2014-06-11net_sched: drr: warn when qdisc is not work conservingFlorian Westphal
The DRR scheduler requires that items on the active list are work conserving, i.e. do not hold on to skbs for throttling purposes, etc. Attaching e.g. tbf renders DRR useless because all other classes on the active list are delayed as well. So, warn users that this configuration won't work as expected; we already do this in couple of other qdiscs, see e.g. commit b00355db3f88d96810a60011a30cfb2c3469409d ('pkt_sched: sch_hfsc: sch_htb: Add non-work-conserving warning handler') The 'const' change is needed to avoid compiler warning ("discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type"). tested with: drr_hier() { parent=$1 classes=$2 for i in $(seq 1 $classes); do classid=$parent$(printf %x $i) tc class add dev eth0 parent $parent classid $classid drr tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent $classid tbf rate 64kbit burst 256kbit limit 64kbit done } tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: drr drr_hier 1: 32 tc filter add dev eth0 protocol all pref 1 parent 1: handle 1 flow hash keys dst perturb 1 divisor 32 Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-05-23net: filter: let unattached filters use sock_fprog_kernDaniel Borkmann
The sk_unattached_filter_create() API is used by BPF filters that are not directly attached or related to sockets, and are used in team, ptp, xt_bpf, cls_bpf, etc. As such all users do their own internal managment of obtaining filter blocks and thus already have them in kernel memory and set up before calling into sk_unattached_filter_create(). As a result, due to __user annotation in sock_fprog, sparse triggers false positives (incorrect type in assignment [different address space]) when filters are set up before passing them to sk_unattached_filter_create(). Therefore, let sk_unattached_filter_create() API use sock_fprog_kern to overcome this issue.

This is a regression introduced by commit 33be627159913b094bb578 (net_sched: act: use standard struct list_head). It's not very easy to fix it as the code is a mess: if (old_r) memcpy(&cr, r, sizeof(cr)); else { memset(&cr, 0, sizeof(cr)); tcf_exts_init(&cr.exts, TCA_TCINDEX_ACT, TCA_TCINDEX_POLICE); } ... tcf_exts_change(tp, &cr.exts, &e); ... memcpy(r, &cr, sizeof(cr)); the above code should equal to: tcindex_filter_result_init(&cr); if (old_r) cr.res = r->res; ... if (old_r) tcf_exts_change(tp, &r->exts, &e); else tcf_exts_change(tp, &cr.exts, &e); ... r->res = cr.res; after this change, since there is no need to copy struct tcf_exts. And it also fixes other places zero'ing struct's contains struct tcf_exts.

2014-04-27sched, cls: check if we could overwrite actions when changing a filterCong Wang
When actions are attached to a filter, they are a part of the filter itself, so when changing a filter we should allow to overwrite the actions inside as well. In my specific case, when I tried to _append_ a new action to an existing filter which already has an action, I got EEXIST since kernel refused to overwrite the existing one in kernel. This patch checks if we are changing the filter checking NLM_F_CREATE flag (Sigh, filters don't use NLM_F_REPLACE...) and then passes the boolean down to actions. This fixes the problem above.

2014-04-24net: Use netlink_ns_capable to verify the permisions of netlink messagesEric W. Biederman
It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that privileged executable did not intend to do. To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls. Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

2014-03-18net: sched: use no more than one page in struct fw_headEric Dumazet
In commit b4e9b520ca5d ("[NET_SCHED]: Add mask support to fwmark classifier") Patrick added an u32 field in fw_head, making it slightly bigger than one page. Lets use 256 slots to make fw_hash() more straight forward, and move @mask to the beginning of the structure as we often use a small number of skb->mark. @mask and first hash buckets share the same cache line. This brings back the memory usage to less than 4000 bytes, and permits John to add a rcu_head at the end of the structure later without any worry.

2014-01-21reciprocal_divide: update/correction of the algorithmHannes Frederic Sowa
Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide() were not correct [1][2], which he could also show with BPF code after divisions are transformed into reciprocal_value() for runtime invariance which can be passed to reciprocal_divide() later on; reverse in BPF dump ended up with a different, off-by-one K in some situations. This has been fixed by Eric Dumazet in commit aee636c4809fa5 ("bpf: do not use reciprocal divide"). This follow-up patch improves reciprocal_value() and reciprocal_divide() to work in all cases by using Granlund and Montgomery method, so that also future use is safe and without any non-obvious side-effects. Known problems with the old implementation were that division by 1 always returned 0 and some off-by-ones when the dividend and divisor where very large. This seemed to not be problematic with its current users, as far as we can tell. Eric Dumazet checked for the slab usage, we cannot surely say so in the case of flex_array. Still, in order to fix that, we propose an extension from the original implementation from commit 6a2d7a955d8d resp. [3][4], by using the algorithm proposed in "Division by Invariant Integers Using Multiplication" [5], Torbjörn Granlund and Peter L. Montgomery, that is, pseudocode for q = n/d where q, n, d is in u32 universe: 1) Initialization: int l = ceil(log_2 d) uword m' = floor((1<<32)*((1<<l)-d)/d)+1 int sh_1 = min(l,1) int sh_2 = max(l-1,0) 2) For q = n/d, all uword: uword t = (n*m')>>32 q = (t+((n-t)>>sh_1))>>sh_2 The assembler implementation from Agner Fog [6] also helped a lot while implementing. We have tested the implementation on x86_64, ppc64, i686, s390x; on x86_64/haswell we're still half the latency compared to normal divide. Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

2014-01-21random32: add prandom_u32_max and convert open coded usersDaniel Borkmann
Many functions have open coded a function that returns a random number in range [0,N-1]. Under the assumption that we have a PRNG such as taus113 with being well distributed in [0, ~0U] space, we can implement such a function as uword t = (n*m')>>32, where m' is a random number obtained from PRNG, n the right open interval border and t our resulting random number, with n,m',t in u32 universe. Lets go with Joe and simply call it prandom_u32_max(), although technically we have an right open interval endpoint, but that we have documented. Other users can further be migrated to the new prandom_u32_max() function later on; for now, we need to make sure to migrate reciprocal_divide() users for the reciprocal_divide() follow-up fixup since their function signatures are going to change.

This patch removes the net_random and net_srandom macros and replaces them with direct calls to the prandom ones. As new commits only seem to use prandom_u32 there is no use to keep them around. This change makes it easier to grep for users of prandom_u32.
