2019-04-27netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictnessJohannes Berg
We currently have two levels of strict validation: 1) liberal (default) - undefined (type >= max) & NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted - garbage at end of message accepted 2) strict (opt-in) - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted Split out parsing strictness into four different options: * TRAILING - check that there's no trailing data after parsing attributes (in message or nested) * MAXTYPE - reject attrs > max known type * UNSPEC - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size The default for future things should be *everything*. The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE, and is renamed to _deprecated_strict(). The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to *_parse_deprecated(). Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply to the POLICY flag. We end up with the following renames: * nla_parse -> nla_parse_deprecated * nla_parse_strict -> nla_parse_deprecated_strict * nlmsg_parse -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated * nlmsg_parse_strict -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict * nla_parse_nested -> nla_parse_nested_deprecated * nla_validate_nested -> nla_validate_nested_deprecated Using spatch, of course: @@ expression TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_deprecated(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse_nested(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_nested_deprecated(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) @@ expression START, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_validate_nested(START, MAX, POL, EXT) +nla_validate_nested_deprecated(START, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_validate(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_validate_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong.

2019-04-27netlink: make nla_nest_start() add NLA_F_NESTED flagMichal Kubecek
Even if the NLA_F_NESTED flag was introduced more than 11 years ago, most netlink based interfaces (including recently added ones) are still not setting it in kernel generated messages. Without the flag, message parsers not aware of attribute semantics (e.g. wireshark dissector or libmnl's mnl_nlmsg_fprintf()) cannot recognize nested attributes and won't display the structure of their contents. Unfortunately we cannot just add the flag everywhere as there may be userspace applications which check nlattr::nla_type directly rather than through a helper masking out the flags. Therefore the patch renames nla_nest_start() to nla_nest_start_noflag() and introduces nla_nest_start() as a wrapper adding NLA_F_NESTED. The calls which add NLA_F_NESTED manually are rewritten to use nla_nest_start(). Except for changes in include/net/netlink.h, the patch was generated using this semantic patch: @@ expression E1, E2; @@ -nla_nest_start(E1, E2) +nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2) @@ expression E1, E2; @@ -nla_nest_start_noflag(E1, E2 | NLA_F_NESTED) +nla_nest_start(E1, E2) Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The same code to flush qdisc tree and purge the qdisc queue is duplicated in many places and in most cases it does not respect NOLOCK qdisc: the global backlog len is used and the per CPU values are ignored.

2019-04-01net: sched: introduce and use qstats read helpersPaolo Abeni
Classful qdiscs can't access directly the child qdiscs backlog length: if such qdisc is NOLOCK, per CPU values should be accounted instead. Most qdiscs no not respect the above. As a result, qstats fetching for most classful qdisc is currently incorrect: if the child qdisc is NOLOCK, it always reports 0 len backlog. This change introduces a pair of helpers to safely fetch both backlog and qlen and use them in stats class dumping functions, fixing the above issue and cleaning a bit the code. DRR needs also to access the child qdisc queue length, so it needs custom handling.

2019-01-15sched: Fix detection of empty queues in child qdiscsToke Høiland-Jørgensen
Several qdiscs check on enqueue whether the packet was enqueued to a class with an empty queue, in which case the class is activated. This is done by checking if the qlen is exactly 1 after enqueue. However, if GSO splitting is enabled in the child qdisc, a single packet can result in a qlen longer than 1. This means the activation check fails, leading to a stalled queue. Fix this by checking if the queue is empty *before* enqueue, and running the activation logic if this was the case.

2017-08-25net_sched: remove tc class reference countingWANG Cong
For TC classes, their ->get() and ->put() are always paired, and the reference counting is completely useless, because: 1) For class modification and dumping paths, we already hold RTNL lock, so all of these ->get(),->change(),->put() are atomic. 2) For filter bindiing/unbinding, we use other reference counter than this one, and they should have RTNL lock too. 3) For ->qlen_notify(), it is special because it is called on ->enqueue() path, but we already hold qdisc tree lock there, and we hold this tree lock when graft or delete the class too, so it should not be gone or changed until we release the tree lock. Therefore, this patch removes ->get() and ->put(), but: 1) Adds a new ->find() to find the pointer to a class by classid, no refcnt. 2) Move the original class destroy upon the last refcnt into ->delete(), right after releasing tree lock. This is fine because the class is already removed from hash when holding the lock. For those who also use ->put() as ->unbind(), just rename them to reflect this change.

2017-03-12net: sched: make default fifo qdiscs appear in the dumpJiri Kosina
The original reason [1] for having hidden qdiscs (potential scalability issues in qdisc_match_from_root() with single linked list in case of large amount of qdiscs) has been invalidated by 59cc1f61f0 ("net: sched: convert qdisc linked list to hashtable"). This allows us for bringing more clarity and determinism into the dump by making default pfifo qdiscs visible. We're not turning this on by default though, at it was deemed [2] too intrusive / unnecessary change of default behavior towards userspace. Instead, TCA_DUMP_INVISIBLE netlink attribute is introduced, which allows applications to request complete qdisc hierarchy dump, including the ones that have always been implicit/invisible. Singleton noop_qdisc stays invisible, as teaching the whole infrastructure about singletons would require quite some surgery with very little gain (seeing no qdisc or seeing noop qdisc in the dump is probably setting the same user expectation).

1) Old code was hard to maintain, due to complex lock chains. (We probably will be able to remove some kfree_rcu() in callers) 2) Using a single timer to update all estimators does not scale. 3) Code was buggy on 32bit kernel (WRITE_ONCE() on 64bit quantity is not supposed to work well) In this rewrite : - I removed the RB tree that had to be scanned in gen_estimator_active(). qdisc dumps should be much faster. - Each estimator has its own timer. - Estimations are maintained in net_rate_estimator structure, instead of dirtying the qdisc. Minor, but part of the simplification. - Reading the estimator uses RCU and a seqcount to provide proper support for 32bit kernels. - We reduce memory need when estimators are not used, since we store a pointer, instead of the bytes/packets counters. - xt_rateest_mt() no longer has to grab a spinlock.

2016-06-25net_sched: drop packets after root qdisc lock is releasedEric Dumazet
Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue() time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held, delaying a dequeue() draining the queue. Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens, at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible. Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was to provide some flow isolation. This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper.

Large tc dumps (tc -s {qdisc|class} sh dev ethX) done by Google BwE host agent [1] are problematic at scale : For each qdisc/class found in the dump, we currently lock the root qdisc spinlock in order to get stats. Sampling stats every 5 seconds from thousands of HTB classes is a challenge when the root qdisc spinlock is under high pressure. Not only the dumps take time, they also slow down the fast path (queue/dequeue packets) by 10 % to 20 % in some cases. An audit of existing qdiscs showed that sch_fq_codel is the only qdisc that might need the qdisc lock in fq_codel_dump_stats() and fq_codel_dump_class_stats() In v2 of this patch, I now use the Qdisc running seqcount to provide consistent reads of packets/bytes counters, regardless of 32/64 bit arches. I also changed rate estimators to use the same infrastructure so that they no longer need to lock root qdisc lock.

For classifiers getting invoked via tc_classify(), we always need an extra function call into tc_classify_compat(), as both are being exported as symbols and tc_classify() itself doesn't do much except handling of reclassifications when tp->classify() returned with TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY. CBQ and ATM are the only qdiscs that directly call into tc_classify_compat(), all others use tc_classify(). When tc actions are being configured out in the kernel, tc_classify() effectively does nothing besides delegating.

And because this is only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag. Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated to use the per cpu statistics.

2013-07-18pkt_sched: sch_qfq: remove a source of high packet delay/jitterPaolo Valente
QFQ+ inherits from QFQ a design choice that may cause a high packet delay/jitter and a severe short-term unfairness. As QFQ, QFQ+ uses a special quantity, the system virtual time, to track the service provided by the ideal system it approximates. When a packet is dequeued, this quantity must be incremented by the size of the packet, divided by the sum of the weights of the aggregates waiting to be served. Tracking this sum correctly is a non-trivial task, because, to preserve tight service guarantees, the decrement of this sum must be delayed in a special way [1]: this sum can be decremented only after that its value would decrease also in the ideal system approximated by QFQ+. For efficiency, QFQ+ keeps track only of the 'instantaneous' weight sum, increased and decreased immediately as the weight of an aggregate changes, and as an aggregate is created or destroyed (which, in its turn, happens as a consequence of some class being created/destroyed/changed). However, to avoid the problems caused to service guarantees by these immediate decreases, QFQ+ increments the system virtual time using the maximum value allowed for the weight sum, 2^10, in place of the dynamic, instantaneous value. The instantaneous value of the weight sum is used only to check whether a request of weight increase or a class creation can be satisfied. Unfortunately, the problems caused by this choice are worse than the temporary degradation of the service guarantees that may occur, when a class is changed or destroyed, if the instantaneous value of the weight sum was used to update the system virtual time. In fact, the fraction of the link bandwidth guaranteed by QFQ+ to each aggregate is equal to the ratio between the weight of the aggregate and the sum of the weights of the competing aggregates. The packet delay guaranteed to the aggregate is instead inversely proportional to the guaranteed bandwidth. By using the maximum possible value, and not the actual value of the weight sum, QFQ+ provides each aggregate with the worst possible service guarantees, and not with service guarantees related to the actual set of competing aggregates. To see the consequences of this fact, consider the following simple example. Suppose that only the following aggregates are backlogged, i.e., that only the classes in the following aggregates have packets to transmit: one aggregate with weight 10, say A, and ten aggregates with weight 1, say B1, B2, ..., B10. In particular, suppose that these aggregates are always backlogged. Given the weight distribution, the smoothest and fairest service order would be: A B1 A B2 A B3 A B4 A B5 A B6 A B7 A B8 A B9 A B10 A B1 A B2 ... QFQ+ would provide exactly this optimal service if it used the actual value for the weight sum instead of the maximum possible value, i.e., 11 instead of 2^10. In contrast, since QFQ+ uses the latter value, it serves aggregates as follows (easy to prove and to reproduce experimentally): A B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 B10 A A A A A A A A A A B1 B2 ... B10 A A ... By replacing 10 with N in the above example, and by increasing N, one can increase at will the maximum packet delay and the jitter experienced by the classes in aggregate A. This patch addresses this issue by just using the above 'instantaneous' value of the weight sum, instead of the maximum possible value, when updating the system virtual time. After the instantaneous weight sum is decreased, QFQ+ may deviate from the ideal service for a time interval in the order of the time to serve one maximum-size packet for each backlogged class. The worst-case extent of the deviation exhibited by QFQ+ during this time interval [1] is basically the same as of the deviation described above (but, without this patch, QFQ+ suffers from such a deviation all the time). Finally, this patch modifies the comment to the function qfq_slot_insert, to make it coherent with the fact that the weight sum used by QFQ+ can now be lower than the maximum possible value. [1] P.

2013-07-11pkt_sched: sch_qfq: improve efficiency of make_eligiblePaolo Valente
In make_eligible, a mask is used to decide which groups must become eligible: the i-th group becomes eligible only if the i-th bit of the mask (from the right) is set. The mask is computed by left-shifting a 1 by a given number of places, and decrementing the result. The shift is performed on a ULL to avoid problems in case the number of places to shift is higher than 31. On a 32-bit machine, this is more costly than working on an UL. This patch replaces such a costly operation with two cheaper branches. The trick is based on the following fact: in case of a shift of at least 32 places, the resulting mask has at least the 32 less significant bits set, whereas the total number of groups is lower than 32. As a consequence, in this case it is enough to just set the 32 less significant bits of the mask with a cheaper ~0UL. In the other case, the shift can be safely performed on a UL.

2013-06-11net_sched: add 64bit rate estimatorsEric Dumazet
struct gnet_stats_rate_est contains u32 fields, so the bytes per second field can wrap at 34360Mbit. Add a new gnet_stats_rate_est64 structure to get 64bit bps/pps fields, and switch the kernel to use this structure natively. This structure is dumped to user space as a new attribute : TCA_STATS_RATE_EST64 Old tc command will now display the capped bps (to 34360Mbit), instead of wrapped values, and updated tc command will display correct information.

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: remove a useless invocation of qfq_update_eligiblePaolo Valente
QFQ+ can select for service only 'eligible' aggregates, i.e., aggregates that would have started to be served also in the emulated ideal system. As a consequence, for QFQ+ to be work conserving, at least one of the active aggregates must be eligible when it is time to choose the next aggregate to serve. The set of eligible aggregates is updated through the function qfq_update_eligible(), which does guarantee that, after its invocation, at least one of the active aggregates is eligible. Because of this property, this function is invoked in qfq_deactivate_agg() to guarantee that at least one of the active aggregates is still eligible after an aggregate has been deactivated. In particular, the critical case is when there are other active aggregates, but the aggregate being deactivated happens to be the only one eligible. However, this precaution is not needed for QFQ+ to be work conserving, because update_eligible() is always invoked also at the beginning of qfq_choose_next_agg(). This patch removes the additional invocation of update_eligible() in qfq_deactivate_agg().

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: prevent budget from wrapping around after a dequeuePaolo Valente
Aggregate budgets are computed so as to guarantee that, after an aggregate has been selected for service, that aggregate has enough budget to serve at least one maximum-size packet for the classes it contains. For this reason, after a new aggregate has been selected for service, its next packet is immediately dequeued, without any further control. The maximum packet size for a class, lmax, can be changed through qfq_change_class(). In case the user sets lmax to a lower value than the the size of some of the still-to-arrive packets, QFQ+ will automatically push up lmax as it enqueues these packets. This automatic push up is likely to happen with TSO/GSO. In any case, if lmax is assigned a lower value than the size of some of the packets already enqueued for the class, then the following problem may occur: the size of the next packet to dequeue for the class may happen to be larger than lmax, after the aggregate to which the class belongs has been just selected for service. In this case, even the budget of the aggregate, which is an unsigned value, may be lower than the size of the next packet to dequeue. After dequeueing this packet and subtracting its size from the budget, the latter would wrap around. This fix prevents the budget from wrapping around after any packet dequeue.

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: serve activated aggregates immediately if the scheduler ↵Paolo Valente
is empty If no aggregate is in service, then the function qfq_dequeue() does not dequeue any packet. For this reason, to guarantee QFQ+ to be work conserving, a just-activated aggregate must be set as in service immediately if it happens to be the only active aggregate. This is done by the function qfq_enqueue(). Unfortunately, the function qfq_add_to_agg(), used to add a class to an aggregate, does not perform this important additional operation. In particular, if: 1) qfq_add_to_agg() is invoked to complete the move of a class from a source aggregate, becoming, for this move, inactive, to a destination aggregate, becoming instead active, and 2) the destination aggregate becomes the only active aggregate, then this aggregate is not however set as in service. QFQ+ remains then in a non-work-conserving state until a new invocation of qfq_enqueue() recovers the situation. This fix solves the problem by moving the logic for setting an aggregate as in service directly into the function qfq_activate_agg(). Hence, from whatever point qfq_activate_aggregate() is invoked, QFQ+ remains work conserving. Since the more-complex logic of this new version of activate_aggregate() is not necessary, in qfq_dequeue(), to reschedule an aggregate that finishes its budget, then the aggregate is now rescheduled by invoking directly the functions needed.

Between two invocations of make_eligible, the system virtual time may happen to grow enough that, in its binary representation, a bit with higher order than 31 flips. This happens especially with TSO/GSO. Before this fix, the mask used in make_eligible was computed as (1UL<<index_of_last_flipped_bit)-1, whose value is well defined on a 64-bit architecture, because index_of_flipped_bit <= 63, but is in general undefined on a 32-bit architecture if index_of_flipped_bit > 31.
