2017-11-02net: bridge: add notifications for the bridge dev on vlan changeNikolay Aleksandrov1-1/+1
Currently the bridge device doesn't generate any notifications upon vlan modifications on itself because it doesn't use the generic bridge notifications. With the recent changes we know if anything was modified in the vlan config thus we can generate a notification when necessary for the bridge device so add support to br_ifinfo_notify() similar to how other combined functions are done - if port is present it takes precedence, otherwise notify about the bridge. I've explicitly marked the locations where the notification should be always for the port by setting bridge to NULL. I've also taken the liberty to rearrange each modified function's local variables in reverse xmas tree as well.

2017-10-25bridge: remove rtmsg_ifinfo called in add_del_ifXin Long1-3/+0
Since commit dc709f375743 ("rtnetlink: bring NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event process back in rtnetlink_event"), rtnetlink_event would process the NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event and send a notification to userspace. In add_del_if, it would generate NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event by whether netdev_master_upper_dev_link or netdev_upper_dev_unlink. There's no need to call rtmsg_ifinfo to send the notification any more. So this patch is to remove it from add_del_if also to avoid redundant notifications. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2017-09-21bridge: trigger RTM_NEWLINK when interface is modified by bridge ioctlVincent Bernat1-0/+3
Currently, there is a difference in netlink events received when an interface is modified through bridge ioctl() or through netlink. This patch generates additional events when an interface is added to or removed from a bridge via ioctl(). When adding then removing an interface from a bridge with netlink, we get: 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 Deleted 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff When using ioctl(): 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bridge0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 Deleted 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 5: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default link/ether 9e:da:60:ee:cf:c8 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Without this patch, the last netlink notification is not sent.

2017-09-20bridge: also trigger RTM_NEWLINK when interface is released from bridgeVincent Bernat1-1/+3
Currently, when an interface is released from a bridge via ioctl(), we get a RTM_DELLINK event through netlink: Deleted 2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state UNKNOWN link/ether 6e:23:c2:54:3a:b3 Userspace has to interpret that as a removal from the bridge, not as a complete removal of the interface. When an bridged interface is completely removed, we get two events: Deleted 2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 master bridge0 state DOWN link/ether 6e:23:c2:54:3a:b3 Deleted 2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default link/ether 6e:23:c2:54:3a:b3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff In constrast, when an interface is released from a bond, we get a RTM_NEWLINK with only the new characteristics (no master): 3: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue master bond0 state UNKNOWN group default link/ether ae:dc:7a:8c:9a:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default link/ether ae:dc:7a:8c:9a:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 4: bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default link/ether ae:dc:7a:8c:9a:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN group default link/ether ae:dc:7a:8c:9a:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: dummy1: <BROADCAST,NOARP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state DOWN group default link/ether ca:c8:7b:66:f8:25 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 4: bond0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP group default link/ether ae:dc:7a:8c:9a:3c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Userland may be confused by the fact we say a link is deleted while its characteristics are only modified. A first solution would have been to turn the RTM_DELLINK event in del_nbp() into a RTM_NEWLINK event. However, maybe some piece of userland is relying on this RTM_DELLINK to detect when a bridged interface is released. Instead, we also emit a RTM_NEWLINK event once the interface is released (without master info).

Move the fdb garbage collector to a workqueue which fires at least 10 milliseconds apart and cleans chain by chain allowing for other tasks to run in the meantime. When having thousands of fdbs the system is much more responsive. Most importantly remove the need to check if the matched entry has expired in __br_fdb_get that causes false-sharing and is completely unnecessary if we cleanup entries, at worst we'll get 10ms of traffic for that entry before it gets deleted.

2016-04-13bridge: a netlink notification should be sent when those attributes are ↵Xin Long1-16/+24
changed by ioctl Now when we change the attributes of bridge or br_port by netlink, a relevant netlink notification will be sent, but if we change them by ioctl or sysfs, no notification will be sent. We should ensure that whenever those attributes change internally or from sysfs/ioctl, that a netlink notification is sent out to listeners. Also, NetworkManager will use this in the future to listen for out-of-band bridge master attribute updates and incorporate them into the runtime configuration. This patch is used for ioctl.

After the ->set() spinlocks were removed br_stp_set_bridge_priority was left running without any protection when used via sysfs. It can race with port add/del and could result in use-after-free cases and corrupted lists.

If STP is disabled, there is no restriction on forward delay 3. No restriction on holding time because users use Linux code to act as hub or be sticky. 4.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2008-09-08bridge: don't allow setting hello time to zeroStephen Hemminger1-1/+7
Dushan Tcholich reports that on his system ksoftirqd can consume between %6 to %10 of cpu time, and cause ~200 context switches per second. He then correlated this with a report by bdupree@techfinesse.com: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119613299024398&w=2 and the culprit cause seems to be starting the bridge interface. In particular, when starting the bridge interface, his scripts are specifying a hello timer interval of "0". The bridge hello time can't be safely set to values less than 1 second, otherwise it is possible to end up with a runaway timer.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.Eric W. Biederman1-3/+4
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-05-03[NET]: Rework dev_base via list_head (v3)Pavel Emelianov1-1/+3
Cleanup of dev_base list use, with the aim to simplify making device list per-namespace. In almost every occasion, use of dev_base variable and dev->next pointer could be easily replaced by for_each_netdev loop. A few most complicated places were converted to using first_netdev()/next_netdev().

2007-04-25bridge: add support for user mode STPStephen Hemminger1-2/+3
This patchset based on work by Aji_Srinivas@emc.com provides allows spanning tree to be controled from userspace. Like hotplug, it uses call_usermodehelper when spanning tree is enabled so there is no visible API change. If call to start usermode STP fails it falls back to existing kernel STP.

2007-02-28[BRIDGE]: Fix locking of set path cost.Stephen Hemminger1-2/+1
This change goes with earlier change to get rid of work queue for path cost. Now stp_set_path_cost does its own locking. This is to allow it to call br_path_cost() which calls ethtool interfaces (might sleep). Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
