J. Bruce Fields 521c2a43b2 [SUNRPC]: fix rpc debugging
Commit baa3a2a0d2, by removing initialization
of the ctl_name field, broke this conditional, preventing the display of
rpc_tasks that you previously got when turning on rpc debugging.

Jean Delvare 0ccfe61803 [TCP]: Saner thash_entries default with much memory.
On systems with a very large amount of memory, the heuristics in
alloc_large_system_hash() result in a very large TCP established hash
table: 16 millions of entries for a 128 GB ia64 system. This makes
reading from /proc/net/tcp pretty slow (well over a second) and as a
result netstat is slow on these machines. I know that /proc/net/tcp is
deprecated in favor of tcp_diag, however at the moment netstat only
knows of the former.

I am skeptical that such a large TCP established hash is often needed.
Just because a system has a lot of memory doesn't imply that it will
have several millions of concurrent TCP connections. Thus I believe
that we should put an arbitrary high limit to the size of the TCP
established hash by default. Users who really need a bigger hash can
always use the thash_entries boot parameter to get more.

I propose 2 millions of entries as the arbitrary high limit. This
makes /proc/net/tcp reasonably fast on the system in question (0.2 s)
while being still large enough for me to be confident that network
performance won't suffer.

This is just one way to limit the hash size, there are others; I am not
familiar enough with the TCP code to decide which is best. Thus, I
would welcome the proposals of alternatives.

[ 2 million is still too large, thus I've modified the limit in the
  change to be '512 * 1024'. -DaveM ]

Andy Gospodarek 5c81833c2f [IPVS]: use proper timeout instead of fixed value
Instead of using the default timeout of 3 minutes, this uses the timeout
specific to the protocol used for the connection. The 3 minute timeout
seems somewhat arbitrary (though I know it is used other places in the
ipvs code) and when failing over it would be much nicer to use one of
the configured timeout values.

Eric W. Biederman 2b008b0a8e [NET]: Marking struct pernet_operations __net_initdata was inappropriate
It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section.
We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys.
Which doesn't happen until module unload.

So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding
  it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked
  list and does horrible things for linked insert.

So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded
for modules.

Gerrit Renker 24c667db59 [CCID2/3]: Initialisation assignments of 0 are redundant
Assigning initial values of `0' is redundant when loading a new CCID structure,
since in net/dccp/ccid.c the entire CCID structure is zeroed out prior to
initialisation in ccid_new():

    	struct ccid {
    		struct ccid_operations *ccid_ops;
    		char		       ccid_priv[0];
    	};

    	// ...
    	if (rx) {
    		memset(ccid + 1, 0, ccid_ops->ccid_hc_rx_obj_size);
    		if (ccid->ccid_ops->ccid_hc_rx_init != NULL &&
    		    ccid->ccid_ops->ccid_hc_rx_init(ccid, sk) != 0)
    			goto out_free_ccid;
    	} else {
    		memset(ccid + 1, 0, ccid_ops->ccid_hc_tx_obj_size);
    		/* analogous to the rx case */
    	}

This patch therefore removes the redundant assignments. Thanks to Arnaldo for

This adds support for converting the 11 currently defined Reset codes into system
error numbers, which are stored in sk_err for further interpretation.

This makes the externally visible API behaviour similar to TCP, since a client
connecting to a non-existing port will experience ECONNREFUSED.

* Code 0, Unspecified, is interpreted as non-error (0);
* Code 1, Closed (normal termination), also maps into 0;
* Code 2, Aborted, maps into "Connection reset by peer" (ECONNRESET);
* Code 3, No Connection and
  Code 7, Connection Refused, map into "Connection refused" (ECONNREFUSED);
* Code 4, Packet Error, maps into "No message of desired type" (ENOMSG);
* Code 5, Option Error, maps into "Illegal byte sequence" (EILSEQ);
* Code 6, Mandatory Error, maps into "Operation not supported on transport endpoint" (EOPNOTSUPP);
* Code 8, Bad Service Code, maps into "Invalid request code" (EBADRQC);
* Code 9, Too Busy, maps into "Too many users" (EUSERS);
* Code 10, Bad Init Cookie, maps into "Invalid request descriptor" (EBADR);
* Code 11, Aggression Penalty, maps into "Quota exceeded" (EDQUOT)
  which makes sense in terms of using more than the `fair share' of bandwidth.

Gerrit Renker 1238d0873b [DCCP]: One more exemption from full sequence number checks
This fixes the following problem: client connects to peer which has no DCCP
enabled or loaded; ICMP error messages ("Protocol Unavailable") can be seen
on the wire, but the application hangs. Reason: ICMP packets don't get through
to dccp_v4_err.

When reporting errors, a sequence number check is made for the DCCP packet
that had caused an ICMP error to arrive.
Such checks can not be made if the socket is in state LISTEN, RESPOND (which
in the implementation is the same as LISTEN), or REQUEST, since update_gsr()
has not been called in these states, hence the sequence window is 0..0.

This patch fixes the problem by adding the REQUEST state as another exemption
to the window check. The error reporting now works as expected on connecting.

Gerrit Renker fde20105f3 [DCCP]: Retrieve packet sequence number for error reporting
This fixes a problem when analysing erroneous packets in dccp_v{4,6}_err:
* dccp_hdr_seq currently takes an skb
* however, the transport headers in the skb are shifted, due to the
  preceding IPv4/v6 header.
Fixed for v4 and v6 by changing dccp_hdr_seq to take a struct dccp_hdr as
argument. Verified that the correct sequence number is now reported in the
error handler.

Jens Axboe 642f149031 SG: Change sg_set_page() to take length and offset argument
Most drivers need to set length and offset as well, so may as well fold
those three lines into one.

Add sg_assign_page() for those two locations that only needed to set
the page, where the offset/length is set outside of the function context.

Pavel Emelyanov 03cf786c4e [IPV4]: Explicitly call fib_get_table() in fib_frontend.c
In case the "multiple tables" config option is y, the ip_fib_local_table
is not a variable, but a macro, that calls fib_get_table(RT_TABLE_LOCAL).

Some code uses this "variable" *3* times in one place, thus implicitly
making 3 calls. Fix it.
