2012-07-23ipv4: Prepare for change of rt->rt_iif encoding.David S. Miller
Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of cached RX dst in inet sock. rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively. When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will be set to zero. This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4 specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6 input paths yet. Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check callback. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The ipv4 routing cache is non-deterministic, performance wise, and is subject to reasonably easy to launch denial of service attacks. The routing cache works great for well behaved traffic, and the world was a much friendlier place when the tradeoffs that led to the routing cache's design were considered. What it boils down to is that the performance of the routing cache is a product of the traffic patterns seen by a system rather than being a product of the contents of the routing tables. The former of which is controllable by external entitites. Even for "well behaved" legitimate traffic, high volume sites can see hit rates in the routing cache of only ~%10. The general flow of this patch series is that first the routing cache is removed. We build a completely new rtable entry every lookup request. Next we make some simplifications due to the fact that removing the routing cache causes several members of struct rtable to become no longer necessary. Then we need to make some amends such that we can legally cache pre-constructed routes in the FIB nexthops. Firstly, we need to invalidate routes which are hit with nexthop exceptions. Secondly we have to change the semantics of rt->rt_gateway such that zero means that the destination is on-link and non-zero otherwise. Now that the preparations are ready, we start caching precomputed routes in the FIB nexthops. Output and input routes need different kinds of care when determining if we can legally do such caching or not. The details are in the commit log messages for those changes. The patch series then winds down with some more struct rtable simplifications and other tidy ups that remove unnecessary overhead. On a SPARC-T3 output route lookups are ~876 cycles. Input route lookups are ~1169 cycles with rpfilter disabled, and about ~1468 cycles with rpfilter enabled. These measurements were taken with the kbench_mod test module in the net_test_tools GIT tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net_test_tools.git That GIT tree also includes a udpflood tester tool and stresses route lookups on packet output. For example, on the same SPARC-T3 system we can run: time ./udpflood -l 10000000 10.2.2.11 with routing cache: real 1m21.955s user 0m6.530s sys 1m15.390s without routing cache: real 1m31.678s user 0m6.520s sys 1m25.140s Performance undoubtedly can easily be improved further. For example fib_table_lookup() performs a lot of excessive computations with all the masking and shifting, some of it conditionalized to deal with edge cases. Also, Eric's no-ref optimization for input route lookups can be re-instated for the FIB nexthop caching code path. I would be really pleased if someone would work on that. In fact anyone suitable motivated can just fire up perf on the loading of the test net_test_tools benchmark kernel module. I spend much of my time going: bash# perf record insmod ./kbench_mod.ko dst=172.30.42.22 src=74.128.0.1 iif=2 bash# perf report Thanks to helpful feedback from Joe Perches, Eric Dumazet, Ben Hutchings, and others.

2012-07-22sctp: Implement quick failover draft from tsvwgNeil Horman
I've seen several attempts recently made to do quick failover of sctp transports by reducing various retransmit timers and counters. While its possible to implement a faster failover on multihomed sctp associations, its not particularly robust, in that it can lead to unneeded retransmits, as well as false connection failures due to intermittent latency on a network. Instead, lets implement the new ietf quick failover draft found here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nishida-tsvwg-sctp-failover-05 This will let the sctp stack identify transports that have had a small number of errors, and avoid using them quickly until their reliability can be re-established. I've tested this out on two virt guests connected via multiple isolated virt networks and believe its in compliance with the above draft and works well.

2012-07-17Merge branch 'nexthop_exceptions'David S. Miller
These patches implement the final mechanism necessary to really allow us to go without the route cache in ipv4. We need a place to have long-term storage of PMTU/redirect information which is independent of the routes themselves, yet does not get us back into a situation where we have to write to metrics or anything like that. For this we use an "next-hop exception" table in the FIB nexthops. The one thing I desperately want to avoid is having to create clone routes in the FIB trie for this purpose, because that is very expensive. However, I'm willing to entertain such an idea later if this current scheme proves to have downsides that the FIB trie variant would not have. In order to accomodate this any such scheme, we need to be able to produce a full flow key at PMTU/redirect time. That required an adjustment of the interface call-sites used to propagate these events. For a PMTU/redirect with a fully specified socket, we pass that socket and use it to produce the flow key. Otherwise we use a passed in SKB to formulate the key. There are two cases that need to be distinguished, ICMP message processing (in which case the IP header is at skb->data) and output packet processing (mostly tunnels, and in all such cases the IP header is at ip_hdr(skb)). We also have to make the code able to handle the case where the dst itself passed into the dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect} method is invalidated. This matters for calls from sockets that have cached that route. We provide a inet{,6} helper function for this purpose, and edit SCTP specially since it caches routes at the transport rather than socket level. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-17net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()David S. Miller
This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key. Even though we have a route in this context, we need more. In the future the routes will be without destination address, source address, etc. keying. One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc. In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage for redirects and PMTU information. This persistent storage will exist in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a full lookup flow key here. Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup() and create/update the persistent entry. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As a result, we get a gpf when traversing the hashtable while a freed node corrupts part of the list. Nominally I would think that an mibalanced refcount was responsible for this, but I can't seem to find any obvious imbalance. What I did note however was that the two places where we create an association using sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE (__sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg), have failure paths which free a newly created association after calling sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE. sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE brings us into the sctp_sf_do_prm_asoc path, which issues a SCTP_CMD_NEW_ASOC side effect, which in turn adds a new association to the aforementioned hash table. the sctp command interpreter that process side effects has not way to unwind previously processed commands, so freeing the association from the __sctp_connect or sctp_sendmsg error path would lead to a freed association remaining on this hash table. I've fixed this but modifying sctp_[un]hash_established to use hlist_del_init, which allows us to proerly use hlist_unhashed to check if the node is on a hashlist safely during a delete. That in turn alows us to safely call sctp_unhash_established in the __sctp_connect and sctp_sendmsg error paths before freeing them, regardles of what the associations state is on the hash list. I noted, while I was doing this, that the __sctp_unhash_endpoint was using hlist_unhsashed in a simmilar fashion, but never nullified any removed nodes pointers to make that function work properly, so I fixed that up in a simmilar fashion. I attempted to test this using a virtual guest running the SCTP_RR test from netperf in a loop while running the trinity fuzzer, both in a loop. I wasn't able to recreate the problem prior to this fix, nor was I able to trigger the failure after (neither of which I suppose is suprising). Given the trace above however, I think its likely that this is what we hit. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Reported-by: davej@redhat.com CC: davej@redhat.com CC: "David S.

2012-07-09sctp: refactor sctp_packet_append_chunk and clenup some memory leaksNeil Horman
While doing some recent work on sctp sack bundling I noted that sctp_packet_append_chunk was pretty inefficient. Specifially, it was called recursively while trying to bundle auth and sack chunks. Because of that we call sctp_packet_bundle_sack and sctp_packet_bundle_auth a total of 4 times for every call to sctp_packet_append_chunk, knowing that at least 3 of those calls will do nothing. So lets refactor sctp_packet_bundle_auth to have an outer part that does the attempted bundling, and an inner part that just does the chunk appends. This saves us several calls per iteration that we just don't need. Also, noticed that the auth and sack bundling fail to free the chunks they allocate if the append fails, so make sure we add that in Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@gmail.com> CC: "David S.

2012-07-01sctp: be more restrictive in transport selection on bundled sacksNeil Horman
It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC 2960: An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK, etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks together with the reply chunk. This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings us into stricter compliance with the RFC. Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to enable/disable it.

2012-04-04sctp: Allow struct sctp_event_subscribe to grow without breaking binariesThomas Graf
getsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) performs a length check and returns an error if the user provides less bytes than the size of struct sctp_event_subscribe. Struct sctp_event_subscribe needs to be extended by an u8 for every new event or notification type that is added. This obviously makes getsockopt fail for binaries that are compiled against an older versions of <net/sctp/user.h> which do not contain all event types. This patch changes getsockopt behaviour to no longer return an error if not enough bytes are being provided by the user. Instead, it returns as much of sctp_event_subscribe as fits into the provided buffer. This leads to the new behavior that users see what they have been aware of at compile time.

2011-12-20sctp: Do not account for sizeof(struct sk_buff) in estimated rwndThomas Graf
When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse performance. The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already accounted for. When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd overusage in combination with small DATA chunks. Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed, the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits are increased. The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for sk_(r|w)mem.

2011-12-19sctp: fix incorrect overflow check on autocloseXi Wang
Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.

2011-11-29sctp: better integer overflow check in sctp_auth_create_key()Xi Wang
The check from commit 30c2235c is incomplete and cannot prevent cases like key_len = 0x80000000 (INT_MAX + 1). In that case, the left-hand side of the check (INT_MAX - key_len), which is unsigned, becomes 0xffffffff (UINT_MAX) and bypasses the check. However this shouldn't be a security issue. The function is called from the following two code paths: 1) setsockopt() 2) sctp_auth_asoc_set_secret() In case (1), sca_keylength is never going to exceed 65535 since it's bounded by a u16 from the user API. As such, the key length will never overflow. In case (2), sca_keylength is computed based on the user key (1 short) and 2 * key_vector (3 shorts) for a total of 7 * USHRT_MAX, which still will not overflow. In other words, this overflow check is not really necessary. Just make it more correct.

2011-10-13net: more accurate skb truesizeEric Dumazet
skb truesize currently accounts for sk_buff struct and part of skb head. kmalloc() roundings are also ignored. Considering that skb_shared_info is larger than sk_buff, its time to take it into account for better memory accounting. This patch introduces SKB_TRUESIZE(X) macro to centralize various assumptions into a single place. At skb alloc phase, we put skb_shared_info struct at the exact end of skb head, to allow a better use of memory (lowering number of reallocations), since kmalloc() gives us power-of-two memory blocks. Unless SLUB/SLUB debug is active, both skb->head and skb_shared_info are aligned to cache lines, as before. Note: This patch might trigger performance regressions because of misconfigured protocol stacks, hitting per socket or global memory limits that were previously not reached. But its a necessary step for a more accurate memory accounting.

2011-09-16sctp: deal with multiple COOKIE_ECHO chunksMax Matveev
Attempt to reduce the number of IP packets emitted in response to single SCTP packet (2e3216cd) introduced a complication - if a packet contains two COOKIE_ECHO chunks and nothing else then SCTP state machine corks the socket while processing first COOKIE_ECHO and then loses the association and forgets to uncork the socket. To deal with the issue add new SCTP command which can be used to set association explictly. Use this new command when processing second COOKIE_ECHO chunk to restore the context for SCTP state machine. Signed-off-by: Max Matveev <makc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Packets to devices without NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM (including NETIF_F_NO_CSUM) should be properly checksummed because the packets can be diverted or rerouted after construction. This still leaves packets diverted from NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM-enabled devices with broken checksums. Fixing this needs implementing software offload fallback in networking core. For users of sctp_checksum_disable, skb->ip_summed should be left as CHECKSUM_NONE and not CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY as per include/linux/skbuff.h.

2011-07-08sctp: ABORT if receive, reassmbly, or reodering queue is not empty while ↵Thomas Graf
closing socket Trigger user ABORT if application closes a socket which has data queued on the socket receive queue or chunks waiting on the reassembly or ordering queue as this would imply data being lost which defeats the point of a graceful shutdown. This behavior is already practiced in TCP. We do not check the input queue because that would mean to parse all chunks on it to look for unacknowledged data which seems too much of an effort. Control chunks or duplicated chunks may also be in the input queue and should not be stopping a graceful shutdown.

2011-07-07sctp: Enforce retransmission limit during shutdownThomas Graf
When initiating a graceful shutdown while having data chunks on the retransmission queue with a peer which is in zero window mode the shutdown is never completed because the retransmission error count is reset periodically by the following two rules: - Do not timeout association while doing zero window probe. - Reset overall error count when a heartbeat request has been acknowledged. The graceful shutdown will wait for all outstanding TSN to be acknowledged before sending the SHUTDOWN request. This never happens due to the peer's zero window not acknowledging the continuously retransmitted data chunks. Although the error counter is incremented for each failed retransmission, the receiving of the SACK announcing the zero window clears the error count again immediately. Also heartbeat requests continue to be sent periodically. The peer acknowledges these requests causing the error counter to be reset as well. This patch changes behaviour to only reset the overall error counter for the above rules while not in shutdown. After reaching the maximum number of retransmission attempts, the T5 shutdown guard timer is scheduled to give the receiver some additional time to recover. The timer is stopped as soon as the receiver acknowledges any data. The issue can be easily reproduced by establishing a sctp association over the loopback device, constantly queueing data at the sender while not reading any at the receiver. Wait for the window to reach zero, then initiate a shutdown by killing both processes simultaneously. The association will never be freed and the chunks on the retransmission queue will be retransmitted indefinitely.
