| * ipv4/route.c: respect prefsrc for local routesJoel Sing2011-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The preferred source address is currently ignored for local routes, which results in all local connections having a src address that is the same as the local dst address. Fix this by respecting the preferred source address when it is provided for local routes. This bug can be demonstrated as follows: # ifconfig dummy0 192.168.0.1 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 192.168.0.1 # ip route change table local local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 \ proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 We now establish a local connection and verify the source IP address selection: # nc -l 192.168.0.1 3128 & # nc 192.168.0.1 3128 & # netstat -ant | grep 192.168.0.1:3128.*EST tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:3128 192.168.0.1:33228 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 192.168.0.1:33228 192.168.0.1:3128 ESTABLISHED Signed-off-by: Joel Sing <jsing@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* | net: Abstract default MTU metric calculation behind an accessor.David S. Miller2010-12-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Like RTAX_ADVMSS, make the default calculation go through a dst_ops method rather than caching the computation in the routing cache entries. Now dst metrics are pretty much left as-is when new entries are created, thus optimizing metric sharing becomes a real possibility. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor.David S. Miller2010-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function, dst_metric_advmss(). Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot, and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops AF specific callback. For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which preserves existing behavior. Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates advmss on pmtu updates. This inconsistency in advmss handling results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric.David S. Miller2010-12-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6. This allowed several simplifications: 1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer userd. 2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in routing cache metrics any longer. 3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and therefore can be marked static. When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago, the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around so kill that off too. We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has a back dependency on net/route.h Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use helper functions to hide all direct accesses, especially writes, to dst_entry metrics values. This will allow us to: 1) More easily change how the metrics are stored. 2) Implement COW for metrics. In particular this will help us put metrics into the inetpeer cache if that is what we end up doing. We can make the _metrics member a pointer instead of an array, initially have it point at the read-only metrics in the FIB, and then on the first set grab an inetpeer entry and point the _metrics member there.

* | net: get rid of rtable->idevEric Dumazet2010-11-11
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems idev field in struct rtable has no special purpose, but adding extra atomic ops. We hold refcounts on the device itself (using percpu data, so pretty cheap in current kernel). infiniband case is solved using dst.dev instead of idev->dev Removal of this field means routing without route cache is now using shared data, percpu data, and only potential contention is a pair of atomic ops on struct neighbour per forwarded packet. About 5% speedup on routing test.

* net: avoid RCU for NOCACHE dstEric Dumazet2010-10-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is no point using RCU for dst we allocate for a very short time (used once). Change dst_release() to take DST_NOCACHE into account, but also change skb_dst_set_noref() to force a refcount increment for such dst. This is a _huge_ gain, because we dont waste memory to store xx thousand of dsts. Instead of queueing them to RCU, we can free them instantly. CPU caches can stay hot, re-using same memory blocks to hold temporary dsts. Note : remove unneeded smp_mb__before_atomic_dec(); in dst_release(), since atomic_dec_return() implies a full memory barrier.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Commit "fib: RCU conversion of fib_lookup()" removed rcu_read_lock() from __mkroute_output but left a couple of calls to rcu_read_unlock() in there.

When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test()) But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock. Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not inserted in route cache.

* inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structuresEric Dumazet2010-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches. Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes. This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields, that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer. rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing. Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while. We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation.

* ipv4: remove ip_rt_secret timer (v4)Neil Horman2010-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | A while back there was a discussion regarding the rt_secret_interval timer. Given that we've had the ability to do emergency route cache rebuilds for awhile now, based on a statistical analysis of the various hash chain lengths in the cache, the use of the flush timer is somewhat redundant. This patch removes the rt_secret_interval sysctl, allowing us to rely solely on the statistical analysis mechanism to determine the need for route cache flushes.

* include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* ipv4: Don't drop redirected route cache entry unless PTMU actually expiredGuenter Roeck2010-03-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP sessions over IPv4 can get stuck if routers between endpoints do not fragment packets but implement PMTU instead, and we are using those routers because of an ICMP redirect. Setup is as follows MTU1 MTU2 MTU1 A--------B------C------D with MTU1 > MTU2. A and D are endpoints, B and C are routers. B and C implement PMTU and drop packets larger than MTU2 (for example because DF is set on all packets). TCP sessions are initiated between A and D. There is packet loss between A and D, causing frequent TCP retransmits. After the number of retransmits on a TCP session reaches tcp_retries1, tcp calls dst_negative_advice() prior to each retransmit. This results in route cache entries for the peer to be deleted in ipv4_negative_advice() if the Path MTU is set. If the outstanding data on an affected TCP session is larger than MTU2, packets sent from the endpoints will be dropped by B or C, and ICMP NEEDFRAG will be returned. A and D receive NEEDFRAG messages and update PMTU. Before the next retransmit, tcp will again call dst_negative_advice(), causing the route cache entry (with correct PMTU) to be deleted. The retransmitted packet will be larger than MTU2, causing it to be dropped again. This sequence repeats until the TCP session aborts or is terminated. Problem is fixed by removing redirected route cache entries in ipv4_negative_advice() only if the PMTU is expired. Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <guenter.roeck@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ipv4: check rt_genid in dst_checkTimo Teräs2010-03-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Xfrm_dst keeps a reference to ipv4 rtable entries on each cached bundle. The only way to renew xfrm_dst when the underlying route has changed, is to implement dst_check for this. This is what ipv6 side does too. The problems started after 87c1e12b5eeb7b30b4b41291bef8e0b41fc3dde9 ("ipsec: Fix bogus bundle flowi") which fixed a bug causing xfrm_dst to not get reused, until that all lookups always generated new xfrm_dst with new route reference and path mtu worked. But after the fix, the old routes started to get reused even after they were expired causing pmtu to break (well it would occationally work if the rtable gc had run recently and marked the route obsolete causing dst_check to get called).

* net: fix route cache rebuildsEric Dumazet2010-03-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We added an automatic route cache rebuilding in commit 1080d709fb9d8cd43 but had to correct few bugs. One of the assumption of original patch, was that entries where kept sorted in a given way. This assumption is known to be wrong (commit 1ddbcb005c395518 gave an explanation of this and corrected a leak) and expensive to respect. Paweł Staszewski reported to me one of his machine got its routing cache disabled after few messages like : [ 2677.850065] Route hash chain too long! [ 2677.850080] Adjust your secret_interval! [82839.662993] Route hash chain too long! [82839.662996] Adjust your secret_interval! [155843.731650] Route hash chain too long! [155843.731664] Adjust your secret_interval! [155843.811881] Route hash chain too long! [155843.811891] Adjust your secret_interval! [155843.858209] vlan0811: 5 rebuilds is over limit, route caching disabled [155843.858212] Route hash chain too long! [155843.858213] Adjust your secret_interval! This is because rt_intern_hash() might be fooled when computing a chain length, because multiple entries with same keys can differ because of TOS (or mark/oif) bits. In the rare case the fast algorithm see a too long chain, and before taking expensive path, we call a helper function in order to not count duplicates of same routes, that only differ with tos/mark/oif bits. This helper works with data already in cpu cache and is not be very expensive, despite its O(N^2) implementation. Paweł Staszewski sucessfully tested this patch on his loaded router.
