2016-06-03sctp: Add GSO supportMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
SCTP has this pecualiarity that its packets cannot be just segmented to (P)MTU. Its chunks must be contained in IP segments, padding respected. So we can't just generate a big skb, set gso_size to the fragmentation point and deliver it to IP layer. This patch takes a different approach. SCTP will now build a skb as it would be if it was received using GRO. That is, there will be a cover skb with protocol headers and children ones containing the actual segments, already segmented to a way that respects SCTP RFCs. With that, we can tell skb_segment() to just split based on frag_list, trusting its sizes are already in accordance. This way SCTP can benefit from GSO and instead of passing several packets through the stack, it can pass a single large packet. v2: - Added support for receiving GSO frames, as requested by Dave Miller. - Clear skb->cb if packet is GSO (otherwise it's not used by SCTP) - Added heuristics similar to what we have in TCP for not generating single GSO packets that fills cwnd. v3: - consider sctphdr size in skb_gso_transport_seglen() - rebased due to 5c7cdf339af5 ("gso: Remove arbitrary checks for unsupported GSO") Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Tested-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-06-03skbuff: introduce skb_gso_validate_mtuMarcelo Ricardo Leitner
skb_gso_network_seglen is not enough for checking fragment sizes if skb is using GSO_BY_FRAGS as we have to check frag per frag. This patch introduces skb_gso_validate_mtu, based on the former, which will wrap the use case inside it as all calls to skb_gso_network_seglen were to validate if it fits on a given TMU, and improve the check.

2016-05-04gso: Only allow GSO_PARTIAL if we can checksum the inner protocolAlexander Duyck
This patch addresses a possible issue that can occur if we get into any odd corner cases where we support TSO for a given protocol but not the checksum or scatter-gather offload. There are few drivers floating around that setup their tunnels this way and by enforcing the checksum piece we can avoid mangling any frames.

2016-05-04gso: Do not perform partial GSO if number of partial segments is 1 or lessAlexander Duyck
In the event that the number of partial segments is equal to 1 we don't really need to perform partial segmentation offload. As such we should skip multiplying the MSS and instead just clear the partial_segs value since it will not provide any gain to advertise the frame as being GSO when it is a single frame.

2016-04-25skbuff: Add pskb_extract() helper functionSowmini Varadhan
A pattern of skb usage seen in modules such as RDS-TCP is to extract `to_copy' bytes from the received TCP segment, starting at some offset `off' into a new skb `clone'. This is done in the ->data_ready callback, where the clone skb is queued up for rx on the PF_RDS socket, while the parent TCP segment is returned unchanged back to the TCP engine. The existing code uses the sequence clone = skb_clone(..); pskb_pull(clone, off, ..); pskb_trim(clone, to_copy, ..); with the intention of discarding the first `off' bytes. However, skb_clone() + pskb_pull() implies pksb_expand_head(), which ends up doing a redundant memcpy of bytes that will then get discarded in __pskb_pull_tail(). To avoid this inefficiency, this commit adds pskb_extract() that creates the clone, and memcpy's only the relevant header/frag/frag_list to the start of `clone'. pskb_trim() is then invoked to trim clone down to the requested to_copy bytes.

2016-04-15vlan: pull on __vlan_insert_tag error path and fix csum correctionDaniel Borkmann
When __vlan_insert_tag() fails from skb_vlan_push() path due to the skb_cow_head(), we need to undo the __skb_push() in the error path as well that was done earlier to move skb->data pointer to mac header. Moreover, I noticed that when in the non-error path the __skb_pull() is done and the original offset to mac header was non-zero, we fixup from a wrong skb->data offset in the checksum complete processing. So the skb_postpush_rcsum() really needs to be done before __skb_pull() where skb->data still points to the mac header start and thus operates under the same conditions as in __vlan_insert_tag().

2016-04-14GSO: Support partial segmentation offloadAlexander Duyck
This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial. The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers, and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware. With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload: NETIF_F_GSO_GRE NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP NETIF_F_GSO_SIT NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

Some drivers reuse/share code paths that free SKBs between NAPI and non-NAPI calls. Adjust napi_consume_skb to handle this use-case. Before, calls from netpoll (w/ IRQs disabled) was handled and indicated with a budget zero indication. Use the same zero indication to handle calls not originating from NAPI/softirq. Simply handled by using dev_consume_skb_any(). This adds an extra branch+call for the netpoll case (checking in_irq() + irqs_disabled()), but that is okay as this is a slowpath.

2016-02-11net: bulk free SKBs that were delay free'ed due to IRQ contextJesper Dangaard Brouer
The network stack defers SKBs free, in-case free happens in IRQ or when IRQs are disabled. This happens in __dev_kfree_skb_irq() that writes SKBs that were free'ed during IRQ to the softirq completion queue (softnet_data.completion_queue). These SKBs are naturally delayed, and cleaned up during NET_TX_SOFTIRQ in function net_tx_action(). Take advantage of this a use the skb defer and flush API, as we are already in softirq context. For modern drivers this rarely happens. Although most drivers do call dev_kfree_skb_any(), which detects the situation and calls __dev_kfree_skb_irq() when needed. This due to netpoll can call from IRQ context. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-02-11net: bulk free infrastructure for NAPI context, use napi_consume_skbJesper Dangaard Brouer
Discovered that network stack were hitting the kmem_cache/SLUB slowpath when freeing SKBs. Doing bulk free with kmem_cache_free_bulk can speedup this slowpath. NAPI context is a bit special, lets take advantage of that for bulk free'ing SKBs. In NAPI context we are running in softirq, which gives us certain protection. A softirq can run on several CPUs at once. BUT the important part is a softirq will never preempt another softirq running on the same CPU. This gives us the opportunity to access per-cpu variables in softirq context. Extend napi_alloc_cache (before only contained page_frag_cache) to be a struct with a small array based stack for holding SKBs. Introduce a SKB defer and flush API for accessing this. Introduce napi_consume_skb() as replacement for e.g. dev_consume_skb_any() when running in NAPI context. A small trick to handle/detect if we are called from netpoll is to see if budget is 0. In that case, we need to invoke dev_consume_skb_irq(). Joint work with Alexander Duyck.

2016-02-11net: Update remote checksum segmentation to support use of GSO checksumAlexander Duyck
This patch addresses two main issues. First in the case of remote checksum offload we were avoiding dealing with scatter-gather issues.

Second I have updated the code so that we now let GSO take care of doing the checksum on the data itself and drop the special case that was added for remote checksum offload.

This patch moves the checksum maintained by GSO out of skb->csum and into the GSO context block in order to allow for us to work on outer checksums while maintaining the inner checksum offsets in the case of the inner checksum being offloaded, while the outer checksums will be computed. While updating the code I also did a minor cleanu-up on gso_make_checksum. The change is mostly to make it so that we store the values and compute the checksum instead of computing the checksum and then storing the values we needed to update.

2015-11-17vlan: Fix untag operations of stacked vlans with REORDER_HEADER offVlad Yasevich
When we have multiple stacked vlan devices all of which have turned off REORDER_HEADER flag, the untag operation does not locate the ethernet addresses correctly for nested vlans. The reason is that in case of REORDER_HEADER flag being off, the outer vlan headers are put back and the mac_len is adjusted to account for the presense of the header. Then, the subsequent untag operation, for the next level vlan, always use VLAN_ETH_HLEN to locate the begining of the ethernet header and that ends up being a multiple of 4 bytes short of the actuall beginning of the mac header (the multiple depending on the how many vlan encapsulations ethere are). As a reslult, if there are multiple levles of vlan devices with REODER_HEADER being off, the recevied packets end up being dropped. To solve this, we use skb->mac_len as the offset. The value is always set on receive path and starts out as a ETH_HLEN. The value is also updated when the vlan header manupations occur so we know it will be correct.

2015-11-06mm, page_alloc: distinguish between being unable to sleep, unwilling to ↵Mel Gorman
sleep and avoiding waking kswapd __GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve". Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic reserves. This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic, cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use __GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake kswapd for background reclaim. This patch then converts a number of sites o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag. o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress. o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to flag manipulations. o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons. In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH. The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

2015-08-21mm: make page pfmemalloc check more robustMichal Hocko
Commit c48a11c7ad26 ("netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb") added checks for page->pfmemalloc to __skb_fill_page_desc(): if (page->pfmemalloc && !page->mapping) skb->pfmemalloc = true; It assumes page->mapping == NULL implies that page->pfmemalloc can be trusted. However, __delete_from_page_cache() can set set page->mapping to NULL and leave page->index value alone. Due to being in union, a non-zero page->index will be interpreted as true page->pfmemalloc. So the assumption is invalid if the networking code can see such a page. And it seems it can. We have encountered this with a NFS over loopback setup when such a page is attached to a new skbuf. There is no copying going on in this case so the page confuses __skb_fill_page_desc which interprets the index as pfmemalloc flag and the network stack drops packets that have been allocated using the reserves unless they are to be queued on sockets handling the swapping which is the case here and that leads to hangs when the nfs client waits for a response from the server which has been dropped and thus never arrive. The struct page is already heavily packed so rather than finding another hole to put it in, let's do a trick instead. We can reuse the index again but define it to an impossible value (-1UL). This is the page index so it should never see the value that large. Replace all direct users of page->pfmemalloc by page_is_pfmemalloc which will hide this nastiness from unspoiled eyes. The information will get lost if somebody wants to use page->index obviously but that was the case before and the original code expected that the information should be persisted somewhere else if that is really needed (e.g. what SLAB and SLUB do).

2015-08-13net: fix wrong skb_get() usage / crash in IGMP/MLD parsing codeLinus Lüssing
The recent refactoring of the IGMP and MLD parsing code into ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() introduced a potential crash / BUG() invocation for bridges: I wrongly assumed that skb_get() could be used as a simple reference counter for an skb which is not the case. skb_get() bears additional semantics, a user count. This leads to a BUG() invocation in pskb_expand_head() / kernel panic if pskb_may_pull() is called on an skb with a user count greater than one - unfortunately the refactoring did just that. Fixing this by removing the skb_get() call and changing the API: The caller of ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() now needs to additionally check whether the returned skb_trimmed is a clone.

2015-06-11net: don't wait for order-3 page allocationShaohua Li
We saw excessive direct memory compaction triggered by skb_page_frag_refill. This causes performance issues and add latency. Commit 5640f7685831e0 introduces the order-3 allocation. According to the changelog, the order-3 allocation isn't a must-have but to improve performance. But direct memory compaction has high overhead. The benefit of order-3 allocation can't compensate the overhead of direct memory compaction. This patch makes the order-3 page allocation atomic. If there is no memory pressure and memory isn't fragmented, the alloction will still success, so we don't sacrifice the order-3 benefit here. If the atomic allocation fails, direct memory compaction will not be triggered, skb_page_frag_refill will fallback to order-0 immediately, hence the direct memory compaction overhead is avoided. In the allocation failure case, kswapd is waken up and doing compaction, so chances are allocation could success next time. alloc_skb_with_frags is the same. The mellanox driver does similar thing, if this is accepted, we must fix the driver too.

2015-05-13net: Reserve skb headroom and set skb->dev even if using __alloc_skbAlexander Duyck
When I had inlined __alloc_rx_skb into __netdev_alloc_skb and __napi_alloc_skb I had overlooked the fact that there was a return in the __alloc_rx_skb. As a result we weren't reserving headroom or setting the skb->dev in certain cases. This change corrects that by adding a couple of jump labels to jump to depending on __alloc_skb either succeeding or failing.

2015-05-12net: Add skb_free_frag to replace use of put_page in freeing skb->headAlexander Duyck
This change adds a function called skb_free_frag which is meant to compliment the function netdev_alloc_frag. The general idea is to enable a more lightweight version of page freeing since we don't actually need all the overhead of a put_page, and we don't quite fit the model of __free_pages.

2015-05-12mm/net: Rename and move page fragment handling from net/ to mm/Alexander Duyck
This change moves the __alloc_page_frag functionality out of the networking stack and into the page allocation portion of mm. The idea it so help make this maintainable by placing it with other page allocation functions. Since we are moving it from skbuff.c to page_alloc.c I have also renamed the basic defines and structure from netdev_alloc_cache to page_frag_cache to reflect that this is now part of a different kernel subsystem. I have also added a simple __free_page_frag function which can handle freeing the frags based on the skb->head pointer. The model for this is based off of __free_pages since we don't actually need to deal with all of the cases that put_page handles. I incorporated the virt_to_head_page call and compound_order into the function as it actually allows for a signficant size reduction by reducing code duplication.

2015-05-12net: Store virtual address instead of page in netdev_alloc_cacheAlexander Duyck
This change makes it so that we store the virtual address of the page in the netdev_alloc_cache instead of the page pointer. The idea behind this is to avoid multiple calls to page_address since the virtual address is required for every access, but the page pointer is only needed at allocation or reset of the page. While I was at it I also reordered the netdev_alloc_cache structure a bit so that the size is always 16 bytes by dropping size in the case where PAGE_SIZE is greater than or equal to 32KB.

2015-05-12net: Use cached copy of pfmemalloc to avoid accessing pageAlexander Duyck
While testing I found that the testing for pfmemalloc in build_skb was rather expensive. I found the issue to be two-fold. First we have to get from the virtual address to the head page and that comes at the cost of something like 11 cycles. Then there is the cost for reading pfmemalloc out of the head page which can be cache cold due to the fact that put_page_testzero is likely invalidating the cache-line on one or more CPUs as the fragments can be shared. To avoid this extra expense I have added a pfmemalloc member to the netdev_alloc_cache. I then pushed pieces of __alloc_rx_skb into __napi_alloc_skb and __netdev_alloc_skb so that I could rewrite them to make use of the cached pfmemalloc value. The result is that my perf traces show a reduction from 9.28% overhead to 3.7% for the code covered by build_skb, __alloc_rx_skb, and __napi_alloc_skb when performing a test with the packet being dropped instead of being handed to napi_gro_receive.

With this patch, the IGMP and MLD message validation functions are moved from the bridge code to IPv4/IPv6 multicast files. Some small refactoring was done to enhance readibility and to iron out some differences in behaviour between the IGMP and MLD parsing code (e.g. the skb-cloning of MLD messages is now only done if necessary, just like the IGMP part always did). Finally, these IGMP and MLD message validation functions are exported so that not only the bridge can use it but batman-adv later, too.

2015-04-22net: do not deplete pfmemalloc reserveEric Dumazet
build_skb() should look at the page pfmemalloc status. If set, this means page allocator allocated this page in the expectation it would help to free other pages. Networking stack can do that only if skb->pfmemalloc is also set. Also, we must refrain using high order pages from the pfmemalloc reserve, so __page_frag_refill() must also use __GFP_NOMEMALLOC for them. Under memory pressure, using order-0 pages is probably the best strategy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
