Convert alb_send_learning_packets and bond_has_this_ip to use the new netdev_walk_all_upper_dev_rcu API. In both cases this is just a code conversion; no functional change is intended. v2 - removed typecast of data and simplified bond_upper_dev_walk Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-07-01bonding: prevent out of bound accessesEric Dumazet
ether_addr_equal_64bits() requires some care about its arguments, namely that 8 bytes might be read, even if last 2 byte values are not used. KASan detected a violation with null_mac_addr and lacpdu_mcast_addr in bond_3ad.c Same problem with mac_bcast[] and mac_v6_allmcast[] in bond_alb.c : Although the 8-byte alignment was there, KASan would detect out of bound accesses.

2014-10-31bonding: add bond_tx_drop() helperEric Dumazet
Because bonding stats are usually sum of slave stats, it was not easy to account for tx drops at bonding layer. We can use dev->tx_dropped for this, as this counter is later added to the device stats (in dev_get_stats()) This extends the idea we had in commit ee6377147409a ("bonding: Simplify the xmit function for modes that use xmit_hash") for bond_3ad_xor_xmit() to other bonding modes.

2014-10-06bonding: Simplify the xmit function for modes that use xmit_hashMahesh Bandewar
Earlier change to use usable slave array for TLB mode had an additional performance advantage. So extending the same logic to all other modes that use xmit-hash for slave selection (viz 802.3AD, and XOR modes). Also consolidating this with the earlier TLB change. The main idea is to build the usable slaves array in the control path and use that array for slave selection during xmit operation. Measured performance in a setup with a bond of 4x1G NICs with 200 instances of netperf for the modes involved (3ad, xor, tlb) cmd: netperf -t TCP_RR -H <TargetHost> -l 60 -s 5 Mode TPS-Before TPS-After 802.3ad : 468,694 493,101 TLB (lb=0): 392,583 392,965 XOR : 475,696 484,517 Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

First adjust a couple of locking comments that were left inaccurate, then adjust comments to use the netdev styling and remove extra new lines where necessary and add a couple of new lines between declarations and code. These are all trivial styling changes, no functional change. Also removed a couple of outdated or obvious comments.

2014-09-13bonding: clean curr_slave_lock useNikolay Aleksandrov
Mostly all users of curr_slave_lock already have RTNL as we've discussed previously so there's no point in using it, the one case where the lock must stay is the 3ad code, in fact it's the only one. It's okay to remove it from bond_do_fail_over_mac() as it's called with RTNL and drops the curr_slave_lock anyway. bond_change_active_slave() is one of the main places where curr_slave_lock was used, it's okay to remove it as all callers use RTNL these days before calling it, that's why we move the ASSERT_RTNL() in the beginning to catch any potential offenders to this rule. The RTNL argument actually applies to all of the places where curr_slave_lock has been removed from in this patch. Also remove the unnecessary bond_deref_active_protected() macro and use rtnl_dereference() instead. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-09-13bonding: alb: remove curr_slave_lockNikolay Aleksandrov
First in rlb_teach_disabled_mac_on_primary() it's okay to remove curr_slave_lock as all callers except bond_alb_monitor() already hold RTNL, and in case bond_alb_monitor() is executing we can at most have a period with bad throughput (very unlikely though). In bond_alb_monitor() it's okay to remove the read_lock as the slave list is walked with RCU and the worst that could happen is another transmitter at the same time and thus for a period which currently is 10 seconds (bond_alb.h: BOND_ALB_LP_TICKS). And bond_alb_handle_active_change() is okay because it's always called with RTNL. Removed the ASSERT_RTNL() because it'll be inserted in the parent function in a following patch.

This "rcu_dereference()" call is used directly in a condition. Since its return value is never dereferenced it is recommended to use "rcu_access_pointer()" instead of "rcu_dereference()". Therefore, this patch makes this replacement.

2014-07-16bonding: Do not try to send packets over dead link in TLB mode.Mahesh Bandewar
In TLB mode if tlb_dynamic_lb is NOT set, slaves from the bond group are selected based on the hash distribution. This does not exclude dead links which are part of the bond. Also if there is a temporary link event which brings down the interface, packets hashed on that interface would be dropped too. This patch fixes these issues and distributes flows across the UP links only. Also the array construction of links which are capable of sending packets happen in the control path leaving only link-selection during the data-path. One possible side effect of this is - at a link event; all flows will be shuffled to get good distribution. But impact of this should be minimum with the assumption that a member or members of the bond group are not available is a very temporary situation.

2014-06-04bonding: Support macvlans on top of tlb/rlb mode bondsVlad Yasevich
To make TLB mode work, the patch allows learning packets to be sent using mac addresses assigned to macvlan devices, also taking into an account vlans that may be between the bond and macvlan device. To make RLB work, all we have to do is accept ARP packets for addresses added to the bond dev->uc list. Since RLB mode will take care to update the peers directly with correct mac addresses, learning packets for these addresses do not have be send to switch.

2014-05-22bonding: Send ALB learning packets using the right sourceVlad Yasevich
ALB learning packets are currentlyalways sent using the slave mac address for all vlans configured on top of bond. This is not always correct, as vlans may change their mac address. This patch introduced a concept of strict matching where the source of learning packets can either strictly match the address passed in, or it can determine a more correct address to use. There are 3 casese to consider: 1) Switchover. In this case, we have a new active slave and we need tell the switch about all addresses available on the slave. 2) Monitor. We'll periodically refresh learning info for all slaves. In this case, we refresh all addresses for current active, and just the slave address for other slaves. 3) Teaching of disabled adddress. This happens as part of the failover and in this case, we alwyas to use just the address provided.

2014-04-24bonding: Add tlb_dynamic_lb parameter for tlb modeMahesh Bandewar
The aggresive load balancing causes packet re-ordering as active flows are moved from a slave to another within the group. Sometime this aggresive lb is not necessary if the preference is for less re-ordering. This parameter if used with value "0" disables this dynamic flow shuffling minimizing packet re-ordering. Of course the side effect is that it has to live with the static load balancing that the hashing distribution provides. This impact is less severe if the correct xmit-hashing-policy is used for the tlb setup. The default value of the parameter is set to "1" mimicing the earlier behavior. Ran the netperf test with 200 stream for 1 min between two hosts with 4x1G trunk (xmit-lb mode with xmit-policy L3+4) before and after these changes. Following was the command used for those 200 instances - netperf -t TCP_RR -l 60 -s 5 -H <host> -- -r81920,81920 Transactions per second: Before change: 1,367.11 After change: 1,470.65 Change-Id: Ie3f75c77282cf602e83a6e833c6eb164e72a0990 Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-10-27bonding: remove bond read lock for bond_alb_monitor()dingtianhong
The bond slave list may change when the monitor is running, the slave list is no longer protected by bond->lock, only protected by rtnl lock(), so we have 3 ways to modify it: 1.add bond_master_upper_dev_link() and bond_upper_dev_unlink() in bond->lock, but it is unsafe to call call_netdevice_notifiers() in write lock. 2.remove unused bond->lock for monitor function, only use the existing rtnl lock(). 3.use rcu_read_lock() to protect it, of course, it will transform bond_for_each_slave to bond_for_each_slave_rcu() and performance is better, but in slow path, it is ignored. so I remove the bond->lock and move the rtnl lock to protect the whole monitor function.
