+
+    pppoatm: drop frames to not-ready vcc
+    
+    Patches "atm: detach protocol before closing vcc"
+    and "pppoatm: allow assign only on a connected socket" fixed
+    common cases where the pppoatm_send() crashes while sending
+    frame to not-ready vcc. However there are still some other cases
+    where we can send frames to vcc, which is flagged as ATM_VF_CLOSE
+    (for instance after vcc_release_async()) or it's opened but not
+    ready yet.
+    
+    Now pppoatm_send(), like vcc_sendmsg(), checks for vcc flags that
+    indicate that vcc is not ready. If the vcc is not ready we just
+    drop frame. Queueing frames is much more complicated because we
+    don't have callbacks that inform us about vcc flags changes.

+
+    pppoatm: take ATM socket lock in pppoatm_send()
+    
+    The pppoatm_send() does not take any lock that will prevent concurrent
+    vcc_sendmsg(). This causes two problems:
+    
+    	- there is no locking between checking the send queue size
+    	  with atm_may_send() and incrementing sk_wmem_alloc,
+    	  and the real queue size can be a little higher than sk_sndbuf
+    
+    	- the vcc->sendmsg() can be called concurrently. I'm not sure
+    	  if it's allowed. Some drivers (eni, nicstar, ...) seem
+    	  to assume it will never happen.
+    
+    Now pppoatm_send() takes ATM socket lock, the same that is used
+    in vcc_sendmsg() and other ATM socket functions. The pppoatm_send()
+    is called with BH disabled, so bh_lock_sock() is used instead
+    of lock_sock().

+    atm: add owner of push() callback to atmvcc
+    
+    The atm is using atmvcc->push(vcc, NULL) callback to notify protocol
+    that vcc will be closed and protocol must detach from it. This callback
+    is usually used by protocol to decrement module usage count by module_put(),
+    but it leaves small window then module is still used after module_put().
+    
+    Now the owner of push() callback is kept in atmvcc and
+    module_put(atmvcc->owner) is called after the protocol is detached from vcc.

+
+    atm: br2684: Fix excessive queue bloat
+    
+    There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering
+    between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight,
+    and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take
+    long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it.
+    
+    If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't
+    think it's likely to be necessary.
+    
+    cf. commit 9d02daf754238adac48fa075ee79e7edd3d79ed3 (pppoatm: Fix
+    excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM.
+    
+    Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may
+    result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the
+    br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time
+    after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()...
+    and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the
+    queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could
+    end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero.
+    
+    An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in
+    br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just
+    using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is
+    simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way...
+    
+    Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and
+    potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters
+    if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call
+    br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to
+    happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in
+    question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication
+    while we're at it.
+    
+    Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my
+    network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after
+    setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact).
+    Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting
+    latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8,
+    which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this
+    OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.

+    
+    The immediate use case for this is that it will allow us to ensure that a

+    locked.
+    
+    Note that 'release_cb' is called when the socket is *unlocked*. This is

+
+    pppoatm: drop frames to not-ready vcc
+    
+    Patches "atm: detach protocol before closing vcc"
+    and "pppoatm: allow assign only on a connected socket" fixed
+    common cases where the pppoatm_send() crashes while sending
+    frame to not-ready vcc. However there are still some other cases
+    where we can send frames to vcc, which is flagged as ATM_VF_CLOSE
+    (for instance after vcc_release_async()) or it's opened but not
+    ready yet.
+    
+    Now pppoatm_send(), like vcc_sendmsg(), checks for vcc flags that
+    indicate that vcc is not ready. If the vcc is not ready we just
+    drop frame. Queueing frames is much more complicated because we

+    pppoatm: take ATM socket lock in pppoatm_send()
+    
+    The pppoatm_send() does not take any lock that will prevent concurrent
+    vcc_sendmsg(). This causes two problems:
+    
+    	- there is no locking between checking the send queue size
+    	  with atm_may_send() and incrementing sk_wmem_alloc,
+    	  and the real queue size can be a little higher than sk_sndbuf
+    
+    	- the vcc->sendmsg() can be called concurrently. I'm not sure
+    	  if it's allowed. Some drivers (eni, nicstar, ...) seem
+    	  to assume it will never happen.
+    
+    Now pppoatm_send() takes ATM socket lock, the same that is used
+    in vcc_sendmsg() and other ATM socket functions. The pppoatm_send()
+    is called with BH disabled, so bh_lock_sock() is used instead
+    of lock_sock().

+    atm: add owner of push() callback to atmvcc
+    
+    The atm is using atmvcc->push(vcc, NULL) callback to notify protocol
+    that vcc will be closed and protocol must detach from it. This callback
+    is usually used by protocol to decrement module usage count by module_put(),
+    but it leaves small window then module is still used after module_put().
+    
+    Now the owner of push() callback is kept in atmvcc and
+    module_put(atmvcc->owner) is called after the protocol is detached from vcc.

+
+    atm: br2684: Fix excessive queue bloat
+    
+    There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering
+    between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight,
+    and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take
+    long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it.
+    
+    If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't
+    think it's likely to be necessary.
+    
+    cf. commit 9d02daf754238adac48fa075ee79e7edd3d79ed3 (pppoatm: Fix
+    excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM.
+    
+    Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may
+    result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the
+    br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time
+    after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()...
+    and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the
+    queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could
+    end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero.
+    
+    An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in
+    br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just
+    using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is
+    simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way...
+    
+    Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and
+    potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters
+    if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call
+    br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to
+    happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in
+    question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication
+    while we're at it.
+    
+    Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my
+    network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after
+    setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact).
+    Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting
+    latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8,
+    which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this
+    OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.

+    pppoatm: drop frames to not-ready vcc
+    
+    Patches "atm: detach protocol before closing vcc"
+    and "pppoatm: allow assign only on a connected socket" fixed
+    common cases where the pppoatm_send() crashes while sending
+    frame to not-ready vcc. However there are still some other cases
+    where we can send frames to vcc, which is flagged as ATM_VF_CLOSE
+    (for instance after vcc_release_async()) or it's opened but not
+    ready yet.
+    
+    Now pppoatm_send(), like vcc_sendmsg(), checks for vcc flags that
+    indicate that vcc is not ready. If the vcc is not ready we just
+    drop frame. Queueing frames is much more complicated because we
+    don't have callbacks that inform us about vcc flags changes.

+    pppoatm: take ATM socket lock in pppoatm_send()
+    
+    The pppoatm_send() does not take any lock that will prevent concurrent
+    vcc_sendmsg(). This causes two problems:
+    
+    	- there is no locking between checking the send queue size
+    	  with atm_may_send() and incrementing sk_wmem_alloc,
+    	  and the real queue size can be a little higher than sk_sndbuf
+    
+    	- the vcc->sendmsg() can be called concurrently. I'm not sure
+    	  if it's allowed. Some drivers (eni, nicstar, ...) seem
+    	  to assume it will never happen.
+    
+    Now pppoatm_send() takes ATM socket lock, the same that is used
+    in vcc_sendmsg() and other ATM socket functions. The pppoatm_send()
+    is called with BH disabled, so bh_lock_sock() is used instead
+    of lock_sock().

+
+    atm: br2684: Fix excessive queue bloat
+    
+    There's really no excuse for an additional wmem_default of buffering
+    between the netdev queue and the ATM device. Two packets (one in-flight,
+    and one ready to send) ought to be fine. It's not as if it should take
+    long to get another from the netdev queue when we need it.
+    
+    If necessary we can make the queue space configurable later, but I don't
+    think it's likely to be necessary.
+    
+    cf. commit 9d02daf754238adac48fa075ee79e7edd3d79ed3 (pppoatm: Fix
+    excessive queue bloat) which did something very similar for PPPoATM.
+    
+    Note that there is a tremendously unlikely race condition which may
+    result in qspace temporarily going negative. If a CPU running the
+    br2684_pop() function goes off into the weeds for a long period of time
+    after incrementing qspace to 1, but before calling netdev_wake_queue()...
+    and another CPU ends up calling br2684_start_xmit() and *stopping* the
+    queue again before the first CPU comes back, the netdev queue could
+    end up being woken when qspace has already reached zero.
+    
+    An alternative approach to coping with this race would be to check in
+    br2684_start_xmit() for qspace==0 and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, but just
+    using '> 0' and '< 1' for comparison instead of '== 0' and '!= 0' is
+    simpler. It just warranted a mention of *why* we do it that way...
+    
+    Move the call to atmvcc->send() to happen *after* the accounting and
+    potentially stopping the netdev queue, in br2684_xmit_vcc(). This matters
+    if the ->send() call suffers an immediate failure, because it'll call
+    br2684_pop() with the offending skb before returning. We want that to
+    happen *after* we've done the initial accounting for the packet in
+    question. Also make it return an appropriate success/failure indication
+    while we're at it.
+    
+    Tested by running 'ping -l 1000 bottomless.aaisp.net.uk' from within my
+    network, with only a single PPPoE-over-BR2684 link running. And after
+    setting txqueuelen on the nas0 interface to something low (5, in fact).
+    Before the patch, we'd see about 15 packets being queued and a resulting
+    latency of ~56ms being reached. After the patch, we see only about 8,
+    which is fairly much what we expect. And a max latency of ~36ms. On this
+    OpenWRT box, wmem_default is 163840.
