net/af_iucv: don't use paged skbs for TX on HiperSockets

2017-01-11T02:08:29+00:00

With commit e53743994e21
("af_iucv: use paged SKBs for big outbound messages"),
we transmit paged skbs for both of AF_IUCV's transport modes
(IUCV or HiperSockets).
The qeth driver for Layer 3 HiperSockets currently doesn't
support NETIF_F_SG, so these skbs would just be linearized again
by the stack.
Avoid that overhead by using paged skbs only for IUCV transport.

cc stable, since this also circumvents a significant skb leak when
sending large messages (where the skb then needs to be linearized).

Pull smp hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "This is the final round of converting the notifier mess to the state
  machine. The removal of the notifiers and the related infrastructure
  will happen around rc1, as there are conversions outstanding in other
  trees.

  The whole exercise removed about 2000 lines of code in total and in
  course of the conversion several dozen bugs got fixed. The new
  mechanism allows to test almost every hotplug step standalone, so
  usage sites can exercise all transitions extensively.

  There is more room for improvement, like integrating all the
  pointlessly different architecture mechanisms of synchronizing,
  setting cpus online etc into the core code"

net/iucv: Use explicit clean up labels in iucv_init()

2016-11-28T16:29:04+00:00

Ursula suggested to use explicit labels for clean up in the error path
instead of one `out_free' label, which handles multiple exits, introduced
in commit 38b482929e8f ("net/iucv: Convert to hotplug state machine").

Install the callbacks via the state machine and let the core invoke the
callbacks on the already online CPUs. The smp function calls in the
online/downprep callbacks are not required as the callback is guaranteed to
be invoked on the upcoming/outgoing cpu.

Subject: [PATCH] af_iucv: drop skbs rejected by filter

2016-10-12T05:56:04+00:00

A packet filter might be installed for instance with setsockopt
SO_ATTACH_FILTER. af_iucv currently queues skbs rejected by filter
into the backlog queue. This does not make sense, since packets
rejected by filter can be dropped immediately. This patch adds
separate sk_filter return code checking, and dropping of packets
if applicable.

Subject: [PATCH] af_iucv: enable control sends in case of SEND_SHUTDOWN

2016-10-12T05:56:04+00:00

If a socket program has shut down the socket for sending, it can still
receive an undetermined number of packets. The AF_IUCV protocol for
HIPER transport requires sending of a WIN flag from time to time
from the receiver to the sender, otherwise the peer cannot continue
sending. That means sending of control flags must still work, even
though the AF_IUCV socket is shutdown for sending data.
sock_alloc_send_skb() returns with error EPIPE, if socket sk_shutdown
is SEND_SHUTDOWN. Thus this patch temporarily removes the send
shutdown attribute from the socket to enable transfer of control
flags.

af_iucv: use paged SKBs for big inbound messages

2016-06-15T19:21:05+00:00

When an inbound message is bigger than a page, allocate a paged SKB,
and subsequently use IUCV receive primitive with IPBUFLST flag.
This relaxes the pressure to allocate big contiguous kernel buffers.
