This patch removes an empty ifdef from inet_frag_intern() in net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c. commit b67bfe0d42cac56c512dd5da4b1b347a23f4b70a (hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators) removed hlist from net/ipv4/inet_fragment.c, but did not remove the enclosing ifdef command, which is now empty.

2013-06-19htb: refactor struct htb_sched fields for performanceEric Dumazet
htb_sched structures are big, and source of false sharing on SMP. Every time a packet is queued or dequeue, many cache lines must be touched because structures are not lay out properly. By carefully splitting htb_sched in two parts, and define sub structures to increase data locality, we can improve performance dramatically on SMP. New htb_prio structure can also be used in htb_class to increase data locality. I got 26 % performance increase on a 24 threads machine, with 200 concurrent netperf in TCP_RR mode, using a HTB hierarchy of 4 classes.

2013-06-19tcp: introduce a per-route knob for quick ackCong Wang
In previous discussions, I tried to find some reasonable heuristics for delayed ACK, however this seems not possible, according to Eric: "ACKS might also be delayed because of bidirectional traffic, and is more controlled by the application response time. TCP stack can not easily estimate it." "ACK can be incredibly useful to recover from losses in a short time. The vast majority of TCP sessions are small lived, and we send one ACK per received segment anyway at beginning or retransmits to let the sender smoothly increase its cwnd, so an auto-tuning facility wont help them that much." and according to David: "ACKs are the only information we have to detect loss. And, for the same reasons that TCP VEGAS is fundamentally broken, we cannot measure the pipe or some other receiver-side-visible piece of information to determine when it's "safe" to stretch ACK. And even if it's "safe", we should not do it so that losses are accurately detected and we don't spuriously retransmit. The only way to know when the bandwidth increases is to "test" it, by sending more and more packets until drops happen. That's why all successful congestion control algorithms must operate on explicited tested pieces of information. Similarly, it's not really possible to universally know if it's safe to stretch ACK or not." It still makes sense to enable or disable quick ack mode like what TCP_QUICK_ACK does. Similar to TCP_QUICK_ACK option, but for people who can't modify the source code and still wants to control TCP delayed ACK behavior. As David suggested, this should belong to per-path scope, since different pathes may want different behaviors.

2013-06-19net: sock: adapt SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUFDaniel Borkmann
The current situation is that SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF is 2048 + sizeof(struct sk_buff)) while SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF is 2048. Since in both cases, skb->truesize is used for sk_{r,w}mem_alloc accounting, we should have both sizes adjusted via defining a TCP_SKB_MIN_TRUESIZE. Further, as Eric Dumazet points out, the minimal skb truesize in transmit path is SKB_TRUESIZE(2048) after commit f07d960df33c5 ("tcp: avoid frag allocation for small frames"), and tcp_sendmsg() tries to limit skb size to half the congestion window, meaning we try to build two skbs at minimum. Thus, having SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF as 2048 can hit a small regression for some applications setting to low SO_SNDBUF / SO_RCVBUF. Note that we define a TCP_SKB_MIN_TRUESIZE, because SKB_TRUESIZE(2048) adds SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)), but in case of TCP skbs, the skb_shared_info is part of the 2048 bytes allocation for skb->head. The minor adaption in sk_stream_moderate_sndbuf() is to silence a warning by using a typed max macro, as similarly done in SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF occurences, that would appear otherwise.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-06-19nl80211: fix attrbuf access race by allocating a separate oneJohannes Berg
Since my commit 3713b4e364 ("nl80211: allow splitting wiphy information in dumps"), nl80211_dump_wiphy() uses the global nl80211_fam.attrbuf for parsing the incoming data. This wouldn't be a problem if it only did so on the first dump iteration which is locked against other commands in generic netlink, but due to space constraints in cb->args (the needed state doesn't fit) I decided to always parse the original message. That's racy though since nl80211_fam.attrbuf could be used by some other parsing in generic netlink concurrently. For now, fix this by allocating a separate parse buffer (it's a bit too big for the stack, currently 1448 bytes on 64-bit). For -next, I'll change the code to parse into the global buffer in the first round only and then allocate a smaller buffer to keep the data in cb->args.
