* net: remove unused 'dev' argument from netif_needs_gso()Johannes Berg2015-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In commit 04ffcb255f22 ("net: Add ndo_gso_check") Tom originally added the 'dev' argument to be able to call ndo_gso_check(). Then later, when generalizing this in commit 5f35227ea34b ("net: Generalize ndo_gso_check to ndo_features_check") Jesse removed the call to ndo_gso_check() in netif_needs_gso() by calling the new ndo_features_check() in a different place.

* netfilter: Pass socket pointer down through okfn().David Miller2015-04-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two socket contexts. First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that generated the frame. And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP. We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting. The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device. We hit code paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4 socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a networking device is taken down that has a non-trivial number of VLAN devices configured under it, we eat a full synchronize_net() for every such VLAN device. This is because of the call chain: NETDEV_DOWN notifier --> vlan_device_event() --> dev_change_flags() --> __dev_change_flags() --> __dev_close() --> __dev_close_many() --> dev_deactivate_many() --> synchronize_net() This is kind of rediculous because we already have infrastructure for batching doing operation X to a list of net devices so that we only incur one sync. So make use of that by exporting dev_close_many() and adjusting it's interfaace so that the caller can fully manage the batch list. Use this in vlan_device_event() and all the overhead goes away.

* net: Clarify meaning of CHECKSUM_PARTIAL for receive pathTom Herbert2015-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current meaning of CHECKSUM_PARTIAL for validating checksums is that _all_ checksums in the packet are considered valid. However, in the manner that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is set only the checksum at csum_start+csum_offset and any preceding checksums may be considered valid. If there are checksums in the packet after csum_offset it is possible they have not been verfied. This patch changes CHECKSUM_PARTIAL logic in skb_csum_unnecessary and __skb_gro_checksum_validate_needed to only considered checksums referring to csum_start and any preceding checksums (with starting offset before csum_start) to be verified.

* net: Fix remcsum in GRO path to not change packetTom Herbert2015-02-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remote checksum offload processing is currently the same for both the GRO and non-GRO path. When the remote checksum offload option is encountered, the checksum field referred to is modified in the packet. So in the GRO case, the packet is modified in the GRO path and then the operation is skipped when the packet goes through the normal path based on skb->remcsum_offload. There is a problem in that the packet may be modified in the GRO path, but then forwarded off host still containing the remote checksum option. A remote host will again perform RCO but now the checksum verification will fail since GRO RCO already modified the checksum. To fix this, we ensure that GRO restores a packet to it's original state before returning. In this model, when GRO processes a remote checksum option it still changes the checksum per the algorithm but on return from lower layer processing the checksum is restored to its original value. In this patch we add define gro_remcsum structure which is passed to skb_gro_remcsum_process to save offset and delta for the checksum being changed. After lower layer processing, skb_gro_remcsum_cleanup is called to restore the checksum before returning from GRO. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: rfs: add hash collision detectionEric Dumazet2015-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Receive Flow Steering is a nice solution but suffers from hash collisions when a mix of connected and unconnected traffic is received on the host, when flow hash table is populated. Also, clearing flow in inet_release() makes RFS not very good for short lived flows, as many packets can follow close(). (FIN , ACK packets, ...) This patch extends the information stored into global hash table to not only include cpu number, but upper part of the hash value. I use a 32bit value, and dynamically split it in two parts. For host with less than 64 possible cpus, this gives 6 bits for the cpu number, and 26 (32-6) bits for the upper part of the hash. Since hash bucket selection use low order bits of the hash, we have a full hash match, if /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries is big enough. If the hash found in flow table does not match, we fallback to RPS (if it is enabled for the rxqueue). This means that a packet for an non connected flow can avoid the IPI through a unrelated/victim CPU. This also means we no longer have to clear the table at socket close time, and this helps short lived flows performance.

* | udp: pass udp_offload struct to UDP gro callbacksTom Herbert2015-01-14
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces udp_offload_callbacks which has the same GRO functions (but not a GSO function) as offload_callbacks, except there is an argument to a udp_offload struct passed to gro_receive and gro_complete functions. This additional argument can be used to retrieve the per port structure of the encapsulation for use in gro processing (mostly by doing container_of on the structure).

* net: Generalize ndo_gso_check to ndo_features_checkJesse Gross2014-12-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GSO isn't the only offload feature with restrictions that potentially can't be expressed with the current features mechanism. Checksum is another although it's a general issue that could in theory apply to anything. Even if it may be possible to implement these restrictions in other ways, it can result in duplicate code or inefficient per-packet behavior. This generalizes ndo_gso_check so that drivers can remove any features that don't make sense for a given packet, similar to netif_skb_features(). It also converts existing driver restrictions to the new format, completing the work that was done to support tunnel protocols since the issues apply to checksums as well. By actually removing features from the set that are used to do offloading, it solves another problem with the existing interface. In these cases, GSO would run with the original set of features and not do anything because it appears that segmentation is not required.

* net: introduce generic switch devices supportJiri Pirko2014-12-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The goal of this is to provide a possibility to support various switch chips. Drivers should implement relevant ndos to do so. Now there is only one ndo defined: - for getting physical switch id is in place. Note that user can use random port netdevice to access the switch.
