When initializing a gro_list for a packet, first check the rxhash of the incoming skb against that of the skb's in the list. This should be a very strong inidicator of whether the flow is going to be matched, and potentially allows a lot of other checks to be short circuited. Use skb_hash_raw so that we don't force the hash to be calculated. Tested by running netperf 200 TCP_STREAMs between two machines with GRO, HW rxhash, and 1G. Saw no performance degration, slight reduction of time in dev_gro_receive. Signed-off-by: NTom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently, we don't rename the upper/lower_ifc symlinks in /sys/class/net/*/ , which might result stale/duplicate links/names. Fix this by adding netdev_adjacent_rename_links(dev, oldname) which renames all the upper/lower interface's links to dev from the upper/lower_oldname to the new name. We don't need a rollback because only we control these symlinks and if we fail to rename them - sysfs will anyway complain.

The existing net/netif_rx and net/netif_receive_skb trace events provide little information about the skb, nor do they indicate how it entered the stack. Add trace events at entry of each of the exported functions, including most fields that are likely to be interesting for debugging driver datapath behaviour.

Currently, after changing the MTU for a device, dev_set_mtu() calls NETDEV_CHANGEMTU notification, however doesn't verify it's return code - which can be NOTIFY_BAD - i.e. some of the net notifier blocks refused this change, and continues nevertheless. To fix this, verify the return code, and if it's an error - then revert the MTU to the original one, notify again and pass the error code. CC: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> CC: "David S.

GRO layer has a limit of 8 flows being held in GRO list, for performance reason. When a packet comes for a flow not yet in the list, and list is full, we immediately give it to upper stacks, lowering aggregation performance. With TSO auto sizing and FQ packet scheduler, this situation happens more often. This patch changes strategy to simply evict the oldest flow of the list. This works better because of the nature of packet trains for which GRO is efficient. This also has the effect of lowering the GRO latency if many flows are competing. Tested : Used a 40Gbps NIC, with 4 RX queues, and 200 concurrent TCP_STREAM netperf. Before patch, aggregate rate is 11Gbps (while a single flow can reach 30Gbps) After patch, line rate is reached.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

This patch built on top of Commit 299603e8 ("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation protocols in the GRO stack in the future. The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path, thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly. Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/ ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE. The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE), the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when validating the GRE csum. Note that commit 60769a5d "ipv4: gre: add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible. Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS). In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal. I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning will be needed to decide the best setting. All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs. (super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30) An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1 mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123) is configured. The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off). 1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off thruput: 9.16Gbps CPU utilization: 19% 1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off thruput: 5.9Gbps CPU utilization: 15% 1.3 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro on thruput: 9.26Gbps CPU utilization: 12-13% 1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on thruput: 9.26Gbps CPU utilization: 10% The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of csum offload.

It is useful to be able to walk all upper devices when bringing a device online where the RTNL lock is held. In this case it is safe to walk the all_adj_list because the RTNL lock is used to protect the write side as well. This patch adds a check to see if the rtnl lock is held before throwing a warning in netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu(). Also because we now have a call site for lockdep_rtnl_is_held() outside COFIG_LOCK_PROVING an inline definition returning 1 is needed. Similar to the rcu_read_lock_is_held().

This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header" and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later. With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g., skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows (e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a different hdr length. Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at most one "transport layer" in the encap chain. Signed-off-by: NH.K.

The following commit: b6c40d68 net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting. The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count. This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently down. A later commit: deede2fa vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up, thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN. The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans, then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to the physical devices. A simple examle of the scenario is the following: eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50 If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is currently required for operation as part of the bridge. As a result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface. The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect flag propagation. As a result we can remove the generic solution introduced in b6c40d68 and leave it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block flag propagation or not.

commit 06a23fe3 ("core/dev: set pkt_type after eth_type_trans() in dev_forward_skb()") and refactoring 64261f23 ("dev: move skb_scrub_packet() after eth_type_trans()") are forcing pkt_type to be PACKET_HOST when skb traverses veth. which means that ip forwarding will kick in inside netns even if skb->eth->h_dest != dev->dev_addr Fix order of eth_type_trans() and skb_scrub_packet() in dev_forward_skb() and in ip_tunnel_rcv() Fixes: 06a23fe3 ("core/dev: set pkt_type after eth_type_trans() in dev_forward_skb()") CC: Isaku Yamahata <yamahatanetdev@gmail.com> CC: Maciej Zenczykowski <zenczykowski@gmail.com> CC: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: NAlexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Add a operations structure that allows a network interface to export the fact that it supports package forwarding in hardware between physical interfaces and other mac layer devices assigned to it (such as macvlans). This operaions structure can be used by virtual mac devices to bypass software switching so that forwarding can be done in hardware more efficiently.

Joby Poriyath provided a xen-netback patch to reduce the size of xenvif structure as some netdev allocation could fail under memory pressure/fragmentation. This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing any netdev structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed. As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.

Separate the unreg_list and the close_list in dev_close_many preventing dev_close_many from permuting the unreg_list. The permutations of the unreg_list have resulted in cases where the loopback device is accessed it has been freed in code such as dst_ifdown. Resulting in subtle memory corruption. This is the second bug from sharing the storage between the close_list and the unreg_list. The issues that crop up with sharing are apparently too subtle to show up in normal testing or usage, so let's forget about being clever and use two separate lists. v2: Make all callers pass in a close_list to dev_close_many Signed-off-by: N"Eric W.

When flags IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI are changed, netlink messages are not consistent. For example, if a multicast daemon is running (flag IFF_ALLMULTI set in dev->flags but not dev->gflags, ie not exported to userspace) and then a user sets it via netlink (flag IFF_ALLMULTI set in dev->flags and dev->gflags, ie exported to userspace), no netlink message is sent. Same for IFF_PROMISC and because dev->promiscuity is exported via IFLA_PROMISCUITY, we may send a netlink message after each change of this counter.

There is currently serialization network namespaces exiting and network devices exiting as the final part of netdev_run_todo does not happen under the rtnl_lock. This is compounded by the fact that the only list of devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo is local to the netdev_run_todo. This lack of serialization in extreme cases results in network devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo after the loopback device of their network namespace has been freed (making dst_ifdown unsafe), and after the their network namespace has exited (making the NETDEV_UNREGISTER, and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL callbacks unsafe). Add the missing serialization by a per network namespace count of how many network devices are unregistering and having a wait queue that is woken up whenever the count is decreased. The count and wait queue allow default_device_exit_batch to wait until all of the unregistration activity for a network namespace has finished before proceeding to unregister the loopback device and then allowing the network namespace to exit. Only a single global wait queue is used because there is a single global lock, and there is a single waiter, per network namespace wait queues would be a waste of resources. The per network namespace count of unregistering devices gives a progress guarantee because the number of network devices unregistering in an exiting network namespace must ultimately drop to zero (assuming network device unregistration completes). The basic logic remains the same as in v1. This patch is now half comment and half rtnl_lock_unregistering an expanded version of wait_event performs no extra work in the common case where no network devices are unregistering when we get to default_device_exit_batch.

Also, remove the same functionality from bonding - it will be already done for any device that links to its lower/upper neighbour. The links will be created for dev's kobject, and will look like lower_eth0 for lower device eth0 and upper_bridge0 for upper device bridge0.

Currently, we can have only one master upper neighbour, so it would be useful to create a symlink to it in the sysfs device directory, the way that bonding now does it, for every device. Lower devices from bridge/team/etc will automagically get it, so we could rely on it. Also, remove the same functionality from bonding.

Currently, even though we can access any linked device, we can't attach anything to it, which is vital to properly manage them. To fix this, add a new void *private to netdev_adjacent and functions setting/getting it (per link), so that we can save, per example, bonding's slave structures there, per slave device. netdev_master_upper_dev_link_private(dev, upper_dev, private) links dev to upper dev and populates the neighbour link only with private. netdev_lower_dev_get_private{,_rcu}() returns the private, if found.
