Kay Sievers fd586bacf4 [PATCH] net: swich device attribute creation to default attrs
Recent udev versions don't longer cover bad sysfs timing with built-in
logic. Explicit rules are required to do that. For net devices, the
following is needed:
  ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", WAIT_FOR_SYSFS="address"
to handle access to net device properties from an event handler without
races.

This patch changes the main net attributes to be created by the driver
core, which is done _before_ the event is sent out and will not require
the stat() loop of the WAIT_FOR_SYSFS key.

Andrea Bittau 709dd3aaf5 [DCCP]: Do not process a packet twice when it's not in state DCCP_OPEN.
When packets are received, the connection is either in DCCP_OPEN
[fast-path] or it isn't.  If it's not [e.g. DCCP_PARTOPEN] upper
layers will perform sanity checks and parse options.  If it is in
DCCP_OPEN, dccp_rcv_established() will do it.  It is important not to
re-parse options in dccp_rcv_established() when it is not called from
the fast-path.  Else, fore example, the ack vector will be added twice
and the CCID will see the packet twice.

The solution is to always enfore sanity checks from the upper layers.
When packets arrive in the fast-path, sanity checks will be performed
before calling dccp_rcv_established().

Note(acme): I rewrote the patch to achieve the same result but keeping
dccp_rcv_established with the previous semantics and having it split
into __dccp_rcv_established, that doesn't does do any sanity check,
code in state != DCCP_OPEN use this lighter version as they already do
the sanity checks.

The attached patch makes DECnet routing only use routers from the same
area - rather than the highest rated router seen.

In theory there should not be an out-of-area router on a local network
but some networks are bridged rather than properly routed. VMS seems
to behave similarly: if I bring up a VMS node with no router then it
can't see anything else on the global network.

The attached patch (against current -GIT) is a cleanup patch which does
following:

o lookup debug messages shifted back to 9
o added more informational value to flags and refcnt since those

o cleanup 80 char violation

threshold limitation and persistency without the thousands of lookup

Benjamin LaHaise fd19f329a3 [AF_UNIX]: Convert to use a spinlock instead of rwlock
From: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org>

In af_unix, a rwlock is used to protect internal state.  At least on my 
P4 with HT it is faster to use a spinlock due to the simpler memory 
barrier used to unlock.  This patch raises bw_unix to ~690K/s.

Benjamin LaHaise 4947d3ef8d [NET]: Speed up __alloc_skb()
From: Benjamin LaHaise <bcrl@kvack.org>

In __alloc_skb(), the use of skb_shinfo() which casts a u8 * to the 
shared info structure results in gcc being forced to do a reload of the 
pointer since it has no information on possible aliasing.  Fix this by 
using a pointer to refer to skb_shared_info.

By initializing skb_shared_info sequentially, the write combining buffers 
can reduce the number of memory transactions to a single write.  Reorder 
the initialization in __alloc_skb() to match the structure definition.  
There is also an alignment issue on 64 bit systems with skb_shared_info 
by converting nr_frags to a short everything packs up nicely.

Also, pass the slab cache pointer according to the fclone flag instead 
of using two almost identical function calls.

This raises bw_unix performance up to a peak of 707KB/s when combined 
with the spinlock patch.  It should help other networking protocols, too.

Eric Dumazet 90ddc4f047 [NET]: move struct proto_ops to const
I noticed that some of 'struct proto_ops' used in the kernel may share
a cache line used by locks or other heavily modified data. (default
linker alignement is 32 bytes, and L1_CACHE_LINE is 64 or 128 at
least)

This patch makes sure a 'struct proto_ops' can be declared as const,
so that all cpus can share all parts of it without false sharing.

This is not mandatory : a driver can still use a read/write structure
if it needs to (and eventually a __read_mostly)

I made a global stubstitute to change all existing occurences to make
them const.

This should reduce the possibility of false sharing on SMP, and
speedup some socket system calls.
