2015-05-11net: Pass kern from net_proto_family.create to sk_allocEric W. Biederman
In preparation for changing how struct net is refcounted on kernel sockets pass the knowledge that we are creating a kernel socket from sock_create_kern through to sk_alloc. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-05-11tun: Utilize the normal socket network namespace refcounting.Eric W. Biederman
There is no need for tun to do the weird network namespace refcounting. The existing network namespace refcounting in tfile has almost exactly the same lifetime. So rewrite the code to use the struct sock network namespace refcounting and remove the unnecessary hand rolled network namespace refcounting and the unncesary tfile->net. This change allows the tun code to directly call sock_put bypassing sock_release and making SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED unnecessary. Remove the now unncessary tun_release so that if anything tries to use the sock_release code path the kernel will oops, and let us know about the bug. The macvtap code already uses it's internal socket this way. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-03-02net: Remove iocb argument from sendmsg and recvmsgYing Xue
After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now. Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire networking stack.

2015-02-08net: rfs: add hash collision detectionEric Dumazet
Receive Flow Steering is a nice solution but suffers from hash collisions when a mix of connected and unconnected traffic is received on the host, when flow hash table is populated. Also, clearing flow in inet_release() makes RFS not very good for short lived flows, as many packets can follow close(). (FIN , ACK packets, ...) This patch extends the information stored into global hash table to not only include cpu number, but upper part of the hash value. I use a 32bit value, and dynamically split it in two parts. For host with less than 64 possible cpus, this gives 6 bits for the cpu number, and 26 (32-6) bits for the upper part of the hash. Since hash bucket selection use low order bits of the hash, we have a full hash match, if /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries is big enough. If the hash found in flow table does not match, we fallback to RPS (if it is enabled for the rxqueue). This means that a packet for an non connected flow can avoid the IPI through a unrelated/victim CPU. This also means we no longer have to clear the table at socket close time, and this helps short lived flows performance.

Conflicts: drivers/net/vxlan.c drivers/vhost/net.c include/linux/if_vlan.h net/core/dev.c The net/core/dev.c conflict was the overlap of one commit marking an existing function static whilst another was adding a new function. In the include/linux/if_vlan.h case, the type used for a local variable was changed in 'net', whereas the function got rewritten to fix a stacked vlan bug in 'net-next'. In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next' overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'. In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

2015-01-12tuntap: Increase the number of queues in tun.Pankaj Gupta
Networking under kvm works best if we allocate a per-vCPU RX and TX queue in a virtual NIC. This requires a per-vCPU queue on the host side. It is now safe to increase the maximum number of queues. Preceding patch: 'net: allow large number of rx queues' made sure this won't cause failures due to high order memory allocations. Increase it to 256: this is the max number of vCPUs KVM supports. Size of tun_struct changes from 8512 to 10496 after this patch. This keeps pages allocated for tun_struct before and after the patch to 3.

2014-10-30drivers/net: Disable UFO through virtioBen Hutchings
IPv6 does not allow fragmentation by routers, so there is no fragmentation ID in the fixed header. UFO for IPv6 requires the ID to be passed separately, but there is no provision for this in the virtio net protocol. Until recently our software implementation of UFO/IPv6 generated a new ID, but this was a bug. Now we will use ID=0 for any UFO/IPv6 packet passed through a tap, which is even worse. Unfortunately there is no distinction between UFO/IPv4 and v6 features, so disable UFO on taps and virtio_net completely until we have a proper solution. We cannot depend on VM managers respecting the tap feature flags, so keep accepting UFO packets but log a warning the first time we do this.

2014-05-21net-tun: restructure tun_do_read for better sleep/wakeup efficiencyXi Wang
tun_do_read always adds current thread to wait queue, even if a packet is ready to read. This is inefficient because both sleeper and waker want to acquire the wait queue spin lock when packet rate is high. We restructure the read function and use common kernel networking routines to handle receive, sleep and wakeup. With the change available packets are checked first before the reading thread is added to the wait queue. Ran performance tests with the following configuration: - my packet generator -> tap1 -> br0 -> tap0 -> my packet consumer - sender pinned to one core and receiver pinned to another core - sender send small UDP packets (64 bytes total) as fast as it can - sandy bridge cores - throughput are receiver side goodput numbers The results are baseline: 731k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.50 cpus changed: 783k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.53 cpus The performance difference is largely determined by packet rate and inter-cpu communication cost. For example, if the sender and receiver are pinned to different cpu sockets, the results are baseline: 558k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.71 cpus changed: 690k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.67 cpus Co-authored-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Xi Wang <xii@google.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

2014-02-17netdevice: add queue selection fallback handler for ndo_select_queueDaniel Borkmann
Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by: David S.

2014-01-22tuntap: Fix for a race in accessing numqueuesDominic Curran
A patch for fixing a race between queue selection and changing queues was introduced in commit 92bb73ea2("tuntap: fix a possible race between queue selection and changing queues"). The fix was to prevent the driver from re-reading the tun->numqueues more than once within tun_select_queue() using ACCESS_ONCE(). We have been experiancing 'Divide-by-zero' errors in tun_net_xmit() since we moved from 3.6 to 3.10, and believe that they come from a simular source where the value of tun->numqueues changes to zero between the first and a subsequent read of tun->numqueues. The fix is a simular use of ACCESS_ONCE(), as well as a multiply instead of a divide in the if statement.

2014-01-10net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwardingJason Wang
Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

2014-01-02tun, rfs: fix the incorrect hash valueZhi Yong Wu
The code incorrectly save the queue index as the hash, so this patch is fixing it with the hash received in the stack receive path. Signed-off-by: Zhi Yong Wu <wuzhy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-12-31tun: Add support for RFS on tun flowsTom Herbert
This patch adds support so that the rps_flow_tables (RFS) can be programmed using the tun flows which are already set up to track flows for the purposes of queue selection. On the receive path (corresponding to select_queue and tun_net_xmit) the rxhash is saved in the flow_entry. The original code only does flow lookup in select_queue, so this patch adds a flow lookup in tun_net_xmit if num_queues == 1 (select_queue is not called from dev_queue_xmit->netdev_pick_tx in that case). The flow is recorded (processing CPU) in tun_flow_update (TX path), and reset when flow is deleted.

2013-12-11tun: unbreak truncated packet signallingJason Wang
Commit 6680ec68eff47d36f67b4351bc9836fd6cba9532 (tuntap: hardware vlan tx support) breaks the truncated packet signal by nev return a length greater than iov length in tun_put_user(). This patch fixes by always return the length of packet plus possible vlan header. Caller can detect the truncated packet by comparing the return value and the size of io length.
