2016-06-15bpf, maps: flush own entries on perf map releaseDaniel Borkmann
The behavior of perf event arrays are quite different from all others as they are tightly coupled to perf event fds, f.e. shown recently by commit e03e7ee34fdd ("perf/bpf: Convert perf_event_array to use struct file") to make refcounting on perf event more robust. A remaining issue that the current code still has is that since additions to the perf event array take a reference on the struct file via perf_event_get() and are only released via fput() (that cleans up the perf event eventually via perf_event_release_kernel()) when the element is either manually removed from the map from user space or automatically when the last reference on the perf event map is dropped. However, this leads us to dangling struct file's when the map gets pinned after the application owning the perf event descriptor exits, and since the struct file reference will in such case only be manually dropped or via pinned file removal, it leads to the perf event living longer than necessary, consuming needlessly resources for that time. Relations between perf event fds and bpf perf event map fds can be rather complex. F.e. maps can act as demuxers among different perf event fds that can possibly be owned by different threads and based on the index selection from the program, events get dispatched to one of the per-cpu fd endpoints. One perf event fd (or, rather a per-cpu set of them) can also live in multiple perf event maps at the same time, listening for events. Also, another requirement is that perf event fds can get closed from application side after they have been attached to the perf event map, so that on exit perf event map will take care of dropping their references eventually. Likewise, when such maps are pinned, the intended behavior is that a user application does bpf_obj_get(), puts its fds in there and on exit when fd is released, they are dropped from the map again, so the map acts rather as connector endpoint. This also makes perf event maps inherently different from program arrays as described in more detail in commit c9da161c6517 ("bpf: fix clearing on persistent program array maps"). To tackle this, map entries are marked by the map struct file that added the element to the map. And when the last reference to that map struct file is released from user space, then the tracked entries are purged from the map. This is okay, because new map struct files instances resp. frontends to the anon inode are provided via bpf_map_new_fd() that is called when we invoke bpf_obj_get_user() for retrieving a pinned map, but also when an initial instance is created via map_create(). The rest is resolved by the vfs layer automatically for us by keeping reference count on the map's struct file. Any concurrent updates on the map slot are fine as well, it just means that perf_event_fd_array_release() needs to delete less of its own entires.

2016-06-15bpf, maps: extend map_fd_get_ptr argumentsDaniel Borkmann
This patch extends map_fd_get_ptr() callback that is used by fd array maps, so that struct file pointer from the related map can be passed in. It's safe to remove map_update_elem() callback for the two maps since this is only allowed from syscall side, but not from eBPF programs for these two map types. Like in per-cpu map case, bpf_fd_array_map_update_elem() needs to be called directly here due to the extra argument.

2016-06-15sfc: VLAN filters must only be created if the firmware supports this.Martin Habets
If it is not supported we simply disable the feature. For the feature to work we need firmware filter support for OUTER_VID + LOC_MAC and for OUTER_VID + LOC_MAC_IG. The low-latency firmware can match on OUTER_VID + LOC_MAC but not on OUTER_VID + LOC_MAC_IG. For the capture packet firmware it is the other way around. Only the full-feature variant can match on both combinations. Incorporates a fix by Andrew Rybchenko <Andrew.Rybchenko@oktetlabs.ru> in the net_dev->[hw_]features handling.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: Rework endpoint record handling Here's the next part of the AF_RXRPC rewrite. In this set I rework endpoint record handling. There are two types of endpoint record, local and peer. The local endpoint record is used as an anchor for the transport socket that AF_RXRPC uses (at the moment a UDP socket). Local endpoints can be shared between AF_RXRPC sockets under certain restricted circumstances. The peer endpoint is a record of the remote end. It is (or will be) used to keep track MTU and RTT values and, with these changes, is used to find the call(s) to abort when a network error occurs. The following significant changes are made: (1) The local endpoint event handling code is split out into its own file. (2) The local endpoint list bottom half-excluding spinlock is removed as things are arranged such that sk_user_data will not change whilst the transport socket callbacks are in progress. (3) Local endpoints can now only be shared if they have the same transport address (as before) and have a local service ID of 0 (ie. they're not listening for incoming calls). This prevents callbacks from a server to one process being picked up by another process. (4) Local endpoint destruction is now accomplished by the same work item as processes events, meaning that the destructor doesn't need to wait for the event processor. (5) Peer endpoints are now held in a hash table rather than a flat list. (6) Peer endpoints are now destroyed by RCU rather than by work item. (7) Peer endpoints are now differentiated by local endpoint and remote transport port in addition to remote transport address and transport type and family. This means that a firewall that excludes access between a particular local port and remote port won't cause calls to be aborted that use a different port pair. (8) Error report handling now no longer assumes that the source is always an IPv4 ICMP message from a UDP port and has assumptions that an ICMP message comes from an IPv4 socket removed. At some point IPv6 support will be added. (9) Peer endpoints rather than local endpoints are now the anchor point for distributing network error reports. (10) Both types of endpoint records are now disposed of as soon as all references to them are gone. There is less hanging around and once their usage counts hit zero, records can no longer be resurrected. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-06-15ila: Fix checksum neutral mappingTom Herbert
The algorithm for checksum neutral mapping is incorrect. This problem was being hidden since we were previously always performing checksum offload on the translated addresses and only with IPv6 HW csum. Enabling an ILA router shows the issue. Corrected algorithm: old_loc is the original locator in the packet, new_loc is the value to overwrite with and is found in the lookup table. old_flag is the old flag value (zero of CSUM_NEUTRAL_FLAG) and new_flag is then (old_flag ^ CSUM_NEUTRAL_FLAG) & CSUM_NEUTRAL_FLAG. Need SUM(new_id + new_flag + diff) == SUM(old_id + old_flag) for checksum neutral translation. Solving for diff gives: diff = (old_id - new_id) + (old_flag - new_flag) compute_csum_diff8(new_id, old_id) gives old_id - new_id If old_flag is set old_flag - new_flag = old_flag = CSUM_NEUTRAL_FLAG Else old_flag - new_flag = -new_flag = ~CSUM_NEUTRAL_FLAG Tested: - Implemented a user space program that creates random addresses and random locators to overwrite. Compares the checksum over the address before and after translation (must always be equal) - Enabled ILA router and showed proper operation.

2016-06-15Merge branch '6lowpan-ndisc'David S. Miller
Alexander Aring says: ==================== 6lowpan: introduce 6lowpan-nd David can you please pick-up this patch-serie for your net-next tree? Thanks in advance. This patch series introduces the ndisc ops callback structure to add different handling for IPv6 neighbour discovery cache functionality. It implements at first the two following use-cases: - 6CO handling as userspace option (For all 6LoWPAN layers, BTLE/802.15.4) [0] - short address handling for 802.15.4 6LoWPAN only [1] Since my last patch series, I completely changed the whole ndisc_ops callback structure to not replace the whole ndisc functionality at recv/send level of NS/NA/RS/RA which I send in my previous patch-series "6lowpan: introduce basic 6lowpan-nd". I changed it now to add different handling in a very low-level way of ndisc functionality. The ndisc_ops don't must be registered to dev->ndisc_ops anymore, if they are not set, then no additional ipv6 ndisc handling will be done. This patch series now introduce a complete handling of short address for 802.15.4 6LoWPAN in case of send/recv of NA/NS/RS and RA. In case of RA (receive only) and PIO we also need a second prefix + short-address based address. This callback structure can be used later (I hope) for RFC 6775 [0]. This RFC defines some new option fields and messages for 6LoWPAN-ND. This patch series does not implement RFC 6775 (except we decide now to handle 6CO in userspace). Additional we can use the current ops for parse/fill ndisc options for kernel handled ndisc messages to add 6CIO, see [2]. I tested RA/NS/NA/RS messages with short address which seems to work, what I didn't test is the redirect messages since I don't know how to generate them. The short address for redirect messages are also some special case here, because the short address by a L3 target address lookuped by neighbour cache need to be added. btw: According to [3] sending redirect messages should be also disabled by default on 6lowpan interfaces, but can be activated afterwards. This is maybe something for the ipv6_devconf structure. There is a "accept_redirects" but no "disable_redirects". - Alex [0] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6775 [1] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4944#section-8 [2] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7400 changes since v3: - add acked-by and reviewed-by tags - fix url references in cover-letter - add cover-letter that this patch series is okay to go through net-next tree changes since RFC: - add lowlevel functions __ndisc_opt_addr_space, __ndisc_opt_addr_data and __ndisc_fill_addr_option for corresponding functions which doesn't requires net_device argument. - move ndisc_ops e.g. ndisc_ops_fill_addr_option function call into the corresponding device argument function ndisc_fill_addr_option. (Introduced a special static inline function for redirect handling). - fix error handling in addrconf_prefix_rcv_add_addr. (Please see, introduce new API handling that second address registration (in case of 802.15.4 6LoWPAN) will still be notified if failed, because dev->addr was successful. - add ieee802154 sub-directory in short address entry for 6lowpan UAPI. - add lowpan_802154_is_valid_src_short_addr, because 802.15.4 6lowpan defines the first bit as multicast (don't know how this can be working at the end, because some hardware addresses will handle such addresses in L2 as unicast.

2016-06-156lowpan: introduce 6lowpan-ndAlexander Aring
This patch introduce different 6lowpan handling for receive and transmit NS/NA messages for the ipv6 neighbour discovery. The first use-case is for supporting 802.15.4 short addresses inside the option fields and handling for RFC6775 6CO option field as userspace option. Cc: David S.

2016-06-15ipv6: introduce neighbour discovery opsAlexander Aring
This patch introduces neighbour discovery ops callback structure. The idea is to separate the handling for 6LoWPAN into the 6lowpan module. These callback offers 6lowpan different handling, such as 802.15.4 short address handling or RFC6775 (Neighbor Discovery Optimization for IPv6 over 6LoWPANs). Cc: David S.
