This patch introduces a PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket option, that allows for using a similar xmit() function as in pktgen instead of taking the dev_queue_xmit() path. This can be very useful when PF_PACKET applications are required to be used in a similar scenario as pktgen, but with full, flexible packet payload that needs to be provided, for example. On default, nothing changes in behaviour for normal PF_PACKET TX users, so everything stays as is for applications. New users, however, can now set PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS if needed to prevent own packets from i) reentering packet_rcv() and ii) to directly push the frame to the driver. In doing so we can increase pps (here 64 byte packets) for PF_PACKET a bit: # CPUs -- QDISC_BYPASS -- qdisc path -- qdisc path[**] 1 CPU == 1,509,628 pps -- 1,208,708 -- 1,247,436 2 CPUs == 3,198,659 pps -- 2,536,012 -- 1,605,779 3 CPUs == 4,787,992 pps -- 3,788,740 -- 1,735,610 4 CPUs == 6,173,956 pps -- 4,907,799 -- 1,909,114 5 CPUs == 7,495,676 pps -- 5,956,499 -- 2,014,422 6 CPUs == 9,001,496 pps -- 7,145,064 -- 2,155,261 7 CPUs == 10,229,776 pps -- 8,190,596 -- 2,220,619 8 CPUs == 11,040,732 pps -- 9,188,544 -- 2,241,879 9 CPUs == 12,009,076 pps -- 10,275,936 -- 2,068,447 10 CPUs == 11,380,052 pps -- 11,265,337 -- 1,578,689 11 CPUs == 11,672,676 pps -- 11,845,344 -- 1,297,412 [...] 20 CPUs == 11,363,192 pps -- 11,014,933 -- 1,245,081 [**]: qdisc path with packet_rcv(), how probably most people seem to use it (hopefully not anymore if not needed) The test was done using a modified trafgen, sending a simple static 64 bytes packet, on all CPUs. The trick in the fast "qdisc path" case, is to avoid reentering packet_rcv() by setting the RAW socket protocol to zero, like: socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0); Tradeoffs are documented as well in this patch, clearly, if queues are busy, we will drop more packets, tc disciplines are ignored, and these packets are not visible to taps anymore. For a pktgen like scenario, we argue that this is acceptable. The pointer to the xmit function has been placed in packet socket structure hole between cached_dev and prot_hook that is hot anyway as we're working on cached_dev in each send path.

With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets. Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes) If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push will be delayed up to TX completion time. This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls. The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring. Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of autocorking being triggered. Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control this feature and default it to 1 (enabled) Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used and its flush was deferred. Tested: Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh. Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput. lpq83:~# echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking lpq83:~# perf stat ./super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128 9410.39 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128': 35209.439626 task-clock # 2.901 CPUs utilized 2,294 context-switches # 0.065 K/sec 101 CPU-migrations # 0.003 K/sec 4,079 page-faults # 0.116 K/sec 97,923,241,298 cycles # 2.781 GHz [83.31%] 51,832,908,236 stalled-cycles-frontend # 52.93% frontend cycles idle [83.30%] 25,697,986,603 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.24% backend cycles idle [66.70%] 102,225,978,536 instructions # 1.04 insns per cycle # 0.51 stalled cycles per insn [83.38%] 18,657,696,819 branches # 529.906 M/sec [83.29%] 91,679,646 branch-misses # 0.49% of all branches [83.40%] 12.136204899 seconds time elapsed lpq83:~# echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking lpq83:~# perf stat ./super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128 6624.89 Performance counter stats for './super_netperf 4 -t TCP_STREAM -H lpq84 -- -m 128': 40045.864494 task-clock # 3.301 CPUs utilized 171 context-switches # 0.004 K/sec 53 CPU-migrations # 0.001 K/sec 4,080 page-faults # 0.102 K/sec 111,340,458,645 cycles # 2.780 GHz [83.34%] 61,778,039,277 stalled-cycles-frontend # 55.49% frontend cycles idle [83.31%] 29,295,522,759 stalled-cycles-backend # 26.31% backend cycles idle [66.67%] 108,654,349,355 instructions # 0.98 insns per cycle # 0.57 stalled cycles per insn [83.34%] 19,552,170,748 branches # 488.244 M/sec [83.34%] 157,875,417 branch-misses # 0.81% of all branches [83.34%] 12.130267788 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Make it use the correct API, but since this may already be used as-is by userspace, reserve a family ID for this code and also reserve that group ID to not break userspace assumptions. My previous patch broke event delivery in the driver as I missed that it wasn't using the right API and forgot to update it later in my series. While changing this, I noticed that the genetlink code could use the static group ID instead of a strcmp(), so also do that for the VFS_DQUOT family.

由 Yann Droneaud 提交于
Commit 400dbc96 ("IB/core: Infrastructure for extensible uverbs commands") added an infrastructure for extensible uverbs commands while later commit 436f2ad0 ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow through uverbs") exported ib_create_flow()/ib_destroy_flow() functions using this new infrastructure. According to the commit 400dbc96, the purpose of this infrastructure is to support passing around provider (eg. hardware) specific buffers when userspace issue commands to the kernel, so that it would be possible to extend uverbs (eg. core) buffers independently from the provider buffers. But the new kernel command function prototypes were not modified to take advantage of this extension. This issue was exposed by Roland Dreier in a previous review[1]. So the following patch is an attempt to a revised extensible command infrastructure. This improved extensible command infrastructure distinguish between core (eg. legacy)'s command/response buffers from provider (eg. hardware)'s command/response buffers: each extended command implementing function is given a struct ib_udata to hold core (eg. uverbs) input and output buffers, and another struct ib_udata to hold the hw (eg. provider) input and output buffers. Having those buffers identified separately make it easier to increase one buffer to support extension without having to add some code to guess the exact size of each command/response parts: This should make the extended functions more reliable. Additionally, instead of relying on command identifier being greater than IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_THRESHOLD, the proposed infrastructure rely on unused bits in command field: on the 32 bits provided by command field, only 6 bits are really needed to encode the identifier of commands currently supported by the kernel. (Even using only 6 bits leaves room for about 23 new commands). So this patch makes use of some high order bits in command field to store flags, leaving enough room for more command identifiers than one will ever need (eg. 256). The new flags are used to specify if the command should be processed as an extended one or a legacy one. While designing the new command format, care was taken to make usage of flags itself extensible. Using high order bits of the commands field ensure that newer libibverbs on older kernel will properly fail when trying to call extended commands. On the other hand, older libibverbs on newer kernel will never be able to issue calls to extended commands. The extended command header includes the optional response pointer so that output buffer length and output buffer pointer are located together in the command, allowing proper parameters checking. This should make implementing functions easier and safer. Additionally the extended header ensure 64bits alignment, while making all sizes multiple of 8 bytes, extending the maximum buffer size: legacy extended Maximum command buffer: 256KBytes 1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes) Maximum response buffer: 256KBytes 1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes) For the purpose of doing proper buffer size accounting, the headers size are no more taken in account in "in_words". One of the odds of the current extensible infrastructure, reading twice the "legacy" command header, is fixed by removing the "legacy" command header from the extended command header: they are processed as two different parts of the command: memory is read once and information are not duplicated: it's making clear that's an extended command scheme and not a different command scheme. The proposed scheme will format input (command) and output (response) buffers this way: - command: legacy header + extended header + command data (core + hw): +----------------------------------------+ | flags | 00 00 | command | | in_words | out_words | +----------------------------------------+ | response | | response | | provider_in_words | provider_out_words | | padding | +----------------------------------------+ | | . <uverbs input> . . (in_words * 8) . | | +----------------------------------------+ | | . <provider input> . . (provider_in_words * 8) . | | +----------------------------------------+ - response, if present: +----------------------------------------+ | | . <uverbs output space> . . (out_words * 8) . | | +----------------------------------------+ | | . <provider output space> . . (provider_out_words * 8) . | | +----------------------------------------+ The overall design is to ensure that the extensible infrastructure is itself extensible while begin more reliable with more input and bound checking. Note: The unused field in the extended header would be perfect candidate to hold the command "comp_mask" (eg. bit field used to handle compatibility). This was suggested by Roland Dreier in a previous review[2]. But "comp_mask" field is likely to be present in the uverb input and/or provider input, likewise for the response, as noted by Matan Barak[3], so it doesn't make sense to put "comp_mask" in the header.

For performance reasons, sch_fq tried hard to not setup timers for every sent packet, using a quantum based heuristic : A delay is setup only if the flow exhausted its credit. Problem is that application limited flows can refill their credit for every queued packet, and they can evade pacing. This problem can also be triggered when TCP flows use small MSS values, as TSO auto sizing builds packets that are smaller than the default fq quantum (3028 bytes) This patch adds a 40 ms delay to guard flow credit refill.

Then it addes a bunch of tests to make sure find_lock_delalloc_range is acting the way it is supposed to.

struct rnd_state got mistakenly pulled into uapi header. It is not used anywhere and does also not belong there! Commit 5960164f ("lib/random32: export pseudo-random number generator for modules"), the last commit on rnd_state before it got moved to uapi, says: This patch moves the definition of struct rnd_state and the inline __seed() function to linux/random.h. It renames the static __random32() function to prandom32() and exports it for use in modules. Hence, the structure was moved from lib/random32.c to linux/random.h so that it can be used within modules (FCoE-related code in this case), but not from user space. However, it seems to have been mistakenly moved to uapi header through the uapi script. Since no-one should make use of it from the linux headers, move the structure back to the kernel for internal use, so that it can be modified on demand. Joint work with Hannes Frederic Sowa.

Now, the on disk data structures are in a header that can be exported to userspace - and having them all centralized is nice too. Signed-off-by: NKent Overstreet <kmo@daterainc.com>

This patch allows the removal of an open device to be deferred until it is closed. (Previously such a removal attempt would fail.) The deferred remove functionality is enabled by setting the flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE in the ioctl structure on DM_DEV_REMOVE or DM_REMOVE_ALL ioctl. On return from DM_DEV_REMOVE, the flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE indicates if the device was removed immediately or flagged to be removed on close - if the flag is clear, the device was removed. On return from DM_DEV_STATUS and other ioctls, the flag DM_DEFERRED_REMOVE is set if the device is scheduled to be removed on closure. A device that is scheduled to be deleted can be revived using the message "@cancel_deferred_remove". This message clears the DMF_DEFERRED_REMOVE flag so that the device won't be deleted on close.

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.

When installing, "scripts/headers_install.sh" will strip guard macro' "_UAPI" to prevent from appearing it to users. And also, all another files which need uapi prefix always use "_UAPI", not "UAPI". So use "_UAPI" instead of "UAPI" on the guard macro, and also give a comment for "#endif".

Sockets marked with IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE won't do path mtu discovery, their sockets won't accept and install new path mtu information and they will always use the interface mtu for outgoing packets. It is guaranteed that the packet is not fragmented locally. But we won't set the DF-Flag on the outgoing frames. Florian Weimer had the idea to use this flag to ensure DNS servers are never generating outgoing fragments. They may well be fragmented on the path, but the server never stores or usees path mtu values, which could well be forged in an attack. (The root of the problem with path MTU discovery is that there is no reliable way to authenticate ICMP Fragmentation Needed But DF Set messages because they are sent from intermediate routers with their source addresses, and the IMCP payload will not always contain sufficient information to identify a flow.) Recent research in the DNS community showed that it is possible to implement an attack where DNS cache poisoning is feasible by spoofing fragments. This work was done by Amir Herzberg and Haya Shulman: <https://sites.google.com/site/hayashulman/files/fragmentation-poisoning.pdf> This issue was previously discussed among the DNS community, e.g. <http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/dnsext/current/msg01204.html>, without leading to fixes. This patch depends on the patch "ipv4: fix DO and PROBE pmtu mode regarding local fragmentation with UFO/CORK" for the enforcement of the non-fragmentable checks. If other users than ip_append_page/data should use this semantic too, we have to add a new flag to IPCB(skb)->flags to suppress local fragmentation and check for this in ip_finish_output. Many thanks to Florian Weimer for the idea and feedback while implementing this patch. Cc: David S.

This is a new audit feature which only grants processes with CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL the ability to unset their loginuid. They cannot directly set it from a valid uid to another valid uid. The ability to unset the loginuid is nice because a priviledged task, like that of container creation, can unset the loginuid and then priv is not needed inside the container when a login daemon needs to set the loginuid.
