| * | | | net: always pass struct netdev_notifier_info to netdevice notifiersCong Wang2013-05-281-6/+0

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets whose skbs are GSO. SKB Usage: When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do the following to skb metadata: * Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet. skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch. * Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet. * Set skb->network_header to correspond to the end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack. I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich. That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls() and was used to exercise this code. The datapath patch is against the Open vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point. Features: I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially consistent with the handling of other protocols. Jesse, I understand that you have some ideas here. I am more than happy to change my implementation. This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices to advertise features supported for MPLS packets. A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support hardware MPLS GSO offload. Currently no devices support this and MPLS GSO always falls back to software. Alternate Implementation: One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features() and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to __skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment(). I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled into the kernel or inserted as a module. MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross. Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE" by Pravin B Shelar.

| * | | | | net: Loosen constraints for recalculating checksum in skb_segment()Simon Horman2013-05-221-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a generic solution to resolve a specific problem that I have observed. If the encapsulation of an skb changes then ability to offload checksums may also change. In particular it may be necessary to perform checksumming in software. An example of such a case is where a non-GRE packet is received but is to be encapsulated and transmitted as GRE. Another example relates to my proposed support for for packets that are non-MPLS when received but MPLS when transmitted. The cost of this change is that the value of the csum variable may be checked when it previously was not. In the case where the csum variable is true this is pure overhead. In the case where the csum variable is false it leads to software checksumming, which I believe also leads to correct checksums in transmitted packets for the cases described above. Further analysis: This patch relies on the return value of can_checksum_protocol() being correct and in turn the return value of skb_network_protocol(), used to provide the protocol parameter of can_checksum_protocol(), being correct. It also relies on the features passed to skb_segment() and in turn to can_checksum_protocol() being correct. I believe that this problem has not been observed for VLANs because it appears that almost all drivers, the exception being xgbe, set vlan_features such that that the checksum offload support for VLAN packets is greater than or equal to that of non-VLAN packets. I wonder if the code in xgbe may be an oversight and the hardware does support checksumming of VLAN packets. If so it may be worth updating the vlan_features of the driver as this patch will force such checksums to be performed in software rather than hardware.

| * | | | | rps: selective flow shedding during softnet overflowWillem de Bruijn2013-05-203-3/+165
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A cpu executing the network receive path sheds packets when its input queue grows to netdev_max_backlog. A single high rate flow (such as a spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu. This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this (set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold. Tested: Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0, kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7 each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is dropped and the server processes its complete load. The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet socket tap, ..).

* | | | | | net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.Nicolas Schichan2013-06-263-30/+40

If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the devnet_rename_seq sequence. This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name()) and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt. The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying the access to give the writer process a chance to finish. The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the reader process in the contended case, but this is better than deadlocking the system.

This patch restores the original names, i.e. the original ABI. If we wanted to make clear to users that we are refering to CTAGs we can always change ethtool's short_name and long_name for these features (for example something along the lines of txvlan -> txvlan-ctag, tx-vlan-offload -> tx-vlan-ctag-offload).

If so, it tests global and sync. In this case, sync=true, and it then checks if the address is already synced, and if so, returns 0. This 0 return causes __hw_addr_sync_one to increment the sync_cnt and refcount for the "from" list's address entry, even though the address is already synced and has a reference and sync_cnt. This will cause the sync_cnt and refcount to increment without bound every time an addresses is added to the "from" device and synced to the "to" device. The fix here has two parts: First, when __hw_addr_add_ex finds the address already exists and is synced, return -EEXIST instead of 0. Second, __hw_addr_sync_one checks the error return for -EEXIST, and if so, it (a) does not add a refcount/sync_cnt, and (b) returns 0 itself so that __hw_addr_sync_multiple will not return an error.

This causes a test inside to fail, with the result being that the reference count on the "from" address is not properly decremeted and the address on the "from" list will never be freed.

In addition, commit 6d4f0139d642c45411a47879325891ce2a7c164a added CONFIG_NET dependency to CONFIG_VMCI for memcpy_toiovec, so hoist that function and revert that commit too. socket.h already includes uio.h, so no callers need updating; trying only broke things fo x86_64 randconfig (thanks Fengguang!).

* ipv6: do not clear pinet6 fieldEric Dumazet2013-05-111-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established() After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true. Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP and TCP stacks. Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field. This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891 ("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc") TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field. At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
