2010-02-28blkdev: fix merge_bvec_fn return value checksDmitry Monakhov1-2/+2
merge_bvec_fn() returns bvec->bv_len on success. So we have to check against this value. But in case of fs_optimization merge we compare with wrong value. This patch must be included in b428cd6da7e6559aca69aa2e3a526037d3f20403 But accidentally i've forgot to add this in the initial patch. To make things straight let's replace all such checks. In fact this makes code easy to understand. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>
2010-02-28cfq-iosched: requests "in flight" vs "in driver" clarificationCorrado Zoccolo1-26/+18
Counters for requests "in flight" and "in driver" are used asymmetrically in cfq_may_dispatch, and have slightly different meaning. We split the rq_in_flight counter (was sync_flight) to count both sync and async requests, in order to use this one, which is more accurate in some corner cases. The rq_in_driver counter is coalesced, since individual sync/async counts are not used any more. Signed-off-by: Corrado Zoccolo <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <[email protected]>

2010-02-28cciss: Fix problem with scatter gather elements in the scsi half of the driverStephen M. Cameron1-26/+59
cciss: Fix problem with scatter gather elements in the scsi half of the driver When support for more than 31 scatter gather elements was added to the block half of the driver, the SCSI half of the driver was not addressed, and the bump from 31 to 32 scatter gather elements in the command block itself (not chained) actually broke the SCSI half of the driver, so that any transfer requiring 32 scatter gather elements wouldn't work.

cciss: fix scatter gather chain block dma direction kludge The data direction for the chained block of scatter gather elements should always be PCI_DMA_TODEVICE, but was mistakenly set to the direction of the data transfer, then a kludge to fix it was added, in which pci_dma_sync_single_for_device or pci_dma_sync_single_for_cpu was called.

2010-02-28cfq-iosched: rethink seeky detection for SSDsCorrado Zoccolo1-1/+6
CFQ currently applies the same logic of detecting seeky queues and grouping them together for rotational disks as well as SSDs. For SSDs, the time to complete a request doesn't depend on the request location, but only on the size. This patch therefore changes the criterion to group queues by request size in case of SSDs, in order to achieve better fairness.

2010-02-28cfq-iosched: rework seeky detectionCorrado Zoccolo1-40/+14
Current seeky detection is based on average seek lenght. This is suboptimal, since the average will not distinguish between: * a process doing medium sized seeks * a process doing some sequential requests interleaved with larger seeks and even a medium seek can take lot of time, if the requested sector happens to be behind the disk head in the rotation (50% probability). Therefore, we change the seeky queue detection to work as follows: * each request can be classified as sequential if it is very close to the current head position, i.e. it is likely in the disk cache (disks usually read more data than requested, and put it in cache for subsequent reads). Otherwise, the request is classified as seeky. * an history window of the last 32 requests is kept, storing the classification result. * A queue is marked as seeky if more than 1/8 of the last 32 requests were seeky. This patch fixes a regression reported by Yanmin, on mmap 64k random reads.

2010-02-28ethtool: do not set some flags, if others failedJeff Garzik1-4/+6
NETIF_F_NTUPLE flag setting introduced a bug: non-ntuple flags like LRO may be successfully set, before ioctl(2) returns failure to userspace. The set-flags operation should be all-or-none, rather than leaving things in an inconsistent state prior to reporting failure to userspace.

2010-02-28ipoib: returned back addrlen check for mc addressesJiri Pirko1-1/+5
Apparently bogus mc address can break IPOIB multicast processing. Therefore returning the check for addrlen back until this is resolved in bonding (I don't see any other point from where mc address with non-dev->addr_len length can came from).

2010-02-28netlink: Adding inode field to /proc/net/netlinkMasatake YAMATO1-3/+4
The Inode field in /proc/net/{tcp,udp,packet,raw,...} is useful to know the types of file descriptors associated to a process. Actually lsof utility uses the field. Unfortunately, unlike /proc/net/{tcp,udp,packet,raw,...}, /proc/net/netlink doesn't have the field. This patch adds the field to /proc/net/netlink.

2010-02-28bridge: Add multicast count/interval sysfs entriesHerbert Xu1-0/+203
This patch allows the user to the IGMP parameters related to the snooping function of the bridge. This includes various time values and retransmission limits. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
2010-02-28bridge: Add hash elasticity/max sysfs entriesHerbert Xu3-0/+81
This patch allows the user to control the hash elasticity/max parameters. The elasticity setting does not take effect until the next new multicast group is added. At which point it is checked and if after rehashing it still can't be satisfied then snooping will be disabled. The max setting on the other hand takes effect immediately. It must be a power of two and cannot be set to a value less than the current number of multicast group entries. This is the only way to shrink the multicast hash.

2010-02-28bridge: Add multicast_snooping sysfs toggleHerbert Xu3-5/+75
This patch allows the user to disable IGMP snooping completely through a sysfs toggle. It also allows the user to reenable snooping when it has been automatically disabled due to hash collisions. If the collisions have not been resolved however the system will refuse to reenable snooping. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <[email protected]>
2010-02-28bridge: Add multicast_router sysfs entriesHerbert Xu4-14/+133
This patch allows the user to forcibly enable/disable ports as having multicast routers attached. A port with a multicast router will receive all multicast traffic. The value 0 disables it completely. The default is 1 which lets the system automatically detect the presence of routers (currently this is limited to picking up queries), and 2 means that the port will always receive all multicast traffic.
