| | * netfilter: fix race in conntrack between dump_table and destroyStephen Hemminger2011-01-111-9/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a conntrack entry was being destroyed. (see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402). According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed further down the linked list. The old code would continue which caused the scan to walk into the free list. This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while doing dump operation.

| | * netfilter: x_tables: dont block BH while reading countersEric Dumazet2011-01-104-94/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Using "iptables -L" with a lot of rules have a too big BH latency. Jesper mentioned ~6 ms and worried of frame drops. Switch to a per_cpu seqlock scheme, so that taking a snapshot of counters doesnt need to block BH (for this cpu, but also other cpus). This adds two increments on seqlock sequence per ipt_do_table() call, its a reasonable cost for allowing "iptables -L" not block BH processing.

Note : a prior patch tried to address the problem in a different (and buggy) way. (commit fda48a0d7a8412ced tcp: bind() fix when many ports are bound).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPv4 over firewire needs to be able to remove ARP entries from the ARP cache that belong to nodes that are removed, because IPv4 over firewire uses ARP packets for private information about nodes. This information becomes invalid as soon as node drops off the bus and when it reconnects, its only possible to start talking to it after it responded to an ARP packet. But ARP cache prevents such packets from being sent. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <maximlevitsky@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to compute the features for other offloads (primarily scatter/gather), we need to first check the ability of the NIC to offload the checksum for the packet. Since we have already computed this, we can directly use the result instead of figuring it out again. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * net offloading: Convert skb_need_linearize() to use precomputed features.Jesse Gross2011-01-091-15/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This switches skb_need_linearize() to use the features that have been centrally computed. In doing so, this fixes a problem where scatter/gather should not be used because the card does not support checksum offloading on that type of packet. On device registration we only check that some form of checksum offloading is available if scatter/gatther is enabled but we must also check at transmission time. Examples of this include IPv6 or vlan packets on a NIC that only supports IPv4 offloading. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This switches dev_gso_segment() to use the device features computed by the centralized routine.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that there is a single function that can compute the device features relevant to a packet, we don't want to run it for each offload. This converts netif_needs_gso() to take the features of the device, rather than computing them itself. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().Jesse Gross2011-01-091-8/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | netif_get_vlan_features() is currently only used by netif_needs_gso(), so it only concerns itself with GSO features. However, several other places also should take into account the contents of the packet when deciding whether to offload to hardware. This generalizes the function to return features about all of the various forms of offloading. Since offloads tend to be linked together, this avoids duplicating the logic in each location (i.e. the scatter/gather code also needs the checksum logic).

| * net offloading: Accept NETIF_F_HW_CSUM for all protocols.Jesse Gross2011-01-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently only have software fallback for one type of checksum: the TCP/UDP one's complement. This means that a protocol that uses hardware offloading for a different type of checksum (FCoE, SCTP) must directly check the device's features and do the right thing ahead of time. By the time we get to dev_can_checksum(), we're only deciding whether to apply the one algorithm in software or hardware. NETIF_F_HW_CSUM has the same capabilities as the software version, so we should always use it if present. The primary advantage of this is multiply tagged vlans can use hardware checksumming.

| | * dccp: make upper bound for seq_window consistent on 32/64 bitGerrit Renker2011-01-071-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'seq_window' sysctl sets the initial value for the DCCP Sequence Window, which may range from 32..2^46-1 (RFC 4340, 7.5.2). The patch sets the upper bound consistently to 2^32-1 on both 32 and 64 bit systems, which should be sufficient - with a RTT of 1sec and 1-byte packets, a seq_window of 2^32-1 corresponds to a link speed of 34 Gbps.

Cheers Trond -------------------------- SUNRPC: Fix a BUG in __rpc_create_common From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com> Mi Jinlong reports: When testing NFSv4 at RHEL6 with kernel 2.6.32, I got a kernel panic at NFS client's __rpc_create_common function. The panic place is: rpc_mkpipe __rpc_lookup_create() <=== find pipefile *idmap* __rpc_mkpipe() <=== pipefile is *idmap* __rpc_create_common() ****** BUG_ON(!d_unhashed(dentry)); ****** *panic* The test is wrong: we can find ourselves with a hashed negative dentry here if the idmapper tried to look up the file before we got round to creating it.

The trend in the other XDR encoder functions is to BUG() when encoding problems occur, since a problem here is always due to a local coding error. Then, instead of a status, zero is unconditionally returned. Update the rpcbind XDR encoders to behave this way. To finish the update, use the new-style be32_to_cpup() and cpu_to_be32() macros, and compute the buffer sizes using raw integers instead of sizeof(). This matches the conventions used in other XDR functions. Signed-off-by: Chuck Lever <chuck.lever@oracle.com> Tested-by: J.

We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup, which often go to the same mount point. The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs that may have taken a reference count. We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less frequently. - check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts). - keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a particular CPU which requires more locking). - keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then, keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references, and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0. This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is a short reference. This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running in them. This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash. Signed-off-by: Nick Piggin <npiggin@kernel.dk>
