      tipc: enable tracepoints in tipc · b4b9771b
      Tuong Lien 提交于
      As for the sake of debugging/tracing, the commit enables tracepoints in
      TIPC along with some general trace_events as shown below. It also
      defines some 'tipc_*_dump()' functions that allow to dump TIPC object
      data whenever needed, that is, for general debug purposes, ie. not just
      for the trace_events.
      
      The following trace_events are now available:
      
      - trace_tipc_skb_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC msg & skb data,
        e.g. message type, user, droppable, skb truesize, cloned skb, etc.
      
      - trace_tipc_list_dump(): allows to trace and dump any TIPC buffers or
        queues, e.g. TIPC link transmq, socket receive queue, etc.
      
      - trace_tipc_sk_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC socket data, e.g.
        sk state, sk type, connection type, rmem_alloc, socket queues, etc.
      
      - trace_tipc_link_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC link data, e.g.
        link state, silent_intv_cnt, gap, bc_gap, link queues, etc.
      
      - trace_tipc_node_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC node data, e.g.
        node state, active links, capabilities, link entries, etc.
      
      How to use:
      Put the trace functions at any places where we want to dump TIPC data
      or events.
      
      Note:
      a) The dump functions will generate raw data only, that is, to offload
      the trace event's processing, it can require a tool or script to parse
      the data but this should be simple.
      
      b) The trace_tipc_*_dump() should be reserved for a failure cases only
      (e.g. the retransmission failure case) or where we do not expect to
      happen too often, then we can consider enabling these events by default
      since they will almost not take any effects under normal conditions,
      but once the rare condition or failure occurs, we get the dumped data
      fully for post-analysis.
      
      For other trace purposes, we can reuse these trace classes as template
      but different events.
      
      c) A trace_event is only effective when we enable it. To enable the
      TIPC trace_events, echo 1 to 'enable' files in the events/tipc/
      directory in the 'debugfs' file system. Normally, they are located at:
      
      /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/
      
      For example:
      
      To enable the tipc_link_dump event:
      
      echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/tipc_link_dump/enable
      
      To enable all the TIPC trace_events:
      
      echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable
      
      To collect the trace data:
      
      cat trace
      
      or
      
      cat trace_pipe > /trace.out &
      
      To disable all the TIPC trace_events:
      
      echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable
      
      To clear the trace buffer:
      
      echo > trace
      
      d) Like the other trace_events, the feature like 'filter' or 'trigger'
      is also usable for the tipc trace_events.

      net: switch secpath to use skb extension infrastructure · 4165079b
      Florian Westphal 提交于
      Remove skb->sp and allocate secpath storage via extension
      infrastructure.  This also reduces sk_buff by 8 bytes on x86_64.
      
      Total size of allyesconfig kernel is reduced slightly, as there is
      less inlined code (one conditional atomic op instead of two on
      skb_clone).
      
      No differences in throughput in following ipsec performance tests:
      - transport mode with aes on 10GB link
      - tunnel mode between two network namespaces with aes and null cipher

      xfrm: prefer secpath_set over secpath_dup · a84e3f53
      Florian Westphal 提交于
      secpath_set is a wrapper for secpath_dup that will not perform
      an allocation if the secpath attached to the skb has a reference count
      of one, i.e., it doesn't need to be COW'ed.
      
      Also, secpath_dup doesn't attach the secpath to the skb, it leaves
      this to the caller.
      
      Use secpath_set in places that immediately assign the return value to
      skb.
      
      This allows to remove skb->sp without touching these spots again.
      
      secpath_dup can eventually be removed in followup patch.

      xfrm: change secpath_set to return secpath struct, not error value · 0ca64da1
      Florian Westphal 提交于
      It can only return 0 (success) or -ENOMEM.
      Change return value to a pointer to secpath struct.
      
      This avoids direct access to skb->sp:
      
      err = secpath_set(skb);
      if (!err) ..
      skb->sp-> ...
      
      Becomes:
      sp = secpath_set(skb)
      if (!sp) ..
      sp-> ..
      
      This reduces noise in followup patch which is going to remove skb->sp.

      sk_buff: add skb extension infrastructure · df5042f4
      Florian Westphal 提交于
      This adds an optional extension infrastructure, with ispec (xfrm) and
      bridge netfilter as first users.
      objdiff shows no changes if kernel is built without xfrm and br_netfilter
      support.
      
      The third (planned future) user is Multipath TCP which is still
      out-of-tree.
      MPTCP needs to map logical mptcp sequence numbers to the tcp sequence
      numbers used by individual subflows.
      
      This DSS mapping is read/written from tcp option space on receive and
      written to tcp option space on transmitted tcp packets that are part of
      and MPTCP connection.
      
      Extending skb_shared_info or adding a private data field to skb fclones
      doesn't work for incoming skb, so a different DSS propagation method would
      be required for the receive side.
      
      mptcp has same requirements as secpath/bridge netfilter:
      
      1. extension memory is released when the sk_buff is free'd.
      2. data is shared after cloning an skb (clone inherits extension)
      3. adding extension to an skb will COW the extension buffer if needed.
      
      The "MPTCP upstreaming" effort adds SKB_EXT_MPTCP extension to store the
      mapping for tx and rx processing.
      
      Two new members are added to sk_buff:
      1. 'active_extensions' byte (filling a hole), telling which extensions
         are available for this skb.
         This has two purposes.
         a) avoids the need to initialize the pointer.
         b) allows to "delete" an extension by clearing its bit
         value in ->active_extensions.
      
         While it would be possible to store the active_extensions byte
         in the extension struct instead of sk_buff, there is one problem
         with this:
          When an extension has to be disabled, we can always clear the
          bit in skb->active_extensions.  But in case it would be stored in the
          extension buffer itself, we might have to COW it first, if
          we are dealing with a cloned skb.  On kmalloc failure we would
          be unable to turn an extension off.
      
      2. extension pointer, located at the end of the sk_buff.
         If the active_extensions byte is 0, the pointer is undefined,
         it is not initialized on skb allocation.
      
      This adds extra code to skb clone and free paths (to deal with
      refcount/free of extension area) but this replaces similar code that
      manages skb->nf_bridge and skb->sp structs in the followup patches of
      the series.
      
      It is possible to add support for extensions that are not preseved on
      clones/copies.
      
      To do this, it would be needed to define a bitmask of all extensions that
      need copy/cow semantics, and change __skb_ext_copy() to check
      ->active_extensions & SKB_EXT_PRESERVE_ON_CLONE, then just set
      ->active_extensions to 0 on the new clone.
      
      This isn't done here because all extensions that get added here
      need the copy/cow semantics.
      
      v2:
      Allocate entire extension space using kmem_cache.
      Upside is that this allows better tracking of used memory,
      downside is that we will allocate more space than strictly needed in
      most cases (its unlikely that all extensions are active/needed at same
      time for same skb).
      The allocated memory (except the small extension header) is not cleared,
      so no additonal overhead aside from memory usage.
      
      Avoid atomic_dec_and_test operation on skb_ext_put()
      by using similar trick as kfree_skbmem() does with fclone_ref:
      If recount is 1, there is no concurrent user and we can free right away.
