Maybe its low cost, (apparently, it is, since I can reach ~900.000 ipis
on my 16 cores machine) but multiply this by 16 or 32 or 64 cpus, and
clockevents_notify() cost appears to be a killer, all cpus compete on a
single lock.

Maybe this notifier could use RCU ?

Applied thanks.

I applied this follow-on patch to take the opportunity to clean up
something that has been bugging me for a long time, but never had the
energy to take care of :-)

net: Use explicit "unsigned int" instead of plain "unsigned" in netdevice.h

Please, try to fix this properly.  Unless you have a known chip errata
with the TX interrupt that cannot be worked around reasonably, which
would need to be detailed and explained completely in the commit log
message, you should try to figure out what the real problem is.

Otherwise just tossing everything to a workqueue looks like a hack, at
best.

I suspect you have some kind of race between IRQ processing and the
->ndo_start_xmit() handler, so you end up missing a queue wakeup.
Either that or you end up misprogramming the hardware due to the race.

There is no way I'm applying this as-is.

We can use rcu_dereference_protected() in those cases.

Sorry, patch _is_ fine, I had one brain collapse when re-reading it, I
thought a different mutex was in use in one of the functions.

This makes the skb->len == 0 test at the beginning completely redundant.

Put your pskb_may_pull(skb, 2) call there and remove the skb->len==0
check entirely.

Don't propagate stupidity.

The real problem is that ppp_read() can't handle non-linear SKBs, so
fix that instead.  The easiest way to do that is to put a "struct
iovec iov;" on ppp_read()'s stack, fill it in with ther user buffer
pointer and length, then use that to call
skb_copy_datagram_const_iovec().

From: Changli Gao @ 2010-05-02 21:53 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: David Miller; +Cc: eric.dumazet, netdev, Changli Gao

remove useless union keyword in rtable, rt6_info and dn_route.

Since there is only one member in a union, the union keyword isn't useful.

* [PATCH] ethernet: call __skb_pull() in eth_type_trans()
From: Changli Gao @ 2010-05-02 22:50 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: David Miller; +Cc: eric.dumazet, netdev, Changli Gao

call __skb_pull() in eth_type_trans().

Since the callers of eth_type_trans() always feed it long enough packets,
we can use __skb_pull() to save some cycles.

Thats right, in 2.6.20, next pointer was relocalised at the end of
'struct dst_entry' in commits 093c2ca4167cf66f69020329d14138da0da8599b
and 1e19e02ca0c5e33ea73a25127dbe6c3b8fcaac4b

The union trick is only needed in 'struct dst_entry'.

Please respin your patch against net-next-2.6

The reason is it needs to be applied on top of the patch that adds the
same header to tun that you acked.  I put this in patch description:

Although they should, assuming that some runts won't show up here and
never check for that condition at all is dangerous.

At least we should have a WARN_ON() check for skb->len < ETH_ZLEN here
or similar.

So many other things get layered into ethernet, which means adding
this length assumption without any checks is bound to lead to
unpleasant surprises for somebody.

* Performance problem in network namespaces
From: Martín Ferrari @ 2010-05-03  9:25 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: netdev; +Cc: Mathieu Lacage

Hi,

When running some benchmarks to test the feasibility of using
namespaces for emulating networks, I have found a big drop in
performance when one of the namespaces is performing routing of
packets.

After some search, we found that  in ip_forward() the skb is being
copied. It seems that (ICMP and UDP, does not happen with TCP) packets
start with a small headroom (16 bytes in our observation) but skb_cow
always allocates at least NET_SKB_PAD (32 in x86) bytes of headroom,
thus triggering this unnecessary memcpy.

We made two crude attempts at fixing this, which are surely incorrect,
but hopefully somebody here could come up with a correct solution.

Our attempts are: 1. remove the lower bound in headroom size at
skb_cow, and 2. set needed_headroom in veth.c to NET_SKB_PAD; patches
included below.

Thanks.

Yes, of course. I implemented it that way just to get started. I first
want to concentrate on getting the basic drivers in place (still have
IXP46x and Phyter to do), and then on the ancillary features, like
timers, time stamping external inputs, and so on.

I understand that some fine grained access control to the PTP clock
woul be nice to have, but I am not sure exactly what would work best,
and I would like to save that decision for later...

However, if you have some ideas, please take a look at the list of
features in the docu, and explain how you would like the access
control to work.

Or better yet, post a patch ;)

Thanks,
Richard

* [PATCH] IPv4: unresolved multicast route cleanup
From: Andreas Meißner @ 2010-05-03  9:47 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: David S. Miller; +Cc: netdev

from: Andreas Meissner <andreas.meissner@sphairon.com>

Fixes the expiration timer for unresolved multicast route entries.
In case new multicast routing requests come in faster than the 
expiration timeout occurs (e.g. zap through multicast TV streams), the 
timer is prevented from being called at time for already existing entries.

Signed-off by: Andreas Meissner <andreas.meissner@sphairon.com>
---
As the single timer is resetted to default whenever a new entry is made, 
the timeout for existing unresolved entires are missed and/or not 
updated. As a consequence new requests are denied when the limit of 
unresolved entries has been reached because old entries live longer than 
they are supposed to.
The solution is to reset the timer only for the first unresolved entry 
in the multicast routing cache. All other timers are already set and 
updated correctly within the timer function itself by now.

could this be an artifact of the local apic stopping in deeper C states?
(which is finally fixed in the Westmere generation)

Yes it is I think.

But I suspect Eric wants a solution for Nehalem.

I've been doing some more testing before sending out a pull

traffic when this is applied but mergeable buffers are not in used
by userspace (existing qemu-kvm userspace).

This is both with and without my patch on top.
