2012-07-31ipv4: Properly purge netdev references on uncached routes.David S. Miller
When a device is unregistered, we have to purge all of the references to it that may exist in the entire system. If a route is uncached, we currently have no way of accomplishing this. So create a global list that is scanned when a network device goes down. This mirrors the logic in net/core/dst.c's dst_ifdown(). Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-31ipv4: percpu nh_rth_output cacheEric Dumazet
Input path is mostly run under RCU and doesnt touch dst refcnt But output path on forwarding or UDP workloads hits badly dst refcount, and we have lot of false sharing, for example in ipv4_mtu() when reading rt->rt_pmtu Using a percpu cache for nh_rth_output gives a nice performance increase at a small cost. 24 udpflood test on my 24 cpu machine (dummy0 output device) (each process sends 1.000.000 udp frames, 24 processes are started) before : 5.24 s after : 2.06 s For reference, time on linux-3.5 : 6.60 s Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Tested-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-31ipv4: Restore old dst_free() behavior.Eric Dumazet
commit 404e0a8b6a55 (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried to solve a race but added a problem at device/fib dismantle time : We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets still have dst in their cache. dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed. Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context. Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix) I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in this code.

2012-07-30net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcountsEric Dumazet
commit c6cffba4ffa2 (ipv4: Fix input route performance regression.) added various fatal races with dst refcounts. crashes happen on tcp workloads if routes are added/deleted at the same time. The dst_free() calls from free_fib_info_rcu() are clearly racy. We need instead regular dst refcounting (dst_release()) and make sure dst_release() is aware of RCU grace periods : Add DST_RCU_FREE flag so that dst_release() respects an RCU grace period before dst destruction for cached dst Introduce a new inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper, using atomic_inc_not_zero() to make sure we dont increase a zero refcount (On a dst currently waiting an rcu grace period before destruction) rt_cache_route() must take a reference on the new cached route, and release it if was not able to install it. With this patch, my machines survive various benchmarks. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-26ipv4: Fix input route performance regression.David S. Miller

2012-07-25ipv4: rt_cache_valid must check expired routesEric Dumazet
commit d2d68ba9fe8 (ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops.) introduced rt_cache_valid() helper. It unfortunately doesn't check if route is expired before caching it.

2012-07-23ipv4: Change rt->rt_iif encoding.David S. Miller
On input packet processing, rt->rt_iif will be zero if we should use skb->dev->ifindex. Since we access rt->rt_iif consistently via inet_iif(), that is the only spot whose interpretation have to adjust. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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>

2012-07-20ipv4: Kill rt->fiDavid S. Miller
It's not really needed. We only grabbed a reference to the fib_info for the sake of fib_info local metrics. However, fib_info objects are freed using RCU, as are therefore their private metrics (if any). We would have triggered a route cache flush if we eliminated a reference to a fib_info object in the routing tables. Therefore, any existing cached routes will first check and see that they have been invalidated before an errant reference to these metric values would occur. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-20ipv4: Turn rt->rt_route_iif into rt->rt_is_input.David S. Miller
That is this value's only use, as a boolean to indicate whether a route is an input route or not. So implement it that way, using a u16 gap present in the struct already. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Never actually used. It was being set on output routes to the original OIF specified in the flow key used for the lookup.

2012-07-20ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops.David S. Miller
Caching input routes is slightly simpler than output routes, since we don't need to be concerned with nexthop exceptions. (locally destined, and routed packets, never trigger PMTU events or redirects that will be processed by us). However, we have to elide caching for the DIRECTSRC and non-zero itag cases. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-07-20ipv4: Cache output routes in fib_info nexthops.David S. Miller
If we have an output route that lacks nexthop exceptions, we can cache it in the FIB info nexthop. Such routes will have DST_HOST cleared because such routes refer to a family of destinations, rather than just one. The sequence of the handling of exceptions during route lookup is adjusted to make the logic work properly. Before we allocate the route, we lookup the exception. Then we know if we will cache this route or not, and therefore whether DST_HOST should be set on the allocated route. Then we use DST_HOST to key off whether we should store the resulting route, during rt_set_nexthop(), in the FIB nexthop cache. With help from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-07-20ipv4: Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway.David S. Miller
In order to allow prefixed routes, we have to adjust how rt_gateway is set and interpreted. The new interpretation is: 1) rt_gateway == 0, destination is on-link, nexthop is iph->daddr 2) rt_gateway != 0, destination requires a nexthop gateway Abstract the fetching of the proper nexthop value using a new inline helper, rt_nexthop(), as suggested by Joe Perches.

2012-07-20ipv4: Delete routing cache.David S. Miller
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. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-17ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions.David S. Miller
In a regime where we have subnetted route entries, we need a way to store persistent storage about destination specific learned values such as redirects and PMTU values. This is implemented here via nexthop exceptions. The initial implementation is a 2048 entry hash table with relaiming starting at chain length 5. A more sophisticated scheme can be devised if that proves necessary. 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>
