net: Don't copy pfmemalloc flag in __copy_skb_header()

2018-07-25T09:26:11+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8b7008620b8452728cadead460a36f64ed78c460 ] The pfmemalloc flag indicates that the skb was allocated from the PFMEMALLOC reserves, and the flag is currently copied on skb copy and clone. However, an skb copied from an skb flagged with pfmemalloc wasn't necessarily allocated from PFMEMALLOC reserves, and on the other hand an skb allocated that way might be copied from an skb that wasn't. So we should not copy the flag on skb copy, and rather decide whether to allow an skb to be associated with sockets unrelated to page reclaim depending only on how it was allocated. Move the pfmemalloc flag before headers_start[0] using an existing 1-bit hole, so that __copy_skb_header() doesn't copy it. When cloning, we'll now take care of this flag explicitly, contravening to the warning comment of __skb_clone(). While at it, restore the newline usage introduced by commit b19372273164 ("net: reorganize sk_buff for faster __copy_skb_header()") to visually separate bytes used in bitfields after headers_start[0], that was gone after commit a9e419dc7be6 ("netfilter: merge ctinfo into nfct pointer storage area"), and describe the pfmemalloc flag in the kernel-doc structure comment. This doesn't change the size of sk_buff or cacheline boundaries, but consolidates the 15 bits hole before tc_index into a 2 bytes hole before csum, that could now be filled more easily.

inet: frags: get rid of ipfrag_skb_cb/FRAG_CB

2018-04-01T03:25:40+00:00

ip_defrag uses skb->cb[] to store the fragment offset, and unfortunately this integer is currently in a different cache line than skb->next, meaning that we use two cache lines per skb when finding the insertion point. By aliasing skb->ip_defrag_offset and skb->dev, we pack all the fields in a single cache line and save precious memory bandwidth. Note that after the fast path added by Changli Gao in commit d6bebca92c66 ("fragment: add fast path for in-order fragments") this change wont help the fast path, since we still need to access prev->len (2nd cache line), but will show great benefits when slow path is entered, since we perform a linear scan of a potentially long list. Also, note that this potential long list is an attack vector, we might consider also using an rb-tree there eventually. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Fun set of conflict resolutions here... For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel adds. Trivially resolved. In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in 'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed. In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the 'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied over here. The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code. The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial, the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and here are their notes: ==================== Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch and the for-next branch. This merge resolves those conflicts and provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can be based. Conflicts: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524 (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support) add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the init/de-init functions used by mlx5. To support the new representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list added by the representors patch needed to be modified to match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup patch. Updates: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function names as changed by cleanup patch drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/ib_rep.c - Update init/de-init stage list to match new order from cleanup patch ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf 2018-03-08 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree. The main changes are: 1) Fix various BPF helpers which adjust the skb and its GSO information with regards to SCTP GSO. The latter is a special case where gso_size is of value GSO_BY_FRAGS, so mangling that will end up corrupting the skb, thus bail out when seeing SCTP GSO packets, from Daniel(s). 2) Fix a compilation error in bpftool where BPF_FS_MAGIC is not defined due to too old kernel headers in the system, from Jiri. 3) Increase the number of x64 JIT passes in order to allow larger images to converge instead of punting them to interpreter or having them rejected when the interpreter is not built into the kernel, from Daniel. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

All of the conflicts were cases of overlapping changes. In net/core/devlink.c, we have to make care that the resouce size_params have become a struct member rather than a pointer to such an object. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: make skb_gso_*_seglen functions private

2018-03-04T22:49:17+00:00

They're very hard to use properly as they do not consider the GSO_BY_FRAGS case. Code should use skb_gso_validate_network_len and skb_gso_validate_mac_len as they do consider this case. Make the seglen functions static, which stops people using them outside of skbuff.c Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens Reviewed-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: rename skb_gso_validate_mtu -> skb_gso_validate_network_len

2018-03-04T22:49:17+00:00

If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the network length (L3 headers + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small enough to fit within a given MTU? skb_gso_validate_mtu gives you the answer to that question. However, we recently added to add a way to validate the MAC length of a split GSO skb (L2+L3+L4+payload), and the names get confusing, so rename skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len Signed-off-by: Daniel Axtens Reviewed-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner Signed-off-by: David S.

bpf: fix bpf_skb_adjust_net/bpf_skb_proto_xlat to deal with gso sctp skbs

2018-03-03T21:01:11+00:00

SCTP GSO skbs have a gso_size of GSO_BY_FRAGS, so any sort of unconditionally mangling of that will result in nonsense value and would corrupt the skb later on. Therefore, i) add two helpers skb_increase_gso_size() and skb_decrease_gso_size() that would throw a one time warning and bail out for such skbs and ii) refuse and return early with an error in those BPF helpers that are affected. We do need to bail out as early as possible from there before any changes on the skb have been performed.
