* kernel: remove full cache flush in fuse_copy_do() for MIPSHauke Mehrtens2016-06-261-32/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch was introduced in commit r16412 for the brcm47xx target only and then moved to generic in commit r32395. It was initially added because of ticket #5186 and should fix some problems with fuse file systems and MIPS caches. The commit comment in r32395 says that this a generic problem in MIPS CPUs, but does not name any specifics about that. There was a fix added to kernel 2.6.21 in commit commit 7575a49f20 "[MIPS] Implement flush_anon_page()." that should fix this problem, but that was already available before both commits were done to OpenWrt. I just tested fuse with ntfs.3g without this patch on a BCM4704 (BMIPS3300 V0.6) SoC and haven't seen any problems. Someone reported that removing this patch improves some fuse operations by 5 times on some modern MIPS cores. My test was only a simple "dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/zero bs=5000" to an USB stick. This patch removes the patch to OpenWrt, because I assume that it is not needed any more and Felix, the orginal author, also thinks so. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
* squashfs4: use upstream xz compression header formatHauke Mehrtens2016-06-221-25/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the upstream kernel and the upstream squashfs4 tools the xz compression header looks the following: struct disk_comp_opts { __le32 dictionary_size; __le32 flags; }; We added some other members and also moved some existing members. Place the members which are already in upstream header at the same position as in that kernel and add our own at the end. The kernel should not have a problem when there are some additional members and just ignore them. Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>

* kernel: fq_codel match flows_cnt to limit sizingKevin Darbyshire-Bryant2016-05-121-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OpenWRT changed the default fq_codel sch->limit from 10240 to 1024, without also adjusting q->flows_cnt. Eric Dumazet explains below that you must also adjust the buckets (q->flows_cnt) for this not to break. Eric explains: Limit of 1024 packets and 1024 flows is not wise I think. (If all buckets are in use, each bucket has a virtual queue of 1 packet, which is almost the same than having no queue at all) I suggest to have at least 8 packets per bucket, to let Codel have a chance to trigger. So you could either reduce number of buckets to 128 (if memory is tight), or increase limit to 8192. flows_cnt is now set to 1024/8=128 Signed-off-by: Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant <kevin@darbyshire-bryant.me.uk>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function memblock_insert_region() is in the section __init_memblock, also put crashlog_init_memblock there. This fixes this section mismatch warning: The function memblock_insert_region.isra.1() references the function __meminit crashlog_init_memblock(). This is often because memblock_insert_region.isra.1 lacks a __meminit annotation or the annotation of crashlog_init_memblock is wrong.

* kernel: take bcm47xx_nvram.h from kernel and not backportsHauke Mehrtens2015-11-131-0/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | compat-wireless/backports now contains a bcm47xx_nvram.h file to backport some of the functions in it which are used by the bcmfmac driver. This file just checks for the kernel versions and provide an empty implementations on older kernel versions. This is OK on most systems, but on bcm47xx / bcm53xx systems we want to call the real functions here. This commit removes the file from backports in our build process like we do it with the bcma and ssb header files. Instead we add a recent version into our kernel so all code uses only one header file. On bcm47xx / bcm53xx the real implementations of this code will be used.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This contains two sets of fixes for the 8139cp driver. For all kernel versions older than 4.3, we can apply the fixes from the 4.3-rc4 kernel. In particular, these fix the TX timeout recovery which is causing my Geos to lock up until the hardware watchdog kicks in. For 4.0 and later kernels, we can also apply the additional improvements which are going into 4.4 to fix and enable hardware checksum/TSO offload. Backporting those to older kernels is non-trivial.

* generic: Fix per interface nf_call_iptables settingFelix Fietkau2015-09-091-179/+0

But this optimization breaks the nf_call_iptables per bridge setting which is more fine grained than the global sysctl net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables setting. A test reflecting a real world setup was created to identify if this really eliminates the overhead and if per-bridge nf_call_iptables could be used in some setups to increase the throughput. A Qualcomm Atheros QCA9558 based system with one ethernet and an ath9k wifi 3x3 in HT40 mode was used. Cables from the AP to the wifi station were used to reduce interference problems during the tests. The wlan interface was put in one bridge interface called br-wlan. This bridge usually contains some more wlan interfaces. The eth0 was put in a second bridge called br-lan. This usually contains some other privileged wlan or mesh interfaces. Routing was added between br-lan and br-wlan. Three kernels were tested: * (default) OpenWrt kernel for this device * (brfilter-global) OpenWrt kernel with CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y * (brfilter-local) OpenWrt kernel with CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y and without 644-bridge_optimize_netfilter_hooks.patch The changes to the the netfilter settings of the bridge were done via: * (brfilter-global) /sbin/sysctl -w net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables=1 * (brfilter-lobal) echo 1 > /sys/class/net/br-lan/bridge/nf_call_iptables and/or echo 1 > /sys/class/net/br-wan/bridge/nf_call_iptables A station connected to the wlan0 (AP) interface was used to send traffic to a PC connected via ethernet. iperf with 3 concurrent transmissions was used to generate the traffic. | kernel | br-nf-* global | nf-call* iface | download | upload | |-----------------|----------------|----------------|----------|----------| | default | 0 | - | 209 | 268 | | brfilter-global | 0 | - | 185 | 243 | | brfilter-local | 0 | - | 187 | 243 | | brfilter-local | 0 | br-lan | 157 | 226 | | brfilter-local | 0 | br-lan br-wlan | 139 | 161 | | brfilter-global | 1 | - | 136 | 162 | Download/upload results in Mibit/s It can be seen that the patch doesn't eliminate the overhead. It can also be seen that the throughput of brfilter-global and brfilter-local with disabled filtering is the roughly the same. Also the throughput for brfilter-global and brfilter-local for enabled filtering on all bridges is roughly the same. But also the brfilter-local throughput is higher when only br-lan requires the filtering. This setting would not be possible with 644-bridge_optimize_netfilter_hooks.patch applied and thus can only be compared with brfilter-global and filtering enabled for all interfaces.
