2013-07-08net: rename low latency sockets functions to busy pollEliezer Tamir
Rename functions in include/net/ll_poll.h to busy wait. Clarify documentation about expected power use increase. Rename POLL_LL to POLL_BUSY_LOOP. Add need_resched() testing to poll/select busy loops. Note, that in select and poll can_busy_poll is dynamic and is updated continuously to reflect the existence of supported sockets with valid queue information.

2013-06-25net: poll/select low latency socket supportEliezer Tamir
select/poll busy-poll support. Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll. updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found. When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something. Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can return the result to the user ASAP. Signed-off-by: Eliezer Tamir <eliezer.tamir@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-06-10net: add low latency socket pollEliezer Tamir
Adds an ndo_ll_poll method and the code that supports it. This method can be used by low latency applications to busy-poll Ethernet device queues directly from the socket code. sysctl_net_ll_poll controls how many microseconds to poll. Default is zero (disabled). Individual protocol support will be added by subsequent patches.

2013-04-19net: socket: move ktime2ts to ktime header apiDaniel Borkmann
Currently, ktime2ts is a small helper function that is only used in net/socket.c. Move this helper into the ktime API as a small inline function, so that i) it's maintained together with ktime routines, and ii) also other files can make use of it. The function is named ktime_to_timespec_cond() and placed into the generic part of ktime, since we internally make use of ktime_to_timespec(). ktime_to_timespec() itself does not check the ktime variable for zero, hence, we name this function ktime_to_timespec_cond() for only a conditional conversion, and adapt its users to it.

2013-01-31wanrouter: completely decouple obsolete code from kernel.Paul Gortmaker
The original suggestion to delete wanrouter started earlier with the mainline commit f0d1b3c2bcc5de8a17af5f2274f7fcde8292b5fc ("net/wanrouter: Deprecate and schedule for removal") in May 2012. More importantly, Dan Carpenter found[1] that the driver had a fundamental breakage introduced back in 2008, with commit 7be6065b39c3 ("netdevice wanrouter: Convert directly reference of netdev->priv"). So we know with certainty that the code hasn't been used by anyone willing to at least take the effort to send an e-mail report of breakage for at least 4 years. This commit does a decouple of the wanrouter subsystem, by going after the Makefile/Kconfig and similar files, so that these mainline files that we are keeping do not have the big wanrouter file/driver deletion commit tied into their history. Once this commit is in place, we then can remove the obsolete cyclomx drivers and similar that have a dependency on CONFIG_WAN_ROUTER_DRIVERS.

2012-10-26cgroup: net_cls: Rework update socket logicDaniel Wagner
The cgroup logic part of net_cls is very similar as the one in net_prio. Let's stream line the net_cls logic with the net_prio one. The net_prio update logic was changed by following commit (note there were some changes necessary later on) commit 406a3c638ce8b17d9704052c07955490f732c2b8 Author: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Date: Fri Jul 20 10:39:25 2012 +0000 net: netprio_cgroup: rework update socket logic Instead of updating the sk_cgrp_prioidx struct field on every send this only updates the field when a task is moved via cgroup infrastructure. This allows sockets that may be used by a kernel worker thread to be managed. For example in the iscsi case today a user can put iscsid in a netprio cgroup and control traffic will be sent with the correct sk_cgrp_prioidx value set but as soon as data is sent the kernel worker thread isssues a send and sk_cgrp_prioidx is updated with the kernel worker threads value which is the default case. It seems more correct to only update the field when the user explicitly sets it via control group infrastructure. This allows the users to manage sockets that may be used with other threads. Since classid is now updated when the task is moved between the cgroups, we don't have to call sock_update_classid() from various places to ensure we always using the latest classid value.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs Pull vfs update from Al Viro: - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of that is moved to fs/file.c (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c. As it is, we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of struct file we used to have way back). A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives, disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore. A bunch of relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file leak. - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have). - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and switch of fdinfo to seq_file. - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to take that commit than mess with conflicts. The rest is a separate pile, this was just a mechanical code movement. - a few misc patches all over the place.

Commit 644595f89620 ("compat: Handle COMPAT_USE_64BIT_TIME in net/socket.c") introduced a bug where the helper functions to take either a 64-bit or compat time[spec|val] got the arguments in the wrong order, passing the kernel stack pointer off as a user pointer (and vice versa). Because of the user address range check, that in turn then causes an EFAULT due to the user pointer range checking failing for the kernel address. Incorrectly resuling in a failed system call for 32-bit processes with a 64-bit kernel. On odder architectures like HP-PA (with separate user/kernel address spaces), it can be used read kernel memory.

2012-09-04net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of /proc/PID/fd ↵Masatake YAMATO
entries lsof reports some of socket descriptors as "can't identify protocol" like: [yamato@localhost]/tmp% sudo lsof | grep dbus | grep iden dbus-daem 652 dbus 6u sock ... 17812 can't identify protocol dbus-daem 652 dbus 34u sock ... 24689 can't identify protocol dbus-daem 652 dbus 42u sock ... 24739 can't identify protocol dbus-daem 652 dbus 48u sock ... 22329 can't identify protocol ... lsof cannot resolve the protocol used in a socket because procfs doesn't provide the map between inode number on sockfs and protocol type of the socket. For improving the situation this patch adds an extended attribute named 'system.sockprotoname' in which the protocol name for /proc/PID/fd/SOCKET is stored. So lsof can know the protocol for a given /proc/PID/fd/SOCKET with getxattr system call. A few weeks ago I submitted a patch for the same purpose. The patch was introduced /proc/net/sockfs which enumerates inodes and protocols of all sockets alive on a system. However, it was rejected because (1) a global lock was needed, and (2) the layout of struct socket was changed with the patch. This patch doesn't use any global lock; and doesn't change the layout of any structs. In this patch, a protocol name is stored to dentry->d_name of sockfs when new socket is associated with a file descriptor. Before this patch dentry->d_name was not used; it was just filled with empty string. lsof may use an extended attribute named 'system.sockprotoname' to retrieve the value of dentry->d_name. It is nice if we can see the protocol name with ls -l /proc/PID/fd. However, "socket:[#INODE]", the name format returned from sockfs_dname() was already defined.

2012-08-15net: fix info leak in compat dev_ifconf()Mathias Krause
The implementation of dev_ifconf() for the compat ioctl interface uses an intermediate ifc structure allocated in userland for the duration of the syscall. Though, it fails to initialize the padding bytes inserted for alignment and that for leaks four bytes of kernel stack. Add an explicit memset(0) before filling the structure to avoid the info leak.

2012-07-22net: netprio_cgroup: rework update socket logicJohn Fastabend
Instead of updating the sk_cgrp_prioidx struct field on every send this only updates the field when a task is moved via cgroup infrastructure. This allows sockets that may be used by a kernel worker thread to be managed. For example in the iscsi case today a user can put iscsid in a netprio cgroup and control traffic will be sent with the correct sk_cgrp_prioidx value set but as soon as data is sent the kernel worker thread isssues a send and sk_cgrp_prioidx is updated with the kernel worker threads value which is the default case. It seems more correct to only update the field when the user explicitly sets it via control group infrastructure. This allows the users to manage sockets that may be used with other threads.

2012-07-20tun: fix a crash bug and a memory leakMikulas Patocka
This patch fixes a crash tun_chr_close -> netdev_run_todo -> tun_free_netdev -> sk_release_kernel -> sock_release -> iput(SOCK_INODE(sock)) introduced by commit 1ab5ecb90cb6a3df1476e052f76a6e8f6511cb3d The problem is that this socket is embedded in struct tun_struct, it has no inode, iput is called on invalid inode, which modifies invalid memory and optionally causes a crash. sock_release also decrements sockets_in_use, this causes a bug that "sockets: used" field in /proc/*/net/sockstat keeps on decreasing when creating and closing tun devices. This patch introduces a flag SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED that instructs sock_release to not free the inode and not decrement sockets_in_use, fixing both memory corruption and sockets_in_use underflow. It should be backported to 3.3 an 3.4 stabke. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mikulas@artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

commit 2f533844242 (tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets) added a regression for splice() calls using SPLICE_F_MORE. We need to call tcp_flush() at the end of the last page processed in tcp_sendpages(), or else transmits can be deferred and future sends stall. Add a new internal flag, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, acting like MSG_MORE, but with different semantic. For all sendpage() providers, its a transparent change.

2012-01-05vfs: fix up ENOIOCTLCMD error handlingLinus Torvalds
We're doing some odd things there, which already messes up various users (see the net/socket.c code that this removes), and it was going to add yet more crud to the block layer because of the incorrect error code translation. ENOIOCTLCMD is not an error return that should be returned to user mode from the "ioctl()" system call, but it should *not* be translated as EINVAL ("Invalid argument"). It should be translated as ENOTTY ("Inappropriate ioctl for device"). That EINVAL confusion has apparently so permeated some code that the block layer actually checks for it, which is sad. We continue to do so for now, but add a big comment about how wrong that is, and we should remove it entirely eventually. In the meantime, this tries to keep the changes localized to just the EINVAL -> ENOTTY fix, and removing code that makes it harder to do the right thing.

Define special location values for RX NFC that request the driver to select the actual rule location. This allows for implementation on devices that use hash-based filter lookup, whereas currently the API is more suited to devices with TCAM lookup or linear search.

2011-11-22net: add network priority cgroup infrastructure (v4)Neil Horman
This patch adds in the infrastructure code to create the network priority cgroup. The cgroup, in addition to the standard processes file creates two control files: 1) prioidx - This is a read-only file that exports the index of this cgroup. This is a value that is both arbitrary and unique to a cgroup in this subsystem, and is used to index the per-device priority map 2) priomap - This is a writeable file. On read it reports a table of 2-tuples <name:priority> where name is the name of a network interface and priority is indicates the priority assigned to frames egresessing on the named interface and originating from a pid in this cgroup This cgroup allows for skb priority to be set prior to a root qdisc getting selected.

2011-11-09net: add wireless TX status socket optionJohannes Berg
The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer. Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but injecting it with radiotap and getting the status out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and doesn't work with all hardware. To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX status option for data frame transmissions. This works similar to the existing TX timestamping in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has an int indicating ACK status (0/1). Since it is possible that at some point we will want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more than just the timestamp; keep the old constant as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard to split them up in a way that makes it possible. Thanks to Neil Horman for helping me figure out the functions that add the control messages. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
