rtnetlink: add the missing IFLA_GRO_ tb check in validate_linkmsg

2023-06-01T16:59:44+00:00

This fixes the issue that dev gro_max_size and gso_ipv4_max_size
can be set to a huge value:

  # ip link add dummy1 type dummy
  # ip link set dummy1 gro_max_size 4294967295
  # ip -d link show dummy1
    dummy addrgenmode eui64 ... gro_max_size 4294967295

rtnetlink: move IFLA_GSO_ tb check to validate_linkmsg

2023-06-01T16:59:44+00:00

These IFLA_GSO_* tb check should also be done for the new created link,
otherwise, they can be set to a huge value when creating links:

rtnetlink: call validate_linkmsg in rtnl_create_link

2023-06-01T16:59:43+00:00

validate_linkmsg() was introduced by commit 1840bb13c22f5b ("[RTNL]:
Validate hardware and broadcast address attribute for RTM_NEWLINK")
to validate tb[IFLA_ADDRESS/BROADCAST] for existing links. The same
check should also be done for newly created links.

This patch adds validate_linkmsg() call in rtnl_create_link(), to
avoid the invalid address set when creating some devices like:

  # ip link add dummy0 type dummy
  # ip link add link dummy0 name mac0 address 01:02 type macsec

bridge: Allow setting per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression state

2023-04-21T07:25:50+00:00

Add a new bridge port attribute that allows user space to enable
per-{Port, VLAN} neighbor suppression. Example:

 # bridge -d -j -p link show dev swp1 | jq '.[]["neigh_vlan_suppress"]'
 false
 # bridge link set dev swp1 neigh_vlan_suppress on
 # bridge -d -j -p link show dev swp1 | jq '.[]["neigh_vlan_suppress"]'
 true
 # bridge link set dev swp1 neigh_vlan_suppress off
 # bridge -d -j -p link show dev swp1 | jq '.[]["neigh_vlan_suppress"]'
 false

rtnetlink: Restore RTM_NEW/DELLINK notification behavior

2023-04-13T03:47:58+00:00

The commits referenced below allows userspace to use the NLM_F_ECHO flag
for RTM_NEW/DELLINK operations to receive unicast notifications for the
affected link. Prior to these changes, applications may have relied on
multicast notifications to learn the same information without specifying
the NLM_F_ECHO flag.

For such applications, the mentioned commits changed the behavior for
requests not using NLM_F_ECHO. Multicast notifications are still received,
but now use the portid of the requester and the sequence number of the
request instead of zero values used previously. For the application, this
message may be unexpected and likely handled as a response to the
NLM_F_ACKed request, especially if it uses the same socket to handle
requests and notifications.

To fix existing applications relying on the old notification behavior,
set the portid and sequence number in the notification only if the
request included the NLM_F_ECHO flag. This restores the old behavior
for applications not using it, but allows unicasted notifications for
others.

net: dst: Switch to rcuref_t reference counting

2023-03-29T01:52:28+00:00

Under high contention dst_entry::__refcnt becomes a significant bottleneck.

atomic_inc_not_zero() is implemented with a cmpxchg() loop, which goes into
high retry rates on contention.

Switch the reference count to rcuref_t which results in a significant
performance gain. Rename the reference count member to __rcuref to reflect
the change.

The gain depends on the micro-architecture and the number of concurrent
operations and has been measured in the range of +25% to +130% with a
localhost memtier/memcached benchmark which amplifies the problem
massively.

Running the memtier/memcached benchmark over a real (1Gb) network
connection the conversion on top of the false sharing fix for struct
dst_entry::__refcnt results in a total gain in the 2%-5% range over the
upstream baseline.

rtnetlink: bridge: mcast: Relax group address validation in common code

2023-03-17T08:05:49+00:00

In the upcoming VXLAN MDB implementation, the 0.0.0.0 and :: MDB entries
will act as catchall entries for unregistered IP multicast traffic in a
similar fashion to the 00:00:00:00:00:00 VXLAN FDB entry that is used to
transmit BUM traffic.

In deployments where inter-subnet multicast forwarding is used, not all
the VTEPs in a tenant domain are members in all the broadcast domains.
It is therefore advantageous to transmit BULL (broadcast, unknown
unicast and link-local multicast) and unregistered IP multicast traffic
on different tunnels. If the same tunnel was used, a VTEP only
interested in IP multicast traffic would also pull all the BULL traffic
and drop it as it is not a member in the originating broadcast domain
[1].

Prepare for this change by allowing the 0.0.0.0 group address in the
common rtnetlink MDB code and forbid it in the bridge driver. A similar
change is not needed for IPv6 because the common code only validates
that the group address is not the all-nodes address.

rtnetlink: bridge: mcast: Move MDB handlers out of bridge driver

2023-03-17T08:05:48+00:00

Currently, the bridge driver registers handlers for MDB netlink
messages, making it impossible for other drivers to implement MDB
support.

As a preparation for VXLAN MDB support, move the MDB handlers out of the
bridge driver to the core rtnetlink code. The rtnetlink code will call
into individual drivers by invoking their previously added MDB net
device operations.

Note that while the diffstat is large, the change is mechanical. It
moves code out of the bridge driver to rtnetlink code. Also note that a
similar change was made in 2012 with commit 77162022ab26 ("net: add
generic PF_BRIDGE:RTM_ FDB hooks") that moved FDB handlers out of the
bridge driver to the core rtnetlink code.

net: bridge: Add netlink knobs for number / maximum MDB entries

2023-02-06T08:48:26+00:00

The previous patch added accounting for number of MDB entries per port and
per port-VLAN, and the logic to verify that these values stay within
configured bounds. However it didn't provide means to actually configure
those bounds or read the occupancy. This patch does that.

Two new netlink attributes are added for the MDB occupancy:
IFLA_BRPORT_MCAST_N_GROUPS for the per-port occupancy and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_N_GROUPS for the per-port-VLAN occupancy.
And another two for the maximum number of MDB entries:
IFLA_BRPORT_MCAST_MAX_GROUPS for the per-port maximum, and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_MAX_GROUPS for the per-port-VLAN one.

Note that the two new IFLA_BRPORT_ attributes prompt bumping of
RTNL_SLAVE_MAX_TYPE to size the slave attribute tables large enough.

The new attributes are used like this:

 # ip link add name br up type bridge vlan_filtering 1 mcast_snooping 1 \
                                      mcast_vlan_snooping 1 mcast_querier 1
