2014-09-26bpf: verifier (add docs)Alexei Starovoitov
this patch adds all of eBPF verfier documentation and empty bpf_check() The end goal for the verifier is to statically check safety of the program. Verifier will catch: - loops - out of range jumps - unreachable instructions - invalid instructions - uninitialized register access - uninitialized stack access - misaligned stack access - out of range stack access - invalid calling convention More details in Documentation/networking/filter.txt Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-09-26bpf: introduce BPF syscall and mapsAlexei Starovoitov
BPF syscall is a multiplexor for a range of different operations on eBPF. This patch introduces syscall with single command to create a map. Next patch adds commands to access maps. 'maps' is a generic storage of different types for sharing data between kernel and userspace. Userspace example: /* this syscall wrapper creates a map with given type and attributes * and returns map_fd on success. * use close(map_fd) to delete the map */ int bpf_create_map(enum bpf_map_type map_type, int key_size, int value_size, int max_entries) { union bpf_attr attr = { .map_type = map_type, .key_size = key_size, .value_size = value_size, .max_entries = max_entries }; return bpf(BPF_MAP_CREATE, &attr, sizeof(attr)); } 'union bpf_attr' is backwards compatible with future extensions.

2014-09-23icmp: add a global rate limitationEric Dumazet
Current ICMP rate limiting uses inetpeer cache, which is an RBL tree protected by a lock, meaning that hosts can be stuck hard if all cpus want to check ICMP limits. When say a DNS or NTP server process is restarted, inetpeer tree grows quick and machine comes to its knees. iptables can not help because the bottleneck happens before ICMP messages are even cooked and sent. This patch adds a new global limitation, using a token bucket filter, controlled by two new sysctl : icmp_msgs_per_sec - INTEGER Limit maximal number of ICMP packets sent per second from this host. Only messages whose type matches icmp_ratemask are controlled by this limit. Default: 1000 icmp_msgs_burst - INTEGER icmp_msgs_per_sec controls number of ICMP packets sent per second, while icmp_msgs_burst controls the burst size of these packets. Default: 50 Note that if we really want to send millions of ICMP messages per second, we might extend idea and infra added in commit 04ca6973f7c1a ("ip: make IP identifiers less predictable") : add a token bucket in the ip_idents hash and no longer rely on inetpeer.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) If the user gives us a msg_namelen of 0, don't try to interpret anything pointed to by msg_name. From Ani Sinha. 2) Fix some bnx2i/bnx2fc randconfig compilation errors. The gist of the issue is that we firstly have drivers that span both SCSI and networking. And at the top of that chain of dependencies we have things like SCSI_FC_ATTRS and SCSI_NETLINK which are selected. But since select is a sledgehammer and ignores dependencies, everything to select's SCSI_FC_ATTRS and/or SCSI_NETLINK has to also explicitly select their dependencies and so on and so forth. Generally speaking 'select' is supposed to only be used for child nodes, those which have no dependencies of their own. And this whole chain of dependencies in the scsi layer violates that rather strongly. So just make SCSI_NETLINK depend upon it's dependencies, and so on and so forth for the things selecting it (either directly or indirectly). From Anish Bhatt and Randy Dunlap. 3) Fix generation of blackhole routes in IPSEC, from Steffen Klassert. 4) Actually notice netdev feature changes in rtl_open() code, from Hayes Wang. 5) Fix divide by zero in bond enslaving, from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 6) Missing memory barrier in sunvnet driver, from David Stevens. 7) Don't leave anycast addresses around when ipv6 interface is destroyed, from Sabrina Dubroca. 8) Don't call efx_{arch}_filter_sync_rx_mode before addr_list_lock is initialized in SFC driver, from Edward Cree. 9) Fix missing DMA error checking in 3c59x, from Neal Horman. 10) Openvswitch doesn't emit OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW notifications accidently, fix from Samuel Gauthier. 11) pch_gbe needs to select NET_PTP_CLASSIFY otherwise we can get a build error. 12) Fix macvlan regression wherein we stopped emitting broadcast/multicast frames over software devices. From Nicolas Dichtel. 13) Fix infiniband bug due to unintended overflow of skb->cb[], from Eric Dumazet. And add an assertion so this doesn't happen again. 14) dm9000_parse_dt() should return error pointers, not NULL. From Tobias Klauser. 15) IP tunneling code uses this_cpu_ptr() in preemptible contexts, fix from Eric Dumazet. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (87 commits) net: bcmgenet: call bcmgenet_dma_teardown in bcmgenet_fini_dma net: bcmgenet: fix TX reclaim accounting for fragments ipv4: do not use this_cpu_ptr() in preemptible context dm9000: Return an ERR_PTR() in all error conditions of dm9000_parse_dt() r8169: fix an if condition r8152: disable ALDPS ipoib: validate struct ipoib_cb size net: sched: shrink struct qdisc_skb_cb to 28 bytes tg3: Work around HW/FW limitations with vlan encapsulated frames macvlan: allow to enqueue broadcast pkt on virtual device pch_gbe: 'select' NET_PTP_CLASSIFY. scsi: Use 'depends' with LIBFC instead of 'select'. openvswitch: restore OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW notifications genetlink: add function genl_has_listeners() lib: rhashtable: remove second linux/log2.h inclusion net: allow macvlans to move to net namespace 3c59x: Fix bad offset spec in skb_frag_dma_map 3c59x: Add dma error checking and recovery sparc: bpf_jit: fix support for ldx/stx mem and SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG can: at91_can: add missing prepare and unprepare of the clock ...

2014-09-09net: filter: add "load 64-bit immediate" eBPF instructionAlexei Starovoitov
add BPF_LD_IMM64 instruction to load 64-bit immediate value into a register. All previous instructions were 8-byte. This is first 16-byte instruction. Two consecutive 'struct bpf_insn' blocks are interpreted as single instruction: insn[0].code = BPF_LD | BPF_DW | BPF_IMM insn[0].dst_reg = destination register insn[0].imm = lower 32-bit insn[1].code = 0 insn[1].imm = upper 32-bit All unused fields must be zero. Classic BPF has similar instruction: BPF_LD | BPF_W | BPF_IMM which loads 32-bit immediate value into a register. x64 JITs it as single 'movabsq %rax, imm64' arm64 may JIT as sequence of four 'movk x0, #imm16, lsl #shift' insn Note that old eBPF programs are binary compatible with new interpreter. It helps eBPF programs load 64-bit constant into a register with one instruction instead of using two registers and 4 instructions: BPF_MOV32_IMM(R1, imm32) BPF_ALU64_IMM(BPF_LSH, R1, 32) BPF_MOV32_IMM(R2, imm32) BPF_ALU64_REG(BPF_OR, R1, R2) User space generated programs will use this instruction to load constants only. To tell kernel that user space needs a pointer the _pseudo_ variant of this instruction may be added later, which will use extra bits of encoding to indicate what type of pointer user space is asking kernel to provide. For example 'off' or 'src_reg' fields can be used for such purpose. src_reg = 1 could mean that user space is asking kernel to validate and load in-kernel map pointer. src_reg = 2 could mean that user space needs readonly data section pointer src_reg = 3 could mean that user space needs a pointer to per-cpu local data All such future pseudo instructions will not be carrying the actual pointer as part of the instruction, but rather will be treated as a request to kernel to provide one. The kernel will verify the request_for_a_pointer, then will drop _pseudo_ marking and will store actual internal pointer inside the instruction, so the end result is the interpreter and JITs never see pseudo BPF_LD_IMM64 insns and only operate on generic BPF_LD_IMM64 that loads 64-bit immediate into a register. User space never operates on direct pointers and verifier can easily recognize request_for_pointer vs other instructions. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

A buffer is incorrectly zeroed to the length of the pointer. If cfg_payload_len < sizeof(void *) this can overwrites unrelated memory. The buffer contents are never read, so no need to zero.

2014-09-05ipv4: implement igmp_qrv sysctl to tune igmp robustness variableHannes Frederic Sowa
As in IPv6 people might increase the igmp query robustness variable to make sure unsolicited state change reports aren't lost on the network. Add and document this new knob to igmp code. RFCs allow tuning this parameter back to first IGMP RFC, so we also use this setting for all counters, including source specific multicast. Also take over sysctl value when upping the interface and don't reuse the last one seen on the interface.

2014-09-05ipv6: add sysctl_mld_qrv to configure query robustness variableHannes Frederic Sowa
This patch adds a new sysctl_mld_qrv knob to configure the mldv1/v2 query robustness variable. It specifies how many retransmit of unsolicited mld retransmit should happen. Admins might want to tune this on lossy links. Also reset mld state on interface down/up, so we pick up new sysctl settings during interface up event. IPv6 certification requests this knob to be available. I didn't make this knob netns specific, as it is mostly a setting in a physical environment and should be per host.

2014-09-03video: fix composite video connector compatible stringTomi Valkeinen
The quite-recently-added analog-tv-connector bindings say that the compatible string for composite video connector is "composite-connector". That string is also used in the omap3-n900.dts file. However, the connector driver uses "composite-video-connector", so this has never worked. While changing the driver's compatible string to "composite-connector" would be safer, as published DT bindings should not be changed, I'd rather fix the bindings in this case for two reasons: * composite-connector is a bit too generic name, as it doesn't even hint at video. * it's clear that this has never worked, which means no one has used those bindings, which should make it safe to change this.

2014-09-02tipc: add name distributor resiliency queueErik Hugne
TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster, entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table. In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous, conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node. However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error". In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it. The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.

The delta is a largeish negative delta, due to revert of SMP support for Broadcom's STB SoC -- it was accidentally merged before some issues had been addressed, so they will make a new attempt for 3.18. I didn't see a need for a full revert of the whole platform due to this, we're keeping the rest enabled. The rest is mostly: - a handful of DT fixes for i.MX (Hummingboard/Cubox-i in particular) - some MTD/NAND fixes for OMAP - minor DT fixes for shmobile - warning fix for UP builds on vexpress/spc There's also a couple of patches that wires up hwmod on TI's DRA7 SoC so it can boot.
