PATCH v4 1/3 netpoll: add generic support for bridge and bonding devices

V4:
Use "unlikely" to mark netpoll call path, suggested by Stephen. Handle NETDEV_GOING_DOWN case.

V3:
Update to latest Linus' tree.
Fix deadlocks when releasing slaves of bonding devices. Thanks to Andy.

V2:
Fix some bugs of previous version.
Remove ->netpoll_setup and ->netpoll_xmit, they are not necessary. Don't poll all underlying devices, poll ->real_dev in struct netpoll. Thanks to David for suggesting above.

------------>

This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding, and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now.

To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things:

1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device:
IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll; IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device at run-time;

2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops:
->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is
removed.

3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter; export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later;

4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto.

5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll.

6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

PATCH v4 2/3 bridge: make bridge support netpoll

Based on the previous patch, make bridge support netpoll by:

1) implement the 2 methods to support netpoll for bridge;

2) modify netpoll during forwarding packets via bridge;

3) disable netpoll support of bridge when a netpoll-unabled device is added to bridge;

4) enable netpoll support when all underlying devices support netpoll.

PATCH v4 3/3 bonding: make bonding support netpoll

In reply to Amerigo Wang

Based on Andy's work, but I modified a lot.

Similar to the patch for bridge, this patch does:

1) implement the 2 methods to support netpoll for bonding;

2) modify netpoll during forwarding packets via bonding;

3) disable netpoll support of bonding when a netpoll-unabled device is added to bonding;

4) enable netpoll support when all underlying devices support netpoll.

" ||" goes on first line, not second, and second line needs to be indented properly so that "!ndev->..." matches up with "ndev->priv_flags ..." on the previous line.

V4:
Use "unlikely" to mark netpoll call path, suggested by Stephen. Handle NETDEV_GOING_DOWN case.

V3:
Update to latest Linus' tree.
Fix deadlocks when releasing slaves of bonding devices. Thanks to Andy.

V2:
Fix some bugs of previous version.
Remove ->netpoll_setup and ->netpoll_xmit, they are not necessary. Don't poll all underlying devices, poll ->real_dev in struct netpoll. Thanks to David for suggesting above.

------------>

This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding, and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now.

To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things:

1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device:
  IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll; IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device at run-time;

2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops:
  ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is removed.

3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter; export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later;

4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto.

5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll.

6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

This is redundant, since ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup will set it.

Thanks.
