* net_sched: gred: Fix oops in gred_dump() in WRED modeDavid Ward2012-04-271-5/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 244b65dbfede788f2fa3fe2463c44d0809e97c6b ] A parameter set exists for WRED mode, called wred_set, to hold the same values for qavg and qidlestart across all VQs. The WRED mode values had been previously held in the VQ for the default DP. After these values were moved to wred_set, the VQ for the default DP was no longer created automatically (so that it could be omitted on purpose, to have packets in the default DP enqueued directly to the device without using RED). However, gred_dump() was overlooked during that change; in WRED mode it still reads qavg/qidlestart from the VQ for the default DP, which might not even exist. As a result, this command sequence will cause an oops: tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle $HANDLE parent $PARENT gred setup \ DPs 3 default 2 grio tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 0 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS tc qdisc change dev $DEV handle $HANDLE gred DP 1 prio 8 $RED_OPTIONS This fixes gred_dump() in WRED mode to use the values held in wred_set.

* sch_gred: should not use GFP_KERNEL while holding a spinlockEric Dumazet2012-01-061-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 3f1e6d3fd37bd4f25e5b19f1c7ca21850426c33f ] gred_change_vq() is called under sch_tree_lock(sch). This means a spinlock is held, and we are not allowed to sleep in this context. We might pre-allocate memory using GFP_KERNEL before taking spinlock, but this is not suitable for stable material.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* pkt_sched: Remove qdisc->ops->requeue() etc.Jarek Poplawski2008-11-131-21/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | After implementing qdisc->ops->peek() and changing sch_netem into classless qdisc there are no more qdisc->ops->requeue() users. This patch removes this method with its wrappers (qdisc_requeue()), and also unused qdisc->requeue structure. There are a few minor fixes of warnings (htb_enqueue()) and comments btw.

* [PKT_SCHED]: (G)RED: Introduce hard droppingThomas Graf2005-11-051-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduces a new flag TC_RED_HARDDROP which specifies that if ECN marking is enabled packets should still be dropped once the average queue length exceeds the maximum threshold. This _may_ help to avoid global synchronisation during small bursts of peers advertising but not caring about ECN. Use this option very carefully, it does more harm than good if (qth_max - qth_min) does not cover at least two average burst cycles. The difference to the current behaviour, in which we'd run into the hard queue limit, is that due to the low pass filter of RED short bursts are less likely to cause a global synchronisation.

| | | | | | | | | | | Since we are no longer depending on the default VQ to be always allocated we can leave it up to the user to actually create it.

* [PKT_SCHED]: GRED: Dont abuse default VQ for equalizingThomas Graf2005-11-051-17/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduces a new red parameter set for use in equalize mode, although only the qavg variable and the idle period marker are being used for now this makes it possible to allow a separate parameter set to be used for equalize later on. The use of this separate parameter set fixes a bogus start of an idle period in gred_drop() which did start an idle period on the default VQ even if equalize mode was disabled.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Try to enqueue packets if we cannot associate it with a VQ, this basically means that the default VQ has not been set up yet.

| | | | | | | | | | Qdiscs are not supposed to reset statistics in reset() and while changing parameters.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduces a flags variable using bitops and transforms eqp to use it. Converts the conditions of the form (wred && rio) to (wred) since wred can only be enabled in rio mode anyway. The patch also improves WRED mode detection. The current behaviour does not allow WRED mode to be turned off again without removing the whole qdisc first. The new algorithm checks each VQ against each other looking for equal priorities every time a VQ is changed or added. The performance is poor, O(n**2), but it's used only during administrative tasks and the number of VQs is strictly limited.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
