The approach\nthere is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in\norder to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses.\nThis approach suffers from 2 drawbacks:\n\n*. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise\n dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat)\n and sysconfig (Suse) doesn\u0027t act the same in this matter. \n*. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing\n table, which might be unnecessary.\n\nThe fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast\naddresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.\n \nReported-by: Jason Gunthorpe \u003cjgunthorpe@obsidianresearch.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Moni Shoua \u003cmonis@voltaire.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.

An\nSRCU notifier chain is much like a blocking notifier chain, in that it must\nbe called in process context and its callout routines are allowed to sleep.\n The difference is that the chain\u0027s links are protected by the SRCU\nmechanism rather than by an rw-semaphore, so calling the chain has\nextremely low overhead: no memory barriers and no cache-line bouncing. On\nthe other hand, unregistering from the chain is expensive and the chain\nhead requires special runtime initialization (plus cleanup if it is to be\ndeallocated).\n\nSRCU notifiers are appropriate for notifiers that will be called very\nfrequently and for which unregistration occurs very seldom. The proposed\n\"task notifier\" scheme qualifies, as may some of the network notifiers.\n\nSigned-off-by: Alan Stern \u003cstern@rowland.harvard.edu\u003e\nAcked-by: Paul E.

There is no\nprotection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the\nchain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread:\n\n http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d113018709002036\u0026w\u003d2\n\nWe noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage\nclasses:\n\n\t\"Blocking\" chains are always called from a process context\n\tand the callout routines are allowed to sleep;\n\n\t\"Atomic\" chains can be called from an atomic context and\n\tthe callout routines are not allowed to sleep.\n\nWe decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore\nthis set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking\nnotifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for \"raw\" notifiers (which is\nreally just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are\nused for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for\nregistration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are\nexplained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in\nkernel/sys.c.\n\nWith atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain\nlinks will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by\nentries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no\nguarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The\nidea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and\nblocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to\nhandle these things in their own way.)\n\nThere are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For\natomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in\na process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a\ncallout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister\nentries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code\nhad to be changed to avoid it.)\n\nSince atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use\nspinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost\nentirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much\nless frequent that calling a chain.\n\nHere is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None\nof them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.\n\n ATOMIC CHAINS\n -------------\narch/i386/kernel/traps.c:\t\ti386die_chain\narch/ia64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tia64die_chain\narch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:\t\tpowerpc_die_chain\narch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tsparc64die_chain\narch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c:\t\tdie_chain\ndrivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c:\txaction_notifier_list\nkernel/panic.c:\t\t\t\tpanic_notifier_list\nkernel/profile.c:\t\t\ttask_free_notifier\nnet/bluetooth/hci_core.c:\t\thci_notifier\nnet/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:\tip_conntrack_chain\nnet/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c:\tip_conntrack_expect_chain\nnet/ipv6/addrconf.c:\t\t\tinet6addr_chain\nnet/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:\tnf_conntrack_chain\nnet/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c:\tnf_conntrack_expect_chain\nnet/netlink/af_netlink.c:\t\tnetlink_chain\n\n BLOCKING CHAINS\n ---------------\narch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c:\tpSeries_reconfig_chain\narch/s390/kernel/process.c:\t\tidle_chain\narch/x86_64/kernel/process.c\t\tidle_notifier\ndrivers/base/memory.c:\t\t\tmemory_chain\ndrivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c\t\tcpufreq_policy_notifier_list\ndrivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c\t\tcpufreq_transition_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/adb.c:\t\tadb_client_list\ndrivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c\t\tsleep_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c\t\tsleep_notifier_list\ndrivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c\twf_client_list\ndrivers/usb/core/notify.c\t\tusb_notifier_list\ndrivers/video/fbmem.c\t\t\tfb_notifier_list\nkernel/cpu.c\t\t\t\tcpu_chain\nkernel/module.c\t\t\t\tmodule_notify_list\nkernel/profile.c\t\t\tmunmap_notifier\nkernel/profile.c\t\t\ttask_exit_notifier\nkernel/sys.c\t\t\t\treboot_notifier_list\nnet/core/dev.c\t\t\t\tnetdev_chain\nnet/decnet/dn_dev.c:\t\t\tdnaddr_chain\nnet/ipv4/devinet.c:\t\t\tinetaddr_chain\n\nIt\u0027s possible that some of these classifications are wrong. If they are,\nplease let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that\ngets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking\nused for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.\n(However, if the chain\u0027s callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be\natomic.)\n\nThe patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating\nmaterial written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew\nMorton.\n\n[jes@sgi.com: restructure the notifier chain initialization macros]\nSigned-off-by: Alan Stern \u003cstern@rowland.harvard.edu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman \u003csekharan@us.ibm.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Jes Sorensen \u003cjes@sgi.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "d8a33ac435c43a1a404b2ec560ef1d1536710c36", "tree": "04359c09e0731e9c33a8c2dd80cc69404e0dde60", "parents": [ "45b30105e7231b70bb855923dbca443ee3ba44c3" ], "author": { "name": "Stephen Hemminger", "email": "shemminger@osdl.org", "time": "Sun May 29 14:13:47 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "David S.
