"cat /proc/net/dev" uses RCU protection only. Its quite possible we call a driver get_stats() method while device is dismantling and freeing its data structures. So get_stats() methods must be very careful not accessing driver private data without appropriate locking. In ixgbe case, we access rx_ring pointers. These pointers are freed in ixgbe_clear_interrupt_scheme() and set to NULL, this can trigger NULL dereference in ixgbe_get_stats64() A possible fix is to use RCU locking in ixgbe_get_stats64() and defer rx_ring freeing after a grace period in ixgbe_clear_interrupt_scheme() Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Reported-by: NTantilov, Emil S <emil.s.tantilov@intel.com> Tested-by: NRoss Brattain <ross.b.brattain@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

Right now, fields in struct sock are not optimally ordered, because each path (RX softirq, TX completion, RX user, TX user) has to touch fields that are contained in many different cache lines. The really critical thing is to shrink number of cache lines that are used at RX softirq time : CPU handling softirqs for a device can receive many frames per second for many sockets. If load is too big, we can drop frames at NIC level. RPS or multiqueue cards can help, but better reduce latency if possible. This patch starts with UDP protocol, then additional patches will try to reduce latencies of other ones as well. At RX softirq time, fields of interest for UDP protocol are : (not counting ones in inet struct for the lookup) Read/Written: sk_refcnt (atomic increment/decrement) sk_rmem_alloc & sk_backlog.len (to check if there is room in queues) sk_receive_queue sk_backlog (if socket locked by user program) sk_rxhash sk_forward_alloc sk_drops Read only: sk_rcvbuf (sk_rcvqueues_full()) sk_filter sk_wq sk_policy[0] sk_flags Additional notes : - sk_backlog has one hole on 64bit arches. We can fill it to save 8 bytes. - sk_backlog is used only if RX sofirq handler finds the socket while locked by user. - sk_rxhash is written only once per flow. - sk_drops is written only if queues are full Final layout : [1] One section grouping all read/write fields, but placing rxhash and sk_backlog at the end of this section. [2] One section grouping all read fields in RX handler (sk_filter, sk_rcv_buf, sk_wq) [3] Section used by other paths I'll post a patch on its own to put sk_refcnt at the end of struct sock_common so that it shares same cache line than section [1] New offsets on 64bit arch : sizeof(struct sock)=0x268 offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) =0x10 offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) =0x48 offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue)=0x68 offsetof(struct sock, sk_backlog)=0x80 offsetof(struct sock, sk_rmem_alloc)=0x80 offsetof(struct sock, sk_forward_alloc)=0x98 offsetof(struct sock, sk_rxhash)=0x9c offsetof(struct sock, sk_rcvbuf)=0xa4 offsetof(struct sock, sk_drops) =0xa0 offsetof(struct sock, sk_filter)=0xa8 offsetof(struct sock, sk_wq)=0xb0 offsetof(struct sock, sk_policy)=0xd0 offsetof(struct sock, sk_flags) =0xe0 Instead of : sizeof(struct sock)=0x270 offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) =0x10 offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) =0x50 offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue)=0xc0 offsetof(struct sock, sk_backlog)=0x70 offsetof(struct sock, sk_rmem_alloc)=0xac offsetof(struct sock, sk_forward_alloc)=0x10c offsetof(struct sock, sk_rxhash)=0x128 offsetof(struct sock, sk_rcvbuf)=0x4c offsetof(struct sock, sk_drops) =0x16c offsetof(struct sock, sk_filter)=0x198 offsetof(struct sock, sk_wq)=0x88 offsetof(struct sock, sk_policy)=0x98 offsetof(struct sock, sk_flags) =0x130 Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

packet: Enhance AF_PACKET implementation to not require high order contiguous memory allocation (v4) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Version 4 of this patch. Change notes: 1) Removed extra memset. Didn't think kcalloc added a GFP_ZERO the way kzalloc did :) Summary: It was shown to me recently that systems under high load were driven very deep into swap when tcpdump was run. The reason this happened was because the AF_PACKET protocol has a SET_RINGBUFFER socket option that allows the user space application to specify how many entries an AF_PACKET socket will have and how large each entry will be. It seems the default setting for tcpdump is to set the ring buffer to 32 entries of 64 Kb each, which implies 32 order 5 allocation. Thats difficult under good circumstances, and horrid under memory pressure. I thought it would be good to make that a bit more usable. I was going to do a simple conversion of the ring buffer from contigous pages to iovecs, but unfortunately, the metadata which AF_PACKET places in these buffers can easily span a page boundary, and given that these buffers get mapped into user space, and the data layout doesn't easily allow for a change to padding between frames to avoid that, a simple iovec change is just going to break user space ABI consistency. So I've done this, I've added a three tiered mechanism to the af_packet set_ring socket option. It attempts to allocate memory in the following order: 1) Using __get_free_pages with GFP_NORETRY set, so as to fail quickly without digging into swap 2) Using vmalloc 3) Using __get_free_pages with GFP_NORETRY clear, causing us to try as hard as needed to get the memory The effect is that we don't disturb the system as much when we're under load, while still being able to conduct tcpdumps effectively. Tested successfully by me.

This patch move RX queue allocation to alloc_netdev_mq and freeing of the queues to free_netdev (symmetric to TX queue allocation). Each kobject RX queue takes a reference to the queue's device so that the device can't be freed before all the kobjects have been released-- this obviates the need for reference counts specific to RX queues.
