As found in the past (commit f1dd9c379c
[NET]: Fix tbench regression in 2.6.25-rc1), it is really
important that struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on a cache line.
We cannot use __atribute((aligned)), so manually pad the structure
for 32 and 64 bit arches.
for 32bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0x80
for 64bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0xc0
As it is not possible to guess at compile time cache line size,
we use a generic value of 64 bytes, that satisfies many current arches.
(Using 128 bytes alignment on 64bit arches would waste 64 bytes)
Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch future updates to "struct dst_entry" dont
break this alignment.
"tbench 8" is 4.4 % faster on a dual quad core (HP BL460c G1), Intel E5450 @3.00GHz
(2350 MB/s instead of 2250 MB/s)

RCU was added to UDP lookups, using a fast infrastructure :
- sockets kmem_cache use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and dont pay the
price of call_rcu() at freeing time.
- hlist_nulls permits to use few memory barriers.
This patch uses same infrastructure for TCP/DCCP established
and timewait sockets.
Thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, no slowdown for applications
using short lived TCP connections. A followup patch, converting
rwlocks to spinlocks will even speedup this case.
__inet_lookup_established() is pretty fast now we dont have to
dirty a contended cache line (read_lock/read_unlock)
Only established and timewait hashtable are converted to RCU
(bind table and listen table are still using traditional locking)

This is a straightforward patch, using hlist_nulls infrastructure.
RCUification already done on UDP two weeks ago.
Using hlist_nulls permits us to avoid some memory barriers, both
at lookup time and delete time.
Patch is large because it adds new macros to include/net/sock.h.
These macros will be used by TCP & DCCP in next patch.

hlist uses NULL value to finish a chain.
hlist_nulls variant use the low order bit set to 1 to signal an end-of-list marker.
This allows to store many different end markers, so that some RCU lockless
algos (used in TCP/UDP stack for example) can save some memory barriers in
fast paths.
Two new files are added :
include/linux/list_nulls.h
- mimics hlist part of include/linux/list.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant
include/linux/rculist_nulls.h
- mimics hlist part of include/linux/rculist.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant
Only four helpers are declared for the moment :
hlist_nulls_del_init_rcu(), hlist_nulls_del_rcu(),
hlist_nulls_add_head_rcu() and hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu()
prefetches() were removed, since an end of list is not anymore NULL value.
prefetches() could trigger useless (and possibly dangerous) memory transactions.
Example of use (extracted from __udp4_lib_lookup())
struct sock *sk, *result;
struct hlist_nulls_node *node;
unsigned short hnum = ntohs(dport);
unsigned int hash = udp_hashfn(net, hnum);
struct udp_hslot *hslot = &udptable->hash[hash];
int score, badness;
rcu_read_lock();
begin:
result = NULL;
badness = -1;
sk_nulls_for_each_rcu(sk, node, &hslot->head) {
score = compute_score(sk, net, saddr, hnum, sport,
daddr, dport, dif);
if (score > badness) {
result = sk;
badness = score;
}
}
/*
* if the nulls value we got at the end of this lookup is
* not the expected one, we must restart lookup.
* We probably met an item that was moved to another chain.
*/
if (get_nulls_value(node) != hash)
goto begin;
if (result) {
if (unlikely(!atomic_inc_not_zero(&result->sk_refcnt)))
result = NULL;
else if (unlikely(compute_score(result, net, saddr, hnum, sport,
daddr, dport, dif) < badness)) {
sock_put(result);
goto begin;
}
}
rcu_read_unlock();

In case UDP traffic is redirected to a local UDP socket,
the originally addressed destination address/port
cannot be recovered with the in-kernel tproxy.
This patch adds an IP_RECVORIGDSTADDR sockopt that enables
a IP_ORIGDSTADDR ancillary message in recvmsg(). This
ancillary message contains the original destination address/port
of the packet being received.

The attached patch makes it work much better for me. The patch
will cause the code to NOT create a stale neighbor entry if we
are not going to respond to the ARP request. The old code
*would* create a stale entry even if we are not going to respond.

Use a similar approach to the SMB session sharing. Add a list of tcons
attached to each SMB session. Move the refcount to non-atomic. Protect
all of the above with the cifs_tcp_ses_lock. Add functions to
properly find and put references to the tcons.

If the driver fails to initialize the first time due to the failure in the
phy_id check the kernel triggers a warn_on on the second try to load the
driver because the driver did not free the msi/x resources in the first

- use gpio_request() and gpio_free()
- place irq[] array in struct mdio_gpio_info
- add module description, author and license
- add note about compiling this driver as module
- rename mdc and mdio function (were ugly names)
- change MII to MDIO in bus name
- add __init __exit to module (un)loading functions
- probe fails if no phys added to the bus
- kzalloc bitbang with sizeof(*bitbang)
Changes since v3:
- keep bus naming "%x" to be compatible with existing drivers.
Changes since v2:
- more #ifdefs reduction
- platform driver will be registered on OF platforms also
- unified platform and OF bus_id to phy%i
Changes since v1:
- removed NO_IRQ
- reduced #idefs
Laurent, please test this driver under OF.

[ It isn't ever really used uninitialized, since no caller should ever
call this function with an empty range. But the compiler is correct
that from a local analysis standpoint that is impossible to see, and
fixing the warning is appropriate. ]

which incorrectly returned zero on succesful sends rather than the
number of transmitted bytes, an error which was then propagated into the

Commit 0794469da3: ("ACPI: struct device -

So if ldev->bus was NULL, we'd oops.

by doing pci_map_single(..., PCI_DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL)

Changing the DMA direction, especially with dmabounce will result
in unexpected behaviour.
