2013-08-09netprio_cgroup: pass around @css instead of @cgroup and kill struct ↵Tejun Heo1-28/+28
cgroup_netprio_state cgroup controller API will be converted to primarily use struct cgroup_subsys_state instead of struct cgroup. In preparation, make the internal functions of netprio_cgroup pass around @css instead of @cgrp. While at it, kill struct cgroup_netprio_state which only contained struct cgroup_subsys_state without serving any purpose. All functions are converted to deal with @css directly. This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Acked-by: David S.

The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors - cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward. The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even indicate it's somehow related to cgroup. We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename them so that they're less awkward. Most per-controller usages of the accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache. Rename cgroup_subsys_state() to cgroup_css() and task_subsys_state() to task_css(). This patch is pure rename. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>

2013-08-03fib_rules: fix suppressor names and default valuesStefan Tomanek1-4/+11
This change brings the suppressor attribute names into line; it also changes the data types to provide a more consistent interface. While -1 indicates that the suppressor is not enabled, values >= 0 for suppress_prefixlen or suppress_ifgroup reject routing decisions violating the constraint. This changes the previously presented behaviour of suppress_prefixlen, where a prefix length _less_ than the attribute value was rejected. After this change, a prefix length less than *or* equal to the value is considered a violation of the rule constraint. It also changes the default values for default and newly added rules (disabling any suppression for those). Signed-off-by: Stefan Tomanek <stefan.tomanek@wertarbyte.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-08-03net: check net.core.somaxconn sysctl valuesRoman Gushchin1-1/+5
It's possible to assign an invalid value to the net.core.somaxconn sysctl variable, because there is no checks at all. The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen() shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX). Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless. before: $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256 net.core.somaxconn = 256 $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536 net.core.somaxconn = 65536 $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100 net.core.somaxconn = -100 after: $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=256 net.core.somaxconn = 256 $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=65536 error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn" $ sysctl -w net.core.somaxconn=-100 error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.core.somaxconn" Based on a prior patch from Changli Gao.

2013-08-01fib_rules: add .suppress operationStefan Tomanek1-0/+8
This change adds a new operation to the fib_rules_ops struct; it allows the suppression of routing decisions if certain criteria are not met by its results. The first implemented constraint is a minimum prefix length added to the structures of routing rules. If a rule is added with a minimum prefix length >0, only routes meeting this threshold will be considered. Any other (more general) routing table entries will be ignored. When configuring a system with multiple network uplinks and default routes, it is often convinient to reference the main routing table multiple times - but omitting the default route. Using this patch and a modified "ip" utility, this can be achieved by using the following command sequence: $ ip route add table secuplink default via 10.42.23.1 $ ip rule add pref 100 table main prefixlength 1 $ ip rule add pref 150 fwmark 0xA table secuplink With this setup, packets marked 0xA will be processed by the additional routing table "secuplink", but only if no suitable route in the main routing table can be found. By using a minimal prefixlength of 1, the default route (/0) of the table "main" is hidden to packets processed by rule 100; packets traveling to destinations with more specific routing entries are processed as usual.

2013-08-01netem: Introduce skb_orphan_partial() helperEric Dumazet1-0/+19
Commit 547669d483e578 ("tcp: xps: fix reordering issues") added unexpected reorders in case netem is used in a MQ setup for high performance test bed. ETH=eth0 tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq for i in `seq 1 32` do tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$i netem delay 100ms done As all tcp packets are orphaned by netem, TCP stack believes it can set skb->ooo_okay on all packets. In order to allow producers to send more packets, we want to keep sk_wmem_alloc from reaching sk_sndbuf limit. We can do that by accounting one byte per skb in netem queues, so that TCP stack is not fooled too much.

2013-07-19vlan: mask vlan prio bitsEric Dumazet1-2/+9
In commit 48cc32d38a52d0b68f91a171a8d00531edc6a46e ("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols") Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this particular id. But we also have a problem if prio bits are set. Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device, because skb->vlan_tci is set. Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000) being inserted in the middle of IPv6 source address : 16:48:00.780413 IP6 2001:16d8:8100:4000:ee1c:0:9d9:bc87 > 9f94:4d95:2001:67c:29f4::: ICMP6, unknown icmp6 type (0), length 64 0x0000: 0000 0029 8000 c7c3 7103 0001 a0ae e651 0x0010: 0000 0000 ccce 0b00 0000 0000 1011 1213 0x0020: 1415 1617 1819 1a1b 1c1d 1e1f 2021 2223 0x0030: 2425 2627 2829 2a2b 2c2d 2e2f 3031 3233 It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now.

2013-07-15net: delete __cpuinit usage from all net filesPaul Gortmaker1-2/+2
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the net/* uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files.

2013-07-11gso: Update tunnel segmentation to support Tx checksum offloadAlexander Duyck1-8/+6
This change makes it so that the GRE and VXLAN tunnels can make use of Tx checksum offload support provided by some drivers via the hw_enc_features. Without this fix enabling GSO means sacrificing Tx checksum offload and this actually leads to a performance regression as shown below: Utilization Send Throughput local GSO 10^6bits/s % S state 6276.51 8.39 enabled 7123.52 8.42 disabled To resolve this it was necessary to address two items. First netif_skb_features needed to be updated so that it would correctly handle the Trans Ether Bridging protocol without impacting the need to check for Q-in-Q tagging. To do this it was necessary to update harmonize_features so that it used skb_network_protocol instead of just using the outer protocol. Second it was necessary to update the GRE and UDP tunnel segmentation offloads so that they would reset the encapsulation bit and inner header offsets after the offload was complete. As a result of this change I have seen the following results on a interface with Tx checksum enabled for encapsulated frames: Utilization Send Throughput local GSO 10^6bits/s % S state 7123.52 8.42 disabled 8321.75 5.43 enabled v2: Instead of replacing refrence to skb->protocol with skb_network_protocol just replace the protocol reference in harmonize_features to allow for double VLAN tag checks.

The dev_forward_skb() assignment of pkt_type should be done after the call to eth_type_trans(). ip-encapsulated packets can be handled by localhost. But skb->pkt_type can be PACKET_OTHERHOST when packet comes via veth into ip tunnel device. In that case, the packet is dropped by ip_rcv().

2013-07-02ethtool: make .get_dump_data() harder to misuse by driversMichal Schmidt1-1/+20
As the patch "bnx2x: remove zeroing of dump data buffer" showed, it is too easy implement .get_dump_data incorrectly in a driver. Let's make sure drivers cannot get confused by userspace requesting a too big dump. Also WARN if the driver sets dump->len to something weird and make sure the length reported to userspace is the actual length of data copied to userspace.

There is a race in neighbour code, because neigh_destroy() uses skb_queue_purge(&neigh->arp_queue) without holding neighbour lock, while other parts of the code assume neighbour rwlock is what protects arp_queue Convert all skb_queue_purge() calls to the __skb_queue_purge() variant Use __skb_queue_head_init() instead of skb_queue_head_init() to make clear we do not use arp_queue.lock And hold neigh->lock in neigh_destroy() to close the race.

2013-06-27net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.Nicolas Schichan3-30/+40
When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the devnet_rename_seq sequence. This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name()) and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt. The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying the access to give the writer process a chance to finish. The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the reader process in the contended case, but this is better than deadlocking the system.
