2008-11-23dccp: Set per-connection CCIDs via socket optionsGerrit Renker1-0/+5
With this patch, TX/RX CCIDs can now be changed on a per-connection basis, which overrides the defaults set by the global sysctl variables for TX/RX CCIDs. To make full use of this facility, the remaining patches of this patch set are needed, which track dependencies and activate negotiated feature values.

2008-11-20filter: add SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST to look for nested attributesPablo Neira Ayuso1-1/+2
SKF_AD_NLATTR allows us to find the first matching attribute in a stream of netlink attributes from one offset to the end of the netlink message. This is not suitable to look for a specific matching inside a set of nested attributes. For example, in ctnetlink messages, if we look for the CTA_V6_SRC attribute in a message that talks about an IPv4 connection, SKF_AD_NLATTR returns the offset of CTA_STATUS which has the same value of CTA_V6_SRC but outside the nest. To differenciate CTA_STATUS and CTA_V6_SRC, we would have to make assumptions on the size of the attribute and the usual offset, resulting in horrible BSF code. This patch adds SKF_AD_NLATTR_NEST, which is a variant of SKF_AD_NLATTR, that looks for an attribute inside the limits of a nested attributes, but not further. This patch validates that we have enough room to look for the nested attributes - based on a suggestion from Patrick McHardy.

2008-11-19netdev: network device operations infrastructureStephen Hemminger1-64/+168
This patch changes the network device internal API to move adminstrative operations out of the network device structure and into a separate structure. This patch involves some hackery to maintain compatablity between the new and old model, so all 300+ drivers don't have to be changed at once. For drivers that aren't converted yet, the netdevice_ops virt function list still resides in the net_device structure. For old protocols, the new net_device_ops are copied out to the old net_device pointers. After the transistion is completed the nag message can be changed to an WARN_ON, and the compatiablity code can be made configurable. Some function pointers aren't moved: * destructor can't be in net_device_ops because it may need to be referenced after the module is unloaded. * neighbor setup is manipulated in a couple of places that need special consideration * hard_start_xmit is in the fast path for transmit.

2008-11-19cpuset: update top cpuset's mems after adding a nodeMiao Xie1-4/+0
After adding a node into the machine, top cpuset's mems isn't updated. By reviewing the code, we found that the update function cpuset_track_online_nodes() was invoked after node_states[N_ONLINE] changes. It is wrong because N_ONLINE just means node has pgdat, and if node has/added memory, we use N_HIGH_MEMORY. So, We should invoke the update function after node_states[N_HIGH_MEMORY] changes, just like its commit says. This patch fixes it. And we use notifier of memory hotplug instead of direct calling of cpuset_track_online_nodes().

2008-11-19reintroduce accept4Ulrich Drepper2-6/+3
Introduce a new accept4() system call. The addition of this system call matches analogous changes in 2.6.27 (dup3(), evenfd2(), signalfd4(), inotify_init1(), epoll_create1(), pipe2()) which added new system calls that differed from analogous traditional system calls in adding a flags argument that can be used to access additional functionality. The accept4() system call is exactly the same as accept(), except that it adds a flags bit-mask argument. Two flags are initially implemented. (Most of the new system calls in 2.6.27 also had both of these flags.) SOCK_CLOEXEC causes the close-on-exec (FD_CLOEXEC) flag to be enabled for the new file descriptor returned by accept4(). This is a useful security feature to avoid leaking information in a multithreaded program where one thread is doing an accept() at the same time as another thread is doing a fork() plus exec(). More details here: http://udrepper.livejournal.com/20407.html "Secure File Descriptor Handling", Ulrich Drepper). The other flag is SOCK_NONBLOCK, which causes the O_NONBLOCK flag to be enabled on the new open file description created by accept4(). (This flag is merely a convenience, saving the use of additional calls fcntl(F_GETFL) and fcntl (F_SETFL) to achieve the same result. Here's a test program. Works on x86-32. Should work on x86-64, but I (mtk) don't have a system to hand to test with. It tests accept4() with each of the four possible combinations of SOCK_CLOEXEC and SOCK_NONBLOCK set/clear in 'flags', and verifies that the appropriate flags are set on the file descriptor/open file description returned by accept4(). I tested Ulrich's patch in this thread by applying against 2.6.28-rc2, and it passes according to my test program. /* test_accept4.c Copyright (C) 2008, Linux Foundation, written by Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com> Licensed under the GNU GPLv2 or later. */ #define _GNU_SOURCE #include <unistd.h> #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #define PORT_NUM 33333 #define die(msg) do { perror(msg); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } while (0) /**********************************************************************/ /* The following is what we need until glibc gets a wrapper for accept4() */ /* Flags for socket(), socketpair(), accept4() */ #ifndef SOCK_CLOEXEC #define SOCK_CLOEXEC O_CLOEXEC #endif #ifndef SOCK_NONBLOCK #define SOCK_NONBLOCK O_NONBLOCK #endif #ifdef __x86_64__ #define SYS_accept4 288 #elif __i386__ #define USE_SOCKETCALL 1 #define SYS_ACCEPT4 18 #else #error "Sorry -- don't know the syscall # on this architecture" #endif static int accept4(int fd, struct sockaddr *sockaddr, socklen_t *addrlen, int flags) { printf("Calling accept4(): flags = %x", flags); if (flags != 0) { printf(" ("); if (flags & SOCK_CLOEXEC) printf("SOCK_CLOEXEC"); if ((flags & SOCK_CLOEXEC) && (flags & SOCK_NONBLOCK)) printf(" "); if (flags & SOCK_NONBLOCK) printf("SOCK_NONBLOCK"); printf(")"); } printf("\n"); #if USE_SOCKETCALL long args[6]; args[0] = fd; args[1] = (long) sockaddr; args[2] = (long) addrlen; args[3] = flags; return syscall(SYS_socketcall, SYS_ACCEPT4, args); #else return syscall(SYS_accept4, fd, sockaddr, addrlen, flags); #endif } /**********************************************************************/ static int do_test(int lfd, struct sockaddr_in *conn_addr, int closeonexec_flag, int nonblock_flag) { int connfd, acceptfd; int fdf, flf, fdf_pass, flf_pass; struct sockaddr_in claddr; socklen_t addrlen; printf("=======================================\n"); connfd = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); if (connfd == -1) die("socket"); if (connect(connfd, (struct sockaddr *) conn_addr, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in)) == -1) die("connect"); addrlen = sizeof(struct sockaddr_in); acceptfd = accept4(lfd, (struct sockaddr *) &claddr, &addrlen, closeonexec_flag | nonblock_flag); if (acceptfd == -1) { perror("accept4()"); close(connfd); return 0; } fdf = fcntl(acceptfd, F_GETFD); if (fdf == -1) die("fcntl:F_GETFD"); fdf_pass = ((fdf & FD_CLOEXEC) != 0) == ((closeonexec_flag & SOCK_CLOEXEC) != 0); printf("Close-on-exec flag is %sset (%s); ", (fdf & FD_CLOEXEC) ?

2008-11-18mac80211: remove ieee80211_notify_macJohannes Berg1-20/+0
Before ieee80211_notify_mac() was added, it was presented with the use case of using it to tell mac80211 that the association may have been lost because the firmware crashed/reset. Since then, it has also been used by iwlwifi to (slightly) speed up re-association after resume, a workaround around the fact that mac80211 has no suspend/resume handling yet. It is also not used by any other drivers, so clearly it cannot be necessary for "good enough" suspend/resume. Unfortunately, the callback suffers from a severe problem: It only works for station mode. If suspend/resume happens while in IBSS or any other mode (but station), then the callback is pointless. Recently, it has created a number of locking issues, first because it required rtnl locking rather than RCU due to calling sleeping functions within the critical section, and now because it's called by iwlwifi from the mac80211 workqueue that may not use the rtnl because it is flushed under rtnl. (cf. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12046) I think, therefore, that we should take a step back, remove it entirely for now and add the small feature it provided properly. For suspend and resume we will need to introduce new hooks, and for the case where the firmware was reset the driver will probably simply just pretend it has done a suspend/resume cycle to get mac80211 to reprogram the hardware completely, not just try to connect to the current AP again in station mode. When doing so, we will need to take into account locking issues and possibly defer to schedule_work from within mac80211 for the resume operation, while the suspend operation must be done directly. Proper suspend/resume should also not necessarily try to reconnect to the current AP, the time spent in suspend may have been short enough to not be disconnected from the AP, mac80211 will detect that the AP went out of range quickly if it did, and if the association is lost then the AP will disassoc as soon as a data frame is sent. We might also take into account WWOL then, and have mac80211 program the hardware into such a mode where it is available and requested.

2008-11-16dccp: Deprecate Ack Ratio sysctlGerrit Renker1-2/+0
This patch deprecates the Ack Ratio sysctl, since * Ack Ratio is entirely ignored by CCID-3 and CCID-4, * Ack Ratio currently doesn't work in CCID-2 (i.e. is always set to 1); * even if it would work in CCID-2, there is no point for a user to change it: - Ack Ratio is constrained by cwnd (RFC 4341, 6.1.2), - if Ack Ratio > cwnd, the system resorts to spurious RTO timeouts (since waiting for Acks which will never arrive in this window), - cwnd is not a user-configurable value. The only reasonable place for Ack Ratio is to print it for debugging. It is planned to do this later on, as part of e.g. dccp_probe. With this patch Ack Ratio is now under full control of feature negotiation: * Ack Ratio is resolved as a dependency of the selected CCID; * if the chosen CCID supports it (i.e. CCID == CCID-2), Ack Ratio is set to the default of 2, following RFC 4340, 11.3 - "New connections start with Ack Ratio 2 for both endpoints"; * what happens then is part of another patch set, since it concerns the dynamic update of Ack Ratio while the connection is in full flight.

2008-11-16dccp: Feature negotiation for minimum-checksum-coverageGerrit Renker1-2/+2
This provides feature negotiation for server minimum checksum coverage which so far has been missing. Since sender/receiver coverage values range only from 0...15, their type has also been reduced in size from u16 to u4. Feature-negotiation options are now generated for both sender and receiver coverage, i.e. when the peer has `forgotten' to enable partial coverage then feature negotiation will automatically enable (negotiate) the partial coverage value for this connection.

2008-11-16dccp: Deprecate old setsockopt frameworkGerrit Renker1-7/+0
The previous setsockopt interface, which passed socket options via struct dccp_so_feat, is complicated/difficult to use. Continuing to support it leads to ugly code since the old approach did not distinguish between NN and SP values. This patch removes the old setsockopt interface and replaces it with two new functions to register NN/SP values for feature negotiation. These are essentially wrappers around the internal __feat_register functions, with checking added to avoid * wrong usage (type); * changing values while the connection is in progress.

2008-11-16virtio_net: VIRTIO_NET_F_MSG_RXBUF (imprive rcv buffer allocation)Mark McLoughlin1-0/+9
If segmentation offload is enabled by the host, we currently allocate maximum sized packet buffers and pass them to the host. This uses up 20 ring entries, allowing us to supply only 20 packet buffers to the host with a 256 entry ring. This is a huge overhead when receiving small packets, and is most keenly felt when receiving MTU sized packets from off-host. The VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature flag is set by hosts which support using receive buffers which are smaller than the maximum packet size. In order to transfer large packets to the guest, the host merges together multiple receive buffers to form a larger logical buffer. The number of merged buffers is returned to the guest via a field in the virtio_net_hdr. Make use of this support by supplying single page receive buffers to the host. On receive, we extract the virtio_net_hdr, copy 128 bytes of the payload to the skb's linear data buffer and adjust the fragment offset to point to the remaining data. This ensures proper alignment and allows us to not use any paged data for small packets. If the payload occupies multiple pages, we simply append those pages as fragments and free the associated skbs. This scheme allows us to be efficient in our use of ring entries while still supporting large packets. Benchmarking using netperf from an external machine to a guest over a 10Gb/s network shows a 100% improvement from ~1Gb/s to ~2Gb/s. With a local host->guest benchmark with GSO disabled on the host side, throughput was seen to increase from 700Mb/s to 1.7Gb/s. Based on a patch from Herbert Xu.

2008-11-16net: make sure struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on 64 bytesEric Dumazet1-0/+19
As found in the past (commit f1dd9c379cac7d5a76259e7dffcd5f8edc697d17 [NET]: Fix tbench regression in 2.6.25-rc1), it is really important that struct dst_entry refcount is aligned on a cache line. We cannot use __atribute((aligned)), so manually pad the structure for 32 and 64 bit arches. for 32bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0x80 for 64bit : offsetof(truct dst_entry, __refcnt) is 0xc0 As it is not possible to guess at compile time cache line size, we use a generic value of 64 bytes, that satisfies many current arches. (Using 128 bytes alignment on 64bit arches would waste 64 bytes) Add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch future updates to "struct dst_entry" dont break this alignment. "tbench 8" is 4.4 % faster on a dual quad core (HP BL460c G1), Intel E5450 @3.00GHz (2350 MB/s instead of 2250 MB/s) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-11-16net: Convert TCP & DCCP hash tables to use RCU / hlist_nullsEric Dumazet2-7/+7
RCU was added to UDP lookups, using a fast infrastructure : - sockets kmem_cache use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and dont pay the price of call_rcu() at freeing time. - hlist_nulls permits to use few memory barriers. This patch uses same infrastructure for TCP/DCCP established and timewait sockets. Thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, no slowdown for applications using short lived TCP connections. A followup patch, converting rwlocks to spinlocks will even speedup this case. __inet_lookup_established() is pretty fast now we dont have to dirty a contended cache line (read_lock/read_unlock) Only established and timewait hashtable are converted to RCU (bind table and listen table are still using traditional locking) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is a straightforward patch, using hlist_nulls infrastructure. RCUification already done on UDP two weeks ago. Using hlist_nulls permits us to avoid some memory barriers, both at lookup time and delete time. Patch is large because it adds new macros to include/net/sock.h.

2008-11-16rcu: Introduce hlist_nulls variant of hlistEric Dumazet2-0/+204
hlist uses NULL value to finish a chain. hlist_nulls variant use the low order bit set to 1 to signal an end-of-list marker. This allows to store many different end markers, so that some RCU lockless algos (used in TCP/UDP stack for example) can save some memory barriers in fast paths. Two new files are added : include/linux/list_nulls.h - mimics hlist part of include/linux/list.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant include/linux/rculist_nulls.h - mimics hlist part of include/linux/rculist.h, derived to hlist_nulls variant Only four helpers are declared for the moment : hlist_nulls_del_init_rcu(), hlist_nulls_del_rcu(), hlist_nulls_add_head_rcu() and hlist_nulls_for_each_entry_rcu() prefetches() were removed, since an end of list is not anymore NULL value. prefetches() could trigger useless (and possibly dangerous) memory transactions. Example of use (extracted from __udp4_lib_lookup()) struct sock *sk, *result; struct hlist_nulls_node *node; unsigned short hnum = ntohs(dport); unsigned int hash = udp_hashfn(net, hnum); struct udp_hslot *hslot = &udptable->hash[hash]; int score, badness; rcu_read_lock(); begin: result = NULL; badness = -1; sk_nulls_for_each_rcu(sk, node, &hslot->head) { score = compute_score(sk, net, saddr, hnum, sport, daddr, dport, dif); if (score > badness) { result = sk; badness = score; } } /* * if the nulls value we got at the end of this lookup is * not the expected one, we must restart lookup. * We probably met an item that was moved to another chain. */ if (get_nulls_value(node) != hash) goto begin; if (result) { if (unlikely(!atomic_inc_not_zero(&result->sk_refcnt))) result = NULL; else if (unlikely(compute_score(result, net, saddr, hnum, sport, daddr, dport, dif) < badness)) { sock_put(result); goto begin; } } rcu_read_unlock(); return result; Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: David S.
