2006-09-22SUNRPC: use sockaddr + size when creating remote transport endpointsChuck Lever
Prepare for more generic transport endpoint handling needed by transports that might use different forms of addressing, such as IPv6. Introduce a single function call to replace the two-call xprt_create_proto/rpc_create_client API. Define a new rpc_create_args structure that allows callers to pass in remote endpoint addresses of varying length. Test-plan: Compile kernel with CONFIG_NFS enabled.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Use "sockaddr_storage" for storing RPC client's remote peer addressChuck Lever
IPv6 addresses are big (128 bytes). Now that no RPC client consumers treat the addr field in rpc_xprt structs as an opaque, and access it only via the API calls, we can safely widen the field in the rpc_xprt struct to accomodate larger addresses.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Create API for displaying remote peer addressChuck Lever
Provide an API for formatting the remote peer address for printing without exposing its internal structure. The address could be dynamic, so we support a function call to get the address rather than reading it straight out of a structure. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Probably need to rig a server where certain services aren't running, or that returns an error for some typical operation.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Introduce transport switch callout for pluggable rpcbindChuck Lever
Introduce a clean transport switch API for plugging in different types of rpcbind mechanisms.

2006-09-22SUNRPC: Make RPC portmapper use per-transport storageChuck Lever
Move connection and bind state that was maintained in the rpc_clnt structure to the rpc_xprt structure. This will allow the creation of a clean API for plugging in different types of bind mechanisms. This brings improvements such as the elimination of a single spin lock to control serialization for all in-kernel RPC binding. A set of per-xprt bitops is used to serialize tasks during RPC binding, just like it now works for making RPC transport connections. Test-plan: Destructive testing (unplugging the network temporarily). Connectathon with UDP and TCP. NFSv2/3 and NFSv4 mounting should be carefully checked.

This turns out to be a genuine bug. The queue lock and xmit lock are intentionally taken out of order. Two things are supposed to prevent dead-locks from occuring: 1) When we hold the queue_lock we're supposed to only do try_lock on the tx_lock. 2) We always drop the queue_lock after taking the tx_lock and before doing anything else. > > the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is: > > -> #1 (&dev->_xmit_lock){-+..}: > [<c012e7b6>] lock_acquire+0x76/0xa0 > [<c0336241>] _spin_lock_bh+0x31/0x40 > [<c02d25a9>] dev_activate+0x69/0x120 This path obviously breaks assumption 1) and therefore can lead to ABBA dead-locks. I've looked at the history and there seems to be no reason for the lock to be held at all in dev_watchdog_up. The lock appeared in day one and even there it was unnecessary. In fact, people added __dev_watchdog_up precisely in order to get around the tx lock there. The function dev_watchdog_up is already serialised by rtnl_lock since its only caller dev_activate is always called under it. So here is a simple patch to remove the tx lock from dev_watchdog_up. In 2.6.19 we can eliminate the unnecessary __dev_watchdog_up and replace it with dev_watchdog_up. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2006-08-29[IPV6]: ipv6_add_addr should install dstentry earlierKeir Fraser
ipv6_add_addr allocates a struct inet6_ifaddr and a dstentry, but it doesn't install the dstentry in ifa->rt until after it releases the addrconf_hash_lock. This means other CPUs will be able to see the new address while it hasn't been initialized completely yet.

2006-08-26[DCCP]: Fix CCID3Ian McDonald
This fixes CCID3 to give much closer performance to RFC4342. CCID3 is meant to alter sending rate based on RTT and loss. The performance was verified against: http://wand.net.nz/~perry/max_download.php For example I tested with netem and had the following parameters: Delayed Acks 1, MSS 256 bytes, RTT 105 ms, packet loss 5%. This gives a theoretical speed of 71.9 Kbits/s. I measured across three runs with this patch set and got 70.1 Kbits/s. Without this patchset the average was 232 Kbits/s which means Linux can't be used for CCID3 research properly. I also tested with netem turned off so box just acting as router with 1.2 msec RTT. The performance with this is the same with or without the patch at around 30 Mbit/s. Signed off by: Ian McDonald <ian.mcdonald@jandi.co.nz> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
