dingtianhong dc8eaaa006 vlan: Fix lockdep warning when vlan dev handle notification
When I open the LOCKDEP config and run these steps:

modprobe 8021q
vconfig add eth2 20
vconfig add eth2.20 30
ifconfig eth2 xx.xx.xx.xx

then the Call Trace happened:

========================================================================

The reason is that all of the addr_lock_key for vlan dev have the same class,
so if we change the status for vlan dev, the vlan dev and its real dev will
hold the same class of addr_lock_key together, so the warning happened.

we should distinguish the lock depth for vlan dev and its real dev.

v1->v2: Convert the vlan_netdev_addr_lock_key to an array of eight elements, which
	could support to add 8 vlan id on a same vlan dev, I think it is enough for current
	scene, because a netdev's name is limited to IFNAMSIZ which could not hold 8 vlan id,
	and the vlan dev would not meet the same class key with its real dev.

	The new function vlan_dev_get_lockdep_subkey() will return the subkey and make the vlan
	dev could get a suitable class key.

v2->v3: According David's suggestion, I use the subclass to distinguish the lock key for vlan dev
	and its real dev, but it make no sense, because the difference for subclass in the
	lock_class_key doesn't mean that the difference class for lock_key, so I use lock_depth
	to distinguish the different depth for every vlan dev, the same depth of the vlan dev
	could have the same lock_class_key, I import the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH from the include/linux/sched.h,
	I think it is enough here, the lockdep should never exceed that value.

v3->v4: Add a huge array of locking keys will waste static kernel memory and is not a appropriate method,
	we could use _nested() variants to fix the problem, calculate the depth for every vlan dev,
	and use the depth as the subclass for addr_lock_key.

Vlad Yasevich 1e785f48d2 net: Start with correct mac_len in skb_network_protocol
Sometimes, when the packet arrives at skb_mac_gso_segment()
its skb->mac_len already accounts for some of the mac lenght
headers in the packet.  This seems to happen when forwarding
through and OpenSSL tunnel.

When we start looking for any vlan headers in skb_network_protocol()
we seem to ignore any of the already known mac headers and start
with an ETH_HLEN.  This results in an incorrect offset, dropped
TSO frames and general slowness of the connection.

We can start counting from the known skb->mac_len
and return at least that much if all mac level headers
are known and accounted for.

Veaceslav Falico 6859e7df6d netdev: remove potentially harmful checks
Currently we're checking a variable for != NULL after actually
dereferencing it, in netdev_lower_get_next_private*().

It's counter-intuitive at best, and can lead to faulty usage (as it implies
that the variable can be NULL), so fix it by removing the useless checks.

Eric Dumazet e33d0ba804 net-gro: reset skb->truesize in napi_reuse_skb()
Recycling skb always had been very tough...

This time it appears GRO layer can accumulate skb->truesize
adjustments made by drivers when they attach a fragment to skb.

skb_gro_receive() can only subtract from skb->truesize the used part
of a fragment.

I spotted this problem seeing TcpExtPruneCalled and
TcpExtTCPRcvCollapsed that were unexpected with a recent kernel, where
TCP receive window should be sized properly to accept traffic coming
from a driver not overshooting skb->truesize.

Eric Dumazet a50e233c50 net-gro: restore frag0 optimization
Main difference between napi_frags_skb() and napi_gro_receive() is that
the later is called while ethernet header was already pulled by the NIC
driver (eth_type_trans() was called before napi_gro_receive())

Jerry Chu in commit 299603e837 ("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the
upcoming tunneling support") tried to remove this difference by calling
eth_type_trans() from napi_frags_skb() instead of doing this later from
napi_frags_finish()

Goal was that napi_gro_complete() could call
ptype->callbacks.gro_complete(skb, 0)  (offset of first network header =
0)

Also, xxx_gro_receive() handlers all use off = skb_gro_offset(skb) to
point to their own header, for the current skb and ones held in gro_list

Problem is this cleanup work defeated the frag0 optimization:
It turns out the consecutive pskb_may_pull() calls are too expensive.

This patch brings back the frag0 stuff in napi_frags_skb().

As all skb have their mac header in skb head, we no longer need
skb_gro_mac_header()

Vlad Yasevich 53d6471cef net: Account for all vlan headers in skb_mac_gso_segment
skb_network_protocol() already accounts for multiple vlan
headers that may be present in the skb.  However, skb_mac_gso_segment()
doesn't know anything about it and assumes that skb->mac_len
is set correctly to skip all mac headers.  That may not
always be the case.  If we are simply forwarding the packet (via
bridge or macvtap), all vlan headers may not be accounted for.

A simple solution is to allow skb_network_protocol to return
the vlan depth it has calculated.  This way skb_mac_gso_segment
will correctly skip all mac headers.

Eric W. Biederman 9c62a68d13 netpoll: Remove dead packet receive code (CONFIG_NETPOLL_TRAP)
The netpoll packet receive code only becomes active if the netpoll
rx_skb_hook is implemented, and there is not a single implementation
of the netpoll rx_skb_hook in the kernel.

All of the out of tree implementations I have found all call
netpoll_poll which was removed from the kernel in 2011, so this
change should not add any additional breakage.

There are problems with the netpoll packet receive code.  __netpoll_rx
does not call dev_kfree_skb_irq or dev_kfree_skb_any in hard irq
context.  netpoll_neigh_reply leaks every skb it receives.  Reception
of packets does not work successfully on stacked devices (aka bonding,
team, bridge, and vlans).

Given that the netpoll packet receive code is buggy, there are no
out of tree users that will be merged soon, and the code has
not been used for in tree for a decade let's just remove it.

Reverting this commit can server as a starting point for anyone

Frederic Weisbecker c46fff2a3b smp: Rename __smp_call_function_single() to smp_call_function_single_async()
The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().

The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.

As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.

Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

Frederic Weisbecker fce8ad1568 smp: Remove wait argument from __smp_call_function_single()
The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.

This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.

This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.

Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:

1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
   in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
   sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.

   But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
   can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
   and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.

   Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
   because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
   for this csd.

2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
   is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
   can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
   stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.

Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.

There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

For GRO purposes, the destination UDP port takes the role of the ether type

The UDP GRO handler will only attempt to coalesce packets whose destination
port is registered to have gro handler.

Use a mark on the skb GRO CB data to disallow (flush) running the udp gro receive
code twice on a packet. This solves the problem of udp encapsulated packets whose
inner VM packet is udp and happen to carry a port which has registered offloads.

This is a really long and costy operation (sometimes). To fix this, add
NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU notification which is called prior to any change
actually happening, and if any callee returns NOTIFY_BAD - the change is
aborted. This way we're skipping all the playing with apply/revert the mtu.

Use skb_hash_raw so that we don't force the hash to be calculated.

Eric Dumazet 600adc18eb net: gro: change GRO overflow strategy
GRO layer has a limit of 8 flows being held in GRO list,
for performance reason.

When a packet comes for a flow not yet in the list,
and list is full, we immediately give it to upper
stacks, lowering aggregation performance.

With TSO auto sizing and FQ packet scheduler, this situation
happens more often.

This patch changes strategy to simply evict the oldest flow of
the list. This works better because of the nature of packet
trains for which GRO is efficient. This also has the effect
of lowering the GRO latency if many flows are competing.

Tested :

Used a 40Gbps NIC, with 4 RX queues, and 200 concurrent TCP_STREAM
netperf.

Before patch, aggregate rate is 11Gbps (while a single flow can reach
30Gbps)

After patch, line rate is reached.

Jason Wang f663dd9aaf net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwarding
Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:

- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
  instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
  lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
  control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
  watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
  when tso is disabled for lower device.

Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.

With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.

In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

Jerry Chu bf5a755f5e net-gre-gro: Add GRE support to the GRO stack
This patch built on top of Commit 299603e837
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.

The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.

Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.

The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.

Note that commit 60769a5dcd "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.

I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.

All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)

An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.

The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).

1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 9.16Gbps
CPU utilization: 19%

1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 5.9Gbps
CPU utilization: 15%

1.3 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 12-13%

1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on
thruput: 9.26Gbps
CPU utilization: 10%

The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum

Benjamin Poirier cdb3f4a31b net: Do not enable tx-nocache-copy by default
There are many cases where this feature does not improve performance or even
reduces it.

For example, here are the results from tests that I've run using 3.12.6 on one
Intel Xeon W3565 and one i7 920 connected by ixgbe adapters. The results are
from the Xeon, but they're similar on the i7. All numbers report the
mean±stddev over 10 runs of 10s.

1) latency tests similar to what is described in "c6e1a0d net: Allow no-cache
copy from user on transmit"
There is no statistically significant difference between tx-nocache-copy
on/off.
nic irqs spread out (one queue per cpu)

====================
netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree,
they are:

* Add full port randomization support. Some crazy researchers found a way
  to reconstruct the secure ephemeral ports that are allocated in random mode
  by sending off-path bursts of UDP packets to overrun the socket buffer of
  the DNS resolver to trigger retransmissions, then if the timing for the
  DNS resolution done by a client is larger than usual, then they conclude
  that the port that received the burst of UDP packets is the one that was
  opened. It seems a bit aggressive method to me but it seems to work for
  them. As a result, Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa came up with a
  new NAT mode to fully randomize ports using prandom.

* Add a new classifier to x_tables based on the socket net_cls set via
  cgroups. These includes two patches to prepare the field as requested by
  Zefan Li. Also from Daniel Borkmann.

* Use prandom instead of get_random_bytes in several locations of the
  netfilter code, from Florian Westphal.

* Allow to use the CTA_MARK_MASK in ctnetlink when mangling the conntrack
  mark, also from Florian Westphal.

* Fix compilation warning due to unused variable in IPVS, from Geert
  Uytterhoeven.

* Add support for UID/GID via nfnetlink_queue, from Valentina Giusti.

* Add IPComp extension to x_tables, from Fan Du.

John Fastabend 85328240c6 net: allow netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu with rtnl lock held
It is useful to be able to walk all upper devices when bringing
a device online where the RTNL lock is held. In this case it
is safe to walk the all_adj_list because the RTNL lock is used
to protect the write side as well.

This patch adds a check to see if the rtnl lock is held before
throwing a warning in netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu().

Also because we now have a call site for lockdep_rtnl_is_held()
outside COFIG_LOCK_PROVING an inline definition returning 1 is
needed. Similar to the rcu_read_lock_is_held().

Jerry Chu 299603e837 net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support
This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header"
and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow
an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the
encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP
tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later.

With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on
skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g.,
skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the
the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for
a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new
encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows
(e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a
different hdr length.

Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and
will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at
most one "transport layer" in the encap chain.

We need to separate the two causes to get better diagnostics

Vlad Yasevich d2615bf450 net: core: Always propagate flag changes to interfaces
The following commit:
    b6c40d68ff
    net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP

tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting.
The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that
was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count.
This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently
down.

A later commit:
    deede2fabe
    vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces

fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up,
thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN.

The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack
involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans,
then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to
the physical devices.  A simple examle of the scenario is the
following:

  eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50

If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to
the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is
currently required for operation as part of the bridge.  As a
result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface.

The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are
VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect
flag propagation.  As a result we can remove the generic solution
introduced in b6c40d68ff and leave
it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block
flag propagation or not.

Eric Dumazet 74d332c13b net: extend net_device allocation to vmalloc()
Joby Poriyath provided a xen-netback patch to reduce the size of
xenvif structure as some netdev allocation could fail under
memory pressure/fragmentation.

This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing
any netdev structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed.

As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT
to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.

Eric W. Biederman 5cde282938 net: Separate the close_list and the unreg_list v2
Separate the unreg_list and the close_list in dev_close_many preventing
dev_close_many from permuting the unreg_list.  The permutations of the
unreg_list have resulted in cases where the loopback device is accessed
it has been freed in code such as dst_ifdown.  Resulting in subtle memory
corruption.

This is the second bug from sharing the storage between the close_list
and the unreg_list.  The issues that crop up with sharing are
apparently too subtle to show up in normal testing or usage, so let's
forget about being clever and use two separate lists.

exported to userspace), no netlink message is sent.
Same for IFF_PROMISC and because dev->promiscuity is exported via
IFLA_PROMISCUITY, we may send a netlink message after each change of this

Eric W. Biederman 50624c934d net: Delay default_device_exit_batch until no devices are unregistering v2
There is currently serialization network namespaces exiting and
network devices exiting as the final part of netdev_run_todo does not
happen under the rtnl_lock.  This is compounded by the fact that the
only list of devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo is local to the
netdev_run_todo.

This lack of serialization in extreme cases results in network devices
unregistering in netdev_run_todo after the loopback device of their
network namespace has been freed (making dst_ifdown unsafe), and after
the their network namespace has exited (making the NETDEV_UNREGISTER,
and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL callbacks unsafe).

Add the missing serialization by a per network namespace count of how
many network devices are unregistering and having a wait queue that is
woken up whenever the count is decreased.  The count and wait queue
allow default_device_exit_batch to wait until all of the unregistration
activity for a network namespace has finished before proceeding to
unregister the loopback device and then allowing the network namespace
to exit.

Only a single global wait queue is used because there is a single global
lock, and there is a single waiter, per network namespace wait queues
would be a waste of resources.

The per network namespace count of unregistering devices gives a
progress guarantee because the number of network devices unregistering
in an exiting network namespace must ultimately drop to zero (assuming
network device unregistration completes).

The basic logic remains the same as in v1.  This patch is now half
comment and half rtnl_lock_unregistering an expanded version of
wait_event performs no extra work in the common case where no network
devices are unregistering when we get to default_device_exit_batch.

Veaceslav Falico 2f268f129c net: add adj_list to save only neighbours
Currently, we distinguish neighbours (first-level linked devices) from
non-neighbours by the neighbour bool in the netdev_adjacent. This could be
quite time-consuming in case we would like to traverse *only* through
neighbours - cause we'd have to traverse through all devices and check for
this flag, and in a (quite common) scenario where we have lots of vlans on
top of bridge, which is on top of a bond - the bonding would have to go
through all those vlans to get its upper neighbour linked devices.

This situation is really unpleasant, cause there are already a lot of cases
when a device with slaves needs to go through them in hot path.

To fix this, introduce a new upper/lower device lists structure -
adj_list, which contains only the neighbours. It works always in
pair with the all_adj_list structure (renamed from upper/lower_dev_list),
i.e. both of them contain the same links, only that all_adj_list contains
also non-neighbour device links. It's really a small change visible,
currently, only for __netdev_adjacent_dev_insert/remove(), and doesn't
change the main linked logic at all.

Also, add some comments a fix a name collision in
netdev_for_each_upper_dev_rcu() and rework the naming by the following
rules:

netdev_(all_)(upper|lower)_*

If "all_" is present, then we work with the whole list of upper/lower
devices, otherwise - only with direct neighbours. Uninline functions - to
get better stack traces.

Veaceslav Falico 5d261913ca net: add lower_dev_list to net_device and make a full mesh
This patch adds lower_dev_list list_head to net_device, which is the same
as upper_dev_list, only for lower devices, and begins to use it in the same
way as the upper list.

It also changes the way the whole adjacent device lists work - now they
contain *all* of upper/lower devices, not only the first level. The first
level devices are distinguished by the bool neighbour field in
netdev_adjacent, also added by this patch.

There are cases when a device can be added several times to the adjacent
list, the simplest would be:

     /---- eth0.10 ---\
eth0-		       --- bond0
     \---- eth0.20 ---/

where both bond0 and eth0 'see' each other in the adjacent lists two times.
To avoid duplication of netdev_adjacent structures ref_nr is being kept as
the number of times the device was added to the list.

The 'full view' is achieved by adding, on link creation, all of the
upper_dev's upper_dev_list devices as upper devices to all of the
lower_dev's lower_dev_list devices (and to the lower_dev itself), and vice
versa. On unlink they are removed using the same logic.

I've tested it with thousands vlans/bonds/bridges, everything works ok and
no observable lags even on a huge number of interfaces.

Memory footprint for 128 devices interconnected with each other via both
upper and lower (which is impossible, but for the comparison) lists would be:

128*128*2*sizeof(netdev_adjacent) = 1.5MB

but in the real world we usualy have at most several devices with slaves
and a lot of vlans, so the footprint will be much lower.

Eric Dumazet d4b812dea4 vlan: mask vlan prio bits
In commit 48cc32d38a
("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols")
Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST
if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this
particular id.

But we also have a problem if prio bits are set.

Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a
vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device,
because skb->vlan_tci is set.

Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000)
being inserted in the middle of IPv6 source address :

16:48:00.780413 IP6 2001:16d8:8100:4000:ee1c:0:9d9:bc87 >

       0x0030:  2425 2627 2829 2a2b 2c2d 2e2f 3031 3233

It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now.

We can probably do better in future kernels :
vlan_get_ingress_priority() should be a netdev property instead of
a per vlan_dev one.

For stable kernels, lets clear vlan_tci to fix the bugs.

Alexander Duyck cdbaa0bb26 gso: Update tunnel segmentation to support Tx checksum offload
This change makes it so that the GRE and VXLAN tunnels can make use of Tx
checksum offload support provided by some drivers via the hw_enc_features.
Without this fix enabling GSO means sacrificing Tx checksum offload and
this actually leads to a performance regression as shown below:

            Utilization
            Send
Throughput  local         GSO
10^6bits/s  % S           state
  6276.51   8.39          enabled
  7123.52   8.42          disabled

To resolve this it was necessary to address two items.  First
netif_skb_features needed to be updated so that it would correctly handle
the Trans Ether Bridging protocol without impacting the need to check for
Q-in-Q tagging.  To do this it was necessary to update harmonize_features
so that it used skb_network_protocol instead of just using the outer
protocol.

Second it was necessary to update the GRE and UDP tunnel segmentation
offloads so that they would reset the encapsulation bit and inner header
offsets after the offload was complete.

As a result of this change I have seen the following results on a interface
with Tx checksum enabled for encapsulated frames:

            Utilization
            Send
Throughput  local         GSO
10^6bits/s  % S           state
  7123.52   8.42          disabled
  8321.75   5.43          enabled

v2: Instead of replacing refrence to skb->protocol with
    skb_network_protocol just replace the protocol reference in
    harmonize_features to allow for double VLAN tag checks.

Nicolas Schichan 5dbe7c178d net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.
When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the
rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue
to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a
SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to
the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the
writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the
devnet_rename_seq sequence.

This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name())
and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and
SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt.

The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid
spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become
even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying
the access to give the writer process a chance to finish.

The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the
reader process in the contended case, but this is better than
deadlocking the system.

Simon Horman 0d89d2035f MPLS: Add limited GSO support
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

SKB Usage:

When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:

* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
  skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.

* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.

* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
  end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.

I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.

Features:

I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.

This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.

A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.

Alternate Implementation:

One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().

I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.

MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.

Willem de Bruijn 99bbc70741 rps: selective flow shedding during softnet overflow
A cpu executing the network receive path sheds packets when its input
queue grows to netdev_max_backlog. A single high rate flow (such as a
spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will
degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu.

This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog
is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of
each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured
by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets
from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this
(set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold.

Tested:
Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0,
kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7
each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps
antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is
dropped and the server processes its complete load.

The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the
bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is
reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet
socket tap, ..).

The e{uid,gid} --> {uid,gid} credentials fix conflicted with the
cleanup in net-next to now pass cred structs around.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN
interface changes by Patrick McHardy in net-next.

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that
code.

Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
argument.

Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO
rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

Thanks to Stephen Rothwell and Antonio Quartulli for help with several
of these merge resolutions.

Patrick McHardy 124dff01af netfilter: don't reset nf_trace in nf_reset()
Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code
to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary.

nf_reset() is used in the following cases:

- when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to
  release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while
  the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point.

- when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue
  tracing these packets after IPsec processing.

- when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on
  that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not
  used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should
  be traced after that, however we've always done that.

- when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the
  packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases
  where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the
  original patch intended to fix.

Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to
fix this properly.

Eric Dumazet 00cfec3748 net: add a synchronize_net() in netdev_rx_handler_unregister()
commit 35d48903e9 (bonding: fix rx_handler locking) added a race
in bonding driver, reported by Steven Rostedt who did a very good
diagnosis :

<quoting Steven>

I'm currently debugging a crash in an old 3.0-rt kernel that one of our
customers is seeing. The bug happens with a stress test that loads and
unloads the bonding module in a loop (I don't know all the details as
I'm not the one that is directly interacting with the customer). But the
bug looks to be something that may still be present and possibly present
in mainline too. It will just be much harder to trigger it in mainline.

In -rt, interrupts are threads, and can schedule in and out just like
any other thread. Note, mainline now supports interrupt threads so this
may be easily reproducible in mainline as well. I don't have the ability
to tell the customer to try mainline or other kernels, so my hands are
somewhat tied to what I can do.

But according to a core dump, I tracked down that the eth irq thread
crashed in bond_handle_frame() here:

        slave = bond_slave_get_rcu(skb->dev);
        bond = slave->bond; <--- BUG

the slave returned was NULL and accessing slave->bond caused a NULL
pointer dereference.

Looking at the code that unregisters the handler:

void netdev_rx_handler_unregister(struct net_device *dev)
{

        ASSERT_RTNL();
        RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->rx_handler, NULL);
        RCU_INIT_POINTER(dev->rx_handler_data, NULL);
}

Which is basically:
        dev->rx_handler = NULL;
        dev->rx_handler_data = NULL;

And looking at __netif_receive_skb() we have:

        rx_handler = rcu_dereference(skb->dev->rx_handler);
        if (rx_handler) {
                if (pt_prev) {
                        ret = deliver_skb(skb, pt_prev, orig_dev);
                        pt_prev = NULL;
                }
                switch (rx_handler(&skb)) {

My question to all of you is, what stops this interrupt from happening
while the bonding module is unloading?  What happens if the interrupt
triggers and we have this:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
  rx_handler = skb->dev->rx_handler

                        netdev_rx_handler_unregister() {
                           dev->rx_handler = NULL;
                           dev->rx_handler_data = NULL;

  rx_handler()
   bond_handle_frame() {
    slave = skb->dev->rx_handler;
    bond = slave->bond; <-- NULL pointer dereference!!!

What protection am I missing in the bond release handler that would
prevent the above from happening?

</quoting Steven>

We can fix bug this in two ways. First is adding a test in
bond_handle_frame() and others to check if rx_handler_data is NULL.

A second way is adding a synchronize_net() in
netdev_rx_handler_unregister() to make sure that a rcu protected reader
has the guarantee to see a non NULL rx_handler_data.

The second way is better as it avoids an extra test in fast path.

Its safe at this point because the parent socket owns a reference
on the netstamp_needed, so we cant have a 0 -> 1 transition, which
requires to lock a mutex.

Instead of refining the check, lets remove it, as all known callers
are safe. If it ever changes in the future, static_key_slow_inc()
will complain anyway.

Sasha Levin b67bfe0d42 hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Alexander Duyck 2bb60cb9b7 net: Fix locking bug in netif_set_xps_queue
Smatch found a locking bug in netif_set_xps_queue in which we were not
releasing the lock in the case of an allocation failure.

This change corrects that so that we release the xps_map_mutex before
returning -ENOMEM in the case of an allocation failure.

skb_gso_segment() can segment GRE packets.
SKB GSO CB is added to keep track of total header length so that
skb_segment can push entire header. e.g. in case of GRE, skb_segment

New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW

Neil Horman ca99ca14c9 netpoll: protect napi_poll and poll_controller during dev_[open|close]
Ivan Vercera was recently backporting commit
9c13cb8bb4 to a RHEL kernel, and I noticed that,
while this patch protects the tg3 driver from having its ndo_poll_controller
routine called during device initalization, it does nothing for the driver
during shutdown. I.e. it would be entirely possible to have the
ndo_poll_controller method (or subsequently the ndo_poll) routine called for a
driver in the netpoll path on CPU A while in parallel on CPU B, the ndo_close or
ndo_open routine could be called.  Given that the two latter routines tend to
initizlize and free many data structures that the former two rely on, the result
can easily be data corruption or various other crashes.  Furthermore, it seems
that this is potentially a problem with all net drivers that support netpoll,
and so this should ideally be fixed in a common path.

As Ben H Pointed out to me, we can't preform dev_open/dev_close in atomic
context, so I've come up with this solution.  We can use a mutex to sleep in
open/close paths and just do a mutex_trylock in the napi poll path and abandon
the poll attempt if we're locked, as we'll just retry the poll on the next send
anyway.

I've tested this here by flooding netconsole with messages on a system whos nic
driver I modfied to periodically return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so that the netpoll tx
workqueue would be forced to send frames and poll the device.  While this was
going on I rapidly ifdown/up'ed the interface and watched for any problems.
I've not found any.

Eric Dumazet cef401de7b net: fix possible wrong checksum generation
Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate
wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten
by the user between the checksum computation and transmit.

He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be
avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg().

This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set
in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be
modified by the user.

Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(),
sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

Tested:

$ netperf -H 7.7.8.84
MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to

Performance of the SENDFILE is impacted by the extra allocation and
copy, and because we use order-0 pages, while the TCP_STREAM uses
bigger pages.

Stanislaw Gruszka d07d7507bf net, wireless: overwrite default_ethtool_ops
Since:

commit 2c60db0370
Author: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
Date:   Sun Sep 16 09:17:26 2012 +0000

    net: provide a default dev->ethtool_ops

wireless core does not correctly assign ethtool_ops.

After alloc_netdev*() call, some cfg80211 drivers provide they own
ethtool_ops, but some do not. For them, wireless core provide generic
cfg80211_ethtool_ops, which is assigned in NETDEV_REGISTER notify call:

        if (!dev->ethtool_ops)
                dev->ethtool_ops = &cfg80211_ethtool_ops;

But after Eric's commit, dev->ethtool_ops is no longer NULL (on cfg80211
drivers without custom ethtool_ops), but points to &default_ethtool_ops.

In order to fix the problem, provide function which will overwrite
default_ethtool_ops and use it by wireless core.

Alexander Duyck 01c5f864e6 net: Rewrite netif_set_xps_queues to address several issues
This change is meant to address several issues I found within the
netif_set_xps_queues function.

If the allocation of one of the maps to be assigned to new_dev_maps failed
we could end up with the device map in an inconsistent state since we had
already worked through a number of CPUs and removed or added the queue.  To
address that I split the process into several steps.  The first of which is
just the allocation of updated maps for CPUs that will need larger maps to
store the queue.  By doing this we can fail gracefully without actually
altering the contents of the current device map.

The second issue I found was the fact that we were always allocating a new
device map even if we were not adding any queues.  I have updated the code
so that we only allocate a new device map if we are adding queues,
otherwise if we are not adding any queues to CPUs we just skip to the
removal process.

The last change I made was to reuse the code from remove_xps_queue to remove
the queue from the CPU.  By making this change we can be consistent in how
we go about adding and removing the queues from the CPUs.

items I noticed.

First is the fact that we are doing removal of queues in both
netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queue.  Since there is no need to
have the code in two places I am pushing it out into a separate function
and will come back in another patch and reuse the code in
netif_set_xps_queue.

The second item this change addresses is the fact that the Tx queues were
not getting their numa_node value cleared as a part of the XPS queue reset.
This patch resolves that by resetting the numa_node value if the dev_maps
value is set.

This patch adds two functions, netif_reset_xps_queue and
netif_set_xps_queue.  The main idea behind these two functions is to
provide a mechanism through which drivers can update their defaults in
regards to XPS.

Currently no such mechanism exists and as a result we cannot use XPS for
things such as ATR which would require a basic configuration to start in
which the Tx queues are mapped to CPUs via a 1:1 mapping.  With this change
I am making it possible for drivers such as ixgbe to be able to use the XPS
feature by controlling the default configuration.

Eric Dumazet 1def9238d4 net_sched: more precise pkt_len computation
One long standing problem with TSO/GSO/GRO packets is that skb->len
doesn't represent a precise amount of bytes on wire.

Headers are only accounted for the first segment.
For TCP, thats typically 66 bytes per 1448 bytes segment missing,
an error of 4.5 % for normal MSS value.

As consequences :

1) TBF/CBQ/HTB/NETEM/... can send more bytes than the assigned limits.
2) Device stats are slightly under estimated as well.

Fix this by taking account of headers in qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len
computation.

Packet schedulers should use qdisc pkt_len instead of skb->len for their
bandwidth limitations, and TSO enabled devices drivers could use pkt_len
if their statistics are not hardware assisted, and if they don't scratch
skb->cb[] first word.

Both egress and ingress paths work, thanks to commit fda55eca5a
(net: introduce skb_transport_header_was_set()) : If GRO built
a GSO packet, it also set the transport header for us.

Eric Dumazet c3c7c254b2 net: gro: fix possible panic in skb_gro_receive()
commit 2e71a6f808 (net: gro: selective flush of packets) added
a bug for skbs using frag_list. This part of the GRO stack is rarely
used, as it needs skb not using a page fragment for their skb->head.

Most drivers do use a page fragment, but some of them use GFP_KERNEL
allocations for the initial fill of their RX ring buffer.

napi_gro_flush() overwrite skb->prev that was used for these skb to
point to the last skb in frag_list.

Fix this using a separate field in struct napi_gro_cb to point to the
last fragment.

Serge Hallyn 4e66ae2ea3 net: dev_change_net_namespace: send a KOBJ_REMOVED/KOBJ_ADD
When a new nic is created in namespace ns1, the kernel sends a KOBJ_ADD uevent
to ns1.  When the nic is moved to ns2, we only send a KOBJ_MOVE to ns2, and
nothing to ns1.

This patch changes that behavior so that when moving a nic from ns1 to ns2, we
send a KOBJ_REMOVED to ns1 and KOBJ_ADD to ns2.  (The KOBJ_MOVE is still
sent to ns2).

The effects of this can be seen when starting and stopping containers in
an upstart based host.  Lxc will create a pair of veth nics, the kernel
sends KOBJ_ADD, and upstart starts network-instance jobs for each.  When
one nic is moved to the container, because no KOBJ_REMOVED event is
received, the network-instance job for that veth never goes away.  This
was reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1065589
With this patch the networ-instance jobs properly go away.

The other oddness solved here is that if a nic is passed into a running
upstart-based container, without this patch no network-instance job is
started in the container.  But when the container creates a new nic
itself (ip link add new type veth) then network-interface jobs are
created.  With this patch, behavior comes in line with a regular host.

v2: also send KOBJ_ADD to new netns.  There will then be a
_MOVE event from the device_rename() call, but that should
be innocuous.

Brian Haley c91f6df2db sockopt: Change getsockopt() of SO_BINDTODEVICE to return an interface name
Instead of having the getsockopt() of SO_BINDTODEVICE return an index, which
will then require another call like if_indextoname() to get the actual interface
name, have it return the name directly.

This also matches the existing man page description on socket(7) which mentions
the argument being an interface name.

If the value has not been set, zero is returned and optlen will be set to zero
to indicate there is no interface name present.

Added a seqlock to protect this code path, and dev_ifname(), from someone
changing the device name via dev_change_name().

Florian Zumbiehl 48cc32d38a vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols
6a32e4f9dd made the vlan code skip marking
vlan-tagged frames for not locally configured vlans as PACKET_OTHERHOST if
there was an rx_handler, as the rx_handler could cause the frame to be received
on a different (virtual) vlan-capable interface where that vlan might be
configured.

As rx_handlers do not necessarily return RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, this could cause
frames for unknown vlans to be delivered to the protocol stack as if they had
been received untagged.

For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not
configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached,
macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the
macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading
to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those
are completely unusable on the underlying interface.

The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the
rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards,
before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether
there is an rx_handler or not.

Eric Dumazet 2e71a6f808 net: gro: selective flush of packets
Current GRO can hold packets in gro_list for almost unlimited
time, in case napi->poll() handler consumes its budget over and over.

In this case, napi_complete()/napi_gro_flush() are not called.

Another problem is that gro_list is flushed in non friendly way :
We scan the list and complete packets in the reverse order.
(youngest packets first, oldest packets last)
This defeats priorities that sender could have cooked.

Since GRO currently only store TCP packets, we dont really notice the
bug because of retransmits, but this behavior can add unexpected
latencies, particularly on mice flows clamped by elephant flows.

This patch makes sure no packet can stay more than 1 ms in queue, and
only in stress situations.

It also complete packets in the right order to minimize latencies.

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace
  support.  This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces
  enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user
  namespace.  Everything is converted except for the most complex of the
  filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs,
  nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review.

  The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into
  subsystems and filesystems as reasonable.  Leaving the make_kuid and
  from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values
  come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network.
  Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user
  namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues.

  The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit
  union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int.
  Those places were converted into explicit unions.  I made certain to
  handle those places with simple trivial patches.

  Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing
  quota by projid.  I had never heard of the project identifiers before.
  Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts
  for most of the code size growth in my git tree.

  Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from
  "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing
  root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to
  non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications.

  While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code
  I made a few other cleanups.  I capitalized on the fact we process
  netlink messages in the context of the message sender.  I removed
  usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.

  Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no
  problems from identical code from different trees showing up in
  linux-next.

  After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to
  win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

Ed Cashin c0d680e577 net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksum
A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have
inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of
network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA
over Ethernet (AoE).  Below is a reference to the commit that
introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter
gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the
ethernet protocol of an sk buff.

  commit f01a5236bd
  Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
  Date:   Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000

      net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().

The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a
protocol that does not require checksumming.  Calling it for a
protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate.

The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when
the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced
to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE
packets.  Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance
and increased memory pressure, as reported here:

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html

The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because
only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the
ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset
recently included in the mm tree:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140

The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of
greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the
newest kernels.

Chema Gonzalez 6862234238 net: small bug on rxhash calculation
In the current rxhash calculation function, while the
sorting of the ports/addrs is coherent (you get the
same rxhash for packets sharing the same 4-tuple, in
both directions), ports and addrs are sorted
independently. This implies packets from a connection
between the same addresses but crossed ports hash to
the same rxhash.

For example, traffic between A=S:l and B=L:s is hashed
(in both directions) from {L, S, {s, l}}. The same
rxhash is obtained for packets between C=S:s and D=L:l.

This patch ensures that you either swap both addrs and ports,
or you swap none. Traffic between A and B, and traffic
between C and D, get their rxhash from different sources
({L, S, {l, s}} for A<->B, and {L, S, {s, l}} for C<->D)

Gao feng 6549dd43c0 net: dev: fix the incorrect hold of net namespace's lo device
When moving a net device from one net namespace to another
net namespace,dev_change_net_namespace calls NETDEV_DOWN
event,so the original net namespace's dst entries which
beloned to this net device will be put into dst_garbage
list.

then dev_change_net_namespace will set this net device's
net to the new net namespace.

If we unregister this net device's driver, this will trigger
the NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event, dst_ifdown will be called,
and get this net device's dst entries from dst_garbage list,
put these entries' dev to the new net namespace's lo device.

It's not what we want,actually we need these dst entries hold
the original net namespace's lo device,this incorrect device
holding will trigger emg message like below.
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1

so we should call NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event in
dev_change_net_namespace too,in order to make sure dst entries
already in the dst_garbage list, we need rcu_barrier before we
call NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event.

Ben Hutchings 8f4cccbbd9 net: Set device operstate at registration time
The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated
asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state
reported by the driver.  The default carrier state of a net device is
on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support
carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN.

For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the
carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the
device is opened.  However, we must not activate linkwatch for a
unregistered device, and commit b473001 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch
events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't.  But
this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier
detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN.

The same issue exists with the dormant state.

The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of
the device, is:

        rtnl_lock();
        rc = register_netdevice(dev);
        if (rc)
                goto out_unlock;
        netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */
        rtnl_unlock();

but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many
drivers.  Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the
device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of
linkwatch.

Commit 22604c8 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted
to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was
reverted as it could lead to deadlock.

This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time
only.

Eric Dumazet 0115e8e30d net: remove delay at device dismantle
I noticed extra one second delay in device dismantle, tracked down to
a call to dst_dev_event() while some call_rcu() are still in RCU queues.

These call_rcu() were posted by rt_free(struct rtable *rt) calls.

We then wait a little (but one second) in netdev_wait_allrefs() before
kicking again NETDEV_UNREGISTER.

As the call_rcu() are now completed, dst_dev_event() can do the needed
device swap on busy dst.

To solve this problem, add a new NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL, called
after a rcu_barrier(), but outside of RTNL lock.

Use NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL with care !

Change dst_dev_event() handler to react to NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL

Also remove NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH, as its not used anymore after
IP cache removal.

Eric Leblond c0de08d042 af_packet: don't emit packet on orig fanout group
If a packet is emitted on one socket in one group of fanout sockets,
it is transmitted again. It is thus read again on one of the sockets
of the fanout group. This result in a loop for software which
generate packets when receiving one.
This retransmission is not the intended behavior: a fanout group
must behave like a single socket. The packet should not be
transmitted on a socket if it originates from a socket belonging
to the same fanout group.

This patch fixes the issue by changing the transmission check to
take fanout group info account.

Strictly speaking this is only _really_ required for checkpoint-restore to

This change appears to be safe wrt "ifindex should be unique per-system"
concept, as all the ifindex usage is either already made per net namespace
of is explicitly limited with init_net only.

There are two cool side effects of this. The first one -- ifindices of
devices in container are always small, regardless of how many containers
we've started (and re-started) so far. The second one is -- we can speed
up the loopback ifidex access as shown in the next patch.

Ben Hutchings 30b678d844 net: Allow driver to limit number of GSO segments per skb
A peer (or local user) may cause TCP to use a nominal MSS of as little
as 88 (actual MSS of 76 with timestamps).  Given that we have a
sufficiently prodigious local sender and the peer ACKs quickly enough,
it is nevertheless possible to grow the window for such a connection
to the point that we will try to send just under 64K at once.  This
results in a single skb that expands to 861 segments.

In some drivers with TSO support, such an skb will require hundreds of
DMA descriptors; a substantial fraction of a TX ring or even more than
a full ring.  The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger
the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried
after the TX reset).  This particularly affects sfc, for which the
issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412.

Therefore:
1. Add the field net_device::gso_max_segs holding the device-specific
   limit.
2. In netif_skb_features(), if the number of segments is too high then
   mask out GSO features to force fall back to software GSO.

Mel Gorman b4b9e35585 netvm: set PF_MEMALLOC as appropriate during SKB processing
In order to make sure pfmemalloc packets receive all memory needed to
proceed, ensure processing of pfmemalloc SKBs happens under PF_MEMALLOC.
This is limited to a subset of protocols that are expected to be used for
writing to swap.  Taps are not allowed to use PF_MEMALLOC as these are
expected to communicate with userspace processes which could be paged out.

Eric Dumazet 62b1a8ab9b net: remove skb_orphan_try()
Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior
unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets
pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full
qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically
throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming
sk_sndbuf is not too big)

We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in
dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain,
now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked
in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance
matters.

Michel Machado 95603e2293 net-next: add dev_loopback_xmit() to avoid duplicate code
Add dev_loopback_xmit() in order to deduplicate functions
ip_dev_loopback_xmit() (in net/ipv4/ip_output.c) and
ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() (in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c).

I was about to reinvent the wheel when I noticed that
ip_dev_loopback_xmit() and ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() do exactly what I
need and are not IP-only functions, but they were not available to reuse
elsewhere.

ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() does not have line "skb_dst_force(skb);", but I
understand that this is harmless, and should be in dev_loopback_xmit().
