      net: bridge: fix vlan stats use-after-free on destruction · 9d332e69
      Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
      Syzbot reported a use-after-free of the global vlan context on port vlan
      destruction. When I added per-port vlan stats I missed the fact that the
      global vlan context can be freed before the per-port vlan rcu callback.
      There're a few different ways to deal with this, I've chosen to add a
      new private flag that is set only when per-port stats are allocated so
      we can directly check it on destruction without dereferencing the global
      context at all. The new field in net_bridge_vlan uses a hole.
      
      v2: cosmetic change, move the check to br_process_vlan_info where the
          other checks are done
      v3: add change log in the patch, add private (in-kernel only) flags in a
          hole in net_bridge_vlan struct and use that instead of mixing
          user-space flags with private flags

      net: bridge: add support for per-port vlan stats · 9163a0fc
      Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
      This patch adds an option to have per-port vlan stats instead of the
      default global stats. The option can be set only when there are no port
      vlans in the bridge since we need to allocate the stats if it is set
      when vlans are being added to ports (and respectively free them
      when being deleted). Also bump RTNL_MAX_TYPE as the bridge is the
      largest user of options. The current stats design allows us to add
      these without any changes to the fast-path, it all comes down to
      the per-vlan stats pointer which, if this option is enabled, will
      be allocated for each port vlan instead of using the global bridge-wide
      one.

      net: bridge: add support for backup port · 2756f68c
      Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
      This patch adds a new port attribute - IFLA_BRPORT_BACKUP_PORT, which
      allows to set a backup port to be used for known unicast traffic if the
      port has gone carrier down. The backup pointer is rcu protected and set
      only under RTNL, a counter is maintained so when deleting a port we know
      how many other ports reference it as a backup and we remove it from all.
      Also the pointer is in the first cache line which is hot at the time of
      the check and thus in the common case we only add one more test.
      The backup port will be used only for the non-flooding case since
      it's a part of the bridge and the flooded packets will be forwarded to it
      anyway. To remove the forwarding just send a 0/non-existing backup port.
      This is used to avoid numerous scalability problems when using MLAG most
      notably if we have thousands of fdbs one would need to change all of them
      on port carrier going down which takes too long and causes a storm of fdb
      notifications (and again when the port comes back up). In a Multi-chassis
      Link Aggregation setup usually hosts are connected to two different
      switches which act as a single logical switch. Those switches usually have
      a control and backup link between them called peerlink which might be used
      for communication in case a host loses connectivity to one of them.
      We need a fast way to failover in case a host port goes down and currently
      none of the solutions (like bond) cannot fulfill the requirements because
      the participating ports are actually the "master" devices and must have the
      same peerlink as their backup interface and at the same time all of them
      must participate in the bridge device. As Roopa noted it's normal practice
      in routing called fast re-route where a precalculated backup path is used
      when the main one is down.
      Another use case of this is with EVPN, having a single vxlan device which
      is backup of every port. Due to the nature of master devices it's not
      currently possible to use one device as a backup for many and still have
      all of them participate in the bridge (which is master itself).
      More detailed information about MLAG is available at the link below.
      https://docs.cumulusnetworks.com/display/DOCS/Multi-Chassis+Link+Aggregation+-+MLAG
      
      Further explanation and a diagram by Roopa:
      Two switches acting in a MLAG pair are connected by the peerlink
      interface which is a bridge port.
      
      the config on one of the switches looks like the below. The other
      switch also has a similar config.
      eth0 is connected to one port on the server. And the server is
      connected to both switches.
      
      br0 -- team0---eth0

      net: bridge: use rhashtable for fdbs · eb793583
      Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
      Before this patch the bridge used a fixed 256 element hash table which
      was fine for small use cases (in my tests it starts to degrade
      above 1000 entries), but it wasn't enough for medium or large
      scale deployments. Modern setups have thousands of participants in a
      single bridge, even only enabling vlans and adding a few thousand vlan
      entries will cause a few thousand fdbs to be automatically inserted per
      participating port. So we need to scale the fdb table considerably to
      cope with modern workloads, and this patch converts it to use a
      rhashtable for its operations thus improving the bridge scalability.
      Tests show the following results (10 runs each), at up to 1000 entries
      rhashtable is ~3% slower, at 2000 rhashtable is 30% faster, at 3000 it
      is 2 times faster and at 30000 it is 50 times faster.
      Obviously this happens because of the properties of the two constructs
      and is expected, rhashtable keeps pretty much a constant time even with
      10000000 entries (tested), while the fixed hash table struggles
      considerably even above 10000.
      As a side effect this also reduces the net_bridge struct size from 3248
      bytes to 1344 bytes. Also note that the key struct is 8 bytes.

      net: bridge: add notifications for the bridge dev on vlan change · 92899063
      Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
      Currently the bridge device doesn't generate any notifications upon vlan
      modifications on itself because it doesn't use the generic bridge
      notifications.
      With the recent changes we know if anything was modified in the vlan config
      thus we can generate a notification when necessary for the bridge device
      so add support to br_ifinfo_notify() similar to how other combined
      functions are done - if port is present it takes precedence, otherwise
      notify about the bridge. I've explicitly marked the locations where the
      notification should be always for the port by setting bridge to NULL.
      I've also taken the liberty to rearrange each modified function's local
      variables in reverse xmas tree as well.

      net: bridge: add per-port group_fwd_mask with less restrictions · 5af48b59
      Nikolay Aleksandrov 提交于
      We need to be able to transparently forward most link-local frames via
      tunnels (e.g. vxlan, qinq). Currently the bridge's group_fwd_mask has a
      mask which restricts the forwarding of STP and LACP, but we need to be able
      to forward these over tunnels and control that forwarding on a per-port
      basis thus add a new per-port group_fwd_mask option which only disallows
      mac pause frames to be forwarded (they're always dropped anyway).
      The patch does not change the current default situation - all of the others
      are still restricted unless configured for forwarding.
      We have successfully tested this patch with LACP and STP forwarding over
      VxLAN and qinq tunnels.
