Bruno Randolf 03417bc605 ath5k: review and add comments for descriptors
I carefully reviewed desh.h against the HAL sources. Added comments and made
differences between 5210, 5211 and 5212 more clear by adding _521x to the
defines which are specific to that chipset. Renamed some defines. No functional
changes.

Use direct function calls for ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc() and
ath5k_hw_setup_mrr_tx_desc() instead of a function pointer which always pointed
to the same function in the case of ath5k_hw_setup_rx_desc() and which is
easily unified in the case of ath5k_hw_setup_mrr_tx_desc().

Also simplify the initialization function for the remaining function pointers.

Bruno Randolf 02a78b42f8 ath5k: move checks and stats into new function
Create a new function ath5k_receive_frame_ok() which checks for errors, updates
error statistics and tells us if we want to further "receive" this frame or
not. This way we can avoid a goto and have a cleaner separation between buffer

Eric Dumazet 317fe0e6c5 inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structures
Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches.

Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes.

This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields,
that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer.
rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing.

Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while.

We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation.

Eric Dumazet 5933dd2f02 net: NET_SKB_PAD should depend on L1_CACHE_BYTES
In old kernels, NET_SKB_PAD was defined to 16.

Then commit d6301d3dd1 (net: Increase default NET_SKB_PAD to 32), and
commit 18e8c134f4 (net: Increase NET_SKB_PAD to 64 bytes) increased it
to 64.

While first patch was governed by network stack needs, second was more
driven by performance issues on current hardware. Real intent was to
align data on a cache line boundary.

So use max(32, L1_CACHE_BYTES) instead of 64, to be more generic.

Remove microblaze and powerpc own NET_SKB_PAD definitions.

Thanks to Alexander Duyck and David Miller for their comments.

Sonic Zhang 4fcc3d3409 netdev:bfin_mac: reclaim and free tx skb as soon as possible after transfer
SKBs hold onto resources that can't be held indefinitely, such as TCP
socket references and netfilter conntrack state.  So if a packet is left
in TX ring for a long time, there might be a TCP socket that cannot be
closed and freed up.

Current blackfin EMAC driver always reclaim and free used tx skbs in future
transfers. The problem is that future transfer may not come as soon as
possible. This patch start a timer after transfer to reclaim and free skb.
There is nearly no performance drop with this patch.

TX interrupt is not enabled because of a strange behavior of the Blackfin EMAC.
If EMAC TX transfer control is turned on, endless TX interrupts are triggered
no matter if TX DMA is enabled or not. Since DMA walks down the ring automatically,
TX transfer control can't be turned off in the middle. The only way is to disable
TX interrupt completely.

Eric Dumazet aa1039e73c inetpeer: RCU conversion
inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock.

It's possible to make most lookups use RCU

1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer

2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic
lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup().

3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is
needed in case we fall in a loop.

4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert.

5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take
last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase
refcount, even while we hold peers.lock.

6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that
lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash.

7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup.
   Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a
concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form.
   If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed
again.

8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock

9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because
rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 ->
128 bytes)
In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu
field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts &
tcp_ts_stamp. These fields being manipulated only with refcnt > 0.

In case the frame wasn't sent succesful the number of retries is 7 and if
a rate index <7 was used the previous code reported negative rate indexes
which were then ignored by the rate control algorithm and mac80211.

Instead, report the remaining number of retries to have happened with
the lowest rate (index 0). This should give the rate control algorithm
slightly more accurate information about the used tx rates/retries.

Helmut Schaa 3f2bee2499 rt2x00: provide mac80211 a suitable max_rates value
Set up max_rates and max_rate_tries with suitable values even if we do not
support the whole functionality.

As rt2800 has a global fallback table we cannot specify more then one tx rate
per frame but since the hw will try several different rates (based on the
fallback table) we should still initialize max_rates to the maximum number of
rates we are going to try. Otherwise mac80211 will truncate our reported tx
rates and the rc algortihm will end up with incorrect data choosing unsuitable
rates for tx.

This improves throughput on rt2800 devices considerable.
