2014-01-22tcp: delete redundant calls of tcp_mtup_init()Peter Pan(潘卫平)
As tcp_rcv_state_process() has already calls tcp_mtup_init() for non-fastopen sock, we can delete the redundant calls of tcp_mtup_init() in tcp_{v4,v6}_syn_recv_sock(). Signed-off-by: Weiping Pan <panweiping3@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2014-01-20ipv6: optimize link local address searchHannes Frederic Sowa
ipv6_link_dev_addr sorts newly added addresses by scope in ifp->addr_list. Smaller scope addresses are added to the tail of the list. Use this fact to iterate in reverse over addr_list and break out as soon as a higher scoped one showes up, so we can spare some cycles on machines with lot's of addresses. The ordering of the addresses is not relevant and we are more likely to get the eui64 generated address with this change anyway.

2014-01-20ipv6: make IPV6_RECVPKTINFO work for ipv4 datagramsHannes Frederic Sowa
We currently don't report IPV6_RECVPKTINFO in cmsg access ancillary data for IPv4 datagrams on IPv6 sockets. This patch splits the ip6_datagram_recv_ctl into two functions, one which handles both protocol families, AF_INET and AF_INET6, while the ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl only handles IPv6 cmsg data. ip6_datagram_recv_*_ctl never reported back any errors, so we can make them return void. Also provide a helper for protocols which don't offer dual personality to further use ip6_datagram_recv_ctl, which is exported to modules. I needed to shuffle the code for ping around a bit to make it easier to implement dual personality for ping ipv6 sockets in future.

2014-01-19net: introduce SO_BPF_EXTENSIONSMichal Sekletar
For user space packet capturing libraries such as libpcap, there's currently only one way to check which BPF extensions are supported by the kernel, that is, commit aa1113d9f85d ("net: filter: return -EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported"). For querying all extensions at once this might be rather inconvenient. Therefore, this patch introduces a new option which can be used as an argument for getsockopt(), and allows one to obtain information about which BPF extensions are supported by the current kernel. As David Miller suggests, we do not need to define any bits right now and status quo can just return 0 in order to state that this versions supports SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET. Later additions to BPF extensions need to add their bits to the bpf_tell_extensions() function, as documented in the comment.

2014-01-18ipv6: send Change Status Report after DAD is completedFlavio Leitner
The RFC 3810 defines two type of messages for multicast listeners. The "Current State Report" message, as the name implies, refreshes the *current* state to the querier. Since the querier sends Query messages periodically, there is no need to retransmit the report. On the other hand, any change should be reported immediately using "State Change Report" messages. Since it's an event triggered by a change and that it can be affected by packet loss, the rfc states it should be retransmitted [RobVar] times to make sure routers will receive timely. Currently, we are sending "Current State Reports" after DAD is completed. Before that, we send messages using unspecified address (::) which should be silently discarded by routers. This patch changes to send "State Change Report" messages after DAD is completed fixing the behavior to be RFC compliant and also to pass TAHI IPv6 testsuite.

2014-01-18tcp: metrics: Avoid duplicate entries with the same destination-IPChristoph Paasch
Because the tcp-metrics is an RCU-list, it may be that two soft-interrupts are inside __tcp_get_metrics() for the same destination-IP at the same time. If this destination-IP is not yet part of the tcp-metrics, both soft-interrupts will end up in tcpm_new and create a new entry for this IP. So, we will have two tcp-metrics with the same destination-IP in the list. This patch checks twice __tcp_get_metrics(). First without holding the lock, then while holding the lock. The second one is there to confirm that the entry has not been added by another soft-irq while waiting for the spin-lock. Fixes: 51c5d0c4b169b (tcp: Maintain dynamic metrics in local cache.)

After standardizing it with inet_csk_wait_for_connect routine, we can get benefits including: avoiding 'thundering herd' phenomenon, adding a timeout mechanism for accept(), coping with a pending signal, and having sk_sleep() and sk->sk_receive_queue being always protected within socket lock scope and so on.

Comparing the behaviour of how to wait for events in TIPC connect() with other stacks, the TIPC implementation might be perceived as different, and sometimes even incorrect. For instance, as both sock->state and sk_sleep() are directly fed to wait_event_interruptible_timeout() as its arguments, and socket lock has to be released before we call wait_event_interruptible_timeout(), the two variables associated with socket are exposed out of socket lock protection, thereby probably getting stale values so that the process of calling connect() cannot be woken up exactly even if correct event arrives or it is woken up improperly even if the wake condition is not satisfied in practice. Therefore, standardizing its behaviour with sk_stream_wait_connect routine can avoid these risks. Additionally the implementation of connect routine is simplified as a whole, allowing it to return correct values in all different cases.

2014-01-17net: add NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU to notify before mtu change happensVeaceslav Falico
Currently, if a device changes its mtu, first the change happens (invloving all the side effects), and after that the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU is sent so that other devices can catch up with the new mtu. However, if they return NOTIFY_BAD, then the change is reverted and error returned. This is a really long and costy operation (sometimes). To fix this, add NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU notification which is called prior to any change actually happening, and if any callee returns NOTIFY_BAD - the change is aborted. This way we're skipping all the playing with apply/revert the mtu. CC: "David S.

Micro-benchmark with [1] that has been slightly modified (that is, protcol = 0 in socket(2) and bind(2)), example on a rather crappy testing machine; I expect it to scale and have even better results on bigger machines: ./packet_mm_tx -s7000 -m7200 -z700000 em1, avg over 2500 runs: With patch: 4,022,015 cyc Without patch: 4,812,994 cyc time ./packet_mm_tx -s64 -c10000000 em1 > /dev/null, stable: With patch: real 1m32.241s user 0m0.287s sys 1m29.316s Without patch: real 1m38.386s user 0m0.265s sys 1m35.572s In function tpacket_snd(), it is okay to use packet_read_pending() since in fast-path we short-circuit the condition already with ph != NULL, since we have next frames to process. In case we have MSG_DONTWAIT, we also do not execute this path as need_wait is false here anyway, and in case of _no_ MSG_DONTWAIT flag, it is okay to call a packet_read_pending(), because when we ever reach that path, we're done processing outgoing frames anyway and only look if there are skbs still outstanding to be orphaned. We can stay lockless in this percpu counter since it's acceptable when we reach this path for the sum to be imprecise first, but we'll level out at 0 after all pending frames have reached the skb destructor eventually through tx reclaim. When people pin a tx process to particular CPUs, we expect overflows to happen in the reference counter as on one CPU we expect heavy increase; and distributed through ksoftirqd on all CPUs a decrease, for example. As David Laight points out, since the C language doesn't define the result of signed int overflow (i.e. rather than wrap, it is allowed to saturate as a possible outcome), we have to use unsigned int as reference count. The sum over all CPUs when tx is complete will result in 0 again. The BUG_ON() in tpacket_destruct_skb() we can remove as well. It can _only_ be set from inside tpacket_snd() path and we made sure to increase tx_ring.pending in any case before we called po->xmit(skb). So testing for tx_ring.pending == 0 is not too useful. Instead, it would rather have been useful to test if lower layers didn't orphan the skb so that we're missing ring slots being put back to TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE. But such a bug will be caught in user space already as we end up realizing that we do not have any TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE slots left anymore. Therefore, we're all set. Btw, in case of RX_RING path, we do not make use of the pending member, therefore we also don't need to use up any percpu memory here. Also note that __alloc_percpu() already returns a zero-filled percpu area, so initialization is done already.

2014-01-17packet: don't unconditionally schedule() in case of MSG_DONTWAITDaniel Borkmann
In tpacket_snd(), when we've discovered a first frame that is not in status TP_STATUS_SEND_REQUEST, and return a NULL buffer, we exit the send routine in case of MSG_DONTWAIT, since we've finished traversing the mmaped send ring buffer and don't care about pending frames. While doing so, we still unconditionally call an expensive schedule() in the packet_current_frame() "error" path, which is unnecessary in this case since it's enough to just quit the function. Also, in case MSG_DONTWAIT is not set, we should rather test for need_resched() first and do schedule() only if necessary since meanwhile pending frames could already have finished processing and called skb destructor.

2014-01-17packet: improve socket create/bind latency in some casesDaniel Borkmann
Most people acquire PF_PACKET sockets with a protocol argument in the socket call, e.g. libpcap does so with htons(ETH_P_ALL) for all its sockets. Most likely, at some point in time a subsequent bind() call will follow, e.g. in libpcap with ... memset(&sll, 0, sizeof(sll)); sll.sll_family = AF_PACKET; sll.sll_ifindex = ifindex; sll.sll_protocol = htons(ETH_P_ALL); ... as arguments. What happens in the kernel is that already in socket() syscall, we install a proto hook via register_prot_hook() if our protocol argument is != 0. Yet, in bind() we're almost doing the same work by doing a unregister_prot_hook() with an expensive synchronize_net() call in case during socket() the proto was != 0, plus follow-up register_prot_hook() with a bound device to it this time, in order to limit traffic we get. In the case when the protocol and user supplied device index (== 0) does not change from socket() to bind(), we can spare us doing the same work twice. Similarly for re-binding to the same device and protocol. For these scenarios, we can decrease create/bind latency from ~7447us (sock-bind-2 case) to ~89us (sock-bind-1 case) with this patch. Alternatively, for the first case, if people care, they should simply create their sockets with proto == 0 argument and define the protocol during bind() as this saves a call to synchronize_net() as well (sock-bind-3 case). In all other cases, we're tied to user space behaviour we must not change, also since a bind() is not strictly required. Thus, we need the synchronize_net() to make sure no asynchronous packet processing paths still refer to the previous elements of po->prot_hook. In case of mmap()ed sockets, the workflow that includes bind() is socket() -> setsockopt(<ring>) -> bind(). In that case, a pair of {__unregister, register}_prot_hook is being called from setsockopt() in order to install the new protocol receive handler. Thus, when we call bind and can skip a re-hook, we have already previously installed the new handler. For fanout, this is handled different entirely, so we should be good. Timings on an i7-3520M machine: * sock-bind-1: 89 us * sock-bind-2: 7447 us * sock-bind-3: 75 us sock-bind-1: socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_IP)) = 3 bind(3, {sa_family=AF_PACKET, proto=htons(ETH_P_IP), if=all(0), pkttype=PACKET_HOST, addr(0)={0, }, 20) = 0 sock-bind-2: socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_IP)) = 3 bind(3, {sa_family=AF_PACKET, proto=htons(ETH_P_IP), if=lo(1), pkttype=PACKET_HOST, addr(0)={0, }, 20) = 0 sock-bind-3: socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0) = 3 bind(3, {sa_family=AF_PACKET, proto=htons(ETH_P_IP), if=lo(1), pkttype=PACKET_HOST, addr(0)={0, }, 20) = 0 Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-01-17net/ipv4: don't use module_init in non-modular gre_offloadPaul Gortmaker
Recent commit 438e38fadca2f6e57eeecc08326c8a95758594d4 ("gre_offload: statically build GRE offloading support") added new module_init/module_exit calls to the gre_offload.c file. The file is obj-y and can't be anything other than built-in. Currently it can never be built modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading. Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that would be a worse thing. We also make the inclusion explicit. Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall directly in this change means that the runtime impact is zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering. As for the module_exit, rather than replace it with __exitcall, we simply remove it, since it appears only UML does anything with those, and even for UML, there is no relevant cleanup to be done here.

2014-01-16net: eth_type_trans() should use skb_header_pointer()Eric Dumazet
eth_type_trans() can read uninitialized memory as drivers do not necessarily pull more than 14 bytes in skb->head before calling it. As David suggested, we can use skb_header_pointer() to fix this without breaking some drivers that might not expect eth_type_trans() pulling 2 additional bytes.
