* s390/qeth: on channel error, reject further cmd requestsJulian Wiedmann2018-04-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit a6c3d93963e4b333c764fde69802c3ea9eaa9d5c ] When the IRQ handler determines that one of the cmd IO channels has failed and schedules recovery, block any further cmd requests from being submitted. The request would inevitably stall, and prevent the recovery from making progress until the request times out. This sort of error was observed after Live Guest Relocation, where the pending IO on the READ channel intentionally gets terminated to kick-start recovery. Simultaneously the guest executed SIOCETHTOOL, triggering qeth to issue a QUERY CARD INFO command. The command then stalled in the inoperabel WRITE channel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 17bf8c9b3d499d5168537c98b61eb7a1fcbca6c2 ] For calling ccw_device_start(), issue_next_read() needs to hold the device's ccwlock. This is satisfied for the IRQ handler path (where qeth_irq() gets called under the ccwlock), but we need explicit locking for the initial call by the MPC initialization.

* s390/qeth: free netdevice when removing a cardJulian Wiedmann2018-04-083-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 6be687395b3124f002a653c1a50b3260222b3cd7 ] On removal, a qeth card's netdevice is currently not properly freed because the call chain looks as follows: qeth_core_remove_device(card) lx_remove_device(card) unregister_netdev(card->dev) card->dev = NULL !!! qeth_core_free_card(card) if (card->dev) !!! free_netdev(card->dev) Fix it by free'ing the netdev straight after unregistering. This also fixes the sysfs-driven layer switch case (qeth_dev_layer2_store()), where the need to free the current netdevice was not considered at all. Note that free_netdev() takes care of the netif_napi_del() for us too.

* s390/qeth: fix IPA command submission raceJulian Wiedmann2018-03-111-9/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit d22ffb5a712f9211ffd104c38fc17cbfb1b5e2b0 ] If multiple IPA commands are build & sent out concurrently, fill_ipacmd_header() may assign a seqno value to a command that's different from what send_control_data() later assigns to this command's reply. This is due to other commands passing through send_control_data(), and incrementing card->seqno.ipa along the way. So one IPA command has no reply that's waiting for its seqno, while some other IPA command has multiple reply objects waiting for it. Only one of those waiting replies wins, and the other(s) times out and triggers a recovery via send_ipa_cmd(). Fix this by making sure that the same seqno value is assigned to a command and its reply object. Do so immediately before submitting the command & while holding the irq_pending "lock", to produce nicely ascending seqnos. As a side effect, *all* IPA commands now use a reply object that's waiting for its actual seqno. Previously, early IPA commands that were submitted while the card was still DOWN used the "catch-all" IDX seqno. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* s390/qeth: no ETH header for outbound AF_IUCVJulian Wiedmann2017-12-251-11/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit acd9776b5c45ef02d1a210969a6fcc058afb76e3 ] With AF_IUCV traffic, the skb passed to hard_start_xmit() has a 14 byte slot at skb->data, intended for an ETH header. qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr() fills this ETH header... and then immediately moves it to the skb's headroom, where it disappears and is never seen again. But it's still possible for us to return NETDEV_TX_BUSY after the skb has been modified. Since we didn't get a private copy of the skb, the next time the skb is delivered to hard_start_xmit() it no longer has the expected layout (we moved the ETH header to the headroom, so skb->data now starts at the IUCV_TRANS header). So when qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr() does another round of rebuilding, the resulting qeth header ends up all wrong. On transmission, the buffer is then rejected by the HiperSockets device with SBALF15 = x'04'. When this error is passed back to af_iucv as TX_NOTIFY_UNREACHABLE, it tears down the offending socket. As the ETH header for AF_IUCV serves no purpose, just align the code to what we do for IP traffic on L3 HiperSockets: keep the ETH header at skb->data, and pass down data_offset = ETH_HLEN to qeth_fill_buffer(). When mapping the payload into the SBAL elements, the ETH header is then stripped off. This avoids the skb manipulations in qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr(), and any buffer re-entering hard_start_xmit() after NETDEV_TX_BUSY is now processed properly.

* s390/qeth: unbreak OSM and OSN supportJulian Wiedmann2017-06-077-20/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 2d2ebb3ed0c6acfb014f98e427298673a5d07b82 ] commit b4d72c08b358 ("qeth: bridgeport support - basic control") broke the support for OSM and OSN devices as follows: As OSM and OSN are L2 only, qeth_core_probe_device() does an early setup by loading the l2 discipline and calling qeth_l2_probe_device(). In this context, adding the l2-specific bridgeport sysfs attributes via qeth_l2_create_device_attributes() hits a BUG_ON in fs/sysfs/group.c, since the basic sysfs infrastructure for the device hasn't been established yet. Note that OSN actually has its own unique sysfs attributes (qeth_osn_devtype), so the additional attributes shouldn't be created at all. For OSM, add a new qeth_l2_devtype that contains all the common and l2-specific sysfs attributes. When qeth_core_probe_device() does early setup for OSM or OSN, assign the corresponding devtype so that the ccwgroup probe code creates the full set of sysfs attributes. This allows us to skip qeth_l2_create_device_attributes() in case of an early setup. Any device that can't do early setup will initially have only the generic sysfs attributes, and when it's probed later qeth_l2_probe_device() adds the l2-specific attributes. If an early-setup device is removed (by calling ccwgroup_ungroup()), device_unregister() will - using the devtype - delete the l2-specific attributes before qeth_l2_remove_device() is called. So make sure to not remove them twice. What complicates the issue is that qeth_l2_probe_device() and qeth_l2_remove_device() is also called on a device when its layer2 attribute changes (ie. its layer mode is switched). For early-setup devices this wouldn't work properly - we wouldn't remove the l2-specific attributes when switching to L3. But switching the layer mode doesn't actually make any sense; we already decided that the device can only operate in L2! So just refuse to switch the layer mode on such devices. Note that OSN doesn't have a layer2 attribute, so we only need to special-case OSM. Based on an initial patch by Ursula Braun.

Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal. Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit() before even taking qdisc lock. As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some packet schedulers or classifiers. This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers or qdiscs/classifiers. Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call following helper in their setup instead of the prior : dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE; -> netif_keep_dst(dev); Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers. The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something smarter later.

No longer will we need protocol aware firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace. At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata (arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions. Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate byte codes to do such lookups. Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel. Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation, one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and this is very expensive. Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the new stuff. Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have worked so hard on this. 2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things. In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test cases are added. 3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet and Yang Yingliang. 4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin Sujir. 5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet, Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng. 6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary control message data, much like other socket option attributes. From Francesco Fusco. 7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet. 8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn Bohrer. 10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet. 11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav Falico. 12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys. Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and our generic flow dissector. 14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned up in this way, from Jingoo Han. 15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann. 16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel Borkmann. 17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks, particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal (re-)implementation in virtio-net.
