      net: bind() fix error return on wrong address family · c349a528
      Marcus Meissner 提交于
      Hi,
      
      Reinhard Max also pointed out that the error should EAFNOSUPPORT according
      to POSIX.
      
      The Linux manpages have it as EINVAL, some other OSes (Minix, HPUX, perhaps BSD) use
      EAFNOSUPPORT. Windows uses WSAEFAULT according to MSDN.
      
      Other protocols error values in their af bind() methods in current mainline git as far
      as a brief look shows:
      	EAFNOSUPPORT: atm, appletalk, l2tp, llc, phonet, rxrpc
      	EINVAL: ax25, bluetooth, decnet, econet, ieee802154, iucv, netlink, netrom, packet, rds, rose, unix, x25,
      	No check?: can/raw, ipv6/raw, irda, l2tp/l2tp_ip

      OK, here is the net-2.6 based one then, thanks !
      
      [PATCH v2] net: rfs: enable RFS before first data packet is received
      
      First packet received on a passive tcp flow is not correctly RFS
      steered.
      
      One sock_rps_record_flow() call is missing in inet_accept()
      
      But before that, we also must record rxhash when child socket is setup.

      snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50% · 8f0ea0fe
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      SNMP mibs use two percpu arrays, one used in BH context, another in USER
      context. With increasing number of cpus in machines, and fact that ipv6
      uses per network device ipstats_mib, this is consuming a lot of memory
      if many network devices are registered.
      
      commit be281e55 (ipv6: reduce per device ICMP mib sizes) shrinked
      percpu needs for ipv6, but we can reduce memory use a bit more.
      
      With recent percpu infrastructure (irqsafe_cpu_inc() ...), we no longer
      need this BH/USER separation since we can update counters in a single
      x86 instruction, regardless of the BH/USER context.
      
      Other arches than x86 might need to disable irq in their
      irqsafe_cpu_inc() implementation : If this happens to be a problem, we
      can make SNMP_ARRAY_SZ arch dependent, but a previous poll
      ( https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/17/174 ) to arch maintainers did not
      raise strong opposition.
      
      Only on 32bit arches, we need to disable BH for 64bit counters updates
      done from USER context (currently used for IP MIB)
      
      This also reduces vmlinux size :
      
      1) x86_64 build
      $ size vmlinux.before vmlinux.after
         text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename

      net: ipv4: add IPPROTO_ICMP socket kind · c319b4d7
      Vasiliy Kulikov 提交于
      This patch adds IPPROTO_ICMP socket kind.  It makes it possible to send
      ICMP_ECHO messages and receive the corresponding ICMP_ECHOREPLY messages
      without any special privileges.  In other words, the patch makes it
      possible to implement setuid-less and CAP_NET_RAW-less /bin/ping.  In
      order not to increase the kernel's attack surface, the new functionality
      is disabled by default, but is enabled at bootup by supporting Linux
      distributions, optionally with restriction to a group or a group range
      (see below).
      
      Similar functionality is implemented in Mac OS X:
      http://www.manpagez.com/man/4/icmp/
      
      A new ping socket is created with
      
          socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, PROT_ICMP)
      
      Message identifiers (octets 4-5 of ICMP header) are interpreted as local
      ports. Addresses are stored in struct sockaddr_in. No port numbers are
      reserved for privileged processes, port 0 is reserved for API ("let the
      kernel pick a free number"). There is no notion of remote ports, remote
      port numbers provided by the user (e.g. in connect()) are ignored.
      
      Data sent and received include ICMP headers. This is deliberate to:
      1) Avoid the need to transport headers values like sequence numbers by
      other means.
      2) Make it easier to port existing programs using raw sockets.
      
      ICMP headers given to send() are checked and sanitized. The type must be
      ICMP_ECHO and the code must be zero (future extensions might relax this,
      see below). The id is set to the number (local port) of the socket, the
      checksum is always recomputed.
      
      ICMP reply packets received from the network are demultiplexed according
      to their id's, and are returned by recv() without any modifications.
      IP header information and ICMP errors of those packets may be obtained
      via ancillary data (IP_RECVTTL, IP_RETOPTS, and IP_RECVERR). ICMP source
      quenches and redirects are reported as fake errors via the error queue
      (IP_RECVERR); the next hop address for redirects is saved to ee_info (in
      network order).
      
      socket(2) is restricted to the group range specified in
      "/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ping_group_range".  It is "1 0" by default, meaning
      that nobody (not even root) may create ping sockets.  Setting it to "100
      100" would grant permissions to the single group (to either make
      /sbin/ping g+s and owned by this group or to grant permissions to the
      "netadmins" group), "0 4294967295" would enable it for the world, "100
      4294967295" would enable it for the users, but not daemons.
      
      The existing code might be (in the unlikely case anyone needs it)
      extended rather easily to handle other similar pairs of ICMP messages
      (Timestamp/Reply, Information Request/Reply, Address Mask Request/Reply
      etc.).
      
      Userspace ping util & patch for it:
      http://openwall.info/wiki/people/segoon/ping
      
      For Openwall GNU/*/Linux it was the last step on the road to the
      setuid-less distro.  A revision of this patch (for RHEL5/OpenVZ kernels)
      is in use in Owl-current, such as in the 2011/03/12 LiveCD ISOs:
      http://mirrors.kernel.org/openwall/Owl/current/iso/
      
      Initially this functionality was written by Pavel Kankovsky for
      Linux 2.4.32, but unfortunately it was never made public.
      
      All ping options (-b, -p, -Q, -R, -s, -t, -T, -M, -I), are tested with
      the patch.
      
      PATCH v3:
          - switched to flowi4.
          - minor changes to be consistent with raw sockets code.
      
      PATCH v2:
          - changed ping_debug() to pr_debug().
          - removed CONFIG_IP_PING.
          - removed ping_seq_fops.owner field (unused for procfs).
          - switched to proc_net_fops_create().
          - switched to %pK in seq_printf().
      
      PATCH v1:
          - fixed checksumming bug.
          - CAP_NET_RAW may not create icmp sockets anymore.
      
      RFC v2:
          - minor cleanups.
          - introduced sysctl'able group range to restrict socket(2).

      inet: add RCU protection to inet->opt · f6d8bd05
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      We lack proper synchronization to manipulate inet->opt ip_options
      
      Problem is ip_make_skb() calls ip_setup_cork() and
      ip_setup_cork() possibly makes a copy of ipc->opt (struct ip_options),
      without any protection against another thread manipulating inet->opt.
      
      Another thread can change inet->opt pointer and free old one under us.
      
      Use RCU to protect inet->opt (changed to inet->inet_opt).
      
      Instead of handling atomic refcounts, just copy ip_options when
      necessary, to avoid cache line dirtying.
      
      We cant insert an rcu_head in struct ip_options since its included in
      skb->cb[], so this patch is large because I had to introduce a new
      ip_options_rcu structure.

      ipv4: Sanitize and simplify ip_route_{connect,newports}() · 2d7192d6
      David S. Miller 提交于
      These functions are used together as a unit for route resolution
      during connect().  They address the chicken-and-egg problem that
      exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing,
      yet such port allocations require addressing information from the
      routing code.
      
      It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in
      particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice.
      
      Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object.  That way we only
      need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call.
      
      Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that
      flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the
      route re-lookup.
      
      Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works
      in a big comment.

      net: Add compat ioctl support for the ipv4 multicast ioctl SIOCGETSGCNT · 709b46e8
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      SIOCGETSGCNT is not a unique ioctl value as it it maps tio SIOCPROTOPRIVATE +1,
      which unfortunately means the existing infrastructure for compat networking
      ioctls is insufficient.  A trivial compact ioctl implementation would conflict
      with:
      
      SIOCAX25ADDUID
      SIOCAIPXPRISLT
      SIOCGETSGCNT_IN6
      SIOCGETSGCNT
      SIOCRSSCAUSE
      SIOCX25SSUBSCRIP
      SIOCX25SDTEFACILITIES
      
      To make this work I have updated the compat_ioctl decode path to mirror the
      the normal ioctl decode path.  I have added an ipv4 inet_compat_ioctl function
      so that I can have ipv4 specific compat ioctls.   I have added a compat_ioctl
      function into struct proto so I can break out ioctls by which kind of ip socket
      I am using.  I have added a compat_raw_ioctl function because SIOCGETSGCNT only
      works on raw sockets.  I have added a ipmr_compat_ioctl that mirrors the normal
      ipmr_ioctl.
      
      This was necessary because unfortunately the struct layout for the SIOCGETSGCNT
      has unsigned longs in it so changes between 32bit and 64bit kernels.
      
      This change was sufficient to run a 32bit ip multicast routing daemon on a
      64bit kernel.

      snmp: 64bit ipstats_mib for all arches · 4ce3c183
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/netstat expose SNMP counters.
      
      Width of these counters is either 32 or 64 bits, depending on the size
      of "unsigned long" in kernel.
      
      This means user program parsing these files must already be prepared to
      deal with 64bit values, regardless of user program being 32 or 64 bit.
      
      This patch introduces 64bit snmp values for IPSTAT mib, where some
      counters can wrap pretty fast if they are 32bit wide.

      rfs: Receive Flow Steering · fec5e652
      Tom Herbert 提交于
      This patch implements receive flow steering (RFS).  RFS steers
      received packets for layer 3 and 4 processing to the CPU where
      the application for the corresponding flow is running.  RFS is an
      extension of Receive Packet Steering (RPS).
      
      The basic idea of RFS is that when an application calls recvmsg
      (or sendmsg) the application's running CPU is stored in a hash
      table that is indexed by the connection's rxhash which is stored in
      the socket structure.  The rxhash is passed in skb's received on
      the connection from netif_receive_skb.  For each received packet,
      the associated rxhash is used to look up the CPU in the hash table,
      if a valid CPU is set then the packet is steered to that CPU using
      the RPS mechanisms.
      
      The convolution of the simple approach is that it would potentially
      allow OOO packets.  If threads are thrashing around CPUs or multiple
      threads are trying to read from the same sockets, a quickly changing
      CPU value in the hash table could cause rampant OOO packets--
      we consider this a non-starter.
      
      To avoid OOO packets, this solution implements two types of hash
      tables: rps_sock_flow_table and rps_dev_flow_table.
      
      rps_sock_table is a global hash table.  Each entry is just a CPU
      number and it is populated in recvmsg and sendmsg as described above.
      This table contains the "desired" CPUs for flows.
      
      rps_dev_flow_table is specific to each device queue.  Each entry
      contains a CPU and a tail queue counter.  The CPU is the "current"
      CPU for a matching flow.  The tail queue counter holds the value
      of a tail queue counter for the associated CPU's backlog queue at
      the time of last enqueue for a flow matching the entry.
      
      Each backlog queue has a queue head counter which is incremented
      on dequeue, and so a queue tail counter is computed as queue head
      count + queue length.  When a packet is enqueued on a backlog queue,
      the current value of the queue tail counter is saved in the hash
      entry of the rps_dev_flow_table.
      
      And now the trick: when selecting the CPU for RPS (get_rps_cpu)
      the rps_sock_flow table and the rps_dev_flow table for the RX queue
      are consulted.  When the desired CPU for the flow (found in the
      rps_sock_flow table) does not match the current CPU (found in the
      rps_dev_flow table), the current CPU is changed to the desired CPU
      if one of the following is true:
      
      - The current CPU is unset (equal to RPS_NO_CPU)
      - Current CPU is offline
      - The current CPU's queue head counter >= queue tail counter in the
      rps_dev_flow table.  This checks if the queue tail has advanced
      beyond the last packet that was enqueued using this table entry.
      This guarantees that all packets queued using this entry have been
      dequeued, thus preserving in order delivery.
      
      Making each queue have its own rps_dev_flow table has two advantages:
      1) the tail queue counters will be written on each receive, so
      keeping the table local to interrupting CPU s good for locality.  2)
      this allows lockless access to the table-- the CPU number and queue
      tail counter need to be accessed together under mutual exclusion
      from netif_receive_skb, we assume that this is only called from
      device napi_poll which is non-reentrant.
      
      This patch implements RFS for TCP and connected UDP sockets.
      It should be usable for other flow oriented protocols.
      
      There are two configuration parameters for RFS.  The
      "rps_flow_entries" kernel init parameter sets the number of
      entries in the rps_sock_flow_table, the per rxqueue sysfs entry
      "rps_flow_cnt" contains the number of entries in the rps_dev_flow
      table for the rxqueue.  Both are rounded to power of two.
      
      The obvious benefit of RFS (over just RPS) is that it achieves
      CPU locality between the receive processing for a flow and the
      applications processing; this can result in increased performance
      (higher pps, lower latency).
      
      The benefits of RFS are dependent on cache hierarchy, application
      load, and other factors.  On simple benchmarks, we don't necessarily
      see improvement and sometimes see degradation.  However, for more
      complex benchmarks and for applications where cache pressure is
      much higher this technique seems to perform very well.
      
      Below are some benchmark results which show the potential benfit of
      this patch.  The netperf test has 500 instances of netperf TCP_RR
      test with 1 byte req. and resp.  The RPC test is an request/response
      test similar in structure to netperf RR test ith 100 threads on
      each host, but does more work in userspace that netperf.

      net: sk_dst_cache RCUification · b6c6712a
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      With latest CONFIG_PROVE_RCU stuff, I felt more comfortable to make this
      work.
      
      sk->sk_dst_cache is currently protected by a rwlock (sk_dst_lock)
      
      This rwlock is readlocked for a very small amount of time, and dst
      entries are already freed after RCU grace period. This calls for RCU
      again :)
      
      This patch converts sk_dst_lock to a spinlock, and use RCU for readers.
      
      __sk_dst_get() is supposed to be called with rcu_read_lock() or if
      socket locked by user, so use appropriate rcu_dereference_check()
      condition (rcu_read_lock_held() || sock_owned_by_user(sk))
      
      This patch avoids two atomic ops per tx packet on UDP connected sockets,
      for example, and permits sk_dst_lock to be much less dirtied.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to net · 7d720c3e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Add __percpu sparse annotations to net.
      
      These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
      in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
      through percpu accessors.  This patch doesn't affect normal builds.
      
      The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit
      interesting.  DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field
      as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly.  All
      snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are
      updated to cast it to (void __percpu **).
