Revert "select: use freezable blocking call"

2013-10-30T14:28:35+00:00

This reverts commit 9745cdb36da8 (select: use freezable blocking call)
that triggers problems during resume from suspend to RAM on Paul Bolle's
32-bit x86 machines.  Paul says:

  Ever since I tried running (release candidates of) v3.11 on the two
  working i686s I still have lying around I ran into issues on resuming
  from suspend. Reverting 9745cdb36da8 (select: use freezable blocking
  call) resolves those issues.

  Resuming from suspend on i686 on (release candidates of) v3.11 and
  later triggers issues like:

  traps: systemd[1] general protection ip:b738e490 sp:bf882fc0 error:0 in libc-2.16.so[b731c000+1b0000]

  and

  traps: rtkit-daemon[552] general protection ip:804d6e5 sp:b6cb32f0 error:0 in rtkit-daemon[8048000+d000]

  Once I hit the systemd error I can only get out of the mess that the
  system is at that point by power cycling it.

Since we are reverting another freezer-related change causing similar
problems to happen, this one should be reverted as well.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next

2013-07-10T01:24:39+00:00

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
trickeled in.

Highlights:

1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network
device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

From Eliezer Tamir.

2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
addresses. Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
Eric Dumazet.

3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
Pavel Emelyanov.

5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
Rony Efraim.

6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
from Cong Wang.

9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport. In particular,
support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code. From Daniel
Borkmann.

11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
devices. From Nicolas Dichtel.

12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
From Daniel Borkmann.

13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
from Johannes Berg.

14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
by using an rbtree. From Eric Dumazet.

15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
Cheng.

16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
Horman.

17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
pointer that's passed into them. Use this to properly handle
network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event(). From Jiri
Pirko and Timo Teräs.

18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
Huewe.

19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
O(1) calculation instead. From Eric Dumazet.

20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
like ipv4. From Nicolas Dichtel.

21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding. From
Willem de Bruijn.

23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
Dumazet.

24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead. Also
from Eric Dumazet.

25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
from Vlad Yasevich.

26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets. From Lorenzo Colitti.

27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
too, from David Majnemer.

28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.

29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
upd_v6_push_pending_frames(). From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

30) Fix L2TP sequence number handling bugs, from James Chapman."

net/fs: change busy poll time accounting

2013-07-09T19:33:04+00:00

Suggested by Linus:
Changed time accounting for busy-poll:
- Make it microsecond based.
- Use unsigned longs.
- Revert back to use time_after instead of time_in_range.
Reorder poll/select busy loop conditions:
- Clear busy_flag after one time we can't busy-poll.
- Only init busy_end if we actually are going to busy-poll.
Added one more missing need_resched() test.

net: rename low latency sockets functions to busy poll

2013-07-09T02:25:45+00:00

Rename functions in include/net/ll_poll.h to busy wait.
Clarify documentation about expected power use increase.
Rename POLL_LL to POLL_BUSY_LOOP.
Add need_resched() testing to poll/select busy loops.

Note, that in select and poll can_busy_poll is dynamic and is
updated continuously to reflect the existence of supported
sockets with valid queue information.

net: poll/select low latency socket support

2013-06-25T23:35:52+00:00

select/poll busy-poll support.

Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll.
updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt

Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call
sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value
to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found.

When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level
sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something.

Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can
return the result to the user ASAP.
