Note that when a new netns is created, it inherits its sysctl_tcp_rmem and sysctl_tcp_wmem from initial netns. This change is needed so that we can refine TCP rcvbuf autotuning, to take RTT into consideration.

As we want to gradually implement per netns sysctl_rmem and sysctl_wmem on per protocol basis, add two new fields in struct proto, and two new helpers : sk_get_wmem0() and sk_get_rmem0() First user will be TCP. Then UDP and SCTP can be easily converted, while DECNET probably wont get this support. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The software bridge can be build with vlan filtering support included. However, by default it is turned off. In its turned off state, it still passes VLANs via switchev, even though they are not to be used. Don't pass these VLANs to the hardware. Only do so when vlan filtering is enabled. This fixes at least one corner case. There are still issues in other corners, such as when vlan_filtering is later enabled. Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

Andrew Lunn says: ==================== IGMP snooping for local traffic The linux bridge supports IGMP snooping. It will listen to IGMP reports on bridge ports and keep track of which groups have been joined on an interface. It will then forward multicast based on this group membership. When the bridge adds or removed groups from an interface, it uses switchdev to request the hardware add an mdb to a port, so the hardware can perform the selective forwarding between ports. What is not covered by the current bridge code, is IGMP joins/leaves from the host on the brX interface. These are not reported via switchdev so that hardware knows the local host is interested in the multicast frames. Luckily, the bridge does track joins/leaves on the brX interface. The code is obfusticated, which is why i missed it with my first attempt. So the first patch tries to remove this obfustication. Currently, there is no notifications sent when the bridge interface joins a group. The second patch adds them. bridge monitor then shows joins/leaves in the same way as for other ports of the bridge. Then starts the work passing down to the hardware that the host has joined/left a group. The existing switchdev mdb object cannot be used, since the semantics are different. The existing SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_PORT_MDB is used to indicate a specific multicast group should be forwarded out that port of the switch. However here we require the exact opposite. We want multicast frames for the group received on the port to the forwarded to the host. Hence add a new object SWITCHDEV_OBJ_ID_HOST_MDB, a multicast database entry to forward to the host. This new object is then propagated through the DSA layers. No DSA driver changes should be needed, this should just work... This version fixes up the nitpick from Nikolay, removes an unrelated white space change, and adds in a patch adding a few const attributes to a couple of functions taking a port parameter, in order to stop the following patch produces warnings. ==================== Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

When the VLAN tag is present in the packet buffer (i.e VLAN stripping disabled, QinQ) the driver will currently report CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Instead of using CHECKSUM_COMPLETE offload for packets with first ethertype of IPv4/6, use it for packets with last ethertype of IPv4/6 to cover the former cases as well. The checksum field present in the CQE is calculated from the IP header until the end of the packet. When the first ethertype is different than IPv4/6 (for ex. 802.1Q VLAN) a checksum of the VLAN header/s should be added. The small header/s checksum calculation will allow us to use CHECKSUM_COMPLETE instead of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

Cong Wang says: ==================== net_sched: close the race between call_rcu() and cleanup_net() This patchset tries to fix the race between call_rcu() and cleanup_net() again. Without holding the netns refcnt the tc_action_net_exit() in netns workqueue could be called before filter destroy works in tc filter workqueue. This patchset moves the netns refcnt from tc actions to tcf_exts, without breaking per-netns tc actions. Patch 1 reverts the previous fix, patch 2 introduces two new API's to help to address the bug and the rest patches switch to the new API's. Please see each patch for details. I was not able to reproduce this bug, but now after adding some delay in filter destroy work I manage to trigger the crash.

Instead of holding netns refcnt in tc actions, we can minimize the holding time by saving it in struct tcf_exts instead. This means we can just hold netns refcnt right before call_rcu() and release it after tcf_exts_destroy() is done. However, because on netns cleanup path we call tcf_proto_destroy() too, obviously we can not hold netns for a zero refcnt, in this case we have to do cleanup synchronously. It is fine for RCU too, the caller cleanup_net() already waits for a grace period. For other cases, refcnt is non-zero and we can safely grab it as normal and release it after we are done. This patch provides two new API for each filter to use: tcf_exts_get_net() and tcf_exts_put_net(). And all filters now can use the following pattern: void __destroy_filter() { tcf_exts_destroy(); tcf_exts_put_net(); // <== release netns refcnt kfree(); } void some_work() { rtnl_lock(); __destroy_filter(); rtnl_unlock(); } void some_rcu_callback() { tcf_queue_work(some_work); } if (tcf_exts_get_net()) // <== hold netns refcnt call_rcu(some_rcu_callback); else __destroy_filter(); Cc: Lucas Bates <lucasb@mojatatu.com> Cc: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Cc: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This reverts commit ceffcc5e. If we hold that refcnt, the netns can never be destroyed until all actions are destroyed by user, this breaks our netns design which we expect all actions are destroyed when we destroy the whole netns.
