RED is useful for high throughput routers, I doubt many linux machines
act as such devices.
I was considering adding Adaptative RED (Sally Floyd, Ramakrishna
Gummadi, Scott Shender), August 2001
In this version, maxp is dynamic (from 1% to 50%), and user only have to
setup min_th (target average queue size)
(max_th and wq (burst in linux RED) are automatically setup)
By the way it seems we have a small bug in red_change()
if (skb_queue_empty(&sch->q))
red_end_of_idle_period(&q->parms);
First, if queue is empty, we should call
red_start_of_idle_period(&q->parms);
Second, since we dont use anymore sch->q, but q->qdisc, the test is
meaningless.
Oh well...
[PATCH] sch_red: fix red_change()
Now RED is classful, we must check q->qdisc->q.qlen, and if queue is empty,
we start an idle period, not end it.

ocfs2: avoid unaligned access to dqc_bitmap
The dqc_bitmap field of struct ocfs2_local_disk_chunk is 32-bit aligned,
but not 64-bit aligned. The dqc_bitmap is accessed by ocfs2_set_bit(),
ocfs2_clear_bit(), ocfs2_test_bit(), or ocfs2_find_next_zero_bit(). These
are wrapper macros for ext2_*_bit() which need to take an unsigned long
aligned address (though some architectures are able to handle unaligned
address correctly)
So some 64bit architectures may not be able to access the dqc_bitmap
correctly.
This avoids such unaligned access by using another wrapper functions for
ext2_*_bit(). The code is taken from fs/ext4/mballoc.c which also need to
handle unaligned bitmap access.

Btrfs: fix meta data raid-repair merge problem
Commit 4a54c8c16 introduced raid-repair, killing the individual
readpage_io_failed_hook entries from inode.c and disk-io.c. Commit 4bb31e92 introduced new readahead code, adding a readpage_io_failed_hook to
disk-io.c.
The raid-repair commit had logic to disable raid-repair, if
readpage_io_failed_hook is set. Thus, the readahead commit effectively
disabled raid-repair for meta data.
This commit changes the logic to always attempt raid-repair when needed and
call the readpage_io_failed_hook in case raid-repair fails. This is much
more straight forward and should have been like that from the beginning.

Currently netem is not in the ability to emulate channel bandwidth. Only static
delay (and optional random jitter) can be configured.
To emulate the channel rate the token bucket filter (sch_tbf) can be used. But
TBF has some major emulation flaws. The buffer (token bucket depth/rate) cannot
be 0. Also the idea behind TBF is that the credit (token in buckets) fills if
no packet is transmitted. So that there is always a "positive" credit for new
packets. In real life this behavior contradicts the law of nature where
nothing can travel faster as speed of light. E.g.: on an emulated 1000 byte/s
link a small IPv4/TCP SYN packet with ~50 byte require ~0.05 seconds - not 0
seconds.
Netem is an excellent place to implement a rate limiting feature: static
delay is already implemented, tfifo already has time information and the
user can skip TBF configuration completely.
This patch implement rate feature which can be configured via tc. e.g:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root netem rate 10kbit
To emulate a link of 5000byte/s and add an additional static delay of 10ms:
Note: similar to TBF the rate extension is bounded to the kernel timing
system. Depending on the architecture timer granularity, higher rates (e.g.
10mbit/s and higher) tend to transmission bursts. Also note: further queues
living in network adaptors; see ethtool(8).

Besides a potential race condition due to the multiple use of the list

done at every metadata block allocation. For every block group, we
fail to set up a cluster, and after failing on them all up to twice,
we fall back to the much slower unclustered allocation.
To make matters worse, before the unclustered allocation, we try to
create new block groups until we reach the 1% threshold, which
introduces additional bitmaps and thus block groups that we'll iterate
over at each metadata block request.

It seems overly harsh to fail a resize of a btrfs file system to the
same size when a shrink or grow would succeed. User app GParted trips
over this error. Allow it by bypassing the shrink or grow operation.

Btrfs: fix deadlock on metadata reservation when evicting a inode
When I ran the xfstests, I found the test tasks was blocked on meta-data
reservation.
By debugging, I found the reason of this bug:
start transaction
|
v
reserve meta-data space
|
v
flush delay allocation -> iput inode -> evict inode
^ |
| v
wait for delay allocation flush <- reserve meta-data space
And besides that, the flush on evicting inode will block the thread, which
is reclaiming the memory, and make oom happen easily.
Fix this bug by skipping the flush step when evicting inode.

This patch adds support for legacy Bosch CC770 and Intel AN82527 CAN
controllers on the ISA or PC-104 bus. The I/O port or memory address
and the IRQ number must be specified via module parameters:
insmod cc770_isa.ko port=0x310,0x380 irq=7,11
for ISA devices using I/O ports or:

net/smsc911x: Add regulator support
Add some basic regulator support for the power pins, as needed

chip using an external regulator.
Platforms that use regulators and the smsc911x and have no defined
regulator for the smsc911x and claim complete regulator

netlabel: Fix build problems when IPv6 is not enabled
A recent fix to the the NetLabel code caused build problem with

netlabel_kapi.c:165:4:
error: implicit declaration of function 'netlbl_af6list_add'
This patch fixes this problem by making the IPv6 specific code conditional
on the IPv6 configuration flags as we done in the rest of NetLabel and the
network stack as a whole. We have to move some variable declarations
around as a result so things may not be quite as pretty, but at least it
builds cleanly now.
Some additional IPv6 conditionals were added to the NetLabel code as well
for the sake of consistency.

The while loop at the bottom of ipoib_mcast_join_finish() will attempt
to send queued multicast packets in mcast->pkt_queue and eventually
end up in ipoib_mcast_send():
if (!mcast->ah) {
if (skb_queue_len(&mcast->pkt_queue) < IPOIB_MAX_MCAST_QUEUE)
skb_queue_tail(&mcast->pkt_queue, skb);
else {
++dev->stats.tx_dropped;
dev_kfree_skb_any(skb);
}
My read is that the code will requeue the packet and return to the
ipoib_mcast_join_finish() while loop and the stage is set for the
"hung" task diagnostic as the while loop never sees a non-NULL ah, and
will do nothing to resolve.
There are GFP_ATOMIC allocates in the provider routines, so this is
possible and should be dealt with.
The test that induced the failure is associated with a host SM on the
same server during a shutdown.
This patch causes ipoib_mcast_join_finish() to exit with an error
which will flush the queued mcast packets. Nothing is done to unwind
the QP attached state so that subsequent sends from above will retry
the join.

sctp: better integer overflow check in sctp_auth_create_key()
The check from commit 30c2235c is incomplete and cannot prevent
cases like key_len = 0x80000000 (INT_MAX + 1). In that case, the
left-hand side of the check (INT_MAX - key_len), which is unsigned,
becomes 0xffffffff (UINT_MAX) and bypasses the check.
However this shouldn't be a security issue. The function is called
from the following two code paths:
1) setsockopt()
2) sctp_auth_asoc_set_secret()
In case (1), sca_keylength is never going to exceed 65535 since it's
bounded by a u16 from the user API. As such, the key length will
never overflow.
In case (2), sca_keylength is computed based on the user key (1 short)
and 2 * key_vector (3 shorts) for a total of 7 * USHRT_MAX, which still
will not overflow.
In other words, this overflow check is not really necessary. Just
make it more correct.

tcp: avoid frag allocation for small frames
tcp_sendmsg() uses select_size() helper to choose skb head size when a
new skb must be allocated.
If GSO is enabled for the socket, current strategy is to force all
payload data to be outside of headroom, in PAGE fragments.
This strategy is not welcome for small packets, wasting memory.
Experiments show that best results are obtained when using 2048 bytes
for skb head (This includes the skb overhead and various headers)
This patch provides better len/truesize ratios for packets sent to
loopback device, and reduce memory needs for in-flight loopback packets,
particularly on arches with big pages.
If a sender sends many 1-byte packets to an unresponsive application,
receiver rmem_alloc will grow faster and will stop queuing these packets
sooner, or will collapse its receive queue to free excess memory.
netperf -t TCP_RR results are improved by ~4 %, and many workloads are
improved as well (tbench, mysql...)

Thanks David !
Here is a small patch to use one 64bit load/store on x86_64 instead of
two 32bit load/stores.
[PATCH net-next] flow_dissector: use a 64bit load/store
gcc compiler is smart enough to use a single load/store if we
memcpy(dptr, sptr, 8) on x86_64, regardless of
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
In IP header, daddr immediately follows saddr, this wont change in the
future. We only need to make sure our flow_keys (src,dst) fields wont
break the rule.
