2020-02-05net: Fix skb->csum update in inet_proto_csum_replace16().Praveen Chaudhary1-3/+17
[ Upstream commit 189c9b1e94539b11c80636bc13e9cf47529e7bba ] skb->csum is updated incorrectly, when manipulation for NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC\DST is done on IPV6 packet. Fix: There is no need to update skb->csum in inet_proto_csum_replace16(), because update in two fields a.) IPv6 src/dst address and b.) L4 header checksum cancels each other for skb->csum calculation. Whereas inet_proto_csum_replace4 function needs to update skb->csum, because update in 3 fields a.) IPv4 src/dst address, b.) IPv4 Header checksum and c.) L4 header checksum results in same diff as L4 Header checksum for skb->csum calculation.

Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro. All messages are still ratelimited. Some KERN_<LEVEL> uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG. This may have some negative impact on messages that were emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled. Even so, these messages are now _not_ emitted by default. This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl "/proc/sys/net/core/warnings". For backward compatibility, the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function. The extern declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c Miscellanea: o Update the sysctl documentation o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt o Coalesce format fragments o Realign arguments Signed-off-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-09-27net: optimise inet_proto_csum_replace4()LEROY Christophe1-7/+5
csum_partial() is a generic function which is not optimised for small fixed length calculations, and its use requires to store "from" and "to" values in memory while we already have them available in registers. This also has impact, especially on RISC processors. In the same spirit as the change done by Eric Dumazet on csum_replace2(), this patch rewrites inet_proto_csum_replace4() taking into account RFC1624. I spotted during a NATted tcp transfert that csum_partial() is one of top 5 consuming functions (around 8%), and the second user of csum_partial() is inet_proto_csum_replace4().

2014-05-14net: avoid dependency of net_get_random_once on nop patchingHannes Frederic Sowa1-4/+4
net_get_random_once depends on the static keys infrastructure to patch up the branch to the slow path during boot. This was realized by abusing the static keys api and defining a new initializer to not enable the call site while still indicating that the branch point should get patched up. This was needed to have the fast path considered likely by gcc. The static key initialization during boot up normally walks through all the registered keys and either patches in ideal nops or enables the jump site but omitted that step on x86 if ideal nops where already placed at static_key branch points. Thus net_get_random_once branches not always became active. This patch switches net_get_random_once to the ordinary static_key api and thus places the kernel fast path in the - by gcc considered - unlikely path. Microbenchmarks on Intel and AMD x86-64 showed that the unlikely path actually beats the likely path in terms of cycle cost and that different nop patterns did not make much difference, thus this switch should not be noticeable.

I don't think this is a good idea anymore and thus this patch makes net_get_random_once irq safe. Now someone using net_get_random_once does not need to care from where it is called. Cc: David S.

2013-10-20net: introduce new macro net_get_random_onceHannes Frederic Sowa1-0/+48
net_get_random_once is a new macro which handles the initialization of secret keys. It is possible to call it in the fast path. Only the initialization depends on the spinlock and is rather slow. Otherwise it should get used just before the key is used to delay the entropy extration as late as possible to get better randomness. It returns true if the key got initialized. The usage of static_keys for net_get_random_once is a bit uncommon so it needs some further explanation why this actually works: === In the simple non-HAVE_JUMP_LABEL case we actually have === no constrains to use static_key_(true|false) on keys initialized with STATIC_KEY_INIT_(FALSE|TRUE). So this path just expands in favor of the likely case that the initialization is already done. The key is initialized like this: ___done_key = { .enabled = ATOMIC_INIT(0) } The check if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \ expands into (pseudo code) if (!likely(___done_key > 0)) , so we take the fast path as soon as ___done_key is increased from the helper function. === If HAVE_JUMP_LABELs are available this depends === on patching of jumps into the prepared NOPs, which is done in jump_label_init at boot-up time (from start_kernel). It is forbidden and dangerous to use net_get_random_once in functions which are called before that! At compilation time NOPs are generated at the call sites of net_get_random_once. E.g. net/ipv6/inet6_hashtable.c:inet6_ehashfn (we need to call net_get_random_once two times in inet6_ehashfn, so two NOPs): 71: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) 76: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1) Both will be patched to the actual jumps to the end of the function to call __net_get_random_once at boot time as explained above. arch_static_branch is optimized and inlined for false as return value and actually also returns false in case the NOP is placed in the instruction stream. So in the fast case we get a "return false". But because we initialize ___done_key with (enabled != (entries & 1)) this call-site will get patched up at boot thus returning true. The final check looks like this: if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \ ___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \ expands to if (!!static_key_false(&___done_key)) \ ___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \ So we get true at boot time and as soon as static_key_slow_inc is called on the key it will invert the logic and return false for the fast path. static_key_slow_inc will change the branch because it got initialized with .enabled == 0. After static_key_slow_inc is called on the key the branch is replaced with a nop again. === Misc: === The helper defers the increment into a workqueue so we don't have problems calling this code from atomic sections. A seperate boolean (___done) guards the case where we enter net_get_random_once again before the increment happend.

However, when the textual representation is of in the form ip:port, e.g. 192.168.1.1:5060, and 'delim' is set to -1, the function bails out with an error when reading the colon. It makes sense to allow the colon as a delimiting character without explicitly having to set it through the 'delim' variable as there can be no ambiguity in the point where the ip address is completely parsed. This function is indeed called from nf_conntrack_sip.c in this way to parse textual ip:port combinations which fails due to the reason stated above.

Make net_random() more widely available by calling it random32 akpm: hopefully this will permit the removal of carta_random32. That needs confirmation from Stephane - this code looks somewhat more computationally expensive, and has a different (ie: callee-stateful) interface.

2006-04-11[PATCH] for_each_possible_cpu: network codesKAMEZAWA Hiroyuki1-2/+2
for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs. We've had mistakes in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been iterating across only online or present CPUs. This is inefficient and possibly buggy. We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the future. This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu under /net Signed-off-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Acked-by: "David S.

2006-02-05[PATCH] percpu data: only iterate over possible CPUsEric Dumazet1-2/+2
percpu_data blindly allocates bootmem memory to store NR_CPUS instances of cpudata, instead of allocating memory only for possible cpus. As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS loops to use for_each_cpu(). (The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it alone and is presently only allocating memory for present CPUs, so it's currently corrupting memory).
