* bonding: correctly process non-linear skbsAndy Gospodarek2010-09-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It was recently brought to my attention that 802.3ad mode bonds would no longer form when using some network hardware after a driver update. After snooping around I realized that the particular hardware was using page-based skbs and found that skb->data did not contain a valid LACPDU as it was not stored there. That explained the inability to form an 802.3ad-based bond. For balance-alb mode bonds this was also an issue as ARPs would not be properly processed. This patch fixes the issue in my tests and should be applied to 2.6.36 and as far back as anyone cares to add it to stable. Thanks to Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> and Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> for the suggestions on this one.

This has the side-effect of the packet handler being called against other, non RLB-enabled bonds, and a kernel oops results when it tries to dereference rx_hashtbl in rlb_update_entry_from_arp(), which won't be set for those bonds, e.g. active-backup. With the __netif_receive_skb() changes from: commit 1f3c8804acba841b5573b953f5560d2683d2db0d Author: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> Date: Mon Dec 14 10:48:58 2009 +0000 bonding: allow arp_ip_targets on separate vlans to use arp validation frames received on VLANs correctly make their way to the bond's handler, so we no longer need to wildcard the device. The oops can be reproduced by: modprobe bonding echo active-backup > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/mode echo 100 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/miimon ifconfig bond0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx echo +eth0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves echo +eth1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves echo +bond1 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters echo balance-alb > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/mode echo 100 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/miimon ifconfig bond1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx netmask xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx echo +eth2 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/slaves echo +eth3 > /sys/class/net/bond1/bonding/slaves Pass some traffic on bond0. Boom. [ Tested, behaves as advertised. I do not believe a test of the bonding mode is necessary, as there is no race between the packet handler and the bonding mode changing (the mode can only change when the device is closed).

* | bonding: change test for presence of VLANsJay Vosburgh2010-07-22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After commit ad1afb00393915a51c21b1ae8704562bf036855f ("vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)") it is now regular practice for a VLAN "add vid" for VLAN 0 to arrive prior to any VLAN registration or creation of a vlan_group. This patch updates the bonding code that tests for the presence of VLANs configured above bonding. The new logic tests for bond->vlgrp to determine if a registration has occured, instead of testing that bonding's internal vlan_list is empty. The old code would panic when vlan_list was not empty, but vlgrp was still NULL (because only an "add vid" for VLAN 0 had occured). Bonding still adds VLAN 0 to its internal list so that 802.1p frames are handled correctly on transmit when non-VLAN accelerated slaves are members of the bond. The test against bond->vlan_list remains in bond_dev_queue_xmit for this reason. Modification to the bond->vlgrp now occurs under lock (in addition to RTNL), because not all inspections of it occur under RTNL. Additionally, because 8021q will never issue a "kill vid" for VLAN 0, there is now logic in bond_uninit to release any remaining entries from vlan_list.

| * bonding: check if clients MAC addr has changedFlavio Leitner2010-06-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When two systems using bonding devices in adaptive load balancing (ALB) communicates with each other, an endless ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems. What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies updating this specific client. The same process happens on the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp replies. See more information including the relevant functions below: System 1 System 2 bond0 bond0 ping <system2> ARP request ---------> <--------- ARP reply +->rlb_arp_recv <---------------------+ <--- loop begins | rlb_update_entry_from_arp | | client_info->ntt = 1; | | bond_info->rx_ntt = 1; | | | | <communication succeed> | | | | bond_alb_monitor | | rlb_update_rx_clients | | rlb_update_client | | arp_create(ARPOP_REPLY) | | send ARP reply --------------> V | send ARP reply --------------> | rlb_arp_recv | rlb_update_entry_from_arp | client_info->ntt = 1; | bond_info->rx_ntt = 1; | < snipped, same as in system 1> +------- <-------------- send ARP reply <-------------- send ARP reply Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply poisoning the network. This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't change, there is no need to update neither to announce it later.

* netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-1Wang Chen2008-11-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have some reasons to kill netdev->priv: 1. netdev->priv is equal to netdev_priv(). 2. netdev_priv() wraps the calculation of netdev->priv's offset, obviously netdev_priv() is more flexible than netdev->priv. But we cann't kill netdev->priv, because so many drivers reference to it directly. This patch is a safe convert for netdev->priv to netdev_priv(netdev). Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read. But it is too big to be sent in one mail. I split it to 4 parts and make every part smaller than 100,000 bytes, which is max size allowed by vger.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A panic was discovered with bonding when using mode 5 or 6 and trying to remove the slaves from the bond after the interface was taken down. When calling 'ifconfig bond0 down' the following happens: bond_close() bond_alb_deinitialize() tlb_deinitialize() kfree(bond_info->tx_hashtbl) bond_info->tx_hashtbl = NULL Unfortunately if there are still slaves in the bond, when removing the module the following happens: bonding_exit() bond_free_all() bond_release_all() bond_alb_deinit_slave() tlb_clear_slave() tx_hash_table = BOND_ALB_INFO(bond).tx_hashtbl u32 next_index = tx_hash_table[index].next As you might guess we panic when trying to access a few entries into the table that no longer exists. I experimented with several options (like moving the calls to tlb_deinitialize somewhere else), but it really makes the most sense to be part of the bond_close routine. It also didn't seem logical move tlb_clear_slave around too much, so the simplest option seems to add a check in tlb_clear_slave to make sure we haven't already wiped the tx_hashtbl away before searching for all the non-existent hash-table entries that used to point to the slave as the output interface.

Some code path has no mechanism to signal errors upstream. 2. If there are multi slaves, it's hard to tell which slaves increment promisc/allmulti successfully and which failed.

* [SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_mac_header(skb)Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo2007-04-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | For the common, open coded 'skb->mac.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can later turn skb->mac.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in 64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit. This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more "complex" cases. Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* [PATCH] bonding: fix deadlock on high loads in bond_alb_monitor()Karsten Keil2006-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In bond_alb_monitor the bond->curr_slave_lock write lock is taken and then dev_set_promiscuity maybe called which can take some time, depending on the network HW. If a network IRQ for this card come in the softirq handler maybe try to deliver more packets which end up in a request to the read lock of bond->curr_slave_lock -> deadlock. This issue was found by a test lab during network stress tests, this patch disable the softirq handler for this case and solved the issue.

* [PATCH] bonding: UPDATED hash-table corruption in bond_alb.cJay Vosburgh2006-01-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I believe I see the race Michael refers to (tlb_choose_channel may set head, which tlb_init_slave clears), although I was not able to reproduce it. I have updated his patch for the current netdev-2.6.git tree and added a version update. His original comment follows: Our systems have been crashing during testing of PCI HotPlug support in the various networking components. We've faulted in the bonding driver due to a bug in bond_alb.c:tlb_clear_slave() In that routine, the last modification to the TLB hash table is made without protection of the lock, allowing a race that can lead tlb_choose_channel() to select an invalid table element. -J Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>
