The VMCI context ID of a virtual machine may change at any time. There
is a VMCI event which signals this but datagrams may be processed before
this is handled. It is therefore necessary to be flexible about the
destination context ID of any datagrams received. (It can be assumed to
be correct because it is provided by the hypervisor.) The context ID on
existing sockets should be updated to reflect how the hypervisor is
currently referring to the system.

IPv6 Routing table becomes broken once we do ifdown, ifup of the loopback(lo)
interface. After down-up, routes of other interface's IPv6 addresses through
'lo' are lost.
IPv6 addresses assigned to all interfaces are routed through 'lo' for internal
communication. Once 'lo' is down, those routing entries are removed from routing
table. But those removed entries are not being re-created properly when 'lo' is
brought up. So IPv6 addresses of other interfaces becomes unreachable from the
same machine. Also this breaks communication with other machines because of
NDISC packet processing failure.
This patch fixes this issue by reading all interface's IPv6 addresses and adding
them to IPv6 routing table while bringing up 'lo'.

Commit 3fb72f1e6e6165c5f495e8dc11c5bbd14c73385c ("ipconfig wait
for carrier") added a "wait for carrier on at least one interface"
policy, with a worst case maximum wait of two minutes.
However, if you encounter this, you won't get any feedback from
the console as to the nature of what is going on. You just see
the booting process hang for two minutes and then continue.
Here we add a message so the user knows what is going on, and
hence can take action to rectify the situation (e.g. fix network
cable or whatever.) After the 1st 10s pause, output now begins
that looks like this:
Waiting up to 110 more seconds for network.
Waiting up to 100 more seconds for network.
Waiting up to 90 more seconds for network.
Waiting up to 80 more seconds for network.
...
Since most systems will have no problem getting link/carrier in the
1st 10s, the only people who will see these messages are people with
genuine issues that need to be resolved.

currently cbq works incorrectly for limits > 10% real link bandwidth,
and practically does not work for limits > 50% real link bandwidth.
Below are results of experiments taken on 1 Gbit link
In shaper | Actual Result
-----------+---------------
100M | 108 Mbps
200M | 244 Mbps
300M | 412 Mbps
500M | 893 Mbps
This happen because of q->now changes incorrectly in cbq_dequeue():
when it is called before real end of packet transmitting,
L2T is greater than real time delay, q_now gets an extra boost
but never compensate it.
To fix this problem we prevent change of q->now until its synchronization
with real time.

Current NFQUEUE target uses a hash, computed over source and
destination address (and other parameters), for steering the packet
to the actual NFQUEUE. This, however forgets about the fact that the
packet eventually is handled by a particular CPU on user request.
If E. g.
1) IRQ affinity is used to handle packets on a particular CPU already
(both single-queue or multi-queue case)
and/or
2) RPS is used to steer packets to a specific softirq
the target easily chooses an NFQUEUE which is not handled by a process
pinned to the same CPU.
The idea is therefore to use the CPU index for determining the
NFQUEUE handling the packet.
E. g. when having a system with 4 CPUs, 4 MQ queues and 4 NFQUEUEs it
looks like this:
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
|NFQ#0| |NFQ#1| |NFQ#2| |NFQ#3|
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
^ ^ ^ ^
| |NFQUEUE | |
+ + + +
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
|rx-0 | |rx-1 | |rx-2 | |rx-3 |
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
The NFQUEUEs not necessarily have to start with number 0, setups with
less NFQUEUEs than packet-handling CPUs are not a problem as well.
This patch extends the NFQUEUE target to accept a new
NFQ_FLAG_CPU_FANOUT flag. If this is specified the target uses the
CPU index for determining the NFQUEUE being used. I have to introduce
rev3 for this. The 'flags' are folded into _v2 'bypass'.
By changing the way which queue is assigned, I'm able to improve the
performance if the processes reading on the NFQUEUs are pinned
correctly.

This is the final step in RCU conversion.
Things that are removed:
- svc->usecnt: now svc is accessed under RCU read lock
- svc->inc: and some unused code
- ip_vs_bind_pe and ip_vs_unbind_pe: no ability to replace PE
- __ip_vs_svc_lock: replaced with RCU
- IP_VS_WAIT_WHILE: now readers lookup svcs and dests under
RCU and work in parallel with configuration
Other changes:
- before now, a RCU read-side critical section included the
calling of the schedule method, now it is extended to include
service lookup
- ip_vs_svc_table and ip_vs_svc_fwm_table are now using hlist
- svc->pe and svc->scheduler remain to the end (of grace period),
the schedulers are prepared for such RCU readers
even after done_service is called but they need
to use synchronize_rcu because last ip_vs_scheduler_put
can happen while RCU read-side critical sections
use an outdated svc->scheduler pointer
- as planned, update_service is removed
- empty services can be freed immediately after grace period.
If dests were present, the services are freed from
the dest trash code

In previous commits the schedulers started to access
svc->destinations with _rcu list traversal primitives
because the IP_VS_WAIT_WHILE macro still plays the role of
grace period. Now it is time to finish the updating part,
i.e. adding and deleting of dests with _rcu suffix before
removing the IP_VS_WAIT_WHILE in next commit.
We use the same rule for conns as for the
schedulers: dests can be searched in RCU read-side critical
section where ip_vs_dest_hold can be called by ip_vs_bind_dest.
Some things are not perfect, for example, calling
functions like ip_vs_lookup_dest from updating code under
RCU, just because we use some function both from reader
and from updater.

All dests will go to trash, no exceptions.
But we have to use new list node t_list for this, due
to RCU changes in following patches. Dests will wait there
initial grace period and later all conns and schedulers to
put their reference. The dests don't get reference for
staying in dest trash as before.
As result, we do not load ip_vs_dest_put with
extra checks for last refcnt and the schedulers do not
need to play games with atomic_inc_not_zero while
selecting best destination.

The schedule method now needs _rcu list-traversal
primitive for svc->destinations. As the weight for some
dest can be reduced during dest selection, change the
algorithm to check weights by using minimum weights in the
1 .. max_weight-(di-1) range, with the same step (di). By this
way we ensure that there will be always a weight >= 1 check
before claiming that all destinations are overloaded.

Convert __ip_vs_conntbl_lock_array as follows:
- readers that do not modify conn lists will use RCU lock
- updaters that modify lists will use spinlock_t
Now for conn lookups we will use RCU read-side
critical section. Without using __ip_vs_conn_get such
places have access to connection fields and can
dereference some pointers like pe and pe_data plus
the ability to update timer expiration. If full access
is required we contend for reference.
We add barrier in __ip_vs_conn_put, so that
other CPUs see the refcnt operation after other writes.
With the introduction of ip_vs_conn_unlink()
we try to reorganize ip_vs_conn_expire(), so that
unhashing of connections that should stay more time is
avoided, even if it is for very short time.

rs_lock was used to protect rs_table (hash table)
from updaters (under global mutex) and readers (packet handlers).
We can remove rs_lock by using RCU lock for readers. Reclaiming
dest only with kfree_rcu is enough because the readers access
only fields from the ip_vs_dest structure.
Use hlist for rs_table.
As we are now using hlist_del_rcu, introduce in_rs_table
flag as replacement for the list_empty checks which do not
work with RCU. It is needed because only NAT dests are in
the rs_table.

from readers in packet context while the application
instances (inc) are [un]registered under global mutex.
As the hash tables are mostly read when conns are

app instance after grace period.

Currently when forwarding requests to real servers
we use dst_lock and atomic operations when cloning the
dst_cache value. As the dst_cache value does not change
most of the time it is better to use RCU and to lock
dst_lock only when we need to replace the obsoleted dst.
For this to work we keep dst_cache in new structure protected
by RCU. For packets to remote real servers we will use noref
version of dst_cache, it will be valid while we are in RCU
read-side critical section because now dst_release for replaced
dsts will be invoked after the grace period. Packets to
local real servers that are passed to local stack with
NF_ACCEPT need a dst clone.

Currently, when a socket receives something on the error queue it only wakes up
the socket on select if it is in the "read" list, that is the socket has
something to read. It is useful also to wake the socket if it is in the error
list, which would enable software to wait on error queue packets without waking
up for regular data on the socket. The main use case is for receiving
timestamped transmit packets which return the timestamp to the socket via the
error queue. This enables an application to select on the socket for the error
queue only instead of for the regular traffic.
-v2-
* Added the SO_SELECT_ERR_QUEUE socket option to every architechture specific file
* Modified every socket poll function that checks error queue

iflink is currently set to 0 in __gre_tunnel_init(). This
function is invoked in gre_tap_init() and
ipgre_tunnel_init() which are both used to initialise the
ndo_init field of the respective net_device_ops structs
(ipgre.. and gre_tap..) used by GRE interfaces.
However, in netdevice_register() iflink is first set to -1,
then ndo_init is invoked and then iflink is assigned to a
proper value if and only if it still was -1.
Assigning 0 to iflink in ndo_init is therefore first
preventing netdev_register() to correctly assign it a proper
value and then breaking iflink at all since 0 has not
correct meaning.
Fix this by removing the iflink assignment in
__gre_tunnel_init().

commit 35d48903e97819 (bonding: fix rx_handler locking) added a race
in bonding driver, reported by Steven Rostedt who did a very good
diagnosis :
<quoting Steven>
I'm currently debugging a crash in an old 3.0-rt kernel that one of our
customers is seeing. The bug happens with a stress test that loads and
unloads the bonding module in a loop (I don't know all the details as
I'm not the one that is directly interacting with the customer). But the
bug looks to be something that may still be present and possibly present
in mainline too. It will just be much harder to trigger it in mainline.
In -rt, interrupts are threads, and can schedule in and out just like
any other thread. Note, mainline now supports interrupt threads so this
may be easily reproducible in mainline as well. I don't have the ability
to tell the customer to try mainline or other kernels, so my hands are
somewhat tied to what I can do.
But according to a core dump, I tracked down that the eth irq thread
crashed in bond_handle_frame() here:
slave = bond_slave_get_rcu(skb->dev);
bond = slave->bond; <--- BUG
the slave returned was NULL and accessing slave->bond caused a NULL
pointer dereference.
Looking at the code that unregisters the handler:
void netdev_rx_handler_unregister(struct net_device *dev)
{
ASSERT_RTNL();
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->rx_handler, NULL);
RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->rx_handler_data, NULL);
}
Which is basically:
dev->rx_handler = NULL;
dev->rx_handler_data = NULL;
And looking at __netif_receive_skb() we have:
rx_handler = rcu_dereference(skb->dev->rx_handler);
if (rx_handler) {
if (pt_prev) {
ret = deliver_skb(skb, pt_prev, orig_dev);
pt_prev = NULL;
}
switch (rx_handler(&skb)) {
My question to all of you is, what stops this interrupt from happening
while the bonding module is unloading? What happens if the interrupt
triggers and we have this:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
rx_handler = skb->dev->rx_handler
netdev_rx_handler_unregister() {
dev->rx_handler = NULL;
dev->rx_handler_data = NULL;
rx_handler()
bond_handle_frame() {
slave = skb->dev->rx_handler;
bond = slave->bond; <-- NULL pointer dereference!!!
What protection am I missing in the bond release handler that would
prevent the above from happening?
</quoting Steven>
We can fix bug this in two ways. First is adding a test in
bond_handle_frame() and others to check if rx_handler_data is NULL.
A second way is adding a synchronize_net() in
netdev_rx_handler_unregister() to make sure that a rcu protected reader
has the guarantee to see a non NULL rx_handler_data.
The second way is better as it avoids an extra test in fast path.
