2014-01-18net: introduce SO_BPF_EXTENSIONSMichal Sekletar
For user space packet capturing libraries such as libpcap, there's currently only one way to check which BPF extensions are supported by the kernel, that is, commit aa1113d9f85d ("net: filter: return -EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported"). For querying all extensions at once this might be rather inconvenient. Therefore, this patch introduces a new option which can be used as an argument for getsockopt(), and allows one to obtain information about which BPF extensions are supported by the current kernel. As David Miller suggests, we do not need to define any bits right now and status quo can just return 0 in order to state that this versions supports SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET. Later additions to BPF extensions need to add their bits to the bpf_tell_extensions() function, as documented in the comment.

2014-01-17floppy: bail out in open() if drive is not responding to block0 readJiri Kosina
In case reading of block 0 during open() fails, it is not the right thing to let open() succeed. Fix this by introducing FD_OPEN_SHOULD_FAIL_BIT flag, and setting it in case the bio callback encounters an error while trying to read block 0. As a bonus, this works around certain broken userspace (blkid), which is not able to properly handle read()s returning IO errors. Hence be nice to those, and bail out during open() already; if block 0 is not readable, read()s are not going to provide any meaningful data anyway. Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

2014-01-14md: Change handling of save_raid_disk and metadata update during recovery.NeilBrown
Since commit d70ed2e4fafdbef0800e739 MD: Allow restarting an interrupted incremental recovery. we don't write out the metadata to devices while they are recovering. This had a good reason, but has unfortunate consequences. This patch changes things to make them work better. At issue is what happens if the array is shut down while a recovery is happening, particularly a bitmap-guided recovery. Ideally the recovery should pick up where it left off. However the metadata cannot represent the state "A recovery is in process which is guided by the bitmap". Before the above mentioned commit, we wrote metadata to the device which said "this is being recovered and it is up to <here>". So after a restart, a full recovery (not bitmap-guided) would happen from where-ever it was up to. After the commit the metadata wasn't updated so it still said "This device is fully in sync with <this> event count". That leads to a bitmap-based recovery following the whole bitmap, which should be a lot less work than a full recovery from some starting point. So this was an improvement. However updates some metadata but not all leads to other problems. In particular, the metadata written to the fully-up-to-date device record that the array has all devices present (even though some are recovering). So on restart, mdadm wants to find all devices and expects them to have current event counts. Obviously it doesn't (some have old event counts) so (when assembling with --incremental) it waits indefinitely for the rest of the expected devices. It really is wrong to not update all the metadata together. Do that is bound to cause confusion. Instead, we should make it possible to record the truth in the metadata. i.e. we need to be able to record that a device is being recovered based on the bitmap. We already have a Feature flag to say that recovery is happening. We now add another one to say that it is a bitmap-based recovery. With this we can remove the code that disables the write-out of metadata on some devices. So this patch: - moves the setting of 'saved_raid_disk' from add_new_disk to the validate_super methods. This makes sure it is always set properly, both when adding a new device to an array, and when assembling an array from a collection of devices. - Adds a metadata flag MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_BITMAP which is only used if MD_FEATURE_RECOVERY_OFFSET is set, and record that a bitmap-based recovery is allowed. This is only present in v1.x metadata. v0.90 doesn't support devices which are in the middle of recovery at all. - Only skips writing metadata to Faulty devices. - Also allows rdev state to be set to "-insync" via sysfs. This can be used for external-metadata arrays. When the 'role' is set the device is assumed to be in-sync. If, after setting the role, we set the state to "-insync", the role is moved to saved_raid_disk which effectively says the device is partly in-sync with that slot and needs a bitmap recovery.

2014-01-13sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE structures & implementationDario Faggioli
Introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed for SCHED_DEADLINE implementation. Core data structure of SCHED_DEADLINE are defined, along with their initializers. Hooks for checking if a task belong to the new policy are also added where they are needed. Adds a scheduling class, in sched/dl.c and a new policy called SCHED_DEADLINE. It is an implementation of the Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm, augmented with a mechanism (called Constant Bandwidth Server, CBS) that makes it possible to isolate the behaviour of tasks between each other. The typical -deadline task will be made up of a computation phase (instance) which is activated on a periodic or sporadic fashion. The expected (maximum) duration of such computation is called the task's runtime; the time interval by which each instance need to be completed is called the task's relative deadline. The task's absolute deadline is dynamically calculated as the time instant a task (better, an instance) activates plus the relative deadline. The EDF algorithms selects the task with the smallest absolute deadline as the one to be executed first, while the CBS ensures each task to run for at most its runtime every (relative) deadline length time interval, avoiding any interference between different tasks (bandwidth isolation). Thanks to this feature, also tasks that do not strictly comply with the computational model sketched above can effectively use the new policy. To summarize, this patch: - introduces the data structures, constants and symbols needed; - implements the core logic of the scheduling algorithm in the new scheduling class file; - provides all the glue code between the new scheduling class and the core scheduler and refines the interactions between sched/dl and the other existing scheduling classes.

2014-01-12perf: Introduce a flag to enable close-on-exec in perf_event_open()Yann Droneaud
Unlike recent modern userspace API such as: epoll_create1 (EPOLL_CLOEXEC), eventfd (EFD_CLOEXEC), fanotify_init (FAN_CLOEXEC), inotify_init1 (IN_CLOEXEC), signalfd (SFD_CLOEXEC), timerfd_create (TFD_CLOEXEC), or the venerable general purpose open (O_CLOEXEC), perf_event_open() syscall lack a flag to atomically set FD_CLOEXEC (eg. close-on-exec) flag on file descriptor it returns to userspace. The present patch adds a PERF_FLAG_FD_CLOEXEC flag to allow perf_event_open() syscall to atomically set close-on-exec. Having this flag will enable userspace to remove the file descriptor from the list of file descriptors being inherited across exec, without the need to call fcntl(fd, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC) and the associated race condition between the current thread and another thread calling fork(2) then execve(2).

2014-01-09netfilter: introduce l2tp match extensionJames Chapman
Introduce an xtables add-on for matching L2TP packets. Supports L2TPv2 and L2TPv3 over IPv4 and IPv6. As well as filtering on L2TP tunnel-id and session-id, the filtering decision can also include the L2TP packet type (control or data), protocol version (2 or 3) and encapsulation type (UDP or IP). The most common use for this will likely be to filter L2TP data packets of individual L2TP tunnels or sessions. While a u32 match can be used, the L2TP protocol headers are such that field offsets differ depending on bits set in the header, making rules for matching generic L2TP connections cumbersome. This match extension takes care of all that. Signed-off-by: James Chapman <jchapman@katalix.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2014-01-08GFS2: Add hints to directory leaf blocksSteven Whitehouse
This patch adds four new fields to directory leaf blocks. The intent is not to use them in the kernel itself, although perhaps we may be able to use them as hints at some later date, but instead to provide more information for debug/fsck use. One new field adds a pointer to the inode to which the leaf belongs. This can be useful if the pointer to the leaf block has become corrupt, as it will allow us to know which inode this block should be associated with. This field is set when the leaf is created and never changed over its lifetime. The second field is a "distance from the hash table" field. The meaning is as follows: 0 = An old leaf in which this value has not been set 1 = This leaf is pointed to directly from the hash table 2+ = This leaf is part of a chain, pointed to by another leaf block, the value gives the position in the chain. The third and fourth fields combine to give a time stamp of the most recent directory insertion or deletion from this leaf block. The time stamp is not updated when a new leaf block is chained from the current one. The code is currently written such that the timestamp on the dir inode will match that of the leaf block for the most recent insertion/deletion. For backwards compatibility, any of these new fields which is zero should be considered to be "unknown". Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>

2014-01-06net: pkt_sched: PIE AQM schemeVijay Subramanian
Proportional Integral controller Enhanced (PIE) is a scheduler to address the bufferbloat problem. >From the IETF draft below: " Bufferbloat is a phenomenon where excess buffers in the network cause high latency and jitter. As more and more interactive applications (e.g. voice over IP, real time video streaming and financial transactions) run in the Internet, high latency and jitter degrade application performance. There is a pressing need to design intelligent queue management schemes that can control latency and jitter; and hence provide desirable quality of service to users. We present here a lightweight design, PIE(Proportional Integral controller Enhanced) that can effectively control the average queueing latency to a target value. Simulation results, theoretical analysis and Linux testbed results have shown that PIE can ensure low latency and achieve high link utilization under various congestion situations. The design does not require per-packet timestamp, so it incurs very small overhead and is simple enough to implement in both hardware and software.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nftables Pablo Neira Ayuso says: <pablo@netfilter.org> ==================== nftables updates for net-next The following patchset contains nftables updates for your net-next tree, they are: * Add set operation to the meta expression by means of the select_ops() infrastructure, this allows us to set the packet mark among other things. From Arturo Borrero Gonzalez. * Fix wrong format in sscanf in nf_tables_set_alloc_name(), from Daniel Borkmann. * Add new queue expression to nf_tables. These comes with two previous patches to prepare this new feature, one to add mask in nf_tables_core to evaluate the queue verdict appropriately and another to refactor common code with xt_NFQUEUE, from Eric Leblond. * Do not hide nftables from Kconfig if nfnetlink is not enabled, also from Eric Leblond. * Add the reject expression to nf_tables, this adds the missing TCP RST support. It comes with an initial patch to refactor common code with xt_NFQUEUE, again from Eric Leblond. * Remove an unused variable assignment in nf_tables_dump_set(), from Michal Nazarewicz. * Remove the nft_meta_target code, now that Arturo added the set operation to the meta expression, from me. * Add help information for nf_tables to Kconfig, also from me. * Allow to dump all sets by specifying NFPROTO_UNSPEC, similar feature is available to other nf_tables objects, requested by Arturo, from me. * Expose the table usage counter, so we can know how many chains are using this table without dumping the list of chains, from Tomasz Bursztyka. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree, they are: * Add full port randomization support. Some crazy researchers found a way to reconstruct the secure ephemeral ports that are allocated in random mode by sending off-path bursts of UDP packets to overrun the socket buffer of the DNS resolver to trigger retransmissions, then if the timing for the DNS resolution done by a client is larger than usual, then they conclude that the port that received the burst of UDP packets is the one that was opened. It seems a bit aggressive method to me but it seems to work for them. As a result, Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa came up with a new NAT mode to fully randomize ports using prandom. * Add a new classifier to x_tables based on the socket net_cls set via cgroups. These includes two patches to prepare the field as requested by Zefan Li. Also from Daniel Borkmann. * Use prandom instead of get_random_bytes in several locations of the netfilter code, from Florian Westphal. * Allow to use the CTA_MARK_MASK in ctnetlink when mangling the conntrack mark, also from Florian Westphal. * Fix compilation warning due to unused variable in IPVS, from Geert Uytterhoeven. * Add support for UID/GID via nfnetlink_queue, from Valentina Giusti. * Add IPComp extension to x_tables, from Fan Du. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
