This patch adds code that handles GFP_ATOMIC kmalloc failure on
insertion. As we cannot use vmalloc, we solve it by making our
hash table nested. That is, we allocate single pages at each level
and reach our desired table size by nesting them.
When a nested table is created, only a single page is allocated
at the top-level. Lower levels are allocated on demand during
insertion. Therefore for each insertion to succeed, only two
(non-consecutive) pages are needed.
After a nested table is created, a rehash will be scheduled in
order to switch to a vmalloced table as soon as possible. Also,
the rehash code will never rehash into a nested table. If we
detect a nested table during a rehash, the rehash will be aborted
and a new rehash will be scheduled.

The insecure_elasticity setting is an ugly wart brought out by
users who need to insert duplicate objects (that is, distinct
objects with identical keys) into the same table.
In fact, those users have a much bigger problem. Once those
duplicate objects are inserted, they don't have an interface to
find them (unless you count the walker interface which walks
over the entire table).
Some users have resorted to doing a manual walk over the hash
table which is of course broken because they don't handle the
potential existence of multiple hash tables. The result is that
they will break sporadically when they encounter a hash table
resize/rehash.
This patch provides a way out for those users, at the expense
of an extra pointer per object. Essentially each object is now
a list of objects carrying the same key. The hash table will
only see the lists so nothing changes as far as rhashtable is
concerned.
To use this new interface, you need to insert a struct rhlist_head
into your objects instead of struct rhash_head. While the hash
table is unchanged, for type-safety you'll need to use struct
rhltable instead of struct rhashtable. All the existing interfaces
have been duplicated for rhlist, including the hash table walker.
One missing feature is nulls marking because AFAIK the only potential
user of it does not need duplicate objects. Should anyone need
this it shouldn't be too hard to add.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree. Most relevant updates are the removal of per-conntrack timers to
use a workqueue/garbage collection approach instead from Florian
Westphal, the hash and numgen expression for nf_tables from Laura
Garcia, updates on nf_tables hash set to honor the NLM_F_EXCL flag,
removal of ip_conntrack sysctl and many other incremental updates on our
Netfilter codebase.
More specifically, they are:
1) Retrieve only 4 bytes to fetch ports in case of non-linear skb
transport area in dccp, sctp, tcp, udp and udplite protocol
conntrackers, from Gao Feng.
2) Missing whitespace on error message in physdev match, from Hangbin Liu.
3) Skip redundant IPv4 checksum calculation in nf_dup_ipv4, from Liping Zhang.
4) Add nf_ct_expires() helper function and use it, from Florian Westphal.
5) Replace opencoded nf_ct_kill() call in IPVS conntrack support, also
from Florian.
6) Rename nf_tables set implementation to nft_set_{name}.c
7) Introduce the hash expression to allow arbitrary hashing of selector
concatenations, from Laura Garcia Liebana.
8) Remove ip_conntrack sysctl backward compatibility code, this code has
been around for long time already, and we have two interfaces to do
this already: nf_conntrack sysctl and ctnetlink.
9) Use nf_conntrack_get_ht() helper function whenever possible, instead
of opencoding fetch of hashtable pointer and size, patch from Liping Zhang.
10) Add quota expression for nf_tables.
11) Add number generator expression for nf_tables, this supports
incremental and random generators that can be combined with maps,
very useful for load balancing purpose, again from Laura Garcia Liebana.
12) Fix a typo in a debug message in FTP conntrack helper, from Colin Ian King.
13) Introduce a nft_chain_parse_hook() helper function to parse chain hook
configuration, this is used by a follow up patch to perform better chain
update validation.
14) Add rhashtable_lookup_get_insert_key() to rhashtable and use it from the
nft_set_hash implementation to honor the NLM_F_EXCL flag.
15) Missing nulls check in nf_conntrack from nf_conntrack_tuple_taken(),
patch from Florian Westphal.
16) Don't use the DYING bit to know if the conntrack event has been already
delivered, instead a state variable to track event re-delivery
states, also from Florian.
17) Remove the per-conntrack timer, use the workqueue approach that was
discussed during the NFWS, from Florian Westphal.
18) Use the netlink conntrack table dump path to kill stale entries,
again from Florian.
19) Add a garbage collector to get rid of stale conntracks, from
Florian.
20) Reschedule garbage collector if eviction rate is high.
21) Get rid of the __nf_ct_kill_acct() helper.
22) Use ARPHRD_ETHER instead of hardcoded 1 from ARP logger.
23) Make nf_log_set() interface assertive on unsupported families.

This patch modifies __rhashtable_insert_fast() so it returns the
existing object that clashes with the one that you want to insert.
In case the object is successfully inserted, NULL is returned.
Otherwise, you get an error via ERR_PTR().
This patch adapts the existing callers of __rhashtable_insert_fast()
so they handle this new logic, and it adds a new
rhashtable_lookup_get_insert_key() interface to fetch this existing
object.
nf_tables needs this change to improve handling of EEXIST cases via
honoring the NLM_F_EXCL flag and by checking if the data part of the

The failure happens when allocating the spinlock array.
Even with GFP_KERNEL its unlikely for such a large allocation
to succeed.
Thomas Graf pointed me at inet_ehash_locks_alloc(), so in addition
to adding NOWARN for atomic allocations this also makes the bucket-array
sizing more conservative.
In commit 095dc8e0c3 ("tcp: fix/cleanup inet_ehash_locks_alloc()"),
Eric Dumazet says: "Budget 2 cache lines per cpu worth of 'spinlocks'".
IOW, consider size needed by a single spinlock when determining
number of locks per cpu. So with 64 byte per cacheline and 4 byte per
spinlock this gives 32 locks per cpu.
Resulting size of the lock-array (sizeof(spinlock) == 4):
cpus: 1 2 4 8 16 32 64
old: 1k 1k 4k 8k 16k 16k 16k
new: 128 256 512 1k 2k 4k 8k
8k allocation should have decent chance of success even
with GFP_ATOMIC, and should not fail with GFP_KERNEL.

Thomas and Phil observed that under stress rhashtable insertion
sometimes failed with EBUSY, even though this error should only
ever been seen when we're under attack and our hash chain length
has grown to an unacceptable level, even after a rehash.
It turns out that the logic for detecting whether there is an
existing rehash is faulty. In particular, when two threads both
try to grow the same table at the same time, one of them may see
the newly grown table and thus erroneously conclude that it had
been rehashed. This is what leads to the EBUSY error.
This patch fixes this by remembering the current last table we
used during insertion so that rhashtable_insert_rehash can detect
when another thread has also done a resize/rehash. When this is
detected we will give up our resize/rehash and simply retry the
insertion with the new table.

If rhashtable_walk_next detects a resize operation in progress, it jumps
to the new table and continues walking that one. But it misses to drop
the reference to it's current item, leading it to continue traversing
the new table's bucket in which the current item is sorted into, and
after reaching that bucket's end continues traversing the new table's
second bucket instead of the first one, thereby potentially missing
items.
This fixes the rhashtable runtime test for me. Bug probably introduced

We currently have no limit on the number of elements in a hash table.
This is a problem because some users (tipc) set a ceiling on the
maximum table size and when that is reached the hash table may
degenerate. Others may encounter OOM when growing and if we allow
insertions when that happens the hash table perofrmance may also
suffer.
This patch adds a new paramater insecure_max_entries which becomes
the cap on the table. If unset it defaults to max_size * 2. If
it is also zero it means that there is no cap on the number of
elements in the table. However, the table will grow whenever the
utilisation hits 100% and if that growth fails, you will get ENOMEM
on insertion.
As allowing oversubscription is potentially dangerous, the name
contains the word insecure.
Note that the cap is not a hard limit. This is done for performance
reasons as enforcing a hard limit will result in use of atomic ops
that are heavier than the ones we currently use.
The reasoning is that we're only guarding against a gross over-
subscription of the table, rather than a small breach of the limit.

rhashtable_param (which obviously must be the same set of parameters
supplied to rhashtable_init) as an argument.
The only remaining indirect call is to obj_hashfn (or key_hashfn it
obj_hashfn is unset) on the rehash as well as the insert-during-
rehash slow path.
This patch also extends the support of vairable-length keys to
include those where the key is fixed but scattered in the object.
For example, in netlink we want to key off the namespace and the
portid but they're not next to each other.
This patch does this by directly using the object hash function
as the indicator of whether the key is accessible or not. It
also adds a new function obj_cmpfn to compare a key against an
object. This means that the caller no longer needs to supply
explicit compare functions.
All this is done in a backwards compatible manner so no existing
users are affected until they convert to the new interface.

The commit 9d901bc051 ("rhashtable:
Free bucket tables asynchronously after rehash") causes gratuitous
failures in rhashtable_remove.
The reason is that it inadvertently introduced multiple rehashing
from the perspective of readers. IOW it is now possible to see
more than two tables during a single RCU critical section.
Fortunately the other reader rhashtable_lookup already deals with
this correctly thanks to c4db8848af
("rhashtable: rhashtable: Move future_tbl into struct bucket_table")
so only rhashtable_remove is broken by this change.
This patch fixes this by looping over every table from the first
one to the last or until we find the element that we were trying
to delete.
Incidentally the simple test for detecting rehashing to prevent
starting another shrinking no longer works. Since it isn't needed
anyway (the work queue and the mutex serves as a natural barrier
to unnecessary rehashes) I've simply killed the test.

Previously whenever the walker encountered a resize it simply
snaps back to the beginning and starts again. However, this only
works if the rehash started and completed while the walker was
idle.
If the walker attempts to restart while the rehash is still ongoing,
we may miss objects that we shouldn't have.
This patch fixes this by making the walker walk the old table
followed by the new table just like all other readers. If a
rehash is detected we will still signal our caller of the fact
so they can prepare for duplicates but we will simply continue
the walk onto the new table after the old one is finished either
by us or by the rehasher.

Commit c0c09bfdc4 ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for worker
queue") changed ht->shift to be atomic, which is actually unnecessary.
Instead of leaving the current shift in the core rhashtable structure,
it can be cached inside the individual bucket tables.
There, it will only be initialized once during a new table allocation
in the shrink/expansion slow path, and from then onward it stays immutable
for the rest of the bucket table liftime.
That allows shift to be non-atomic. The patch also moves hash_rnd
management into the table setup. The rhashtable structure now consumes

While commit c0c09bfdc4 ("rhashtable: avoid unnecessary wakeup for
worker queue") rightfully moved part of the decision making of
whether we should expand or shrink from the expand/shrink functions
themselves into insert/delete functions in order to avoid unnecessary
worker wake-ups, it however introduced a regression by doing so.
Before that change, if no max_shift was specified (= 0) on rhashtable
initialization, rhashtable_expand() would just grow unconditionally
and lets the available memory be the limiting factor. After that
change, if no max_shift was specified, there would be _no_ expansion
step at all.
Given that netlink and tipc have a max_shift specified, it was not
visible there, but Josh Hunt reported that if nft that starts out
with a default element hint of 3 if not otherwise provided, would
slow i.e. inserts down trememdously as it cannot grow larger to
relax table occupancy.
Given that the test case verifies shrinks/expands manually, we also
must remove pointer to the helper functions to explicitly avoid
parallel resizing on insertions/deletions. test_bucket_stats() and
test_rht_lookup() could also be wrapped around rhashtable mutex to
explicitly synchronize a walk from resizing, but I think that defeats
the actual test case which intended to have explicit test steps,
i.e. 1) inserts, 2) expands, 3) shrinks, 4) deletions, with object
verification after each stage.

This however is counter intuitive, e.g. an initial default size of 64

The remove logic properly searched the remaining chain for a matching
entry with an identical hash but it did this while searching from both
the old and new table. Instead in order to not leave stale references
behind we need to:
1. When growing and searching from the new table:
Search remaining chain for entry with same hash to avoid having
the new table directly point to a entry with a different hash.
2. When shrinking and searching from the old table:
Check if the element after the removed would create a cross
reference and avoid it if so.
These bugs were present from the beginning in nft_hash.
Also, both insert functions calculated the hash based on the mask of
the new table. This worked while growing. Wwhile shrinking, the mask
of the inew table is smaller than the mask of the old table. This lead
to a bit not being taken into account when selecting the bucket lock
and thus caused the wrong bucket to be locked eventually.

rhashtable currently allows to use a bucket lock per bucket. This
requires multiple levels of complicated nested locking because when
resizing, a single bucket of the smaller table will map to two
buckets in the larger table. So far rhashtable has explicitly locked
both buckets in the larger table.
By excluding the highest bit of the hash from the bucket lock map and
thus only allowing locks to buckets in a ratio of 1:2, the locking
can be simplified a lot without losing the benefits of multiple locks.
Larger tables which benefit from multiple locks will not have a single
lock per bucket anyway.

By the way, we add a condition to check whether resizing functions
are NULL before cancelling the work, avoiding to cancel an

Lastly, while we wait for all work items we submitted before to run

rhashtable_destroy(). Moreover, cancel_delayed_work() doesn't return
until all work items are accomplished, and when work items are

However, as rht_deferred_worker() also needs to acquire the lock,
deadlock might happen at the moment as the lock is already held before.
So if the cancel work function is moved out of the lock covered scope,
this will avoid the deadlock.

[...]
.nulls_base = (1U << RHT_BASE_SHIFT),
};
This reduces the hash length from 32 bits to 27 bits.

Introduces an array of spinlocks to protect bucket mutations. The number
of spinlocks per CPU is configurable and selected based on the hash of
the bucket. This allows for parallel insertions and removals of entries
which do not share a lock.
The patch also defers expansion and shrinking to a worker queue which
allows insertion and removal from atomic context. Insertions and
deletions may occur in parallel to it and are only held up briefly
while the particular bucket is linked or unzipped.
Mutations of the bucket table pointer is protected by a new mutex, read
access is RCU protected.
In the event of an expansion or shrinking, the new bucket table allocated
is exposed as a so called future table as soon as the resize process
starts. Lookups, deletions, and insertions will briefly use both tables.
The future table becomes the main table after an RCU grace period and
initial linking of the old to the new table was performed. Optimization
of the chains to make use of the new number of buckets follows only the
new table is in use.
The side effect of this is that during that RCU grace period, a bucket
traversal using any rht_for_each() variant on the main table will not see
any insertions performed during the RCU grace period which would at that
point land in the future table. The lookup will see them as it searches
both tables if needed.
Having multiple insertions and removals occur in parallel requires nelems
to become an atomic counter.
