This patch effectively reverts commit d0498d9ae1
aka "[NET]: Do not allocate unneeded memory for dev->priv alignment."
It was found to be buggy because of final unconditional += NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST
removal.
For example, for sizeof(struct net_device) being 2048 bytes, "alloc_size"
was also 2048 bytes, but allocator with debugging options turned on started
giving out !32-byte aligned memory resulting in redzones overwrites.
Patch does small optimization in ->priv'less case: bumping size to next
32-byte boundary was always done to ensure ->priv will also be aligned.
But, no ->priv, no need to do that.

The alloc_netdev_mq() tries to produce 32-bytes alignment for both
the net_device itself and its private data. The second alignment is
achieved by adding the NETDEV_ALIGN_CONST to the whole size of
the memory to be allocated.
However, for those devices that do not need the private area, this
addition just makes the net_device weight 1024 + 32 = 1068 bytes,
i.e. consume twice as much memory.
Since loopback device is such (sizeof_priv == 0 for it), and each
net namespace creates one, this can save a noticeable amount of
memory for kernel with net namespaces turned on.
After this set the lo device is actually allocated from a size-1024
kmem cache on i386 box even with NETPOLL and WIRELESS_EXT turned on.

Currently, it is not possible to read/write to an eeprom larger than

Add the elastic array of void * pointer to the struct net.
The access rules are simple:
1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get
the id of your private pointer
2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the
struct net (most preferably this should be done in the
->init callback of the ops registered)
3. do not store any private reference on the net_generic array;
4. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
5. use the net_generic() to get the pointer.
When adding a new pointer, I copy the old array, replace it
with a new one and schedule the old for kfree after an RCU
grace period.
Since the net_generic explores the net->gen array inside rcu
read section and once set the net->gen->ptr[x] pointer never
changes, this grants us a safe access to generic pointers.
Quoting Paul: "... RCU is protecting -only- the net_generic
structure that net_generic() is traversing, and the [pointer]
returned by net_generic() is protected by a reference counter
in the upper-level struct net."

To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to address
them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs generator for pernet
subsystems.
Addressing questions about potential checkpoint/restart problems:
these IDs are "lite-offsets" within the net structure and are by no
means supposed to be exported to the userspace.
Since it will be used in the nearest future by devices only (tun,
vlan, tunnels, bridge, etc), I make it resemble the functionality
of register_pernet_device().
The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the init
callback to make this id available in this callback.

SKF_ADF_NLATTR searches for a netlink attribute, which avoids manually
parsing and walking attributes. It takes the offset at which to start
searching in the 'A' register and the attribute type in the 'X' register
and returns the offset in the 'A' register. When the attribute is not
found it returns zero.
A top-level attribute can be located using a filter like this
(example for nfnetlink, using struct nfgenmsg):
...
{
/* A = offset of first attribute */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_IMM,
.k = sizeof(struct nlmsghdr) + sizeof(struct nfgenmsg)
},
{
/* X = CTA_PROTOINFO */
.code = BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM,
.k = CTA_PROTOINFO,
},
{
/* A = netlink attribute offset */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS,
.k = SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR
},
{
/* Exit if not found */
.code = BPF_JMP | BPF_JEQ | BPF_K,
.k = 0,
.jt = <error>
},
...
A nested attribute below the CTA_PROTOINFO attribute would then
be parsed like this:
...
{
/* A += sizeof(struct nlattr) */
.code = BPF_ALU | BPF_ADD | BPF_K,
.k = sizeof(struct nlattr),
},
{
/* X = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP */
.code = BPF_LDX | BPF_IMM,
.k = CTA_PROTOINFO_TCP,
},
{
/* A = netlink attribute offset */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_ABS,
.k = SKF_AD_OFF + SKF_AD_NLATTR
},
...
The data of an attribute can be loaded into 'A' like this:
...
{
/* X = A (attribute offset) */
.code = BPF_MISC | BPF_TAX,
},
{
/* A = skb->data[X + k] */
.code = BPF_LD | BPF_B | BPF_IND,
.k = sizeof(struct nlattr),
},
...

Such an accounting would cost us two more dereferences to get the
percpu variable from the struct net, so I make sock_prot_inuse_get
and _add calls work differently depending on CONFIG_NET_NS - without
it old optimized routines are used.

that even af_inet, that starts as fs_initcall, will already have the

And redirect sock_prot_inuse_add and _get to use one.
As far as the dereferences are concerned. Before the patch we made
1 dereference to proto->inuse.add call, the call itself and then
called the __get_cpu_var() on a static variable. After the patch we
make a direct call, then one dereference to proto->inuse_idx and
then the same __get_cpu_var() on a still static variable. So this
patch doesn't seem to produce performance penalty on SMP.
This is not per-net yet, but I will deliberately make NET_NS=y case
separated from NET_NS=n one, since it'll cost us one-or-two more
dereferences to get the struct net and the inuse counter.

Proxy neighbors do not have any reference counting, so any caller
of pneigh_lookup (unless it's a netlink triggered add/del routine)
should _not_ perform any actions on the found proxy entry.
There's one exception from this rule - the ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns()
uses found entry to check the flags for NTF_ROUTER.
This creates a race between the ndisc and pneigh_delete - after
the pneigh is returned to the caller, the nd_tbl.lock is dropped
and the deleting procedure may proceed.
One of the fixes would be to add a reference counting, but this
problem exists for ndisc only. Besides such a patch would be too
big for -rc4.
So I propose to introduce a __pneigh_lookup() which is supposed
to be called with the lock held and use it in ndisc code to check
the flags on alive pneigh entry.
Changes from v2:
As David noticed, Exported the __pneigh_lookup() to ipv6 module.
The checkpatch generates a warning on it, since the EXPORT_SYMBOL
does not follow the symbol itself, but in this file all the
exports come at the end, so I decided no to break this harmony.
Changes from v1:
Fixed comments from YOSHIFUJI - indentation of prototype in header
and the pndisc_check_router() name - and a compilation fix, pointed
by Daniel - the is_routed was (falsely) considered as uninitialized
by gcc.

Update: My mailer ate one of Jarek's feedback mails... Fixed the
parameter in netif_set_gso_max_size() to be u32, not u16. Fixed the
whitespace issue due to a patch import botch. Changed the types from
u32 to unsigned int to be more consistent with other variables in the
area. Also brought the patch up to the latest net-2.6.26 tree.
Update: Made gso_max_size container 32 bits, not 16. Moved the
location of gso_max_size within netdev to be less hotpath. Made more
consistent names between the sock and netdev layers, and added a
define for the max GSO size.
Update: Respun for net-2.6.26 tree.
Update: changed max_gso_frame_size and sk_gso_max_size from signed to
unsigned - thanks Stephen!
This patch adds the ability for device drivers to control the size of
the TSO frames being sent to them, per TCP connection. By setting the
netdevice's gso_max_size value, the socket layer will set the GSO
frame size based on that value. This will propogate into the TCP
layer, and send TSO's of that size to the hardware.
This can be desirable to help tune the bursty nature of TSO on a
per-adapter basis, where one may have 1 GbE and 10 GbE devices
coexisting in a system, one running multiqueue and the other not, etc.
This can also be desirable for devices that cannot support full 64 KB
TSO's, but still want to benefit from some level of segmentation
offloading.
