| * net sched: fix race in mirred device removalstephen hemminger2010-07-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes hang when target device of mirred packet classifier action is removed. If a mirror or redirection action is configured to cause packets to go to another device, the classifier holds a ref count, but was assuming the adminstrator cleaned up all redirections before removing. The fix is to add a notifier and cleanup during unregister. The new list is implicitly protected by RTNL mutex because it is held during filter add/delete as well as notifier.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The reset_policy() does: memset(d->tcfd_defdata, 0, SIMP_MAX_DATA); strlcpy(d->tcfd_defdata, defdata, SIMP_MAX_DATA); In the original code, the size of d->tcfd_defdata wasn't fixed and if strlen(defdata) was less than 31, reset_policy() would cause memory corruption. Please Note: The original alloc_defdata() assumes defdata is 32 characters and a NUL terminator while reset_policy() assumes defdata is 31 characters and a NUL. This patch updates alloc_defdata() to match reset_policy() (ie a shorter string). I'm not very familiar with this code so please review carefully.

| * Clear IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE for teql interfacesTom Hughes2010-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16183 The sch_teql module, which can be used to load balance over a set of underlying interfaces, stopped working after 2.6.30 and has been broken in all kernels since then for any underlying interface which requires the addition of link level headers. The problem is that the transmit routine relies on being able to access the destination address in the skb in order to do address resolution once it has decided which underlying interface it is going to transmit through. In 2.6.31 the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE flag was introduced, and set by default for all interfaces, which causes the destination address to be released before the transmit routine for the interface is called. The solution is to clear that flag for teql interfaces. Signed-off-by: Tom Hughes <tom@compton.nu> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* | net: add additional lock to qdisc to increase throughputEric Dumazet2010-06-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When many cpus compete for sending frames on a given qdisc, the qdisc spinlock suffers from very high contention. The cpu owning __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit has same priority to acquire the lock, and cannot dequeue packets fast enough, since it must wait for this lock for each dequeued packet. One solution to this problem is to force all cpus spinning on a second lock before trying to get the main lock, when/if they see __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING already set. The owning cpu then compete with at most one other cpu for the main lock, allowing for higher dequeueing rate. Based on a previous patch from Alexander Duyck. I added the heuristic to avoid the atomic in fast path, and put the new lock far away from the cache line used by the dequeue worker. Also try to release the busylock lock as late as possible. Tests with following script gave a boost from ~50.000 pps to ~600.000 pps on a dual quad core machine (E5450 @3.00GHz), tg3 driver.

* | arp_notify: allow drivers to explicitly request a notification event.Ian Campbell2010-05-31
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently such notifications are only generated when the device comes up or the address changes. However one use case for these notifications is to enable faster network recovery after a virtual machine migration (by causing switches to relearn their MAC tables). A migration appears to the network stack as a temporary loss of carrier and therefore does not trigger either of the current conditions. Rather than adding carrier up as a trigger (which can cause issues when interfaces a flapping) simply add an interface which the driver can use to explicitly trigger the notification.

* cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sockHerbert Xu2010-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Up until now cls_cgroup has relied on fetching the classid out of the current executing thread. This runs into trouble when a packet processing is delayed in which case it may execute out of another thread's context. Furthermore, even when a packet is not delayed we may fail to classify it if soft IRQs have been disabled, because this scenario is indistinguishable from one where a packet unrelated to the current thread is processed by a real soft IRQ. In fact, the current semantics is inherently broken, as a single skb may be constructed out of the writes of two different tasks. A different manifestation of this problem is when the TCP stack transmits in response of an incoming ACK. This is currently unclassified. As we already have a concept of packet ownership for accounting purposes in the skb->sk pointer, this is a natural place to store the classid in a persistent manner. This patch adds the cls_cgroup classid in struct sock, filling up an existing hole on 64-bit :) The value is set at socket creation time. So all sockets created via socket(2) automatically gains the ID of the thread creating it. Whenever another process touches the socket by either reading or writing to it, we will change the socket classid to that of the process if it has a valid (non-zero) classid. For sockets created on inbound connections through accept(2), we inherit the classid of the original listening socket through sk_clone, possibly preceding the actual accept(2) call. In order to minimise risks, I have not made this the authoritative classid. For now it is only used as a backup when we execute with soft IRQs disabled. Once we're completely happy with its semantics we can use it as the sole classid. Footnote: I have rearranged the error path on cls_group module creation. If we didn't do this, then there is a window where someone could create a tc rule using cls_group before the cgroup subsystem has been registered.

New skb_dst_set_noref() helper to set an notrefcounted dst on a skb. (with lockdep check) skb_dst_drop() drops a reference only if skb dst was refcounted. skb_dst_force() helper is used to force a refcount on dst, when skb is queued and not anymore RCU protected. Use skb_dst_force() in __sk_add_backlog(), __dev_xmit_skb() if !IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE or skb enqueued on qdisc queue, in sock_queue_rcv_skb(), in __nf_queue(). Use skb_dst_force() in dev_requeue_skb(). Note: dst_use_noref() still dirties dst, we might transform it later to do one dirtying per jiffies.

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.

The cgroup_subsys struct is moved around a bit to allow the subsys_id to be either declared as a compile-time constant by the cgroup_subsys.h include in cgroup.h, or, if it's a module, initialized within the struct by cgroup_load_subsys.

| * | gen_estimator: deadlock fixEric Dumazet2010-04-01

After some analysis, I believe we have a potential use after free case in est_timer() : spin_lock(e->stats_lock); << HERE >> read_lock(&est_lock); if (e->bstats == NULL) << TEST >> goto skip; Test is done a bit late, because after estimator is killed, and before rcu grace period elapsed, we might already have freed/reuse memory where e->stats_locks points to (some qdisc->q.lock) A possible fix is to respect a rcu grace period at Qdisc dismantle time. On 64bit, sizeof(struct Qdisc) is exactly 192 bytes. Adding 16 bytes to it (for struct rcu_head) is a problem because it might change performance, given QDISC_ALIGNTO is 32 bytes. This is why I also change QDISC_ALIGNTO to 64 bytes, to satisfy most current alignment requirements. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
