bonding: discard lowest hash bit for 802.3ad layer3+4

2017-11-24T07:33:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit b5f862180d7011d9575d0499fa37f0f25b423b12 ]

After commit 07f4c90062f8 ("tcp/dccp: try to not exhaust ip_local_port_range
in connect()"), we will try to use even ports for connect(). Then if an
application (seen clearly with iperf) opens multiple streams to the same
destination IP and port, each stream will be given an even source port.

So the bonding driver's simple xmit_hash_policy based on layer3+4 addressing
will always hash all these streams to the same interface. And the total
throughput will limited to a single slave.

Change the tcp code will impact the whole tcp behavior, only for bonding
usage. Paolo Abeni suggested fix this by changing the bonding code only,
which should be more reasonable, and less impact.

Fix this by discarding the lowest hash bit because it contains little entropy.
After the fix we can re-balance between slaves.

bonding: fix accounting of active ports in 3ad

2017-06-07T10:07:45+00:00

[ Upstream commit 751da2a69b7cc82d83dc310ed7606225f2d6e014 ]

As of 7bb11dc9f59d and 0622cab0341c, bond slaves in a 3ad bond are not
removed from the aggregator when they are down, and the active slave count
is NOT equal to number of ports in the aggregator, but rather the number
of ports in the aggregator that are still enabled. The sysfs spew for
bonding_show_ad_num_ports() has a comment that says "Show number of active
802.3ad ports.", but it's currently showing total number of ports, both
active and inactive. Remedy it by using the same logic introduced in
0622cab0341c in __bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info(), so sysfs, procfs and
netlink all report the number of active ports. Note that this means that
IFLA_BOND_AD_INFO_NUM_PORTS really means NUM_ACTIVE_PORTS instead of
NUM_PORTS, and thus perhaps should be renamed for clarity.

Lightly tested on a dual i40e lacp bond, simulating link downs with an ip
link set dev  down, was able to produce the state where I could
see both in the same aggregator, but a number of ports count of 1.

Pull uaccess.h prepwork from Al Viro:
 "Preparations to tree-wide switch to use of linux/uaccess.h (which,
  obviously, will allow to start unifying stuff for real). The last step

    sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \
            `git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h`

  after -rc1.  However, everything should be ready for it"

bonding: quit messing with IOCTL

2016-09-28T01:15:21+00:00

The only remaining users are issuing SIOCGMIIPHY and SIOCGMIIREG,
neither of which deals with userland pointers.  Simply calling
->ndo_do_ioctl() is fine; no messing with set_fs() is needed.
It used to mess with SIOCETHTOOL, which would've needed set_fs(),
but that has been killed in "[NET] ethtool ops are the only way"
9 years ago...

bonding: Fix bonding crash

2016-09-04T18:41:12+00:00

Following few steps will crash kernel -

  (a) Create bonding master
      > modprobe bonding miimon=50
  (b) Create macvlan bridge on eth2
      > ip link add link eth2 dev mvl0 address aa:0:0:0:0:01 \
	   type macvlan
  (c) Now try adding eth2 into the bond
      > echo +eth2 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
      

Bonding does lots of things before checking if the device enslaved is
busy or not.

In this case when the notifier call-chain sends notifications, the
bond_netdev_event() assumes that the rx_handler /rx_handler_data is
registered while the bond_enslave() hasn't progressed far enough to
register rx_handler for the new slave.

This patch adds a rx_handler check that can be performed right at the
beginning of the enslave code to avoid getting into this situation.

bonding: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue

2016-09-01T23:41:07+00:00

alloc_ordered_workqueue() with WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set, replaces
deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue(). This is the identity
conversion.

The workqueue "wq" queues multiple work items viz
&bond->mcast_work, &nnw->work, &bond->mii_work, &bond->arp_work,
&bond->alb_work, &bond->mii_work, &bond->ad_work, &bond->slave_arr_work
which require strict execution ordering. Hence, an ordered dedicated
workqueue has been used.

Since, it is a network driver, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set to
ensure forward progress under memory pressure.

net/bonding: Enforce active-backup policy for IPoIB bonds

2016-07-25T17:18:58+00:00

When using an IPoIB bond currently only active-backup mode is a valid
use case and this commit strengthens it.

Since commit 2ab82852a270 ("net/bonding: Enable bonding to enslave
netdevices not supporting set_mac_address()") was introduced till
4.7-rc1, IPoIB didn't support the set_mac_address ndo, and hence the
fail over mac policy always applied to IPoIB bonds.

With the introduction of commit 492a7e67ff83 ("IB/IPoIB: Allow setting
the device address"), that doesn't hold and practically IPoIB bonds are
broken as of that. To fix it, lets go to fail over mac if the device
doesn't support the ndo OR this is IPoIB device.

As a by-product, this commit also prevents a stack corruption which
occurred when trying to copy 20 bytes (IPoIB) device address
to a sockaddr struct that has only 16 bytes of storage.
