* inet6: prevent network storms caused by linux IPv6 routersAlexey Kuznetsov2011-01-121-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | Linux IPv6 forwards unicast packets, which are link layer multicasts... The hole was present since day one. I was 100% this check is there, but it is not. The problem shows itself, f.e. when Microsoft Network Load Balancer runs on a network. This software resolves IPv6 unicast addresses to multicast MAC addresses.

| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch modifies IPsec6 to fragment IPv6 packets that are locally generated as needed.

| * ip: fix truesize mismatch in ip fragmentationEric Dumazet2010-09-211-5/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Special care should be taken when slow path is hit in ip_fragment() : When walking through frags, we transfert truesize ownership from skb to frags. Then if we hit a slow_path condition, we must undo this or risk uncharging frags->truesize twice, and in the end, having negative socket sk_wmem_alloc counter, or even freeing socket sooner than expected. Many thanks to Nick Bowler, who provided a very clean bug report and test program. Thanks to Jarek for reviewing my first patch and providing a V2 While Nick bisection pointed to commit 2b85a34e911 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx), underlying bug is older (2.6.12-rc5) A side effect is to extend work done in commit b2722b1c3a893e (ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket) to ipv6 as well.

* ipv6: Add GSO support on forwarding pathHerbert Xu2010-05-281-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we disallow GSO packets on the IPv6 forward path. This patch fixes this. Note that I discovered that our existing GSO MTU checks (e.g., IPv4 forwarding) are buggy in that they skip the check altogether, when they really should be checking gso_size + header instead. I have also been lazy here in that I haven't bothered to segment the GSO packet by hand before generating an ICMP message. Someone should add that to be 100% correct.

* ipv6: ip6mr: support multiple tablesPatrick McHardy2010-05-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances, named "tables". Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT6_TABLE. The table number is stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ip6mr setsockopt(), getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT6_TABLE_DFLT) is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pim6reg devices have the table number appended ("pim6regX"), with the exception of devices created in the default table, which are named just "pim6reg" for compatibility reasons. Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules, similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported additionally. Example usage: - bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table: uint32_t table = 123; setsockopt(fd, SOL_IPV6, MRT6_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table)); - create routing rules directing packets to the new table: # ip -6 mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123 # ip -6 mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123 Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

After receiving a ICMPv6 Too Big message reporting PMTU is less than the IPv6 Minimum Link MTU, sctp *can't* send any data/control chunk that total length including IPv6 head and IPv6 extend head is less than IPV6_MIN_MTU(1280 bytes).

| * include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-301-0/+1

Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Christoph Lameter pointed out that packet drops at qdisc level where not accounted in SNMP counters. Only if application sets IP_RECVERR, drops are reported to user (-ENOBUFS errors) and SNMP counters updated. IP_RECVERR is used to enable extended reliable error message passing, but these are not needed to update system wide SNMP stats. This patch changes things a bit to allow SNMP counters to be updated, regardless of IP_RECVERR being set or not on the socket. Example after an UDP tx flood # netstat -s ... IP: 1487048 outgoing packets dropped ... Udp: ... SndbufErrors: 1487048 send() syscalls, do however still return an OK status, to not break applications. Note : send() manual page explicitly says for -ENOBUFS error : "The output queue for a network interface was full. This generally indicates that the interface has stopped sending, but may be caused by transient congestion. (Normally, this does not occur in Linux. Packets are just silently dropped when a device queue overflows.) " This is not true for IP_RECVERR enabled sockets : a send() syscall that hit a qdisc drop returns an ENOBUFS error.

* net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each txEric Dumazet2009-06-111-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | One of the problem with sock memory accounting is it uses a pair of sock_hold()/sock_put() for each transmitted packet. This slows down bidirectional flows because the receive path also needs to take a refcount on socket and might use a different cpu than transmit path or transmit completion path. So these two atomic operations also trigger cache line bounces. We can see this in tx or tx/rx workloads (media gateways for example), where sock_wfree() can be in top five functions in profiles. We use this sock_hold()/sock_put() so that sock freeing is delayed until all tx packets are completed. As we also update sk_wmem_alloc, we could offset sk_wmem_alloc by one unit at init time, until sk_free() is called. Once sk_free() is called, we atomic_dec_and_test(sk_wmem_alloc) to decrement initial offset and atomicaly check if any packets are in flight. skb_set_owner_w() doesnt call sock_hold() anymore sock_wfree() doesnt call sock_put() anymore, but check if sk_wmem_alloc reached 0 to perform the final freeing. Drawback is that a skb->truesize error could lead to unfreeable sockets, or even worse, prematurely calling __sk_free() on a live socket. Nice speedups on SMP. tbench for example, going from 2691 MB/s to 2711 MB/s on my 8 cpu dev machine, even if tbench was not really hitting sk_refcnt contention point. 5 % speedup on a UDP transmit workload (depends on number of flows), lowering TX completion cpu usage.

* snmp: add missing counters for RFC 4293Neil Horman2009-04-271-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The IP MIB (RFC 4293) defines stats for InOctets, OutOctets, InMcastOctets and OutMcastOctets: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4293 But it seems we don't track those in any way that easy to separate from other protocols. This patch adds those missing counters to the stats file. Tested successfully by me With help from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes kernel bugzilla 11469: "TUN with 1024 neighbours: ip6_dst_lookup_tail NULL crash" dst->neighbour is not necessarily hooked up at this point in the processing path, so blindly dereferencing it is the wrong thing to do. This NULL check exists in other similar paths and this case was just an oversight. Also fix the completely wrong and confusing indentation here while we're at it.
