Sebastian Siewior a0a9663dd2 net: make neigh_priv_len in struct net_device 16bit instead of 8bit
neigh_priv_len is defined as u8. With all debug enabled struct
ipoib_neigh has 200 bytes. The largest part is sk_buff_head with 96
bytes and here the spinlock with 72 bytes.
The size value still fits in this u8 leaving some room for more.

On -RT struct ipoib_neigh put on weight and has 392 bytes. The main
reason is sk_buff_head with 288 and the fatty here is spinlock with 192
bytes. This does no longer fit into into neigh_priv_len and gcc
complains.

This patch changes neigh_priv_len from being 8bit to 16bit. Since the
following element (dev_id) is 16bit followed by a spinlock which is
aligned, the struct remains with a total size of 3200 (allmodconfig) /
2048 (with as much debug off as possible) bytes on x86-64.
On x86-32 the struct is 1856 (allmodconfig) / 1216 (with as much debug
off as possible) bytes long. The numbers were gained with and without
the patch to prove that this change does not increase the size of the
struct.

Linus Torvalds 42a2d923cc Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) The addition of nftables.  No longer will we need protocol aware
    firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.

    At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
    machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
    (arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.

    Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
    interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
    fundamental operations.  For example sets are supports, and
    therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
    which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
    byte codes to do such lookups.

    Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
    do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.

    Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
    portions of the ruleset.  In the existing netfilter implementation,
    one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
    this is very expensive.

    Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
    netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
    co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
    new stuff.

    Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
    worked so hard on this.

 2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
    to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
    UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.

    In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
    cases are added.

 3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
    and Yang Yingliang.

 4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
    Sujir.

 5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
    Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.

 6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
    control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
    From Francesco Fusco.

 7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
    automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
    SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option.  From Eric Dumazet.

 8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
    reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
    can do it for connected UDP sockets too.  Implementation from Shawn
    Bohrer.

10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
    performance for listening sockets.  With the main goals being able
    to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
    listening lock contention.  From Eric Dumazet.

11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
    conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
    RCU usage to even more locations.  From Ding Tianhong and Wang
    Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
    Falico.

12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
    segmentation offloading over tunnels.  From Eric Dumazet.

13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
    various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
    well as syncookies.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.  The key fundamental
    operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.

    Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
    our generic flow dissector.

14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
    NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
    explicitly set it to NULL any more.  Many drivers have been cleaned
    up in this way, from Jingoo Han.

15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.

16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
    SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled.  Also from Daniel
    Borkmann.

17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
    using the interface MTU value.  This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
    particularly on DNS servers.  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
    (re-)implementation in virtio-net.  From Jason Wang.

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.

Tejun Heo 58292cbe66 sysfs: make attr namespace interface less convoluted
sysfs ns (namespace) implementation became more convoluted than
necessary while trying to hide ns information from visible interface.
The relatively recent attr ns support is a good example.

* attr ns tag is determined by sysfs_ops->namespace() callback while
  dir tag is determined by kobj_type->namespace().  The placement is
  arbitrary.

* Instead of performing operations with explicit ns tag, the namespace
  callback is routed through sysfs_attr_ns(), sysfs_ops->namespace(),
  class_attr_namespace(), class_attr->namespace().  It's not simpler
  in any sense.  The only thing this convolution does is traversing
  the whole stack backwards.

The namespace callbacks are unncessary because the operations involved
are inherently synchronous.  The information can be provided in in
straight-forward top-down direction and reversing that direction is
unnecessary and against basic design principles.

This backward interface is unnecessarily convoluted and hinders
properly separating out sysfs from driver model / kobject for proper
layering.  This patch updates attr ns support such that

* sysfs_ops->namespace() and class_attr->namespace() are dropped.

* sysfs_{create|remove}_file_ns(), which take explicit @ns param, are
  added and sysfs_{create|remove}_file() are now simple wrappers
  around the ns aware functions.

* ns handling is dropped from sysfs_chmod_file().  Nobody uses it at
  this point.  sysfs_chmod_file_ns() can be added later if necessary.

* Explicit @ns is propagated through class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
  and netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns().

* driver/net/bonding which is currently the only user of attr
  namespace is updated to use netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
  with @bh->net as the ns tag instead of using the namespace callback.

This patch should be an equivalent conversion without any functional
difference.  It makes the code easier to follow, reduces lines of code
a bit and helps proper separation and layering.

Veaceslav Falico 402dae9614 net: add netdev_adjacent->private and allow to use it
Currently, even though we can access any linked device, we can't attach

slave structures there, per slave device.

netdev_master_upper_dev_link_private(dev, upper_dev, private) links dev to
upper dev and populates the neighbour link only with private.

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.

Joseph Gasparakis 53cf527513 vxlan: Notify drivers for listening UDP port changes
This patch adds two more ndo ops: ndo_add_rx_vxlan_port() and
ndo_del_rx_vxlan_port().

Drivers can get notifications through the above functions about changes
of the UDP listening port of VXLAN. Also, when physical ports come up,
now they can call vxlan_get_rx_port() in order to obtain the port number(s)
of the existing VXLAN interface in case they already up before them.

This information about the listening UDP port would be used for VXLAN
related offloads.

A big thank you to John Fastabend (john.r.fastabend@intel.com) for his

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.

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.

Willem de Bruijn 5f121b9a83 net-rps: fixes for rps flow limit
Caught by sparse:
- __rcu: missing annotation to sd->flow_limit
- __user: direct access in cpumask_scnprintf

Also
- add endline character when printing bitmap if room in buffer
- avoid bucket overflow by reducing FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY

The last item warrants some explanation. The hashtable buckets are
subject to overflow if FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY is larger than or equal
to bucket size, since all packets may end up in a single bucket. The
current (rather arbitrary) history value of 256 happens to match the
buffer size (u8).

As a result, with a single flow, the first 128 packets are accepted
(correct), the second 128 packets dropped (correct) and then the
history[] array has filled, so that each subsequent new packet
causes an increment in the bucket for new_flow plus a decrement
for old_flow: a steady state.

This is fine if packets are dropped, as the steady state goes away
as soon as a mix of traffic reappears. But, because the 256th packet
overflowed the bucket to 0: no packets are dropped.

Instead of explicitly adding an overflow check, this patch changes
FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY to never be able to overflow a single bucket.

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, ..).
