* xen-netback: take a reference to the RX task threadRoger Pau Monne2021-06-071-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do this in order to prevent the task from being freed if the thread returns (which can be triggered by the frontend) before the call to kthread_stop done as part of the backend tear down. Not taking the reference will lead to a use-after-free in that scenario. Such reference was taken before but dropped as part of the rework done in 2ac061ce97f4. Reintroduce the reference taking and add a comment this time explaining why it's needed. This is XSA-374 / CVE-2021-28691.

* xen-netback: support dynamic unbind/bindPaul Durrant2019-12-261-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | By re-attaching RX, TX, and CTL rings during connect() rather than assuming they are freshly allocated (i.e. assuming the counters are zero), and avoiding forcing state to Closed in netback_remove() it is possible for vif instances to be unbound and re-bound from and to (respectively) a running guest. Dynamic unbind/bind is a highly useful feature for a backend module as it allows it to be unloaded and re-loaded (i.e. updated) without requiring domUs to be halted. This has been tested by running iperf as a server in the test VM and then running a client against it in a continuous loop, whilst also running: while true; do echo vif-$DOMID-$VIF >unbind; echo down; rmmod xen-netback; echo unloaded; modprobe xen-netback; cd $(pwd); brctl addif xenbr0 vif$DOMID.$VIF; ip link set vif$DOMID.$VIF up; echo up; sleep 5; done in dom0 from /sys/bus/xen-backend/drivers/vif to continuously unbind, unload, re-load, re-bind and re-plumb the backend. Clearly a performance drop was seen but no TCP connection resets were observed during this test and moreover a parallel SSH connection into the guest remained perfectly usable throughout.

Daniel's bug fix for off-by-ones in the new BPF branch instructions, along with the added allowances for "data_end > ptr + x" forms collided with the metadata additions. Along with those three changes came veritifer test cases, which in their final form I tried to group together properly. If I had just trimmed GIT's conflict tags as-is, this would have split up the meta tests unnecessarily. In the socketmap code, a set of preemption disabling changes overlapped with the rename of bpf_compute_data_end() to bpf_compute_data_pointers(). Changes were made to the mv88e6060.c driver set addr method which got removed in net-next.

* xen-netback: make sure that hashes are not send to unaware frontendsPaul Durrant2016-10-071-11/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the case when a frontend only negotiates a single queue with xen- netback it is possible for a skbuff with a s/w hash to result in a hash extra_info segment being sent to the frontend even when no hash algorithm has been configured. (The ndo_select_queue() entry point makes sure the hash is not set if no algorithm is configured, but this entry point is not called when there is only a single queue). This can result in a frontend that is unable to handle extra_info segments being given such a segment, causing it to crash. This patch fixes the problem by clearing the hash in ndo_start_xmit() instead, which is clearly guaranteed to be called irrespective of the number of queues.

* xen-netback: only deinitialized hash if it was initializedPaul Durrant2016-05-201-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A domain with a frontend that does not implement a control ring has been seen to cause a crash during domain save. This was apparently because the call to xenvif_deinit_hash() in xenvif_disconnect_ctrl() is made regardless of whether a control ring was connected, and hence xenvif_hash_init() was called. This patch brings the call to xenvif_deinit_hash() in xenvif_disconnect_ctrl() inside the if clause that checks whether the control ring event channel was connected. This is sufficient to ensure it is only called if xenvif_init_hash() was called previously.

* xen-netback: pass hash value to the frontendPaul Durrant2016-05-161-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | My recent patch to include/xen/interface/io/netif.h defines a new extra info type that can be used to pass hash values between backend and guest frontend. This patch adds code to xen-netback to pass hash values calculated for guest receive-side packets (i.e. netback transmit side) to the frontend.

* xen-netback: add control protocol implementationPaul Durrant2016-05-161-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | My recent patch to include/xen/interface/io/netif.h defines a new shared ring (in addition to the rx and tx rings) for passing control messages from a VM frontend driver to a backend driver. A previous patch added the necessary boilerplate for mapping the control ring from the frontend, should it be created. This patch adds implementations for each of the defined protocol messages.

* xen-netback: free queues after freeing the net deviceDavid Vrabel2016-01-151-11/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | If a queue still has a NAPI instance added to the net device, freeing the queues early results in a use-after-free. The shouldn't ever happen because we disconnect and tear down all queues before freeing the net device, but doing this makes it obviously safe.

* xen-netback: add support for multicast controlPaul Durrant2015-09-021-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Xen's PV network protocol includes messages to add/remove ethernet multicast addresses to/from a filter list in the backend. This allows the frontend to request the backend only forward multicast packets which are of interest thus preventing unnecessary noise on the shared ring. The canonical netif header in git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git specifies the message format (two more XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPEs) so the minimal necessary changes have been pulled into include/xen/interface/io/netif.h. To prevent the frontend from extending the multicast filter list arbitrarily a limit (XEN_NETBK_MCAST_MAX) has been set to 64 entries. This limit is not specified by the protocol and so may change in future. If the limit is reached then the next XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_ADD sent by the frontend will be failed with NETIF_RSP_ERROR.

* xen/netback: Wake dealloc thread after completing zerocopy workRoss Lagerwall2015-08-061-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | Waking the dealloc thread before decrementing inflight_packets is racy because it means the thread may go to sleep before inflight_packets is decremented. If kthread_stop() has already been called, the dealloc thread may wait forever with nothing to wake it. Instead, wake the thread only after decrementing inflight_packets.

* xen-netback: making the bandwidth limiter runtime settablePalik, Imre2015-03-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | With the current netback, the bandwidth limiter's parameters are only settable during vif setup time. This patch register a watch on them, and thus makes them runtime changeable. When the watch fires, the timer is reset. The timer's mutex is used for fencing the change.
