2011-03-15xen network backend driverIan Campbell9-54/+2908
netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows. The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback. One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the future. Note that this driver depends on 2e820f58f7ad "xen/irq: implement bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge window: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for cross merging into the net branch.

2011-03-15bonding: Improve syslog message at device creation timePhil Oester1-1/+4
When the bonding module is loaded, it creates bond0 by default. Then, when attempting to create bond0, the following messages are printed to syslog: kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created... kernel: bonding: Bond creation failed. Which seems to indicate a problem, when in reality there is no problem. Since the actual error code is passed down from bond_create, make use of it to print a bit less ominous message: kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created... kernel: bond0 already exists.

2011-03-15bonding: Call netif_carrier_off after register_netdevicePhil Oester1-2/+2
Bringing up a bond interface with all network cables disconnected does not properly set the interface as DOWN because the call to netif_carrier_off occurs too early in bond_init. The call needs to occur after register_netdevice has set dev->reg_state to NETREG_REGISTERED, so that netif_carrier_off will trigger the call to linkwatch_fire_event.

2011-03-15bonding: Incorrect TX queue offsetPhil Oester1-2/+9
When packets come in from a device with >= 16 receive queues headed out a bonding interface, syslog gets filled with this: kernel: bond0 selects TX queue 16, but real number of TX queues is 16 because queue_mapping is offset by 1. Adjust return value to account for the offset. This is a revision of my earlier patch (which did not use the skb_rx_queue_* helpers - thanks to Ben for the suggestion). Andy submitted a similar patch which emits a pr_warning on invalid queue selection, but I believe the log spew is not useful. We can revisit that question in the future, but in the interim I believe fixing the core problem is worthwhile.

2011-03-15net_sched: fix ip_tos2prioDan Siemon1-1/+1
ECN support incorrectly maps ECN BESTEFFORT packets to TC_PRIO_FILLER (1) instead of TC_PRIO_BESTEFFORT (0) This means ECN enabled flows are placed in pfifo_fast/prio low priority band, giving ECN enabled flows [ECT(0) and CE codepoints] higher drop probabilities. This is rather unfortunate, given we would like ECN being more widely used.

Much of ip_vs_leave() is unnecessary if CONFIG_SYSCTL is undefined. I tried an approach of breaking the now #ifdef'ed portions out into a separate function.

2011-03-15ipvs: properly zero stats and ratesJulian Anastasov3-43/+69
Currently, the new percpu counters are not zeroed and the zero commands do not work as expected, we still show the old sum of percpu values. OTOH, we can not reset the percpu counters from user context without causing the incrementing to use old and bogus values. So, as Eric Dumazet suggested fix that by moving all overhead to stats reading in user context. Do not introduce overhead in timer context (estimator) and incrementing (packet handling in softirqs). The new ustats0 field holds the zero point for all counter values, the rates always use 0 as base value as before. When showing the values to user space just give the difference between counters and the base values. The only drawback is that percpu stats are not zeroed, they are accessible only from /proc and are new interface, so it should not be a compatibility problem as long as the sum stats are correct after zeroing.

The global tot_stats contains cpustats field just like the stats for dest and svc, so better use it to simplify the usage in estimation_timer. As tot_stats is registered as estimator we can remove the special ip_vs_read_cpu_stats call for tot_stats. Fix ip_vs_read_cpu_stats to be called under stats lock because it is still used as synchronization between estimation timer and user context (the stats readers). Also, make sure ip_vs_stats_percpu_show reads properly the u64 stats from user context.
