      nohz: Use IPI implicit full barrier against rq->nr_running r/w · 3882ec64
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      A full dynticks CPU is allowed to stop its tick when a single task runs.
      Meanwhile when a new task gets enqueued, the CPU must be notified so that
      it can restart its tick to maintain local fairness and other accounting
      details.
      
      This notification is performed by way of an IPI. Then when the target
      receives the IPI, we expect it to see the new value of rq->nr_running.
      
      Hence the following ordering scenario:
      
         CPU 0                   CPU 1
      
         write rq->running       get IPI
         smp_wmb()               smp_rmb()
         send IPI                read rq->nr_running
      
      But Paul Mckenney says that nowadays IPIs imply a full barrier on
      all architectures. So we can safely remove this pair and rely on the
      implicit barriers that come along IPI send/receive. Lets
      just comment on this new assumption.

      nohz: Use nohz own full kick on 2nd task enqueue · fd2ac4f4
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Now that we have a nohz full remote kick based on irq work, lets use
      it to notify a CPU that it's exiting single task mode.
      
      This unbloats a bit the scheduler IPI that the nohz code was abusing
      for its cool "callable anywhere/anytime" properties.

      nohz: Switch to nohz full remote kick on timer enqueue · 53c5fa16
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      When a new timer is enqueued on a full dynticks target, that CPU must
      re-evaluate the next tick to handle the timer correctly.
      
      This is currently performed through the scheduler IPI. Meanwhile this
      happens at the cost of off-topic workarounds in that fast path to make
      it call irq_exit().
      
      As we plan to remove this hack off the scheduler IPI, lets use
      the nohz full kick instead. Pretty much any IPI fits for that job
      as long at it calls irq_exit(). The nohz full kick just happens to be
      handy and readily available here.
      
      If it happens to be too much an overkill in the future, we can still
      turn that timer kick into an empty IPI.

      nohz: Support nohz full remote kick · 3d36aebc
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      Remotely kicking a full nohz CPU in order to make it re-evaluate its
      next tick is currently implemented using the scheduler IPI.
      
      However this bloats a scheduler fast path with an off-topic feature.
      The scheduler tick was abused here for its cool "callable
      anywhere/anytime" properties.
      
      But now that the irq work subsystem can queue remote callbacks, it's
      a perfect fit to safely queue IPIs when interrupts are disabled
      without worrying about concurrent callers.
      
      So lets implement remote kick on top of irq work. This is going to
      be used when a new event requires the next tick to be recalculated:
      more than 1 task competing on the CPU, timer armed, ...

      irq_work: Implement remote queueing · 47885016
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      irq work currently only supports local callbacks. However its code
      is mostly ready to run remote callbacks and we have some potential user.
      
      The full nohz subsystem currently open codes its own remote irq work
      on top of the scheduler ipi when it wants a CPU to reevaluate its next
      tick. However this ad hoc solution bloats the scheduler IPI.
      
      Lets just extend the irq work subsystem to support remote queuing on top
      of the generic SMP IPI to handle this kind of user. This shouldn't add
      noticeable overhead.

      irq_work: Split raised and lazy lists · b93e0b8f
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      An irq work can be handled from two places: from the tick if the work
      carries the "lazy" flag and the tick is periodic, or from a self IPI.
      
      We merge all these works in a single list and we use some per cpu latch
      to avoid raising a self-IPI when one is already pending.
      
      Now we could do away with this ugly latch if only the list was only made of
      non-lazy works. Just enqueueing a work on the empty list would be enough
      to know if we need to raise an IPI or not.
      
      Also we are going to implement remote irq work queuing. Then the per CPU
      latch will need to become atomic in the global scope. That's too bad
      because, here as well, just enqueueing a work on an empty list of
      non-lazy works would be enough to know if we need to raise an IPI or not.
      
      So lets take a way out of this: split the works in two distinct lists,
      one for the works that can be handled by the next tick and another
      one for those handled by the IPI. Just checking if the latter is empty
      when we queue a new work is enough to know if we need to raise an IPI.

      Revert "offb: Add palette hack for little endian" · 68986c9f
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This reverts commit e1edf18b.
      
      This patch was a misguided attempt at fixing offb for LE ppc64
      kernels on BE qemu but is just wrong ... it breaks real LE/LE
      setups, LE with real HW, and existing mixed endian systems
      that did the fight thing with the appropriate device-tree
      property. Bad reviewing on my part, sorry.
      
      The right fix is to either make qemu change its endian when
      the guest changes endian (working on that) or to use the
      existing foreign endian support.

      net: sctp: fix permissions for rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs · b58537a1
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      Commit 3fd091e7 ("[SCTP]: Remove multiple levels of msecs
      to jiffies conversions.") has silently changed permissions for
      rto_alpha and rto_beta knobs from 0644 to 0444. The purpose of
      this was to discourage users from tweaking rto_alpha and
      rto_beta knobs in production environments since they are key
      to correctly compute rtt/srtt.
      
      RFC4960 under section 6.3.1. RTO Calculation says regarding
      rto_alpha and rto_beta under rule C3 and C4:
      
        [...]
        C3)  When a new RTT measurement R' is made, set
      
             RTTVAR <- (1 - RTO.Beta) * RTTVAR + RTO.Beta * |SRTT - R'|
      
             and
      
             SRTT <- (1 - RTO.Alpha) * SRTT + RTO.Alpha * R'
      
             Note: The value of SRTT used in the update to RTTVAR
             is its value before updating SRTT itself using the
             second assignment. After the computation, update
             RTO <- SRTT + 4 * RTTVAR.
      
        C4)  When data is in flight and when allowed by rule C5
             below, a new RTT measurement MUST be made each round
             trip. Furthermore, new RTT measurements SHOULD be
             made no more than once per round trip for a given
             destination transport address. There are two reasons
             for this recommendation: First, it appears that
             measuring more frequently often does not in practice
             yield any significant benefit [ALLMAN99]; second,
             if measurements are made more often, then the values
             of RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta in rule C3 above should be
             adjusted so that SRTT and RTTVAR still adjust to
             changes at roughly the same rate (in terms of how many
             round trips it takes them to reflect new values) as
             they would if making only one measurement per
             round-trip and using RTO.Alpha and RTO.Beta as given
             in rule C3. However, the exact nature of these
             adjustments remains a research issue.
        [...]
      
      While it is discouraged to adjust rto_alpha and rto_beta
      and not further specified how to adjust them, the RFC also
      doesn't explicitly forbid it, but rather gives a RECOMMENDED
      default value (rto_alpha=3, rto_beta=2). We have a couple
      of users relying on the old permissions before they got
      changed. That said, if someone really has the urge to adjust
      them, we could allow it with a warning in the log.

      Tom Herbert 提交于
      Geert reported issues regarding checksum complete and UDP.
      The logic introduced in commit 7e3cead5
      ("net: Save software checksum complete") is not correct.
      
      This patch:
      1) Restores code in __skb_checksum_complete_header except for setting
         CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. This function may be calculating checksum on
         something less than skb->len.
      2) Adds saving checksum to __skb_checksum_complete. The full packet
         checksum 0..skb->len is calculated without adding in pseudo header.
         This value is saved in skb->csum and then the pseudo header is added
         to that to derive the checksum for validation.
      3) In both __skb_checksum_complete_header and __skb_checksum_complete,
         set skb->csum_valid to whether checksum of zero was computed. This
         allows skb_csum_unnecessary to return true without changing to
         CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY which was done previously.
      4) Copy new csum related bits in __copy_skb_header.

      net: Fix GSO constants to match NETIF flags · 4b28252c
      Tom Herbert 提交于
      Joseph Gasparakis reported that VXLAN GSO offload stopped working with
      i40e device after recent UDP changes. The problem is that the
      SKB_GSO_* bits are out of sync with the corresponding NETIF flags. This
      patch fixes that. Also, we add BUILD_BUG_ONs in net_gso_ok for several
      GSO constants that were missing to avoid the problem in the future.
