* [PKT_SCHED] CLS_U32: Fix endianness problem with u32 classifier hash masks.Radu Rendec2007-11-071-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While trying to implement u32 hashes in my shaping machine I ran into a possible bug in the u32 hash/bucket computing algorithm (net/sched/cls_u32.c). The problem occurs only with hash masks that extend over the octet boundary, on little endian machines (where htonl() actually does something). Let's say that I would like to use 0x3fc0 as the hash mask. This means 8 contiguous "1" bits starting at b6. With such a mask, the expected (and logical) behavior is to hash any address in, for instance, 192.168.0.0/26 in bucket 0, then any address in 192.168.0.64/26 in bucket 1, then 192.168.0.128/26 in bucket 2 and so on. This is exactly what would happen on a big endian machine, but on little endian machines, what would actually happen with current implementation is 0x3fc0 being reversed (into 0xc03f0000) by htonl() in the userspace tool and then applied to 192.168.x.x in the u32 classifier. When shifting right by 16 bits (rank of first "1" bit in the reversed mask) and applying the divisor mask (0xff for divisor 256), what would actually remain is 0x3f applied on the "168" octet of the address. One could say is this can be easily worked around by taking endianness into account in userspace and supplying an appropriate mask (0xfc03) that would be turned into contiguous "1" bits when reversed (0x03fc0000). But the actual problem is the network address (inside the packet) not being converted to host order, but used as a host-order value when computing the bucket. Let's say the network address is written as n31 n30 ... n0, with n0 being the least significant bit. When used directly (without any conversion) on a little endian machine, it becomes n7 ... n0 n8 ..n15 etc in the machine's registers. Thus bits n7 and n8 would no longer be adjacent and 192.168.64.0/26 and 192.168.128.0/26 would no longer be consecutive. The fix is to apply ntohl() on the hmask before computing fshift, and in u32_hash_fold() convert the packet data to host order before shifting down by fshift. With helpful feedback from Jamal Hadi Salim and Jarek Poplawski. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NET]: Fix possible dev_deactivate race conditionHerbert Xu2007-10-181-3/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The function dev_deactivate is supposed to only return when all outstanding transmissions have completed. Unfortunately it is possible for store operations in the driver's transmit function to only become visible after dev_deactivate returns. This patch fixes this by taking the queue lock after we see the end of the queue run. This ensures that all effects of any previous transmit calls are visible. If however we detect that there is another queue run occuring, then we'll warn about it because this should never happen as we have pointed dev->qdisc to noop_qdisc within the same queue lock earlier in the functino.

* [NET]: fix carrier-on bug?Jeff Garzik2007-10-171-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | While looking at a net driver with the following construct, if (!netif_carrier_ok(dev)) netif_carrier_on(dev); it stuck me that the netif_carrier_ok() check was redundant, since netif_carrier_on() checks bit __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER anyway. This is the same reason why netif_queue_stopped() need not be called prior to netif_wake_queue(). This is true, but there is however an unwanted side effect from assuming that netif_carrier_on() can be called multiple times: it touches the watchdog, regardless of pre-existing carrier state. The fix: move watchdog-up inside the bit-cleared code path. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [PKT_SCHED]: Add stateless NATHerbert Xu2007-10-103-0/+334
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stateless NAT is useful in controlled environments where restrictions are placed on through traffic such that we don't need connection tracking to correctly NAT protocol-specific data. In particular, this is of interest when the number of flows or the number of addresses being NATed is large, or if connection tracking information has to be replicated and where it is not practical to do so. Previously we had stateless NAT functionality which was integrated into the IPv4 routing subsystem. This was a great solution as long as the NAT worked on a subnet to subnet basis such that the number of NAT rules was relatively small. The reason is that for SNAT the routing based system had to perform a linear scan through the rules. If the number of rules is large then major renovations would have take place in the routing subsystem to make this practical. For the time being, the least intrusive way of achieving this is to use the u32 classifier written by Alexey Kuznetsov along with the actions infrastructure implemented by Jamal Hadi Salim. The following patch is an attempt at this problem by creating a new nat action that can be invoked from u32 hash tables which would allow large number of stateless NAT rules that can be used/updated in constant time. The actual NAT code is mostly based on the previous stateless NAT code written by Alexey. In future we might be able to utilise the protocol NAT code from netfilter to improve support for other protocols. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For N cpus, with full throttle traffic on all N CPUs, funneling traffic to the same ethernet device, the devices queue lock is contended by all N CPUs constantly. The TX lock is only contended by a max of 2 CPUS. In the current mode of operation, after all the work of entering the dequeue region, we may endup aborting the path if we are unable to get the tx lock and go back to contend for the queue lock. As N goes up, this gets worse. The changes in this patch result in a small increase in performance with a 4CPU (2xdual-core) with no irq binding.

* [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-104-9/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespaceEric W. Biederman2007-10-101-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace. The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument, and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument. This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces. Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents that are relevant to a single network namespace.

* [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.Stephen Hemminger2007-10-101-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several queues. In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the structure representing the poll is independant from the net device itself. The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from: int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget) to int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget) The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the caller upon return. The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data structures. Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures, only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances it may have per-device.

* [NET_SCHED]: act_api: qdisc internal reclassify supportPatrick McHardy2007-07-154-50/+69
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The behaviour of NET_CLS_POLICE for TC_POLICE_RECLASSIFY was to return it to the qdisc, which could handle it internally or ignore it. With NET_CLS_ACT however, tc_classify starts over at the first classifier and never returns it to the qdisc. This makes it impossible to support qdisc-internal reclassification, which in turn makes it impossible to remove the old NET_CLS_POLICE code without breaking compatibility since we have two qdiscs (CBQ and ATM) that support this. This patch adds a tc_classify_compat function that handles reclassification the old way and changes CBQ and ATM to use it. This again is of course not fully backwards compatible with the previous NET_CLS_ACT behaviour. Unfortunately there is no way to fully maintain compatibility *and* support qdisc internal reclassification with NET_CLS_ACT, but this seems like the better choice over keeping the two incompatible options around forever.

The entire optimization is a bit questionable IMO, it moves potentially large parts of NET_TX_SOFTIRQ work to TIMER_SOFTIRQ/HRTIMER_SOFTIRQ, which kind of defeats the separation of them.

* [NET_SCHED]: Make HTB scheduler work with TSO.Ranjit Manomohan2007-07-101-10/+10
| | | | | | | | | Currently the HTB scheduler does not correctly account for TSO packets which causes large inaccuracies in the bandwidth control when using TSO. This patch allows the HTB scheduler to work with TSO enabled devices. Signed-off-by: Ranjit Manomohan <ranjitm@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* [NET_SCHED]: sch_htb: use generic estimatorPatrick McHardy2007-07-101-61/+24
| | | | | | | | Use the generic estimator instead of reimplementing (parts of) it. For compatibility always create a default estimator for new classes. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET_SCHED]: Remove unnecessary stats_lock pointersPatrick McHardy2007-07-105-22/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | Remove stats_lock pointers from qdisc-internal structures, in all cases it points to dev->queue_lock. The only case where it is necessary is for top-level qdiscs, where it might also point to dev->ingress_lock in case of the ingress qdisc. Also remove it from actions completely, it always points to the actions internal lock. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [NET_SCHED]: Remove CONFIG_NET_ESTIMATOR optionPatrick McHardy2007-07-107-60/+0
| | | | | | | | | The generic estimator is always built in anways and all the config options does is prevent including a minimal amount of code for setting it up. Additionally the option is already automatically selected for most cases. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* [SCHED]: Qdisc changes and sch_rr added for multiqueuePeter P Waskiewicz Jr2007-07-102-15/+125
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the new sch_rr qdisc for multiqueue network device support. Allow sch_prio and sch_rr to be compiled with or without multiqueue hardware support. sch_rr is part of sch_prio, and is referenced from MODULE_ALIAS. This was done since sch_prio and sch_rr only differ in their dequeue routine.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the multiqueue hardware device support API to the core network stack. Allow drivers to allocate multiple queues and manage them at the netdev level if they choose to do so. Added a new field to sk_buff, namely queue_mapping, for drivers to know which tx_ring to select based on OS classification of the flow.

* [NET]: qdisc_restart - couple of optimizations.Krishna Kumar2007-07-101-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changes : - netif_queue_stopped need not be called inside qdisc_restart as it has been called already in qdisc_run() before the first skb is sent, and in __qdisc_run() after each intermediate skb is sent (note : we are the only sender, so the queue cannot get stopped while the tx lock was got in the ~LLTX case). - BUG_ON((int) q->q.qlen < 0) was a relic from old times when -1 meant more packets are available, and __qdisc_run used to loop when qdisc_restart() returned -1. During those days, it was necessary to make sure that qlen is never less than zero, since __qdisc_run would get into an infinite loop if no packets are on the queue and this bug in qdisc was there (and worse - no more skbs could ever get queue'd as we hold the queue lock too). With Herbert's recent change to return values, this check is not required. Hopefully Herbert can validate this change. If at all this is required, it should be added to skb_dequeue (in failure case), and not to qdisc_qlen. Signed-off-by: Krishna Kumar <krkumar2@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [NET]: qdisc_restart - readability changes plus one bug fix.Krishna Kumar2007-07-101-81/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New changes : - Incorporated Peter Waskiewicz's comments. - Re-added back one warning message (on driver returning wrong value). Previous changes : - Converted to use switch/case code which looks neater. - "if (ret == NETDEV_TX_LOCKED && lockless)" is buggy, and the lockless check should be removed, since driver will return NETDEV_TX_LOCKED only if lockless is true and driver has to do the locking. In the original code as well as the latest code, this code can result in a bug where if LLTX is not set for a driver (lockless == 0) but the driver is written wrongly to do a trylock (despite LLTX being set), the driver returns LOCKED. But since lockless is zero, the packet is requeue'd instead of calling collision code which will issue warning and free up the skb. Instead this skb will be retried with this driver next time, and the same result will ensue. Removing this check will catch these driver bugs instead of hiding the problem. I am keeping this change to readability section since : a. it is confusing to check two things as it is; and b. it is difficult to keep this check in the changed 'switch' code. - Changed some names, like try_get_tx_pkt to dev_dequeue_skb (as that is the work being done and easier to understand) and do_dev_requeue to dev_requeue_skb, merged handle_dev_cpu_collision and tx_islocked to dev_handle_collision (handle_dev_cpu_collision is a small routine with only one caller, so there is no need to have two separate routines which also results in getting rid of two macros, etc. - Removed an XXX comment as it should never fail (I suspect this was related to batch skb WIP, Jamal ?). Converted some functions to original coding style of having the return values and the function name on same line, eg prio2list.
