2011-05-11cfg80211/nl80211: add interval attribute for scheduled scansLuciano Coelho
Introduce NL80211_ATTR_SCHED_SCAN_INTERVAL as a required attribute for NL80211_CMD_START_SCHED_SCAN. This value informs the driver at which intervals the scheduled scan cycles should be executed. Signed-off-by: Luciano Coelho <coelho@ti.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
2011-05-11mac80211: add support for HW scheduled scanLuciano Coelho
Implement support for HW scheduled scan. The mac80211 code doesn't perform scheduled scans itself, but calls the driver to start and stop scheduled scans. This patch also creates a trace event class to be used by drv_hw_scan and the new drv_sched_scan_start and drv_sched_stop functions, in order to avoid duplicate code.

2011-05-11cfg80211/nl80211: add support for scheduled scansLuciano Coelho
Implement new functionality for scheduled scan offload. With this feature we can scan automatically at certain intervals. The idea is that the hardware can perform scan automatically and filter on desired results without waking up the host unnecessarily. Add NL80211_CMD_START_SCHED_SCAN and NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN commands to the nl80211 interface. When results are available they are reported by NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_RESULTS events. The userspace is informed when the scheduled scan has stopped with a NL80211_CMD_SCHED_SCAN_STOPPED event, which can be triggered either by the driver or by a call to NL80211_CMD_STOP_SCHED_SCAN.

2011-05-11nl80211: Introduce NL80211_MESH_SETUP_USERSPACE_AMPEJavier Cardona
Introduce a new configuration option to support AMPE from userspace. Prior to this series we only supported authentication in userspace: an authentication daemon would authenticate peer candidates in userspace and hand them over to the kernel. From that point the mesh stack would take over and establish a peer link (Mesh Peering Management). These patches introduce support for Authenticated Mesh Peering Exchange in userspace. The userspace daemon implements the AMPE protocol and on successfull completion create mesh peers and install encryption keys.

2011-05-11Bluetooth: Double check sec req for pre 2.1 deviceWaldemar Rymarkiewicz
In case of pre v2.1 devices authentication request will return success immediately if the link key already exists without any authentication process. That means, it's not possible to re-authenticate the link if you already have combination key and for instance want to re-authenticate to get the high security (use 16 digit pin). Therefore, it's necessary to check security requirements on auth complete event to prevent not enough secure connection.

2011-05-10xfrm: Assign the inner mode output function to the dst entrySteffen Klassert
As it is, we assign the outer modes output function to the dst entry when we create the xfrm bundle. This leads to two problems on interfamily scenarios. We might insert ipv4 packets into ip6_fragment when called from xfrm6_output. The system crashes if we try to fragment an ipv4 packet with ip6_fragment. This issue was introduced with git commit ad0081e4 (ipv6: Fragment locally generated tunnel-mode IPSec6 packets as needed). The second issue is, that we might insert ipv4 packets in netfilter6 and vice versa on interfamily scenarios. With this patch we assign the inner mode output function to the dst entry when we create the xfrm bundle. So xfrm4_output/xfrm6_output from the inner mode is used and the right fragmentation and netfilter functions are called. We switch then to outer mode with the output_finish functions.

2011-05-10IPVS: init and cleanup restructuringHans Schillstrom
DESCRIPTION This patch tries to restore the initial init and cleanup sequences that was before namspace patch. Netns also requires action when net devices unregister which has never been implemented. I.e this patch also covers when a device moves into a network namespace, and has to be released. IMPLEMENTATION The number of calls to register_pernet_device have been reduced to one for the ip_vs.ko Schedulers still have their own calls. This patch adds a function __ip_vs_service_cleanup() and an enable flag for the netfilter hooks. The nf hooks will be enabled when the first service is loaded and never disabled again, except when a namespace exit starts.

When we fast path datagram sends to avoid locking by putting the inet_cork on the stack we use up lots of space that isn't necessary. This is because inet_cork contains a "struct flowi" which isn't used in these code paths. Split inet_cork to two parts, "inet_cork" and "inet_cork_full".

2011-05-05net: Add sendmmsg socket system callAnton Blanchard
This patch adds a multiple message send syscall and is the send version of the existing recvmmsg syscall. This is heavily based on the patch by Arnaldo that added recvmmsg. I wrote a microbenchmark to test the performance gains of using this new syscall: http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/sendmmsg_test.c The test was run on a ppc64 box with a 10 Gbit network card. The benchmark can send both UDP and RAW ethernet packets. 64B UDP batch pkts/sec 1 804570 2 872800 (+ 8 %) 4 916556 (+14 %) 8 939712 (+17 %) 16 952688 (+18 %) 32 956448 (+19 %) 64 964800 (+20 %) 64B raw socket batch pkts/sec 1 1201449 2 1350028 (+12 %) 4 1461416 (+22 %) 8 1513080 (+26 %) 16 1541216 (+28 %) 32 1553440 (+29 %) 64 1557888 (+30 %) We see a 20% improvement in throughput on UDP send and 30% on raw socket send.

2011-05-02net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacksEric Dumazet
Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks. I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations. This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow on a workload adding/removing network devices in background. All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does roughly a revert of commits : 1c2d670f366 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks 6313c1e0992 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed. It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu read section.

2011-04-28inet: add RCU protection to inet->optEric Dumazet
We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet->opt ip_options Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc->opt (struct ip_options), without any protection against another thread manipulating inet->opt. Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us. Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt). Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying. We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new ip_options_rcu structure.
