      net: extend net_device allocation to vmalloc() · 74d332c1
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      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.

      ====================
      SCTP fix/updates
      
      Please see patch 5 for the main description/motivation, the rest just
      brings in the needed functionality for that. Although this is actually
      a fix, I've based it against net-next as some additional work for
      fixing it was needed.

      net: sctp: fix and consolidate SCTP checksumming code · e6d8b64b
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      This fixes an outstanding bug found through IPVS, where SCTP packets
      with skb->data_len > 0 (non-linearized) and empty frag_list, but data
      accumulated in frags[] member, are forwarded with incorrect checksum
      letting SCTP initial handshake fail on some systems. Linearizing each
      SCTP skb in IPVS to prevent that would not be a good solution as
      this leads to an additional and unnecessary performance penalty on
      the load-balancer itself for no good reason (as we actually only want
      to update the checksum, and can do that in a different/better way
      presented here).
      
      The actual problem is elsewhere, namely, that SCTP's checksumming
      in sctp_compute_cksum() does not take frags[] into account like
      skb_checksum() does. So while we are fixing this up, we better reuse
      the existing code that we have anyway in __skb_checksum() and use it
      for walking through the data doing checksumming. This will not only
      fix this issue, but also consolidates some SCTP code with core
      sk_buff code, bringing it closer together and removing respectively
      avoiding reimplementation of skb_checksum() for no good reason.
      
      As crc32c() can use hardware implementation within the crypto layer,
      we leave that intact (it wraps around / falls back to e.g. slice-by-8
      algorithm in __crc32c_le() otherwise); plus use the __crc32c_le_combine()
      combinator for crc32c blocks.
      
      Also, we remove all other SCTP checksumming code, so that we only
      have to use sctp_compute_cksum() from now on; for doing that, we need
      to transform SCTP checkumming in output path slightly, and can leave
      the rest intact.

      net: skb_checksum: allow custom update/combine for walking skb · 2817a336
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      Currently, skb_checksum walks over 1) linearized, 2) frags[], and
      3) frag_list data and calculats the one's complement, a 32 bit
      result suitable for feeding into itself or csum_tcpudp_magic(),
      but unsuitable for SCTP as we're calculating CRC32c there.
      
      Hence, in order to not re-implement the very same function in
      SCTP (and maybe other protocols) over and over again, use an
      update() + combine() callback internally to allow for walking
      over the skb with different algorithms.

      We already have 100 test cases for crcs itself, so split the test
      buffer with a-prio known checksums, and test crc of two blocks
      against crc of the whole block for the same results.

      lib: crc32: add functionality to combine two crc32{, c}s in GF(2) · 6e95fcaa
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      This patch adds a combinator to merge two or more crc32{,c}s
      into a new one. This is useful for checksum computations of
      fragmented skbs that use crc32/crc32c as checksums.
      
      The arithmetics for combining both in the GF(2) was taken and
      slightly modified from zlib. Only passing two crcs is insufficient
      as two crcs and the length of the second piece is needed for
      merging. The code is made generic, so that only polynomials
      need to be passed for crc32_le resp. crc32c_le.

      This is nothing more but a whitepace cleanup, as 80 chars is not a

      look ugly. So fix it up.
