12 years agobatman-adv: roaming handling mechanism redesign
Antonio Quartulli [Sun, 23 Sep 2012 20:38:37 +0000 (22:38 +0200)]
batman-adv: roaming handling mechanism redesign

This patch allows clients to roam multiple times within the same
originator-interval.

To enable this new feature two key aspects that have been introduced:
1) packets are always directed to the node that was originally
serving the roamed client which will then re-route the data
to the correct destination at any point in time;
2) the client flags handling mechanism has been properly modified
in order to allow multiple roamings withinin the same orig-int.
Therefore flags are now set properly even in this scenario.

batman-adv: substitute tt_poss_change with a per-tt_entry flag

tt_poss_change is a node-wide flag which tells whether the node is in a roaming
state (a client recently moved to/away from it) in order to let it apply special
re-routing rules. However this flag does not give a clear idea of the current
state because it is not possible to understand *which client* is actually
involved in the roaming. For this reason a better approach has been chosen:
instead of using a node-wide variable, the roaming state is now given by a
per-tt_entry ROAM flag which, in case of packet coming through the node, tells
the node whether the real destination is in roaming state or not.

With this flag change, batadv_check_unicast_ttvn() has also been rearranged in
order to better fit the new re-routing logic and to be much more readable.

12 years agogianfar: ethernet vanishes after restoring from hibernation
Wang Dongsheng [Fri, 9 Nov 2012 04:43:51 +0000 (04:43 +0000)]
gianfar: ethernet vanishes after restoring from hibernation

If a gianfar ethernet device is down prior to hibernating a
system, it will no longer be present upon system restore.

For example:

~# ifconfig eth0 down
~# echo disk > /sys/power/state

  <trigger a restore from hibernation>

~# ifconfig eth0 up
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device

This happens because the restore function bails out early upon
finding devices that were not up at hibernation.  In doing so,
it never gets to the netif_device_attach call at the end of
the restore function.  Adding the netif_device_attach as done
here also makes the gfar_restore code consistent with what is
done in the gfar_resume code.

pkt_sched: enable QFQ to support TSO/GSO

If the max packet size for some class (configured through tc) is
violated by the actual size of the packets of that class, then QFQ
would not schedule classes correctly, and the data structures
implementing the bucket lists may get corrupted. This problem occurs
with TSO/GSO even if the max packet size is set to the MTU, and is,
e.g., the cause of the failure reported in [1]. Two patches have been
proposed to solve this problem in [2], one of them is a preliminary
version of this patch.

This patch addresses the above issues by: 1) setting QFQ parameters to
proper values for supporting TSO/GSO (in particular, setting the
maximum possible packet size to 64KB), 2) automatically increasing the
max packet size for a class, lmax, when a packet with a larger size
than the current value of lmax arrives.

The drawback of the first point is that the maximum weight for a class
is now limited to 4096, which is equal to 1/16 of the maximum weight
sum.

Finally, this patch also forcibly caps the timestamps of a class if
they are too high to be stored in the bucket list. This capping, taken
from QFQ+ [3], handles the unfrequent case described in the comment to
the function slot_insert.
