2014-11-05gue: TX support for using remote checksum offload optionTom Herbert2-1/+14
Add if_tunnel flag TUNNEL_ENCAP_FLAG_REMCSUM to configure remote checksum offload on an IP tunnel. Add logic in gue_build_header to insert remote checksum offload option. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-11-05gue: Protocol constants for remote checksum offloadTom Herbert1-1/+4
Define a private flag for remote checksun offload as well as a length for the option. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-11-05udp: Changes to udp_offload to support remote checksum offloadTom Herbert3-2/+7
Add a new GSO type, SKB_GSO_TUNNEL_REMCSUM, which indicates remote checksum offload being done (in this case inner checksum must not be offloaded to the NIC). Added logic in __skb_udp_tunnel_segment to handle remote checksum offload case. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-11-05gue: Add infrastructure for flags and optionsTom Herbert1-5/+95
Add functions and basic definitions for processing standard flags, private flags, and control messages. This includes definitions to compute length of optional fields corresponding to a set of flags. Flag validation is in validate_gue_flags function. This checks for unknown flags, and that length of optional fields is <= length in guehdr hlen.

2014-11-05net: Move fou_build_header into fou.c and refactorTom Herbert1-0/+26
Move fou_build_header out of ip_tunnel.c and into fou.c splitting it up into fou_build_header, gue_build_header, and fou_build_udp. This allows for other users for TX of FOU or GUE. Change ip_tunnel_encap to call fou_build_header or gue_build_header based on the tunnel encapsulation type. Similarly, added fou_encap_hlen and gue_encap_hlen functions which are called by ip_encap_hlen. New net/fou.h has prototypes and defines for this. Added NET_FOU_IP_TUNNELS configuration. When this is set, IP tunnels can use FOU/GUE and fou module is also selected. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-11-04net: allow setting ecn via routing tableFlorian Westphal1-1/+1
This patch allows to set ECN on a per-route basis in case the sysctl tcp_ecn is not set to 1. In other words, when ECN is set for specific routes, it provides a tcp_ecn=1 behaviour for that route while the rest of the stack acts according to the global settings. One can use 'ip route change dev $dev $net features ecn' to toggle this. Having a more fine-grained per-route setting can be beneficial for various reasons, for example, 1) within data centers, or 2) local ISPs may deploy ECN support for their own video/streaming services [1], etc. There was a recent measurement study/paper [2] which scanned the Alexa's publicly available top million websites list from a vantage point in US, Europe and Asia: Half of the Alexa list will now happily use ECN (tcp_ecn=2, most likely blamed to commit 255cac91c3 ("tcp: extend ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN") ;)); the break in connectivity on-path was found is about 1 in 10,000 cases. Timeouts rather than receiving back RSTs were much more common in the negotiation phase (and mostly seen in the Alexa middle band, ranks around 50k-150k): from 12-thousand hosts on which there _may_ be ECN-linked connection failures, only 79 failed with RST when _not_ failing with RST when ECN is not requested. It's unclear though, how much equipment in the wild actually marks CE when buffers start to fill up. We thought about a fallback to non-ECN for retransmitted SYNs as another global option (which could perhaps one day be made default), but as Eric points out, there's much more work needed to detect broken middleboxes. Two examples Eric mentioned are buggy firewalls that accept only a single SYN per flow, and middleboxes that successfully let an ECN flow establish, but later mark CE for all packets (so cwnd converges to 1).

2014-11-04syncookies: split cookie_check_timestamp() into two functionsFlorian Westphal1-5/+4
The function cookie_check_timestamp(), both called from IPv4/6 context, is being used to decode the echoed timestamp from the SYN/ACK into TCP options used for follow-up communication with the peer. We can remove ECN handling from that function, split it into a separate one, and simply rename the original function into cookie_decode_options(). cookie_decode_options() just fills in tcp_option struct based on the echoed timestamp received from the peer. Anything that fails in this function will actually discard the request socket. While this is the natural place for decoding options such as ECN which commit 172d69e63c7f ("syncookies: add support for ECN") added, we argue that in particular for ECN handling, it can be checked at a later point in time as the request sock would actually not need to be dropped from this, but just ECN support turned off. Therefore, we split this functionality into cookie_ecn_ok(), which tells us if the timestamp indicates ECN support AND the tcp_ecn sysctl is enabled. This prepares for per-route ECN support: just looking at the tcp_ecn sysctl won't be enough anymore at that point; if the timestamp indicates ECN and sysctl tcp_ecn == 0, we will also need to check the ECN dst metric. This would mean adding a route lookup to cookie_check_timestamp(), which we definitely want to avoid. As we already do a route lookup at a later point in cookie_{v4,v6}_check(), we can simply make use of that as well for the new cookie_ecn_ok() function w/o any additional cost.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== netfilter/ipvs fixes for net The following patchset contains fixes for netfilter/ipvs. This round of fixes is larger than usual at this stage, specifically because of the nf_tables bridge reject fixes that I would like to see in 3.18. The patches are: 1) Fix a null-pointer dereference that may occur when logging errors. This problem was introduced by 4a4739d56b0 ("ipvs: Pull out crosses_local_route_boundary logic") in v3.17-rc5. 2) Update hook mask in nft_reject_bridge so we can also filter out packets from there. This fixes 36d2af5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow to filter from prerouting and postrouting"), which needs this chunk to work. 3) Two patches to refactor common code to forge the IPv4 and IPv6 reject packets from the bridge. These are required by the nf_tables reject bridge fix. 4) Fix nft_reject_bridge by avoiding the use of the IP stack to reject packets from the bridge. The idea is to forge the reject packets and inject them to the original port via br_deliver() which is now exported for that purpose. 5) Restrict nft_reject_bridge to bridge prerouting and input hooks. the original skbuff may cloned after prerouting when the bridge stack needs to flood it to several bridge ports, it is too late to reject the traffic. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-10-29mm: memcontrol: fix missed end-writeback page accountingJohannes Weiner1-41/+17
Commit 0a31bc97c80c ("mm: memcontrol: rewrite uncharge API") changed page migration to uncharge the old page right away. The page is locked, unmapped, truncated, and off the LRU, but it could race with writeback ending, which then doesn't unaccount the page properly: test_clear_page_writeback() migration wait_on_page_writeback() TestClearPageWriteback() mem_cgroup_migrate() clear PCG_USED mem_cgroup_update_page_stat() if (PageCgroupUsed(pc)) decrease memcg pages under writeback release pc->mem_cgroup->move_lock The per-page statistics interface is heavily optimized to avoid a function call and a lookup_page_cgroup() in the file unmap fast path, which means it doesn't verify whether a page is still charged before clearing PageWriteback() and it has to do it in the stat update later. Rework it so that it looks up the page's memcg once at the beginning of the transaction and then uses it throughout. The charge will be verified before clearing PageWriteback() and migration can't uncharge the page as long as that is still set. The RCU lock will protect the memcg past uncharge. As far as losing the optimization goes, the following test results are from a microbenchmark that maps, faults, and unmaps a 4GB sparse file three times in a nested fashion, so that there are two negative passes that don't account but still go through the new transaction overhead. There is no actual difference: old: 33.195102545 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.01% ) new: 33.199231369 seconds time elapsed ( +- 0.03% ) The time spent in page_remove_rmap()'s callees still adds up to the same, but the time spent in the function itself seems reduced: # Children Self Command Shared Object Symbol old: 0.12% 0.11% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap new: 0.12% 0.08% filemapstress [kernel.kallsyms] [k] page_remove_rmap Signed-off-by: Johannes Weiner <hannes@cmpxchg.org> Acked-by: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.cz> Cc: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@parallels.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> [3.17.x] Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2014-10-29mm, thp: fix collapsing of hugepages on madviseDavid Rientjes1-7/+10
If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never collapse this memory into thp memory. This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(), clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma->vm_flags until the final action of madvise_behavior(). This causes the khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set. Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot handler. There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm->mmap_sem. It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma->vm_flags in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case behavior into madvise_behavior(). I think it's best to just let it always set vma->vm_flags itself. Signed-off-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Reported-by: Suleiman Souhlal <suleiman@google.com> Cc: "Kirill A.

Here are some numbers with 30 000 dummy interfaces configured: Before the patch: $ time rmmod dummy real 2m0.118s user 0m0.000s sys 1m50.048s After the patch: $ time rmmod dummy real 1m9.970s user 0m0.000s sys 0m47.976s Suggested-by: Thierry Herbelot <thierry.herbelot@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-10-29net: introduce napi_schedule_irqoff()Eric Dumazet1-0/+13
napi_schedule() can be called from any context and has to mask hard irqs. Add a variant that can only be called from hard interrupts handlers or when irqs are already masked. Many NIC drivers can use it from their hard IRQ handler instead of generic variant. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-10-29net: ipv6: Add a sysctl to make optimistic addresses useful candidatesErik Kline2-0/+2
Add a sysctl that causes an interface's optimistic addresses to be considered equivalent to other non-deprecated addresses for source address selection purposes. Preferred addresses will still take precedence over optimistic addresses, subject to other ranking in the source address selection algorithm. This is useful where different interfaces are connected to different networks from different ISPs (e.g., a cell network and a home wifi network). The current behaviour complies with RFC 3484/6724, and it makes sense if the host has only one interface, or has multiple interfaces on the same network (same or cooperating administrative domain(s), but not in the multiple distinct networks case. For example, if a mobile device has an IPv6 address on an LTE network and then connects to IPv6-enabled wifi, while the wifi IPv6 address is undergoing DAD, IPv6 connections will try use the wifi default route with the LTE IPv6 address, and will get stuck until they time out. Also, because optimistic nodes can receive frames, issue an RTM_NEWADDR as soon as DAD starts (with the IFA_F_OPTIMSTIC flag appropriately set). A second RTM_NEWADDR is sent if DAD completes (the address flags have changed), otherwise an RTM_DELADDR is sent. Also: add an entry in ip-sysctl.txt for optimistic_dad.

2014-10-29tcp: allow for bigger reordering levelEric Dumazet2-5/+3
While testing upcoming Yaogong patch (converting out of order queue into an RB tree), I hit the max reordering level of linux TCP stack. Reordering level was limited to 127 for no good reason, and some network setups [1] can easily reach this limit and get limited throughput. Allow a new max limit of 300, and add a sysctl to allow admins to even allow bigger (or lower) values if needed.

The original motivation for this change was to allow the helper to be used in files other than actions.c as part of work on an odp select group action. It was as pointed out by Thomas Graf that this helper would be best off living in netlink.h. Furthermore, I think that the generic nature of this helper means it is best off in netlink.h regardless of if it is used more than one .c file or not. Thus, I would like it considered independent of the work on an odp select group action.

2014-10-28rcu: Make rcu_barrier() understand about missing rcuo kthreadsPaul E. McKenney1-9/+9
Commit 35ce7f29a44a (rcu: Create rcuo kthreads only for onlined CPUs) avoids creating rcuo kthreads for CPUs that never come online. This fixes a bug in many instances of firmware: Instead of lying about their age, these systems instead lie about the number of CPUs that they have. Before commit 35ce7f29a44a, this could result in huge numbers of useless rcuo kthreads being created. It appears that experience indicates that I should have told the people suffering from this problem to fix their broken firmware, but I instead produced what turned out to be a partial fix. The missing piece supplied by this commit makes sure that rcu_barrier() knows not to post callbacks for no-CBs CPUs that have not yet come online, because otherwise rcu_barrier() will hang on systems having firmware that lies about the number of CPUs. It is tempting to simply have rcu_barrier() refuse to post a callback on any no-CBs CPU that does not have an rcuo kthread. This unfortunately does not work because rcu_barrier() is required to wait for all pending callbacks. It is therefore required to wait even for those callbacks that cannot possibly be invoked. Even if doing so hangs the system. Given that posting a callback to a no-CBs CPU that does not yet have an rcuo kthread can hang rcu_barrier(), It is tempting to report an error in this case. Unfortunately, this will result in false positives at boot time, when it is perfectly legal to post callbacks to the boot CPU before the scheduler has started, in other words, before it is legal to invoke rcu_barrier(). So this commit instead has rcu_barrier() avoid posting callbacks to CPUs having neither rcuo kthread nor pending callbacks, and has it complain bitterly if it finds CPUs having no rcuo kthread but some pending callbacks. And when rcu_barrier() does find CPUs having no rcuo kthread but pending callbacks, as noted earlier, it has no choice but to hang indefinitely.

The bug referenced by the comment in this commit was not completely fixed in GCC 4.8.2, as I mentioned in a thread back in February: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/12/797 The conclusion at that time was to make the quirk unconditional until the bug could be found and fixed in GCC. Unfortunately, when I submitted the patch (commit a9f18034) I left a comment in that claimed the bug was fixed in GCC 4.8.2+. This comment is inaccurate, and should be removed.

2014-10-27bridge: Add support for IEEE 802.11 Proxy ARPKyeyoon Park1-0/+1
This feature is defined in IEEE Std 802.11-2012, 10.23.13. It allows the AP devices to keep track of the hardware-address-to-IP-address mapping of the mobile devices within the WLAN network. The AP will learn this mapping via observing DHCP, ARP, and NS/NA frames. When a request for such information is made (i.e. ARP request, Neighbor Solicitation), the AP will respond on behalf of the associated mobile device. In the process of doing so, the AP will drop the multicast request frame that was intended to go out to the wireless medium. It was recommended at the LKS workshop to do this implementation in the bridge layer. vxlan.c is already doing something very similar. The DHCP snooping code will be added to the userspace application (hostapd) per the recommendation. This RFC commit is only for IPv4. A similar approach in the bridge layer will be taken for IPv6 as well. Signed-off-by: Kyeyoon Park <kyeyoonp@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
