net: revert "net: get rid of an signed integer overflow in ip_idents_reserve()"

2020-05-17T19:33:51+00:00

Commit adb03115f459 ("net: get rid of an signed integer overflow in ip_idents_reserve()") used atomic_cmpxchg to replace "atomic_add_return" inside the function "ip_idents_reserve". The reason was to avoid UBSAN warning. However, this change has caused performance degrade and in GCC-8, fno-strict-overflow is now mapped to -fwrapv -fwrapv-pointer and signed integer overflow is now undefined by default at all optimization levels[1]. Moreover, it was a bug in UBSAN vs -fwrapv /-fno-strict-overflow, so Let's revert it safely.

net: ipv4: really enforce backoff for redirects

2020-05-09T05:52:57+00:00

In commit b406472b5ad7 ("net: ipv4: avoid mixed n_redirects and rate_tokens usage") I missed the fact that a 0 'rate_tokens' will bypass the backoff algorithm. Since rate_tokens is cleared after a redirect silence, and never incremented on redirects, if the host keeps receiving packets requiring redirect it will reply ignoring the backoff. Additionally, the 'rate_last' field will be updated with the cadence of the ingress packet requiring redirect. If that rate is high enough, that will prevent the host from generating any other kind of ICMP messages The check for a zero 'rate_tokens' value was likely a shortcut to avoid the more complex backoff algorithm after a redirect silence period. Address the issue checking for 'n_redirects' instead, which is incremented on successful redirect, and does not interfere with other ICMP replies.

ipv4: Add "offload" and "trap" indications to routes

2020-01-15T02:53:35+00:00

When performing L3 offload, routes and nexthops are usually programmed into two different tables in the underlying device. Therefore, the fact that a nexthop resides in hardware does not necessarily mean that all the associated routes also reside in hardware and vice-versa. While the kernel can signal to user space the presence of a nexthop in hardware (via 'RTNH_F_OFFLOAD'), it does not have a corresponding flag for routes. In addition, the fact that a route resides in hardware does not necessarily mean that the traffic is offloaded. For example, unreachable routes (i.e., 'RTN_UNREACHABLE') are programmed to trap packets to the CPU so that the kernel will be able to generate the appropriate ICMP error packet. This patch adds an "offload" and "trap" indications to IPv4 routes, so that users will have better visibility into the offload process. 'struct fib_alias' is extended with two new fields that indicate if the route resides in hardware or not and if it is offloading traffic from the kernel or trapping packets to it. Note that the new fields are added in the 6 bytes hole and therefore the struct still fits in a single cache line [1]. Capable drivers are expected to invoke fib_alias_hw_flags_set() with the route's key in order to set the flags. The indications are dumped to user space via a new flags (i.e., 'RTM_F_OFFLOAD' and 'RTM_F_TRAP') in the 'rtm_flags' field in the ancillary header. v2: * Make use of 'struct fib_rt_info' in fib_alias_hw_flags_set() [1] struct fib_alias { struct hlist_node fa_list; /* 0 16 */ struct fib_info * fa_info; /* 16 8 */ u8 fa_tos; /* 24 1 */ u8 fa_type; /* 25 1 */ u8 fa_state; /* 26 1 */ u8 fa_slen; /* 27 1 */ u32 tb_id; /* 28 4 */ s16 fa_default; /* 32 2 */ u8 offload:1; /* 34: 0 1 */ u8 trap:1; /* 34: 1 1 */ u8 unused:6; /* 34: 2 1 */ /* XXX 5 bytes hole, try to pack */ struct callback_head rcu __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /* 40 16 */ /* size: 56, cachelines: 1, members: 12 */ /* sum members: 50, holes: 1, sum holes: 5 */ /* sum bitfield members: 8 bits (1 bytes) */ /* forced alignments: 1, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 5 */ /* last cacheline: 56 bytes */ } __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel Reviewed-by: David Ahern Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv4: Encapsulate function arguments in a struct

2020-01-15T02:53:35+00:00

fib_dump_info() is used to prepare RTM_{NEW,DEL}ROUTE netlink messages using the passed arguments. Currently, the function takes 11 arguments, 6 of which are attributes of the route being dumped (e.g., prefix, TOS). The next patch will need the function to also dump to user space an indication if the route is present in hardware or not. Instead of passing yet another argument, change the function to take a struct containing the different route attributes. v2: * Name last argument of fib_dump_info() * Move 'struct fib_rt_info' to include/net/ip_fib.h so that it could later be passed to fib_alias_hw_flags_set() Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel Reviewed-by: David Ahern Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S.
