Hi. I'm trying to send big chunks of memory from application address space via TCP socket using vmsplice + splice like this mem = mmap(128Mb); vmsplice(pipe[1], mem); /* splice memory into pipe */ splice(pipe[0], tcp_socket); /* send it into network */ When I'm lucky and a huge page splices into the pipe and then into the socket _and_ client and server ends of the TCP connection are on the same host, communicating via lo, the whole connection gets stuck! The sending queue becomes full and app stops writing/splicing more into it, but the receiving queue remains empty, and that's why. The __skb_fill_page_desc observes a tail page of a huge page and erroneously propagates its page->pfmemalloc value onto socket (the pfmemalloc on tail pages contain garbage). Then this skb->pfmemalloc leaks through lo and due to the tcp_v4_rcv sk_filter if (skb->pfmemalloc && !sock_flag(sk, SOCK_MEMALLOC)) /* true */ return -ENOMEM goto release_and_discard; no packets reach the socket. Even TCP re-transmits are dropped by this, as skb cloning clones the pfmemalloc flag as well. That said, here's the proper page->pfmemalloc propagation onto socket: we must check the huge-page's head page only, other pages' pfmemalloc and mapping values do not contain what is expected in this place. However, I'm not sure whether this fix is _complete_, since pfmemalloc propagation via lo also oesn't look great. Both, bit propagation from page to skb and this check in sk_filter, were introduced by c48a11c7 (netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb), in v3.5 so Mel and stable@ are in Cc.

Chrome OS team reported a crash on a Pixel ChromeBook in TCP stack : https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=182056 commit a21d4572 (tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx path) did a poor choice adding an 'avail_size' field to skb, while what we really needed was a 'reserved_tailroom' one. It would have avoided commit 22b4a4f2 (tcp: fix retransmit of partially acked frames) and this commit.

Following patch adds GRE protocol offload handler so that skb_gso_segment() can segment GRE packets. SKB GSO CB is added to keep track of total header length so that skb_segment can push entire header. e.g. in case of GRE, skb_segment need to push inner and outer headers to every segment. New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW GRE TSO offload. Currently none of devices support it therefore GRE GSO always fall backs to software GSO.

Patch cef401de (net: fix possible wrong checksum generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type. net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation offload of such packets without the feature. Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared info tx_flags rather than gso_type. tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this. Signed-off-by: NPravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten by the user between the checksum computation and transmit. He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg(). This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be modified by the user. Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(), sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE). For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware. For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In that case the protocol driver should push the decapsulated packet up to the stack, again with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In ether case, the protocol driver should set the skb->encapsulation flag back to zero. Finally the protocol driver should have NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag set in its features.

If it does we currently discard the skb which is safe, but we don't report anything to the caller, so it can not recover by e.g. disabling zero copy.

Network device drivers can communicate a Toeplitz hash in skb->rxhash, but devices differ in their hashing capabilities. All compute a 5-tuple hash for TCP over IPv4, but for other connection-oriented protocols, they may compute only a 3-tuple. This breaks RPS load balancing, e.g., for TCP over IPv6 flows. Additionally, for GRE and other tunnels, the kernel computes a 5-tuple hash over the inner packet if possible, but devices do not. This patch recomputes the rxhash in software in all cases where it cannot be certain that a 5-tuple was computed. Device drivers can avoid recomputation by setting the skb->l4_rxhash flag. Recomputing adds cycles to each packet when RPS is enabled or the packet arrives over a tunnel. A comparison of 200x TCP_STREAM between two servers running unmodified netnext with rxhash computation in hardware vs software (using ethtool -K eth0 rxhash [on|off]) shows how much time is spent in __skb_get_rxhash in this worst case: 0.03% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash 0.03% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash 0.05% swapper [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash With 200x TCP_RR it increases to 0.10% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash 0.10% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash 0.10% netperf [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __skb_get_rxhash I considered having the patch explicitly skips recomputation when it knows that it will not improve the hash (TCP over IPv4), but that conditional complicates code without saving many cycles in practice, because it has to take place after flow dissector.

Over time, skb recycling infrastructure got litle interest and many bugs. Generic rx path skb allocation is now using page fragments for efficient GRO / TCP coalescing, and recyling a tx skb for rx path is not worth the pain. Last identified bug is that fat skbs can be recycled and it can endup using high order pages after few iterations. With help from Maxime Bizon, who pointed out that commit 87151b86 (net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom) introduced this regression for recycled skbs. Instead of fixing this bug, lets remove skb recycling. Drivers wanting really hot skbs should use build_skb() anyway, to allocate/populate sk_buff right before netif_receive_skb() Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Maxime Bizon <mbizon@freebox.fr> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The skb->pfmemalloc flag gets set to true iff during the slab allocation of data in __alloc_skb that the the PFMEMALLOC reserves were used. If page splitting is used, it is possible that pages will be allocated from the PFMEMALLOC reserve without propagating this information to the skb. This patch propagates page->pfmemalloc from pages allocated for fragments to the skb. It works by reintroducing and expanding the skb_alloc_page() API to take an skb. If the page was allocated from pfmemalloc reserves, it is automatically copied. If the driver allocates the page before the skb, it should call skb_propagate_pfmemalloc() after the skb is allocated to ensure the flag is copied properly. Failure to do so is not critical. The resulting driver may perform slower if it is used for swap-over-NBD or swap-over-NFS but it should not result in failure.

Change the skb allocation API to indicate RX usage and use this to fall back to the PFMEMALLOC reserve when needed. SKBs allocated from the reserve are tagged in skb->pfmemalloc. If an SKB is allocated from the reserve and the socket is later found to be unrelated to page reclaim, the packet is dropped so that the memory remains available for page reclaim. Network protocols are expected to recover from this packet loss.

Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming sk_sndbuf is not too big) We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain, now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance matters.

This was showing up frequently in my tests on VLAN tx, where vlan_insert_tag calls skb_cow_head(skb, VLAN_HLEN).

skb->head is currently allocated from kmalloc(). This is convenient but has the drawback the data cannot be converted to a page fragment if needed. We have three spots were it hurts : 1) GRO aggregation When a linear skb must be appended to another skb, GRO uses the frag_list fallback, very inefficient since we keep all struct sk_buff around. So drivers enabling GRO but delivering linear skbs to network stack aren't enabling full GRO power. 2) splice(socket -> pipe). We must copy the linear part to a page fragment. This kind of defeats splice() purpose (zero copy claim) 3) TCP coalescing. Recently introduced, this permits to group several contiguous segments into a single skb. This shortens queue lengths and save kernel memory, and greatly reduce probabilities of TCP collapses. This coalescing doesnt work on linear skbs (or we would need to copy data, this would be too slow) Given all these issues, the following patch introduces the possibility of having skb->head be a fragment in itself. We use a new skb flag, skb->head_frag to carry this information. build_skb() is changed to accept a frag_size argument. Drivers willing to provide a page fragment instead of kmalloc() data will set a non zero value, set to the fragment size. Then, on situations we need to convert the skb head to a frag in itself, we can check if skb->head_frag is set and avoid the copies or various fallbacks we have. This means drivers currently using frags could be updated to avoid the current skb->head allocation and reduce their memory footprint (aka skb truesize). (thats 512 or 1024 bytes saved per skb). This also makes bpf/netfilter faster since the 'first frag' will be part of skb linear part, no need to copy data.

After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices) Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048) Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb (IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1 allocations. This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit. This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or any layer needing some tailroom) avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged.

skb_add_rx_frag() API is misleading. Network skbs built with this helper can use uncharged kernel memory and eventually stress/crash machine in OOM. Add a 'truesize' parameter and then fix drivers in followup patches. Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: Wey-Yi Guy <wey-yi.w.guy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

As suggested by Ben, this adds the clarification on the usage of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY on the outgoing patch. Also add the usage description of NETIF_F_FCOE_CRC and CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for the kernel FCoE protocol driver. This is a follow-up to the following: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/147315/Signed-off-by: NYi Zou <yi.zou@intel.com> Cc: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Cc: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Cc: www.Open-FCoE.org <devel@open-fcoe.org> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then that header really should be including <linux/bug.h> and not just expecting it to be implicitly present. We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have been causing compile failures/warnings.

This is useful for testing RX handling of frames with bad CRCs. Requires driver support to actually put the packet on the wire properly. Signed-off-by: NBen Greear <greearb@candelatech.com> Tested-by: NAaron Brown <aaron.f.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

Niccolo Belli reported ipsec crashes in case we handle a frame without mac header (atm in his case) Before copying mac header, better make sure it is present.
