netfilter: ipset: fix performance regression in swap operation

2024-01-31T22:13:57+00:00

The patch "netfilter: ipset: fix race condition between swap/destroy
and kernel side add/del/test", commit 28628fa9 fixes a race condition.
But the synchronize_rcu() added to the swap function unnecessarily slows
it down: it can safely be moved to destroy and use call_rcu() instead.

Eric Dumazet pointed out that simply calling the destroy functions as
rcu callback does not work: sets with timeout use garbage collectors
which need cancelling at destroy which can wait. Therefore the destroy
functions are split into two: cancelling garbage collectors safely at
executing the command received by netlink and moving the remaining
part only into the rcu callback.

netfilter: ipset: Rework long task execution when adding/deleting entries

2023-01-02T14:10:05+00:00

When adding/deleting large number of elements in one step in ipset, it can
take a reasonable amount of time and can result in soft lockup errors. The
patch 5f7b51bf09ba ("netfilter: ipset: Limit the maximal range of
consecutive elements to add/delete") tried to fix it by limiting the max
elements to process at all. However it was not enough, it is still possible
that we get hung tasks. Lowering the limit is not reasonable, so the
approach in this patch is as follows: rely on the method used at resizing
sets and save the state when we reach a smaller internal batch limit,
unlock/lock and proceed from the saved state. Thus we can avoid long
continuous tasks and at the same time removed the limit to add/delete large
number of elements in one step.

The nfnl mutex is held during the whole operation which prevents one to
issue other ipset commands in parallel.

netfilter: ipset: Add support for new bitmask parameter

2022-11-30T17:55:36+00:00

Add a new parameter to complement the existing 'netmask' option. The
main difference between netmask and bitmask is that bitmask takes any
arbitrary ip address as input, it does not have to be a valid netmask.

The name of the new parameter is 'bitmask'. This lets us mask out
arbitrary bits in the ip address, for example:
ipset create set1 hash:ip bitmask 255.128.255.0
ipset create set2 hash:ip,port family inet6 bitmask ffff::ff80

netfilter: ipset: Limit the maximal range of consecutive elements to add/delete

2021-08-04T08:41:03+00:00

The range size of consecutive elements were not limited. Thus one could
define a huge range which may result soft lockup errors due to the long
execution time. Now the range size is limited to 2^20 entries.

netfilter: ipset: Add bucketsize parameter to all hash types

2020-10-31T10:54:42+00:00

The parameter defines the upper limit in any hash bucket at adding new entries
from userspace - if the limit would be exceeded, ipset doubles the hash size
and rehashes. It means the set may consume more memory but gives faster
evaluation at matching in the set.

netfilter: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member

2020-03-15T14:20:16+00:00

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

Lastly, fix checkpatch.pl warning
WARNING: __aligned(size) is preferred over __attribute__((aligned(size)))
in net/bridge/netfilter/ebtables.c

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

netfilter: ipset: Fix "INFO: rcu detected stall in hash_xxx" reports

2020-02-22T11:00:06+00:00

In the case of huge hash:* types of sets, due to the single spinlock of
a set the processing of the whole set under spinlock protection could take
too long.

There were four places where the whole hash table of the set was processed
from bucket to bucket under holding the spinlock:

- During resizing a set, the original set was locked to exclude kernel side
add/del element operations (userspace add/del is excluded by the
nfnetlink mutex). The original set is actually just read during the
resize, so the spinlocking is replaced with rcu locking of regions.
However, thus there can be parallel kernel side add/del of entries.
In order not to loose those operations a backlog is added and replayed
after the successful resize.
- Garbage collection of timed out entries was also protected by the spinlock.
In order not to lock too long, region locking is introduced and a single
region is processed in one gc go. Also, the simple timer based gc running
is replaced with a workqueue based solution. The internal book-keeping
(number of elements, size of extensions) is moved to region level due to
the region locking.
- Adding elements: when the max number of the elements is reached, the gc
was called to evict the timed out entries. The new approach is that the gc
is called just for the matching region, assuming that if the region
(proportionally) seems to be full, then the whole set does. We could scan
the other regions to check every entry under rcu locking, but for huge
sets it'd mean a slowdown at adding elements.
- Listing the set header data: when the set was defined with timeout
support, the garbage collector was called to clean up timed out entries
to get the correct element numbers and set size values. Now the set is
scanned to check non-timed out entries, without actually calling the gc
for the whole set.

Thanks to Florian Westphal for helping me to solve the SOFTIRQ-safe ->
SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock order issues during working on the patch.

netfilter: ipset: use bitmap infrastructure completely

2020-01-20T16:41:45+00:00

The bitmap allocation did not use full unsigned long sizes
when calculating the required size and that was triggered by KASAN
as slab-out-of-bounds read in several places. The patch fixes all
of them.
