net: sched: RCU cls_tcindex

2014-09-13T16:30:26Z

Make cls_tcindex RCU safe. This patch addds a new RCU routine rcu_dereference_bh_rtnl() to check caller either holds the rcu read lock or RTNL. This is needed to handle the case where tcindex_lookup() is being called in both cases. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

bridge: fdb dumping takes a filter device

rtnetlink: wait for unregistering devices in rtnl_link_unregister()

2014-05-15T19:30:33Z

From: Cong Wang commit 50624c934db18ab90 (net: Delay default_device_exit_batch until no devices are unregistering) introduced rtnl_lock_unregistering() for default_device_exit_batch(). Same race could happen we when rmmod a driver which calls rtnl_link_unregister() as we call dev->destructor without rtnl lock. For long term, I think we should clean up the mess of netdev_run_todo() and net namespce exit code. Cc: Eric W. Biederman Cc: David S.

net: allow netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu with rtnl lock held

2013-12-18T05:19:08Z

It is useful to be able to walk all upper devices when bringing a device online where the RTNL lock is held. In this case it is safe to walk the all_adj_list because the RTNL lock is used to protect the write side as well. This patch adds a check to see if the rtnl lock is held before throwing a warning in netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu(). Also because we now have a call site for lockdep_rtnl_is_held() outside COFIG_LOCK_PROVING an inline definition returning 1 is needed. Similar to the rcu_read_lock_is_held().

net: fix rtnl notification in atomic context

net: generic fdb support for drivers without ndo_fdb_

2013-03-07T20:29:45Z

If the driver does not support the ndo_op use the generic handler for it. This should work in the majority of cases. Eventually the fdb_dflt_add call gets translated into a __dev_set_rx_mode() call which should handle hardware support for filtering via the IFF_UNICAST_FLT flag. Namely IFF_UNICAST_FLT indicates if the hardware can do unicast address filtering. If no support is available the device is put into promisc mode.

ixgbe: add setlink, getlink support to ixgbe and ixgbevf

2012-10-31T17:18:29Z

This adds support for the net device ops to manage the embedded hardware bridge on ixgbe devices. With this patch the bridge mode can be toggled between VEB and VEPA to support stacking macvlan devices or using the embedded switch without any SW component in 802.1Qbg/br environments. Additionally, this adds source address pruning to the ixgbevf driver to prune any frames sent back from a reflective relay on the switch. This is required because the existing hardware does not support this. Without it frames get pushed into the stack with its own src mac which is invalid per 802.1Qbg VEPA definition.
