• 2f970d835   [IPV4]: rt_cache_stat can be statically defined ... Browse Code »

  Using __get_cpu_var(obj) is slightly faster than per_cpu_ptr(obj,
  raw_smp_processor_id()).

  1) Smaller code and memory use
  For static and small objects, DEFINE_PER_CPU(type, object) is preferred over a
  alloc_percpu() : Better and smaller code to access them, and no extra memory
  (storing the pointer, and the percpu array of pointers)

  x86_64 code before patch

  mov 1237577(%rip),%rax # ffffffff803e5990
  not %rax # part of per_cpu machinery
  mov %gs:0x3c,%edx # get cpu number
  movslq %edx,%rdx # extend 32 bits cpu number to 64 bits
  mov (%rax,%rdx,8),%rax # get the pointer for this cpu
  incl 0x38(%rax)

  x86_64 code after patch

  mov $per_cpu__rt_cache_stat,%rdx
  mov %gs:0x48,%rax # get percpu data offset
  incl 0x38(%rax,%rdx,1)

  2) False sharing avoidance for SMP :
  For a small NR_CPUS, the array of per cpu pointers allocated in alloc_percpu()
  can be

• 8243126c5   [NET]: Make second arg to skb_reserved() signed. ... Browse Code »

  Some subsystems, such as PPP, can send negative values
  here. It just happened to work correctly on 32-bit with
  an unsigned value, but on 64-bit this explodes.

  Figured out by Paul Mackerras based upon several PPP crash
  reports.

• ec41c7dfd   [TG3]: Refine nvram locking ... Browse Code »

  Add nvram lock count so that calls to tg3_nvram_lock()/unlock() can
  be nested. Add error checking to all callers of tg3_nvram_lock()
  where appropriate. To prevent nvram lock failures after halting the
  firmware, it is also necessary to release firmware's nvram lock in
  tg3_halt_cpu().

  Update version to 3.48.

  Based on David Miller's initial patch.

• dd914b408   [PKT_SCHED] sch_prio: fix qdisc bands init ... Browse Code »

  Currently when PRIO is configured to use N bands, it lets the packets be
  directed to any of the bands 0..N-1. However, PRIO attaches a fifo qdisc
  only to the bands that appear in the priomap; the rest of the N bands
  remain with a noop qdisc attached. This patch changes PRIO's behavior so
  that it attaches a fifo qdisc to all of the N bands.
