We discovered that TCP stack could retransmit misaligned skbs if a malicious peer acknowledged sub MSS frame. This currently can happen only if output interface is non SG enabled : If SG is enabled, tcp builds headless skbs (all payload is included in fragments), so the tcp trimming process only removes parts of skb fragments, header stay aligned. Some arches cant handle misalignments, so force a head reallocation and shrink headroom to MAX_TCP_HEADER. Dont care about misaligments on x86 and PPC (or other arches setting NET_IP_ALIGN to 0) This patch introduces __pskb_copy() which can specify the headroom of new head, and pskb_copy() becomes a wrapper on top of __pskb_copy() Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

One of the thing we discussed during netdev 2011 conference was the idea to change some network drivers to allocate/populate their skb at RX completion time, right before feeding the skb to network stack. In old days, we allocated skbs when populating the RX ring. This means bringing into cpu cache sk_buff and skb_shared_info cache lines (since we clear/initialize them), then 'queue' skb->data to NIC. By the time NIC fills a frame in skb->data buffer and host can process it, cpu probably threw away the cache lines from its caches, because lot of things happened between the allocation and final use. So the deal would be to allocate only the data buffer for the NIC to populate its RX ring buffer. And use build_skb() at RX completion to attach a data buffer (now filled with an ethernet frame) to a new skb, initialize the skb_shared_info portion, and give the hot skb to network stack. build_skb() is the function to allocate an skb, caller providing the data buffer that should be attached to it. Drivers are expected to call skb_reserve() right after build_skb() to adjust skb->data to the Ethernet frame (usually skipping NET_SKB_PAD and NET_IP_ALIGN, but some drivers might add a hardware provided alignment) Data provided to build_skb() MUST have been allocated by a prior kmalloc() call, with enough room to add SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) bytes at the end of the data without corrupting incoming frame. data = kmalloc(NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + 1536 + SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)), GFP_ATOMIC); ... skb = build_skb(data); if (!skb) { recycle_data(data); } else { skb_reserve(skb, NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN); ... } Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> CC: Eilon Greenstein <eilong@broadcom.com> CC: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> CC: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> CC: Jamal Hadi Salim <hadi@mojatatu.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> CC: Thomas Graf <tgraf@infradead.org> CC: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> CC: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer. Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but injecting it with radiotap and getting the status out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and doesn't work with all hardware. To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX status option for data frame transmissions. This works similar to the existing TX timestamping in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has an int indicating ACK status (0/1). Since it is possible that at some point we will want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more than just the timestamp; keep the old constant as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard to split them up in a way that makes it possible.

The pair of functions, * skb_clone_tx_timestamp() * skb_complete_tx_timestamp() were designed to allow timestamping in PHY devices. The first function, called during the MAC driver's hard_xmit method, identifies PTP protocol packets, clones them, and gives them to the PHY device driver. The PHY driver may hold onto the packet and deliver it at a later time using the second function, which adds the packet to the socket's error queue. As pointed out by Johannes, nothing prevents the socket from disappearing while the cloned packet is sitting in the PHY driver awaiting a timestamp. This patch fixes the issue by taking a reference on the socket for each such packet. In addition, the comments regarding the usage of these function are expanded to highlight the rule that PHY drivers must use skb_complete_tx_timestamp() to release the packet, in order to release the socket reference, too. These functions first appeared in v2.6.36.

skb truesize currently accounts for sk_buff struct and part of skb head. kmalloc() roundings are also ignored. Considering that skb_shared_info is larger than sk_buff, its time to take it into account for better memory accounting. This patch introduces SKB_TRUESIZE(X) macro to centralize various assumptions into a single place. At skb alloc phase, we put skb_shared_info struct at the exact end of skb head, to allow a better use of memory (lowering number of reallocations), since kmalloc() gives us power-of-two memory blocks. Unless SLUB/SLUB debug is active, both skb->head and skb_shared_info are aligned to cache lines, as before. Note: This patch might trigger performance regressions because of misconfigured protocol stacks, hitting per socket or global memory limits that were previously not reached. But its a necessary step for a more accurate memory accounting.

This patch adds userspace buffers support in skb shared info. A new struct skb_ubuf_info is needed to maintain the userspace buffers argument and index, a callback is used to notify userspace to release the buffers once lower device has done DMA (Last reference to that skb has gone). If there is any userspace apps to reference these userspace buffers, then these userspaces buffers will be copied into kernel. This way we can prevent userspace apps from holding these userspace buffers too long. Use destructor_arg to point to the userspace buffer info; a new tx flags SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY is added for zero-copy buffer check. Signed-off-by: NShirley Ma <xma@...ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Testing of VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR does not belong in vlan_untag but rather in vlan_do_receive. Otherwise the vlan header will not be properly put on the packet in the case of vlan header accelleration. As we remove the check from vlan_check_reorder_header rename it vlan_reorder_header to keep the naming clean. Fix up the skb->pkt_type early so we don't look at the packet after adding the vlan tag, which guarantees we don't goof and look at the wrong field. Use a simple if statement instead of a complicated switch statement to decided that we need to increment rx_stats for a multicast packet. Hopefully at somepoint we will just declare the case where VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR is cleared as unsupported and remove the code. Until then this keeps it working correctly. Signed-off-by: NEric W.
