Sridhar Samudrala 29c7cf9618 [SCTP]: Handle address add/delete events in a more efficient way.
Currently in SCTP, we maintain a local address list by rebuilding the whole
list from the device list whenever we get a address add/delete event.

This patch fixes it by only adding/deleting the address for which we
receive the event.

Also removed the sctp_local_addr_lock() which is no longer needed as we
now use list_for_each_safe() to traverse this list. This fixes the bugs
in sctp_copy_laddrs_xxx() routines where we do copy_to_user() while
holding this lock.

In a recent patch we introduced invalid return codes which will result in the

This fixes it by returning ~0 which means not calculated as per

Al Viro e1b4b9f398 [NETFILTER]: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: fix exponential worst-case search for loops
If we come to node we'd already marked as seen and it's not a part of path
(i.e. we don't have a loop right there), we already know that it isn't a
part of any loop, so we don't need to revisit it.

That speeds the things up if some chain is refered to from several places
and kills O(exp(table size)) worst-case behaviour (without sleeping,
at that, so if you manage to self-LART that way, you are SOL for a long
time)...

And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.

And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

J.Bruce Fields e0bb89ef03 [PATCH] knfsd: nfsd: don't drop silently on upcall deferral
To avoid tying up server threads when nfsd makes an upcall (to mountd, to get
export options, to idmapd, for nfsv4 name<->id mapping, etc.), we temporarily
"drop" the request and save enough information so that we can revisit it
later.

Certain failures during the deferral process can cause us to really drop the
request and never revisit it.

This is often less than ideal, and is unacceptable in the NFSv4 case--rfc 3530
forbids the server from dropping a request without also closing the
connection.

As a first step, we modify the deferral code to return -ETIMEDOUT (which is
translated to nfserr_jukebox in the v3 and v4 cases, and remains a drop in the
v2 case).

Dean Manners notices that when an IPVS synchonisation daemons are

to the call to ssleep(1) (aka msleep(1000) in the main loop. Replacing
this with a call to msleep_interruptable() seems to make the problem go
away. Though I'm not sure that it is correct.

This is the second edition of this patch, which replaces ssleep()
in the main loop for both the master and backup threads, as well
as some thread synchronisation code. The latter is just for thorougness
as it shouldn't be causing any problems.

Gerrit Renker c5a1ae9a4c [DCCP] ccid3: Perform history operations only after packet has been sent
This migrates all packet history operations into the routine
 ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent, thereby removing synchronization problems
 that occur when, as before, the operations are spread over multiple
 routines.
 The following minor simplifications are also applied:
  * several simplifications now follow from this change - several tests
    are now no longer required
  * removal of one unnecessary variable (dp)

Justification:

 Currently packet history operations span two different routines,
 one of which is likely to pass through several iterations of sleeping
 and awakening.
 The first routine, ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet, allocates an entry and
 sets a few fields. The remaining fields are filled in when the second
 routine (which is not within a sleeping context), ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent,
 is called. This has several strong drawbacks:
  * it is not necessary to split history operations - all fields can be
    filled in by the second routine
  * the first routine is called multiple times, until a packet can be sent,
    and sleeps meanwhile - this causes a lot of difficulties with regard to
    keeping the list consistent
  * since both routines do not have a producer-consumer like synchronization,
    it is very difficult to maintain data across calls to these routines
  * the fact that the routines are called in different contexts (sleeping, not
    sleeping) adds further problems

Gerrit Renker 9f8681db96 [DCCP] ccid3: Shift window counter computation
This puts the window counter computation [RFC 4342, 8.1] into a separate
 function which is called whenever a new packet is ready for immediate
 transmission in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet.

Justification:

 The window counter update was previously computed after the packet was sent. This has
 two drawbacks, both fixed by this patch:
   1) re-compute another timestamp almost directly after the packet was sent (expensive),
   2) the CCVal for the window counter is needed at the instant the packet is sent.

Further details:

 The initialisation of the window counter is left in the state NO_SENT, as before.
 The algorithm will do nothing if either RTT is initialised to 0 (which is ok) or if
 the RTT value remains below 4 microseconds (which is almost pathological).

Gerrit Renker de553c189e [DCCP] ccid3: Sanity-check RTT samples
CCID3 performance depends much on the accuracy of RTT samples.  If RTT
samples grow too large, performance can be catastrophically poor.

To limit the amount of possible damage in such cases, the patch
 * introduces an upper limit which identifies a maximum `sane' RTT value;
 * uses a macro to enforce this upper limit.

Using a macro was given preference, since it is necessary to identify the
calling function in the warning message. Since exceeding this threshold
identifies a critical condition, DCCP_CRIT is used and not DCCP_WARN.

Many thanks to Ian McDonald for collaboration on this issue.

Gerrit Renker fe0499ae95 [DCCP] ccid3: Initialise RTT values
In both the sender and the receiver it is possible that the stored
RTT value is accessed before an actual RTT estimate has been computed.

This patch
 * initialises the sender RTT to 0
     - the sender always accesses the RTT in ccid3_hc_tx_packet_sent
     - the RTT is further needed for the window counter algorithm

 * replaces the receiver initialisation of 5msec with 0
     - which has the same effect and removes an `XXX'
     - the RTT value is needed in ccid3_hc_rx_packet_recv as rtt_prev

Gerrit Renker 65d6c2b42e [DCCP] ccid: Deprecate ccid_hc_tx_insert_options
The function ccid3_hc_tx_insert_options only does a redundant no-op,
 as the operation

  DCCP_SKB_CB(skb)->dccpd_ccval = hctx->ccid3hctx_last_win_count;

 is already performed _unconditionally_ in ccid3_hc_tx_send_packet.

 Since there is further no current need for this function, it is removed
 entirely. Since furthermore, there is actually no present need for the
 entire interface function ccid_hc_tx_insert_options, it was decided to
 remove it also, to clean up the interface.

Gerrit Renker f6282f4da5 [DCCP]: Warn when discarding packet due to internal errors
This adds a (debug) warning message which is triggered whenever a packet is
discarded due to send failure.

It also adds a conditional, so that an interruption during dccp_wait_for_ccid
is not treated as a `BUG': the rationale is that interruptions are external,
whereas bug warnings are concerned with the internals.

Gerrit Renker bf58a381e8 [DCCP]: Only deliver to the CCID rx side in charge
This is an optimisation to reduce CPU load. The received feedback is now
only directed to the active CCID component, without requiring processing
also by the inactive one.

As a consequence, a similar test in ccid3.c is now redundant and is
also removed.

Justification:

 Currently DCCP works as a unidirectional service, i.e. a listening server
 is not at the same time a connecting client.
 As far as I can see, several modifications are necessary until that
 becomes possible.
 At the present time, received feedback is both fed to the rx/tx CCID
 modules. In unidirectional service, only one of these is active at any
 one time.

Gerrit Renker d63d8364cf [DCCP]: Simplify TFRC calculation
In migrating towards using the newer functions scaled_div/scaled_div32
for TFRC computations mapped from floating-point onto integer arithmetic,
this completes the last stage of modifications.

In particular, the overflow case for computing X_calc is circumvented by
 * breaking the computation into two stages
 * the first stage, res = (s*1E6)/R, cannot overflow due to use of u64
 * in the second stage, res = (res*1E6)/f, overflow on u32 is avoided due
   to (i) returning UINT_MAX in this case (which is logically appropriate)
   and (ii) issuing a warning message into the system log (since very likely
   there is a problem somewhere else with the parameters)

Lastly, all such scaling operations are now exported into tfrc.h, since
actually this form of scaled computation is specific to TFRC and not to CCID3.

Gerrit Renker 0f9e5b573f [DCCP]: Debug timeval operations
Problem:

 Most target types in the CCID3 code are u32, so subtle conversion errors
 can occur if signed time calculations yield negative results: the original
 values are lost in the conversion to unsigned, calculation errors go undetected.

 This patch therefore
   * sets all critical time types from unsigned to suseconds_t
   * avoids comparison between signed/unsigned via type-casting
   * provides ample warning messages in case time calculations are negative

 These warning messages can be removed at a later stage when the code
 has undergone more testing.

Gerrit Renker bfe24a6cc2 [DCCP] ccid3: Simplify calculation for reverse lookup of p
This simplifies the calculation of a value p for a given fval when the
 first loss interval is computed (RFC 3448, 6.3.1). It makes use of the
 two new functions scaled_div/scaled_div32 to provide overflow protection.

 Additionally, protection against divide-by-zero is extended - in this
 case the function will return the maximally possible value of p=100%.

Background:

 The maximum fval, f(100%), is approximately 244, i.e. the scaled value of fval
 should never exceed 244E6, which fits easily into u32. The problem is the scaling
 by 10^6, since additionally R(TT) is in microseconds.
 This is resolved by breaking the division into two stages: the first stage
 computes fval=(s*10^6)/R, stores that into u64; the second stage computes
 fval = (fval*10^6)/X_recv and complains if overflow is reached for u32.
 This case is safe since the TFRC reverse-lookup routine then returns p=100%.

Gerrit Renker 1a21e49a8d [DCCP] ccid3: Finer-grained resolution of sending rates
This patch
 * resolves a bug where packets smaller than 32/64 bytes resulted in sending rates of 0
 * supports all sending rates from 1/64 bytes/second up to 4Gbyte/second
 * simplifies the present overflow problems in calculations

Current sending rate X and the cached value X_recv of the receiver-estimated
sending rate are both scaled by 64 (2^6) in order to
 * cope with low sending rates (minimally 1 byte/second)
 * allow upgrading to use a packets-per-second implementation of CCID 3
 * avoid calculation errors due to integer arithmetic cut-off

The patch implements a revised strategy from
http://www.mail-archive.com/dccp@vger.kernel.org/msg01040.html

The only difference with regard to that strategy is that t_ipi is already
used in the calculation of the nofeedback timeout, which saves one division.

 1) a bug in the recomputation of the sending rate by the nofeedback
    timer when no feedback at all has so far been sent by the receiver:
    min_t was used instead of max_t, which is wrong (cf. RFC 3448, p. 10);

 2) an error in the computation of larger initial windows: instead of
    min(... max()) (cf. RFC 4342, 5.), the code had used max(... max()).

Gerrit Renker ff58629824 [DCCP] ccid3: Two optimisations for sending rate recomputation
This performs two optimisations for the recomputation of the sending rate.

1) Currently the target sending rate X_calc is recalculated whenever
	a) the nofeedback timer expires, or
	b) a feedback packet is received.
   In the (a) case, recomputing X_calc is redundant, since

    * the parameters p and RTT do not change in between the
      reception of feedback packets;

    * the parameter X_recv is either modified from received
      feedback or via the nofeedback timer;

    * a test (`p == 0') in the nofeedback timer avoids using
      a stale/undefined value of X_calc if p was previously 0.

2) The nofeedback timer now only recomputes a timestamp when p == 0.
   This is according to step (4) of [RFC 3448, 4.3] and avoids
   unnecessarily determining a timestamp.

A debug statement about not updating X is also removed - it helps very
little in debugging and just clutters the logs.
