net: Don't include filter.h from net/sock.h

2021-12-29T16:48:14+00:00

sock.h is pretty heavily used (5k objects rebuilt on x86 after it's touched). We can drop the include of filter.h from it and add a forward declaration of struct sk_filter instead. This decreases the number of rebuilt objects when bpf.h is touched from ~5k to ~1k. There's a lot of missing includes this was masking. Primarily in networking tho, this time.

lsm,selinux: pass flowi_common instead of flowi to the LSM hooks

2020-11-23T23:36:21+00:00

As pointed out by Herbert in a recent related patch, the LSM hooks do not have the necessary address family information to use the flowi struct safely. As none of the LSMs currently use any of the protocol specific flowi information, replace the flowi pointers with pointers to the address family independent flowi_common struct.

ipv4: use dst hint for ipv4 list receive

2019-11-21T22:45:55+00:00

This is alike the previous change, with some additional ipv4 specific quirk. Even when using the route hint we still have to do perform additional per packet checks about source address validity: a new helper is added to wrap them. Hints are explicitly disabled if the destination is a local broadcast, that keeps the code simple and local broadcast are a slower path anyway. UDP flood performances vs recvmmsg() receiver: vanilla patched delta Kpps Kpps % 1683 1871 +11 In the worst case scenario - each packet has a different destination address - the performance delta is within noise range. v3 -> v4: - re-enable hints for forward v2 -> v3: - really fix build (sic) and hint usage check - use fib4_has_custom_rules() helpers (David A.) - add ip_extract_route_hint() helper (Edward C.) - use prev skb as hint instead of copying data (Willem) v1 -> v2: - fix build issue with !CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Reviewed-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv4: Revert removal of rt_uses_gateway

2019-09-21T01:23:33+00:00

Julian noted that rt_uses_gateway has a more subtle use than 'is gateway set': https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/alpine.LFD.2.21.1909151104060.2546@ja.home.ssi.bg/ Revert that part of the commit referenced in the Fixes tag. Currently, there are no u8 holes in 'struct rtable'. There is a 4-byte hole in the second cacheline which contains the gateway declaration. So move rt_gw_family down to the gateway declarations since they are always used together, and then re-use that u8 for rt_uses_gateway. End result is that rtable size is unchanged.

net: route dump netlink NLM_F_MULTI flag missing

2019-08-24T23:49:48+00:00

An excerpt from netlink(7) man page, In multipart messages (multiple nlmsghdr headers with associated payload in one byte stream) the first and all following headers have the NLM_F_MULTI flag set, except for the last header which has the type NLMSG_DONE. but, after (ee28906) there is a missing NLM_F_MULTI flag in the middle of a FIB dump. The result is user space applications following above man page excerpt may get confused and may stop parsing msg believing something went wrong. In the golang netlink lib [0] the library logic stops parsing believing the message is not a multipart message. Found this running Cilium[1] against net-next while adding a feature to auto-detect routes. I noticed with multiple route tables we no longer could detect the default routes on net tree kernels because the library logic was not returning them. Fix this by handling the fib_dump_info_fnhe() case the same way the fib_dump_info() handles it by passing the flags argument through the call chain and adding a flags argument to rt_fill_info(). Tested with Cilium stack and auto-detection of routes works again. Also annotated libs to dump netlink msgs and inspected NLM_F_MULTI and NLMSG_DONE flags look correct after this. Note: In inet_rtm_getroute() pass rt_fill_info() '0' for flags the same as is done for fib_dump_info() so this looks correct to me.

The new route handling in ip_mc_finish_output() from 'net' overlapped with the new support for returning congestion notifications from BPF programs. In order to handle this I had to take the dev_loopback_xmit() calls out of the switch statement. The aquantia driver conflicts were simple overlapping changes. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: reset rt_iif for recirculated mcast/bcast out pkts

2019-06-26T19:40:10+00:00

Multicast or broadcast egress packets have rt_iif set to the oif. These packets might be recirculated back as input and lookup to the raw sockets may fail because they are bound to the incoming interface (skb_iif). If rt_iif is not zero, during the lookup, inet_iif() function returns rt_iif instead of skb_iif. Hence, the lookup fails. v2: Make it non vrf specific (David Ahern).
