2013-05-28MPLS: Add limited GSO supportSimon Horman
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets. The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets whose skbs are GSO. SKB Usage: When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do the following to skb metadata: * Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet. skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch. * Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet. * Set skb->network_header to correspond to the end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack. I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich. That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls() and was used to exercise this code. The datapath patch is against the Open vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point. Features: I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially consistent with the handling of other protocols. Jesse, I understand that you have some ideas here. I am more than happy to change my implementation. This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices to advertise features supported for MPLS packets. A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support hardware MPLS GSO offload. Currently no devices support this and MPLS GSO always falls back to software. Alternate Implementation: One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features() and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to __skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment(). I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled into the kernel or inserted as a module. MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross. Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE" by Pravin B Shelar.

2013-05-26net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.Lorenzo Colitti
This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in 2011. Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or duplication of bugs in the future. Caveats: - Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported. - There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6; everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range. - The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets properly. Tested with a patched copy of ping6 and using raw socket calls. Compiles and works with all of CONFIG_IPV6={n,m,y}. Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-05-23tcp: bug fix in proportional rate reduction.Nandita Dukkipati
This patch is a fix for a bug triggering newly_acked_sacked < 0 in tcp_ack(.). The bug is triggered by sacked_out decreasing relative to prior_sacked, but packets_out remaining the same as pior_packets. This is because the snapshot of prior_packets is taken after tcp_sacktag_write_queue() while prior_sacked is captured before tcp_sacktag_write_queue(). The problem is: tcp_sacktag_write_queue (tcp_match_skb_to_sack() -> tcp_fragment) adjusts the pcount for packets_out and sacked_out (MSS change or other reason). As a result, this delta in pcount is reflected in (prior_sacked - sacked_out) but not in (prior_packets - packets_out). This patch does the following: 1) initializes prior_packets at the start of tcp_ack() so as to capture the delta in packets_out created by tcp_fragment. 2) introduces a new "previous_packets_out" variable that snapshots packets_out right before tcp_clean_rtx_queue, so pkts_acked can be correctly computed as before. 3) Computes pkts_acked using previous_packets_out, and computes newly_acked_sacked using prior_packets.

2013-05-23sch_tbf: segment too big GSO packetsEric Dumazet
If a GSO packet has a length above tbf burst limit, the packet is currently silently dropped. Current way to handle this is to set the device in non GSO/TSO mode, or setting high bursts, and its sub optimal. We can actually segment too big GSO packets, and send individual segments as tbf parameters allow, allowing for better interoperability.

2013-05-22net: Loosen constraints for recalculating checksum in skb_segment()Simon Horman
This is a generic solution to resolve a specific problem that I have observed. If the encapsulation of an skb changes then ability to offload checksums may also change. In particular it may be necessary to perform checksumming in software. An example of such a case is where a non-GRE packet is received but is to be encapsulated and transmitted as GRE. Another example relates to my proposed support for for packets that are non-MPLS when received but MPLS when transmitted. The cost of this change is that the value of the csum variable may be checked when it previously was not. In the case where the csum variable is true this is pure overhead. In the case where the csum variable is false it leads to software checksumming, which I believe also leads to correct checksums in transmitted packets for the cases described above. Further analysis: This patch relies on the return value of can_checksum_protocol() being correct and in turn the return value of skb_network_protocol(), used to provide the protocol parameter of can_checksum_protocol(), being correct. It also relies on the features passed to skb_segment() and in turn to can_checksum_protocol() being correct. I believe that this problem has not been observed for VLANs because it appears that almost all drivers, the exception being xgbe, set vlan_features such that that the checksum offload support for VLAN packets is greater than or equal to that of non-VLAN packets. I wonder if the code in xgbe may be an oversight and the hardware does support checksumming of VLAN packets. If so it may be worth updating the vlan_features of the driver as this patch will force such checksums to be performed in software rather than hardware.

Currently we arm the expire timer when the mdb entry is added, however, this causes problem when there is no querier sent out after that.

There has to be at least one querier in the network for this thing to work. Otherwise it just degenerates into a non-snooping switch, which is OK."

2013-05-22bridge: use the bridge IP addr as source addr for querierCong Wang
Quote from Adam: "If it is believed that the use of 0.0.0.0 as the IP address is what is causing strange behaviour on other devices then is there a good reason that a bridge rather than a router shouldn't be the active querier? If not then using the bridge IP address and having the querier enabled by default may be a reasonable solution (provided that our querier obeys the election rules and shuts up if it sees a query from a lower IP address that isn't 0.0.0.0). Just because a device is the elected querier for IGMP doesn't appear to mean it is required to perform any other routing functions." And introduce a new troggle for it, as suggested by Herbert.

2013-05-20rps: selective flow shedding during softnet overflowWillem de Bruijn
A cpu executing the network receive path sheds packets when its input queue grows to netdev_max_backlog. A single high rate flow (such as a spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu. This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this (set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold. Tested: Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0, kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7 each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is dropped and the server processes its complete load. The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet socket tap, ..).

2013-05-20tcp: remove bad timeout logic in fast recoveryYuchung Cheng
tcp_timeout_skb() was intended to trigger fast recovery on timeout, unfortunately in reality it often causes spurious retransmission storms during fast recovery. The particular sign is a fast retransmit over the highest sacked sequence (SND.FACK). Currently the RTO timer re-arming (as in RFC6298) offers a nice cushion to avoid spurious timeout: when SND.UNA advances the sender re-arms RTO and extends the timeout by icsk_rto. The sender does not offset the time elapsed since the packet at SND.UNA was sent. But if the next (DUP)ACK arrives later than ~RTTVAR and triggers tcp_fastretrans_alert(), then tcp_timeout_skb() will mark any packet sent before the icsk_rto interval lost, including one that's above the highest sacked sequence. Most likely a large part of scorebard will be marked. If most packets are not lost then the subsequent DUPACKs with new SACK blocks will cause the sender to continue to retransmit packets beyond SND.FACK spuriously. Even if only one packet is lost the sender may falsely retransmit almost the entire window. The situation becomes common in the world of bufferbloat: the RTT continues to grow as the queue builds up but RTTVAR remains small and close to the minimum 200ms. If a data packet is lost and the DUPACK triggered by the next data packet is slightly delayed, then a spurious retransmission storm forms. As the original comment on tcp_timeout_skb() suggests: the usefulness of this feature is questionable. It also wastes cycles walking the sack scoreboard and is actually harmful because of false recovery. It's time to remove this.

Unfortunately our batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_free_ref() does just that, via a batadv_orig_node_free_ref() call, leading to our rcu_barrier() call potentially missing such a batadv_orig_node_free_ref(). This patch fixes this issue by calling the batadv_orig_node_free_rcu() directly from the rcu callback, removing the unnecessary, additional call_rcu() layer here.

2013-05-16tcp: speedup tcp_fixup_rcvbuf()Eric Dumazet
tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() contains a loop to estimate initial socket rcv space needed for a given mss. With large MTU (like 64K on lo), we can loop ~500 times and consume a lot of cpu cycles. perf top of 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_CRR 5.62% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] tcp_init_buffer_space 1.71% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock 1.55% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] kmem_cache_free 1.51% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] tcp_transmit_skb 1.50% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] tcp_ack Lets use a 100% factor, and remove the loop. 100% is needed anyway for tcp_adv_win_scale=1 default value, and is also the maximum factor.

2013-05-16tcp: gso: do not generate out of order packetsEric Dumazet
GSO TCP handler has following issues : 1) ooo_okay from original GSO packet is duplicated to all segments 2) segments (but the last one) are orphaned, so transmit path can not get transmit queue number from the socket. This happens if GSO segmentation is done before stacked device for example. Result is we can send packets from a given TCP flow to different TX queues (if using multiqueue NICS). This generates OOO problems and spurious SACK & retransmits. Fix this by keeping socket pointer set for all segments. This means that every segment must also have a destructor, and the original gso skb truesize must be split on all segments, to keep precise sk->sk_wmem_alloc accounting.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following patchset contains three Netfilter fixes and update for the MAINTAINER file for your net tree, they are: * Fix crash if nf_log_packet is called from conntrack, in that case both interfaces are NULL, from Hans Schillstrom. This bug introduced with the logging netns support in the previous merge window. * Fix compilation of nf_log and nf_queue without CONFIG_PROC_FS, from myself. This bug was introduced in the previous merge window with the new netns support for the netfilter logging infrastructure. * Fix possible crash in xt_TCPOPTSTRIP due to missing sanity checkings to validate that the TCP header is well-formed, from myself. I can find this bug in 2.6.25, probably it's been there since the beginning. I'll pass this to -stable. * Update MAINTAINER file to point to new nf trees at git.kernel.org, remove Harald and use M: instead of P: (now obsolete tag) to keep Jozsef in the list of people. Please, consider pulling this. Thanks! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-05-16cfg80211: fix sending WoWLAN TCP wakeup settingsJohannes Berg
The code sending the current WoWLAN TCP wakeup settings in nl80211_send_wowlan_tcp() is not closing the nested attribute, thus causing the parser to get confused on the receiver side in userspace (iw).

2013-05-16mac80211: report deauth to cfg80211 for local state changeJohannes Berg
Even if the frame isn't transmitted to the AP, we need to report it to cfg80211 so the state there can be updated correctly. Reported-by: Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
2013-05-16cfg80211: fix interface down/disconnect state handlingJohannes Berg
When the interface goes down, there's no need to call cfg80211_mlme_down() after __cfg80211_disconnect() as the latter will call the former (if appropriate.) Also, in __cfg80211_disconnect(), if the cfg80211 SME isn't used, __cfg80211_disconnected() may still need to be called (depending on the current state) so that the SME state gets cleared.

In AP mode, ignore frames with mis-matched BSSID that aren't multicast or sent to the correct destination.

2013-05-16mac80211: fix HT beacon-based channel switch handlingJohannes Berg
When an HT AP is advertising channel switch in a beacon, it doesn't (and shouldn't, according to 802.11-2012 Table 8-20) include a secondary channel offset element. The only possible interpretation is that the previous secondary channel offset remains valid, so use that when switching channel based only on beacon information. VHT requires the Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch subelement to be present in the Channel Switch Wrapper element, so the code for that is probably ok (see 802.11ac Draft 4, 8.4.2.165.)
