* SL*B: drop kmem cache argument from constructorAlexey Dobriyan2008-07-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kmem cache passed to constructor is only needed for constructors that are themselves multiplexeres. Nobody uses this "feature", nor does anybody uses passed kmem cache in non-trivial way, so pass only pointer to object. Non-trivial places are: arch/powerpc/mm/init_64.c arch/powerpc/mm/hugetlbpage.c This is flag day, yes.

* flag parameters: NONBLOCK in socket and socketpairUlrich Drepper2008-07-24

To do this the internal function sock_attach_fd gets an additional parameter which it uses to set the appropriate flag for the file descriptor. Given that in modern, scalable programs almost all socket connections are non-blocking and the minimal additional cost for the new functionality I see no reason not to add this code. The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #include <fcntl.h> #include <pthread.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #ifndef __NR_paccept # ifdef __x86_64__ # define __NR_paccept 288 # elif defined __i386__ # define SYS_PACCEPT 18 # define USE_SOCKETCALL 1 # else # error "need __NR_paccept" # endif #endif #ifdef USE_SOCKETCALL # define paccept(fd, addr, addrlen, mask, flags) \ ({ long args[6] = { \ (long) fd, (long) addr, (long) addrlen, (long) mask, 8, (long) flags }; \ syscall (__NR_socketcall, SYS_PACCEPT, args); }) #else # define paccept(fd, addr, addrlen, mask, flags) \ syscall (__NR_paccept, fd, addr, addrlen, mask, 8, flags) #endif #define PORT 57392 #define SOCK_NONBLOCK O_NONBLOCK static pthread_barrier_t b; static void * tf (void *arg) { pthread_barrier_wait (&b); int s = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); struct sockaddr_in sin; sin.sin_family = AF_INET; sin.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl (INADDR_LOOPBACK); sin.sin_port = htons (PORT); connect (s, (const struct sockaddr *) &sin, sizeof (sin)); close (s); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); s = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); sin.sin_port = htons (PORT); connect (s, (const struct sockaddr *) &sin, sizeof (sin)); close (s); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); return NULL; } int main (void) { int fd; fd = socket (PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (fd == -1) { puts ("socket(0) failed"); return 1; } int fl = fcntl (fd, F_GETFL); if (fl == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (fl & O_NONBLOCK) { puts ("socket(0) set non-blocking mode"); return 1; } close (fd); fd = socket (PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_NONBLOCK, 0); if (fd == -1) { puts ("socket(SOCK_NONBLOCK) failed"); return 1; } fl = fcntl (fd, F_GETFL); if (fl == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((fl & O_NONBLOCK) == 0) { puts ("socket(SOCK_NONBLOCK) does not set non-blocking mode"); return 1; } close (fd); int fds[2]; if (socketpair (PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, fds) == -1) { puts ("socketpair(0) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { fl = fcntl (fds[i], F_GETFL); if (fl == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if (fl & O_NONBLOCK) { printf ("socketpair(0) set non-blocking mode for fds[%d]\n", i); return 1; } close (fds[i]); } if (socketpair (PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM|SOCK_NONBLOCK, 0, fds) == -1) { puts ("socketpair(SOCK_NONBLOCK) failed"); return 1; } for (int i = 0; i < 2; ++i) { fl = fcntl (fds[i], F_GETFL); if (fl == -1) { puts ("fcntl failed"); return 1; } if ((fl & O_NONBLOCK) == 0) { printf ("socketpair(SOCK_NONBLOCK) does not set non-blocking mode for fds[%d]\n", i); return 1; } close (fds[i]); } pthread_barrier_init (&b, NULL, 2); struct sockaddr_in sin; pthread_t th; if (pthread_create (&th, NULL, tf, NULL) != 0) { puts ("pthread_create failed"); return 1; } int s = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); int reuse = 1; setsockopt (s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, &reuse, sizeof (reuse)); sin.sin_family = AF_INET; sin.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl (INADDR_LOOPBACK); sin.sin_port = htons (PORT); bind (s, (struct sockaddr *) &sin, sizeof (sin)); listen (s, SOMAXCONN); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); int s2 = paccept (s, NULL, 0, NULL, 0); if (s2 < 0) { puts ("paccept(0) failed"); return 1; } fl = fcntl (s2, F_GETFL); if (fl & O_NONBLOCK) { puts ("paccept(0) set non-blocking mode"); return 1; } close (s2); close (s); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); s = socket (AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); sin.sin_port = htons (PORT); setsockopt (s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, &reuse, sizeof (reuse)); bind (s, (struct sockaddr *) &sin, sizeof (sin)); listen (s, SOMAXCONN); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); s2 = paccept (s, NULL, 0, NULL, SOCK_NONBLOCK); if (s2 < 0) { puts ("paccept(SOCK_NONBLOCK) failed"); return 1; } fl = fcntl (s2, F_GETFL); if ((fl & O_NONBLOCK) == 0) { puts ("paccept(SOCK_NONBLOCK) does not set non-blocking mode"); return 1; } close (s2); close (s); pthread_barrier_wait (&b); puts ("OK"); return 0; } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Signed-off-by: Ulrich Drepper <drepper@redhat.com> Acked-by: Davide Libenzi <davidel@xmailserver.org> Cc: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@googlemail.com> Cc: "David S.

* flag parameters: paccept w/out set_restore_sigmaskUlrich Drepper2008-07-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some platforms do not have support to restore the signal mask in the return path from a syscall. For those platforms syscalls like pselect are not defined at all. This is, I think, not a good choice for paccept() since paccept() adds more value on top of accept() than just the signal mask handling. Therefore this patch defines a scaled down version of the sys_paccept function for those platforms. It returns -EINVAL in case the signal mask is non-NULL but behaves the same otherwise. Note that I explicitly included <linux/thread_info.h>. I saw that it is currently included but indirectly two levels down. There is too much risk in relying on this. The header might change and then suddenly the function definition would change without anyone immediately noticing.

It adds a new syscall paccept. This syscall differs from accept in that it adds (at the userlevel) two additional parameters: - a signal mask - a flags value The flags parameter can be used to set flag like SOCK_CLOEXEC. This is imlpemented here as well. Some people argued that this is a property which should be inherited from the file desriptor for the server but this is against POSIX. Additionally, we really want the signal mask parameter as well (similar to pselect, ppoll, etc). So an interface change in inevitable. The flag value is the same as for socket and socketpair. I think diverging here will only create confusion. Similar to the filesystem interfaces where the use of the O_* constants differs, it is acceptable here. The signal mask is handled as for pselect etc. The mask is temporarily installed for the thread and removed before the call returns. I modeled the code after pselect. If there is a problem it's likely also in pselect. For architectures which use socketcall I maintained this interface instead of adding a system call. The symmetry shouldn't be broken.

* r/o bind mounts: filesystem helpers for custom 'struct file'sDave Hansen2007-10-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Why do we need r/o bind mounts? This feature allows a read-only view into a read-write filesystem. In the process of doing that, it also provides infrastructure for keeping track of the number of writers to any given mount. This has a number of uses. It allows chroots to have parts of filesystems writable. It will be useful for containers in the future because users may have root inside a container, but should not be allowed to write to somefilesystems. This also replaces patches that vserver has had out of the tree for several years. It allows security enhancement by making sure that parts of your filesystem read-only (such as when you don't trust your FTP server), when you don't want to have entire new filesystems mounted, or when you want atime selectively updated. I've been using the following script to test that the feature is working as desired. It takes a directory and makes a regular bind and a r/o bind mount of it. It then performs some normal filesystem operations on the three directories, including ones that are expected to fail, like creating a file on the r/o mount. This patch: Some filesystems forego the vfs and may_open() and create their own 'struct file's. This patch creates a couple of helper functions which can be used by these filesystems, and will provide a unified place which the r/o bind mount code may patch. Also, rename an existing, static-scope init_file() to a less generic name.

* [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

* [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.Eric W. Biederman2007-10-10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting. By virtue of this all socket create methods are touched. In addition the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace. Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe. Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the exotic protocols are supported. Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

* [NET]: Zero length write() on socket should not simply return 0.David S. Miller2007-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This fixes kernel bugzilla #5731 It should generate an empty packet for datagram protocols when the socket is connected, for one. The check is doubly-wrong because all that a write() can be is a sendmsg() call with a NULL msg_control and a single entry iovec. No special semantics should be assigned to it, therefore the zero length check should be removed entirely. This matches the behavior of BSD and several other systems. Alan Cox notes that SuSv3 says the behavior of a zero length write on non-files is "unspecified", but that's kind of useless since BSD has defined this behavior for a quarter century and BSD is essentially what application folks code to.

The patch is once again pretty minimal, it introduces a new flag for recvmsg and passes it just like the existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag. I think this bit is not used otherwise but the networking people will know better. This new flag is not recognized by recvfrom and recv. These functions cannot be used for that purpose and the asymmetry this introduces is not worse than the already existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT situations. The patch must be applied on the patch which introduced O_CLOEXEC. It has to remove static from the new get_unused_fd_flags function but since scm.c cannot live in a module the function still hasn't to be exported. Here's a test program to make sure the code works.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Introduces a new method in 'struct dentry_operations'. This method called d_dname() might be called from d_path() to build a pathname for special filesystems. It is called without locks. Future patches (if we succeed in having one common dentry for all pipes/sockets) may need to change prototype of this method, but we now use : char *d_dname(struct dentry *dentry, char *buffer, int buflen); 2) Adds a dynamic_dname() helper function that eases d_dname() implementations 3) Defines d_dname method for sockets : No more sprintf() at socket creation. This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to /proc/pid/fd/... 4) Defines d_dname method for pipes : No more sprintf() at pipe creation. This is delayed up to the moment someone does an access to /proc/pid/fd/...

* slab allocators: Remove SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL flagChristoph Lameter2007-05-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by SLAB. I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is performed before each freeing of an object. I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually before the free. That also places the check near the code object manipulation of the object. Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree). There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors. This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for unimplemented flags from SLUB.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that network timestamps use ktime_t infrastructure, we can add a new SOL_SOCKET sockopt SO_TIMESTAMPNS. This command is similar to SO_TIMESTAMP, but permits transmission of a 'timespec struct' instead of a 'timeval struct' control message. (nanosecond resolution instead of microsecond) Control message is labelled SCM_TIMESTAMPNS instead of SCM_TIMESTAMP A socket cannot mix SO_TIMESTAMP and SO_TIMESTAMPNS : the two modes are mutually exclusive. sock_recv_timestamp() became too big to be fully inlined so I added a __sock_recv_timestamp() helper function.

This is suboptimal because there is currently no way these entries can be used for a lookup(). (/proc/xxx/fd/xxx uses a different mechanism). Inserting them in dentry hashtable slows dcache lookups. To let __dpath() still work correctly (ie not adding a " (deleted)") after dentry name, we do : - Right after d_alloc(), pretend they are hashed by clearing the DCACHE_UNHASHED bit. - Call d_instantiate() instead of d_add() : dentry is not inserted in hash table. __dpath() & friends work as intended during dentry lifetime. - At dismantle time, once dput() must clear the dentry, setting again DCACHE_UNHASHED bit inside the custom d_delete() function provided by socket code, so that dput() can just kill_it.
