      ipv4: Restore old dst_free() behavior. · 54764bb6
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      commit 404e0a8b (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried
      to solve a race but added a problem at device/fib dismantle time :
      
      We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
      still have dst in their cache.
      dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.
      
      Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
      nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
      rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.
      
      Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
      call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)
      
      I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes
      to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in
      this code.

      net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts · 404e0a8b
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      commit c6cffba4 (ipv4: Fix input route performance regression.)
      added various fatal races with dst refcounts.
      
      crashes happen on tcp workloads if routes are added/deleted at the same
      time.
      
      The dst_free() calls from free_fib_info_rcu() are clearly racy.
      
      We need instead regular dst refcounting (dst_release()) and make
      sure dst_release() is aware of RCU grace periods :
      
      Add DST_RCU_FREE flag so that dst_release() respects an RCU grace period
      before dst destruction for cached dst
      
      Introduce a new inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper, using atomic_inc_not_zero()
      to make sure we dont increase a zero refcount (On a dst currently
      waiting an rcu grace period before destruction)
      
      rt_cache_route() must take a reference on the new cached route, and
      release it if was not able to install it.
      
      With this patch, my machines survive various benchmarks.

      net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}() · 6700c270
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.
      
      Even though we have a route in this context, we need more.  In the
      future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
      etc. keying.  One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.
      
      In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
      for redirects and PMTU information.  This persistent storage will exist
      in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
      full lookup flow key here.  Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
      and create/update the persistent entry.

      rtnetlink: Compute and store minimum ifinfo dump size · c7ac8679
      Greg Rose 提交于
      The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to
      a single page.  This is not enough for additional interface info
      available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in
      which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately
      40 VFs were created per interface.
      
      Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will
      calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate
      enough data to satisfy the request.

      net: Implement read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics. · 62fa8a84
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Routing metrics are now copy-on-write.
      
      Initially a route entry points it's metrics at a read-only location.
      If a routing table entry exists, it will point there.  Else it will
      point at the all zero metric place-holder called 'dst_default_metrics'.
      
      The writeability state of the metrics is stored in the low bits of the
      metrics pointer, we have two bits left to spare if we want to store
      more states.
      
      For the initial implementation, COW is implemented simply via kmalloc.
      However future enhancements will change this to place the writable
      metrics somewhere else, in order to increase sharing.  Very likely
      this "somewhere else" will be the inetpeer cache.
      
      Note also that this means that metrics updates may transiently fail
      if we cannot COW the metrics successfully.
      
      But even by itself, this patch should decrease memory usage and
      increase cache locality especially for routing workloads.  In those
      cases the read-only metric copies stay in place and never get written
      to.
      
      TCP workloads where metrics get updated, and those rare cases where
      PMTU triggers occur, will take a very slight performance hit.  But
      that hit will be alleviated when the long-term writable metrics
      move to a more sharable location.
      
      Since the metrics storage went from a u32 array of RTAX_MAX entries to
      what is essentially a pointer, some retooling of the dst_entry layout
      was necessary.
      
      Most importantly, we need to preserve the alignment of the reference
      count so that it doesn't share cache lines with the read-mostly state,
      as per Eric Dumazet's alignment assertion checks.
      
      The only non-trivial bit here is the move of the 'flags' member into
      the writeable cacheline.  This is OK since we are always accessing the
      flags around the same moment when we made a modification to the
      reference count.

      net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor. · 0dbaee3b
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function,
      dst_metric_advmss().
      
      Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot,
      and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops
      AF specific callback.
      
      For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which
      preserves existing behavior.
      
      Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates
      advmss on pmtu updates.  This inconsistency in advmss handling
      results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with.

      net: Abstract away all dst_entry metrics accesses. · defb3519
      David S. Miller 提交于
      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.
