David Howells 372ee16386 rxrpc: Fix races between skb free, ACK generation and replying
Inside the kafs filesystem it is possible to occasionally have a call
processed and terminated before we've had a chance to check whether we need
to clean up the rx queue for that call because afs_send_simple_reply() ends
the call when it is done, but this is done in a workqueue item that might
happen to run to completion before afs_deliver_to_call() completes.

Further, it is possible for rxrpc_kernel_send_data() to be called to send a
reply before the last request-phase data skb is released.  The rxrpc skb
destructor is where the ACK processing is done and the call state is
advanced upon release of the last skb.  ACK generation is also deferred to
a work item because it's possible that the skb destructor is not called in
a context where kernel_sendmsg() can be invoked.

To this end, the following changes are made:

 (1) kernel_rxrpc_data_consumed() is added.  This should be called whenever
     an skb is emptied so as to crank the ACK and call states.  This does
     not release the skb, however.  kernel_rxrpc_free_skb() must now be
     called to achieve that.  These together replace
     rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered().

 (2) kernel_rxrpc_data_consumed() is wrapped by afs_data_consumed().

     This makes afs_deliver_to_call() easier to work as the skb can simply
     be discarded unconditionally here without trying to work out what the
     return value of the ->deliver() function means.

     The ->deliver() functions can, via afs_data_complete(),
     afs_transfer_reply() and afs_extract_data() mark that an skb has been
     consumed (thereby cranking the state) without the need to
     conditionally free the skb to make sure the state is correct on an
     incoming call for when the call processor tries to send the reply.

 (3) rxrpc_recvmsg() now has to call kernel_rxrpc_data_consumed() when it
     has finished with a packet and MSG_PEEK isn't set.

 (4) rxrpc_packet_destructor() no longer calls rxrpc_hard_ACK_data().

     Because of this, we no longer need to clear the destructor and put the
     call before we free the skb in cases where we don't want the ACK/call
     state to be cranked.

 (5) The ->deliver() call-type callbacks are made to return -EAGAIN rather
     than 0 if they expect more data (afs_extract_data() returns -EAGAIN to
     the delivery function already), and the caller is now responsible for
     producing an abort if that was the last packet.

 (6) There are many bits of unmarshalling code where:

 		ret = afs_extract_data(call, skb, last, ...);
		switch (ret) {
		case 0:		break;
		case -EAGAIN:	return 0;
		default:	return ret;
		}

     is to be found.  As -EAGAIN can now be passed back to the caller, we
     now just return if ret < 0:

 		ret = afs_extract_data(call, skb, last, ...);
		if (ret < 0)
			return ret;

 (7) Checks for trailing data and empty final data packets has been
     consolidated as afs_data_complete().  So:

		if (skb->len > 0)
			return -EBADMSG;
		if (!last)
			return 0;

     becomes:

		ret = afs_data_complete(call, skb, last);
		if (ret < 0)
			return ret;

 (8) afs_transfer_reply() now checks the amount of data it has against the
     amount of data desired and the amount of data in the skb and returns
     an error to induce an abort if we don't get exactly what we want.

Without these changes, the following oops can occasionally be observed,
particularly if some printks are inserted into the delivery path:

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

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

1) Don't use userspace datatypes in bridge netfilter code, from
   Tobin Harding.

2) Iterate only once over the expectation table when removing the
   helper module, instead of once per-netns, from Florian Westphal.

3) Extra sanitization in xt_hook_ops_alloc() to return error in case
   we ever pass zero hooks, xt_hook_ops_alloc():

4) Handle NFPROTO_INET from the logging core infrastructure, from
   Liping Zhang.

5) Autoload loggers when TRACE target is used from rules, this doesn't
   change the behaviour in case the user already selected nfnetlink_log
   as preferred way to print tracing logs, also from Liping Zhang.

6) Conntrack slabs with SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN to allow rearranging fields
   by cache lines, increases the size of entries in 11% per entry.
   From Florian Westphal.

7) Skip zone comparison if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ZONES=n, from Florian.

8) Remove useless defensive check in nf_logger_find_get() from Shivani
   Bhardwaj.

9) Remove zone extension as place it in the conntrack object, this is
   always include in the hashing and we expect more intensive use of
   zones since containers are in place. Also from Florian Westphal.

10) Owner match now works from any namespace, from Eric Bierdeman.

11) Make sure we only reply with TCP reset to TCP traffic from
    nf_reject_ipv4, patch from Liping Zhang.

12) Introduce --nflog-size to indicate amount of network packet bytes
    that are copied to userspace via log message, from Vishwanath Pai.
    This obsoletes --nflog-range that has never worked, it was designed
    to achieve this but it has never worked.

13) Introduce generic macros for nf_tables object generation masks.

14) Use generation mask in table, chain and set objects in nf_tables.
    This allows fixes interferences with ongoing preparation phase of
    the commit protocol and object listings going on at the same time.
    This update is introduced in three patches, one per object.

15) Check if the object is active in the next generation for element
    deactivation in the rbtree implementation, given that deactivation
    happens from the commit phase path we have to observe the future
    status of the object.

16) Support for deletion of just added elements in the hash set type.

17) Allow to resize hashtable from /proc entry, not only from the
    obscure /sys entry that maps to the module parameter, from Florian
    Westphal.

18) Get rid of NFT_BASECHAIN_DISABLED, this code is not exercised
    anymore since we tear down the ruleset whenever the netdevice
    goes away.

19) Support for matching inverted set lookups, from Arturo Borrero.

20) Simplify the iptables_mangle_hook() by removing a superfluous
    extra branch.

21) Introduce ether_addr_equal_masked() and use it from the netfilter
    codebase, from Joe Perches.

22) Remove references to "Use netfilter MARK value as routing key"
    from the Netfilter Kconfig description given that this toggle
    doesn't exists already for 10 years, from Moritz Sichert.

23) Introduce generic NF_INVF() and use it from the xtables codebase,
    from Joe Perches.

24) Setting logger to NONE via /proc was not working unless explicit
    nul-termination was included in the string. This fixes seems to
    leave the former behaviour there, so we don't break backward.

Giuseppe CAVALLARO 70523e639b drivers: net: stmmac: reworking the PCS code.
The 3.xx and 4.xx synopsys gmacs have a very similar
PCS embedded module and they share almost the same registers:
for example:
  AN_Control, AN_Status, AN_Advertisement, AN_Link_Partner_Ability,
  AN_Expansion, TBI_Extended_Status.

Just the RGMII/SMII Control/Status register differs.

So This patch aims to reorganize and enhance the PCS support.
It removes the existent support from the dwmac1000/dwmac4_core.c
moving basic PCS functions inside a new file called: stmmac_pcs.h.

The patch also reviews the available APIs to be better shared among
different hardware and easily enhanced to support new features.

Florian Westphal 3183ab8997 netfilter: conntrack: allow increasing bucket size via sysctl too
No need to restrict this to module parameter.

We export a copy of the real hash size -- when user alters the value we
allocate the new table, copy entries etc before we update the real size
to the requested one.

This is also needed because the real size is used by concurrent readers
and cannot be changed without synchronizing the conntrack generation
seqcnt.

We only allow changing this value from the initial net namespace.

Eric Dumazet edb09eb17e net: sched: do not acquire qdisc spinlock in qdisc/class stats dump
Large tc dumps (tc -s {qdisc|class} sh dev ethX) done by Google BwE host
agent [1] are problematic at scale :

For each qdisc/class found in the dump, we currently lock the root qdisc
spinlock in order to get stats. Sampling stats every 5 seconds from
thousands of HTB classes is a challenge when the root qdisc spinlock is
under high pressure. Not only the dumps take time, they also slow
down the fast path (queue/dequeue packets) by 10 % to 20 % in some cases.

An audit of existing qdiscs showed that sch_fq_codel is the only qdisc
that might need the qdisc lock in fq_codel_dump_stats() and
fq_codel_dump_class_stats()

In v2 of this patch, I now use the Qdisc running seqcount to provide
consistent reads of packets/bytes counters, regardless of 32/64 bit arches.

I also changed rate estimators to use the same infrastructure
so that they no longer need to lock root qdisc lock.

Linus Torvalds e9ad9b9bd3 The most interesting thing (IMO) this time around is some beginning
infrastructural work to allow documents to be written using restructured
 text.  Maybe someday, in a galaxy far far away, we'll be able to eliminate
 the DocBook dependency and have a much better integrated set of kernel
 docs.  Someday.
 
 Beyond that, there's a new document on security hardening from Kees, the
 movement of some sample code over to samples/, a number of improvements to
 the serial docs from Geert, and the usual collection of corrections, typo
 fixes, etc.

Pull Documentation updates from Jon Corbet:
 "A bit busier this time around.

  The most interesting thing (IMO) this time around is some beginning
  infrastructural work to allow documents to be written using
  restructured text.  Maybe someday, in a galaxy far far away, we'll be
  able to eliminate the DocBook dependency and have a much better
  integrated set of kernel docs.  Someday.

  Beyond that, there's a new document on security hardening from Kees,
  the movement of some sample code over to samples/, a number of
  improvements to the serial docs from Geert, and the usual collection
  of corrections, typo fixes, etc"

David Ahern a6db4494d2 net: ipv4: Consider failed nexthops in multipath routes
Multipath route lookups should consider knowledge about next hops and not
select a hop that is known to be failed.

Example:

                     [h2]                   [h3]   15.0.0.5
                      |                      |

                     |  |     /-------------+     |
                     |   \   /                    |

                     |    / \                     |
                     |   /   \---------------\    |
                     1  2                     1   2

                      \                       /
                        \                    /
                         \                  /
                          -------|   |-----/
                                 1   2
                                [TOR3]
                                  3|
                                   |
                                  [h1]  12.0.0.1

host h1 with IP 12.0.0.1 has 2 paths to host h3 at 15.0.0.5:

    root@h1:~# ip ro ls
    ...
    12.0.0.0/24 dev swp1  proto kernel  scope link  src 12.0.0.1
    15.0.0.0/16
            nexthop via 12.0.0.2  dev swp1 weight 1
            nexthop via 12.0.0.3  dev swp1 weight 1
    ...

If the link between tor3 and tor1 is down and the link between tor1
and tor2 then tor1 is effectively cut-off from h1. Yet the route lookups
in h1 are alternating between the 2 routes: ping 15.0.0.5 gets one and
ssh 15.0.0.5 gets the other. Connections that attempt to use the
12.0.0.2 nexthop fail since that neighbor is not reachable:

    root@h1:~# ip neigh show
    ...
    12.0.0.3 dev swp1 lladdr 00:02:00:00:00:1b REACHABLE
    12.0.0.2 dev swp1  FAILED
    ...

The failed path can be avoided by considering known neighbor information
when selecting next hops. If the neighbor lookup fails we have no
knowledge about the nexthop, so give it a shot. If there is an entry
then only select the nexthop if the state is sane. This is similar to
what fib_detect_death does.

To maintain backward compatibility use of the neighbor information is
based on a new sysctl, fib_multipath_use_neigh.

Replace the useless dsa_slave_stp_update function with a

SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_STP_STATE attribute.

In the meantime, rename port_stp_update to port_stp_state_set to

David Ahern f1705ec197 net: ipv6: Make address flushing on ifdown optional
Currently, all ipv6 addresses are flushed when the interface is configured
down, including global, static addresses:

    $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1
    3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000
        inet6 2100:1::2/120 scope global
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
        inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe79:34bd/64 scope link
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    $ ip link set dev eth1 down
    $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1
    << nothing; all addresses have been flushed>>

Add a new sysctl to make this behavior optional. The new setting defaults to
flush all addresses to maintain backwards compatibility. When the set global
addresses with no expire times are not flushed on an admin down. The sysctl
is per-interface or system-wide for all interfaces

    $ sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth1.keep_addr_on_down=1
or
    $ sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.keep_addr_on_down=1

Will keep addresses on eth1 on an admin down.

    $ ip -6 addr show dev eth1
    3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000
        inet6 2100:1::2/120 scope global

        inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe79:34bd/64 scope link

    $ ip link set dev eth1 down

Sven Eckelmann dfdfc2beb0 mac80211: Parse legacy and HT rate in injected frames
Drivers/devices without their own rate control algorithm can get the
information what rates they should use from either the radiotap header of
injected frames or from the rate control algorithm. But the parsing of the
legacy rate information from the radiotap header was removed in commit
e6a9854b05 ("mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API").

The removal of this feature heavily reduced the usefulness of frame
injection when wanting to simulate specific transmission behavior. Having
rate parsing together with MCS rates and retry support allows a fine
grained selection of the tx behavior of injected frames for these kind of
tests.

Some DSA drivers may or may not support multiple software bridges on top
of an hardware switch.

It is more convenient for them to access the bridge's net_device for

Florian Westphal d1b4c689d4 netlink: remove mmapped netlink support
mmapped netlink has a number of unresolved issues:

- TX zerocopy support had to be disabled more than a year ago via
  commit 4682a03586 ("netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.")
  because the content of the mmapped area can change after netlink
  attribute validation but before message processing.

- RX support was implemented mainly to speed up nfqueue dumping packet
  payload to userspace.  However, since commit ae08ce0021
  ("netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: zero copy support") we avoid one copy
  with the socket-based interface too (via the skb_zerocopy helper).

The other problem is that skbs attached to mmaped netlink socket
behave different from normal skbs:

- they don't have a shinfo area, so all functions that use skb_shinfo()
(e.g. skb_clone) cannot be used.

- reserving headroom prevents userspace from seeing the content as
it expects message to start at skb->head.
See for instance
commit aa3a022094 ("netlink: not trim skb for mmaped socket when dump").

- skbs handed e.g. to netlink_ack must have non-NULL skb->sk, else we
crash because it needs the sk to check if a tx ring is attached.

Also not obvious, leads to non-intuitive bug fixes such as 7c7bdf359
("netfilter: nfnetlink: use original skbuff when acking batches").

mmaped netlink also didn't play nicely with the skb_zerocopy helper
used by nfqueue and openvswitch.  Daniel Borkmann fixed this via
commit 6bb0fef489 ("netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue
zero-copy")' but at the cost of also needing to provide remaining
length to the allocation function.

nfqueue also has problems when used with mmaped rx netlink:
- mmaped netlink doesn't allow use of nfqueue batch verdict messages.
  Problem is that in the mmap case, the allocation time also determines
  the ordering in which the frame will be seen by userspace (A
  allocating before B means that A is located in earlier ring slot,
  but this also means that B might get a lower sequence number then A
  since seqno is decided later.  To fix this we would need to extend the
  spinlocked region to also cover the allocation and message setup which
  isn't desirable.
- nfqueue can now be configured to queue large (GSO) skbs to userspace.
  Queing GSO packets is faster than having to force a software segmentation
  in the kernel, so this is a desirable option.  However, with a mmap based
  ring one has to use 64kb per ring slot element, else mmap has to fall back
  to the socket path (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY) for all large packets.

To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink
support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to
handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element.

David Ahern 6dd9a14e92 net: Allow accepted sockets to be bound to l3mdev domain
Allow accepted sockets to derive their sk_bound_dev_if setting from the
l3mdev domain in which the packets originated. A sysctl setting is added
to control the behavior which is similar to sk_mark and
sysctl_tcp_fwmark_accept.

This effectively allow a process to have a "VRF-global" listen socket,
with child sockets bound to the VRF device in which the packet originated.
A similar behavior can be achieved using sk_mark, but a solution using marks
is incomplete as it does not handle duplicate addresses in different L3
domains/VRFs. Allowing sockets to inherit the sk_bound_dev_if from l3mdev
domain provides a complete solution.

====================
pull request (net-next): ipsec-next 2015-10-30

1) The flow cache is limited by the flow cache limit which
   depends on the number of cpus and the xfrm garbage collector
   threshold which is independent of the number of cpus. This
   leads to the fact that on systems with more than 16 cpus
   we hit the xfrm garbage collector limit and refuse new
   allocations, so new flows are dropped. On systems with 16
   or less cpus, we hit the flowcache limit. In this case, we
   shrink the flow cache instead of refusing new flows.

   We increase the xfrm garbage collector threshold to INT_MAX
   to get the same behaviour, independent of the number of cpus.

2) Fix some unaligned accesses on sparc systems.
   From Sowmini Varadhan.

3) Fix some header checks in _decode_session4. We may call
   pskb_may_pull with a negative value converted to unsigened
   int from pskb_may_pull. This can lead to incorrect policy
   lookups. We fix this by a check of the data pointer position
   before we call pskb_may_pull.

4) Reload skb header pointers after calling pskb_may_pull
   in _decode_session4 as this may change the pointers into
   the packet.

5) Add a missing statistic counter on inner mode errors.

Please pull or let me know if there are problems.

Yuchung Cheng 4f41b1c58a tcp: use RACK to detect losses
This patch implements the second half of RACK that uses the the most
recent transmit time among all delivered packets to detect losses.

tcp_rack_mark_lost() is called upon receiving a dubious ACK.
It then checks if an not-yet-sacked packet was sent at least
"reo_wnd" prior to the sent time of the most recently delivered.
If so the packet is deemed lost.

The "reo_wnd" reordering window starts with 1msec for fast loss
detection and changes to min-RTT/4 when reordering is observed.
We found 1msec accommodates well on tiny degree of reordering
(<3 pkts) on faster links. We use min-RTT instead of SRTT because
reordering is more of a path property but SRTT can be inflated by
self-inflicated congestion. The factor of 4 is borrowed from the
delayed early retransmit and seems to work reasonably well.

Since RACK is still experimental, it is now used as a supplemental
loss detection on top of existing algorithms. It is only effective
after the fast recovery starts or after the timeout occurs. The
fast recovery is still triggered by FACK and/or dupack threshold
instead of RACK.

We introduce a new sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_recovery for future
experiments of loss recoveries. For now RACK can be disabled by
setting it to 0.

Yuchung Cheng f672258391 tcp: track min RTT using windowed min-filter
Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum RTT of a
data stream over some measurement window. It uses constant space
and constant time per update. Yet it almost always delivers
the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all
the data in the window. The measurement window is tunable via
sysctl.net.ipv4.tcp_min_rtt_wlen with a default value of 5 minutes.

The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
over the window.

Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
it has no value - the new min is less than everything else in the
window by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh
on every new min and overwrites the 2nd & 3rd choices. The same
property holds for the 2nd & 3rd best.

Therefore we have to maintain two invariants to maximize the
information in the samples, one on values (1st.v <= 2nd.v <=
3rd.v) and the other on times (now-win <=1st.t <= 2nd.t <= 3rd.t <=
now). These invariants determine the structure of the code

The RTT input to the windowed filter is the minimum RTT measured
from ACK or SACK, or as the last resort from TCP timestamps.

The accessor tcp_min_rtt() returns the minimum RTT seen in the
window. ~0U indicates it is not available. The minimum is 1usec
even if the true RTT is below that.

Revert the commit e2ca690b65 ("ipv4/icmp: redirect messages
can use the ingress daddr as source"), which tried to introduce a more
suitable behaviour for ICMP redirect messages generated by VRRP routers.
However RFC 5798 section 8.1.1 states:

    The IPv4 source address of an ICMP redirect should be the address
    that the end-host used when making its next-hop routing decision.

while said commit used the generating packet destination
address, which do not match the above and in most cases leads to
no redirect packets to be generated.

Paolo Abeni e2ca690b65 ipv4/icmp: redirect messages can use the ingress daddr as source
This patch allows configuring how the source address of ICMP
redirect messages is selected; by default the old behaviour is
retained, while setting icmp_redirects_use_orig_daddr force the
usage of the destination address of the packet that caused the
redirect.

The new behaviour fits closely the RFC 5798 section 8.1.1, and fix the
following scenario:

Two machines are set up with VRRP to act as routers out of a subnet,
they have IPs x.x.x.1/24 and x.x.x.2/24, with VRRP holding on to
x.x.x.254/24.

If a host in said subnet needs to get an ICMP redirect from the VRRP
router, i.e. to reach a destination behind a different gateway, the
source IP in the ICMP redirect is chosen as the primary IP on the
interface that the packet arrived at, i.e. x.x.x.1 or x.x.x.2.

The host will then ignore said redirect, due to RFC 1122 section 3.2.2.2,
and will continue to use the wrong next-op.

Steffen Klassert c386578f1c xfrm: Let the flowcache handle its size by default.
The xfrm flowcache size is limited by the flowcache limit
(4096 * number of online cpus) and the xfrm garbage collector
threshold (2 * 32768), whatever is reached first. This means
that we can hit the garbage collector limit only on systems
with more than 16 cpus. On such systems we simply refuse
new allocations if we reach the limit, so new flows are dropped.
On syslems with 16 or less cpus, we hit the flowcache limit.
In this case, we shrink the flow cache instead of refusing new
flows.

We increase the xfrm garbage collector threshold to INT_MAX
to get the same behaviour, independent of the number of cpus.

The xfrm garbage collector threshold can still be set below
the flowcache limit to reduce the memory usage of the flowcache.

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

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next tree
in this 4.4 development cycle, they are:

1) Schedule ICMP traffic to IPVS instances, this introduces a new schedule_icmp
   proc knob to enable/disable it. By default is off to retain the old
   behaviour. Patchset from Alex Gartrell.

I'm also including what Alex originally said for the record:

"The configuration of ipvs at Facebook is relatively straightforward.  All
ipvs instances bgp advertise a set of VIPs and the network prefers the
nearest one or uses ECMP in the event of a tie.  For the uninitiated, ECMP
deterministically and statelessly load balances by hashing the packet
(usually a 5-tuple of protocol, saddr, daddr, sport, and dport) and using
that number as an index (basic hash table type logic).

The problem is that ICMP packets (which contain really important
information like whether or not an MTU has been exceeded) will get a
different hash value and may end up at a different ipvs instance.  With no
information about where to route these packets, they are dropped, creating
ICMP black holes and breaking Path MTU discovery.  Suddenly, my mom's
pictures can't load and I'm fielding midday calls that I want nothing to do
with.

To address this, this patch set introduces the ability to schedule icmp
packets which is gated by a sysctl net.ipv4.vs.schedule_icmp.  If set to 0,
the old behavior is maintained -- otherwise ICMP packets are scheduled."

2) Add another proc entry to ignore tunneled packets to avoid routing loops
   from IPVS, also from Alex.

3) Fifteen patches from Eric Biederman to:

* Stop passing nf_hook_ops as parameter to the hook and use the state hook
  object instead all around the netfilter code, so only the private data
  pointer is passed to the registered hook function.

* Now that we've got state->net, propagate the netns pointer to netfilter hook
  clients to avoid its computation over and over again. A good example of how
  this has been simplified is the former TEE target (now nf_dup infrastructure)
  since it has killed the ugly pick_net() function.

There's another round of netns updates from Eric Biederman making the line. To
avoid the patchbomb again to almost all the networking mailing list (that is 84
patches) I'd suggest we send you a pull request with no patches or let me know
if you prefer a better way.
