2013-01-31net/mlx4_en: Fix transmit timeout when driver restarts portAmir Vadai
Under heavy CPU load, changing, ring size/mtu/etc. could result in transmit timeout, since stop-start port might take more than 10 seconds. Calling netif_detach_device to prevent tx queue transmit timeout. netif_detach_device() is not called under ndo_stop, because netif_carrier_off will prevent the timeout, and device should not be marked as not present, or else user won't be able to start it later on.

2013-01-31net/mlx4_core: Use firmware driven flow steering hash modeHadar Hen Zion
The Firmware dynamically changes flow steering hash configuration from covering L2 only to "full" L2/L3/L4 mode needed. The dynamic change allows the driver to set hard coded hash configuration which is changed by the firmware from L2 to L2/L3/L4 when attaching the first L3/L4 flow steering rule and back to L2 when there are no more such rules.

2013-01-31x86: bpf_jit_comp: add pkt_type supportEric Dumazet
Supporting access to skb->pkt_type is a bit tricky if we want to have a generic code, allowing pkt_type to be moved in struct sk_buff pkt_type is a bit field, so compiler cannot really help us to find its offset. Let's use a helper for this : It will throw a one time message if pkt_type no longer starts at a byte boundary or is no longer a 3bit field.

2013-01-30bond: have random dev address by default instead of zeroesJiri Pirko
Makes more sense to have randomly generated address by default than to have all zeroes. It also allows user to for example put the bond into bridge without need to have any slaves in it. Also note that this changes only behaviour of bonds with no slaves. Once the first slave device is enslaved, its address will be used (no change here). Also, fix dev_assign_type values on the way.

2013-01-29ipv6: add anti-spoofing checks for 6to4 and 6rdHannes Frederic Sowa
This patch adds anti-spoofing checks in sit.c as specified in RFC3964 section 5.2 for 6to4 and RFC5969 section 12 for 6rd. I left out the checks which could easily be implemented with netfilter. Specifically this patch adds following logic (based loosely on the pseudocode in RFC3964 section 5.2): if prefix (inner_src_v6) == rd6_prefix (2002::/16 is the default) and outer_src_v4 != embedded_ipv4 (inner_src_v6) drop if prefix (inner_dst_v6) == rd6_prefix (or 2002::/16 is the default) and outer_dst_v4 != embedded_ipv4 (inner_dst_v6) drop accept To accomplish the specified security checks proposed by above RFCs, it is still necessary to employ uRPF filters with netfilter. These new checks only kick in if the employed addresses are within the 2002::/16 or another range specified by the 6rd-prefix (which defaults to 2002::/16).

2013-01-29ip_gre: When TOS is inherited, use configured TOS value for non-IP packetsDavid Ward
A GRE tunnel can be configured so that outgoing tunnel packets inherit the value of the TOS field from the inner IP header. In doing so, when a non-IP packet is transmitted through the tunnel, the TOS field will always be set to 0. Instead, the user should be able to configure a different TOS value as the fallback to use for non-IP packets. This is helpful when the non-IP packets are all control packets and should be handled by routers outside the tunnel as having Internet Control precedence. One example of this is the NHRP packets that control a DMVPN-compatible mGRE tunnel; they are encapsulated directly by GRE and do not contain an inner IP header. Under the existing behavior, the IFLA_GRE_TOS parameter must be set to '1' for the TOS value to be inherited. Now, only the least significant bit of this parameter must be set to '1', and when a non-IP packet is sent through the tunnel, the upper 6 bits of this same parameter will be copied into the TOS field. (The ECN bits get masked off as before.) This behavior is backwards-compatible with existing configurations and iproute2 versions.

2013-01-29ipv4: introduce address lifetimeJiri Pirko
There are some usecase when lifetime of ipv4 addresses might be helpful. For example: 1) initramfs networkmanager uses a DHCP daemon to learn network configuration parameters 2) initramfs networkmanager addresses, routes and DNS configuration 3) initramfs networkmanager is requested to stop 4) initramfs networkmanager stops all daemons including dhclient 5) there are addresses and routes configured but no daemon running. If the system doesn't start networkmanager for some reason, addresses and routes will be used forever, which violates RFC 2131. This patch is essentially a backport of ivp6 address lifetime mechanism for ipv4 addresses. Current "ip" tool supports this without any patch (since it does not distinguish between ipv4 and ipv6 addresses in this perspective. Also, this should be back-compatible with all current netlink users. Reported-by: Pavel Šimerda <psimerda@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: David S.

It is still a partly respin of my fragmentation optimization patches: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/250914 This is not the complete patchset, from the gmane link above. In this patchset, I primarily focus on adjusting cacheline for better SMP/NUMA performance. Once this patchset have been agreed upon, I will continue and respin the rest of my patches. This time around, I have created a frag DoS generator, via the tool trafgen (http://netsniff-ng.org/). To create a stable DoS scenario (no longer relying on frame dropping due to disabled flow-control). Two 10G interfaces are under-test, and uses Ethernet flow-control. A third interface is used for generating the DoS attack (this interface is also 10G, but it does not need to be, as 500Kpps DoS is enough).

But patch-06/LRU-lock corrects the situation again. Below is a testlab setup description, with links to the trafgen DoS packet config used. Testlab ======= Server setup ------------ The machine acting as a server: - 2x CPU (E5-2630) - Thus a NUMA arch/machine - 4x 10Gbit/s ports - NICs 2x Intel Dual port 82599 based (driver ixgbe) Setup: - Interfaces uses Ethernet flow control - Flush all iptables - Remove all iptables related module. - Kill irqbalance - Pin each 10G NIC port to a *single* CPU each Pinning can easily be done by command hacks:: for x in /proc/irq/*/eth8*/../smp_affinity_list ; do echo 1 > $x; done for x in /proc/irq/*/eth9*/../smp_affinity_list ; do echo 3 > $x; done for x in /proc/irq/*/eth31*/../smp_affinity_list; do echo 6 > $x; done for x in /proc/irq/*/eth32*/../smp_affinity_list; do echo 8 > $x; done Notice NUMA setting: The CPU to NIC tying is carefully choosen according to the NUMA node setup. Thus, NICs connected to a PCI-e slot that is connected to a physical CPU socket are tied together. Choosing only a single CPU per NIC (port) is just to ease provoking and debugging this performance issue. (In real setups, you can choose more CPU, just remember the NUMA node in the equation). Tools ----- Netperf is used, with option -T to ensure CPU binding. The netserver processes, are NAPI pinned:: numactl -m0 -c0 netserver numactl -m1 -c 1 netserver -p 1337 I now have a frag DoS generator, created via the tool: trafgen (see: http://netsniff-ng.org/) Trafgen packet config file: http://people.netfilter.org/hawk/frag_work/trafgen/frag_packet03_small_frag.txf Notice, I'm using features of trafgen, recently developed by Daniel Borkmann, thus you need the latest git tree to use my trafgen packet config. git://github.com/borkmann/netsniff-ng.git Command line: trafgen --dev eth51 --conf frag_packet03_small_frag.txf -V -k 100 --cpus 2 Tests types ----------- Test(20G64K) UDP-64K 2x 10Gbit/s with no DoS traffic: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ export SIZE=$((65507)); export TIME=$((20)); export LOG=/tmp/netperf.log ;\ netperf -p 1337 -H 192.168.31.2 -T7,7 -t UDP_STREAM -l $TIME -- -m $SIZE >> ${LOG}.31 &\ netperf -H 192.168.81.2 -T2,2 -t UDP_STREAM -l $TIME -- -m $SIZE >> ${LOG}.81 && \ wait $! && tail -n3 ${LOG}.* && \ tail -n3 ${LOG}.{31,81} | awk 'BEGIN{sum=0;} /212992 / {sum+=$4; print " +"$4} /==/ {print " file:"$2} END{print "sum:"sum" Mbit/s"}' Test(20G3F) UDP-3xfrags 2x 10Gbit/s with no DoS traffic: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ export SIZE=$((3*1472)); export TIME=$((20)); export LOG=/tmp/netperf.log ;\ netperf -p 1337 -H 192.168.31.2 -T7,7 -t UDP_STREAM -l $TIME -- -m $SIZE >> ${LOG}.31 &\ netperf -H 192.168.81.2 -T2,2 -t UDP_STREAM -l $TIME -- -m $SIZE >> ${LOG}.81 && \ wait $! && tail -n3 ${LOG}.* && \ tail -n3 ${LOG}.{31,81} | awk 'BEGIN{sum=0;} /212992 / {sum+=$4; print " +"$4} /==/ {print " file:"$2} END{print "sum:"sum" Mbit/s"}' Awk script for summming results: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ tail -n3 ${LOG}.{31,81} | awk 'BEGIN{sum=0;} /212992 / {sum+=$4; print " +"$4} /==/ {print " file:"$2} END{print "sum:"sum" Mbit/s"}' ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-29net: frag, move LRU list maintenance outside of rwlockJesper Dangaard Brouer
Updating the fragmentation queues LRU (Least-Recently-Used) list, required taking the hash writer lock. However, the LRU list isn't tied to the hash at all, so we can use a separate lock for it.

2013-01-29net: use lib/percpu_counter API for fragmentation mem accountingJesper Dangaard Brouer
Replace the per network namespace shared atomic "mem" accounting variable, in the fragmentation code, with a lib/percpu_counter. Getting percpu_counter to scale to the fragmentation code usage requires some tweaks. At first view, percpu_counter looks superfast, but it does not scale on multi-CPU/NUMA machines, because the default batch size is too small, for frag code usage. Thus, I have adjusted the batch size by using __percpu_counter_add() directly, instead of percpu_counter_sub() and percpu_counter_add(). The batch size is increased to 130.000, based on the largest 64K fragment memory usage. This does introduce some imprecise memory accounting, but its does not need to be strict for this use-case. It is also essential, that the percpu_counter, does not share cacheline with other writers, to make this scale. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-29net: frag helper functions for mem limit trackingJesper Dangaard Brouer
This change is primarily a preparation to ease the extension of memory limit tracking. The change does reduce the number atomic operation, during freeing of a frag queue. This does introduce a some performance improvement, as these atomic operations are at the core of the performance problems seen on NUMA systems.

2013-01-29net: cacheline adjust struct inet_frag_queueJesper Dangaard Brouer
Fragmentation code cacheline adjusting of struct inet_frag_queue. Take advantage of the size of struct timer_list, and move all but spinlock_t lock, below the timer struct. On 64-bit 'lru_list', 'list' and 'refcnt', fits exactly into the next cacheline, and a new cacheline starts at 'fragments'. The netns_frags *net pointer is moved to the end of the struct, because its used in a compare, with "next/close-by" elements of which this struct is embedded into.

2013-01-29net: cacheline adjust struct inet_frags for better frag performanceJesper Dangaard Brouer
The globally shared rwlock, of struct inet_frags, shares cacheline with the 'rnd' number, which is used by the hash calculations. Fix this, as this obviously is a bad idea, as unnecessary cache-misses will occur when accessing the 'rnd' number. Also small note that, moving function ptr (*match) up in struct, is to avoid it lands on the next cacheline (on 64-bit).
