Stephen Hemminger 16c6cf8bb4 ipv4: fib table algorithm performance improvement
The FIB algorithim for IPV4 is set at compile time, but kernel goes through
the overhead of function call indirection at runtime. Save some
cycles by turning the indirect calls to direct calls to either
hash or trie code.

Plan C: we can follow the Al Viro's proposal about %n like in this patch.
The same applies to udp, fib (the /proc/net/route file), rt_cache and

Eric Dumazet a6501e080c [IPV4] FIB_HASH: Reduce memory needs and speedup lookups
Currently, sizeof(struct fib_alias) is 24 or 48 bytes on 32/64 bits
arches.

Because of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN requirement, these are rounded to 32 and
64 bytes respectively.

This patch moves rcu to the end of fib_alias, and conditionally
defines it only for CONFIG_IP_FIB_TRIE.

We also remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN requirement for fib_alias and
fib_node objects because it is not necessary.

(BTW SLUB currently denies it for objects smaller than
cache_line_size() / 2, but not SLAB)

Finally, sizeof(fib_alias) go back to 16 and 32 bytes.

Then, we can embed one fib_alias on each fib_node, to favor locality.
Most of the time access to the fib_alias will be free because one
cache line contains both the list head (fn_alias) and (one of) the
list element.

Eric Dumazet 8d3f099abe [IPV4] FIB_HASH : Avoid unecessary loop in fn_hash_dump_zone()
I noticed "ip route list" was slower than "cat /proc/net/route" on a
machine with a full Internet routing table (214392 entries : Special
thanks to Robert ;) )

This is similar to problem reported in commit
d8c9283089 ("[IPV4] ROUTE: ip_rt_dump()
is unecessary slow")

Fix is to avoid scanning the begining of fz_hash table, but directly
seek to the right offset.

Before patch :

time ip route >/tmp/ROUTE

real    0m1.285s
user    0m0.712s
sys     0m0.436s

After patch

# time ip route >/tmp/ROUTE

Eric W. Biederman 457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

Tim Schmielau cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).
