Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Make driver more robust In recent months we fixed several bugs in the driver that could have been avoided by re-evaluating some of the involved code paths and by introducing relevant and comprehensive test cases. This patchset tries to do that by introducing a set of small and mostly non-functional changes in addition to a new test. I have further improvements in mind, but they can be done in a different set. Patch #1 makes sure we correctly sanitize upper devices of a VLAN interface. Patch #2 removes an unexpected behavior from the driver, in which routes configured on a VLAN interface will cease being offloaded after certain operations. Patch #3 is a small cleanup. Patch #4 simplifies the driver by removing reference counting from VLAN entries configured on a port. Patches #5-#6 simplify linking/unlinking from a bridge, especially when LAG and VLAN devices are involved. They make both operations symmetric even when ports are unlinked from a bridged LAG device. Patch #7-#9 make router interface (RIF) deletion more robust by removing reliance on device chain to indicate whether a NETDEV_DOWN event in the inet{,6}addr notification chains should be processed. This is due to the fact that IP addresses can be flushed from a netdev after it was unlinked from its lower device. Patch #10 adds a new test to for valid and invalid configurations over mlxsw ports. Some of the test cases are derived from recent fixes. I expect that more test cases will be added over time. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Add a new test that is focused on rtnetlink configuration. Its purpose is to test valid and invalid (as deemed by mlxsw) configurations and make sure that they succeed / fail without producing a trace. Some of the test cases are derived from recent fixes in order to make sure that the fixed bugs are not introduced again. Signed-off-by:

Previous patches tried to make RIF deletion more robust and avoid use-after-free situations. As another precaution, hold a reference on a RIF's netdev and release it when the RIF is deleted. Signed-off-by:
-
Ido Schimmel authored
In the past we had multiple instances where RIFs were not properly deleted. One of the reasons for leaking a RIF was that at the time when IP addresses were flushed from the respective netdev (prompting the destruction of the RIF), the netdev was no longer a mlxsw upper. This caused the inet{,6}addr notification blocks to ignore the NETDEV_DOWN event and leak the RIF. Instead of checking whether the netdev is our upper when an IP address is removed, we can instead check if the netdev has a RIF configured. To look up a RIF we need to access mlxsw private data, so the patch stores the notification blocks inside a mlxsw struct. This then allows us to use container_of() and extract the required private data. Signed-off-by: -
Ido Schimmel authored
Next patch is going to make RIF deletion more robust by removing reliance on fragile mlxsw_sp_lower_get(). This is because a netdev is not necessarily our upper anymore when its IP addresses are flushed. The inet{,6}addr notification blocks are going to resolve 'struct mlxsw_sp' using container_of(), but the functions they call still use mlxsw_sp_lower_get(). As a preparation for the next patch, propagate 'struct mlxsw_sp' down to the functions called from the notification blocks and remove reliance on mlxsw_sp_lower_get(). Signed-off-by: -

When a LAG device or a VLAN device on top of it is enslaved to a bridge, the driver propagates the CHANGEUPPER event to the LAG's slaves. This causes each physical port to increase the reference count of the internal representation of the bridge port by calling mlxsw_sp_port_bridge_join(). However, when a port is removed from a LAG, the corresponding leave() function is not called and the reference count is not decremented. This leads to ugly hacks such as mlxsw_sp_bridge_port_should_destroy() that try to understand if the bridge port should be destroyed even when its reference count is not 0. Instead, make sure that when a port is unlinked from a LAG it would see the same events as if the LAG (or its uppers) were unlinked from a bridge. The above is achieved by walking the LAG's uppers when a port is unlinked and calling mlxsw_sp_port_bridge_leave() for each upper that is enslaved to a bridge. Signed-off-by:

Commit b3529af6 ("spectrum: Reference count VLAN entries") started reference counting port-VLAN entries in a similar fashion to the 8021q driver. However, this is not actually needed and only complicates things. Instead, the driver should forbid the creation of a VLAN on a port if this VLAN already exists. This would also solve the issue fixed by the mentioned commit. Therefore, remove the get()/put() API and use create()/destroy() instead. One place that needs special attention is VLAN addition in a VLAN-aware bridge via switchdev operations. In case the VLAN flags (e.g., 'pvid') are toggled, then the VLAN entry already exists. To prevent the driver from wrongly returning EEXIST, the driver is changed to check in the prepare phase whether the entry already exists and only returns an error in case it is not associated with the correct bridge port.

In commit 993107fe ("mlxsw: spectrum_switchdev: Fix VLAN device deletion via ioctl") I fixed a bug caused by the fact that the driver views differently the deletion of a VLAN device when it is deleted via an ioctl and netlink. Instead of relying on a specific order of events (device being unregistered vs. VLAN filter being updated), simply make sure that the driver performs the necessary cleanup when the VLAN device is unlinked, which always happens before the other two events.

Currently, when a RIF is constructed on top of a FID, the RIF increments the FID's reference count and the RIF is destroyed when the FID's reference count drops to 1. This effectively means that when no local ports are member in the FID, the FID is destroyed regardless if the router port is a member in the FID or not. The above can lead to the unexpected behavior in which routes using a VLAN interface as their nexthop device are no longer offloaded after the last local port leaves the corresponding VLAN (FID). Example: # ip -4 route show dev br0.10 192.0.2.0/24 proto kernel scope link src 192.0.2.1 offload # bridge vlan del vid 10 dev swp3 # ip -4 route show dev br0.10 192.0.2.0/24 proto kernel scope link src 192.0.2.1 After the patch, the route is offloaded before and after the VLAN is removed from local port 'swp3', as the RIF corresponding to 'br0.10' continues to exists. In order to remove RIFs' reliance on the underlying FID's reference count, we need to add a reference count to sub-port RIFs, which are RIFs that correspond to physical ports and their uppers (e.g., LAG devices). In this case, each {Port, VID} ('struct mlxsw_sp_port_vlan') needs to hold a reference on the RIF. For example: bond0.10 | bond0 | +-------+ | | swp1 swp2 Both {Port 1, VID 10} and {Port 2, VID 10} will hold a reference on the RIF corresponding to 'bond0.10'. When the last reference is dropped, the RIF will be destroyed. Signed-off-by: -

Currently, only VRF and macvlan uppers are supported on top of VLAN device configured over a bridge, so make sure the driver forbids other uppers. Note that enslavement to a VRF is handled earlier in the notification block, so there is no need to check for a VRF upper here. Signed-off-by:

Tuong Lien says: ==================== tipc: tracepoints and trace_events in TIPC The patch series is the first step of introducing a tracing framework in TIPC, which will assist in collecting complete & plentiful data for post analysis, even in the case of a single failure occurrence e.g. when the failure is unreproducible. The tracing code in TIPC utilizes the powerful kernel tracepoints, trace events features along with particular dump functions to trace the TIPC object data and events (incl. bearer, link, socket, node, etc.). The tracing code should generate zero-load to TIPC when the trace events are not enabled. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

The commit adds the new trace_events for TIPC socket object: trace_tipc_sk_create() trace_tipc_sk_poll() trace_tipc_sk_sendmsg() trace_tipc_sk_sendmcast() trace_tipc_sk_sendstream() trace_tipc_sk_filter_rcv() trace_tipc_sk_advance_rx() trace_tipc_sk_rej_msg() trace_tipc_sk_drop_msg() trace_tipc_sk_release() trace_tipc_sk_shutdown() trace_tipc_sk_overlimit1() trace_tipc_sk_overlimit2() Also, enables the traces for the following cases: - When user creates a TIPC socket; - When user calls poll() on TIPC socket; - When user sends a dgram/mcast/stream message. - When a message is put into the socket 'sk_receive_queue'; - When a message is released from the socket 'sk_receive_queue'; - When a message is rejected (e.g. due to no port, invalid, etc.); - When a message is dropped (e.g. due to wrong message type); - When socket is released; - When socket is shutdown; - When socket rcvq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%); - When socket rcvq + bklq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%); - When the 'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' issue happens; Note: a) All the socket traces are designed to be able to trace on a specific socket by either using the 'event filtering' feature on a known socket 'portid' value or the sysctl file: /proc/sys/net/tipc/sk_filter The file determines a 'tuple' for what socket should be traced: (portid, sock type, name type, name lower, name upper) where: + 'portid' is the socket portid generated at socket creating, can be found in the trace outputs or the 'tipc socket list' command printouts; + 'sock type' is the socket type (1 = SOCK_TREAM, ...); + 'name type', 'name lower' and 'name upper' are the service name being connected to or published by the socket. Value '0' means 'ANY', the default tuple value is (0, 0, 0, 0, 0) i.e. the traces happen for every sockets with no filter. b) The 'tipc_sk_overlimit1/2' event is also a conditional trace_event which happens when the socket receive queue (and backlog queue) is about to be overloaded, when the queue allocation is > 90%. Then, when the trace is enabled, the last skbs leading to the TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2 issue can be traced. The trace event is designed as an 'upper watermark' notification that the other traces (e.g. 'tipc_sk_advance_rx' vs 'tipc_sk_filter_rcv') or actions can be triggerred in the meanwhile to see what is going on with the socket queue. In addition, the 'trace_tipc_sk_dump()' is also placed at the 'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' case, so the socket and last skb can be dumped for post-analysis. Acked-by:

The commit adds the new trace_events for TIPC link object: trace_tipc_link_timeout() trace_tipc_link_fsm() trace_tipc_link_reset() trace_tipc_link_too_silent() trace_tipc_link_retrans() trace_tipc_link_bc_ack() trace_tipc_link_conges() And the traces for PROTOCOL messages at building and receiving: trace_tipc_proto_build() trace_tipc_proto_rcv() Note: a) The 'tipc_link_too_silent' event will only happen when the 'silent_intv_cnt' is about to reach the 'abort_limit' value (and the event is enabled). The benefit for this kind of event is that we can get an early indication about TIPC link loss issue due to timeout, then can do some necessary actions for troubleshooting. For example: To trigger the 'tipc_proto_rcv' when the 'too_silent' event occurs: echo 'enable_event:tipc:tipc_proto_rcv' > \ events/tipc/tipc_link_too_silent/trigger And disable it when TIPC link is reset: echo 'disable_event:tipc:tipc_proto_rcv' > \ events/tipc/tipc_link_reset/trigger b) The 'tipc_link_retrans' or 'tipc_link_bc_ack' event is useful to trace TIPC retransmission issues. In addition, the commit adds the 'trace_tipc_list/link_dump()' at the 'retransmission failure' case. Then, if the issue occurs, the link 'transmq' along with the link data can be dumped for post-analysis. These dump events should be enabled by default since it will only take effect when the failure happens. The same approach is also applied for the faulty case that the validation of protocol message is failed. Acked-by: -

As for the sake of debugging/tracing, the commit enables tracepoints in TIPC along with some general trace_events as shown below. It also defines some 'tipc_*_dump()' functions that allow to dump TIPC object data whenever needed, that is, for general debug purposes, ie. not just for the trace_events. The following trace_events are now available: - trace_tipc_skb_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC msg & skb data, e.g. message type, user, droppable, skb truesize, cloned skb, etc. - trace_tipc_list_dump(): allows to trace and dump any TIPC buffers or queues, e.g. TIPC link transmq, socket receive queue, etc. - trace_tipc_sk_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC socket data, e.g. sk state, sk type, connection type, rmem_alloc, socket queues, etc. - trace_tipc_link_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC link data, e.g. link state, silent_intv_cnt, gap, bc_gap, link queues, etc. - trace_tipc_node_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC node data, e.g. node state, active links, capabilities, link entries, etc. How to use: Put the trace functions at any places where we want to dump TIPC data or events. Note: a) The dump functions will generate raw data only, that is, to offload the trace event's processing, it can require a tool or script to parse the data but this should be simple. b) The trace_tipc_*_dump() should be reserved for a failure cases only (e.g. the retransmission failure case) or where we do not expect to happen too often, then we can consider enabling these events by default since they will almost not take any effects under normal conditions, but once the rare condition or failure occurs, we get the dumped data fully for post-analysis. For other trace purposes, we can reuse these trace classes as template but different events. c) A trace_event is only effective when we enable it. To enable the TIPC trace_events, echo 1 to 'enable' files in the events/tipc/ directory in the 'debugfs' file system. Normally, they are located at: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/ For example: To enable the tipc_link_dump event: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/tipc_link_dump/enable To enable all the TIPC trace_events: echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable To collect the trace data: cat trace or cat trace_pipe > /trace.out & To disable all the TIPC trace_events: echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable To clear the trace buffer: echo > trace d) Like the other trace_events, the feature like 'filter' or 'trigger' is also usable for the tipc trace_events.

Florian Westphal says: ==================== sk_buff: add extension infrastructure TL;DR: - objdiff shows no change if CONFIG_XFRM=n && BR_NETFILTER=n - small size reduction when one or both options are set - no changes in ipsec performance Changes since v1: - Allocate entire extension space from a kmem_cache. - Avoid atomic_dec_and_test operation on skb_ext_put() for refcnt == 1 case. (similar to kfree_skbmem() fclone_ref use). This adds an optional extension infrastructure, with ispec (xfrm) and bridge netfilter as first users. The third (future) user is Multipath TCP which is still out-of-tree. MPTCP needs to map logical mptcp sequence numbers to the tcp sequence numbers used by individual subflows. This DSS mapping is read/written from tcp option space on receive and written to tcp option space on transmitted tcp packets that are part of and MPTCP connection. Extending skb_shared_info or adding a private data field to skb fclones doesn't work for incoming skb, so a different DSS propagation method would be required for the receive side. mptcp has same requirements as secpath/bridge netfilter: 1. extension memory is released when the sk_buff is free'd. 2. data is shared after cloning an skb (clone inherits extension) 3. adding extension to an skb will COW the extension buffer if needed. Two new members are added to sk_buff: 1. 'active_extensions' byte (filling a hole), telling which extensions are available for this skb. This has two purposes. a) avoids the need to initialize the pointer. b) allows to "delete" an extension by clearing its bit value in ->active_extensions. While it would be possible to store the active_extensions byte in the extension struct instead of sk_buff, there is one problem with this: When an extension has to be disabled, we can always clear the bit in skb->active_extensions. But in case it would be stored in the extension buffer itself, we might have to COW it first, if we are dealing with a cloned skb. On kmalloc failure we would be unable to turn an extension off. 2. extension pointer, located at the end of the sk_buff. If the active_extensions byte is 0, the pointer is undefined, it is not initialized on skb allocation. This adds extra code to skb clone and free paths (to deal with refcount/free of extension area) but this replaces similar code that manages skb->nf_bridge and skb->sp structs in the followup patches of the series. It is possible to add support for extensions that are not preseved on clones/copies: 1. define a bitmask of all extensions that need copy/cow on clone 2. change __skb_ext_copy() to check ->active_extensions & SKB_EXT_PRESERVE_ON_CLONE 3. set clone->active_extensions to 0 if test is false. This isn't done here because all extensions that get added here need the copy/cow semantics. Last patch converts skb->sp, secpath information gets stored as new SKB_EXT_SEC_PATH, so the 'sp' pointer is removed from skbuff. Extra code added to skb clone and free paths (to deal with refcount/free of extension area) replaces the existing code that does the same for skb->nf_bridge and skb->secpath. I don't see any other in-tree users that could benefit from this infrastructure, it doesn't make sense to add an extension just for the sake of a single flag bit (like skb->nf_trace). Adding a new extension is a good fit if all of the following are true: 1. Data is related to the skb/packet aggregate 2. Data should be freed when the skb is free'd 3. Data is not going to be relevant/needed in normal case (udp, tcp, forwarding workloads, ...) 4. There are no fancy action(s) needed on clone/free, such as callbacks into kernel modules. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

secpath_set is a wrapper for secpath_dup that will not perform an allocation if the secpath attached to the skb has a reference count of one, i.e., it doesn't need to be COW'ed. Also, secpath_dup doesn't attach the secpath to the skb, it leaves this to the caller. Use secpath_set in places that immediately assign the return value to skb. This allows to remove skb->sp without touching these spots again. secpath_dup can eventually be removed in followup patch. Signed-off-by:

This isn't done here because all extensions that get added here need the copy/cow semantics. v2: Allocate entire extension space using kmem_cache. Upside is that this allows better tracking of used memory, downside is that we will allocate more space than strictly needed in most cases (its unlikely that all extensions are active/needed at same time for same skb). The allocated memory (except the small extension header) is not cleared, so no additonal overhead aside from memory usage. Avoid atomic_dec_and_test operation on skb_ext_put() by using similar trick as kfree_skbmem() does with fclone_ref: If recount is 1, there is no concurrent user and we can free right away.
