Pull networking changes from David S Miller: 1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache. Now lookups go directly into the FIB trie and use prebuilt routes cached there. No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing cache. Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance, no matter what the pattern of traffic we service. This has been almost 2 years in the making. Special thanks to Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who have helped along the way. I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this point. Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to fix things :-) The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description of the motivations and implementation issues. 2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on input. 3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet. 4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao Feng. 5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from Yuval Mintz. 6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet. 7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver, from Jiri Pirko. 9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with embedded gotos. 10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued up in the packet scheduler layer. Whereas the existing BQL (Byte Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --> netdevice queuing levels, this controls the TCP --> pkt_sched queueing levels. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments, from Alexander Duyck. 12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from Eric Dumazet. 13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng. Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up fastopen data. 14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events hit a locked socket. The TCP Small Queues changes added a tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too. From Eric Dumazet. 15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S. Tsirkin. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1870 commits) genetlink: define lockdep_genl_is_held() when CONFIG_LOCKDEP r8169: revert "add byte queue limit support". ipv4: Change rt->rt_iif encoding. net: Make skb->skb_iif always track skb->dev ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding. ipv4: Remove all RTCF_DIRECTSRC handliing. ipv4: Really ignore ICMP address requests/replies. decnet: Don't set RTCF_DIRECTSRC. net/ipv4/ip_vti.c: Fix __rcu warnings detected by sparse. ipv4: Remove redundant assignment rds: set correct msg_namelen openvswitch: potential NULL deref in sample() tcp: dont drop MTU reduction indications bnx2x: Add new 57840 device IDs tcp: avoid oops in tcp_metrics and reset tcpm_stamp niu: Change niu_rbr_fill() to use unlikely() to check niu_rbr_add_page() return value niu: Fix to check for dma mapping errors. net: Fix references to out-of-scope variables in put_cmsg_compat() net: ethernet: davinci_emac: add pm_runtime support net: ethernet: davinci_emac: Remove unnecessary #include ...

2012-07-23ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.David S. Miller
Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of cached RX dst in inet sock. rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively. When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will be set to zero. This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4 specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6 input paths yet. Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check callback. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs Pull the big VFS changes from Al Viro: "This one is *big* and changes quite a few things around VFS. What's in there: - the first of two really major architecture changes - death to open intents. The former is finally there; it was very long in making, but with Miklos getting through really hard and messy final push in fs/namei.c, we finally have it. Unlike his variant, this one doesn't introduce struct opendata; what we have instead is ->atomic_open() taking preallocated struct file * and passing everything via its fields. Instead of returning struct file *, it returns -E... on error, 0 on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g. symlink found on server, etc.). See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open(). That made a lot of goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile: ->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag. With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still visible in namei.h, but not for long. Come the next cycle, declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c itself. [me, miklos, hch] - The second major change: behaviour of final fput(). Now we have __fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep in call stack. That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there. Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which has immediately simplified life for aio.c). We also don't need anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore. There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially asynchronous. For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace. For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there might be more. There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's __fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately). I hope we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for details. [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last cycle] - sync series from Jan - large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones. As far as I understand, those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread calling it. - preparatory bits from unionmount series (from dhowells). - assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place, as usual. This is not the last pile for this cycle; there's at least jlayton's ESTALE work and fsfreeze series (the latter - in dire need of fixes, so I'm not sure it'll make the cut this cycle). I'll probably throw symlink/hardlink restrictions stuff from Kees into the next pile, too.

2012-07-23rds: set correct msg_namelenWeiping Pan
Jay Fenlason (fenlason@redhat.com) found a bug, that recvfrom() on an RDS socket can return the contents of random kernel memory to userspace if it was called with a address length larger than sizeof(struct sockaddr_in). rds_recvmsg() also fails to set the addr_len paramater properly before returning, but that's just a bug. There are also a number of cases wher recvfrom() can return an entirely bogus address. Anything in rds_recvmsg() that returns a non-negative value but does not go through the "sin = (struct sockaddr_in *)msg->msg_name;" code path at the end of the while(1) loop will return up to 128 bytes of kernel memory to userspace. And I write two test programs to reproduce this bug, you will see that in rds_server, fromAddr will be overwritten and the following sock_fd will be destroyed. Yes, it is the programmer's fault to set msg_namelen incorrectly, but it is better to make the kernel copy the real length of address to user space in such case. How to run the test programs ? I test them on 32bit x86 system, 3.5.0-rc7. 1 compile gcc -o rds_client rds_client.c gcc -o rds_server rds_server.c 2 run ./rds_server on one console 3 run ./rds_client on another console 4 you will see something like: server is waiting to receive data... old socket fd=3 server received data from client:data from client msg.msg_namelen=32 new socket fd=-1067277685 sendmsg() : Bad file descriptor /***************** rds_client.c ********************/ int main(void) { int sock_fd; struct sockaddr_in serverAddr; struct sockaddr_in toAddr; char recvBuffer[128] = "data from client"; struct msghdr msg; struct iovec iov; sock_fd = socket(AF_RDS, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0); if (sock_fd < 0) { perror("create socket error\n"); exit(1); } memset(&serverAddr, 0, sizeof(serverAddr)); serverAddr.sin_family = AF_INET; serverAddr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1"); serverAddr.sin_port = htons(4001); if (bind(sock_fd, (struct sockaddr*)&serverAddr, sizeof(serverAddr)) < 0) { perror("bind() error\n"); close(sock_fd); exit(1); } memset(&toAddr, 0, sizeof(toAddr)); toAddr.sin_family = AF_INET; toAddr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1"); toAddr.sin_port = htons(4000); msg.msg_name = &toAddr; msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(toAddr); msg.msg_iov = &iov; msg.msg_iovlen = 1; msg.msg_iov->iov_base = recvBuffer; msg.msg_iov->iov_len = strlen(recvBuffer) + 1; msg.msg_control = 0; msg.msg_controllen = 0; msg.msg_flags = 0; if (sendmsg(sock_fd, &msg, 0) == -1) { perror("sendto() error\n"); close(sock_fd); exit(1); } printf("client send data:%s\n", recvBuffer); memset(recvBuffer, '\0', 128); msg.msg_name = &toAddr; msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(toAddr); msg.msg_iov = &iov; msg.msg_iovlen = 1; msg.msg_iov->iov_base = recvBuffer; msg.msg_iov->iov_len = 128; msg.msg_control = 0; msg.msg_controllen = 0; msg.msg_flags = 0; if (recvmsg(sock_fd, &msg, 0) == -1) { perror("recvmsg() error\n"); close(sock_fd); exit(1); } printf("receive data from server:%s\n", recvBuffer); close(sock_fd); return 0; } /***************** rds_server.c ********************/ int main(void) { struct sockaddr_in fromAddr; int sock_fd; struct sockaddr_in serverAddr; unsigned int addrLen; char recvBuffer[128]; struct msghdr msg; struct iovec iov; sock_fd = socket(AF_RDS, SOCK_SEQPACKET, 0); if(sock_fd < 0) { perror("create socket error\n"); exit(0); } memset(&serverAddr, 0, sizeof(serverAddr)); serverAddr.sin_family = AF_INET; serverAddr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr("127.0.0.1"); serverAddr.sin_port = htons(4000); if (bind(sock_fd, (struct sockaddr*)&serverAddr, sizeof(serverAddr)) < 0) { perror("bind error\n"); close(sock_fd); exit(1); } printf("server is waiting to receive data...\n"); msg.msg_name = &fromAddr; /* * I add 16 to sizeof(fromAddr), ie 32, * and pay attention to the definition of fromAddr, * recvmsg() will overwrite sock_fd, * since kernel will copy 32 bytes to userspace. * * If you just use sizeof(fromAddr), it works fine. * */ msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(fromAddr) + 16; /* msg.msg_namelen = sizeof(fromAddr); */ msg.msg_iov = &iov; msg.msg_iovlen = 1; msg.msg_iov->iov_base = recvBuffer; msg.msg_iov->iov_len = 128; msg.msg_control = 0; msg.msg_controllen = 0; msg.msg_flags = 0; while (1) { printf("old socket fd=%d\n", sock_fd); if (recvmsg(sock_fd, &msg, 0) == -1) { perror("recvmsg() error\n"); close(sock_fd); exit(1); } printf("server received data from client:%s\n", recvBuffer); printf("msg.msg_namelen=%d\n", msg.msg_namelen); printf("new socket fd=%d\n", sock_fd); strcat(recvBuffer, "--data from server"); if (sendmsg(sock_fd, &msg, 0) == -1) { perror("sendmsg()\n"); close(sock_fd); exit(1); } } close(sock_fd); return 0; } Signed-off-by: Weiping Pan <wpan@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-23tcp: dont drop MTU reduction indicationsEric Dumazet
ICMP messages generated in output path if frame length is bigger than mtu are actually lost because socket is owned by user (doing the xmit) One example is the ipgre_tunnel_xmit() calling icmp_send(skb, ICMP_DEST_UNREACH, ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED, htonl(mtu)); We had a similar case fixed in commit a34a101e1e6 (ipv6: disable GSO on sockets hitting dst_allfrag). Problem of such fix is that it relied on retransmit timers, so short tcp sessions paid a too big latency increase price. This patch uses the tcp_release_cb() infrastructure so that MTU reduction messages (ICMP messages) are not lost, and no extra delay is added in TCP transmits.

2012-07-22Merge branch 'kill_rtcache'David S. Miller
The ipv4 routing cache is non-deterministic, performance wise, and is subject to reasonably easy to launch denial of service attacks. The routing cache works great for well behaved traffic, and the world was a much friendlier place when the tradeoffs that led to the routing cache's design were considered. What it boils down to is that the performance of the routing cache is a product of the traffic patterns seen by a system rather than being a product of the contents of the routing tables. The former of which is controllable by external entitites. Even for "well behaved" legitimate traffic, high volume sites can see hit rates in the routing cache of only ~%10. The general flow of this patch series is that first the routing cache is removed. We build a completely new rtable entry every lookup request. Next we make some simplifications due to the fact that removing the routing cache causes several members of struct rtable to become no longer necessary. Then we need to make some amends such that we can legally cache pre-constructed routes in the FIB nexthops. Firstly, we need to invalidate routes which are hit with nexthop exceptions. Secondly we have to change the semantics of rt->rt_gateway such that zero means that the destination is on-link and non-zero otherwise. Now that the preparations are ready, we start caching precomputed routes in the FIB nexthops. Output and input routes need different kinds of care when determining if we can legally do such caching or not. The details are in the commit log messages for those changes. The patch series then winds down with some more struct rtable simplifications and other tidy ups that remove unnecessary overhead. On a SPARC-T3 output route lookups are ~876 cycles. Input route lookups are ~1169 cycles with rpfilter disabled, and about ~1468 cycles with rpfilter enabled. These measurements were taken with the kbench_mod test module in the net_test_tools GIT tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net_test_tools.git That GIT tree also includes a udpflood tester tool and stresses route lookups on packet output. For example, on the same SPARC-T3 system we can run: time ./udpflood -l 10000000 10.2.2.11 with routing cache: real 1m21.955s user 0m6.530s sys 1m15.390s without routing cache: real 1m31.678s user 0m6.520s sys 1m25.140s Performance undoubtedly can easily be improved further. For example fib_table_lookup() performs a lot of excessive computations with all the masking and shifting, some of it conditionalized to deal with edge cases. Also, Eric's no-ref optimization for input route lookups can be re-instated for the FIB nexthop caching code path. I would be really pleased if someone would work on that. In fact anyone suitable motivated can just fire up perf on the loading of the test net_test_tools benchmark kernel module. I spend much of my time going: bash# perf record insmod ./kbench_mod.ko dst=172.30.42.22 src=74.128.0.1 iif=2 bash# perf report Thanks to helpful feedback from Joe Perches, Eric Dumazet, Ben Hutchings, and others.

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.

2012-07-22sctp: Implement quick failover draft from tsvwgNeil Horman
I've seen several attempts recently made to do quick failover of sctp transports by reducing various retransmit timers and counters. While its possible to implement a faster failover on multihomed sctp associations, its not particularly robust, in that it can lead to unneeded retransmits, as well as false connection failures due to intermittent latency on a network. Instead, lets implement the new ietf quick failover draft found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nishida-tsvwg-sctp-failover-05 This will let the sctp stack identify transports that have had a small number of errors, and avoid using them quickly until their reliability can be re-established. I've tested this out on two virt guests connected via multiple isolated virt networks and believe its in compliance with the above draft and works well.

These drivers update their stats in a BH context and therefore should use u64_stats_fetch_begin_bh/u64_stats_fetch_retry_bh instead of u64_stats_fetch_begin/u64_stats_fetch_retry when reading the stats.

2012-07-20openvswitch: Check gso_type for correct sk_buff in queue_gso_packets().Ben Pfaff
At the point where it was used, skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type referred to a post-GSO sk_buff. Thus, it would always be 0. We want to know the pre-GSO gso_type, so we need to obtain it before segmenting. Before this change, the kernel would pass inconsistent data to userspace: packets for UDP fragments with nonzero offset would be passed along with flow keys that indicate a zero offset (that is, the flow key for "later" fragments claimed to be "first" fragments). This inconsistency tended to confuse Open vSwitch userspace, causing it to log messages about "failed to flow_del" the flows with "later" fragments.

2012-07-20ipv4: Kill rt->fiDavid S. Miller
It's not really needed. We only grabbed a reference to the fib_info for the sake of fib_info local metrics. However, fib_info objects are freed using RCU, as are therefore their private metrics (if any). We would have triggered a route cache flush if we eliminated a reference to a fib_info object in the routing tables. Therefore, any existing cached routes will first check and see that they have been invalidated before an errant reference to these metric values would occur. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-20ipv4: Turn rt->rt_route_iif into rt->rt_is_input.David S. Miller
That is this value's only use, as a boolean to indicate whether a route is an input route or not. So implement it that way, using a u16 gap present in the struct already. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-20ipv4: Kill rt->rt_oifDavid S. Miller
Never actually used. It was being set on output routes to the original OIF specified in the flow key used for the lookup. Adjust the only user, ipmr_rt_fib_lookup(), for greater correctness of the flowi4_oif and flowi4_iif values, thanks to feedback from Julian Anastasov. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-20ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops.David S. Miller
Caching input routes is slightly simpler than output routes, since we don't need to be concerned with nexthop exceptions. (locally destined, and routed packets, never trigger PMTU events or redirects that will be processed by us). However, we have to elide caching for the DIRECTSRC and non-zero itag cases.

2012-07-20ipv4: Cache output routes in fib_info nexthops.David S. Miller
If we have an output route that lacks nexthop exceptions, we can cache it in the FIB info nexthop. Such routes will have DST_HOST cleared because such routes refer to a family of destinations, rather than just one. The sequence of the handling of exceptions during route lookup is adjusted to make the logic work properly. Before we allocate the route, we lookup the exception. Then we know if we will cache this route or not, and therefore whether DST_HOST should be set on the allocated route. Then we use DST_HOST to key off whether we should store the resulting route, during rt_set_nexthop(), in the FIB nexthop cache. With help from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-20ipv4: Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway.David S. Miller
In order to allow prefixed routes, we have to adjust how rt_gateway is set and interpreted. The new interpretation is: 1) rt_gateway == 0, destination is on-link, nexthop is iph->daddr 2) rt_gateway != 0, destination requires a nexthop gateway Abstract the fetching of the proper nexthop value using a new inline helper, rt_nexthop(), as suggested by Joe Perches.

2012-07-20ipv4: Kill ip_route_input_noref().David Miller

2012-07-20ipv4: Delete routing cache.David S. Miller
The ipv4 routing cache is non-deterministic, performance wise, and is subject to reasonably easy to launch denial of service attacks. The routing cache works great for well behaved traffic, and the world was a much friendlier place when the tradeoffs that led to the routing cache's design were considered. What it boils down to is that the performance of the routing cache is a product of the traffic patterns seen by a system rather than being a product of the contents of the routing tables. The former of which is controllable by external entitites. Even for "well behaved" legitimate traffic, high volume sites can see hit rates in the routing cache of only ~%10. Signed-off-by: David S.

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>
