2014-08-06netlink: hold nl_sock_hash_lock during diag dumpThomas Graf1-0/+3
Although RCU protection would be possible during diag dump, doing so allows for concurrent table mutations which can render the in-table offset between individual Netlink messages invalid and thus cause legitimate sockets to be skipped in the dump. Since the diag dump is relatively low volume and consistency is more important than performance, the table mutex is held during dump.

2014-08-02netlink: Convert netlink_lookup() to use RCU protected hash tableThomas Graf1-3/+8
Heavy Netlink users such as Open vSwitch spend a considerable amount of time in netlink_lookup() due to the read-lock on nl_table_lock. Use of RCU relieves the lock contention. Makes use of the new resizable hash table to avoid locking on the lookup. The hash table will grow if entries exceeds 75% of table size up to a total table size of 64K. It will automatically shrink if usage falls below 30%. Also splits nl_table_lock into a separate mutex to protect hash table mutations and allow synchronize_rcu() to sleep while waiting for readers during expansion and shrinking.

2013-03-21netlink: Diag core and basic socket info dumping (v2)Andrey Vagin1-0/+188
The netlink_diag can be built as a module, just like it's done in unix sockets. The core dumping message carries the basic info about netlink sockets: family, type and protocol, portis, dst_group, dst_portid, state. Groups can be received as an optional parameter NETLINK_DIAG_GROUPS. Netlink sockets cab be filtered by protocols. The socket inode number and cookie is reserved for future per-socket info retrieving. The per-protocol filtering is also reserved for future by requiring the sdiag_protocol to be zero. The file /proc/net/netlink doesn't provide enough information for dumping netlink sockets. It doesn't provide dst_group, dst_portid, groups above 32. v2: fix NETLINK_DIAG_MAX. Now it's equal to the last constant. Acked-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@parallels.com> Cc: "David S.
