geneve, vxlan: Don't set exceptions if skb->len < mtu

2018-10-18T04:51:13+00:00

We shouldn't abuse exceptions: if the destination MTU is already higher than what we're transmitting, no exception should be created.

xfrm: Remove xfrmi interface ID from flowi

2018-07-20T08:14:41+00:00

In order to remove performance impact of having the extra u32 in every single flowi, this change removes the flowi_xfrm struct, prefering to take the if_id as a method parameter where needed. In the inbound direction, if_id is only needed during the __xfrm_check_policy() function, and the if_id can be determined at that point based on the skb. As such, xfrmi_decode_session() is only called with the skb in __xfrm_check_policy(). In the outbound direction, the only place where if_id is needed is the xfrm_lookup() call in xfrmi_xmit2(). With this change, the if_id is directly passed into the xfrm_lookup_with_ifid() call. All existing callers can still call xfrm_lookup(), which uses a default if_id of 0. This change does not change any behavior of XFRMIs except for improving overall system performance via flowi size reduction.

net: don't call update_pmtu unconditionally

2018-01-25T21:27:34+00:00

Some dst_ops (e.g. md_dst_ops)) doesn't set this handler. It may result to: "BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)" Let's add a helper to check if update_pmtu is available before calling it.

net: Rearrange dst_entry layout to avoid useless padding.

2017-11-30T14:54:27+00:00

We have padding to try and align the refcount on a separate cache line. But after several simplifications the padding has increased substantially. So now it's easy to change the layout to get rid of the padding entirely. We group the write-heavy __refcnt and __use with less often used items such as the rcu_head and the error code.

xfrm: Move dst->path into struct xfrm_dst

2017-11-30T14:54:26+00:00

The first member of an IPSEC route bundle chain sets it's dst->path to the underlying ipv4/ipv6 route that carries the bundle. Stated another way, if one were to follow the xfrm_dst->child chain of the bundle, the final non-NULL pointer would be the path and point to either an ipv4 or an ipv6 route. This is largely used to make sure that PMTU events propagate down to the correct ipv4 or ipv6 route. When we don't have the top of an IPSEC bundle 'dst->path == dst'. Move it down into xfrm_dst and key off of dst->xfrm. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet

ipv6: Move dst->from into struct rt6_info.

2017-11-30T14:54:26+00:00

The dst->from value is only used by ipv6 routes to track where a route "came from". Any time we clone or copy a core ipv6 route in the ipv6 routing tables, we have the copy/clone's ->from point to the base route. This is used to handle route expiration properly. Only ipv6 uses this mechanism, and only ipv6 code references it. So it is safe to move it into rt6_info. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet

xfrm: Move child route linkage into xfrm_dst.

2017-11-30T14:54:26+00:00

XFRM bundle child chains look like this: xdst1 --> xdst2 --> xdst3 --> path_dst All of xdstN are xfrm_dst objects and xdst->u.dst.xfrm is non-NULL. The final child pointer in the chain, here called 'path_dst', is some other kind of route such as an ipv4 or ipv6 one. The xfrm output path pops routes, one at a time, via the child pointer, until we hit one which has a dst->xfrm pointer which is NULL. We can easily preserve the above mechanisms with child sitting only in the xfrm_dst structure. All children in the chain before we break out of the xfrm_output() loop have dst->xfrm non-NULL and are therefore xfrm_dst objects. Since we break out of the loop when we find dst->xfrm NULL, we will not try to dereference 'dst' as if it were an xfrm_dst. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
