2013-01-17net: increase fragment memory usage limitsJesper Dangaard Brouer1-7/+15
Increase the amount of memory usage limits for incomplete IP fragments. Arguing for new thresh high/low values: High threshold = 4 MBytes Low threshold = 3 MBytes The fragmentation memory accounting code, tries to account for the real memory usage, by measuring both the size of frag queue struct (inet_frag_queue (ipv4:ipq/ipv6:frag_queue)) and the SKB's truesize. We want to be able to handle/hold-on-to enough fragments, to ensure good performance, without causing incomplete fragments to hurt scalability, by causing the number of inet_frag_queue to grow too much (resulting longer searches for frag queues). For IPv4, how much memory does the largest frag consume. Maximum size fragment is 64K, which is approx 44 fragments with MTU(1500) sized packets. Sizeof(struct ipq) is 200. A 1500 byte packet results in a truesize of 2944 (not 2048 as I first assumed) (44*2944)+200 = 129736 bytes The current default high thresh of 262144 bytes, is obviously problematic, as only two 64K fragments can fit in the queue at the same time. How many 64K fragment can we fit into 4 MBytes: 4*2^20/((44*2944)+200) = 32.34 fragment in queues An attacker could send a separate/distinct fake fragment packets per queue, causing us to allocate one inet_frag_queue per packet, and thus attacking the hash table and its lists. How many frag queue do we need to store, and given a current hash size of 64, what is the average list length. Using one MTU sized fragment per inet_frag_queue, each consuming (2944+200) 3144 bytes. 4*2^20/(2944+200) = 1334 frag queues -> 21 avg list length An attack could send small fragments, the smallest packet I could send resulted in a truesize of 896 bytes (I'm a little surprised by this). 4*2^20/(896+200) = 3827 frag queues -> 59 avg list length When increasing these number, we also need to followup with improvements, that is going to help scalability. Simply increasing the hash size, is not enough as the current implementation does not have a per hash bucket locking. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-17sk-filter: Add ability to lock a socket filter programVincent Bernat2-0/+17
While a privileged program can open a raw socket, attach some restrictive filter and drop its privileges (or send the socket to an unprivileged program through some Unix socket), the filter can still be removed or modified by the unprivileged program. This commit adds a socket option to lock the filter (SO_LOCK_FILTER) preventing any modification of a socket filter program. This is similar to OpenBSD BIOCLOCK ioctl on bpf sockets, except even root is not allowed change/drop the filter. The state of the lock can be read with getsockopt(). No error is triggered if the state is not changed. -EPERM is returned when a user tries to remove the lock or to change/remove the filter while the lock is active. The check is done directly in sk_attach_filter() and sk_detach_filter() and does not affect only setsockopt() syscall. Signed-off-by: Vincent Bernat <bernat@luffy.cx> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-14net: phy: remove flags argument from phy_{attach, connect, connect_direct}Florian Fainelli1-1/+1
The flags argument of the phy_{attach,connect,connect_direct} functions is then used to assign a struct phy_device dev_flags with its value. All callers but the tg3 driver pass the flag 0, which results in the underlying PHY drivers in drivers/net/phy/ not being able to actually use any of the flags they would set in dev_flags. This patch gets rid of the flags argument, and passes phydev->dev_flags to the internal PHY library call phy_attach_direct() such that drivers which actually modify a phy device dev_flags get the value preserved for use by the underlying phy driver.

2013-01-14pkt_sched: namespace aware act_mirredBenjamin LaHaise19-65/+80
Eric Dumazet pointed out that act_mirred needs to find the current net_ns, and struct net pointer is not provided in the call chain. His original patch made use of current->nsproxy->net_ns to find the network namespace, but this fails to work correctly for userspace code that makes use of netlink sockets in different network namespaces. Instead, pass the "struct net *" down along the call chain to where it is needed. This version removes the ifb changes as Eric has submitted that patch separately, but is otherwise identical to the previous version.

2013-01-11net: Export __netdev_pick_tx so that it can be used in modulesAlexander Duyck1-0/+1
When testing with FCoE enabled we discovered that I had not exported __netdev_pick_tx. As a result ixgbe doesn't build with the RFC patches applied because ixgbe_select_queue was calling the function. This change corrects that build issue by correctly exporting __netdev_pick_tx so it can be used by modules. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-10tcp: accept RST without ACK flagEric Dumazet1-2/+2
commit c3ae62af8e755 (tcp: should drop incoming frames without ACK flag set) added a regression on the handling of RST messages. RST should be allowed to come even without ACK bit set. We validate the RST by checking the exact sequence, as requested by RFC 793 and 5961 3.2, in tcp_validate_incoming() Reported-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Tested-by: Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-10net: Add support for XPS without sysfs being definedAlexander Duyck3-21/+21
This patch makes it so that we can support transmit packet steering without sysfs needing to be enabled. The reason for making this change is to make it so that a driver can make use of the XPS even while the sysfs portion of the interface is not present.

2013-01-10net: Rewrite netif_set_xps_queues to address several issuesAlexander Duyck1-66/+117
This change is meant to address several issues I found within the netif_set_xps_queues function. If the allocation of one of the maps to be assigned to new_dev_maps failed we could end up with the device map in an inconsistent state since we had already worked through a number of CPUs and removed or added the queue. To address that I split the process into several steps. The first of which is just the allocation of updated maps for CPUs that will need larger maps to store the queue. By doing this we can fail gracefully without actually altering the contents of the current device map. The second issue I found was the fact that we were always allocating a new device map even if we were not adding any queues. I have updated the code so that we only allocate a new device map if we are adding queues, otherwise if we are not adding any queues to CPUs we just skip to the removal process. The last change I made was to reuse the code from remove_xps_queue to remove the queue from the CPU. By making this change we can be consistent in how we go about adding and removing the queues from the CPUs. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-01-10net: Rewrite netif_reset_xps_queue to allow for better code reuseAlexander Duyck1-23/+33
This patch does a minor refactor on netif_reset_xps_queue to address a few items I noticed. First is the fact that we are doing removal of queues in both netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queue. Since there is no need to have the code in two places I am pushing it out into a separate function and will come back in another patch and reuse the code in netif_set_xps_queue. The second item this change addresses is the fact that the Tx queues were not getting their numa_node value cleared as a part of the XPS queue reset. This patch resolves that by resetting the numa_node value if the dev_maps value is set. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
