9d21493b4b net: tx scalability works : trans_start
struct net_device trans_start field is a hot spot on SMP and high performance
devices, particularly multi queues ones, because every transmitter dirties
it. Is main use is tx watchdog and bonding alive checks.

But as most devices dont use NETIF_F_LLTX, we have to lock
a netdev_queue before calling their ndo_start_xmit(). So it makes
sense to move trans_start from net_device to netdev_queue. Its update
will occur on a already present (and in exclusive state) cache line, for
free.

We can do this transition smoothly. An old driver continue to
update dev->trans_start, while an updated one updates txq->trans_start.

Further patches could also put tx_bytes/tx_packets counters in 
netdev_queue to avoid dirtying dev->stats (vlan device comes to mind)

cb1c4b71f6 cls_cgroup: remove unneeded cgroup_lock
We can remove this lock here, since we are in cgroup write handler and
thus the cgrp is guaranteed to be valid, and no lock is needed when

d0ab8ff81b net: Only store high 16 bits of kernel generated filter priorities
The kernel should only be using the high 16 bits of a kernel
generated priority. Filter priorities in all other cases only
use the upper 16 bits of the u32 'prio' field of 'struct tcf_proto',
but when the kernel generates the priority of a filter is saves all
32 bits which can result in incorrect lookup failures when a filter
needs to be deleted or modified.

8caf153974 net: sch_netem: Fix an inconsistency in ingress netem timestamps.
Alex Sidorenko reported:

"while experimenting with 'netem' we have found some strange behaviour. It
seemed that ingress delay as measured by 'ping' command shows up on some
hosts but not on others.

After some investigation I have found that the problem is that skbuff->tstamp
field value depends on whether there are any packet sniffers enabled. That
is:

- if any ptype_all handler is registered, the tstamp field is as expected
- if there are no ptype_all handlers, the tstamp field does not show the delay"

This patch prevents unnecessary update of tstamp in dev_queue_xmit_nit()
on ingress path (with act_mirred) adding a check, so minimal overhead on
the fast path, but only when sniffers etc. are active.

Since netem at ingress seems to logically emulate a network before a host,
tstamp is zeroed to trigger the update and pretend delays are from the
outside.

7cd0a63872 pkt_sched: Change misleading code in class delete.
While looking for a possible reason of bugzilla report on HTB oops:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12858
I found the code in htb_delete calling htb_destroy_class on zero
refcount is very misleading: it can suggest this is a common path, and
destroy is called under sch_tree_lock. Actually, this can never happen
like this because before deletion cops->get() is done, and after
delete a class is still used by tclass_notify. The class destroy is
always called from cops->put(), so without sch_tree_lock.

This doesn't mean much now (since 2.6.27) because all vulnerable calls
were moved from htb_destroy_class to htb_delete, but there was a bug
in older kernels. The same change is done for other classful scheds,
which, it seems, didn't have similar locking problems here.

c276e098d3 Revert "net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28"
This reverts commit 22604c8668.

We can't fix this issue in this way, because we now can try
to take the dev_base_lock rwlock as a writer in software interrupt
context and that is not allowed without major surgery elsewhere.

This initial link state problem needs to be solved in some other
way.

22604c8668 net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28
From: Michael Marineau <mike@marineau.org>

Commit b47300168e "Do not fire linkwatch
events until the device is registered." was made as a workaround for
drivers that call netif_carrier_off before registering the device.
Unfortunately this causes these drivers to incorrectly report their
link status as IF_OPER_UNKNOWN which can falsely set the IFF_RUNNING
flag when the interface is first brought up. This issues was
previously pointed out[1] but was dismissed saying that IFF_RUNNING is
not related to the link status. From my digging IFF_RUNNING, as
reported to userspace, is based on the link state. It is set based on
__LINK_STATE_START and IF_OPER_UP or IF_OPER_UNKNOWN. See [2], [3],
and [4]. (Whether or not the kernel has IFF_RUNNING set in flags is
not reported to user space so it may well be independent of the link,
I don't know if and when it may get set.)

The end result depends slightly depending on the driver. The the two I
tested were e1000e and b44. With e1000e if the system is booted
without a network cable attached the interface will falsely report
RUNNING when it is brought up causing NetworkManager to attempt to
start it and eventually time out. With b44 when the system is booted
with a network cable attached and brought up with dhcpcd it will time
out the first time.

The attached patch that will still set the operstate variable
correctly to IF_OPER_UP/DOWN/etc when linkwatch_fire_event is called
but then return rather than skipping the linkwatch_fire_event call
entirely as the previous fix did. (sorry it isn't inline, I don't have
a patch friendly email client at the moment)

Since all other gen_estimator functions use bstats and rate_est params
together, and searching for them is optimized now, let's use this also
in gen_estimator_active(). The return type of gen_estimator_active()
is changed to bool, and gen_find_node() parameters to const, btw.

In tcf_act_police_locate() a check for ACT_P_CREATED is added before

c1b56878fb tc: policing requires a rate estimator
Found that while trying average rate policing, it was possible to
request average rate policing without a rate estimator. This results
in no policing which is harmless but incorrect.

Since policing could be setup in two steps, need to check
in the kernel.

3f0947c3ff pkt_sched: sch_drr: fix drr_dequeue loop()
Jarek Poplawski points out:

If all child qdiscs of sch_drr are non-work-conserving (e.g. sch_tbf)
drr_dequeue() will busy-loop waiting for skbs instead of leaving the
job for a watchdog. Checking for list_empty() in each loop isn't
necessary either, because this can never be true except the first time.

Using non-work-conserving qdiscs as children of DRR makes no sense,
simply bail out in that case.

d314774cf2 netdev: network device operations infrastructure
This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative
operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure.

This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the
new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once.
For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list
still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new
net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers.

After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to
an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable.

Some function pointers aren't moved:
* destructor can't be in net_device_ops because
  it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded.
* neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special
  consideration
* hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

f400923735 pkt_sched: Control group classifier
The classifier should cover the most common use case and will work
without any special configuration.

The principle of the classifier is to directly access the
task_struct via get_current(). In order for this to work,
classification requests from softirqs must be ignored. This is
not a problem because the vast majority of packets in softirq
context are not assigned to a task anyway. For this to work, a
mechanism is needed to trace softirq context. 

This repost goes back to the method of relying on the number of
nested bh disable calls for the sake of not adding too much
complexity and the option to come up with something more reliable
if actually needed.

0220146411 sch_netem: Remove classful functionality
Patrick McHardy noticed that: "a lot of the functionality of netem
requires the inner tfifo anyways and rate-limiting is usually done
on top of netem. So I would suggest so either hard-wire the tfifo
qdisc or at least make the assumption that inner qdiscs are
work-conserving.", and later: "- a lot of other qdiscs still don't
work as inner qdiscs of netem [...]".

So, according to his suggestion, this patch removes classful options
of netem. The main reason of this change is to remove ops->requeue()
method, which is currently used only by netem.

This patch adds qdisc_peek_dequeued() wrapper to emulate peek method
with qdisc->dequeue() and storing "peeked" skb in qdisc->gso_skb until
dequeuing. This is mainly for compatibility reasons not to break some
strange configs because peeking is expected for non-work-conserving
parent qdiscs to query work-conserving child qdiscs.

This implementation requires using qdisc_dequeue_peeked() wrapper
instead of directly calling qdisc->dequeue() for all qdiscs ever
querried with qdisc->ops->peek() or qdisc_peek_dequeued().

From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

Just as a demonstration how easy adding a peek operation to the
work-conserving qdiscs actually is. It doesn't need to keep or change
any internal state in many cases thanks to the guarantee that the
packet will either be dequeued or, if another packet arrives, the
upper qdisc will immediately ->peek again to reevaluate the state.

(This is only slightly modified Patrick's patch.)

92651940ab pkt_sched: Add multiqueue scheduler support
This patch is intended to add a qdisc to support the new tx multiqueue
architecture by providing a band for each hardware queue.  By doing
this it is possible to support a different qdisc per physical hardware
queue.

This qdisc uses the skb->queue_mapping to select which band to place

subqueue is stopped to determine which band to dequeue the packet from.

5337407c67 warn: Turn the netdev timeout WARN_ON() into a WARN()
this patch turns the netdev timeout WARN_ON_ONCE() into a WARN_ONCE(),
so that the device and driver names are inside the warning message.
This helps automated tools like kerneloops.org to collect the data
and do statistics, as well as making it more likely that humans
cut-n-paste the important message as part of a bugreport.

23dd7bb09b hrtimer: convert net::sched_cbq to the new hrtimer apis
In order to be able to do range hrtimers we need to use accessor functions
to the "expire" member of the hrtimer struct.
This patch converts sched_cbq to these accessors.

2c10b32bf5 netlink: Remove compat API for nested attributes
Removes all _nested_compat() functions from the API. The prio qdisc
no longer requires them and netem has its own format anyway. Their
existance is only confusing.

Resend: Also remove the wrapper macro.

102396ae65 pkt_sched: Fix locking of qdisc_root with qdisc_root_sleeping_lock()
Use qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() instead of qdisc_root_lock() where
appropriate. The only difference is while dev is deactivated, when
currently we can use a sleeping qdisc with the lock of noop_qdisc.
This shouldn't be dangerous since after deactivation root lock could
be used only by gen_estimator code, but looks wrong anyway.

f6f9b93f16 pkt_sched: Fix gen_estimator locks
While passing a qdisc root lock to gen_new_estimator() and
gen_replace_estimator() dev could be deactivated or even before
grafting proper root qdisc as qdisc_sleeping (e.g. qdisc_create), so
using qdisc_root_lock() is not enough. This patch adds
qdisc_root_sleeping_lock() for this, plus additional checks, where
necessary.

f6e0b239a2 pkt_sched: Fix qdisc list locking
Since some qdiscs call qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() (so qdisc_lookup())
without rtnl_lock(), adding and deleting from a qdisc list needs
additional locking. This patch adds global spinlock qdisc_list_lock
and wrapper functions for modifying the list. It is considered as a
temporary solution until hfsc_dequeue(), netem_dequeue() and
tbf_dequeue() (or qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen()) are redone.

2540e0511e pkt_sched: Fix qdisc_watchdog() vs. dev_deactivate() race
dev_deactivate() can skip rescheduling of a qdisc by qdisc_watchdog()
or other timer calling netif_schedule() after dev_queue_deactivate().
We prevent this checking aliveness before scheduling the timer. Since
during deactivation the root qdisc is available only as qdisc_sleeping
additional accessor qdisc_root_sleeping() is created.
