      net: clean up snmp stats code · 698365fa
      WANG Cong 提交于
      commit 8f0ea0fe (snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%)
      reduced snmp array size to 1, so technically it doesn't have to be
      an array any more. What's more, after the following commit:
      
      	commit 933393f5
      	Date:   Thu Dec 22 11:58:51 2011 -0600
      
      	    percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants
      
      	    We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of
      	    preemption and interrupt state.  That has no material change for x86
      	    and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations.  However, arches that
      	    do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will
      	    now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption.
      
      probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after
      almost 3 years, no one complains.
      
      So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init()
      and snmp_mib_free() as well.

      ipv4: ipv6: better estimate tunnel header cut for correct ufo handling · 91a48a2e
      Hannes Frederic Sowa 提交于
      Currently the UFO fragmentation process does not correctly handle inner
      UDP frames.
      
      (The following tcpdumps are captured on the parent interface with ufo
      disabled while tunnel has ufo enabled, 2000 bytes payload, mtu 1280,
      both sit device):
      
      IPv6:
      16:39:10.031613 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3208, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPv6 (41), length 1300)
          192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP6 (hlim 64, next-header Fragment (44) payload length: 1240) 2001::1 > 2001::8: frag (0x00000001:0|1232) 44883 > distinct: UDP, length 2000
      16:39:10.031709 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3209, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPv6 (41), length 844)
          192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP6 (hlim 64, next-header Fragment (44) payload length: 784) 2001::1 > 2001::8: frag (0x00000001:0|776) 58979 > 46366: UDP, length 5471
      
      We can see that fragmentation header offset is not correctly updated.
      (fragmentation id handling is corrected by 916e4cf4 ("ipv6: reuse
      ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data")).
      
      IPv4:
      16:39:57.737761 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3209, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPIP (4), length 1296)
          192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57034, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 1276)
          192.168.99.1.35961 > 192.168.99.2.distinct: UDP, length 2000
      16:39:57.738028 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 3210, offset 0, flags [DF], proto IPIP (4), length 792)
          192.168.122.151 > 1.1.1.1: IP (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 57035, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 772)
          192.168.99.1.13531 > 192.168.99.2.20653: UDP, length 51109
      
      In this case fragmentation id is incremented and offset is not updated.
      
      First, I aligned inet_gso_segment and ipv6_gso_segment:
      * align naming of flags
      * ipv6_gso_segment: setting skb->encapsulation is unnecessary, as we
        always ensure that the state of this flag is left untouched when
        returning from upper gso segmenation function
      * ipv6_gso_segment: move skb_reset_inner_headers below updating the
        fragmentation header data, we don't care for updating fragmentation
        header data
      * remove currently unneeded comment indicating skb->encapsulation might
        get changed by upper gso_segment callback (gre and udp-tunnel reset
        encapsulation after segmentation on each fragment)
      
      If we encounter an IPIP or SIT gso skb we now check for the protocol ==
      IPPROTO_UDP and that we at least have already traversed another ip(6)
      protocol header.
      
      The reason why we have to special case GSO_IPIP and GSO_SIT is that
      we reset skb->encapsulation to 0 while skb_mac_gso_segment the inner
      protocol of GSO_UDP_TUNNEL or GSO_GRE packets.

      ipv4: introduce hardened ip_no_pmtu_disc mode · 8ed1dc44
      Hannes Frederic Sowa 提交于
      This new ip_no_pmtu_disc mode only allowes fragmentation-needed errors
      to be honored by protocols which do more stringent validation on the
      ICMP's packet payload. This knob is useful for people who e.g. want to
      run an unmodified DNS server in a namespace where they need to use pmtu
      for TCP connections (as they are used for zone transfers or fallback
      for requests) but don't want to use possibly spoofed UDP pmtu information.
      
      Currently the whitelisted protocols are TCP, SCTP and DCCP as they check
      if the returned packet is in the window or if the association is valid.

      net-gre-gro: Add GRE support to the GRO stack · bf5a755f
      Jerry Chu 提交于
      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%

      The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
      csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum
      (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

      net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support · 299603e8
      Jerry Chu 提交于
      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.

      inet: fix a UFO regression · dcd60771
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      While testing virtio_net and skb_segment() changes, Hannes reported
      that UFO was sending wrong frames.
      
      It appears this was introduced by a recent commit :
      8c3a897b ("inet: restore gso for vxlan")
      
      The old condition to perform IP frag was :
      
      tunnel = !!skb->encapsulation;
      ...
              if (!tunnel && proto == IPPROTO_UDP) {
      
      So the new one should be :
      
      udpfrag = !skb->encapsulation && proto == IPPROTO_UDP;
      ...
              if (udpfrag) {
      
      Initialization of udpfrag must be done before call
      to ops->callbacks.gso_segment(skb, features), as
      skb_udp_tunnel_segment() clears skb->encapsulation
      
      (We want udpfrag to be true for UFO, false for VXLAN)

      net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdep · 827da44c
      John Stultz 提交于
      In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we
      must explicitly initialize any locks.
      
      The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need
      to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize
      the structure.
      
      This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code
      to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes
      this worth while.
      
      Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the
      changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some
      separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various
      maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with
      the seqcount lockdep enablement.
      
      Feedback would be appreciated!

      inet: convert inet_ehash_secret and ipv6_hash_secret to net_get_random_once · 1bbdceef
      Hannes Frederic Sowa 提交于
      Initialize the ehash and ipv6_hash_secrets with net_get_random_once.
      
      Each compilation unit gets its own secret now:
        ipv4/inet_hashtables.o
        ipv4/udp.o
        ipv6/inet6_hashtables.o
        ipv6/udp.o
        rds/connection.o
      
      The functions still get inlined into the hashing functions. In the fast
      path we have at most two (needed in ipv6) if (unlikely(...)).

      udp: ipv4: Add udp early demux · 421b3885
      Shawn Bohrer 提交于
      The removal of the routing cache introduced a performance regression for
      some UDP workloads since a dst lookup must be done for each packet.
      This change caches the dst per socket in a similar manner to what we do
      for TCP by implementing early_demux.
      
      For UDP multicast we can only cache the dst if there is only one
      receiving socket on the host.  Since caching only works when there is
      one receiving socket we do the multicast socket lookup using RCU.
      
      For UDP unicast we only demux sockets with an exact match in order to
      not break forwarding setups.  Additionally since the hash chains may be
      long we only check the first socket to see if it is a match and not
      waste extra time searching the whole chain when we might not find an
      exact match.

      MPLS: Add limited GSO support · 0d89d203
      Simon Horman 提交于
      In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
      added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
      NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.
      
      The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
      whose skbs are GSO.
      
      SKB Usage:
      
      When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
      the following to skb metadata:
      
      * Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
        skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.
      
      * Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.
      
      * Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
        end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.
      
      I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
      kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
      That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
      and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
      vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
      present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.
      
      Features:
      
      I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
      consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
      you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.
      
      This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
      to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.
      
      A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
      hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
      and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.
      
      Alternate Implementation:
      
      One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
      and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
      understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
      for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
      __skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().
      
      I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
      not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
      into the kernel or inserted as a module.
      
      MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.
