2017-11-08netpoll: Use lockdep to assert IRQs are disabled/enabledFrederic Weisbecker
Use lockdep to check that IRQs are enabled or disabled as expected. This way the sanity check only shows overhead when concurrency correctness debug code is enabled.

2017-07-26netpoll: Fix device name check in netpoll_setup()Matthias Kaehlcke
Apparently netpoll_setup() assumes that netpoll.dev_name is a pointer when checking if the device name is set: if (np->dev_name) { ... However the field is a character array, therefore the condition always yields true. Check instead whether the first byte of the array has a non-zero value.

2017-07-14netpoll: shut up a kernel warning on refcountWANG Cong
When we convert atomic_t to refcount_t, a new kernel warning on "increment on 0" is introduced in the netpoll code, zap_completion_queue(). In fact for this special case, we know the refcount is 0 and we just have to set it to 1 to satisfy the following dev_kfree_skb_any(), so we can just use refcount_set(..., 1) instead.

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *, and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not. Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - fn(SKB, LEN)[0] + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

2017-04-21netpoll: Check for skb->queue_mappingTushar Dave
Reducing real_num_tx_queues needs to be in sync with skb queue_mapping otherwise skbs with queue_mapping greater than real_num_tx_queues can be sent to the underlying driver and can result in kernel panic. One such event is running netconsole and enabling VF on the same device. Or running netconsole and changing number of tx queues via ethtool on same device. e.g. Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference tsk->{mm,active_mm}->context = 0000000000001525 tsk->{mm,active_mm}->pgd = fff800130ff9a000 \|/ ____ \|/ "@'/ .. \`@" /_| \__/ |_\ \__U_/ kworker/48:1(475): Oops [#1] CPU: 48 PID: 475 Comm: kworker/48:1 Tainted: G OE 4.11.0-rc3-davem-net+ #7 Workqueue: events queue_process task: fff80013113299c0 task.stack: fff800131132c000 TSTATE: 0000004480e01600 TPC: 00000000103f9e3c TNPC: 00000000103f9e40 Y: 00000000 Tainted: G OE TPC: <ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring+0x7c/0x6c0 [ixgbe]> g0: 0000000000000000 g1: 0000000000003fff g2: 0000000000000000 g3: 0000000000000001 g4: fff80013113299c0 g5: fff8001fa6808000 g6: fff800131132c000 g7: 00000000000000c0 o0: fff8001fa760c460 o1: fff8001311329a50 o2: fff8001fa7607504 o3: 0000000000000003 o4: fff8001f96e63a40 o5: fff8001311d77ec0 sp: fff800131132f0e1 ret_pc: 000000000049ed94 RPC: <set_next_entity+0x34/0xb80> l0: 0000000000000000 l1: 0000000000000800 l2: 0000000000000000 l3: 0000000000000000 l4: 000b2aa30e34b10d l5: 0000000000000000 l6: 0000000000000000 l7: fff8001fa7605028 i0: fff80013111a8a00 i1: fff80013155a0780 i2: 0000000000000000 i3: 0000000000000000 i4: 0000000000000000 i5: 0000000000100000 i6: fff800131132f1a1 i7: 00000000103fa4b0 I7: <ixgbe_xmit_frame+0x30/0xa0 [ixgbe]> Call Trace: [00000000103fa4b0] ixgbe_xmit_frame+0x30/0xa0 [ixgbe] [0000000000998c74] netpoll_start_xmit+0xf4/0x200 [0000000000998e10] queue_process+0x90/0x160 [0000000000485fa8] process_one_work+0x188/0x480 [0000000000486410] worker_thread+0x170/0x4c0 [000000000048c6b8] kthread+0xd8/0x120 [0000000000406064] ret_from_fork+0x1c/0x2c [0000000000000000] (null) Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint Caller[00000000103fa4b0]: ixgbe_xmit_frame+0x30/0xa0 [ixgbe] Caller[0000000000998c74]: netpoll_start_xmit+0xf4/0x200 Caller[0000000000998e10]: queue_process+0x90/0x160 Caller[0000000000485fa8]: process_one_work+0x188/0x480 Caller[0000000000486410]: worker_thread+0x170/0x4c0 Caller[000000000048c6b8]: kthread+0xd8/0x120 Caller[0000000000406064]: ret_from_fork+0x1c/0x2c Caller[0000000000000000]: (null) Signed-off-by: Tushar Dave <tushar.n.dave@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-03-25netpoll: Fix extra refcount release in netpoll_cleanup()Bjorn Helgaas
netpoll_setup() does a dev_hold() on np->dev, the netpoll device. If it fails, it correctly does a dev_put() but leaves np->dev set. If we call netpoll_cleanup() after the failure, np->dev is still set so we do another dev_put(), which decrements the refcount an extra time. It's questionable to call netpoll_cleanup() after netpoll_setup() fails, but it can be difficult to find the problem, and we can easily avoid it in this case. The extra decrements can lead to hangs like this: unregister_netdevice: waiting for bond0 to become free. Usage count = -3 Set and clear np->dev at the points where we dev_hold() and dev_put() the device. Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-09-29netpoll: Drop budget parameter from NAPI polling call hierarchyAlexander Duyck
For some reason we were carrying the budget value around between the various calls to napi->poll. If for example one of the drivers called had a bug in which it returned a non-zero value for work this could result in the budget value becoming negative. Rather than carry around a value of budget that is 0 or less we can instead just loop through and pass 0 to each napi->poll call. If any driver returns a value for work done that is non-zero then we can report that driver and continue rather than allowing a bad actor to make the budget value negative and pass that negative value to napi->poll. Note, the only actual change here is that instead of letting budget become negative we are keeping it at 0 regardless of the value returned for work since it should not be possible for the polling routine to do any actual work with a budget of 0. So if the polling routine returns a non-0 value we are just reporting it and continuing with a budget of 0 rather than letting that work value be subtracted from the budget of 0.

2015-09-23netpoll: Close race condition between poll_one_napi and napi_disableNeil Horman
Drivers might call napi_disable while not holding the napi instance poll_lock. In those instances, its possible for a race condition to exist between poll_one_napi and napi_disable. That is to say, poll_one_napi only tests the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit to see if there is work to do during a poll, and as such the following may happen: CPU0 CPU1 ndo_tx_timeout napi_poll_dev napi_disable poll_one_napi test_and_set_bit (ret 0) test_bit (ret 1) reset adapter napi_poll_routine If the adapter gets a tx timeout without a napi instance scheduled, its possible for the adapter to think it has exclusive access to the hardware (as the napi instance is now scheduled via the napi_disable call), while the netpoll code thinks there is simply work to do. The result is parallel hardware access leading to corrupt data structures in the driver, and a crash. Additionaly, there is another, more critical race between netpoll and napi_disable. The disabled napi state is actually identical to the scheduled state for a given napi instance. The implication being that, if a napi instance is disabled, a netconsole instance would see the napi state of the device as having been scheduled, and poll it, likely while the driver was dong something requiring exclusive access. In the case above, its fairly clear that not having the rings in a state ready to be polled will cause any number of crashes. The fix should be pretty easy. netpoll uses its own bit to indicate that that the napi instance is in a state of being serviced by netpoll (NAPI_STATE_NPSVC). We can just gate disabling on that bit as well as the sched bit. That should prevent netpoll from conducting a napi poll if we convert its set bit to a test_and_set_bit operation to provide mutual exclusion Change notes: V2) Remove a trailing whtiespace Resubmit with proper subject prefix V3) Clean up spacing nits Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: "David S.

2014-03-17netpoll: Remove dead packet receive code (CONFIG_NETPOLL_TRAP)Eric W. Biederman
The netpoll packet receive code only becomes active if the netpoll rx_skb_hook is implemented, and there is not a single implementation of the netpoll rx_skb_hook in the kernel. All of the out of tree implementations I have found all call netpoll_poll which was removed from the kernel in 2011, so this change should not add any additional breakage. There are problems with the netpoll packet receive code. __netpoll_rx does not call dev_kfree_skb_irq or dev_kfree_skb_any in hard irq context. netpoll_neigh_reply leaks every skb it receives. Reception of packets does not work successfully on stacked devices (aka bonding, team, bridge, and vlans). Given that the netpoll packet receive code is buggy, there are no out of tree users that will be merged soon, and the code has not been used for in tree for a decade let's just remove it.

Change the strategy of netpoll from dropping all packets received during netpoll_poll_dev to calling napi poll with a budget of 0 (to avoid processing drivers rx queue), and to ignore packets received with netif_rx (those will safely be placed on the backlog queue). All of the netpoll supporting drivers have been reviewed to ensure either thay use netif_rx or that a budget of 0 is supported by their napi poll routine and that a budget of 0 will not process the drivers rx queues. Not dropping packets makes NETPOLL_RX_DROP unnecesary so it is removed. npinfo->rx_flags is removed as rx_flags with just the NETPOLL_RX_ENABLED flag becomes just a redundant mirror of list_empty(&npinfo->rx_np).

2014-03-17netpoll: Warn if more packets are processed than are budgetedEric W. Biederman
There is already a warning for this case in the normal netpoll path, but put a copy here in case how netpoll calls the poll functions causes a differenet result. netpoll will shortly call the napi poll routine with a budget 0 to avoid any rx packets being processed. As nothing does that today we may encounter drivers that have problems so a netpoll specific warning seems desirable. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2014-03-17netpoll: move setting of NETPOLL_RX_DROP into netpoll_poll_devEric W. Biederman
Today netpoll depends on setting NETPOLL_RX_DROP before networking drivers receive packets in interrupt context so that the packets can be dropped. Move this setting into netpoll_poll_dev from poll_one_napi so that if ndo_poll_controller happens to receive packets we will drop the packets on the floor instead of letting the packets bounce through the networking stack and potentially cause problems.

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.

2013-10-25netpoll: fix rx_hook() interface by passing the skbAntonio Quartulli
Right now skb->data is passed to rx_hook() even if the skb has not been linearised and without giving rx_hook() a way to linearise it. Change the rx_hook() interface and make it accept the skb and the offset to the UDP payload as arguments. rx_hook() is also renamed to rx_skb_hook() to ensure that out of the tree users notice the API change. In this way any rx_skb_hook() implementation can perform all the needed operations to properly (and safely) access the skb data.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge window. The only difference from the one I made the other day is that this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have trickeled in. Highlights: 1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt handling and context switches. Allows direct polling of a network device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll(). Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature. Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'") From Eliezer Tamir. 2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast addresses. Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from Eric Dumazet. 3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski, Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan. 4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from Pavel Emelyanov. 5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from Rony Efraim. 6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar. 7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet. 8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis, from Cong Wang. 9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport. In particular, support receiving on multiple UDP ports. 10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code. From Daniel Borkmann. 11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel devices. From Nicolas Dichtel. 12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all. From Daniel Borkmann. 13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver, from Johannes Berg. 14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue, by using an rbtree. From Eric Dumazet. 15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung Cheng. 16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon Horman. 17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque pointer that's passed into them. Use this to properly handle network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event(). From Jiri Pirko and Timo Teräs. 18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter Huewe. 19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a O(1) calculation instead. From Eric Dumazet. 20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just like ipv4. From Nicolas Dichtel. 21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet. 22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding. From Willem de Bruijn. 23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric Dumazet. 24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead. Also from Eric Dumazet. 25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix from Vlad Yasevich. 26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets. From Lorenzo Colitti. 27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time too, from David Majnemer. 28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs. 29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in upd_v6_push_pending_frames().

2013-05-28net, ipv4, ipv6: Correct assignment of skb->network_header to skb->tailSimon Horman
This corrects an regression introduced by "net: Use 16bits for *_headers fields of struct skbuff" when NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET is not set. In that case skb->tail will be a pointer however skb->network_header is now an offset. This patch corrects the problem by adding a wrapper to return skb tail as an offset regardless of the value of NET_SKBUFF_DATA_USES_OFFSET. It seems that skb->tail that this offset may be more than 64k and some care has been taken to treat such cases as an error. Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
