net: Remove the obsolte u64_stats_fetch_*_irq() users (drivers).

2022-10-29T03:13:54+00:00

Now that the 32bit UP oddity is gone and 32bit uses always a sequence count, there is no need for the fetch_irq() variants anymore. Convert to the regular interface.

net: ifb: support ethtools stats

2021-11-30T04:15:03+00:00

With this feature, we can use the ethtools to get tx/rx queues stats. This patch, introduce the ifb_update_q_stats helper to update the queues stats, and ifb_q_stats to simplify the codes.

ifb: fix building without CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT

2021-10-29T13:01:11+00:00

The driver no longer depends on this option, but it fails to build if it's disabled because the skb->tc_skip_classify is hidden behind an #ifdef: drivers/net/ifb.c:81:8: error: no member named 'tc_skip_classify' in 'struct sk_buff' skb->tc_skip_classify = 1; Use the same #ifdef around the assignment.

netfilter: Introduce egress hook

2021-10-14T21:06:28+00:00

Support classifying packets with netfilter on egress to satisfy user requirements such as: * outbound security policies for containers (Laura) * filtering and mangling intra-node Direct Server Return (DSR) traffic on a load balancer (Laura) * filtering locally generated traffic coming in through AF_PACKET, such as local ARP traffic generated for clustering purposes or DHCP (Laura; the AF_PACKET plumbing is contained in a follow-up commit) * L2 filtering from ingress and egress for AVB (Audio Video Bridging) and gPTP with nftables (Pablo) * in the future: in-kernel NAT64/NAT46 (Pablo) The egress hook introduced herein complements the ingress hook added by commit e687ad60af09 ("netfilter: add netfilter ingress hook after handle_ing() under unique static key"). A patch for nftables to hook up egress rules from user space has been submitted separately, so users may immediately take advantage of the feature. Alternatively or in addition to netfilter, packets can be classified with traffic control (tc). On ingress, packets are classified first by tc, then by netfilter. On egress, the order is reversed for symmetry. Conceptually, tc and netfilter can be thought of as layers, with netfilter layered above tc. Traffic control is capable of redirecting packets to another interface (man 8 tc-mirred). E.g., an ingress packet may be redirected from the host namespace to a container via a veth connection: tc ingress (host) -> tc egress (veth host) -> tc ingress (veth container) In this case, netfilter egress classifying is not performed when leaving the host namespace! That's because the packet is still on the tc layer. If tc redirects the packet to a physical interface in the host namespace such that it leaves the system, the packet is never subjected to netfilter egress classifying. That is only logical since it hasn't passed through netfilter ingress classifying either. Packets can alternatively be redirected at the netfilter layer using nft fwd. Such a packet *is* subjected to netfilter egress classifying since it has reached the netfilter layer. Internally, the skb->nf_skip_egress flag controls whether netfilter is invoked on egress by __dev_queue_xmit(). Because __dev_queue_xmit() may be called recursively by tunnel drivers such as vxlan, the flag is reverted to false after sch_handle_egress(). This ensures that netfilter is applied both on the overlay and underlying network. Interaction between tc and netfilter is possible by setting and querying skb->mark. If netfilter egress classifying is not enabled on any interface, it is patched out of the data path by way of a static_key and doesn't make a performance difference that is discernible from noise: Before: 1537 1538 1538 1537 1538 1537 Mb/sec After: 1536 1534 1539 1539 1539 1540 Mb/sec Before + tc accept: 1418 1418 1418 1419 1419 1418 Mb/sec After + tc accept: 1419 1424 1418 1419 1422 1420 Mb/sec Before + tc drop: 1620 1619 1619 1619 1620 1620 Mb/sec After + tc drop: 1616 1624 1625 1624 1622 1619 Mb/sec When netfilter egress classifying is enabled on at least one interface, a minimal performance penalty is incurred for every egress packet, even if the interface it's transmitted over doesn't have any netfilter egress rules configured. That is caused by checking dev->nf_hooks_egress against NULL. Measurements were performed on a Core i7-3615QM.

Turn on this toggle from the ifb driver, the only existing client of these bits in the tree.
