netlink: Reset portid after netlink_insert failure

2015-05-16T21:08:57+00:00

The commit c5adde9468b0714a051eac7f9666f23eb10b61f7 ("netlink:
eliminate nl_sk_hash_lock") breaks the autobind retry mechanism
because it doesn't reset portid after a failed netlink_insert.

This means that should autobind fail the first time around, then
the socket will be stuck in limbo as it can never be bound again
since it already has a non-zero portid.

netlink: move nl_table in read_mostly section

2015-05-14T21:49:06+00:00

netlink sockets creation and deletion heavily modify nl_table_users
and nl_table_lock.

If nl_table is sharing one cache line with one of them, netlink
performance is really bad on SMP.

ffffffff81ff5f00 B nl_table
ffffffff81ff5f0c b nl_table_users

Putting nl_table in read_mostly section increased performance
of my open/delete netlink sockets test by about 80 %

This came up while diagnosing a getaddrinfo() problem.

netlink: Remove max_size setting

2015-05-04T03:27:02+00:00

We currently limit the hash table size to 64K which is very bad
as even 10 years ago it was relatively easy to generate millions
of sockets.

Since the hash table is naturally limited by memory allocation
failure, we don't really need an explicit limit so this patch
removes it.

net: fix crash in build_skb()

2015-04-25T19:49:49+00:00

When I added pfmemalloc support in build_skb(), I forgot netlink
was using build_skb() with a vmalloc() area.

In this patch I introduce __build_skb() for netlink use,
and build_skb() is a wrapper handling both skb->head_frag and
skb->pfmemalloc

This means netlink no longer has to hack skb->head_frag

rhashtable: provide len to obj_hashfn

2015-03-25T16:18:33+00:00

nftables sets will be converted to use so called setextensions, moving
the key to a non-fixed position. To hash it, the obj_hashfn must be used,
however it so far doesn't receive the length parameter.

Pass the key length to obj_hashfn() and convert existing users.

netlink: Use default rhashtable hashfn

2015-03-24T02:07:51+00:00

This patch removes the explicit jhash value for the hashfn parameter
of rhashtable.  As the key length is a multiple of 4, this means that
we will actually end up using jhash2.

netlink_compare_arg_len from the offset of portid and then adds 4

netlink: Move namespace into hash key

2015-03-20T20:16:24+00:00

Currently the name space is a de facto key because it has to match
before we find an object in the hash table.  However, it isn't in
the hash value so all objects from different name spaces with the
same port ID hash to the same bucket.

This is bad as the number of name spaces is unbounded.

This patch fixes this by using the namespace when doing the hash.

Because the namespace field doesn't lie next to the portid field
in the netlink socket, this patch switches over to the rhashtable
interface without a fixed key.

This patch also uses the new inlined rhashtable interface where
possible.
