

This patch embeds the struct ieee80211_key_conf into struct ieee80211_key
and thus avoids allocations and having data present twice.

This required some more changes:
 1) The removal of the IEEE80211_KEY_DEFAULT_TX_KEY key flag.
    This flag isn't used by drivers nor should it be since
    we have a set_key_idx() callback. Maybe that callback needs
    to be extended to include the key conf, but only a driver that
    requires it will tell.
 2) The removal of the IEEE80211_KEY_DEFAULT_WEP_ONLY key flag.
    This flag is global, so it shouldn't be passed in the key
    conf structure. Pass it to the function instead.

Also, this patch removes the AID parameter to the set_key() callback
because it is currently unused and the hardware currently cannot know
about the AID anyway. I suspect this was used with some hardware that
actually selected the AID itself, but that functionality was removed.

Additionally, I've removed the ALG_NULL key algorithm since we have
ALG_NONE.

[MAC80211]: avoid copying packets to interfaces that are down

David Woodhouse noticed that under some circumstances the number of slab
allocations kept growing. After looking a bit, this seemed to happen
when you had a management mode interface that was *down*.

The reason for this is that when the device is down, all management
frames get queued to the in-kernel MLME (via ieee80211_sta_rx_mgmt) but
then the sta work is invoked but doesn't run when the netif is down.
When you then bring the interface up, all such frames are freed, but if
you change the mode all of them are lost because the skb queue is
reinitialised as soon as you go back to managed mode. The skb queue is
correctly cleared when the interface is brought down, but the code
doesn't account for the fact that it may be filled while it is not up.

This patch should fix the issue by simply ignoring all interfaces that
are down when going through the RX handlers.

[IrDA]: Kingsun Dazzle IrDA USB driver

This dongle does not follow the usb-irda specification, so it needs its own
special driver. Just like the Kingsun/Donshine dongle, it exposes two
interrupt endpoints. Reception is performed through direct reads from the
input endpoint. Transmission requires splitting the IrDA frames into 8-byte
segments, in which the first byte encodes how many of the remaining 7 bytes
are used as data. Speed change is made with a control URB just like the one
in cypress_m8, and it seems to support up to 115200 bps.

On plugin, this dongle reports vendor and device IDs: 0x07d0:0x4100

Alternatively we'd have another way to change net/ipv4/route.c
(__mkroute_input) to use RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag unless skbuff
has no secpath. It is better than this patch at performance

routing slow-path. However, it should be taken care of resource
changes between SAD(XFRM states) and routing table. In other words,
When IPv4 SAD is changed does the related routing entry go to its
slow-path? If not, it is reasonable to apply this patch.
