ipv6: Plug sk_buff leak in ipv6_rcv (net/ipv6/ip6_input.c)

Commit 778d80be52699596bf70e0eb0761cf5e1e46088d
(ipv6: Add disable_ipv6 sysctl to disable IPv6 operaion on specific interface)
seems to have introduced a leak of sk_buff's for ipv6 traffic,
at least in some configurations where idev is NULL, or when ipv6
is disabled via sysctl.

The problem is that if the first condition of the if-statement
returns non-NULL, it returns an skb with only one reference,
and when the other conditions apply, execution jumps to the "out"
label, which does not call kfree_skb for it.

To plug this leak, change to use the "drop" label instead.
(this relies on it being ok to call kfree_skb on NULL)
This also allows us to avoid calling rcu_read_unlock here,
and removes the only user of the "out" label.

IORESOURCE_MEM resource defines the network packet buffer space. The third

GRO: Disable GRO on legacy netif_rx path

When I fixed the GRO crash in the legacy receive path I used
napi_complete to replace __napi_complete.  Unfortunately they're
not the same when NETPOLL is enabled, which may result in us
not calling __napi_complete at all.

What's more, we really do need to keep the __napi_complete call
within the IRQ-off section since in theory an IRQ can occur in
between and fill up the backlog to the maximum, causing us to
lock up.

Since we can't seem to find a fix that works properly right now,
this patch reverts all the GRO support from the netif_rx path.

Wu Fengguang [Mon, 23 Mar 2009 00:57:38 +0000 (08:57 +0800)]
writeback: double the dirty thresholds

Enlarge default dirty ratios from 5/10 to 10/20.  This fixes [Bug
#12809] iozone regression with 2.6.29-rc6.

The iozone benchmarks are performed on a 1200M file, with 8GB ram.

  iozone -i 0 -i 1 -i 2 -i 3 -i 4 -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls
  iozone -B -r 4k -s 64k -s 512m -s 1200m -b tmp.xls

The performance regression is triggered by commit 1cf6e7d83bf3(mm: task
dirty accounting fix), which makes more correct/thorough dirty
accounting.

The default 5/10 dirty ratios were picked (a) with the old dirty logic
and (b) largely at random and (c) designed to be aggressive.  In
particular, that (a) means that having fixed some of the dirty
accounting, maybe the real bug is now that it was always too aggressive,
just hidden by an accounting issue.

The enlarged 10/20 dirty ratios are just about enough to fix the regression.

[ We will have to look at how this affects the old fsync() latency issue,
  but that probably will need independent work.  - Linus ]
