2016-10-20net: add recursion limit to GROSabrina Dubroca1-1/+1
Currently, GRO can do unlimited recursion through the gro_receive handlers. This was fixed for tunneling protocols by limiting tunnel GRO to one level with encap_mark, but both VLAN and TEB still have this problem. Thus, the kernel is vulnerable to a stack overflow, if we receive a packet composed entirely of VLAN headers. This patch adds a recursion counter to the GRO layer to prevent stack overflow. When a gro_receive function hits the recursion limit, GRO is aborted for this skb and it is processed normally. This recursion counter is put in the GRO CB, but could be turned into a percpu counter if we run out of space in the CB. Thanks to Vladimír Beneš <vbenes@redhat.com> for the initial bug report.

2016-09-19gso: Support partial splitting at the frag_list pointerSteffen Klassert1-1/+4
Since commit 8a29111c7 ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb") gro may build buffers with a frag_list. This can hurt forwarding because most NICs can't offload such packets, they need to be segmented in software. This patch splits buffers with a frag_list at the frag_list pointer into buffers that can be TSO offloaded.

2016-05-20net: define gso types for IPx over IPv4 and IPv6Tom Herbert1-2/+2
This patch defines two new GSO definitions SKB_GSO_IPXIP4 and SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 along with corresponding NETIF_F_GSO_IPXIP4 and NETIF_F_GSO_IPXIP6. These are used to described IP in IP tunnel and what the outer protocol is. The inner protocol can be deduced from other GSO types (e.g. SKB_GSO_TCPV4 and SKB_GSO_TCPV6). The GSO types of SKB_GSO_IPIP and SKB_GSO_SIT are removed (these are both instances of SKB_GSO_IPXIP4). SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 will be used when support for GSO with IP encapsulation over IPv6 is added.

2016-05-20gso: Remove arbitrary checks for unsupported GSOTom Herbert1-18/+0
In several gso_segment functions there are checks of gso_type against a seemingly arbitrary list of SKB_GSO_* flags. This seems like an attempt to identify unsupported GSO types, but since the stack is the one that set these GSO types in the first place this seems unnecessary to do. If a combination isn't valid in the first place that stack should not allow setting it. This is a code simplication especially for add new GSO types.

2016-04-14GSO: Support partial segmentation offloadAlexander Duyck1-1/+9
This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial. The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers, and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware. With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload: NETIF_F_GSO_GRE NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP NETIF_F_GSO_SIT NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

2016-04-14GRO: Add support for TCP with fixed IPv4 ID field, limit tunnel IP ID valuesAlexander Duyck1-2/+6
This patch does two things. First it allows TCP to aggregate TCP frames with a fixed IPv4 ID field. As a result we should now be able to aggregate flows that were converted from IPv6 to IPv4. In addition this allows us more flexibility for future implementations of segmentation as we may be able to use a fixed IP ID when segmenting the flow. The second thing this does is that it places limitations on the outer IPv4 ID header in the case of tunneled frames. Specifically it forces the IP ID to be incrementing by 1 unless the DF bit is set in the outer IPv4 header. This way we can avoid creating overlapping series of IP IDs that could possibly be fragmented if the frame goes through GRO and is then resegmented via GSO.

2016-04-14GSO: Add GSO type for fixed IPv4 IDAlexander Duyck1-1/+2
This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID field. This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4 headers. In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with IP ID mangling. Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was. This is useful in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID value is maintained. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <aduyck@mirantis.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-04-07udp: Add GRO functions to UDP socketTom Herbert1-2/+0
This patch adds GRO functions (gro_receive and gro_complete) to UDP sockets. udp_gro_receive is changed to perform socket lookup on a packet. If a socket is found the related GRO functions are called. This features obsoletes using UDP offload infrastructure for GRO (udp_offload). This has the advantage of not being limited to provide offload on a per port basis, GRO is now applied to whatever individual UDP sockets are bound to. This also allows the possbility of "application defined GRO"-- that is we can attach something like a BPF program to a UDP socket to perfrom GRO on an application layer protocol.

2016-03-20tunnels: Don't apply GRO to multiple layers of encapsulation.Jesse Gross1-1/+14
When drivers express support for TSO of encapsulated packets, they only mean that they can do it for one layer of encapsulation. Supporting additional levels would mean updating, at a minimum, more IP length fields and they are unaware of this. No encapsulation device expresses support for handling offloaded encapsulated packets, so we won't generate these types of frames in the transmit path. However, GRO doesn't have a check for multiple levels of encapsulation and will attempt to build them. UDP tunnel GRO actually does prevent this situation but it only handles multiple UDP tunnels stacked on top of each other. This generalizes that solution to prevent any kind of tunnel stacking that would cause problems.

2015-10-21ipv6: gro: support sit protocolEric Dumazet1-0/+12
Tom Herbert added SIT support to GRO with commit 19424e052fb4 ("sit: Add gro callbacks to sit_offload"), later reverted by Herbert Xu. The problem came because Tom patch was building GRO packets without proper meta data : If packets were locally delivered, we would not care. But if packets needed to be forwarded, GSO engine was not able to segment individual segments. With the following patch, we correctly set skb->encapsulation and inner network header. We also update gso_type.

2014-10-20net: gso: use feature flag argument in all protocol gso handlersFlorian Westphal1-1/+1
skb_gso_segment() has a 'features' argument representing offload features available to the output path. A few handlers, e.g. GRE, instead re-fetch the features of skb->dev and use those instead of the provided ones when handing encapsulation/tunnels. Depending on dev->hw_enc_features of the output device skb_gso_segment() can then return NULL even when the caller has disabled all GSO feature bits, as segmentation of inner header thinks device will take care of segmentation. This e.g. affects the tbf scheduler, which will silently drop GRE-encap GSO skbs that did not fit the remaining token quota as the segmentation does not work when device supports corresponding hw offload capabilities.

2014-09-09ipv6: Clear flush_id to make GRO workTom Herbert1-0/+3
In TCP gro we check flush_id which is derived from the IP identifier. In IPv4 gro path the flush_id is set with the expectation that every matched packet increments IP identifier. In IPv6, the flush_id is never set and thus is uinitialized. What's worse is that in IPv6 over IPv4 encapsulation, the IP identifier is taken from the outer header which is currently not incremented on every packet for Linux stack, so GRO in this case never matches packets (identifier is not increasing). This patch clears flush_id for every time for a matched packet in IPv6 gro_receive. We need to do this each time to overwrite the setting that would be done in IPv4 gro_receive per the outer header in IPv6 over Ipv4 encapsulation.

2014-02-25ipv4: ipv6: better estimate tunnel header cut for correct ufo handlingHannes Frederic Sowa1-8/+12
Currently the UFO fragmentation process does not correctly handle inner UDP frames. (The following tcpdumps are captured on the parent interface with ufo disabled while tunnel has ufo enabled, 2000 bytes payload, mtu 1280, both sit device): IPv6: 16:39:10.031613 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3208, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPv6 (41), length 1300) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP6 (hlim 64, next-header Fragment (44) payload length: 1240) 2001::1 > 2001::8: frag (0x00000001:0|1232) 44883 > distinct: UDP, length 2000 16:39:10.031709 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3209, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPv6 (41), length 844) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP6 (hlim 64, next-header Fragment (44) payload length: 784) 2001::1 > 2001::8: frag (0x00000001:0|776) 58979 > 46366: UDP, length 5471 We can see that fragmentation header offset is not correctly updated. (fragmentation id handling is corrected by 916e4cf46d0204 ("ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data")). IPv4: 16:39:57.737761 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3209, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPIP (4), length 1296) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57034, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 1276) 192.168.99.1.35961 > 192.168.99.2.distinct: UDP, length 2000 16:39:57.738028 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3210, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPIP (4), length 792) 192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57035, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 772) 192.168.99.1.13531 > 192.168.99.2.20653: UDP, length 51109 In this case fragmentation id is incremented and offset is not updated. First, I aligned inet_gso_segment and ipv6_gso_segment: * align naming of flags * ipv6_gso_segment: setting skb->encapsulation is unnecessary, as we always ensure that the state of this flag is left untouched when returning from upper gso segmenation function * ipv6_gso_segment: move skb_reset_inner_headers below updating the fragmentation header data, we don't care for updating fragmentation header data * remove currently unneeded comment indicating skb->encapsulation might get changed by upper gso_segment callback (gre and udp-tunnel reset encapsulation after segmentation on each fragment) If we encounter an IPIP or SIT gso skb we now check for the protocol == IPPROTO_UDP and that we at least have already traversed another ip(6) protocol header. The reason why we have to special case GSO_IPIP and GSO_SIT is that we reset skb->encapsulation to 0 while skb_mac_gso_segment the inner protocol of GSO_UDP_TUNNEL or GSO_GRE packets.

2014-01-07net-gre-gro: Add GRE support to the GRO stackJerry Chu1-1/+1
This patch built on top of Commit 299603e8370a93dd5d8e8d800f0dff1ce2c53d36 ("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation protocols in the GRO stack in the future. The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path, thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly. Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/ ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE. The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE), the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when validating the GRE csum. Note that commit 60769a5dcd8755715c7143b4571d5c44f01796f1 "ipv4: gre: add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible. Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS). In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal. I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning will be needed to decide the best setting. All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs. (super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30) An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1 mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123) is configured. The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off). 1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off thruput: 9.16Gbps CPU utilization: 19% 1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off thruput: 5.9Gbps CPU utilization: 15% 1.3 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro on thruput: 9.26Gbps CPU utilization: 12-13% 1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on thruput: 9.26Gbps CPU utilization: 10% The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of csum offload.

2013-12-12net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling supportJerry Chu1-10/+44
This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header" and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later. With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g., skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows (e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a different hdr length. Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at most one "transport layer" in the encap chain. Signed-off-by: H.K.

2013-05-27MPLS: Add limited GSO supportSimon Horman1-0/+1
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets. The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets whose skbs are GSO. SKB Usage: When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do the following to skb metadata: * Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet. skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch. * Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet. * Set skb->network_header to correspond to the end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack. I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich. That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls() and was used to exercise this code. The datapath patch is against the Open vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point. Features: I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially consistent with the handling of other protocols. Jesse, I understand that you have some ideas here. I am more than happy to change my implementation. This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices to advertise features supported for MPLS packets. A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support hardware MPLS GSO offload. Currently no devices support this and MPLS GSO always falls back to software. Alternate Implementation: One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features() and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to __skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment(). I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled into the kernel or inserted as a module. MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross. Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE" by Pravin B Shelar.

Following patch adds GRE protocol offload handler so that skb_gso_segment() can segment GRE packets. SKB GSO CB is added to keep track of total header length so that skb_segment can push entire header. e.g. in case of GRE, skb_segment need to push inner and outer headers to every segment. New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW GRE TSO offload. Currently none of devices support it therefore GRE GSO always fall backs to software GSO.

2013-02-13net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation.Pravin B Shelar1-1/+0
Patch cef401de7be8c4e (net: fix possible wrong checksum generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type. net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation offload of such packets without the feature. Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared info tx_flags rather than gso_type. tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-01-28net: fix possible wrong checksum generationEric Dumazet1-0/+1
Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten by the user between the checksum computation and transmit. He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg(). This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be modified by the user. Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(), sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.
