2013-09-30pkt_sched: fq: qdisc dismantle fixesEric Dumazet
fq_reset() should drops all packets in queue, including throttled flows. This patch moves code from fq_destroy() to fq_reset() to do the cleaning. fq_change() must stop calling fq_dequeue() if all remaining packets are from throttled flows.

This patch adds netns support for ipset. Major changes were made in ip_set_core.c and ip_set.h. Global variables are moved to per net namespace. Added initialization code and the destruction of the network namespace ipset subsystem. In the prototypes of public functions ip_set_* added parameter "struct net*". The remaining corrections related to the change prototypes of public functions ip_set_*.

2013-09-20net_sched: htb: support of 64bit ratesEric Dumazet
HTB already can deal with 64bit rates, we only have to add two new attributes so that tc can use them to break the current 32bit ABI barrier. TCA_HTB_RATE64 : class rate (in bytes per second) TCA_HTB_CEIL64 : class ceil (in bytes per second) This allows us to setup HTB on 40Gbps links, as 32bit limit is actually ~34Gbps Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-09-20net_sched: add u64 rate to psched_ratecfg_precompute()Eric Dumazet
Add an extra u64 rate parameter to psched_ratecfg_precompute() so that some qdisc can opt-in for 64bit rates in the future, to overcome the ~34 Gbits limit. psched_ratecfg_getrate() reports a legacy structure to tc utility, so if actual rate is above the 32bit rate field, cap it to the 34Gbit limit.

Most changes aren't visible to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the planned unified hierarchy. - The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css (cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's. Because controllers (cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of a cgroup. Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed. Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup core and controllers. These assumptions are gradually removed, which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path. Note that decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these changes and the patchset is pending for the next window. - cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is only used by memcg. It is overly complex trying to achieve high flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best. Going forward, new events will simply generate file modified event and the existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg.

2013-08-31qdisc: allow setting default queuing disciplinestephen hemminger
By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default for all devices. But we have better choices now. This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl. This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow an easy path for distributions to make fq_codel or sfq the default qdisc. This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

2013-08-29pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet schedulerEric Dumazet
- Uses perfect flow match (not stochastic hash like SFQ/FQ_codel) - Uses the new_flow/old_flow separation from FQ_codel - New flows get an initial credit allowing IW10 without added delay. - Special FIFO queue for high prio packets (no need for PRIO + FQ) - Uses a hash table of RB trees to locate the flows at enqueue() time - Smart on demand gc (at enqueue() time, RB tree lookup evicts old unused flows) - Dynamic memory allocations. - Designed to allow millions of concurrent flows per Qdisc. - Small memory footprint : ~8K per Qdisc, and 104 bytes per flow. - Single high resolution timer for throttled flows (if any). - One RB tree to link throttled flows. - Ability to have a max rate per flow. We might add a socket option to add per socket limitation. Attempts have been made to add TCP pacing in TCP stack, but this seems to add complex code to an already complex stack. TCP pacing is welcomed for flows having idle times, as the cwnd permits TCP stack to queue a possibly large number of packets. This removes the 'slow start after idle' choice, hitting badly large BDP flows, and applications delivering chunks of data as video streams. Nicely spaced packets : Here interface is 10Gbit, but flow bottleneck is ~20Mbit cwin is big, yet FQ avoids the typical bursts generated by TCP (as in netperf TCP_RR -- -r 100000,100000) 15:01:23.545279 IP A > B: . 78193:81089(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.545394 IP B > A: . ack 81089 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597985 1115> 15:01:23.546488 IP A > B: . 81089:83985(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.546565 IP B > A: . ack 83985 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597986 1115> 15:01:23.547713 IP A > B: . 83985:86881(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.547778 IP B > A: . ack 86881 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597987 1115> 15:01:23.548911 IP A > B: . 86881:89777(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.548949 IP B > A: . ack 89777 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597988 1115> 15:01:23.550116 IP A > B: . 89777:92673(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.550182 IP B > A: . ack 92673 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597989 1115> 15:01:23.551333 IP A > B: . 92673:95569(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.551406 IP B > A: . ack 95569 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597991 1115> 15:01:23.552539 IP A > B: . 95569:98465(2896) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.552576 IP B > A: . ack 98465 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597992 1115> 15:01:23.553756 IP A > B: . 98465:99913(1448) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.554138 IP A > B: P 99913:100001(88) ack 65248 win 3125 <nop,nop,timestamp 1115 11597805> 15:01:23.554204 IP B > A: . ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.554234 IP B > A: . 65248:68144(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.555620 IP B > A: . 68144:71040(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.557005 IP B > A: . 71040:73936(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.558390 IP B > A: . 73936:76832(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.559773 IP B > A: . 76832:79728(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597993 1115> 15:01:23.561158 IP B > A: . 79728:82624(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.562543 IP B > A: . 82624:85520(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.563928 IP B > A: . 85520:88416(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.565313 IP B > A: . 88416:91312(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.566698 IP B > A: . 91312:94208(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.568083 IP B > A: . 94208:97104(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.569467 IP B > A: . 97104:100000(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.570852 IP B > A: . 100000:102896(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.572237 IP B > A: . 102896:105792(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.573639 IP B > A: . 105792:108688(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.575024 IP B > A: . 108688:111584(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.576408 IP B > A: . 111584:114480(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> 15:01:23.577793 IP B > A: . 114480:117376(2896) ack 100001 win 3668 <nop,nop,timestamp 11597994 1115> TCP timestamps show that most packets from B were queued in the same ms timeframe (TSval 1159799{3,4}), but FQ managed to send them right in time to avoid a big burst.

2013-08-15net_sched: restore "linklayer atm" handlingJesper Dangaard Brouer
commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates") broke the "linklayer atm" handling. tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table which is send to the kernel. No direct parameter were transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting. The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates") removed the use of the rate table system. To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects the linklayer by parsing the rate table. It also supports future versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but only using the lower 4 bits of this field. Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM detect. Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at 1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have been more broken than we first realized.

2013-08-08cgroup: make cgroup_taskset deal with cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroupTejun Heo
cgroup is in the process of converting to css (cgroup_subsys_state) from cgroup as the principal subsystem interface handle. This is mostly to prepare for the unified hierarchy support where css's will be created and destroyed dynamically but also helps cleaning up subsystem implementations as css is usually what they are interested in anyway. cgroup_taskset which is used by the subsystem attach methods is the last cgroup subsystem API which isn't using css as the handle. Update cgroup_taskset_cur_cgroup() to cgroup_taskset_cur_css() and cgroup_taskset_for_each() to take @skip_css instead of @skip_cgrp. The conversions are pretty mechanical. One exception is cpuset::cgroup_cs(), which lost its last user and got removed. This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes.

2013-08-08cgroup: pass around cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup in file methodsTejun Heo
cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup. Please see the previous commit which converts the subsystem methods for rationale. This patch converts all cftype file operations to take @css instead of @cgroup. cftypes for the cgroup core files don't have their subsytem pointer set. These will automatically use the dummy_css added by the previous patch and can be converted the same way. Most subsystem conversions are straight forwards but there are some interesting ones. * freezer: update_if_frozen() is also converted to take @css instead of @cgroup for consistency. This will make the code look simpler too once iterators are converted to use css. * memory/vmpressure: mem_cgroup_from_css() needs to be exported to vmpressure while mem_cgroup_from_cont() can be made static.

2013-08-08cgroup: pass around cgroup_subsys_state instead of cgroup in subsystem methodsTejun Heo
cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup * in subsystem implementations for the following reasons. * With unified hierarchy, subsystems will be dynamically bound and unbound from cgroups and thus css's (cgroup_subsys_state) may be created and destroyed dynamically over the lifetime of a cgroup, which is different from the current state where all css's are allocated and destroyed together with the associated cgroup. This in turn means that cgroup_css() should be synchronized and may return NULL, making it more cumbersome to use. * Differing levels of per-subsystem granularity in the unified hierarchy means that the task and descendant iterators should behave differently depending on the specific subsystem the iteration is being performed for. * In majority of the cases, subsystems only care about its part in the cgroup hierarchy - ie. the hierarchy of css's. Subsystem methods often obtain the matching css pointer from the cgroup and don't bother with the cgroup pointer itself. Passing around css fits much better. This patch converts all cgroup_subsys methods to take @css instead of @cgroup. The conversions are mostly straight-forward. A few noteworthy changes are * ->css_alloc() now takes css of the parent cgroup rather than the pointer to the new cgroup as the css for the new cgroup doesn't exist yet. Knowing the parent css is enough for all the existing subsystems. * In kernel/cgroup.c::offline_css(), unnecessary open coded css dereference is replaced with local variable access. This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences. v2: Unnecessary explicit cgrp->subsys[] deref in css_online() replaced with local variable @css as suggested by Li Zefan. Rebased on top of new for-3.12 which includes for-3.11-fixes so that ->css_free() invocation added by da0a12caff ("cgroup: fix a leak when percpu_ref_init() fails") is converted too.

2013-08-08cgroup: add css_parent()Tejun Heo
Currently, controllers have to explicitly follow the cgroup hierarchy to find the parent of a given css. cgroup is moving towards using cgroup_subsys_state as the main controller interface construct, so let's provide a way to climb the hierarchy using just csses. This patch implements css_parent() which, given a css, returns its parent. The function is guarnateed to valid non-NULL parent css as long as the target css is not at the top of the hierarchy. freezer, cpuset, cpu, cpuacct, hugetlb, memory, net_cls and devices are converted to use css_parent() instead of accessing cgroup->parent directly. * __parent_ca() is dropped from cpuacct and its usage is replaced with parent_ca(). The only difference between the two was NULL test on cgroup->parent which is now embedded in css_parent() making the distinction moot. Note that eventually a css->parent field will be added to css and the NULL check in css_parent() will go away. This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences.

2013-08-08cgroup: add/update accessors which obtain subsys specific data from cssTejun Heo
css (cgroup_subsys_state) is usually embedded in a subsys specific data structure. Subsystems either use container_of() directly to cast from css to such data structure or has an accessor function wrapping such cast. As cgroup as whole is moving towards using css as the main interface handle, add and update such accessors to ease dealing with css's. All accessors explicitly handle NULL input and return NULL in those cases. While this looks like an extra branch in the code, as all controllers specific data structures have css as the first field, the casting doesn't involve any offsetting and the compiler can trivially optimize out the branch. * blkio, freezer, cpuset, cpu, cpuacct and net_cls didn't have such accessor. Added. * memory, hugetlb and devices already had one but didn't explicitly handle NULL input. Updated. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors - cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward. The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even indicate it's somehow related to cgroup. We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename them so that they're less awkward. Most per-controller usages of the accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache.

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.

In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported.

However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so.
