Jiri Pirko says: ==================== ipv4: fib: Replay events when registering FIB notifier Ido says: In kernel 4.9 the switchdev-specific FIB offload mechanism was replaced by a new FIB notification chain to which modules could register in order to be notified about the addition and deletion of FIB entries. The motivation for this change was that switchdev drivers need to be able to reflect the entire FIB table and not only FIBs configured on top of the port netdevs themselves. This is useful in case of in-band management. The fundamental problem with this approach is that upon registration listeners lose all the information previously sent in the chain and thus have an incomplete view of the FIB tables, which can result in packet loss. This patchset fixes that by dumping the FIB tables and replaying notifications previously sent in the chain for the registered notification block. The entire dump process is done under RCU and thus the FIB notification chain is converted to be atomic. The listeners are modified accordingly. This is done in the first eight patches. The ninth patch adds a change sequence counter to ensure the integrity of the FIB dump. The last patch adds the dump itself to the FIB chain registration function and modifies existing listeners to pass a callback to be executed in case dump was inconsistent. --- v3->v4: - Register the notification block after the dump and protect it using the change sequence counter (Hannes Frederic Sowa). - Since we now integrate the dump into the registration function, drop the sysctl to set maximum number of retries and instead set it to a fixed number. Lets see if it's really a problem before adding something we can never remove. - For the same reason, dump FIB tables for all net namespaces. - Add a comment regarding guarantees provided by mutex semantics. v2->v3: - Add sysctl to set the number of FIB dump retries (Hannes Frederic Sowa). - Read the sequence counter under RTNL to ensure synchronization between the dump process and other processes changing the routing tables (Hannes Frederic Sowa). - Pass a callback to the dump function to be executed prior to a retry. - Limit the dump to a single net namespace. v1->v2: - Add a sequence counter to ensure the integrity of the FIB dump (David S. Miller, Hannes Frederic Sowa). - Protect notifications from re-ordering in listeners by using an ordered workqueue (Hannes Frederic Sowa). - Introduce fib_info_hold() (Jiri Pirko). - Relieve rocker from the need to invoke the FIB dump by registering to the FIB notification chain prior to ports creation. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S.

Commit b90eb754 ("fib: introduce FIB notification infrastructure") introduced a new notification chain to notify listeners (f.e., switchdev drivers) about addition and deletion of routes. However, upon registration to the chain the FIB tables can already be populated, which means potential listeners will have an incomplete view of the tables. Solve that by dumping the FIB tables and replaying the events to the passed notification block. The dump itself is done using RCU in order not to starve consumers that need RTNL to make progress. The integrity of the dump is ensured by reading the FIB change sequence counter before and after the dump under RTNL. This allows us to avoid the problematic situation in which the dumping process sends a ENTRY_ADD notification following ENTRY_DEL generated by another process holding RTNL. Callers of the registration function may pass a callback that is executed in case the dump was inconsistent with current FIB tables. The number of retries until a consistent dump is achieved is set to a fixed number to prevent callers from looping for long periods of time. In case current limit proves to be problematic in the future, it can be easily converted to be configurable using a sysctl. Signed-off-by:

The next patch will enable listeners of the FIB notification chain to request a dump of the FIB tables. However, since RTNL isn't taken during the dump, it's possible for the FIB tables to change mid-dump, which will result in inconsistency between the listener's table and the kernel's. Allow listeners to know about changes that occurred mid-dump, by adding a change sequence counter to each net namespace. The counter is incremented just before a notification is sent in the FIB chain. Signed-off-by:

In order not to hold RTNL for long periods of time we're going to dump the FIB tables using RCU. Convert the FIB notification chain to be atomic, as we can't block in RCU critical sections. Signed-off-by:

We can miss FIB notifications sent between the time the ports were created and the FIB notification block registered. Instead of receiving these notifications only when they are replayed for the FIB notification block during registration, just register the notification block before the ports are created.

FIB offload is currently done in process context with RTNL held, but we're about to dump the FIB tables in RCU critical section, so we can no longer sleep. Instead, defer the operation to process context using deferred work. Make sure fib info isn't freed while the work is queued by taking a reference on it and releasing it after the operation is done. Deferring the operation is valid because the upper layers always assume the operation was successful. If it's not, then the driver-specific abort mechanism is called and all routed traffic is directed to slow path. The work items are submitted to an ordered workqueue to prevent a mismatch between the kernel's FIB table and the device's. Signed-off-by:

We're going to start processing FIB entries addition / deletion events in deferred work. These work items must be processed in the order they were submitted or otherwise we can have differences between the kernel's FIB table and the device's. Solve this by creating an ordered workqueue to which these work items will be submitted to. Note that we can't simply convert the current workqueue to be ordered, as EMADs re-transmissions are also processed in deferred work. Later on, we can migrate other work items to this workqueue, such as FDB notification processing and nexthop resolution, since they all take the same lock anyway. Signed-off-by:

The FIB notification chain is going to be converted to an atomic chain, which means switchdev drivers will have to offload FIB entries in deferred work, as hardware operations entail sleeping. However, while the work is queued fib info might be freed, so a reference must be taken. To release the reference (and potentially free the fib info) fib_info_put() will be called, which in turn calls free_fib_info(). Export free_fib_info() so that modules will be able to invoke fib_info_put(). Signed-off-by:

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-12-02 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Alex provides changes so that we are much more robust about defining what we can and cannot offload in i40e and i40evf by doing additional checks other than L4 tunnel header length. Jake provides several fixes/changes, first cleaning up a label that is unnecessary, as well as cleaned up the use of a "magic number". Clarified the code by separating the global private flags and the regular private flags per interface into two arrays, so that future additions will not produce duplication and buggy code. Adds additional checks to protect against NULL values for msix_entries and q_vectors pointers. Michal adds Clause22 method for accessing registers for some external PHYs. Piotr adds additional protocol support for the admin queue discover capabilities function. Tushar Dave fixes a panic seen on SPARC, where writel() should not be used to write directly to a memory address but only to a memory mapped I/O address otherwise it causes data access exceptions. Joe Perches separates out a section of code into its own function, to help reduce i40evf_reset_task() a bit. Alan fixes an issue by checking for NULL before dereferencing msix_entries and returning early in the case where it is NULL within the i40evf_close() code path. Henry provides code cleanup to remove unreachable and redundant sections of code. Fixed up an issue where new NICs were not identifying "unknown PHYs" correctly. Harshitha fixes a issue where the ethtool "Supported Link" modes list backplane interfaces on X722 devices for 10 GbE with SFP+ and Cortina retimer, where these interfaces should not be visible to the user since they cannot use them. Carolyn changes an X722 informational message so that it only appears when extra messages are desired. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Before commit 850cbadd ("udp: use it's own memory accounting schema"), the udp protocol allowed sk_rmem_alloc to grow beyond the rcvbuf by the whole current packet's truesize. After said commit we allow sk_rmem_alloc to exceed the rcvbuf only if the receive queue is empty. As reported by Jesper this cause a performance regression for some (small) values of rcvbuf. This commit is intended to fix the regression restoring the old handling of the rcvbuf limit. Reported-by:

Logically, EFX_BUG_ON_PARANOID can never be correct. For, BUG_ON should only be used if it is not possible to continue without potential harm; and since the non-DEBUG driver will continue regardless (as the BUG_ON is compiled out), clearly the BUG_ON cannot be needed in the DEBUG driver. So, replace every EFX_BUG_ON_PARANOID with either an EFX_WARN_ON_PARANOID or the newly defined EFX_WARN_ON_ONCE_PARANOID. Signed-off-by:

Sargun Dhillon says: ==================== samples, bpf: Refactor; Add automated tests for cgroups These two patches are around refactoring out some old, reusable code from the existing test_current_task_under_cgroup_user test, and adding a new, automated test. There is some generic cgroupsv2 setup & cleanup code, given that most environment still don't have it setup by default. With this code, we're able to pretty easily add an automated test for future cgroupsv2 functionality. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

This patch adds the sample program test_cgrp2_attach2. This program is similar to test_cgrp2_attach, but it performs automated testing of the cgroupv2 BPF attached filters. It runs the following checks: * Simple filter attachment * Application of filters to child cgroups * Overriding filters on child cgroups * Checking that this still works when the parent filter is removed The filters that are used here are simply allow all / deny all filters, so it isn't checking the actual functionality of the filters, but rather the behaviour around detachment / attachment. If net_cls is enabled, this test will fail. Signed-off-by:

net_generic() function is both a) inline and b) used ~600 times. It has the following code inside ... ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1]; ... "id" is never compile time constant so compiler is forced to subtract 1. And those decrements or LEA [r32 - 1] instructions add up. We also start id'ing from 1 to catch bugs where pernet sybsystem id is not initialized and 0. This is quite pointless idea (nothing will work or immediate interference with first registered subsystem) in general but it hints what needs to be done for code size reduction. Namely, overlaying allocation of pointer array and fixed part of structure in the beginning and using usual base-0 addressing. Ids are just cookies, their exact values do not matter, so lets start with 3 on x86_64.

Publishing net_generic pointer is done with silly mistake: new array is published BEFORE setting freshly acquired pernet subsystem pointer. memcpy rcu_assign_pointer kfree_rcu ng->ptr[id - 1] = data; This bug was introduced with commit dec827d1 ("[NETNS]: The generic per-net pointers.") in the glorious days of chopping networking stack into containers proper 8.5 years ago (whee...) How it didn't trigger for so long? Well, you need quite specific set of conditions: *) race window opens once per pernet subsystem addition (read: modprobe or boot) *) not every pernet subsystem is eligible (need ->id and ->size) *) not every pernet subsystem is vulnerable (need incorrect or absense of ordering of register_pernet_sybsys() and actually using net_generic()) *) to hide the bug even more, default is to preallocate 13 pointers which is actually quite a lot. You need IPv6, netfilter, bridging etc together loaded to trigger reallocation in the first place. Trimmed down config are OK. Signed-off-by:

nla_ok() consists of 3 clauses: 1) int rem >= (int)sizeof(struct nlattr) 2) u16 nla_len >= sizeof(struct nlattr) 3) u16 nla_len <= int rem The statement is that clause (1) is redundant. What it does is ensuring that "rem" is a positive number, so that in clause (3) positive number will be compared to positive number with no problems. However, "u16" fully fits into "int" and integers do not change value when upcasting even to signed type. Negative integers will be rejected by clause (3) just fine. Small positive integers will be rejected by transitivity of comparison operator. NOTE: all of the above DOES NOT apply to nlmsg_ok() where ->nlmsg_len is u32(!), so 3 clauses AND A CAST TO INT are necessary.
