2019-07-01net: link_watch: prevent starvation when processing linkwatch wqYunsheng Lin1-1/+12
When user has configured a large number of virtual netdev, such as 4K vlans, the carrier on/off operation of the real netdev will also cause it's virtual netdev's link state to be processed in linkwatch. Currently, the processing is done in a work queue, which may cause rtnl locking starvation problem and worker starvation problem for other work queue, such as irqfd_inject wq. This patch releases the cpu when link watch worker has processed a fixed number of netdev' link watch event, and schedule the work queue again when there is still link watch event remaining.

2018-09-19net: linkwatch: add check for netdevice being present to linkwatch_do_devHeiner Kallweit1-1/+1
When bringing down the netdevice (incl. detaching it) and calling netif_carrier_off directly or indirectly the latter triggers an asynchronous linkwatch event. This linkwatch event eventually may fail to access chip registers in the ndo_get_stats/ndo_get_stats64 callback because the device isn't accessible any longer, see call trace in [0]. To prevent this scenario don't check for IFF_UP only, but also make sure that the netdevice is present.

2018-01-23net: link_watch: mark bonding link events urgentRoopa Prabhu1-1/+1
It takes 1sec for bond link down notification to hit user-space when all slaves of the bond go down. 1sec is too long for protocol daemons in user-space relying on bond notification to recover (eg: multichassis lag implementations in user-space). Since the link event code already marks team device port link events as urgent, this patch moves the code to cover all lag ports and master.

2012-08-24net: Set device operstate at registration timeBen Hutchings1-0/+8
The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN. For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a unregistered device, and commit b473001 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN. The same issue exists with the dormant state. The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of the device, is: rtnl_lock(); rc = register_netdevice(dev); if (rc) goto out_unlock; netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */ rtnl_unlock(); but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of linkwatch. Commit 22604c8 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was reverted as it could lead to deadlock. This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time only. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2011-09-15net: linkwatch: allow vlans to get carrier changes fasterEric Dumazet1-2/+7
There is a time-lag of IFF_RUNNING flag consistency between vlan and real devices when the real devices are in problem such as link or cable broken. This leads to a degradation of Availability such as a delay of failover in HA systems using vlan since the detection of the problem at real device is delayed. We can avoid the linkwatch delay (~1 sec) for devices linked to another ones, since delay is already done for the realdev.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-1/+0
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.

And __linkwatch_run_queue() runs up to one second later... A generic fix to this problem is to add a linkwatch_forget_dev() method to unlink the device from the list of watched devices. dev->link_watch_next becomes dev->link_watch_list (and use a bit more memory), to be able to unlink device in O(1).

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Always schedule urgent eventsHerbert Xu1-19/+41
Urgent events may be delayed if we already have a non-urgent event queued for that device. This patch changes this by making sure that an urgent event is always looked at immediately. I've replaced the LW_RUNNING flag by LW_URGENT since whether work is scheduled is already kept track by the work queue system.

2007-05-10[NET]: Remove link_watch delay for up even when we're downHerbert Xu1-23/+67
Currently all link carrier events are delayed by up to a second before they're processed to prevent link storms. This causes unnecessary packet loss during that interval. In fact, we can achieve the same effect in preventing storms by only delaying down events and unnecssary up events. The latter is defined as up events when we're already up.

2007-05-10[NET] link_watch: Move link watch list into net_deviceHerbert Xu1-35/+15
These days the link watch mechanism is an integral part of the network subsystem as it manages the carrier status. So it now makes sense to allocate some memory for it in net_device rather than allocating it on demand. In fact, this is necessary because we can't tolerate a memory allocation failure since that means we'd have to potentially throw a link up event away. It also simplifies the code greatly. In doing so I discovered a subtle race condition in the use of singleevent. This race condition still exists (and is somewhat magnified) without singleevent but it's now plugged thanks to an smp_mb__before_clear_bit.

2006-11-22WorkStruct: Pass the work_struct pointer instead of context dataDavid Howells1-3/+3
Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data. The work function can use container_of() to work out the data. For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit. To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution. Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch). However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the work_struct by calling work_release(). In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR). Signed-Off-By: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
