When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
for 10 times.
The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only.
Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years).
This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from
process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must
no be used from hardirq context.

The Ethernet framing is used for a lot of devices these days. Most
prominent are WiFi and WiMAX based devices. However for userspace
application it is important to classify these devices correctly and
not only see them as Ethernet devices. The daemons like HAL, DeviceKit
or even NetworkManager with udev support tries to do the classification
in userspace with a lot trickery and extra system calls. This is not
good and actually reaches its limitations. Especially since the kernel
does know the type of the Ethernet device it is pretty stupid.
To solve this problem the underlying device type needs to be set and
then the value will be exported as DEVTYPE via uevents and available
within udev.
# cat /sys/class/net/wlan0/uevent
DEVTYPE=wlan
INTERFACE=wlan0
IFINDEX=5
This is similar to subsystems like USB and SCSI that distinguish
between hosts, devices, disks, partitions etc.
The new SET_NETDEV_DEVTYPE() is a convenience helper to set the actual
device type. All device types are free form, but for convenience the
same strings as used with RFKILL are choosen.

Kalle Olavi Niemitalo reported that:
"..., when one process calls sendmsg once to send 43804 bytes of
data and one file descriptor, and another process then calls recvmsg
three times to receive the 16032+16032+11740 bytes, each of those
recvmsg calls returns the file descriptor in the ancillary data. I
confirmed this with strace. The behaviour differs from Linux
2.6.26, where reportedly only one of those recvmsg calls (I think
the first one) returned the file descriptor."
This bug was introduced by a patch from me titled "net: unix: fix inflight
counting bug in garbage collector", commit 6209344f5.
And the reason is, quoting Kalle:
"Before your patch, unix_attach_fds() would set scm->fp = NULL, so
that if the loop in unix_stream_sendmsg() ran multiple iterations,
it could not call unix_attach_fds() again. But now,
unix_attach_fds() leaves scm->fp unchanged, and I think this causes
it to be called multiple times and duplicate the same file
descriptors to each struct sk_buff."
Fix this by introducing a flag that is cleared at the start and set
when the fds attached to the first buffer. The resulting code should
work equivalently to the one on 2.6.26.

This patch adds a classful dummy scheduler which can be used as root qdisc
for multiqueue devices and exposes each device queue as a child class.
This allows to address queues individually and graft them similar to regular
classes. Additionally it presents an accumulated view of the statistics of
all real root qdiscs in the dummy root.
Two new callbacks are added to the qdisc_ops and qdisc_class_ops:
- cl_ops->select_queue selects the tx queue number for new child classes.
- qdisc_ops->attach() overrides root qdisc device grafting to attach
non-shared qdiscs to the queues.

Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Currently the multiqueue integration with the qdisc API suffers from
a few problems:
- with multiple queues, all root qdiscs use the same handle. This means
they can't be exposed to userspace in a backwards compatible fashion.
- all API operations always refer to queue number 0. Newly created
qdiscs are automatically shared between all queues, its not possible
to address individual queues or restore multiqueue behaviour once a
shared qdisc has been attached.
- Dumps only contain the root qdisc of queue 0, in case of non-shared
qdiscs this means the statistics are incomplete.
This patch reintroduces dev->qdisc, which points to the (single) root qdisc
from userspace's point of view. Currently it either points to the first
(non-shared) default qdisc, or a qdisc shared between all queues. The
following patches will introduce a classful dummy qdisc, which will be used
as root qdisc and contain the per-queue qdiscs as children.

This patch introduces a new sysctl option to make IPv4 Address Scoping
configurable <draft-stewart-tsvwg-sctp-ipv4-00.txt>.
In networking environments where DNAT rules in iptables prerouting
chains convert destination IP's to link-local/private IP addresses,
SCTP connections fail to establish as the INIT chunk is dropped by the
kernel due to address scope match failure.
For example to support overlapping IP addresses (same IP address with
different vlan id) a Layer-5 application listens on link local IP's,
and there is a DNAT rule that maps the destination IP to a link local
IP. Such applications never get the SCTP INIT if the address-scoping
draft is strictly followed.
This sysctl configuration allows SCTP to function in such
unconventional networking environments.
Sysctl options:
0 - Disable IPv4 address scoping draft altogether
1 - Enable IPv4 address scoping (default, current behavior)
2 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 private addresses in init/init-ack
3 - Enable address scoping but allow IPv4 link local address in init/init-ack

We had a bug that we never stored the user-defined value for
MAXSEG when setting the value on an association. Thus future
PMTU events ended up re-writing the frag point and increasing
it past user limit. Additionally, when setting the option on
the socket/endpoint, we effect all current associations, which
is against spec.
Now, we store the user 'maxseg' value along with the computed
'frag_point'. We inherit 'maxseg' from the socket at association
creation and use it as an upper limit for 'frag_point' when its

SCTP will delay the last part of a large write due to NAGLE, if that

The decision to delay due to Nagle should be based on the path mtu
and future packet size. We currently incorrectly base it on
'frag_point' which is the SCTP DATA segment size, and also we do
not count DATA chunk header overhead in the computation. This

This results in an hung association if the remote only uses

from the sack, but since we faked it to be 0, we enter 0-window

SCTP has a problem that when small chunks are used, it is possible
to exhaust the receiver buffer without fully closing receive window.
This happens due to all overhead that we have account for with small
messages. To fix this, when receive buffer is exceeded, we'll drop
the window to 0 and save the 'drop' portion. When application starts
reading data and freeing up recevie buffer space, we'll wait until
we've reached the 'drop' window and then add back this 'drop' one
mtu at a time. This worked well in testing and under stress produced
rather even recovery.

SCTP RFC 4960 states that unacknowledged HEARTBEATS count as
errors agains a given transport or endpoint. As such, we
should increment the error counts for only for unacknowledged
HB, otherwise we detect failure too soon. This goes for both
the overall error count and the path error count.
Now, there is a difference in how the detection is done
between the two. The path error detection is done after
the increment, so to detect it properly, we actually need
to exceed the path threshold. The overall error detection
is done _BEFORE_ the increment. Thus to detect the failure,
it's enough for the error count to match the threshold.
This is why all the state functions use '>=' to detect failure,
while path detection uses '>'.

Currenlty, sctp breaks up user messages into fragments and
sends each fragment to the lower layer by itself. This means
that for each fragment we go all the way down the stack
and back up. This also discourages bundling of multiple
fragments when they can fit into a sigle packet (ex: due
to user setting a low fragmentation threashold).
We introduce a new command SCTP_CMD_SND_MSG and hand the
whole message down state machine. The state machine and

If the association has a SACK timer pending and now DATA queued
to be send, we'll try to bundle the SACK with the next application send.
As such, try encourage bundling by accounting for SACK in the size

We are now trying to bundle SACKs when we have outbound
DATA to send. However, there are situations where this
outbound DATA will not be sent (due to congestion or
available window). In such cases it's ok to wait for the
timer to expire. This patch refactors the sending code
so that betfore attempting to bundle the SACK we check
to see if the DATA will actually be transmitted.

Since an application may specify the maximum SCTP fragment size
that all data should be fragmented to, we need to fix how
we do segmentation. Right now, if a user specifies a small
fragment size, the segment size can go negative in the presence
of AUTH or COOKIE_ECHO bundling.
What we need to do is track the largest possbile DATA chunk that
can fit into the mtu. Then if the fragment size specified is
bigger then this maximum length, we'll shrink it down. Otherwise,
we just use the smaller segment size without changing it further.

If a socket has a lot of association that are in the process of
of being closed/aborted, it is possible for a remote to establish
new associations during the time period that the old ones are shutting
down. If this was a result of a close() call, there will be no socket
and will cause a memory leak. We'll prevent this by setting the
socket state to CLOSING and disallow new associations when in this state.

This patch corrects the conditions under which a SACK will be piggybacked
on a DATA packet. The previous condition was incorrect due to a
misinterpretation of RFC 4960 and/or RFC 2960. Specifically, the
following paragraph from section 6.2 had not been implemented correctly:
Before an endpoint transmits a DATA chunk, if any received DATA
chunks have not been acknowledged (e.g., due to delayed ack), the
sender should create a SACK and bundle it with the outbound DATA
chunk, as long as the size of the final SCTP packet does not exceed
the current MTU. See Section 6.2.
When about to send a DATA chunk, the code now checks to see if the SACK
timer is running. If it is, we know we have a SACK to send to the
peer, so we append the SACK (assuming available space in the packet)
and turn off the timer. For a simple request-response scenario, this
will result in the SACK being bundled with the response, meaning the
the SACK is received quickly by the client, and also meaning that no
separate SACK packet needs to be sent by the server to acknowledge the
request. Prior to this patch, a separate SACK packet would have been
sent by the server SCTP only after its delayed-ACK timer had expired
(usually 200ms). This is wasteful of bandwidth, and can also have a
major negative impact on performance due the interaction of delayed ACKs
with the Nagle algorithm.

Here is a patch which fixes an issue observed when using TCP over IPv6
and AH from IPsec.
When a connection gets closed the 4-way method and the last ACK from
the server gets dropped, the subsequent FINs from the client do not
get ACKed because tcp_v6_send_response does not set the transport
header pointer. This causes ah6_output to try to allocate a lot of
memory, which typically fails, so the ACKs never make it out of the
stack.
I have reproduced the problem on kernel 2.6.7, but after looking at
the latest kernel it seems the problem is still there.

This fixed a lockdep warning which appeared when doing stress
memory tests over NFS:
inconsistent {RECLAIM_FS-ON-W} -> {IN-RECLAIM_FS-W} usage.
page reclaim => nfs_writepage => tcp_sendmsg => lock sk_lock
mount_root => nfs_root_data => tcp_close => lock sk_lock =>
tcp_send_fin => alloc_skb_fclone => page reclaim
David raised a concern that if the allocation fails in tcp_send_fin(), and it's
GFP_ATOMIC, we are going to yield() (which sleeps) and loop endlessly waiting
for the allocation to succeed.
But fact is, the original GFP_KERNEL also sleeps. GFP_ATOMIC+yield() looks
weird, but it is no worse the implicit sleep inside GFP_KERNEL. Both could
loop endlessly under memory pressure.

Christoph Lameter pointed out that packet drops at qdisc level where not
accounted in SNMP counters. Only if application sets IP_RECVERR, drops
are reported to user (-ENOBUFS errors) and SNMP counters updated.
IP_RECVERR is used to enable extended reliable error message passing,
but these are not needed to update system wide SNMP stats.
This patch changes things a bit to allow SNMP counters to be updated,
regardless of IP_RECVERR being set or not on the socket.
Example after an UDP tx flood
# netstat -s
...
IP:
1487048 outgoing packets dropped
...
Udp:
...
SndbufErrors: 1487048
send() syscalls, do however still return an OK status, to not
break applications.
Note : send() manual page explicitly says for -ENOBUFS error :
"The output queue for a network interface was full.
This generally indicates that the interface has stopped sending,
but may be caused by transient congestion.
(Normally, this does not occur in Linux. Packets are just silently
dropped when a device queue overflows.) "
This is not true for IP_RECVERR enabled sockets : a send() syscall
that hit a qdisc drop returns an ENOBUFS error.

bonding driver really uses it currently. Since the drop_monitor code
relies on the last_rx field to detect drops on recevie in hardware, We
need to find a more reliable way to rate limit our drop checks (so
that we don't check for drops on every frame recevied, which would be
inefficient. This patch makes a last_rx timestamp that is private to
the drop monitor code and is updated for every device that we track.

RFC 1122 specifies two threshold values R1 and R2 for connection timeouts,
which may represent a number of allowed retransmissions or a timeout value.
Currently linux uses sysctl_tcp_retries{1,2} to specify the thresholds
in number of allowed retransmissions.
For any desired threshold R2 (by means of time) one can specify tcp_retries2
(by means of number of retransmissions) such that TCP will not time out
earlier than R2. This is the case, because the RTO schedule follows a fixed
pattern, namely exponential backoff.
However, the RTO behaviour is not predictable any more if RTO backoffs can be
reverted, as it is the case in the draft
"Make TCP more Robust to Long Connectivity Disruptions"
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-tcp-lcd).
In the worst case TCP would time out a connection after 3.2 seconds, if the
initial RTO equaled MIN_RTO and each backoff has been reverted.
This patch introduces a function retransmits_timed_out(N),
which calculates the timeout of a TCP connection, assuming an initial
RTO of MIN_RTO and N unsuccessful, exponentially backed-off retransmissions.
Whenever timeout decisions are made by comparing the retransmission counter
to some value N, this function can be used, instead.
The meaning of tcp_retries2 will be changed, as many more RTO retransmissions
can occur than the value indicates. However, it yields a timeout which is
similar to the one of an unpatched, exponentially backing off TCP in the same
scenario. As no application could rely on an RTO greater than MIN_RTO, there
should be no risk of a regression.

Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to
TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has
not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure
somewhere along the path.
With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the
patched TCP will operate as standard TCP.
This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable
message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives.
Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the
remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission
is sent out immediately.
Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if
there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already.
