  • 299b07676   ipv6: Fix IPsec slowpath fragmentation problem ... Browse Code »
    43

    ip6_append_data() builds packets based on the mtu from dst_mtu(rt->dst.path).
    On IPsec the effective mtu is lower because we need to add the protocol
    headers and trailers later when we do the IPsec transformations. So after
    the IPsec transformations the packet might be too big, which leads to a
    slowpath fragmentation then. This patch fixes this by building the packets
    based on the lower IPsec mtu from dst_mtu(&rt->dst) and adapts the exthdr
    handling to this.

  • 71338aa7d   net: convert %p usage to %pK ... Browse Code »

    The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
    specifically via /proc interfaces. Exposing these pointers provides an
    easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
    locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
    pointers. The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

    If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
    occurs. If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
    (intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
    (currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
    If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
    0's regardless of privileges. Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
    default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
    "(nil)".

    The supporting code for kptr_restrict and %pK are currently in the -mm
    tree. This patch converts users of %p in net/ to %pK. Cases of printing
    pointers to the syslog are not covered, since this would eliminate useful
    information for postmortem debugging and the reading of the syslog is
    already optionally protected by the dmesg_restrict sysctl.

  • bdc712b4c   inet: Decrease overhead of on-stack inet_cork. ... Browse Code »

    When we fast path datagram sends to avoid locking by putting
    the inet_cork on the stack we use up lots of space that isn't
    necessary.

    This is because inet_cork contains a "struct flowi" which isn't
    used in these code paths.

    Split inet_cork to two parts, "inet_cork" and "inet_cork_full".
    Only the latter of which has the "struct flowi" and is what is
    stored in inet_sock.

  • 68d0c6d34   ipv6: Consolidate route lookup sequences. ... Browse Code »

    Route lookups follow a general pattern in the ipv6 code wherein
    we first find the non-IPSEC route, potentially override the
    flow destination address due to ipv6 options settings, and then
    finally make an IPSEC search using either xfrm_lookup() or
    __xfrm_lookup().

    __xfrm_lookup() is used when we want to generate a blackhole route
    if the key manager needs to resolve the IPSEC rules (in this case
    -EREMOTE is returned and the original 'dst' is left unchanged).

    Otherwise plain xfrm_lookup() is used and when asynchronous IPSEC
    resolution is necessary, we simply fail the lookup completely.

    All of these cases are encapsulated into two routines,
    ip6_dst_lookup_flow and ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow. The latter of which
    handles unconnected UDP datagram sockets.

  • 20c59de2e   ipv6: Refactor update of IPv6 flowi destination address for srcrt (RH) option ... Browse Code »

    There are more than a dozen occurrences of following code in the
    IPv6 stack:

    if (opt && opt->srcrt) {
    struct rt0_hdr *rt0 = (struct rt0_hdr *) opt->srcrt;
    ipv6_addr_copy(&final, &fl.fl6_dst);
    ipv6_addr_copy(&fl.fl6_dst, rt0->addr);
    final_p = &final;
    }

    Replace those with a helper. Note that the helper overrides final_p
    in all cases. This is ok as final_p was previously initialized to
    NULL when declared.

  • 5a0e3ad6a   include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implic… ... Browse Code »

    …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

  • c720c7e83   inet: rename some inet_sock fields ... Browse Code »

    In order to have better cache layouts of struct sock (separate zones
    for rx/tx paths), we need this preliminary patch.

    Goal is to transfert fields used at lookup time in the first
    read-mostly cache line (inside struct sock_common) and move sk_refcnt
    to a separate cache line (only written by rx path)

    This patch adds inet_ prefix to daddr, rcv_saddr, dport, num, saddr,
    sport and id fields. This allows a future patch to define these
    fields as macros, like sk_refcnt, without name clashes.

  • 3b885787e   net: Generalize socket rx gap / receive queue overflow cmsg ... Browse Code »

    Create a new socket level option to report number of queue overflows

    Recently I augmented the AF_PACKET protocol to report the number of frames lost
    on the socket receive queue between any two enqueued frames. This value was
    exported via a SOL_PACKET level cmsg. AFter I completed that work it was
    requested that this feature be generalized so that any datagram oriented socket
    could make use of this option. As such I've created this patch, It creates a
    new SOL_SOCKET level option called SO_RXQ_OVFL, which when enabled exports a
    SOL_SOCKET level cmsg that reports the nubmer of times the sk_receive_queue
    overflowed between any two given frames. It also augments the AF_PACKET
    protocol to take advantage of this new feature (as it previously did not touch
    sk->sk_drops, which this patch uses to record the overflow count). Tested
    successfully by me.

    Notes:

    1) Unlike my previous patch, this patch simply records the sk_drops value, which
    is not a number of drops between packets, but rather a total number of drops.
    Deltas must be computed in user space.

    2) While this patch currently works with datagram oriented protocols, it will
    also be accepted by non-datagram oriented protocols. I'm not sure if thats
    agreeable to everyone, but my argument in favor of doing so is that, for those
    protocols which aren't applicable to this option, sk_drops will always be zero,
    and reporting no drops on a receive queue that isn't used for those
    non-participating protocols seems reasonable to me. This also saves us having
    to code in a per-protocol opt in mechanism.

    3) This applies cleanly to net-next assuming that commit
    977750076d98c7ff6cbda51858bb5a5894a9d9ab (my af packet cmsg patch) is reverted

  • 6ce9e7b5f   ip: Report qdisc packet drops ... Browse Code »

    Christoph Lameter pointed out that packet drops at qdisc level where not
    accounted in SNMP counters. Only if application sets IP_RECVERR, drops
    are reported to user (-ENOBUFS errors) and SNMP counters updated.

    IP_RECVERR is used to enable extended reliable error message passing,
    but these are not needed to update system wide SNMP stats.

    This patch changes things a bit to allow SNMP counters to be updated,
    regardless of IP_RECVERR being set or not on the socket.

    Example after an UDP tx flood
    # netstat -s
    ...
    IP:
    1487048 outgoing packets dropped
    ...
    Udp:
    ...
    SndbufErrors: 1487048

    send() syscalls, do however still return an OK status, to not
    break applications.

    Note : send() manual page explicitly says for -ENOBUFS error :

    "The output queue for a network interface was full.
    This generally indicates that the interface has stopped sending,
    but may be caused by transient congestion.
    (Normally, this does not occur in Linux. Packets are just silently
    dropped when a device queue overflows.) "

    This is not true for IP_RECVERR enabled sockets : a send() syscall
    that hit a qdisc drop returns an ENOBUFS error.

    Many thanks to Christoph, David, and last but not least, Alexey !
