  • 04ed3e741   net: change netdev->features to u32 ... Browse Code »

    Quoting Ben Hutchings: we presumably won't be defining features that
    can only be enabled on 64-bit architectures.

    Occurences found by `grep -r` on net/, drivers/net, include/

    [ Move features and vlan_features next to each other in
    struct netdev, as per Eric Dumazet's suggestion -DaveM ]

  • 13f18aa05   net: drop capability from protocol definitions ... Browse Code »

    struct can_proto had a capability field which wasn't ever used. It is
    dropped entirely.

    struct inet_protosw had a capability field which can be more clearly
    expressed in the code by just checking if sock->type = SOCK_RAW.

  • 787e92083   ipv6: Add GRO support ... Browse Code »

    This patch adds GRO support for IPv6. IPv6 GRO supports extension
    headers in the same way as GSO (by using the same infrastructure).
    It's also simpler compared to IPv4 since we no longer have to worry
    about fragmentation attributes or header checksums.

  • 73cc19f15   ipv4: Add GRO infrastructure ... Browse Code »

    This patch adds GRO support for IPv4.

    The criteria for merging is more stringent than LRO, in particular,
    we require all fields in the IP header to be identical except for
    the length, ID and checksum. In addition, the ID must form an
    arithmetic sequence with a difference of one.

    The ID requirement might seem overly strict, however, most hardware
    TSO solutions already obey this rule. Linux itself also obeys this
    whether GSO is in use or not.

    In future we could relax this rule by storing the IDs (or rather
    making sure that we don't drop them when pulling the aggregate
    skb's tail).

    So that we can kill that hole, protocol can only go all the way to 255 (RAW).

  • a430a43d0   [NET] gso: Fix up GSO packets with broken checksums ... Browse Code »

    Certain subsystems in the stack (e.g., netfilter) can break the partial
    checksum on GSO packets. Until they're fixed, this patch allows this to
    work by recomputing the partial checksums through the GSO mechanism.

    Once they've all been converted to update the partial checksum instead of
    clearing it, this workaround can be removed.

  • 576a30eb6   [NET]: Added GSO header verification ... Browse Code »

    When GSO packets come from an untrusted source (e.g., a Xen guest domain),
    we need to verify the header integrity before passing it to the hardware.

    Since the first step in GSO is to verify the header, we can reuse that
    code by adding a new bit to gso_type: SKB_GSO_DODGY. Packets with this
    bit set can only be fed directly to devices with the corresponding bit
    NETIF_F_GSO_ROBUST. If the device doesn't have that bit, then the skb
    is fed to the GSO engine which will allow the packet to be sent to the
    hardware if it passes the header check.

    This patch changes the sg flag to a full features flag. The same method
    can be used to implement TSO ECN support. We simply have to mark packets
    with CWR set with SKB_GSO_ECN so that only hardware with a corresponding
    NETIF_F_TSO_ECN can accept them. The GSO engine can either fully segment
    the packet, or segment the first MTU and pass the rest to the hardware for
    further segmentation.

  • 951dbc8ac   [IPV6]: Move nextheader offset to the IP6CB ... Browse Code »

    Move nextheader offset to the IP6CB to make it possible to pass a
    packet to ip6_input_finish multiple times and have it skip already
    parsed headers. As a nice side effect this gets rid of the manual
    hopopts skipping in ip6_input_finish.

  • 90ddc4f04   [NET]: move struct proto_ops to const ... Browse Code »

    I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
    a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
    linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
    least)

    This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
    so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

    This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
    if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

    I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
    them const.

    This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
    speedup some socket system calls.

  • d83d8461f   [IP_SOCKGLUE]: Remove most of the tcp specific calls ... Browse Code »

    As DCCP needs to be called in the same spots.

    Now we have a member in inet_sock (is_icsk), set at sock creation time from
    struct inet_protosw->flags (if INET_PROTOSW_ICSK is set, like for TCP and
    DCCP) to see if a struct sock instance is a inet_connection_sock for places
    like the ones in ip_sockglue.c (v4 and v6) where we previously were looking if
    sk_type was SOCK_STREAM, that is insufficient because we now use the same code
    for DCCP, that has sk_type SOCK_DCCP.

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
