2015-04-15dm: add full blk-mq support to request-based DMMike Snitzer
Commit e5863d9ad ("dm: allocate requests in target when stacking on blk-mq devices") served as the first step toward fully utilizing blk-mq in request-based DM -- it enabled stacking an old-style (request_fn) request_queue ontop of the underlying blk-mq device(s). That first step didn't improve performance of DM multipath ontop of fast blk-mq devices (e.g. NVMe) because the top-level old-style request_queue was severely limited by the queue_lock. The second step offered here enables stacking a blk-mq request_queue ontop of the underlying blk-mq device(s). This unlocks significant performance gains on fast blk-mq devices, Keith Busch tested on his NVMe testbed and offered this really positive news: "Just providing a performance update. All my fio tests are getting roughly equal performance whether accessed through the raw block device or the multipath device mapper (~470k IOPS). I could only push ~20% of the raw iops through dm before this conversion, so this latest tree is looking really solid from a performance standpoint."

Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt. 2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers can support hw switch offloading. From Floria Fainelli. 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave, from Madhu Challa. 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck. 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25, rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed underneath. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk. 14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard Cochran. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits) fm10k: Bump driver version to 0.15.2 fm10k: corrected VF multicast update fm10k: mbx_update_max_size does not drop all oversized messages fm10k: reset head instead of calling update_max_size fm10k: renamed mbx_tx_dropped to mbx_tx_oversized fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses fm10k: start service timer on probe fm10k: fix function header comment fm10k: comment next_vf_mbx flow fm10k: don't handle mailbox events in iov_event path and always process mailbox fm10k: use separate workqueue for fm10k driver fm10k: Set PF queues to unlimited bandwidth during virtualization fm10k: expose tx_timeout_count as an ethtool stat fm10k: only increment tx_timeout_count in Tx hang path fm10k: remove extraneous "Reset interface" message fm10k: separate PF only stats so that VF does not display them fm10k: use hw->mac.max_queues for stats fm10k: only show actual queues, not the maximum in hardware fm10k: allow creation of VLAN on default vid fm10k: fix unused warnings ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull perf changes from Ingo Molnar: "Core kernel changes: - One of the more interesting features in this cycle is the ability to attach eBPF programs (user-defined, sandboxed bytecode executed by the kernel) to kprobes. This allows user-defined instrumentation on a live kernel image that can never crash, hang or interfere with the kernel negatively. (Right now it's limited to root-only, but in the future we might allow unprivileged use as well.) (Alexei Starovoitov) - Another non-trivial feature is per event clockid support: this allows, amongst other things, the selection of different clock sources for event timestamps traced via perf. This feature is sought by people who'd like to merge perf generated events with external events that were measured with different clocks: - cluster wide profiling - for system wide tracing with user-space events, - JIT profiling events etc. Matching perf tooling support is added as well, available via the -k, --clockid <clockid> parameter to perf record et al. (Peter Zijlstra) Hardware enablement kernel changes: - x86 Intel Processor Trace (PT) support: which is a hardware tracer on steroids, available on Broadwell CPUs. The hardware trace stream is directly output into the user-space ring-buffer, using the 'AUX' data format extension that was added to the perf core to support hardware constraints such as the necessity to have the tracing buffer physically contiguous. This patch-set was developed for two years and this is the result. A simple way to make use of this is to use BTS tracing, the PT driver emulates BTS output - available via the 'intel_bts' PMU. More explicit PT specific tooling support is in the works as well - will probably be ready by 4.2. (Alexander Shishkin, Peter Zijlstra) - x86 Intel Cache QoS Monitoring (CQM) support: this is a hardware feature of Intel Xeon CPUs that allows the measurement and allocation/partitioning of caches to individual workloads. These kernel changes expose the measurement side as a new PMU driver, which exposes various QoS related PMU events. (The partitioning change is work in progress and is planned to be merged as a cgroup extension.) (Matt Fleming, Peter Zijlstra; CPU feature detection by Peter P Waskiewicz Jr) - x86 Intel Haswell LBR call stack support: this is a new Haswell feature that allows the hardware recording of call chains, plus tooling support. To activate this feature you have to enable it via the new 'lbr' call-graph recording option: perf record --call-graph lbr perf report or: perf top --call-graph lbr This hardware feature is a lot faster than stack walk or dwarf based unwinding, but has some limitations: - It reuses the current LBR facility, so LBR call stack and branch record can not be enabled at the same time. - It is only available for user-space callchains. (Yan, Zheng) - x86 Intel Broadwell CPU support and various event constraints and event table fixes for earlier models. (Andi Kleen) - x86 Intel HT CPUs event scheduling workarounds. This is a complex CPU bug affecting the SNB,IVB,HSW families that results in counter value corruption. The mitigation code is automatically enabled and is transparent. (Maria Dimakopoulou, Stephane Eranian) The perf tooling side had a ton of changes in this cycle as well, so I'm only able to list the user visible changes here, in addition to the tooling changes outlined above: User visible changes affecting all tools: - Improve support of compressed kernel modules (Jiri Olsa) - Save DSO loading errno to better report errors (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) - Bash completion for subcommands (Yunlong Song) - Add 'I' event modifier for perf_event_attr.exclude_idle bit (Jiri Olsa) - Support missing -f to override perf.data file ownership. (Yunlong Song) - Show the first event with an invalid filter (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) User visible changes in individual tools: 'perf data': New tool for converting perf.data to other formats, initially for the CTF (Common Trace Format) from LTTng (Jiri Olsa, Sebastian Siewior) 'perf diff': Add --kallsyms option (David Ahern) 'perf list': Allow listing events with 'tracepoint' prefix (Yunlong Song) Sort the output of the command (Yunlong Song) 'perf kmem': Respect -i option (Jiri Olsa) Print big numbers using thousands' group (Namhyung Kim) Allow -v option (Namhyung Kim) Fix alignment of slab result table (Namhyung Kim) 'perf probe': Support multiple probes on different binaries on the same command line (Masami Hiramatsu) Support unnamed union/structure members data collection. (Masami Hiramatsu) Check kprobes blacklist when adding new events. (Masami Hiramatsu) 'perf record': Teach 'perf record' about perf_event_attr.clockid (Peter Zijlstra) Support recording running/enabled time (Andi Kleen) 'perf sched': Improve the performance of 'perf sched replay' on high CPU core count machines (Yunlong Song) 'perf report' and 'perf top': Allow annotating entries in callchains in the hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Indicate which callchain entries are annotated in the TUI hists browser (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Add pid/tid filtering to 'report' and 'script' commands (David Ahern) Consider PERF_RECORD_ events with cpumode == 0 in 'perf top', removing one cause of long term memory usage buildup, i.e. not processing PERF_RECORD_EXIT events (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) 'perf stat': Report unsupported events properly (Suzuki K. Poulose) Output running time and run/enabled ratio in CSV mode (Andi Kleen) 'perf trace': Handle legacy syscalls tracepoints (David Ahern, Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Only insert blank duration bracket when tracing syscalls (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Filter out the trace pid when no threads are specified (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Dump stack on segfaults (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) No need to explicitely enable evsels for workload started from perf, let it be enabled via perf_event_attr.enable_on_exec, removing some events that take place in the 'perf trace' before a workload is really started by it. (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo) Allow mixing with tracepoints and suppressing plain syscalls.

This has been in linux-next for more than one release, as I had it ready for the 4.0 merge window, but a last minute thing that needed to go into Linux first had to be done. That was that perf hard coded the file system number when reading /sys/kernel/debugfs/tracing directory making sure that the path had the debugfs mount # before it would parse the tracing file. This broke other use cases of perf, and the check is removed. Now when mounting /sys/kernel/debug, tracefs is automatically mounted in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing such that old tools will still see that path as expected. But now system admins can mount tracefs directly and not need to mount debugfs, which can expose security issues.

2015-04-13netfilter: nft_dynset: dynamic stateful expression instantiationPatrick McHardy
Support instantiating stateful expressions based on a template that are associated with dynamically created set entries. The expressions are evaluated when adding or updating the set element. This allows to maintain per flow state using the existing set infrastructure and expression types, with arbitrary definitions of a flow. Usage is currently restricted to anonymous sets, meaning only a single binding can exist, since the desired semantics of multiple independant bindings haven't been defined so far. Examples (userspace syntax is still WIP): 1. Limit the rate of new SSH connections per host, similar to iptables hashlimit: flow ip saddr timeout 60s \ limit 10/second \ accept 2. Account network traffic between each set of /24 networks: flow ip saddr & 255.255.255.0 . ip daddr & 255.255.255.0 \ counter 3. Account traffic to each host per user: flow skuid . ip daddr \ counter 4. Account traffic for each combination of source address and TCP flags: flow ip saddr . tcp flags \ counter The resulting set content after a Xmas-scan look like this: { 192.168.122.1 . fin | psh | urg : counter packets 1001 bytes 40040, 192.168.122.1 . ack : counter packets 74 bytes 3848, 192.168.122.1 . psh | ack : counter packets 35 bytes 3144 } Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2015-04-13netfilter: nf_tables: switch registers to 32 bit addressingPatrick McHardy
Switch the nf_tables registers from 128 bit addressing to 32 bit addressing to support so called concatenations, where multiple values can be concatenated over multiple registers for O(1) exact matches of multiple dimensions using sets. The old register values are mapped to areas of 128 bits for compatibility. When dumping register numbers, values are expressed using the old values if they refer to the beginning of a 128 bit area for compatibility. To support concatenations, register loads of less than a full 32 bit value need to be padded. This mainly affects the payload and exthdr expressions, which both unconditionally zero the last word before copying the data.

The entire set of changes come from Vlad Zolotarov to ultimately add the ethtool ops to VF driver to allow querying the RSS indirection table and RSS random key. Currently we support only 82599 and x540 devices. On those devices, VFs share the RSS redirection table and hash key with a PF. Letting the VF query this information may introduce some security risks, therefore this feature will be disabled by default. The new netdev op allows a system administrator to change the default behaviour with "ip link set" command. The relevant iproute2 patch has already been sent and awaits for this series upstream. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

However, the 640x480p59.94 format is part of the CEA-861 standard, but it is *not* a CE video format. Add a new flag to make this explicit. This information is needed in order to determine the default R'G'B' encoding for the format: for CE video this is limited range (16-235) instead of full range (0-255).

It also adds 'flags' argument to bpf_skb_store_bytes() helper to avoid unnecessary checksum recomputations when BPF programs adjusting l3/l4 checksums and documents all three helpers in uapi header.

2015-04-02[media] v4l2_plane_pix_format: use __u32 bytesperline instead of __u16Hans Verkuil
While running v4l2-compliance tests on vivid I suddenly got errors due to a call to vmalloc_user with size 0 from vb2. Digging deeper into the cause I discovered that this was due to the fact that struct v4l2_plane_pix_format defines bytesperline as a __u16 instead of a __u32. The test I was running selected a format of 4 * 4096 by 4 * 2048 with a 32 bit pixelformat. So bytesperline was 4 * 4 * 4096 = 65536, which becomes 0 in a __u16. And bytesperline * height is suddenly 0 as well. While the vivid driver may be a virtual driver, it is to be expected that this limit will be hit for real hardware as well in the near future: 8k deep-color video will already reach it. The solution is to change the type to __u32. The only drivers besides vivid that use the multiplanar API are little-endian ARM and SH platforms (exynos, ti-vpe, vsp1), so this is safe.

2015-04-02perf: Add ITRACE_START record to indicate that tracing has startedAlexander Shishkin
For counters that generate AUX data that is bound to the context of a running task, such as instruction tracing, the decoder needs to know exactly which task is running when the event is first scheduled in, before the first sched_switch. The decoder's need to know this stems from the fact that instruction flow trace decoding will almost always require program's object code in order to reconstruct said flow and for that we need at least its pid/tid in the perf stream. To single out such instruction tracing pmus, this patch introduces ITRACE PMU capability. The reason this is not part of RECORD_AUX record is that not all pmus capable of generating AUX data need this, and the opposite is *probably* also true. While sched_switch covers for most cases, there are two problems with it: the consumer will need to process events out of order (that is, having found RECORD_AUX, it will have to skip forward to the nearest sched_switch to figure out which task it was, then go back to the actual trace to decode it) and it completely misses the case when the tracing is enabled and disabled before sched_switch, for example, via PERF_EVENT_IOC_DISABLE.

2015-04-02perf: Add wakeup watermark control to the AUX areaAlexander Shishkin
When AUX area gets a certain amount of new data, we want to wake up userspace to collect it. This adds a new control to specify how much data will cause a wakeup. This is then passed down to pmu drivers via output handle's "wakeup" field, so that the driver can find the nearest point where it can generate an interrupt. We repurpose __reserved_2 in the event attribute for this, even though it was never checked to be zero before, aux_watermark will only matter for new AUX-aware code, so the old code should still be fine.

2015-04-02perf: Support overwrite mode for the AUX areaAlexander Shishkin
This adds support for overwrite mode in the AUX area, which means "keep collecting data till you're stopped", turning AUX area into a circular buffer, where new data overwrites old data. It does not depend on data buffer's overwrite mode, so that it doesn't lose sideband data that is instrumental for processing AUX data. Overwrite mode is enabled at mapping AUX area read only. Even though aux_tail in the buffer's user page might be user writable, it will be ignored in this mode. A PERF_RECORD_AUX with PERF_AUX_FLAG_OVERWRITE set is written to the perf data stream every time an event writes new data to the AUX area. The pmu driver might not be able to infer the exact beginning of the new data in each snapshot, some drivers will only provide the tail, which is aux_offset + aux_size in the AUX record. Consumer has to be able to tell the new data from the old one, for example, by means of time stamps if such are provided in the trace. Consumer is also responsible for disabling any events that might write to the AUX area (thus potentially racing with the consumer) before collecting the data.

2015-04-02perf: Add AUX area to ring buffer for raw data streamsPeter Zijlstra
This patch introduces "AUX space" in the perf mmap buffer, intended for exporting high bandwidth data streams to userspace, such as instruction flow traces. AUX space is a ring buffer, defined by aux_{offset,size} fields in the user_page structure, and read/write pointers aux_{head,tail}, which abide by the same rules as data_* counterparts of the main perf buffer. In order to allocate/mmap AUX, userspace needs to set up aux_offset to such an offset that will be greater than data_offset+data_size and aux_size to be the desired buffer size. Both need to be page aligned. Then, same aux_offset and aux_size should be passed to mmap() call and if everything adds up, you should have an AUX buffer as a result. Pages that are mapped into this buffer also come out of user's mlock rlimit plus perf_event_mlock_kb allowance.
