KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki 6f91204225 [PATCH] for_each_possible_cpu: network codes
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs.  We've had mistakes
in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been
iterating across only online or present CPUs.  This is inefficient and
possibly buggy.

We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the
future.

This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu under /net

Davide Libenzi f348d70a32 [PATCH] POLLRDHUP/EPOLLRDHUP handling for half-closed devices notifications
Implement the half-closed devices notifiation, by adding a new POLLRDHUP
(and its alias EPOLLRDHUP) bit to the existing poll/select sets.  Since the
existing POLLHUP handling, that does not report correctly half-closed
devices, was feared to be changed, this implementation leaves the current
POLLHUP reporting unchanged and simply add a new bit that is set in the few
places where it makes sense.  The same thing was discussed and conceptually
agreed quite some time ago:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2003/7/12/116

Since this new event bit is added to the existing Linux poll infrastruture,
even the existing poll/select system calls will be able to use it.  As far
as the existing POLLHUP handling, the patch leaves it as is.  The
pollrdhup-2.6.16.rc5-0.10.diff defines the POLLRDHUP for all the existing
archs and sets the bit in the six relevant files.  The other attached diff
is the simple change required to sys/epoll.h to add the EPOLLRDHUP
definition.

There is "a stupid program" to test POLLRDHUP delivery here:

 http://www.xmailserver.org/pollrdhup-test.c

It tests poll(2), but since the delivery is same epoll(2) will work equally.

Herbert Xu 2babf9daae [SCTP]: Fix up sctp_rcv return value
I was working on the ipip/xfrm problem and as usual I get side-tracked by
other problems.

As part of an attempt to change the IPv4 protocol handler calling
convention I found that SCTP violated the existing convention.

It's returning non-zero values after freeing the skb.  This is doubly bad
as 1) the skb gets resubmitted; 2) the return value is interpreted as a
protocol number.

This patch changes those return values to zero.

IPv6 doesn't suffer from this problem because it uses a positive return
value as an indication for resubmission.  So the only effect of this patch
there is to increment the IPSTATS_MIB_INDELIVERS counter which IMHO is
the right thing to do.

Vlad Yasevich 27852c26ba [SCTP]: Fix 'fast retransmit' to send a TSN only once.
SCTP used to "fast retransmit" a TSN every time we hit the number
of missing reports for the TSN.  However the Implementers Guide
specifies that we should only "fast retransmit" a given TSN once.
Subsequent retransmits should be timeouts only. Also change the
number of missing reports to 3 as per the latest IG(similar to TCP).

Vlad Yasevich 313e7b4d25 [SCTP]: Fix machine check/connection hang on IA64.
sctp_unpack_cookie used an on-stack array called digest as a result/out
parameter in the call to crypto_hmac. However, hmac code
(crypto_hmac_final)
assumes that the 'out' argument is in virtual memory (identity mapped
region)
and can use virt_to_page call on it.  This does not work with the on-stack
declared digest.  The problems observed so far have been:
 a) incorrect hmac digest
 b) machine check and hardware reset.

Solution is to define the digest in an identity mapped region by
kmalloc'ing
it.  We can do this once as part of the endpoint structure and re-use it
when
verifying the SCTP cookie.

This patch corrects the panic by casting the argument to the
pointer of correct size.  On big-endian systems we ended up loading
only 32 bits of data because we are treating the pointer as an int*.
By treating this pointer as loff_t*, we'll load the full 64 bits
and then let regular integer demotion take place which will give us
the correct value.

Vlad Yasevich 49392e5ecf [SCTP]: sctp doesn't show all associations/endpoints in /proc
When creating a very large number of associations (and endpoints),
/proc/assocs and /proc/eps will not show all of them.  As a result
netstat will not show all of the either.  This is particularly evident
when creating 1000+ associations (or endpoints).  As an example with
1500 tcp style associations over loopback, netstat showed 1420 on my
system instead of 3000.

The reason for this is that the seq_operations start method is invoked
multiple times bacause of the amount of data that is provided.  The
start method always increments the position parameter and since we use
the position as the hash bucket id, we end up skipping hash buckets.

This patch corrects this situation and get's rid of the silly hash-1
decrement.

Vlad Yasevich 9834a2bb49 [SCTP]: Fix sctp_cookie alignment in the packet.
On 64 bit architectures, sctp_cookie sent as part of INIT-ACK is not
aligned on a 64 bit boundry and thus causes unaligned access exceptions.

The layout of the cookie prameter is this:
|<----- Parameter Header --------------------|<--- Cookie DATA --------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
| param type (16 bits) | param len (16 bits) | sig [32 bytes] | cookie..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The cookie data portion contains 64 bit values on 64 bit architechtures
(timeval) that fall on a 32 bit alignment boundry when used as part of
the on-wire format, but align correctly when used in internal
structures.  This patch explicitely pads the on-wire format so that
it is properly aligned.

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.

Herbert Xu e5ed639913 [IPV4]: Replace __in_dev_get with __in_dev_get_rcu/rtnl
The following patch renames __in_dev_get() to __in_dev_get_rtnl() and
introduces __in_dev_get_rcu() to cover the second case.

1) RCU with refcnt should use in_dev_get().
2) RCU without refcnt should use __in_dev_get_rcu().
3) All others must hold RTNL and use __in_dev_get_rtnl().

There is one exception in net/ipv4/route.c which is in fact a pre-existing
race condition.  I've marked it as such so that we remember to fix it.

This patch is based on suggestions and prior work by Suzanne Wood and
Paul McKenney.

Jesper Juhl 573dbd9596 [CRYPTO]: crypto_free_tfm() callers no longer need to check for NULL
Since the patch to add a NULL short-circuit to crypto_free_tfm() went in,
there's no longer any need for callers of that function to check for NULL.
This patch removes the redundant NULL checks and also a few similar checks
for NULL before calls to kfree() that I ran into while doing the
crypto_free_tfm bits.

I've succesfuly compile tested this patch, and a kernel with the patch 
applied boots and runs just fine.

When I posted the patch to LKML (and other lists/people on Cc) it drew the
following comments :

 J. Bruce Fields commented
  "I've no problem with the auth_gss or nfsv4 bits.--b."

 Sridhar Samudrala said
  "sctp change looks fine."

 Herbert Xu signed off on the patch.

So, I guess this is ready to be dropped into -mm and eventually mainline.

Eric Dumazet ba89966c19 [NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section
(read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without
memory ping pongs.

On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a
heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a
reload.
