__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is already held. The mechanism is used to asynchronously call __netpoll_cleanup outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock. Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the rtnl_lock must be held while calling it. Further, it cannot be held, because rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep. Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while calling __netpoll_cleanup Tested successfully by myself.

One example of this being hardware that has embedded bridging components. In order to use these nlmsg types more generically this patch adds two net_device_ops hooks. One to set link bridge attributes and another to dump the current bride attributes. ndo_bridge_setlink() ndo_bridge_getlink() CC: Lennert Buytenhek <buytenh@wantstofly.org> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

In SR-IOV mode the PF driver acts as the uplink port and is used to send control packets e.g. lldpad, stp, etc. eth0.1 eth0.2 eth0 VF VF PF | | | <-- stand-in for uplink | | | -------------------------- | Embedded Switch | -------------------------- | MAC <-- uplink But the embedded switch is setup to forward multicast addresses to all interfaces both VFs and PF and onto the physical link. This results in reserved MAC addresses used by control protocols to be forwarded over the switch onto the VF. In the LLDP case the PF sends an LLDPDU and it is currently being forwarded to all the VFs who then see the PF as a peer. This is incorrect. This patch adds the multicast addresses to the RAR table in the hardware to prevent this behavior.

This adds two new flags NTF_MASTER and NTF_SELF that can now be used to specify where PF_BRIDGE netlink commands should be sent. NTF_MASTER sends the commands to the 'dev->master' device for parsing. Typically this will be the linux net/bridge, or open-vswitch devices. Also without any flags set the command will be handled by the master device as well so that current user space tools continue to work as expected. The NTF_SELF flag will push the PF_BRIDGE commands to the device. In the basic example below the commands are then parsed and programmed in the embedded bridge. Note if both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER bits are set then the command will be sent to both 'dev->master' and 'dev' this allows user space to easily keep the embedded bridge and software bridge in sync. There is a slight complication in the case with both flags set when an error occurs. To resolve this the rtnl handler clears the NTF_ flag in the netlink ack to indicate which sets completed successfully. The add/del handlers will abort as soon as any error occurs. To support this new net device ops were added to call into the device and the existing bridging code was refactored to use these. There should be no required changes in user space to support the current bridge behavior. A basic setup with a SR-IOV enabled NIC looks like this, veth0 veth2 | | ------------ | bridge0 | <---- software bridging ------------ / / ethx.y ethx VF PF \ \ <---- propagate FDB entries to HW \ \ -------------------- | Embedded Bridge | <---- hardware offloaded switching -------------------- In this case the embedded bridge must be managed to allow 'veth0' to communicate with 'ethx.y' correctly. At present drivers managing the embedded bridge either send frames onto the network which then get dropped by the switch OR the embedded bridge will flood these frames. With this patch we have a mechanism to manage the embedded bridge correctly from user space. This example is specific to SR-IOV but replacing the VF with another PF or dropping this into the DSA framework generates similar management issues. Examples session using the 'br'[1] tool to add, dump and then delete a mac address with a new "embedded" option and enabled ixgbe driver: # br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 dev eth3 # br fdb port mac addr flags veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:58 static veth0 9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec local eth3 00:1b:21:55:23:59 local eth3 22:35:19:ac:60:59 static veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:57 static #br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3 #br fdb port mac addr flags veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:58 static veth0 9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec local eth3 00:1b:21:55:23:59 local eth3 22:35:19:ac:60:59 static veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:57 static eth3 22:35:19:ac:60:59 local embedded #br fdb del 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3 I added a couple lines to 'br' to set the flags correctly is all. It is my opinion that the merit of this patch is now embedded and SW bridges can both be modeled correctly in user space using very nearly the same message passing.

This is based on an earlier patch by Nick Carter with comments by David Lamparter but with some refinements. Thanks for their patience this is a confusing area with overlap of standards, user requirements, and compatibility with earlier releases. It adds a new sysfs attribute /sys/class/net/brX/bridge/group_fwd_mask that controls forwarding of frames with address of: 01-80-C2-00-00-0X The default setting has no forwarding to retain compatibility. One change from earlier releases is that forwarding of group addresses is not dependent on STP being enabled or disabled. This choice was made based on interpretation of tie 802.1 standards. I expect complaints will arise because of this, but better to follow the standard than continue acting incorrectly by default. The filtering mask is writeable, but only values that don't forward known control frames are allowed. It intentionally blocks attempts to filter control protocols. For example: writing a 8 allows forwarding 802.1X PAE addresses which is the most common request.

Add netlink device ops to allow creating bridge device via netlink. This works in a manner similar to vlan, macvlan and bonding. Example: # ip link add link dev br0 type bridge # ip link del dev br0 The change required rearranging initializtion code to deal with being called by create link. Most of the initialization happens in br_dev_setup, but allocation of stats is done in ndo_init callback to deal with allocation failure.

This makes the bridge device behave like a physical device. In earlier releases the bridge always asserted carrier. This changes the behavior so that bridge device carrier is on only if one or more ports are in the forwarding state. This should help IPv6 autoconfiguration, DHCP, and routing daemons. I did brief testing with Network and Virt manager and they seem fine, but since this changes behavior of bridge, it should wait until net-next (2.6.39).

Use helper functions to hide all direct accesses, especially writes, to dst_entry metrics values. This will allow us to: 1) More easily change how the metrics are stored. 2) Implement COW for metrics. In particular this will help us put metrics into the inetpeer cache if that is what we end up doing. We can make the _metrics member a pointer instead of an array, initially have it point at the read-only metrics in the FIB, and then on the first set grab an inetpeer entry and point the _metrics member there.

There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32 bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a 32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider. One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to dev_get_stats(). Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack) Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

There are multiple problems with the newly added netpoll support: 1) Use-after-free on each netpoll packet. 2) Invoking unsafe code on netpoll/IRQ path. 3) Breaks when netpoll is enabled on the underlying device. This patch fixes all of these problems. In particular, we now allocate proper netpoll structures for each underlying device. We only allow netpoll to be enabled on the bridge when all the devices underneath it support netpoll. Once it is enabled, we do not allow non-netpoll devices to join the bridge (until netpoll is disabled again). This allows us to do away with the npinfo juggling that caused problem number 1. Incidentally this patch fixes number 2 by bypassing unsafe code such as multicast snooping and netfilter.
