net: fix kernel-doc warnings in header files

2008-02-19T04:52:13Z

Add missing structure kernel-doc descriptions to sock.h & skbuff.h to fix kernel-doc warnings. (I think that Stephen H. sent a similar patch, but I can't find it. I just want to kill the warnings, with either patch.) Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SOCK] proto: Add hashinfo member to struct proto

2008-02-03T12:28:52Z

This way we can remove TCP and DCCP specific versions of sk->sk_prot->get_port: both v4 and v6 use inet_csk_get_port sk->sk_prot->hash: inet_hash is directly used, only v6 need a specific version to deal with mapped sockets sk->sk_prot->unhash: both v4 and v6 use inet_hash directly struct inet_connection_sock_af_ops also gets a new member, bind_conflict, so that inet_csk_get_port can find the per family routine. Now only the lookup routines receive as a parameter a struct inet_hashtable. With this we further reuse code, reducing the difference among INET transport protocols. Eventually work has to be done on UDP and SCTP to make them share this infrastructure and get as a bonus inet_diag interfaces so that iproute can be used with these protocols. net-2.6/net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c: struct proto | +8 struct inet_connection_sock_af_ops | +8 2 structs changed __inet_hash_nolisten | +18 __inet_hash | -210 inet_put_port | +8 inet_bind_bucket_create | +1 __inet_hash_connect | -8 5 functions changed, 27 bytes added, 218 bytes removed, diff: -191 net-2.6/net/core/sock.c: proto_seq_show | +3 1 function changed, 3 bytes added, diff: +3 net-2.6/net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c: inet_csk_get_port | +15 1 function changed, 15 bytes added, diff: +15 net-2.6/net/ipv4/tcp.c: tcp_set_state | -7 1 function changed, 7 bytes removed, diff: -7 net-2.6/net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c: tcp_v4_get_port | -31 tcp_v4_hash | -48 tcp_v4_destroy_sock | -7 tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock | -2 tcp_unhash | -179 5 functions changed, 267 bytes removed, diff: -267 net-2.6/net/ipv6/inet6_hashtables.c: __inet6_hash | +8 1 function changed, 8 bytes added, diff: +8 net-2.6/net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c: inet_unhash | +190 inet_hash | +242 2 functions changed, 432 bytes added, diff: +432 vmlinux: 16 functions changed, 485 bytes added, 492 bytes removed, diff: -7 /home/acme/git/net-2.6/net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c: tcp_v6_get_port | -31 tcp_v6_hash | -7 tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock | -9 3 functions changed, 47 bytes removed, diff: -47 /home/acme/git/net-2.6/net/dccp/proto.c: dccp_destroy_sock | -7 dccp_unhash | -179 dccp_hash | -49 dccp_set_state | -7 dccp_done | +1 5 functions changed, 1 bytes added, 242 bytes removed, diff: -241 /home/acme/git/net-2.6/net/dccp/ipv4.c: dccp_v4_get_port | -31 dccp_v4_request_recv_sock | -2 2 functions changed, 33 bytes removed, diff: -33 /home/acme/git/net-2.6/net/dccp/ipv6.c: dccp_v6_get_port | -31 dccp_v6_hash | -7 dccp_v6_request_recv_sock | +5 3 functions changed, 5 bytes added, 38 bytes removed, diff: -33 Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Signed-off-by: David S.

[NET]: Introducing socket mark socket option.

2008-02-01T03:27:19Z

A userspace program may wish to set the mark for each packets its send without using the netfilter MARK target. Changing the mark can be used for mark based routing without netfilter or for packet filtering. It requires CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.

[TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer().

2008-01-28T23:01:42Z

Otherwise we beat heavily on the global tcp_memory atomics when all of the sockets in the system are slowly sending perioding packet clumps. Noticed and suggested by Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: prot_inuse cleanups and optimizations

2008-01-28T23:00:36Z

1) Cleanups (all functions are prefixed by sock_prot_inuse) sock_prot_inc_use(prot) -> sock_prot_inuse_add(prot,-1) sock_prot_dec_use(prot) -> sock_prot_inuse_add(prot,-1) sock_prot_inuse() -> sock_prot_inuse_get() New functions : sock_prot_inuse_init() and sock_prot_inuse_free() to abstract pcounter use. 2) if CONFIG_PROC_FS=n, we can zap 'inuse' member from "struct proto", since nobody wants to read the inuse value. This saves 1372 bytes on i386/SMP and some cpu cycles. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET] CORE: Introducing new memory accounting interface.

2008-01-28T23:00:18Z

This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting functions are removed since other functions do same thing. Renaming: sk_stream_free_skb() -> sk_wmem_free_skb() __sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> __sk_mem_reclaim() sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> sk_mem_reclaim() sk_stream_mem_schedule -> __sk_mem_schedule() sk_stream_pages() -> sk_mem_pages() sk_stream_rmem_schedule() -> sk_rmem_schedule() sk_stream_wmem_schedule() -> sk_wmem_schedule() sk_charge_skb() -> sk_mem_charge() Removeing sk_stream_rfree(): consolidates into sock_rfree() sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r() sk_stream_mem_schedule() The following functions are added. sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge() In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is removed from sk_mem_charge(). Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call. Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface in TCP and SCTP. Signed-off-by: Takahiro Yasui Signed-off-by: Hideo Aoki Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SOCK] Avoid divides in sk_stream_pages() and __sk_stream_mem_reclaim()

2008-01-28T23:00:05Z

sk_forward_alloc being signed, we should take care of divides by SK_STREAM_MEM_QUANTUM we do in sk_stream_pages() and __sk_stream_mem_reclaim() This patchs introduces SK_STREAM_MEM_QUANTUM_SHIFT, defined as ilog2(SK_STREAM_MEM_QUANTUM), to be able to use right shifts instead of plain divides. This should help compiler to choose right shifts instead of expensive divides (as seen with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y on x86) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[SOCK] Avoid integer divides where not necessary in include/net/sock.h

2008-01-28T22:59:59Z

Because sk_wmem_queued, sk_sndbuf are signed, a divide per two may force compiler to use an integer divide. We can instead use a right shift. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Remove FASTCALL macro

X86_32 was the last user of the FASTCALL macro, now that it uses regparm(3) by default, this macro expands to nothing. Signed-off-by: Harvey Harrison Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[NET]: Isolate the net/core/ sysctl table

2008-01-28T22:56:26Z

Using ctl paths we can put all the stuff, related to net/core/ sysctl table, into one file and remove all the references on it. As a good side effect this hides the "core_table" name from the global scope :) Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
