2016-03-20tunnels: Don't apply GRO to multiple layers of encapsulation.Jesse Gross1-1/+1
When drivers express support for TSO of encapsulated packets, they only mean that they can do it for one layer of encapsulation. Supporting additional levels would mean updating, at a minimum, more IP length fields and they are unaware of this. No encapsulation device expresses support for handling offloaded encapsulated packets, so we won't generate these types of frames in the transmit path. However, GRO doesn't have a check for multiple levels of encapsulation and will attempt to build them. UDP tunnel GRO actually does prevent this situation but it only handles multiple UDP tunnels stacked on top of each other. This generalizes that solution to prevent any kind of tunnel stacking that would cause problems.

2016-02-19net: make netdev_for_each_lower_dev safe for device removalNikolay Aleksandrov1-2/+2
When I used netdev_for_each_lower_dev in commit bad531623253 ("vrf: remove slave queue and private slave struct") I thought that it acts like netdev_for_each_lower_private and can be used to remove the current device from the list while walking, but unfortunately it acts more like netdev_for_each_lower_private_rcu and doesn't allow it. The difference is where the "iter" points to, right now it points to the current element and that makes it impossible to remove it. Change the logic to be similar to netdev_for_each_lower_private and make it point to the "next" element so we can safely delete the current one. VRF is the only such user right now, there's no change for the read-only users.

2016-02-18IFF_NO_QUEUE: Fix for drivers not calling ether_setup()Phil Sutter1-1/+3
My implementation around IFF_NO_QUEUE driver flag assumed that leaving tx_queue_len untouched (specifically: not setting it to zero) by drivers would make it possible to assign a regular qdisc to them without having to worry about setting tx_queue_len to a useful value. This was only partially true: I overlooked that some drivers don't call ether_setup() and therefore not initialize tx_queue_len to the default value of 1000. Consequently, removing the workarounds in place for that case in qdisc implementations which cared about it (namely, pfifo, bfifo, gred, htb, plug and sfb) leads to problems with these specific interface types and qdiscs. Luckily, there's already a sanitization point for drivers setting tx_queue_len to zero, which can be reused to assign the fallback value most qdisc implementations used, which is 1.

2016-02-11net: bulk free SKBs that were delay free'ed due to IRQ contextJesper Dangaard Brouer1-1/+7
The network stack defers SKBs free, in-case free happens in IRQ or when IRQs are disabled. This happens in __dev_kfree_skb_irq() that writes SKBs that were free'ed during IRQ to the softirq completion queue (softnet_data.completion_queue). These SKBs are naturally delayed, and cleaned up during NET_TX_SOFTIRQ in function net_tx_action(). Take advantage of this a use the skb defer and flush API, as we are already in softirq context. For modern drivers this rarely happens. Although most drivers do call dev_kfree_skb_any(), which detects the situation and calls __dev_kfree_skb_irq() when needed. This due to netpoll can call from IRQ context. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-02-11net: bulk free infrastructure for NAPI context, use napi_consume_skbJesper Dangaard Brouer1-0/+1
Discovered that network stack were hitting the kmem_cache/SLUB slowpath when freeing SKBs. Doing bulk free with kmem_cache_free_bulk can speedup this slowpath. NAPI context is a bit special, lets take advantage of that for bulk free'ing SKBs. In NAPI context we are running in softirq, which gives us certain protection. A softirq can run on several CPUs at once. BUT the important part is a softirq will never preempt another softirq running on the same CPU. This gives us the opportunity to access per-cpu variables in softirq context. Extend napi_alloc_cache (before only contained page_frag_cache) to be a struct with a small array based stack for holding SKBs. Introduce a SKB defer and flush API for accessing this. Introduce napi_consume_skb() as replacement for e.g. dev_consume_skb_any() when running in NAPI context. A small trick to handle/detect if we are called from netpoll is to see if budget is 0. In that case, we need to invoke dev_consume_skb_irq(). Joint work with Alexander Duyck.

2016-01-21gro: Make GRO aware of lightweight tunnels.Jesse Gross1-2/+5
GRO is currently not aware of tunnel metadata generated by lightweight tunnels and stored in the dst. This leads to two possible problems: * Incorrectly merging two frames that have different metadata. * Leaking of allocated metadata from merged frames. This avoids those problems by comparing the tunnel information before merging, similar to how we handle other metadata (such as vlan tags), and releasing any state when we are done.

2016-01-11net, sched: add clsact qdiscDaniel Borkmann1-8/+74
This work adds a generalization of the ingress qdisc as a qdisc holding only classifiers. The clsact qdisc works on ingress, but also on egress. In both cases, it's execution happens without taking the qdisc lock, and the main difference for the egress part compared to prior version of [1] is that this can be applied with _any_ underlying real egress qdisc (also classless ones). Besides solving the use-case of [1], that is, allowing for more programmability on assigning skb->priority for the mqprio case that is supported by most popular 10G+ NICs, it also opens up a lot more flexibility for other tc applications. The main work on classification can already be done at clsact egress time if the use-case allows and state stored for later retrieval f.e. again in skb->priority with major/minors (which is checked by most classful qdiscs before consulting tc_classify()) and/or in other skb fields like skb->tc_index for some light-weight post-processing to get to the eventual classid in case of a classful qdisc. Another use case is that the clsact egress part allows to have a central egress counterpart to the ingress classifiers, so that classifiers can easily share state (e.g. in cls_bpf via eBPF maps) for ingress and egress. Currently, default setups like mq + pfifo_fast would require for this to use, for example, prio qdisc instead (to get a tc_classify() run) and to duplicate the egress classifier for each queue. With clsact, it allows for leaving the setup as is, it can additionally assign skb->priority to put the skb in one of pfifo_fast's bands and it can share state with maps. Moreover, we can access the skb's dst entry (f.e. to retrieve tclassid) w/o the need to perform a skb_dst_force() to hold on to it any longer. In lwt case, we can also use this facility to setup dst metadata via cls_bpf (bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key()) without needing a real egress qdisc just for that (case of IFF_NO_QUEUE devices, for example). The realization can be done without any changes to the scheduler core framework. All it takes is that we have two a-priori defined minors/child classes, where we can mux between ingress and egress classifier list (dev->ingress_cl_list and dev->egress_cl_list, latter stored close to dev->_tx to avoid extra cacheline miss for moderate loads). The egress part is a bit similar modelled to handle_ing() and patched to a noop in case the functionality is not used. Both handlers are now called sch_handle_ingress() and sch_handle_egress(), code sharing among the two doesn't seem practical as there are various minor differences in both paths, so that making them conditional in a single handler would rather slow things down. Full compatibility to ingress qdisc is provided as well. Since both piggyback on TC_H_CLSACT, only one of them (ingress/clsact) can exist per netdevice, and thus ingress qdisc specific behaviour can be retained for user space. This means, either a user does 'tc qdisc add dev foo ingress' and configures ingress qdisc as usual, or the 'tc qdisc add dev foo clsact' alternative, where both, ingress and egress classifier can be configured as in the below example. ingress qdisc supports attaching classifier to any minor number whereas clsact has two fixed minors for muxing between the lists, therefore to not break user space setups, they are better done as two separate qdiscs. I decided to extend the sch_ingress module with clsact functionality so that commonly used code can be reused, the module is being aliased with sch_clsact so that it can be auto-loaded properly. Alternative would have been to add a flag when initializing ingress to alter its behaviour plus aliasing to a different name (as it's more than just ingress). However, the first would end up, based on the flag, choosing the new/old behaviour by calling different function implementations to handle each anyway, the latter would require to register ingress qdisc once again under different alias. So, this really begs to provide a minimal, cleaner approach to have Qdisc_ops and Qdisc_class_ops by its own that share callbacks used by both. Example, adding qdisc: # tc qdisc add dev foo clsact # tc qdisc show dev foo qdisc mq 0: root qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :1 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :2 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :3 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :4 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 qdisc clsact ffff: parent ffff:fff1 Adding filters (deleting, etc works analogous by specifying ingress/egress): # tc filter add dev foo ingress bpf da obj bar.o sec ingress # tc filter add dev foo egress bpf da obj bar.o sec egress # tc filter show dev foo ingress filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x1 bar.o:[ingress] direct-action # tc filter show dev foo egress filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x1 bar.o:[egress] direct-action A 'tc filter show dev foo' or 'tc filter show dev foo parent ffff:' will show an empty list for clsact. Either using the parent names (ingress/egress) or specifying the full major/minor will then show the related filter lists.

Add skb_csum_offload_chk driver helper function to determine if a device with limited checksum offload capabilities is able to offload the checksum for a given packet. This patch includes: - The skb_csum_offload_chk function. Returns true if checksum is offloadable, else false. Optionally, in the case that the checksum is not offloable, the function can call skb_checksum_help to resolve the checksum. skb_csum_offload_chk also returns whether the checksum refers to an encapsulated checksum. - Definition of skb_csum_offl_spec structure that caller uses to indicate rules about what it can offload (e.g. IPv4/v6, TCP/UDP only, whether encapsulated checksums can be offloaded, whether checksum with IPv6 extension headers can be offloaded). - Ancilary functions called skb_csum_offload_chk_help, skb_csum_off_chk_help_cmn, skb_csum_off_chk_help_cmn_v4_only.

2015-11-19net: provide generic busy polling to all NAPI driversEric Dumazet1-0/+7
NAPI drivers no longer need to observe a particular protocol to benefit from busy polling (CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL=y) napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() are automatically called from core networking stack, respectively from netif_napi_add() and netif_napi_del() This patch depends on free_netdev() and netif_napi_del() being called from process context, which seems to be the norm. Drivers might still prefer to call napi_hash_del() on their own, since they might combine all the rcu grace periods into a single one, knowing their NAPI structures lifetime, while core networking stack has no idea of a possible combining. Once this patch proves to not bring serious regressions, we will cleanup drivers to either remove napi_hash_del() or provide appropriate rcu grace periods combining.

2015-11-19net: network drivers no longer need to implement ndo_busy_poll()Eric Dumazet1-5/+20
Instead of having to implement complex ndo_busy_poll() method, drivers can simply rely on NAPI poll logic. Busy polling gains are mainly coming from polling itself, not on exact details on how we poll the device. ndo_busy_poll() if implemented can avoid touching napi state, but it adds extra synchronization between normal napi->poll() and busy poll handler, slowing down the common path (non busy polling) with extra atomic operations. In practice few drivers ever got busy poll because of the complexity. We could go one step further, and make busy polling available for all NAPI drivers, but this would require that all netif_napi_del() calls are done in process context so that we can call synchronize_rcu(). Full audit would be required. Before this is done, a driver still needs to call : - skb_mark_napi_id() for each skb provided to the stack. - napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() to allocate a napi_id per napi struct. - Make sure RCU grace period is respected after napi_hash_del() before memory containing napi structure is freed.

Instead of blocking BH in whole sk_busy_loop(), block them only around ->ndo_busy_poll() calls. This has many benefits. 1) allow tunneled traffic to use busy poll as well as native traffic. Tunnels handlers usually call netif_rx() and depend on net_rx_action() being run (from sofirq handler) 2) allow RFS/RPS being used (sending IPI to other cpus if needed) 3) use the 'lets burn cpu cycles' budget to do useful work (like TX completions, timers, RCU callbacks...) 4) reduce BH latencies, making busy poll a better citizen.

2015-11-03net/core: generic support for disabling netdev features down stackJarod Wilson1-0/+50
There are some netdev features, which when disabled on an upper device, such as a bonding master or a bridge, must be disabled and cannot be re-enabled on underlying devices. This is a rework of an earlier more heavy-handed appraoch, which simply disables and prevents re-enabling of netdev features listed in a new define in include/net/netdev_features.h, NETIF_F_UPPER_DISABLES. Any upper device that disables a flag in that feature mask, the disabling will propagate down the stack, and any lower device that has any upper device with one of those flags disabled should not be able to enable said flag. Initially, only LRO is included for proof of concept, and because this code effectively does the same thing as dev_disable_lro(), though it will also activate from the ethtool path, which was one of the goals here. [root@dell-per730-01 ~]# ethtool -k bond0 |grep large large-receive-offload: on [root@dell-per730-01 ~]# ethtool -k p5p1 |grep large large-receive-offload: on [root@dell-per730-01 ~]# ethtool -K bond0 lro off [root@dell-per730-01 ~]# ethtool -k bond0 |grep large large-receive-offload: off [root@dell-per730-01 ~]# ethtool -k p5p1 |grep large large-receive-offload: off dmesg dump: [ 1033.277986] bond0: Disabling feature 0x0000000000008000 on lower dev p5p2.

Turning LRO on or off on the master also turns it on or off on each of the slaves, new slaves are added with LRO in the same state as the master, and LRO can't be toggled on the slaves. Also, this should largely remove the need for dev_disable_lro(), and most, if not all, of its call sites can be replaced by simply making sure NETIF_F_LRO isn't included in the relevant device's feature flags. Note that this patch is driven by bug reports from users saying it was confusing that bonds and slaves had different settings for the same features, and while it won't be 100% in sync if a lower device doesn't support a feature like LRO, I think this is a good step in the right direction.

2015-09-24netpoll: Close race condition between poll_one_napi and napi_disableNeil Horman1-0/+2
Drivers might call napi_disable while not holding the napi instance poll_lock. In those instances, its possible for a race condition to exist between poll_one_napi and napi_disable. That is to say, poll_one_napi only tests the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit to see if there is work to do during a poll, and as such the following may happen: CPU0 CPU1 ndo_tx_timeout napi_poll_dev napi_disable poll_one_napi test_and_set_bit (ret 0) test_bit (ret 1) reset adapter napi_poll_routine If the adapter gets a tx timeout without a napi instance scheduled, its possible for the adapter to think it has exclusive access to the hardware (as the napi instance is now scheduled via the napi_disable call), while the netpoll code thinks there is simply work to do. The result is parallel hardware access leading to corrupt data structures in the driver, and a crash. Additionaly, there is another, more critical race between netpoll and napi_disable. The disabled napi state is actually identical to the scheduled state for a given napi instance. The implication being that, if a napi instance is disabled, a netconsole instance would see the napi state of the device as having been scheduled, and poll it, likely while the driver was dong something requiring exclusive access. In the case above, its fairly clear that not having the rings in a state ready to be polled will cause any number of crashes. The fix should be pretty easy. netpoll uses its own bit to indicate that that the napi instance is in a state of being serviced by netpoll (NAPI_STATE_NPSVC). We can just gate disabling on that bit as well as the sched bit. That should prevent netpoll from conducting a napi poll if we convert its set bit to a test_and_set_bit operation to provide mutual exclusion Change notes: V2) Remove a trailing whtiespace Resubmit with proper subject prefix V3) Clean up spacing nits Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: "David S.

Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process packets in. As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in many cases a code simplification. To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn just silently drops the struct net. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2015-09-18bridge: Add br_netif_receive_skb remove netif_receive_skb_skEric W. Biederman1-2/+2
netif_receive_skb_sk is only called once in the bridge code, replace it with a bridge specific function that calls netif_receive_skb. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-09-18net: Remove dev_queue_xmit_skEric W. Biederman1-2/+2
A function with weird arguments that it will never use to accomdate a netfilter callback prototype is absolutely in the core of the networking stack. Frankly it does not make sense and it causes a lot of confusion as to why arguments that are never used are being passed to the function. As I am preparing to make a second change to arguments to the okfn even the names stops making sense. As I have removed the two callers of this function remove this confusion from the networking stack. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-08-28net: fix IFF_NO_QUEUE for drivers using alloc_netdevPhil Sutter1-1/+1
Printing a warning in alloc_netdev_mqs() if tx_queue_len is zero and IFF_NO_QUEUE not set is not appropriate since drivers may use one of the alloc_netdev* macros instead of alloc_etherdev*, thereby not intentionally leaving tx_queue_len uninitialized. Instead check here if tx_queue_len is zero and set IFF_NO_QUEUE, so the value of tx_queue_len can be ignored in net/sched_generic.c.
