2013-01-23soreuseport: UDP/IPv6 implementationTom Herbert
Motivation for soreuseport would be something like a DNS server.  An alternative would be to recv on the same socket from multiple threads. As in the case of TCP, the load across these threads tends to be disproportionate and we also see a lot of contection on the socket lock. Note that SO_REUSEADDR already allows multiple UDP sockets to bind to the same port, however there is no provision to prevent hijacking and nothing to distribute packets across all the sockets sharing the same bound port.  This patch does not change the semantics of SO_REUSEADDR, but provides usable functionality of it for unicast.

2013-01-23soreuseport: TCP/IPv6 implementationTom Herbert
Motivation for soreuseport would be something like a web server binding to port 80 running with multiple threads, where each thread might have it's own listener socket. This could be done as an alternative to other models: 1) have one listener thread which dispatches completed connections to workers. 2) accept on a single listener socket from multiple threads. In case #1 the listener thread can easily become the bottleneck with high connection turn-over rate. In case #2, the proportion of connections accepted per thread tends to be uneven under high connection load (assuming simple event loop: while (1) { accept(); process() }, wakeup does not promote fairness among the sockets. We have seen the disproportion to be as high as 3:1 ratio between thread accepting most connections and the one accepting the fewest. With so_reusport the distribution is uniform.

2013-01-22neigh: Keep neighbour cache entries if number of them is small enough.YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明
Since we have removed NCE (Neighbour Cache Entry) reference from routing entries, the only refcnt holders of an NCE are its timer (if running) and its owner table, in usual cases. As a result, neigh_periodic_work() purges NCEs over and over again even for gateways. It does not make sense to purge entries, if number of them is very small, so keep them. The minimum number of entries to keep is specified by gc_thresh1. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-01-21dsa: use an unique and non conflicting bus name for the slave MII busFlorian Fainelli
The slave MII bus registered by the DSA code is using the parent MII bus as part of its name (ds->master_mii_bus_id), in case the parent MII bus name is already 16 characters long (such as d0072004.mdio-mi) we will get the following WARN_ON in dsa_switch_setup() when calling mdiobus_register(): [ 79.088782] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 79.093448] WARNING: at fs/sysfs/dir.c:536 sysfs_add_one+0x80/0xa0() [ 79.099831] sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/mdio_bus/d0072004.mdio-mi' This is a genuine warning, because the DSA slave MII bus will also be named d0072004.mdio-mi, and since MII_BUS_ID_SIZE is 17 characters long (with null-terminator) the following will truncate the slave MII bus id: snprintf(ds->slave_mii_bus->id, MII_BUS_ID_SIZE, "%s-%d:%.2x", ds->master_mii_bus->id, ds->pd->sw_addr); Fix this by using dsa-<switch index->:<sw_add> which is guaranteed to be unique.

2013-01-21mcast: add multicast proxy support (IPv4 and IPv6)Nicolas Dichtel
This patch add the support of proxy multicast, ie being able to build a static multicast tree. It adds the support of (*,*) and (*,G) entries. The user should define an (*,*) entry which is not used for real forwarding. This entry defines the upstream in iif and contains all interfaces from the static tree in its oifs. It will be used to forward packet upstream when they come from an interface belonging to the static tree. Hence, the user should define (*,G) entries to build its static tree. Note that upstream interface must be part of oifs: packets are sent to all oifs interfaces except the input interface. This ensures to always join the whole static tree, even if the packet is not coming from the upstream interface.
