ipv4: convert fib_num_tclassid_users to atomic_t

2021-12-08T08:01:12+00:00

commit 213f5f8f31f10aa1e83187ae20fb7fa4e626b724 upstream. Before commit faa041a40b9f ("ipv4: Create cleanup helper for fib_nh") changes to net->ipv4.fib_num_tclassid_users were protected by RTNL. After the change, this is no longer the case, as free_fib_info_rcu() runs after rcu grace period, without rtnl being held.

net: xfrm: Localize sequence counter per network namespace

2021-04-14T06:24:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit e88add19f68191448427a6e4eb059664650a837f ] A sequence counter write section must be serialized or its internal state can get corrupted. The "xfrm_state_hash_generation" seqcount is global, but its write serialization lock (net->xfrm.xfrm_state_lock) is instantiated per network namespace. The write protection is thus insufficient. To provide full protection, localize the sequence counter per network namespace instead. This should be safe as both the seqcount read and write sections access data exclusively within the network namespace. It also lays the foundation for transforming "xfrm_state_hash_generation" data type from seqcount_t to seqcount_LOCKNAME_t in further commits.

netfilter: nf_tables: autoload modules from the abort path

2020-01-29T15:45:33+00:00

commit eb014de4fd418de1a277913cba244e47274fe392 upstream. This patch introduces a list of pending module requests. This new module list is composed of nft_module_request objects that contain the module name and one status field that tells if the module has been already loaded (the 'done' field). In the first pass, from the preparation phase, the netlink command finds that a module is missing on this list. Then, a module request is allocated and added to this list and nft_request_module() returns -EAGAIN. This triggers the abort path with the autoload parameter set on from nfnetlink, request_module() is called and the module request enters the 'done' state. Since the mutex is released when loading modules from the abort phase, the module list is zapped so this is iteration occurs over a local list. Therefore, the request_module() calls happen when object lists are in consistent state (after fulling aborting the transaction) and the commit list is empty. On the second pass, the netlink command will find that it already tried to load the module, so it does not request it again and nft_request_module() returns 0. Then, there is a look up to find the object that the command was missing. If the module was successfully loaded, the command proceeds normally since it finds the missing object in place, otherwise -ENOENT is reported to userspace. This patch also updates nfnetlink to include the reason to enter the abort phase, which is required for this new autoload module rationale.

can: netns: remove "can_" prefix from members struct netns_can

2019-09-04T11:29:14+00:00

This patch improves the code reability by removing the redundant "can_" prefix from the members of struct netns_can (as the struct netns_can itself is the member "can" of the struct net.) The conversion is done with: sed -i \ -e "s/struct can_dev_rcv_lists \*can_rx_alldev_list;/struct can_dev_rcv_lists *rx_alldev_list;/" \ -e "s/spinlock_t can_rcvlists_lock;/spinlock_t rcvlists_lock;/" \ -e "s/struct timer_list can_stattimer;/struct timer_list stattimer; /" \ -e "s/can\.can_rx_alldev_list/can.rx_alldev_list/g" \ -e "s/can\.can_rcvlists_lock/can.rcvlists_lock/g" \ -e "s/can\.can_stattimer/can.stattimer/g" \ include/net/netns/can.h \ net/can/*.[ch] Signed-off-by: Oleksij Rempel Acked-by: Oliver Hartkopp Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

can: netns: give members of struct netns_can holding the statistics a sensible name

2019-09-04T11:29:13+00:00

This patch gives the members of the struct netns_can that are holding the statistics a sensible name, by renaming struct netns_can::can_stats into struct netns_can::pkg_stats and struct netns_can::can_pstats into struct netns_can::rcv_lists_stats. The conversion is done with: sed -i \ -e "s:\(struct[^*]*\*\)can_stats;.*:\1pkg_stats;:" \ -e "s:\(struct[^*]*\*\)can_pstats;.*:\1rcv_lists_stats;:" \ -e "s/can\.can_stats/can.pkg_stats/g" \ -e "s/can\.can_pstats/can.rcv_lists_stats/g" \ net/can/*.[ch] \ include/net/netns/can.h Signed-off-by: Oleksij Rempel Acked-by: Oliver Hartkopp Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde

This patch renames both "struct s_stats" and "struct s_pstats", to "struct can_pkg_stats" and "struct can_rcv_lists_stats" to better reflect their meaning and improve code readability.

sctp: make ecn flag per netns and endpoint

2019-08-28T03:54:14+00:00

This patch is to add ecn flag for both netns_sctp and sctp_endpoint, net->sctp.ecn_enable is set 1 by default, and ep->ecn_enable will be initialized with net->sctp.ecn_enable. asoc->peer.ecn_capable will be set during negotiation only when ep->ecn_enable is set on both sides.

tcp: add new tcp_mtu_probe_floor sysctl

2019-08-09T20:03:30+00:00

The current implementation of TCP MTU probing can considerably underestimate the MTU on lossy connections allowing the MSS to get down to 48. We have found that in almost all of these cases on our networks these paths can handle much larger MTUs meaning the connections are being artificially limited. Even though TCP MTU probing can raise the MSS back up we have seen this not to be the case causing connections to be "stuck" with an MSS of 48 when heavy loss is present. Prior to pushing out this change we could not keep TCP MTU probing enabled b/c of the above reasons. Now with a reasonble floor set we've had it enabled for the past 6 months. The new sysctl will still default to TCP_MIN_SND_MSS (48), but gives administrators the ability to control the floor of MSS probing.

tcp: add tcp_min_snd_mss sysctl

2019-06-16T01:47:31+00:00

Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or SYN/ACK messages. This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu overhead. Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40 bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload. In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value to a saner value. We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility reasons. Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value in commit c39508d6f118 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.") from 64 to 88. We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.
