Previously, there was no clear distinction between the inet protocols
that used struct tcp_info to report information and those that didn't.
This change adds a specific size attribute to the inet_diag_handler
struct which defines these interfaces. This will make dispatching
sock_diag get_info requests identical for all inet protocols in a
following patch.Tested: ss -au

[ 3897.923145] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
0000000000000080
[ 3897.931025] IP: [] reqsk_timer_handler+0x1a6/0x243There is a race when reqsk_timer_handler() and tcp_check_req() call
inet_csk_reqsk_queue_unlink() on the same req at the same time.Before commit fa76ce7328b2 ("inet: get rid of central tcp/dccp listener
timer"), listener spinlock was held and race could not happen.To solve this bug, we change reqsk_queue_unlink() to not assume req
must be found, and we return a status, to conditionally release a
refcount on the request sock.This also means tcp_check_req() in non fastopen case might or not
consume req refcount, so tcp_v6_hnd_req() & tcp_v4_hnd_req() have
to properly handle this.(Same remark for dccp_check_req() and its callers)
inet_csk_reqsk_queue_drop() is now too big to be inlined, as it is
called 4 times in tcp and 3 times in dccp.Fixes: fa76ce7328b2 ("inet: get rid of central tcp/dccp listener timer")

Using a timer wheel for timewait sockets was nice ~15 years ago when
memory was expensive and machines had a single processor.This does not scale, code is ugly and source of huge latencies
(Typically 30 ms have been seen, cpus spinning on death_lock spinlock.)We can afford to use an extra 64 bytes per timewait sock and spread
timewait load to all cpus to have better behavior.Tested:
On following test, /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_recycle is set to 1
on the target (lpaa24)Before patch :
lpaa23:~# ./super_netperf 200 -H lpaa24 -t TCP_CC -l 60 -- -p0,0
419594lpaa23:~# ./super_netperf 200 -H lpaa24 -t TCP_CC -l 60 -- -p0,0

One of the major issue for TCP is the SYNACK rtx handling,
done by inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune(), fired by the keepalive
timer of a TCP_LISTEN socket.This function runs for awful long times, with socket lock held,
meaning that other cpus needing this lock have to spin for hundred of ms.SYNACK are sent in huge bursts, likely to cause severe drops anyway.
This model was OK 15 years ago when memory was very tight.
We now can afford to have a timer per request sock.
Timer invocations no longer need to lock the listener,
and can be run from all cpus in parallel.With following patch increasing somaxconn width to 32 bits,
I tested a listener with more than 4 million active request sockets,
and a steady SYNFLOOD of ~200,000 SYN per second.
Host was sending ~830,000 SYNACK per second.This is ~100 times more what we could achieve before this patch.
Later, we will get rid of the listener hash and use ehash instead.

Once request socks will be in ehash table, they will need to have

for IPv4 as well.This means inet_diag_fill_req() can now properly use ir_iif,

Reported-by: kbuild test robot
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller -
A long standing problem in netlink socket dumps is the use
of kernel socket addresses as cookies.1) It is a security concern.
2) Sockets can be reused quite quickly, so there is
no guarantee a cookie is used once and identify
a flow.3) request sock, establish sock, and timewait socks
for a given flow have different cookies.Part of our effort to bring better TCP statistics requires
to switch to a different allocator.In this patch, I chose to use a per network namespace 64bit generator,
and to use it only in the case a socket needs to be dumped to netlink.
(This might be refined later if needed)Note that I tried to carry cookies from request sock, to establish sock,
then timewait sockets.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on percpu front. Notable changes are...- percpu allocator now can take @gfp. If @gfp doesn't contain
GFP_KERNEL, it tries to allocate from what's already available to
the allocator and a work item tries to keep the reserve around
certain level so that these atomic allocations usually succeed.This will replace the ad-hoc percpu memory pool used by
blk-throttle and also be used by the planned blkcg support for
writeback IOs.Please note that I noticed a bug in how @gfp is interpreted while
preparing this pull request and applied the fix 6ae833c7fe0c
("percpu: fix how @gfp is interpreted by the percpu allocator")
just now.- percpu_ref now uses longs for percpu and global counters instead of
ints. It leads to more sparse packing of the percpu counters on
64bit machines but the overhead should be negligible and this
allows using percpu_ref for refcnting pages and in-memory objects
directly.- The switching between percpu and single counter modes of a
percpu_ref is made independent of putting the base ref and a
percpu_ref can now optionally be initialized in single or killed
mode. This allows avoiding percpu shutdown latency for cases where
the refcounted objects may be synchronously created and destroyed
in rapid succession with only a fraction of them reaching fully
operational status (SCSI probing does this when combined with
blk-mq support). It's also planned to be used to implement forced
single mode to detect underflow more timely for debugging.There's a separate branch percpu/for-3.18-consistent-ops which cleans
up the duplicate percpu accessors. That branch causes a number of
conflicts with s390 and other trees. I'll send a separate pull

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_netAdding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper

driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().

ipv6_opt_accepted() assumes IP6CB(skb) holds the struct inet6_skb_parm
that it needs. Lets not assume this, as TCP stack might use a different
place.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

Per commit "77873803363c net_dma: mark broken" net_dma is no longer used
and there is no plan to fix it.This is the mechanical removal of bits in CONFIG_NET_DMA ifdef guards.
Reverting the remainder of the net_dma induced changes is deferred to
subsequent patches.Marked for stable due to Roman's report of a memory leak in
dma_pin_iovec_pages():https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/3/177

Percpu allocator now supports allocation mask. Add @gfp to
percpu_counter_init() so that !GFP_KERNEL allocation masks can be used
with percpu_counters too.We could have left percpu_counter_init() alone and added
percpu_counter_init_gfp(); however, the number of users isn't that
high and introducing _gfp variants to all percpu data structures would
be quite ugly, so let's just do the conversion. This is the one with
the most users. Other percpu data structures are a lot easier to
convert.This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

When an UDP application switches from AF_INET to AF_INET6 sockets, we
have a small performance degradation for IPv4 communications because of
extra cache line misses to access ipv6only information.This can also be noticed for TCP listeners, as ipv6_only_sock() is also
used from __inet_lookup_listener()->compute_score()This is magnified when SO_REUSEPORT is used.
Move ipv6only into struct sock_common so that it is available at
no extra cost in lookups.Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet

Since pktops is only used for IPv6 only and opts is used for IPv4
only, we can move these fields into a union and this allows us to drop
the inet6_reqsk_alloc function as after this change it becomes
equivalent with inet_reqsk_alloc.This patch also fixes a kmemcheck issue in the IPv6 stack: the flags
field was not annotated after a request_sock was allocated.Signed-off-by: Octavian Purdila
