  • c7066f70d   netfilter: fix Kconfig dependencies ... Browse Code »

    Fix dependencies of netfilter realm match: it depends on NET_CLS_ROUTE,
    which itself depends on NET_SCHED; this dependency is missing from netfilter.

    Since matching on realms is also useful without having NET_SCHED enabled and
    the option really only controls whether the tclassid member is included in
    route and dst entries, rename the config option to IP_ROUTE_CLASSID and move
    it outside of traffic scheduling context to get rid of the NET_SCHED dependeny.

  • 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.

  • 04f217aca   [TC]: oops in em_meta ... Browse Code »

    If userspace passes a unknown match index into em_meta, then
    em_meta_change will return an error and the data for the match will
    not be set. This then causes an null pointer dereference when the
    cleanup is done in the error path via tcf_em_tree_destroy. Since the
    tree structure comes kzalloc, it is initialized to NULL.

    Discovered when testing a new version of tc command against an
    accidental older kernel.

  • 881d966b4   [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace. ... Browse Code »

    This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
    namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
    network namespace variable, and then it picks up
    a few associated variables. The functions:
    dev_getbyhwaddr
    dev_getfirsthwbytype
    dev_get_by_flags
    dev_get_by_name
    __dev_get_by_name
    dev_get_by_index
    __dev_get_by_index
    dev_ioctl
    dev_ethtool
    dev_load
    wireless_process_ioctl

    were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
    deal with it.

    vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
    hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

    So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
    affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
    multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
    simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
    namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
    stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

    For now the ifindex generator is left global.

    Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
    we will have corner case problems with migration when
    we get that far.

    At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
    that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
    the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
    the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
    you change namespaces, and the like.

  • 81c3d5470   [INET]: speedup inet (tcp/dccp) lookups ... Browse Code »

    Arnaldo and I agreed it could be applied now, because I have other
    pending patches depending on this one (Thank you Arnaldo)

    (The other important patch moves skc_refcnt in a separate cache line,
    so that the SMP/NUMA performance doesnt suffer from cache line ping pongs)

    1) First some performance data :
    --------------------------------

    tcp_v4_rcv() wastes a *lot* of time in __inet_lookup_established()

    The most time critical code is :

    sk_for_each(sk, node, &head->chain) {
    if (INET_MATCH(sk, acookie, saddr, daddr, ports, dif))
    goto hit; /* You sunk my battleship! */
    }

    The sk_for_each() does use prefetch() hints but only the begining of
    "struct sock" is prefetched.

    As INET_MATCH first comparison uses inet_sk(__sk)->daddr, wich is far
    away from the begining of "struct sock", it has to bring into CPU
    cache cold cache line. Each iteration has to use at least 2 cache
    lines.

    This can be problematic if some chains are very long.

    2) The goal
    -----------

    The idea I had is to change things so that INET_MATCH() may return
    FALSE in 99% of cases only using the data already in the CPU cache,
    using one cache line per iteration.

    3) Description of the patch
    ---------------------------

    Adds a new 'unsigned int skc_hash' field in 'struct sock_common',
    filling a 32 bits hole on 64 bits platform.

    struct sock_common {
    unsigned short skc_family;
    volatile unsigned char skc_state;
    unsigned char skc_reuse;
    int skc_bound_dev_if;
    struct hlist_node skc_node;
    struct hlist_node skc_bind_node;
    atomic_t skc_refcnt;
    + unsigned int skc_hash;
    struct proto *skc_prot;
    };

    Store in this 32 bits field the full hash, not masked by (ehash_size -
    1) Using this full hash as the first comparison done in INET_MATCH
    permits us immediatly skip the element without touching a second cache
    line in case of a miss.

    Suppress the sk_hashent/tw_hashent fields since skc_hash (aliased to
    sk_hash and tw_hash) already contains the slot number if we mask with
    (ehash_size - 1)

    File include/net/inet_hashtables.h

    64 bits platforms :
    #define INET_MATCH(__sk, __hash, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\
    (((__sk)->sk_hash == (__hash))
    ((*((__u64 *)&(inet_sk(__sk)->daddr)))== (__cookie)) && \
    ((*((__u32 *)&(inet_sk(__sk)->dport))) == (__ports)) && \
    (!((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if == (__dif))))

    32bits platforms:
    #define TCP_IPV4_MATCH(__sk, __hash, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\
    (((__sk)->sk_hash == (__hash)) && \
    (inet_sk(__sk)->daddr == (__saddr)) && \
    (inet_sk(__sk)->rcv_saddr == (__daddr)) && \
    (!((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->sk_bound_dev_if == (__dif))))

    - Adds a prefetch(head->chain.first) in
    __inet_lookup_established()/__tcp_v4_check_established() and
    __inet6_lookup_established()/__tcp_v6_check_established() and
    __dccp_v4_check_established() to bring into cache the first element of the
    list, before the {read|write}_lock(&head->lock);
