2012-09-28net: use bigger pages in __netdev_alloc_fragEric Dumazet1-16/+30
We currently use percpu order-0 pages in __netdev_alloc_frag to deliver fragments used by __netdev_alloc_skb() Depending on NIC driver and arch being 32 or 64 bit, it allows a page to be split in several fragments (between 1 and 8), assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096 Switching to bigger pages (32768 bytes for PAGE_SIZE=4096 case) allows : - Better filling of space (the ending hole overhead is less an issue) - Less calls to page allocator or accesses to page->_count - Could allow struct skb_shared_info futures changes without major performance impact. This patch implements a transparent fallback to smaller pages in case of memory pressure. It also uses a standard "struct page_frag" instead of a custom one.

2012-09-25net: use a per task frag allocatorEric Dumazet2-30/+56
We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg() operations. This page is used to build fragments for skbs. Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent) But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit page allocator more than wanted. This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages, if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure. (up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86) This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device, but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled. Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments, but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536 Successfully tested on various ethernet devices.

2012-09-21net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksumEd Cashin1-1/+2
A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA over Ethernet (AoE). Below is a reference to the commit that introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the ethernet protocol of an sk buff. commit f01a5236bd4b140198fbcc550f085e8361fd73fa Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Date: Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000 net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features(). The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a protocol that does not require checksumming. Calling it for a protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate. The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE packets. Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance and increased memory pressure, as reported here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset recently included in the mm tree: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140 The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the newest kernels.

2012-09-14cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups ↵Tejun Heo1-1/+11
are nested for them Currently, cgroup hierarchy support is a mess. cpu related subsystems behave correctly - configuration, accounting and control on a parent properly cover its children. blkio and freezer completely ignore hierarchy and treat all cgroups as if they're directly under the root cgroup. Others show yet different behaviors. These differing interpretations of cgroup hierarchy make using cgroup confusing and it impossible to co-mount controllers into the same hierarchy and obtain sane behavior. Eventually, we want full hierarchy support from all subsystems and probably a unified hierarchy. Users using separate hierarchies expecting completely different behaviors depending on the mounted subsystem is deterimental to making any progress on this front. This patch adds cgroup_subsys.broken_hierarchy and sets it to %true for controllers which are lacking in hierarchy support. The goal of this patch is two-fold. * Move users away from using hierarchy on currently non-hierarchical subsystems, so that implementing proper hierarchy support on those doesn't surprise them. * Keep track of which controllers are broken how and nudge the subsystems to implement proper hierarchy support. For now, start with a single warning message. We can whine louder later on. v2: Fixed a typo spotted by Michal. Warning message updated. v3: Updated memcg part so that it doesn't generate warning in the cases where .use_hierarchy=false doesn't make the behavior different from root.use_hierarchy=true. Fixed a typo spotted by Glauber. v4: Check ->broken_hierarchy after cgroup creation is complete so that ->create() can affect the result per Michal.

2012-09-14cgroup: Assign subsystem IDs during compile timeDaniel Wagner2-22/+0
WARNING: With this change it is impossible to load external built controllers anymore. In case where CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP=m and CONFIG_NET_CLS_CGROUP=m is set, corresponding subsys_id should also be a constant. Up to now, net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id would be of the type int and the value would be assigned during runtime. By switching the macro definition IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED from IS_BUILTIN to IS_ENABLED, all *_subsys_id will have constant value. That means we need to remove all the code which assumes a value can be assigned to net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id. A close look is necessary on the RCU part which was introduces by following patch: commit f845172531fb7410c7fb7780b1a6e51ee6df7d52 Author: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010 Committer: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010 cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sock Tis code was added to init_cgroup_cls() /* We can't use rcu_assign_pointer because this is an int. */ smp_wmb(); net_cls_subsys_id = net_cls_subsys.subsys_id; respectively to exit_cgroup_cls() net_cls_subsys_id = -1; synchronize_rcu(); and in module version of task_cls_classid() rcu_read_lock(); id = rcu_dereference(net_cls_subsys_id); if (id >= 0) classid = container_of(task_subsys_state(p, id), struct cgroup_cls_state, css)->classid; rcu_read_unlock(); Without an explicit explaination why the RCU part is needed. (The rcu_deference was fixed by exchanging it to rcu_derefence_index_check() in a later commit, but that is a minor detail.) So here is my pondering why it was introduced and why it safe to remove it now. Note that this code was copied over to net_prio the reasoning holds for that subsystem too. The idea behind the RCU use for net_cls_subsys_id is to make sure we get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state(). task_subsys_state() is just blindly accessing the subsys array and returning the pointer. Obviously, passing in -1 as id into task_subsys_state() returns an invalid value (out of lower bound). So this code makes sure that only after module is loaded and the subsystem registered, the id is assigned. Before unregistering the module all old readers must have left the critical section. This is done by assigning -1 to the id and issuing a synchronized_rcu(). Any new readers wont call task_subsys_state() anymore and therefore it is safe to unregister the subsystem. The new code relies on the same trick, but it looks at the subsys pointer return by task_subsys_state() (remember the id is constant and therefore we allways have a valid index into the subsys array). No precautions need to be taken during module loading module. Eventually, all CPUs will get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state() because rebind_subsystem() which is called after the module init() function will assigned subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] the newly loaded module subsystem pointer. When the subsystem is about to be removed, rebind_subsystem() will called before the module exit() function. In this case, rebind_subsys() will assign subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] a NULL pointer and then it calls synchronize_rcu(). All old readers have left by then the critical section. Any new reader wont access the subsystem anymore. At this point we are safe to unregister the subsystem. No synchronize_rcu() call is needed.

It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.

2012-09-09net: small bug on rxhash calculationChema Gonzalez1-5/+6
In the current rxhash calculation function, while the sorting of the ports/addrs is coherent (you get the same rxhash for packets sharing the same 4-tuple, in both directions), ports and addrs are sorted independently. This implies packets from a connection between the same addresses but crossed ports hash to the same rxhash. For example, traffic between A=S:l and B=L:s is hashed (in both directions) from {L, S, {s, l}}. The same rxhash is obtained for packets between C=S:s and D=L:l. This patch ensures that you either swap both addrs and ports, or you swap none. Traffic between A and B, and traffic between C and D, get their rxhash from different sources ({L, S, {l, s}} for A<->B, and {L, S, {s, l}} for C<->D) The patch is co-written with Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Chema Gonzalez <chema@google.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-07scm: Don't use struct ucred in NETLINK_CB and struct scm_cookie.Eric W. Biederman1-6/+11
Passing uids and gids on NETLINK_CB from a process in one user namespace to a process in another user namespace can result in the wrong uid or gid being presented to userspace. Avoid that problem by passing kuids and kgids instead. - define struct scm_creds for use in scm_cookie and netlink_skb_parms that holds uid and gid information in kuid_t and kgid_t. - Modify scm_set_cred to fill out scm_creds by heand instead of using cred_to_ucred to fill out struct ucred. This conversion ensures userspace does not get incorrect uid or gid values to look at. - Modify scm_recv to convert from struct scm_creds to struct ucred before copying credential values to userspace. - Modify __scm_send to populate struct scm_creds on in the scm_cookie, instead of just copying struct ucred from userspace. - Modify netlink_sendmsg to copy scm_creds instead of struct ucred into the NETLINK_CB.

2012-09-01tcp: TCP Fast Open Server - support TFO listenersJerry Chu1-0/+95
This patch builds on top of the previous patch to add the support for TFO listeners. This includes - 1. allocating, properly initializing, and managing the per listener fastopen_queue structure when TFO is enabled 2. changes to the inet_csk_accept code to support TFO. E.g., the request_sock can no longer be freed upon accept(), not until 3WHS finishes 3. allowing a TCP_SYN_RECV socket to properly poll() and sendmsg() if it's a TFO socket 4. properly closing a TFO listener, and a TFO socket before 3WHS finishes 5. supporting TCP_FASTOPEN socket option 6. modifying tcp_check_req() to use to check a TFO socket as well as request_sock 7. supporting TCP's TFO cookie option 8. adding a new SYN-ACK retransmit handler to use the timer directly off the TFO socket rather than the listener socket. Note that TFO server side will not retransmit anything other than SYN-ACK until the 3WHS is completed. The patch also contains an important function "reqsk_fastopen_remove()" to manage the somewhat complex relation between a listener, its request_sock, and the corresponding child socket.

2012-09-01net: fix documentation of skb_needs_linearize().Rami Rosen1-3/+1
skb_needs_linearize() does not check highmem DMA as it does not call illegal_highdma() anymore, so there is no need to mention highmem DMA here. (Indeed, ~NETIF_F_SG flag, which is checked in skb_needs_linearize(), can be set when illegal_highdma() returns true, and we are assured that illegal_highdma() is invoked prior to skb_needs_linearize() as skb_needs_linearize() is a static method called only once. But ~NETIF_F_SG can be set not only there in this same invocation path. It can also be set when can_checksum_protocol() returns false). see commit 02932ce9e2c136e6fab2571c8e0dd69ae8ec9853, Convert skb_need_linearize() to use precomputed features.

2012-08-30net: dev: fix the incorrect hold of net namespace's lo deviceGao feng1-0/+2
When moving a net device from one net namespace to another net namespace,dev_change_net_namespace calls NETDEV_DOWN event,so the original net namespace's dst entries which beloned to this net device will be put into dst_garbage list. then dev_change_net_namespace will set this net device's net to the new net namespace. If we unregister this net device's driver, this will trigger the NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event, dst_ifdown will be called, and get this net device's dst entries from dst_garbage list, put these entries' dev to the new net namespace's lo device. It's not what we want,actually we need these dst entries hold the original net namespace's lo device,this incorrect device holding will trigger emg message like below. unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1 so we should call NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event in dev_change_net_namespace too,in order to make sure dst entries already in the dst_garbage list, we need rcu_barrier before we call NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event.

2012-08-24net: Set device operstate at registration timeBen Hutchings2-0/+10
The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN. For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a unregistered device, and commit b473001 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN. The same issue exists with the dormant state. The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of the device, is: rtnl_lock(); rc = register_netdevice(dev); if (rc) goto out_unlock; netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */ rtnl_unlock(); but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of linkwatch. Commit 22604c8 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was reverted as it could lead to deadlock. This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time only. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
