Convert mii (link state) monitor to acquire correct locks for failover events. In particular, failovers generally require RTNL at a low level (when manipulating device MAC addresses, for example) and no other locks. The high level monitor is responsible for acquiring a known set of locks, RTNL, the bond->lock for read and the slave_lock for write, and the low level failover processing can then release appropriate locks as needed. This patch provides the high level portion. As it is undesirable to acquire RTNL for every monitor pass (which may occur as often as every 10 ms), the miimon has been converted to do conditional locking. A first pass inspects all slaves to determine if any action is required, and if so, a second pass (after acquring RTNL) is done to perform any actions (doing a complete rescan, as the situation may have changed when all locks were released).

Change locking in balance-rr transmit processing to use a free running counter to determine which slave to transmit on. Instead, a free-running counter is maintained, and modulo arithmetic used to select a slave for transmit. This removes lock operations from the TX path, and eliminates a deadlock introduced by the conversion to work queues.

Update the "don't change MAC of slaves" functionality added in previous changes to be a generic option, rather than something tied to IB devices, as it's occasionally useful for regular ethernet devices as well. Adds "fail_over_mac" option (which is automatically enabled for IB slaves), applicable only to active-backup mode. Includes documentation update. Updates bonding driver version to 3.2.0.

When bonding enslaves non Ethernet devices it takes pointers to functions in the module that owns the slaves. In this case it becomes unsafe to keep the bonding master registered after last slave was unenslaved because we don't know if the pointers are still valid. Destroying the bond when slave_cnt is zero ensures that these functions be used anymore.

Allow to enslave devices when the bonding device is not up. Over the discussion held at the previous post this seemed to be the most clean way to go, where it is not expected to cause instabilities. Normally, the bonding driver is UP before any enslavement takes place. Once a netdevice is UP, the network stack acts to have it join some multicast groups (eg the all-hosts 224.0.0.1). Now, since ether_setup() have set the bonding device type to be ARPHRD_ETHER and address len to be ETHER_ALEN, the net core code computes a wrong multicast link address. This is b/c ip_eth_mc_map() is called where for multicast joins taking place after the enslavement another ip_xxx_mc_map() is called (eg ip_ib_mc_map() when the bond type is ARPHRD_INFINIBAND) Signed-off-by: Moni Shoua <monis at voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz at voltaire.com> Acked-by: NJay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

This patch allows for enslaving netdevices which do not support the set_mac_address() function.

This patch changes some of the bond netdevice attributes and functions to be that of the active slave for the case of the enslaved device not being of ARPHRD_ETHER type. Basically it overrides those setting done by ether_setup(), which are netdevice **type** dependent and hence might be not appropriate for devices of other types. It also enforces mutual exclusion on bonding slaves from dissimilar ether types, as was concluded over the v1 discussion. IPoIB (see Documentation/infiniband/ipoib.txt) MAC address is made of a 3 bytes IB QP (Queue Pair) number and 16 bytes IB port GID (Global ID) of the port this IPoIB device is bounded to. The QP is a resource created by the IB HW and the GID is an identifier burned into the HCA (i have omitted here some details which are not important for the bonding RFC).

For the operations get-tx-csum get-sg get-tso get-ufo the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior. This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls. The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation -- a not-uncommon case. Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a later date.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: NEric W.

Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly can get confused and do the wrong thing. To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on devices that are not in the initial network namespace. As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these checks can be removed. Signed-off-by: NEric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace. It modifies the global variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace. The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument, and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument. This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces. Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents that are relevant to a single network namespace.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8797 shows that the bonding driver may produce bogus combinations of the checksum flags and SG/TSO. For example, if you bond devices with NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM you'll end up with a bonding device that has neither flag set. If both have TSO then this produces an illegal combination. The bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to deal with this. In fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch moves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both bonding and bridging. In the process I've made small adjustments such as only setting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device supports it.

During the transition to the ethtool_ops way of doing things, we supported calling the device's ->do_ioctl method to allow unconverted drivers to continue working. Those days are long behind us, all in-tree drivers use the ethtool_ops way, and so we no longer need to support this. The bonding driver is the biggest beneficiary of this; it no longer needs to call ioctl() as a fallback if ethtool_ops aren't supported. Also put a proper copyright statement on ethtool.c.

由 Jay Vosburgh 提交于
At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed then opened during the enslavement processing). This causes DAD and RS packets to be sent from the slave. These packets in turn can confuse switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be dropped). This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on the master device itself. I believe this is logically correct, as it prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the master. This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding. This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on slave devices. The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag. I inspected eql, and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but I did not test it.

Without this patch, an operation of the form "echo -bond0 > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters" would trigger a NULL pointer dereference in sysfs. I was not able to induce the failure with the non-sysfs code path, but for consistency I updated that code as well.

Network drivers which keep stats allocate their own stats structure then write a get_stats() function to return them. It would be nice if this were done by default. 1) Add a new "stats" field to "struct net_device". 2) Add a new feature field to say "this driver uses the internal one" 3) Have a default "get_stats" which returns NULL if that feature not set. 4) Change callers to check result of get_stats call for NULL, not if ->get_stats is set. This should not break backwards compatibility with older drivers, yet allow modern drivers to shed some boilerplate code. Lightly tested: works for a modified lguest network driver.

In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a failover from an active to a backup interface. If bonding then fails back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query). This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at the time of a failover. This insures that switches are kept up to date for all cases. "GOELLESCH Niels" <niels.goellesch@eurocontrol.int> originally reported this problem, and included a patch. His original patch was modified by Jay Vosburgh to additionally remove the existing IGMP flood behavior, use RCU, streamline code paths, fix trailing white space, and adjust for style.
