ipv4: fix a deadlock in ip_ra_control

2017-04-17T16:46:50+00:00

Similar to commit 87e9f0315952
("ipv4: fix a potential deadlock in mcast getsockopt() path"),
there is a deadlock scenario for IP_ROUTER_ALERT too:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(rtnl_mutex);
                               lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
                               lock(rtnl_mutex);
  lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);

Fix this by always locking RTNL first on all setsockopt() paths.

Note, after this patch ip_ra_lock is no longer needed either.

lib/vsprintf.c: remove %Z support

2017-02-28T02:43:47+00:00

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.

In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement.  Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.

ipmr: improve hash scalability

2017-01-12T21:48:26+00:00

Recently we started using ipmr with thousands of entries and easily hit
soft lockups on smaller devices. The reason is that the hash function
uses the high order bits from the src and dst, but those don't change in
many common cases, also the hash table  is only 64 elements so with
thousands it doesn't scale at all.
This patch migrates the hash table to rhashtable, and in particular the
rhl interface which allows for duplicate elements to be chained because
of the MFC_PROXY support (*,G; *,*,oif cases) which allows for multiple
duplicate entries to be added with different interfaces (IMO wrong, but
it's been in for a long time).

And here are some results from tests I've run in a VM:
 mr_table size (default, allocated for all namespaces):
  Before                    After
   49304 bytes               2400 bytes

 Add 65000 routes (the diff is much larger on smaller devices):
  Before                    After
   1m42s                     58s

 Forwarding 256 byte packets with 65000 routes (test done in a VM):
  Before                    After
   3 Mbps / ~1465 pps        122 Mbps / ~59000 pps

As a bonus we no longer see the soft lockups on smaller devices which
showed up even with 2000 entries before.

net: ipmr: Remove nowait arg to ipmr_get_route

2017-01-08T22:14:35+00:00

ipmr_get_route has 1 caller and the nowait arg is 0. Remove the arg and
simplify ipmr_get_route accordingly.

ipmr, ip6mr: add RTNH_F_UNRESOLVED flag to unresolved cache entries

2017-01-03T15:04:31+00:00

While working with ipmr, we noticed that it is impossible to determine
if an entry is actually unresolved or its IIF interface has disappeared
(e.g. virtual interface got deleted). These entries look almost
identical to user-space when dumping or receiving notifications. So in
order to recognize them add a new RTNH_F_UNRESOLVED flag which is set when
sending an unresolved cache entry to user-space.

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

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

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

ipv4: allow local fragmentation in ip_finish_output_gso()

2016-11-03T20:10:26+00:00

Some configurations (e.g. geneve interface with default
MTU of 1500 over an ethernet interface with 1500 MTU) result
in the transmission of packets that exceed the configured MTU.
While this should be considered to be a "bad" configuration,
it is still allowed and should not result in the sending
of packets that exceed the configured MTU.

Fix by dropping the assumption in ip_finish_output_gso() that
locally originated gso packets will never need fragmentation.
Basic testing using iperf (observing CPU usage and bandwidth)
have shown no measurable performance impact for traffic not
requiring fragmentation.

net: Enable support for VRF with ipv4 multicast

2016-11-01T15:54:26+00:00

Enable support for IPv4 multicast:
- similar to unicast the flow struct is updated to L3 master device
  if relevant prior to calling fib_rules_lookup. The table id is saved
  to the lookup arg so the rule action for ipmr can return the table
  associated with the device.

- ip_mr_forward needs to check for master device mismatch as well
  since the skb->dev is set to it

- allow multicast address on VRF device for Rx by checking for the
  daddr in the VRF device as well as the original ingress device

- on Tx need to drop to __mkroute_output when FIB lookup fails for
  multicast destination address.

- if CONFIG_IP_MROUTE_MULTIPLE_TABLES is enabled VRF driver creates
  IPMR FIB rules on first device create similar to FIB rules. In
  addition the VRF driver does not divert IPv4 multicast packets:
  it breaks on Tx since the fib lookup fails on the mcast address.

With this patch, ipmr forwarding and local rx/tx work.
