| * TPROXY: supply a struct flowi->flags argument in inet_sk_rebuild_header()Balazs Scheidler2008-11-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | inet_sk_rebuild_header() does a new route lookup if the dst_entry associated with a socket becomes stale. However inet_sk_rebuild_header() didn't use struct flowi->flags, causing the route lookup to fail for foreign-bound IP_TRANSPARENT sockets, causing an error state to be set for the sockets in question.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | udp_sendmsg() didn't fill struct flowi->flags, which means that the route lookup would fail for non-local IPs even if the IP_TRANSPARENT sockopt was set. This prevents sendto() to work properly for UDP sockets, whereas bind(foreign-ip) + connect() + send() worked fine. Signed-off-by: Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * net: fix ip_mr_init() error pathBenjamin Thery2008-11-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similarly to IPv6 ip6_mr_init() (fixed last week), the order of cleanup operations in the error/exit section of ip_mr_init() is completely inversed. It should be the other way around. Also a del_timer() is missing in the error path. I should have guessed last week that this same error existed in ipmr.c too, as ip6mr.c is largely inspired by ipmr.c. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Thery <benjamin.thery@bull.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch prepares RCU migration of listening_hash table for TCP/DCCP protocols. listening_hash table being small (32 slots per protocol), we add a spinlock for each slot, instead of a single rwlock for whole table.

| * tcp_htcp: last_cong bug fixDoug Leith2008-11-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a minor bug in tcp_htcp.c which has been highlighted by Lachlan Andrew and Lawrence Stewart. Currently, the time since the last congestion event, which is stored in variable last_cong, is reset whenever there is a state change into TCP_CA_Open. This includes transitions of the type TCP_CA_Open->TCP_CA_Disorder->TCP_CA_Open which are not associated with backoff of cwnd. The patch changes last_cong to be updated only on transitions into TCP_CA_Open that occur after experiencing the congestion-related states TCP_CA_Loss, TCP_CA_Recovery, TCP_CA_CWR.

* | net: Convert TCP & DCCP hash tables to use RCU / hlist_nullsEric Dumazet2008-11-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | RCU was added to UDP lookups, using a fast infrastructure : - sockets kmem_cache use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and dont pay the price of call_rcu() at freeing time. - hlist_nulls permits to use few memory barriers. This patch uses same infrastructure for TCP/DCCP established and timewait sockets. Thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, no slowdown for applications using short lived TCP connections. A followup patch, converting rwlocks to spinlocks will even speedup this case. __inet_lookup_established() is pretty fast now we dont have to dirty a contended cache line (read_lock/read_unlock) Only established and timewait hashtable are converted to RCU (bind table and listen table are still using traditional locking) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

"If the socket is moved from one list to another list in-between the time the hash is calculated and the next field is accessed, and the socket has moved to the end of the new list, the traversal will not complete properly on the list it should have, since the socket will be on the end of the new list and there's not a way to tell it's on a new list and restart the list traversal.

* | udp: RCU handling for Unicast packets.Eric Dumazet2008-10-29

Note: Multicasts and broadcasts still will need to take a lock, because doing a full lockless lookup in this case is difficult. 2) No expensive operations in the socket bind/unhash phases : - No expensive synchronize_rcu() calls. - No added rcu_head in socket structure, increasing memory needs, but more important, forcing us to use call_rcu() calls, that have the bad property of making sockets structure cold. (rcu grace period between socket freeing and its potential reuse make this socket being cold in CPU cache). David did a previous patch using call_rcu() and noticed a 20% impact on TCP connection rates. Quoting Cristopher Lameter : "Right. That results in cacheline cooldown. You'd want to recycle the object as they are cache hot on a per cpu basis. That is screwed up by the delayed regular rcu processing. We have seen multiple regressions due to cacheline cooldown. The only choice in cacheline hot sensitive areas is to deal with the complexity that comes with SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU or give up on RCU." - Because udp sockets are allocated from dedicated kmem_cache, use of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU can help here. Theory of operation : --------------------- As the lookup is lockfree (using rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock()), special attention must be taken by readers and writers. Use of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is tricky too, because a socket can be freed, reused, inserted in a different chain or in worst case in the same chain while readers could do lookups in the same time. In order to avoid loops, a reader must check each socket found in a chain really belongs to the chain the reader was traversing. If it finds a mismatch, lookup must start again at the begining. This *restart* loop is the reason we had to use rdlock for the multicast case, because we dont want to send same message several times to the same socket. We use RCU only for fast path. Thus, /proc/net/udp still takes spinlocks. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | udp: introduce struct udp_table and multiple spinlocksEric Dumazet2008-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | UDP sockets are hashed in a 128 slots hash table. This hash table is protected by *one* rwlock. This rwlock is readlocked each time an incoming UDP message is handled. This rwlock is writelocked each time a socket must be inserted in hash table (bind time), or deleted from this table (close time) This is not scalable on SMP machines : 1) Even in read mode, lock() and unlock() are atomic operations and must dirty a contended cache line, shared by all cpus. 2) A writer might be starved if many readers are 'in flight'. This can happen on a machine with some NIC receiving many UDP messages. User process can be delayed a long time at socket creation/dismantle time. This patch prepares RCU migration, by introducing 'struct udp_table and struct udp_hslot', and using one spinlock per chain, to reduce contention on central rwlock. Introducing one spinlock per chain reduces latencies, for port randomization on heavily loaded UDP servers. This also speedup bindings to specific ports. udp_lib_unhash() was uninlined, becoming to big.
