One of our customers observed issues with FIB6 garbage collectors running in different network namespaces blocking each other, resulting in soft lockups (fib6_run_gc() initiated from timer runs always in forced mode). Now that FIB6 walkers are separated per namespace, there is no more need for instances of fib6_run_gc() in different namespaces blocking each other. There is still a call to icmp6_dst_gc() which operates on shared data but this function is protected by its own shared lock.

The IPv6 FIB data structures are separated per network namespace but there is still only one global walkers list and one global walker list lock. This means changes in one namespace unnecessarily interfere with walkers in other namespaces. Replace the global list with per-netns lists (and give each its own lock).

Global variable gc_args is only used in fib6_run_gc() and functions called from it. As fib6_run_gc() makes sure there is at most one instance of fib6_clean_all() running at any moment, we can replace gc_args with a local variable which will be needed once multiple instances (per netns) of garbage collector are allowed.

This fix is for dsmark similar to commit 3557619f ("net_sched: prio: use qdisc_dequeue_peeked") and makes use of qdisc_dequeue_peeked() instead of direct dequeue() call. First time, wrr peeks dsmark, which will then peek into sfq. sfq dequeues an skb and it's stored in sch->gso_skb. Next time, wrr tries to dequeue from dsmark, which will call sfq dequeue directly. This results skipping the previously peeked skb. So changed dsmark dequeue to call qdisc_dequeue_peeked() instead to use peeked skb if exists.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree, they are: 1) Remove useless debug message when deleting IPVS service, from Yannick Brosseau. 2) Get rid of compilation warning when CONFIG_PROC_FS is unset in several spots of the IPVS code, from Arnd Bergmann. 3) Add prandom_u32 support to nft_meta, from Florian Westphal. 4) Remove unused variable in xt_osf, from Sudip Mukherjee. 5) Don't calculate IP checksum twice from netfilter ipv4 defrag hook since fixing af_packet defragmentation issues, from Joe Stringer. 6) On-demand hook registration for iptables from netns. Instead of registering the hooks for every available netns whenever we need one of the support tables, we register this on the specific netns that needs it, patchset from Florian Westphal. 7) Add missing port range selection to nf_tables masquerading support. BTW, just for the record, there is a typo in the description of 5f6c253e ("netfilter: bridge: register hooks only when bridge interface is added") that refers to the cluster match as deprecated, but it is actually the CLUSTERIP target (which registers hooks inconditionally) the one that is scheduled for removal. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The assumptions from commit 0c1d70af ("net: use dst_cache for vxlan device"), 468dfffc ("geneve: add dst caching support") and 3c1cb4d2 ("net/ipv4: add dst cache support for gre lwtunnels") on dst_cache usage when ip_tunnel_info is used is unfortunately not always valid as assumed. While it seems correct for ip_tunnel_info front-ends such as OVS, eBPF however can fill in ip_tunnel_info for consumers like vxlan, geneve or gre with different remote dsts, tos, etc, therefore they cannot be assumed as packet independent. Right now vxlan, geneve, gre would cache the dst for eBPF and every packet would reuse the same entry that was first created on the initial route lookup. eBPF doesn't store/cache the ip_tunnel_info, so each skb may have a different one. Fix it by adding a flag that checks the ip_tunnel_info. Also the !tos test in vxlan needs to be handeled differently in this context as it is currently inferred from ip_tunnel_info as well if present. ip_tunnel_dst_cache_usable() helper is added for the three tunnel cases, which checks if we can use dst cache.

After eBPF being able to programmatically access/manage tunnel key meta data via commit d3aa45ce ("bpf: add helpers to access tunnel metadata") and more recently also for IPv6 through c6c33454 ("bpf: support ipv6 for bpf_skb_{set,get}_tunnel_key"), this work adds two complementary helpers to generically access their auxiliary tunnel options. Geneve and vxlan support this facility. For geneve, TLVs can be pushed, and for the vxlan case its GBP extension. I.e. setting tunnel key for geneve case only makes sense, if we can also read/write TLVs into it. In the GBP case, it provides the flexibility to easily map the group policy ID in combination with other helpers or maps. I chose to model this as two separate helpers, bpf_skb_{set,get}_tunnel_opt(), for a couple of reasons. bpf_skb_{set,get}_tunnel_key() is already rather complex by itself, and there may be cases for tunnel key backends where tunnel options are not always needed. If we would have integrated this into bpf_skb_{set,get}_tunnel_key() nevertheless, we are very limited with remaining helper arguments, so keeping compatibility on structs in case of passing in a flat buffer gets more cumbersome. Separating both also allows for more flexibility and future extensibility, f.e. options could be fed directly from a map, etc. Moreover, change geneve's xmit path to test only for info->options_len instead of TUNNEL_GENEVE_OPT flag. This makes it more consistent with vxlan's xmit path and allows for avoiding to specify a protocol flag in the API on xmit, so it can be protocol agnostic. Having info->options_len is enough information that is needed. Tested with vxlan and geneve.

Commit 7d672345 ("bpf: add generic bpf_csum_diff helper") added a generic checksum diff helper that can feed bpf_l4_csum_replace() with a target __wsum diff that is to be applied to the L4 checksum. This facility is very flexible, can be cascaded, allows for adding, removing, or diffing data, or for calculating the pseudo header checksum from scratch, but it can also be reused for working with the IPv4 header checksum. Thus, analogous to bpf_l4_csum_replace(), add a case for header field value of 0 to change the checksum at a given offset through a new helper csum_replace_by_diff(). Also, in addition to that, this provides an easy to use interface for feeding precalculated diffs f.e. coming from a map. It nicely complements bpf_l3_csum_replace() that currently allows only for csum updates of 2 and 4 byte diffs.

This reverts commit dbb17a21. It turns out that commit can cause problems for systems with multiple GPUs, and causes X to hang on at least a HP Pavilion dv7 with hybrid graphics. This got noticed originally in 4.4.4, where this patch had already gotten back-ported, but 4.5-rc7 was verified to have the same problem. Alexander Deucher says: "It looks like you have a muxed system so I suspect what's happening is that one of the display is being reported as connected for both the IGP and the dGPU and then the desktop environment gets confused or there some sort problem in the detect functions since the mux is not switched to the dGPU.

During hot add, vmbus_device_register() is called from vmbus_onoffer(), on the same workqueue as the subchannel offer message work-queue, so subchannel offer won't be processed until the vmbus_device_register()/... /netvsc_probe() is done. Also, vmbus_device_register() is called with channel_mutex locked, which prevents subchannel processing too. So the "waiting for sub-channel processing" will not success in hot add case. But, in usual module loading, the netvsc_probe() is called from different code path, and doesn't fail. This patch resolves the deadlock during NIC hot-add, and speeds up NIC loading time.

IPv4 interprets a negative return value from a protocol handler as a request to redispatch to a new protocol. In contrast, IPv6 interprets a negative value as an error, and interprets a positive value as a request for redispatch. UDP for IPv6 was unaware of this difference. Change __udp6_lib_rcv() to return a positive value for redispatch. Note that the socket's encap_rcv hook still needs to return a negative value to request dispatch, and in the case of IPv6 packets, adjust IP6CB(skb)->nhoff to identify the byte containing the next protocol.

vmxnet3 has a function vmxnet3_parse_and_copy_hdr which, among other operations, uses pskb_may_pull to linearize the header portion of an skb. That operation eventually uses local_bh_disable/enable to ensure that it doesn't race with the drivers bottom half handler. Unfortunately, vmxnet3 preforms this parse_and_copy operation with a spinlock held and interrupts disabled. This causes us to run afoul of the WARN_ON_ONCE(irqs_disabled()) warning in local_bh_enable, resulting in this: WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:159 local_bh_enable+0x59/0x90() (Not tainted) Hardware name: VMware Virtual Platform Modules linked in: ipv6 ppdev parport_pc parport microcode e1000 vmware_balloon vmxnet3 i2c_piix4 sg ext4 jbd2 mbcache sd_mod crc_t10dif sr_mod cdrom mptspi mptscsih mptbase scsi_transport_spi pata_acpi ata_generic ata_piix vmwgfx ttm drm_kms_helper drm i2c_core dm_mirror dm_region_hash dm_log dm_mod [last unloaded: mperf] Pid: 6229, comm: sshd Not tainted 2.6.32-616.el6.i686 #1 Call Trace: [<c04624d9>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x89/0xe0 [<c0469e99>] ? local_bh_enable+0x59/0x90 [<c046254b>] ? warn_slowpath_null+0x1b/0x20 [<c0469e99>] ? local_bh_enable+0x59/0x90 [<c07bb936>] ? skb_copy_bits+0x126/0x210 [<f8d1d9fe>] ? ext4_ext_find_extent+0x24e/0x2d0 [ext4] [<c07bc49e>] ? __pskb_pull_tail+0x6e/0x2b0 [<f95a6164>] ? vmxnet3_xmit_frame+0xba4/0xef0 [vmxnet3] [<c05d15a6>] ? selinux_ip_postroute+0x56/0x320 [<c0615988>] ? cfq_add_rq_rb+0x98/0x110 [<c0852df8>] ? packet_rcv+0x48/0x350 [<c07c5839>] ? dev_queue_xmit_nit+0xc9/0x140 ...
