2016-04-27net: snmp: kill various STATS_USER() helpersEric Dumazet6-34/+16
In the old days (before linux-3.0), SNMP counters were duplicated, one for user context, and one for BH context. After commit 8f0ea0fe3a03 ("snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%") we have a single copy, and what really matters is preemption being enabled or disabled, since we use this_cpu_inc() or __this_cpu_inc() respectively. We therefore kill SNMP_INC_STATS_USER(), SNMP_ADD_STATS_USER(), NET_INC_STATS_USER(), NET_ADD_STATS_USER(), SCTP_INC_STATS_USER(), SNMP_INC_STATS64_USER(), SNMP_ADD_STATS64_USER(), TCP_ADD_STATS_USER(), UDP_INC_STATS_USER(), UDP6_INC_STATS_USER(), and XFRM_INC_STATS_USER() Following patches will rename __BH helpers to make clear their usage is not tied to BH being disabled.

2016-04-26devpts: more pty driver interface cleanupsLinus Torvalds2-5/+5
This is more prep-work for the upcoming pty changes. Still just code cleanup with no actual semantic changes. This removes a bunch pointless complexity by just having the slave pty side remember the dentry associated with the devpts slave rather than the inode. That allows us to remove all the "look up the dentry" code for when we want to remove it again. Together with moving the tty pointer from "inode->i_private" to "dentry->d_fsdata" and getting rid of pointless inode locking, this removes about 30 lines of code. Not only is the end result smaller, it's simpler and easier to understand. The old code, for example, depended on the d_find_alias() to not just find the dentry, but also to check that it is still hashed, which in turn validated the tty pointer in the inode. That is a _very_ roundabout way to say "invalidate the cached tty pointer when the dentry is removed". The new code just does dentry->d_fsdata = NULL; in devpts_pty_kill() instead, invalidating the tty pointer rather more directly and obviously. Don't do something complex and subtle when the obvious straightforward approach will do. The rest of the patch (ie apart from code deletion and the above tty pointer clearing) is just switching the calling convention to pass the dentry or file pointer around instead of the inode.

2016-04-26net/mlx5e: Statistics handling refactoringGal Pressman1-0/+1
Redesign ethtool statistics handling and reporting in the driver: 1. Move counters to a separate file (en_stats.h). 2. Remove unnecessary dependencies between stats and strings. 3. Use counter descriptors which hold a name and offset for each counter, and will be used to decide which counters will be exposed. For example when adding a new software counter to ethtool, instead of: 1. Add to stats struct. 2. Add to strings struct in the same order. 3. Change macro defining number of software counters. The only thing needed is to link the new counter to a counter descriptor. VPort counters are a set of hardware traffic counters created automatically for each virtual port opened. PPort counters are a set of counters describing per physical port performance statistics. These counters are gathered from hardware register and divided to groups according to different protocols.

2016-04-26ila: add checksum neutral ILA translationsTom Herbert1-0/+7
Support checksum neutral ILA as described in the ILA draft. The low order 16 bits of the identifier are used to contain the checksum adjustment value. The csum-mode parameter is added to described checksum processing. There are three values: - adjust transport checksum (previous behavior) - do checksum neutral mapping - do nothing On output the csum-mode in the ila_params is checked and acted on. If mode is checksum neutral mapping then to mapping and set C-bit. On input, C-bit is checked. If it is set checksum-netural mapping is done (regardless of csum-mode in ila params) and C-bit will be cleared. If it is not set then action in csum-mode is taken.

2016-04-25skbuff: Add pskb_extract() helper functionSowmini Varadhan1-0/+2
A pattern of skb usage seen in modules such as RDS-TCP is to extract `to_copy' bytes from the received TCP segment, starting at some offset `off' into a new skb `clone'. This is done in the ->data_ready callback, where the clone skb is queued up for rx on the PF_RDS socket, while the parent TCP segment is returned unchanged back to the TCP engine. The existing code uses the sequence clone = skb_clone(..); pskb_pull(clone, off, ..); pskb_trim(clone, to_copy, ..); with the intention of discarding the first `off' bytes. However, skb_clone() + pskb_pull() implies pksb_expand_head(), which ends up doing a redundant memcpy of bytes that will then get discarded in __pskb_pull_tail(). To avoid this inefficiency, this commit adds pskb_extract() that creates the clone, and memcpy's only the relevant header/frag/frag_list to the start of `clone'. pskb_trim() is then invoked to trim clone down to the requested to_copy bytes.

2016-04-25fq: add fair queuing frameworkMichal Kazior2-0/+364
This works on the same implementation principle as codel*.h, i.e. there's a generic header with structures and macros and a implementation header carrying function definitions to include in given, e.g. driver or module.

2016-04-25codel: split into multiple filesMichal Kazior3-223/+328
It was impossible to include codel.h for the purpose of having access to codel_params or codel_vars structure definitions and using them for embedding in other more complex structures. This splits allows codel.h itself to be treated like any other header file while codel_qdisc.h and codel_impl.h contain function definitions with logic that was previously in codel.h. This copies over copyrights and doesn't involve code changes other than adding a few additional include directives to net/sched/sch*codel.c.

2016-04-25route: move lwtunnel state to a single placeJiri Benc1-4/+1
Commit 751a587ac9f9 ("route: fix breakage after moving lwtunnel state") moved lwtstate to the end of dst_entry for 32bit archs. This makes it share the cacheline with __refcnt which had an unkown effect on performance. For this reason, the pointer was kept in place for 64bit archs. However, later performance measurements showed this is of no concern. It turns out that every performance sensitive path that accesses lwtstate accesses also struct rtable or struct rt6_info which share the same cache line. Thus, to get rid of a few #ifdefs, move the field to the end of the struct also for 64bit. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-04-25qed*: Conditions for changing linkYuval Mintz1-0/+10
There's some inconsistency in current logic determining whether the link settings of a given interface can be changed; I.e., in all modes other than the so-called `deault' mode the interfaces are forbidden from changing the configuration - but even this rule is not applied to all user APIs that may change the configuration. Instead, let the core-module [qed] decide whether an interface can change the configuration by supporting a new API function. We also revise the current rule, allowing all interfaces to change their configurations while laying the infrastructure for future modes where an interface would be blocked from making such a configuration.

2016-04-24tcp-tso: do not split TSO packets at retransmit timeEric Dumazet1-2/+2
Linux TCP stack painfully segments all TSO/GSO packets before retransmits. This was fine back in the days when TSO/GSO were emerging, with their bugs, but we believe the dark age is over. Keeping big packets in write queues, but also in stack traversal has a lot of benefits. - Less memory overhead, because write queues have less skbs - Less cpu overhead at ACK processing. - Better SACK processing, as lot of studies mentioned how awful linux was at this ;) - Less cpu overhead to send the rtx packets (IP stack traversal, netfilter traversal, drivers...) - Better latencies in presence of losses. - Smaller spikes in fq like packet schedulers, as retransmits are not constrained by TCP Small Queues. 1 % packet losses are common today, and at 100Gbit speeds, this translates to ~80,000 losses per second. Losses are often correlated, and we see many retransmit events leading to 1-MSS train of packets, at the time hosts are already under stress.

2016-04-24switchdev: Adding complete operation to deferred switchdev opsElad Raz1-0/+4
When using switchdev deferred operation (SWITCHDEV_F_DEFER), the operation is executed in different context and the application doesn't have any way to get the operation real status. Adding a completion callback fixes that. This patch adds fields to switchdev_attr and switchdev_obj "complete_priv" field which is used by the "complete" callback. Application can set a complete function which will be called once the operation executed.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree, mostly from Florian Westphal to sort out the lack of sufficient validation in x_tables and connlabel preparation patches to add nf_tables support. They are: 1) Ensure we don't go over the ruleset blob boundaries in mark_source_chains(). 2) Validate that target jumps land on an existing xt_entry. This extra sanitization comes with a performance penalty when loading the ruleset. 3) Introduce xt_check_entry_offsets() and use it from {arp,ip,ip6}tables. 4) Get rid of the smallish check_entry() functions in {arp,ip,ip6}tables. 5) Make sure the minimal possible target size in x_tables. 6) Similar to #3, add xt_compat_check_entry_offsets() for compat code. 7) Check that standard target size is valid. 8) More sanitization to ensure that the target_offset field is correct. 9) Add xt_check_entry_match() to validate that matches are well-formed. 10-12) Three patch to reduce the number of parameters in translate_compat_table() for {arp,ip,ip6}tables by using a container structure. 13) No need to return value from xt_compat_match_from_user(), so make it void. 14) Consolidate translate_table() so it can be used by compat code too. 15) Remove obsolete check for compat code, so we keep consistent with what was already removed in the native layout code (back in 2007). 16) Get rid of target jump validation from mark_source_chains(), obsoleted by #2. 17) Introduce xt_copy_counters_from_user() to consolidate counter copying, and use it from {arp,ip,ip6}tables. 18,22) Get rid of unnecessary explicit inlining in ctnetlink for dump functions. 19) Move nf_connlabel_match() to xt_connlabel. 20) Skip event notification if connlabel did not change. 21) Update of nf_connlabels_get() to make the upcoming nft connlabel support easier. 23) Remove spinlock to read protocol state field in conntrack. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
