Commit 642e450b6b59 ("xsk: Do not discard packet when NETDEV_TX_BUSY")
addressed the problem that packets were discarded from the Tx AF_XDP
ring, when the driver returned NETDEV_TX_BUSY. Part of the fix was
bumping the skbuff reference count, so that the buffer would not be
freed by dev_direct_xmit(). A reference count larger than one means
that the skbuff is "shared", which is not the case.If the "shared" skbuff is sent to the generic XDP receive path,
netif_receive_generic_xdp(), and pskb_expand_head() is entered the
BUG_ON(skb_shared(skb)) will trigger.This patch adds a variant to dev_direct_xmit(), __dev_direct_xmit(),
where a user can select the skbuff free policy. This allows AF_XDP to
avoid bumping the reference count, but still keep the NETDEV_TX_BUSY
behavior.Fixes: 642e450b6b59 ("xsk: Do not discard packet when NETDEV_TX_BUSY")

In the patchset merged by commit b9fcf0a0d826
("Merge branch 'support-AF_PACKET-for-layer-3-devices'") L3 devices which
did not have header_ops were given one for the purpose of protocol parsing
on af_packet transmit path.That change made af_packet receive path regard these devices as having a
visible L3 header and therefore aligned incoming skb->data to point to the
skb's mac_header. Some devices, such as ipip, xfrmi, and others, do not
reset their mac_header prior to ingress and therefore their incoming
packets became malformed.Ideally these devices would reset their mac headers, or af_packet would be
able to rely on dev->hard_header_len being 0 for such cases, but it seems
this is not the case.Fix by changing af_packet RX ll visibility criteria to include the
existence of a '.create()' header operation, which is used when creating
a device hard header - via dev_hard_header() - by upper layers, and does
not exist in these L3 devices.As this predicate may be useful in other situations, add it as a common
dev_has_header() helper in netdevice.h.Fixes: b9fcf0a0d826 ("Merge branch 'support-AF_PACKET-for-layer-3-devices'")

Add an efficient ingress to ingress netns switch that can be used out of tc BPF
programs in order to redirect traffic from host ns ingress into a container
veth device ingress without having to go via CPU backlog queue [0]. For local
containers this can also be utilized and path via CPU backlog queue only needs
to be taken once, not twice. On a high level this borrows from ipvlan which does
similar switch in __netif_receive_skb_core() and then iterates via another_round.
This helps to reduce latency for mentioned use cases.Pod to remote pod with redirect(), TCP_RR [1]:

Quite some drivers make conditional decisions based on in_interrupt() to
invoke either netif_rx() or netif_rx_ni().Conditionals based on in_interrupt() or other variants of preempt count
checks in drivers should not exist for various reasons and Linus clearly
requested to either split the code pathes or pass an argument to the
common functions which provides the context.This is obviously the correct solution, but for some of the affected
drivers this needs a major rewrite due to their convoluted structure.As in_interrupt() usage in drivers needs to be phased out, provide
netif_rx_any_context() as a stop gap for these drivers.This confines the in_interrupt() conditional to core code which in turn
allows to remove the access to this check for driver code and provides one
central place to do further modifications once the driver maze is cleaned
up.Suggested-by: Thomas Gleixner

This patch is to add a new variable 'nested_level' into the net_device
structure.
This variable will be used as a parameter of spin_lock_nested() of
dev->addr_list_lock.netif_addr_lock() can be called recursively so spin_lock_nested() is
used instead of spin_lock() and dev->lower_level is used as a parameter
of spin_lock_nested().
But, dev->lower_level value can be updated while it is being used.
So, lockdep would warn a possible deadlock scenario.When a stacked interface is deleted, netif_{uc | mc}_sync() is
called recursively.
So, spin_lock_nested() is called recursively too.
At this moment, the dev->lower_level variable is used as a parameter of it.
dev->lower_level value is updated when interfaces are being unlinked/linked
immediately.
Thus, After unlinking, dev->lower_level shouldn't be a parameter of
spin_lock_nested().A (macvlan)
|
B (vlan)
|
C (bridge)
|
D (macvlan)
|
E (vlan)
|
F (bridge)A->lower_level : 6
B->lower_level : 5
C->lower_level : 4
D->lower_level : 3
E->lower_level : 2
F->lower_level : 1When an interface 'A' is removed, it releases resources.
At this moment, netif_addr_lock() would be called.
Then, netdev_upper_dev_unlink() is called recursively.
Then dev->lower_level is updated.
There is no problem.But, when the bridge module is removed, 'C' and 'F' interfaces
are removed at once.
If 'F' is removed first, a lower_level value is like below.
A->lower_level : 5
B->lower_level : 4
C->lower_level : 3
D->lower_level : 2
E->lower_level : 1
F->lower_level : 1Then, 'C' is removed. at this moment, netif_addr_lock() is called
recursively.
The ordering is like this.
C(3)->D(2)->E(1)->F(1)
At this moment, the lower_level value of 'E' and 'F' are the same.
So, lockdep warns a possible deadlock scenario.In order to avoid this problem, a new variable 'nested_level' is added.
This value is the same as dev->lower_level - 1.
But this value is updated in rtnl_unlock().
So, this variable can be used as a parameter of spin_lock_nested() safely
in the rtnl context.Test commands:

ip link add vlan1 link br0 type vlan id 10

Earlier commit 316cdaa1158a ("net: add option to not create fall-back
tunnels in root-ns as well") removed the CONFIG_SYSCTL to enable the
kernel-commandline to work. However, this variable gets defined only
when CONFIG_SYSCTL option is selected.With this change the behavior would default to creating fall-back
tunnels in all namespaces when CONFIG_SYSCTL is not selected and
the kernel commandline option will be ignored.Fixes: 316cdaa1158a ("net: add option to not create fall-back tunnels in root-ns as well")

To RCUify napi->dev_list we need to replace list_del_init()
with list_del_rcu(). There is no _init() version for RCU for
obvious reasons. Up until now netif_napi_del() was idempotent
so to make sure it remains such add a bit which is set when
NAPI is listed, and cleared when it removed. Since we don't
expect multiple calls to netif_napi_add() to be correct,
add a warning on that side.Now that napi_hash_add / napi_hash_del are only called by
napi_add / del we can actually steal its bit. We just need
to make sure hash node is initialized correctly.Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller -
We allow drivers to call napi_hash_del() before calling
netif_napi_del() to batch RCU grace periods. This makes
the API asymmetric and leaks internal implementation details.
Soon we will want the grace period to protect more than just
the NAPI hash table.Restructure the API and have drivers call a new function -
__netif_napi_del() if they want to take care of RCU waits.Note that only core was checking the return status from
napi_hash_del() so the new helper does not report if the
NAPI was actually deleted.Some notes on driver oddness:
- veth observed the grace period before calling netif_napi_del()
but that should not matter
- myri10ge observed normal RCU flavor
- bnx2x and enic did not actually observe the grace period
(unless they did so implicitly)
- virtio_net and enic only unhashed Rx NAPIsThe last two points seem to indicate that the calls to
napi_hash_del() were a left over rather than an optimization.
Regardless, it's easy enough to correct them.This patch may introduce extra synchronize_net() calls for
interfaces which set NAPI_STATE_NO_BUSY_POLL and depend on
free_netdev() to call netif_napi_del(). This seems inevitable
since we want to use RCU for netpoll dev->napi_list traversal,
and almost no drivers set IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL.Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2020-09-01The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
There are two small conflicts when pulling, resolve as follows:
1) Merge conflict in tools/lib/bpf/libbpf.c between 88a82120282b ("libbpf: Factor
out common ELF operations and improve logging") in bpf-next and 1e891e513e16
("libbpf: Fix map index used in error message") in net-next. Resolve by taking
the hunk in bpf-next:[...]
scn = elf_sec_by_idx(obj, obj->efile.btf_maps_shndx);
data = elf_sec_data(obj, scn);
if (!scn || !data) {
pr_warn("elf: failed to get %s map definitions for %s\n",
MAPS_ELF_SEC, obj->path);
return -EINVAL;
}
[...]2) Merge conflict in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xsk/rx.c between
9647c57b11e5 ("xsk: i40e: ice: ixgbe: mlx5: Test for dma_need_sync earlier for
better performance") in bpf-next and e20f0dbf204f ("net/mlx5e: RX, Add a prefetch
command for small L1_CACHE_BYTES") in net-next. Resolve the two locations by retaining
net_prefetch() and taking xsk_buff_dma_sync_for_cpu() from bpf-next. Should look like:[...]
xdp_set_data_meta_invalid(xdp);
xsk_buff_dma_sync_for_cpu(xdp, rq->xsk_pool);
net_prefetch(xdp->data);

Replace the explicit umem reference passed to the driver in AF_XDP
zero-copy mode with the buffer pool instead. This in preparation for
extending the functionality of the zero-copy mode so that umems can be
shared between queues on the same netdev and also between netdevs. In
this commit, only an umem reference has been added to the buffer pool
struct. But later commits will add other entities to it. These are
going to be entities that are different between different queue ids
and netdevs even though the umem is shared between them.Signed-off-by: Magnus Karlsson

The sysctl that was added earlier by commit 79134e6ce2c ("net: do
not create fallback tunnels for non-default namespaces") to create
fall-back only in root-ns. This patch enhances that behavior to provide
option not to create fallback tunnels in root-ns as well. Since modules
that create fallback tunnels could be built-in and setting the sysctl
value after booting is pointless, so added a kernel cmdline options to
change this default. The default setting is preseved for backward
compatibility. The kernel command line option of fb_tunnels=initns will
set the sysctl value to 1 and will create fallback tunnels only in initns
while kernel cmdline fb_tunnels=none will set the sysctl value to 2 and
fallback tunnels are skipped in every netns.Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar

Currently, processes sending traffic to a local bridge with an
encapsulation device as a port don't get ICMP errors if they exceed
the PMTU of the encapsulated link.David Ahern suggested this as a hack, but it actually looks like
the correct solution: when we update the PMTU for a given destination
by means of updating or creating a route exception, the encapsulation
might trigger this because of PMTU discovery happening either on the
encapsulation device itself, or its lower layer. This happens on
bridged encapsulations only.The output interface shouldn't matter, because we already have a
valid destination. Drop the output interface restriction from the
associated route lookup.For UDP tunnels, we will now have a route exception created for the
encapsulation itself, with a MTU value reflecting its headroom, which
allows a bridge forwarding IP packets originated locally to deliver
errors back to the sending socket.The behaviour is now consistent with IPv6 and verified with selftests
pmtu_ipv{4,6}_br_{geneve,vxlan}{4,6}_exception introduced later in
this series.v2:
- reset output interface only for bridge ports (David Ahern)

netdev protodown is a mechanism that allows protocols to
hold an interface down. It was initially introduced in
the kernel to hold links down by a multihoming protocol.
There was also an attempt to introduce protodown
reason at the time but was rejected. protodown and protodown reason
is supported by almost every switching and routing platform.
It was ok for a while to live without a protodown reason.
But, its become more critical now given more than
one protocol may need to keep a link down on a system
at the same time. eg: vrrp peer node, port security,
multihoming protocol. Its common for Network operators and
protocol developers to look for such a reason on a networking
box (Its also known as errDisable by most networking operators)This patch adds support for link protodown reason
attribute. There are two ways to maintain protodown
reasons.
(a) enumerate every possible reason code in kernel
- A protocol developer has to make a request and
have that appear in a certain kernel version
(b) provide the bits in the kernel, and allow user-space
(sysadmin or NOS distributions) to manage the bit-to-reasonname
map.
- This makes extending reason codes easier (kind of like
the iproute2 table to vrf-name map /etc/iproute2/rt_tables.d/)This patch takes approach (b).
a few things about the patch:
- It treats the protodown reason bits as counter to indicate
active protodown users
- Since protodown attribute is already an exposed UAPI,
the reason is not enforced on a protodown set. Its a no-op
if not used.
the patch follows the below algorithm:
- presence of reason bits set indicates protodown
is in use
- user can set protodown and protodown reason in a
single or multiple setlink operations
- setlink operation to clear protodown, will return -EBUSY
if there are active protodown reason bits
- reason is not included in link dumps if not usedexample with patched iproute2:

Now that BPF program/link management is centralized in generic net_device
code, kernel code never queries program id from drivers, so
XDP_QUERY_PROG/XDP_QUERY_PROG_HW commands are unnecessary.This patch removes all the implementations of those commands in kernel, along
the xdp_attachment_query().This patch was compile-tested on allyesconfig.

Add bpf_link-based API (bpf_xdp_link) to attach BPF XDP program through
BPF_LINK_CREATE command.bpf_xdp_link is mutually exclusive with direct BPF program attachment,
previous BPF program should be detached prior to attempting to create a new
bpf_xdp_link attachment (for a given XDP mode). Once BPF link is attached, it
can't be replaced by other BPF program attachment or link attachment. It will
be detached only when the last BPF link FD is closed.bpf_xdp_link will be auto-detached when net_device is shutdown, similarly to
how other BPF links behave (cgroup, flow_dissector). At that point bpf_link
will become defunct, but won't be destroyed until last FD is closed.Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko

Instead of delegating to drivers, maintain information about which BPF
programs are attached in which XDP modes (generic/skb, driver, or hardware)
locally in net_device. This effectively obsoletes XDP_QUERY_PROG command.Such re-organization simplifies existing code already. But it also allows to
further add bpf_link-based XDP attachments without drivers having to know
about any of this at all, which seems like a good setup.
XDP_SETUP_PROG/XDP_SETUP_PROG_HW are just low-level commands to driver to
install/uninstall active BPF program. All the higher-level concerns about
prog/link interaction will be contained within generic driver-agnostic logic.All the XDP_QUERY_PROG calls to driver in dev_xdp_uninstall() were removed.
It's not clear for me why dev_xdp_uninstall() were passing previous prog_flags
when resetting installed programs. That seems unnecessary, plus most drivers
don't populate prog_flags anyways. Having XDP_SETUP_PROG vs XDP_SETUP_PROG_HW
should be enough of an indicator of what is required of driver to correctly
reset active BPF program. dev_xdp_uninstall() is also generalized as an
iteration over all three supported mode.Signed-off-by: Andrii Nakryiko

Cater to devices which:
(a) may want to sleep in the callbacks;
(b) only have IPv4 support;
(c) need all the programming to happen while the netdev is up.Drivers attach UDP tunnel offload info struct to their netdevs,
where they declare how many UDP ports of various tunnel types
they support. Core takes care of tracking which ports to offload.Use a fixed-size array since this matches what almost all drivers
do, and avoids a complexity and uncertainty around memory allocations
in an atomic context.Make sure that tunnel drivers don't try to replay the ports when
new NIC netdev is registered. Automatic replays would mess up
reference counting, and will be removed completely once all drivers
are converted.v4:

In the current code, ->ndo_start_xmit() can be executed recursively only
10 times because of stack memory.
But, in the case of the vxlan, 10 recursion limit value results in
a stack overflow.
In the current code, the nested interface is limited by 8 depth.
There is no critical reason that the recursion limitation value should
be 10.
So, it would be good to be the same value with the limitation value of
nesting interface depth.Test commands:
ip link add vxlan10 type vxlan vni 10 dstport 4789 srcport 4789 4789
ip link set vxlan10 up
ip a a 192.168.10.1/24 dev vxlan10

for example the following race condition still exists:CPU 0: CPU 1:
(RCU read lock) (RTNL lock)
dev_mc_seq_show() netdev_update_lockdep_key()
-> lockdep_unregister_key()
-> netif_addr_lock_bh()because lockdep doesn't provide an API to update it atomically.
Therefore, we have to move it back to static keys and use subclass
for nest locking like before.In commit 1a33e10e4a95 ("net: partially revert dynamic lockdep key
changes"), I already reverted most parts of commit ab92d68fc22f
("net: core: add generic lockdep keys").This patch reverts the rest and also part of commit f3b0a18bb6cb
("net: remove unnecessary variables and callback"). After this
patch, addr_list_lock changes back to using static keys and
subclasses to satisfy lockdep. Thanks to dev->lower_level, we do
not have to change back to ->ndo_get_lock_subclass().And hopefully this reduces some syzbot lockdep noises too.

Instead of enabling dynamic debug globally with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG,
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CORE will only enable core function of dynamic
debug. With the DYNAMIC_DEBUG_MODULE defined for any modules, dynamic
debug will be tied to them.This is useful for people who only want to enable dynamic debug for
kernel modules without worrying about kernel image size and memory
consumption is increasing too much.[orson.zhai@unisoc.com: v2]

Provide devm_register_netdev() - a device resource managed variant
of register_netdev(). This new helper will only work for net_device
structs that are also already managed by devres.Signed-off-by: Bartosz Golaszewski

This method is used to properly allow kernel callers of the IPv4 route
management ioctls. The exsting ip_tunnel_ioctl helper is renamed to
ip_tunnel_ctl to better reflect that it doesn't directly implement ioctls
touching user memory, and is used for the guts of ndo_tunnel_ctl
implementations. A new ip_tunnel_ioctl helper is added that can be wired
up directly to the ndo_do_ioctl method and takes care of the copy to and
from userspace.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
