  • c1b52739e   pkt_sched: namespace aware act_mirred ... Browse Code »

    Eric Dumazet pointed out that act_mirred needs to find the current net_ns,
    and struct net pointer is not provided in the call chain. His original
    patch made use of current->nsproxy->net_ns to find the network namespace,
    but this fails to work correctly for userspace code that makes use of
    netlink sockets in different network namespaces. Instead, pass the
    "struct net *" down along the call chain to where it is needed.

    This version removes the ifb changes as Eric has submitted that patch
    separately, but is otherwise identical to the previous version.

  • 16c0b164b   act_mirred: do not drop packets when fails to mirror it ... Browse Code »

    We drop packet unconditionally when we fail to mirror it. This is not intended
    in some cases. Consdier for kvm guest, we may mirror the traffic of the bridge
    to a tap device used by a VM. When kernel fails to mirror the packet in
    conditions such as when qemu crashes or stop polling the tap, it's hard for the
    management software to detect such condition and clean the the mirroring
    before. This would lead all packets to the bridge to be dropped and break the
    netowrk of other virtual machines.

    To solve the issue, the patch does not drop packets when kernel fails to mirror
    it, and only drop the redirected packets.

  • bfe0d0298   net_sched: factorize qdisc stats handling ... Browse Code »

    HTB takes into account skb is segmented in stats updates.
    Generalize this to all schedulers.

    They should use qdisc_bstats_update() helper instead of manipulating
    bstats.bytes and bstats.packets

    Add bstats_update() helper too for classes that use
    gnet_stats_basic_packed fields.

    Note : Right now, TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS shortcurt can be taken only if no
    stab is setup on qdisc.

  • 3b87956ea   net sched: fix race in mirred device removal ... Browse Code »

    This fixes hang when target device of mirred packet classifier
    action is removed.

    If a mirror or redirection action is configured to cause packets
    to go to another device, the classifier holds a ref count, but was assuming
    the adminstrator cleaned up all redirections before removing. The fix
    is to add a notifier and cleanup during unregister.

    The new list is implicitly protected by RTNL mutex because
    it is held during filter add/delete as well as notifier.

    don't clone skb when skb isn't shared

    When the tcf_action is TC_ACT_STOLEN, and the skb isn't shared, we don't need
    to clone a new skb. As the skb will be freed after this function returns, we
    can use it freely once we get a reference to it.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
    on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
    layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
    64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
    :-)

    Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
    mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
    meaningful as offsets or pointers.
