sctp: signal sk_data_ready earlier on data chunks reception

2016-05-02T01:06:10Z

Dave Miller pointed out that fb586f25300f ("sctp: delay calls to sk_data_ready() as much as possible") may insert latency specially if the receiving application is running on another CPU and that it would be better if we signalled as early as possible. This patch thus basically inverts the logic on fb586f25300f and signals it as early as possible, similar to what we had before.

net: snmp: kill STATS_BH macros

2016-04-28T02:48:25Z

There is nothing related to BH in SNMP counters anymore, since linux-3.0. Rename helpers to use __ prefix instead of _BH prefix, for contexts where preemption is disabled. This more closely matches convention used to update percpu variables. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: snmp: kill various STATS_USER() helpers

2016-04-28T02:48:22Z

In the old days (before linux-3.0), SNMP counters were duplicated, one for user context, and one for BH context. After commit 8f0ea0fe3a03 ("snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%") we have a single copy, and what really matters is preemption being enabled or disabled, since we use this_cpu_inc() or __this_cpu_inc() respectively. We therefore kill SNMP_INC_STATS_USER(), SNMP_ADD_STATS_USER(), NET_INC_STATS_USER(), NET_ADD_STATS_USER(), SCTP_INC_STATS_USER(), SNMP_INC_STATS64_USER(), SNMP_ADD_STATS64_USER(), TCP_ADD_STATS_USER(), UDP_INC_STATS_USER(), UDP6_INC_STATS_USER(), and XFRM_INC_STATS_USER() Following patches will rename __BH helpers to make clear their usage is not tied to BH being disabled.

2016-04-23T22:51:33Z

Conflicts were two cases of simple overlapping changes, nothing serious. In the UDP case, we need to add a hlist_add_tail_rcu() to linux/rculist.h, because we've moved UDP socket handling away from using nulls lists. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sctp: export some apis or variables for sctp_diag and reuse some for proc

2016-04-15T21:29:36Z

For some main variables in sctp.ko, we couldn't export it to other modules, so we have to define some api to access them. It will include sctp transport and endpoint's traversal. There are some transport traversal functions for sctp_diag, we can also use it for sctp_proc. cause they have the similar situation to traversal transport. v2->v3: - rhashtable_walk_init need the parameter gfp, because of recent upstrem update Signed-off-by: Xin Long Signed-off-by: David S.

sctp: add sctp_info dump api for sctp_diag

2016-04-15T21:29:35Z

sctp_diag will dump some important details of sctp's assoc or ep, we use sctp_info to describe them, sctp_get_sctp_info to get them, and export it to sctp_diag.ko. v2->v3: - we will not use list_for_each_safe in sctp_get_sctp_info, cause all the callers of it will use lock_sock. - fix the holes in struct sctp_info with __reserved* field. because sctp_diag is a new feature, and sctp_info is just for now, it may be changed in the future.

sctp: simplify sk_receive_queue locking

2016-04-15T21:22:20Z

SCTP already serializes access to rcvbuf through its sock lock: sctp_recvmsg takes it right in the start and release at the end, while rx path will also take the lock before doing any socket processing. On sctp_rcv() it will check if there is an user using the socket and, if there is, it will queue incoming packets to the backlog. The backlog processing will do the same. Even timers will do such check and re-schedule if an user is using the socket. Simplifying this will allow us to remove sctp_skb_list_tail and get ride of some expensive lockings. The lists that it is used on are also mangled with functions like __skb_queue_tail and __skb_unlink in the same context, like on sctp_ulpq_tail_event() and sctp_clear_pd(). sctp_close() will also purge those while using only the sock lock. Therefore the lockings performed by sctp_skb_list_tail() are not necessary. This patch removes this function and replaces its calls with just skb_queue_splice_tail_init() instead. The biggest gain is at sctp_ulpq_tail_event(), because the events always contain a list, even if it's queueing a single skb and this was triggering expensive calls to spin_lock_irqsave/_irqrestore for every data chunk received. As SCTP will deliver each data chunk on a corresponding recvmsg, the more effective the change will be.

sctp: delay calls to sk_data_ready() as much as possible

2016-04-14T03:04:44Z

Currently processing of multiple chunks in a single SCTP packet leads to multiple calls to sk_data_ready, causing multiple wake up signals which are costy and doesn't make it wake up any faster. With this patch it will note that the wake up is pending and will do it before leaving the state machine interpreter, latest place possible to do it realiably and cleanly. Note that sk_data_ready events are not dependent on asocs, unlike waking up writers. v2: series re-checked v3: use local vars to cleanup the code, suggested by Jakub Sitnicki Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner Signed-off-by: David S.

sctp: compress bit-wide flags to a bitfield on sctp_sock

2016-04-14T03:04:44Z

It wastes space and gets worse as we add new flags, so convert bit-wide flags to a bitfield. Currently it already saves 4 bytes in sctp_sock, which are left as holes in it for now. The whole struct needs packing, which should be done in another patch. Note that do_auto_asconf cannot be merged, as explained in the comment before it.
