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.

This reverts commit 81d54ec847.
If we take the "try_again" goto, due to a checksum error,
the 'len' has already been truncated. So we won't compute
the same values as the original code did.

When in user-stp mode, bridge master do not follow state of its slaves, so
after the following sequence of events it can stuck forever in no-carrier
state:
1) turn stp off
2) put all slaves down - master device will follow their state and also go in
no-carrier state
3) turn stp on with bridge-stp script returning 0 (go to the user-stp mode)
Now bridge master won't follow slaves' state and will never reach running
state.
This patch solves the problem by making user-stp and kernel-stp behavior
similar regarding master following slaves' states.

Since commit a4a710c4a7 (pkt_sched: Change PSCHED_SHIFT from 10 to

red_calc_qavg_from_idle_time() computes a delay in us units, but this
delay is now 16 times bigger than real delay, so the final qavg result
smaller than expected.

A recent fix to the the NetLabel code caused build problem with
configurations that did not have IPv6 enabled; see below:
netlabel_kapi.c: In function 'netlbl_cfg_unlbl_map_add':
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 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.

When a packet is supposed to sent be as an a-MPDU, mac80211 sets
IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU to let the driver know. On the other
hand, mac80211 configures the driver for aggregration with the
ampdu_action callback.
There is race between these two mechanisms since the following
scenario can occur when the BA agreement is torn down:
Tx softIRQ drv configuration
========== =================
check OPERATIONAL bit
Set the TX_CTL_AMPDU bit in the packet
clear OPERATIONAL bit
stop Tx AGG
Pass Tx packet to the driver.
In that case the driver would get a packet with TX_CTL_AMPDU set
although it has already been notified that the BA session has been
torn down.
To fix this, we need to synchronize all the Qdisc activity after we
cleared the OPERATIONAL bit. After that step, all the following
packets will be buffered until the driver reports it is ready to get
new packets for this RA / TID. This buffering allows not to run into
another race that would send packets with TX_CTL_AMPDU unset while
the driver hasn't been requested to tear down the BA session yet.
This race occurs in practice and iwlwifi complains with a WARN_ON
when it happens.

When transmiting a fragmented skb, qlge fills a descriptor with the
fragment addresses, after DMA-mapping them. If there are more than eight
fragments, it will use the eighth descriptor as a pointer to an external
list. After mapping this external list, called OAL to a structure
containing more descriptors, it fills it with the extra fragments.
However, considering that systems with pages larger than 8KiB would have
less than 8 fragments, which was true before commit a715dea3c8, it
defined a macro for the OAL size as 0 in those cases.
Now, if a skb with more than 8 fragments (counting skb->data as one
fragment), this would start overwriting the list of addresses already
mapped and would make the driver fail to properly unmap the right
addresses on architectures with pages larger than 8KiB.
Besides that, the list of mappings was one size too small, since it must
have a mapping for the maxinum number of skb fragments plus one for
skb->data and another for the OAL. So, even on architectures with page
sizes 4KiB and 8KiB, a skb with the maximum number of fragments would
make the driver overwrite its counter for the number of mappings, which,
again, would make it fail to unmap the mapped DMA addresses.
