|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new route handling in ip_mc_finish_output() from 'net' overlapped with the new support for returning congestion notifications from BPF programs. In order to handle this I had to take the dev_loopback_xmit() calls out of the switch statement. The aquantia driver conflicts were simple overlapping changes. Signed-off-by: David S.

* | ipv6: Dump route exceptions if requestedStefano Brivio2019-06-241-1/+1

This causes 'ip -6 route list cache' and 'ip -6 route flush cache' to have no function anymore: # ip -6 route get fc00:3::1 fc00:3::1 via fc00:1::2 dev veth_A-R1 src fc00:1::1 metric 1024 expires 539sec mtu 1400 pref medium # ip -6 route get fc00:4::1 fc00:4::1 via fc00:2::2 dev veth_A-R2 src fc00:2::1 metric 1024 expires 536sec mtu 1500 pref medium # ip -6 route list cache # ip -6 route flush cache # ip -6 route get fc00:3::1 fc00:3::1 via fc00:1::2 dev veth_A-R1 src fc00:1::1 metric 1024 expires 520sec mtu 1400 pref medium # ip -6 route get fc00:4::1 fc00:4::1 via fc00:2::2 dev veth_A-R2 src fc00:2::1 metric 1024 expires 519sec mtu 1500 pref medium because iproute2 lists cached routes using RTM_GETROUTE, and flushes them by listing all the routes, and deleting them with RTM_DELROUTE one by one. If cached routes are requested using the RTM_F_CLONED flag together with strict checking, or if no strict checking is requested (and hence we can't consistently apply filters), look up exceptions in the hash table associated with the current fib6_info in rt6_dump_route(), and, if present and not expired, add them to the dump. We might be unable to dump all the entries for a given node in a single message, so keep track of how many entries were handled for the current node in fib6_walker, and skip that amount in case we start from the same partially dumped node. When a partial dump restarts, as the starting node might change when 'sernum' changes, we have no guarantee that we need to skip the same amount of in-node entries. Therefore, we need two counters, and we need to zero the in-node counter if the node from which the dump is resumed differs. Note that, with the current version of iproute2, this only fixes the 'ip -6 route list cache': on a flush command, iproute2 doesn't pass RTM_F_CLONED and, due to this inconsistency, 'ip -6 route flush cache' is still unable to fetch the routes to be flushed. This will be addressed in a patch for iproute2. To flush cached routes, a procfs entry could be introduced instead: that's how it works for IPv4. We already have a rt6_flush_exception() function ready to be wired to it. However, this would not solve the issue for listing.

This implies that iproute2 needs a separate patch to be able to flush IPv6 cached routes. This is not ideal because we can't fix the breakage caused by 2b760fcf5cfb entirely in kernel. However, two years have passed since then, and this makes it more tolerable v3: - More descriptive comment about expired exceptions in rt6_dump_route() - Swap return values of rt6_dump_route() (suggested by Martin Lau) - Don't zero skip_in_node in case we don't dump anything in a given pass (also suggested by Martin Lau) - Remove check on RTM_F_CLONED altogether: in the current UAPI semantic, it's just a flag to indicate the route was cloned, not to filter on routes v2: Add tracking of number of entries to be skipped in current node after a partial dump. As we restart from the same node, if not all the exceptions for a given node fit in a single message, the dump will not terminate, as suggested by Martin Lau. This is a concrete possibility, setting up a big number of exceptions for the same route actually causes the issue, suggested by David Ahern.

* | ipv6: convert major tx path to use RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREFWei Wang2019-06-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For tx path, in most cases, we still have to take refcnt on the dst cause the caller is caching the dst somewhere. But it still is beneficial to make use of RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF flag while doing the route lookup. It is cause this flag prevents manipulating refcnt on net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry when doing fib6_rule_lookup() to traverse each routing table. The null_entry is a shared object and constant updates on it cause false sharing. We converted the current major lookup function ip6_route_output_flags() to make use of RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF. Together with the change in the rx path, we see noticable performance boost: I ran synflood tests between 2 hosts under the same switch. Both hosts have 20G mlx NIC, and 8 tx/rx queues. Sender sends pure SYN flood with random src IPs and ports using trafgen. Receiver has a simple TCP listener on the target port. Both hosts have multiple custom rules: - For incoming packets, only local table is traversed. - For outgoing packets, 3 tables are traversed to find the route. The packet processing rate on the receiver is as follows: - Before the fix: 3.78Mpps - After the fix: 5.50Mpps Signed-off-by: Wei Wang <weiwan@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch specifically converts the rule lookup logic to honor this flag and not release refcnt when traversing each rule and calling lookup() on each routing table. Similar to previous patch, we also need some special handling of dst entries in uncached list because there is always 1 refcnt taken for them even if RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF flag is set.

* | ipv6: introduce RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF flag in ip6_pol_route()Wei Wang2019-06-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new flag is to instruct the route lookup function to not take refcnt on the dst entry. The user which does route lookup with this flag must properly use rcu protection. ip6_pol_route() is the major route lookup function for both tx and rx path. In this function: Do not take refcnt on dst if RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF flag is set, and directly return the route entry. The caller should be holding rcu lock when using this flag, and decide whether to take refcnt or not. One note on the dst cache in the uncached_list: As uncached_list does not consume refcnt, one refcnt is always returned back to the caller even if RT6_LOOKUP_F_DST_NOREF flag is set. Uncached dst is only possible in the output path. So in such call path, caller MUST check if the dst is in the uncached_list before assuming that there is no refcnt taken on the returned dst.

* | ipv6: Plumb support for nexthop object in a fib6_infoDavid Ahern2019-06-041-2/+11

Since a fib6_info referencing a nexthop object can not have 'sibling' entries (the old way of doing multipath routes), the nh_list is a union with fib6_siblings. Add f6i_list list_head to 'struct nexthop' to track fib6_info entries using a nexthop instance. Update __remove_nexthop_fib to walk f6_list and delete fib entries using the nexthop. Add a few nexthop helpers for use when a nexthop is added to fib6_info: - nexthop_fib6_nh - return first fib6_nh in a nexthop object - fib6_info_nh_dev moved to nexthop.h and updated to use nexthop_fib6_nh if the fib6_info references a nexthop object - nexthop_path_fib6_result - similar to ipv4, select a path within a multipath nexthop object. If the nexthop is a blackhole, set fib6_result type to RTN_BLACKHOLE, and set the REJECT flag Update the fib6_info references to check for nh and take a different path as needed: - rt6_qualify_for_ecmp - if a fib entry uses a nexthop object it can NOT be coalesced with other fib entries into a multipath route - rt6_duplicate_nexthop - use nexthop_cmp if either fib6_info references a nexthop - addrconf (host routes), RA's and info entries (anything configured via ndisc) does not use nexthop objects - fib6_info_destroy_rcu - put reference to nexthop object - fib6_purge_rt - drop fib6_info from f6i_list - fib6_select_path - update to use the new nexthop_path_fib6_result when fib entry uses a nexthop object - rt6_device_match - update to catch use of nexthop object as a blackhole and set fib6_type and flags. - ip6_route_info_create - don't add space for fib6_nh if fib entry is going to reference a nexthop object, take a reference to nexthop object, disallow use of source routing - rt6_nlmsg_size - add space for RTA_NH_ID - add rt6_fill_node_nexthop to add nexthop data on a dump As with ipv4, most of the changes push existing code into the else branch of whether the fib entry uses a nexthop object.

* net: Change nhc_flags to unsigned charDavid Ahern2019-04-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | nhc_flags holds the RTNH_F flags for a given nexthop (fib{6}_nh). All of the RTNH_F_ flags fit in an unsigned char, and since the API to userspace (rtnh_flags and lower byte of rtm_flags) is 1 byte it can not grow. Make nhc_flags in fib_nh_common an unsigned char and shrink the size of the struct by 8, from 56 to 48 bytes. Update the flags arguments for up netdevice events and fib_nexthop_info which determines the RTNH_F flags to return on a dump/event. The RTNH_F flags are passed in the lower byte of rtm_flags which is an unsigned int so use a temp variable for the flags to fib_nexthop_info and combine with rtm_flags in the caller.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit c7a1ce397ada ("ipv6: Change addrconf_f6i_alloc to use ip6_route_info_create"), the gateway is no longer filled in for fib6_nh structs in a prefix route. Accordingly, the RTF_ADDRCONF flag check can be dropped from the 'rt6_qualify_for_ecmp'. Further, RTF_DYNAMIC is only set in rt6_info instances, so it can be removed from the check as well. This reduces rt6_qualify_for_ecmp and the mlxsw version to just checking if the nexthop has a gateway which is the real indication of whether entries can be coalesced into a multipath route.

To that end, replace nhc_has_gw with nhc_gw_family and update users of nhc_has_gw to check nhc_gw_family. Now nhc_family is used to know if the nh_common is part of a fib_nh or fib6_nh (used for container_of to get to route family specific data), and nhc_gw_family represents the address family for the gateway.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring consistency to ipv6 route replace and append semantics. Remove rt6_qualify_for_ecmp which is just guess work. It fails in 2 cases: 1. can not replace a route with a reject route. Existing code appends a new route instead of replacing the existing one. 2. can not have a multipath route where a leg uses a dev only nexthop Existing use cases affected by this change: 1. adding a route with existing prefix and metric using NLM_F_CREATE without NLM_F_APPEND or NLM_F_EXCL (ie., what iproute2 calls 'prepend'). Existing code auto-determines that the new nexthop can be appended to an existing route to create a multipath route. This change breaks that by requiring the APPEND flag for the new route to be added to an existing one. Instead the prepend just adds another route entry. 2. route replace. Existing code replaces first matching multipath route if new route is multipath capable and fallback to first matching non-ECMP route (reject or dev only route) in case one isn't available. New behavior replaces first matching route. (Thanks to Ido for spotting this one) Note: Newer iproute2 is needed to display multipath routes with a dev-only nexthop.

As a consequence of this change ip6_route_get_saddr can just pass the nexthop device to ipv6_dev_get_saddr. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net/ipv6: Cleanup exception and cache route handlingDavid Ahern2018-04-171-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPv6 FIB will only contain FIB entries with exception routes added to the FIB entry. Once this transformation is complete, FIB lookups will return a fib6_info with the lookup functions still returning a dst based rt6_info. The current code uses rt6_info for both paths and overloads the rt6_info variable usually called 'rt'. This patch introduces a new 'f6i' variable name for the result of the FIB lookup and keeps 'rt' as the dst based return variable. 'f6i' becomes a fib6_info in a later patch which is why it is introduced as f6i now; avoids the additional churn in the later patch. In addition, remove RTF_CACHE and dst checks from fib6 add and delete since they can not happen now and will never happen after the data type flip.

In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the 'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied over here. The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code. The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial, the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and here are their notes: ==================== Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch and the for-next branch. This merge resolves those conflicts and provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can be based. Conflicts: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524 (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support) add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the init/de-init functions used by mlx5.

Then if it's refcnt was still held somewhere, later it would be put into dst_busy_list in dst_gc_task(). When one dev was being unregistered, the dev of these dsts in dst_busy_list would be set with loopback_dev and put this dev. So that this dev's removal wouldn't get blocked, and avoid the kmsg warning: kernel:unregister_netdevice: waiting for veth0 to become \ free. Usage count = 2 However after Commit 52df157f17e5 ("xfrm: take refcnt of dst when creating struct xfrm_dst bundle"), the xdst will not be freed with dst gc, and this warning happens. To fix it, we need to find these xdsts that are still held by others when removing the dev, and free xdst's dev and set it with loopback_dev. But unfortunately after flow_cache for xfrm was deleted, no list tracks them anymore. So we need to save these xdsts somewhere to release the xdst's dev later. To make this easier, this patch is to reuse uncached_list to track xdsts, so that the dev refcnt can be released in the event NETDEV_UNREGISTER process of fib_netdev_notifier.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before we convert IPv6 to use hash-threshold instead of modulo-N, we first need each nexthop to store its region boundary in the hash function's output space.

By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.
