tuntap: set transport header before passing it to kernel

2013-06-27T17:39:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit 38502af77e07b5d6650b9ff99a0b482d86366592 ]

Currently, for the packets receives from tuntap, before doing header check,
kernel just reset the transport header in netif_receive_skb() which pretends no
l4 header. This is suboptimal for precise packet length estimation (introduced
in 1def9238) which needs correct l4 header for gso packets.

So this patch set the transport header to csum_start for partial checksum
packets, otherwise it first try skb_flow_dissect(), if it fails, just reset the
transport header.

tuntap: correct the return value in tun_set_iff()

2013-06-27T17:39:07+00:00

[ Upstream commit e8dbad66ef56074eadb41ed5998acd2320447018 ]

commit (3be8fbab tuntap: fix error return code in tun_set_iff()) breaks the
creation of multiqueue tuntap since it forbids to create more than one queues
for a multiqueue tuntap device. We need return 0 instead -EBUSY here since we
don't want to re-initialize the device when one or more queues has been already
attached. Add a comment and correct the return value to zero.

tuntap: set SOCK_ZEROCOPY flag during open

2013-06-27T17:39:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit 19a6afb23e5d323e1245baa4e62755492b2f1200 ]

Commit 54f968d6efdbf7dec36faa44fc11f01b0e4d1990
(tuntap: move socket to tun_file) forgets to set SOCK_ZEROCOPY flag, which will
prevent vhost_net from doing zercopy w/ tap. This patch fixes this by setting
it during file open.

tuntap: forbid changing mq flag for persistent device

2013-06-27T17:39:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8e6d91ae0917bf934ed86411148f79d904728d51 ]

We currently allow changing the mq flag (IFF_MULTI_QUEUE) for a persistent
device. This will result a mismatch between the number the queues in netdev and
tuntap. This is because we only allocate a 1q netdevice when IFF_MULTI_QUEUE was
not specified, so when we set the IFF_MULTI_QUEUE and try to attach more queues
later, netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() may fail which result a single queue
netdevice with multiple sockets attached.

Solve this by disallowing changing the mq flag for persistent device.

Bug was introduced by commit edfb6a148ce62e5e19354a1dcd9a34e00815c2a1
(tuntap: reduce memory using of queues).

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators

2013-02-28T03:10:24+00:00

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation.

2013-02-13T18:30:10+00:00

Patch cef401de7be8c4e (net: fix possible wrong checksum
generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by
defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type.
net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation
offload of such packets without the feature.

Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses
same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag
SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by
the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared
info tx_flags rather than gso_type.

tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with
shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to
GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this.

The ipv6 route.c conflict is simple, just ignore the 'net' side change
as we fixed the same problem in 'net-next' by eliminating cached
neighbours from ipv6 routes.

The e1000e conflict is an addition of a new statistic in the ethtool
code, trivial.

The vmxnet3 conflict is about one change in 'net' removing a guarding
conditional, whilst in 'net-next' we had a netdev_info() conversion.

The iwlwifi conflict is dealing with a WARN_ON() conversion in
'net-next' vs. a revert happening in 'net'.
