Kernel-side struct msghdr is (currently) using the same layout as userland one, but it's not a one-to-one copy - even without considering 32bit compat issues, we have msg_iov, msg_name and msg_control copied to kernel[1]. It's fairly localized, so we get away with a few functions where that knowledge is needed (and we could shrink that set even more). Pretty much everything deals with the kernel-side variant and the few places that want userland one just use a bunch of force-casts to paper over the differences. The thing is, kernel-side definition of struct msghdr is *not* exposed in include/uapi - libc doesn't see it, etc. So we can add struct user_msghdr, with proper annotations and let the few places that ever deal with those beasts use it for userland pointers. Saner typechecking aside, that will allow to change the layout of kernel-side msghdr - e.g. replace msg_iov/msg_iovlen there with struct iov_iter, getting rid of the need to modify the iovec as we copy data to/from it, etc. We could introduce kernel_msghdr instead, but that would create much more noise - the absolute majority of the instances would need to have the type switched to kernel_msghdr and definition of struct msghdr in include/linux/socket.h is not going to be seen by userland anyway. This commit just introduces user_msghdr and switches the few places that are dealing with userland-side msghdr to it. [1] actually, it's even trickier than that - we copy msg_control for sendmsg, but keep the userland address on recvmsg. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

- fix NULL pointer dereference: kernel/bpf/arraymap.c:41 array_map_alloc() error: potential null dereference 'array'. (kzalloc returns null) kernel/bpf/arraymap.c:41 array_map_alloc() error: we previously assumed 'array' could be null (see line 40) - integer overflow check was missing in arraymap (hashmap checks for overflow via kmalloc_array()) - arraymap can round_up(value_size, 8) to zero. check was missing. - hashmap was missing zero size check as well, since roundup_pow_of_two() can truncate into zero - found a typo in the arraymap comment and unnecessary empty line Fix all of these issues and make both overflow checks explicit U32 in size.

While working on sk_forward_alloc problems reported by Denys Fedoryshchenko, we found that tcp connect() (and fastopen) do not call sk_wmem_schedule() for SYN packet (and/or SYN/DATA packet), so sk_forward_alloc is negative while connect is in progress. We can fix this by calling regular sk_stream_alloc_skb() both for the SYN packet (in tcp_connect()) and the syn_data packet in tcp_send_syn_data() Then, tcp_send_syn_data() can avoid copying syn_data as we simply can manipulate syn_data->cb[] to remove SYN flag (and increment seq) Instead of open coding memcpy_fromiovecend(), simply use this helper. This leaves in socket write queue clean fast clone skbs. This was tested against our fastopen packetdrill tests.

when swap_buffer() is being called, we know for sure, that we need to byte swap the data. Furthermore, this function is called for swapping data in both directions.

Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== implementation of eBPF maps v1->v2: renamed flags for MAP_UPDATE_ELEM command to be more concise, clarified commit logs and improved comments in patches 1,3,7 per discussions with Daniel Old v1 cover: this set of patches adds implementation of HASH and ARRAY types of eBPF maps which were described in manpage in commit b4fc1a46("Merge branch 'bpf-next'") The difference vs previous version of these patches from August: - added 'flags' attribute to BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM - in HASH type implementation removed per-map kmem_cache. I was doing kmem_cache_create() for every map to enable selective slub debugging to check for overflows and leaks. Now it's not needed, so just use normal kmalloc() for map elements. - added ARRAY type which was mentioned in manpage, but wasn't public yet - added map testsuite and removed temporary bits from test_stubs Note, eBPF programs cannot be attached to events yet. It will come in the next set. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

fix errno of BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM command as bpf manpage described it in commit b4fc1a46("Merge branch 'bpf-next'"): ----- BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM int bpf_lookup_elem(int fd, void *key, void *value) { union bpf_attr attr = { .map_fd = fd, .key = ptr_to_u64(key), .value = ptr_to_u64(value), }; return bpf(BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM, &attr, sizeof(attr)); } bpf() syscall looks up an element with given key in a map fd. If element is found it returns zero and stores element's value into value. If element is not found it returns -1 and sets errno to ENOENT. and further down in manpage: ENOENT For BPF_MAP_LOOKUP_ELEM or BPF_MAP_DELETE_ELEM, indicates that element with given key was not found. ----- In general all BPF commands return ENOENT when map element is not found (including BPF_MAP_GET_NEXT_KEY and BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM with flags == BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ONLY) Subsequent patch adds a testsuite to check return values for all of these combinations.

add new map type BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY and its implementation - optimized for fastest possible lookup() . in the future verifier/JIT may recognize lookup() with constant key and optimize it into constant pointer. Can optimize non-constant key into direct pointer arithmetic as well, since pointers and value_size are constant for the life of the eBPF program. In other words array_map_lookup_elem() may be 'inlined' by verifier/JIT while preserving concurrent access to this map from user space - two main use cases for array type: . 'global' eBPF variables: array of 1 element with key=0 and value is a collection of 'global' variables which programs can use to keep the state between events . aggregation of tracing events into fixed set of buckets - all array elements pre-allocated and zero initialized at init time - key as an index in array and can only be 4 byte - map_delete_elem() returns EINVAL, since elements cannot be deleted - map_update_elem() replaces elements in an non-atomic way (for atomic updates hashtable type should be used instead) Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

add new map type BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH and its implementation - maps are created/destroyed by userspace. Both userspace and eBPF programs can lookup/update/delete elements from the map - eBPF programs can be called in_irq(), so use spin_lock_irqsave() mechanism for concurrent updates - key/value are opaque range of bytes (aligned to 8 bytes) - user space provides 3 configuration attributes via BPF syscall: key_size, value_size, max_entries - map takes care of allocating/freeing key/value pairs - map_update_elem() must fail to insert new element when max_entries limit is reached to make sure that eBPF programs cannot exhaust memory - map_update_elem() replaces elements in an atomic way - optimized for speed of lookup() which can be called multiple times from eBPF program which itself is triggered by high volume of events . in the future JIT compiler may recognize lookup() call and optimize it further, since key_size is constant for life of eBPF program Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

the current meaning of BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM syscall command is: either update existing map element or create a new one. Initially the plan was to add a new command to handle the case of 'create new element if it didn't exist', but 'flags' style looks cleaner and overall diff is much smaller (more code reused), so add 'flags' attribute to BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM command with the following meaning: #define BPF_ANY 0 /* create new element or update existing */ #define BPF_NOEXIST 1 /* create new element if it didn't exist */ #define BPF_EXIST 2 /* update existing element */ bpf_update_elem(fd, key, value, BPF_NOEXIST) call can fail with EEXIST if element already exists. bpf_update_elem(fd, key, value, BPF_EXIST) can fail with ENOENT if element doesn't exist. Userspace will call it as: int bpf_update_elem(int fd, void *key, void *value, __u64 flags) { union bpf_attr attr = { .map_fd = fd, .key = ptr_to_u64(key), .value = ptr_to_u64(value), .flags = flags; }; return bpf(BPF_MAP_UPDATE_ELEM, &attr, sizeof(attr)); } First two bits of 'flags' are used to encode style of bpf_update_elem() command. Bits 2-63 are reserved for future use. Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-11-18 This series contains updates to i40e only. Shannon provides a patch to clean up the driver to only warn once that PTP is not supported when linked at 100Mbps. Mitch provides a fix for i40e where the VF interrupt processing takes a long time and it is possible that we could lose a VFLR event if it happens while processing a VFLR on another VF. To correct this situation, we enable the VFLR interrupt cause before we begin processing any pending resets. Neerav provides several patches to update DCB support in i40e. When there are DCB configuration changes based on DCBx, the firmware suspends the port's Tx and generates an event to the PF. The PF is then responsible to reconfigure the PF VSIs and switching topology as per the updated DCB configuration and then resume the port's Tx by calling the "Resume Port Tx" AQ command, so add this call to the flow that handles DCB re-configuration in the PF. Allow the driver to query and use DCB configuration from firmware when firmware DCBx agent is in CEE mode. Add a check whether LLDP Agent's default AdminStatus is enabled or disabled on a given port, and sets DCBx status to disabled if the status is disabled. Fix an issue when the port TC configuration changes as a result of DCBx and the driver modifies the enabled TCs for the VEBs it manages but does not update the enabled_tc value that was cached on a per VEB basis. Add a new PF state so that if a port's Tx is in suspended state the Tx queue disable flow would just put the request for the queue to be disabled and return without waiting for the queue to be actually disabled. Allows the driver to enable/disable the XPS based on the number of TCs being enabled for the given VSI. v2: Dropped patch "i40e: Handle a single mss packet with more than 8 frags" while we rework the patch after we test a bit more based on feedback from Eric Dumazet. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
