c1a8f1f1c8 net: restore gnet_stats_basic to previous definition
In 5e140dfc1f "net: reorder struct Qdisc
for better SMP performance" the definition of struct gnet_stats_basic
changed incompatibly, as copies of this struct are shipped to
userland via netlink.

Restoring old behavior is not welcome, for performance reason.

Fix is to use a private structure for kernel, and
teach gnet_stats_copy_basic() to convert from kernel to user land,
using legacy structure (struct gnet_stats_basic)

Based on a report and initial patch from Michael Spang.

511e11e396 pkt_sched: gen_estimator: use 64 bit intermediate counters for bps
gen_estimator can overflow bps (bytes per second) with Gb links, while
it was designed with a u32 API, with a theorical limit of 34360Mbit
(2^32 bytes)

Using 64 bit intermediate avbps/brate counters can allow us to reach
this theorical limit.

244e6c2d07 pkt_sched: gen_estimator: Optimize gen_estimator_active()
Since all other gen_estimator functions use bstats and rate_est params
together, and searching for them is optimized now, let's use this also
in gen_estimator_active(). The return type of gen_estimator_active()
is changed to bool, and gen_find_node() parameters to const, btw.

In tcf_act_police_locate() a check for ACT_P_CREATED is added before
calling gen_estimator_active().

c1b56878fb tc: policing requires a rate estimator
Found that while trying average rate policing, it was possible to
request average rate policing without a rate estimator. This results
in no policing which is harmless but incorrect.

Since policing could be setup in two steps, need to check
in the kernel.

4db0acf3c0 net: gen_estimator: Fix gen_kill_estimator() lookups
gen_kill_estimator() linear lists lookups are very slow, and e.g. while
deleting a large number of HTB classes soft lockups were reported. Here
is another try to fix this problem: this time internally, with rbtree,
so similarly to Jamal's hashing idea IIRC. (Looking for next hits could
be still optimized, but it's really fast as it is.)

deb3abf15f Revert "pkt_sched: Protect gen estimators under est_lock."
This reverts commit d4766692e7.

qdisc_destroy() now runs in RTNL fully again, so this
change is no longer needed.

d4766692e7 pkt_sched: Protect gen estimators under est_lock.
gen_kill_estimator() required rtnl_lock() protection, but since it is
moved to an RCU callback __qdisc_destroy() let's use est_lock instead.

1e90474c37 [NET_SCHED]: Convert packet schedulers from rtnetlink to new netlink API
Convert packet schedulers to use the netlink API. Unfortunately a gradual
conversion is not possible without breaking compilation in the middle or
adding lots of casts, so this patch converts them all in one step. The
patch has been mostly generated automatically with some minor edits to
at least allow seperate conversion of classifiers and actions.

0929c2dd83 [NET]: gen_estimator deadlock fix
-Fixes ABBA deadlock noted by Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>:

> There is at least one ABBA deadlock, est_timer() does:
> read_lock(&est_lock)
> spin_lock(e->stats_lock) (which is dev->queue_lock)
>
> and qdisc_destroy calls htb_destroy under dev->queue_lock, which
> calls htb_destroy_class, then gen_kill_estimator and this
> write_locks est_lock.

To fix the ABBA deadlock the rate estimators are now kept on an rcu list.

-The est_lock changes the use from protecting the list to protecting
the update to the 'bstat' pointer in order to avoid NULL dereferencing.

-The 'interval' member of the gen_estimator structure removed as it is
not needed.

6b25d30bf1 [NET]: Fix gen_estimator timer removal race
As noticed by Jarek Poplawski <jarkao2@o2.pl>, the timer removal in
gen_kill_estimator races with the timer function rearming the timer.

Check whether the timer list is empty before rearming the timer
in the timer function to fix this.

1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
