There is a slight policy change happening here as well. The previous code would drop the entire rest of the GSO skb if any of them got, for example, a congestion notification. That makes no sense, anything NET_XMIT_MASK and below is something like congestion or policing. And in the congestion case it doesn't even mean the packet was actually dropped. Just continue until dev_xmit_complete() evaluates to false. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY and to report new checksums verfied for use in fallback to normal path. Change GRO checksum path to track csum_level using a csum_cnt field in NAPI_GRO_CB. On GRO initialization, if ip_summed is CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt to skb->csum_level + 1. For each checksum verified, decrement NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt while its greater than zero. If a checksum is verfied and NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt == 0, we have verified a deeper checksum than originally indicated in skbuf so increment csum_level (or initialize to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY if ip_summed is CHECKSUM_NONE or CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

Currently the functionality to untag traffic on input resides as part of the vlan module and is build only when VLAN support is enabled in the kernel. When VLAN is disabled, the function vlan_untag() turns into a stub and doesn't really untag the packets. This seems to create an interesting interaction between VMs supporting checksum offloading and some network drivers. There are some drivers that do not allow the user to change tx-vlan-offload feature of the driver. These drivers also seem to assume that any VLAN-tagged traffic they transmit will have the vlan information in the vlan_tci and not in the vlan header already in the skb. When transmitting skbs that already have tagged data with partial checksum set, the checksum doesn't appear to be updated correctly by the card thus resulting in a failure to establish TCP connections. The following is a packet trace taken on the receiver where a sender is a VM with a VLAN configued. The host VM is running on doest not have VLAN support and the outging interface on the host is tg3: 10:12:43.503055 52:54:00:ae:42:3f > 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 78: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 27243, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60) 10.0.100.1.58545 > 10.0.100.10.ircu-2: Flags [S], cksum 0xdc39 (incorrect -> 0x48d9), seq 1069378582, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 4294837885 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 10:12:44.505556 52:54:00:ae:42:3f > 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), length 78: vlan 100, p 0, ethertype IPv4, (tos 0x0, ttl 64, id 27244, offset 0, flags [DF], proto TCP (6), length 60) 10.0.100.1.58545 > 10.0.100.10.ircu-2: Flags [S], cksum 0xdc39 (incorrect -> 0x44ee), seq 1069378582, win 29200, options [mss 1460,sackOK,TS val 4294838888 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0 This connection finally times out. I've only access to the TG3 hardware in this configuration thus have only tested this with TG3 driver. There are a lot of other drivers that do not permit user changes to vlan acceleration features, and I don't know if they all suffere from a similar issue. The patch attempt to fix this another way. It moves the vlan header stipping code out of the vlan module and always builds it into the kernel network core. This way, even if vlan is not supported on a virtualizatoin host, the virtual machines running on top of such host will still work with VLANs enabled.

A bug was introduced in NETDEV_CHANGE notifier sequence causing the arp table to be sometimes spuriously cleared (including manual arp entries marked permanent), upon network link carrier changes. The changed argument for the notifier was applied only to a single caller of NETDEV_CHANGE, missing among others netdev_state_change(). So upon net_carrier events induced by the network, which are triggering a call to netdev_state_change(), arp_netdev_event() would decide whether to clear or not arp cache based on random/junk stack values (a kind of read buffer overflow).

In process_backlog the input_pkt_queue is only checked once for new packets and quota is artificially reduced to reflect precisely the number of packets on the input_pkt_queue so that the loop exits appropriately. This patches changes the behavior to be more straightforward and less convoluted. Packets are processed until either the quota is met or there are no more packets to process. This patch seems to provide a small, but noticeable performance improvement. The performance improvement is a result of staying in the process_backlog loop longer which can reduce number of IPI's.

If an MPLS packet requires segmentation then use mpls_features to determine if the software implementation should be used. As no driver advertises MPLS GSO segmentation this will always be the case. I had not noticed that this was necessary before as software MPLS GSO segmentation was already being used in my test environment. I believe that the reason for that is the skbs in question always had fragments and the driver I used does not advertise NETIF_F_FRAGLIST (which seems to be the case for most drivers). Thus software segmentation was activated by skb_gso_ok(). This introduces the overhead of an extra call to skb_network_protocol() in the case where where CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO is set and skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_NONE.

After 1e785f48 ("net: Start with correct mac_len in skb_network_protocol") skb->mac_len is used as a start of the calculation in skb_network_protocol() but that is not always correct. If skb->protocol == 8021Q/AD, usually the vlan header is already inserted in the skb (i.e. vlan reorder hdr == 0). Usually when the packet enters dev_hard_xmit it has mac_len == 0 so we take 2 bytes from the destination mac address (skb->data + VLAN_HLEN) as a type in skb_network_protocol() and return vlan_depth == 4. In the case where TSO is off, then the mac_len is set but it's == 18 (ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN), so skb_network_protocol() returns a type from inside the packet and offset == 22. Also make vlan_depth unsigned as suggested before. As suggested by Eric Dumazet, move the while() loop in the if() so we can avoid additional testing in fast path. Here are few netperf tests + debug printk's to illustrate: cat netperf.tso-on.reorder-on.bugged - Vlan -> device (reorder on, default, this case is okay) MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.3.1 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 10.00 7111.54 [ 81.605435] skb->len 65226 skb->gso_size 1448 skb->proto 0x800 skb->mac_len 0 vlan_depth 0 type 0x800 - Vlan -> device (reorder off, bad) cat netperf.tso-on.reorder-off.bugged MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 192.168.3.1 () port 0 AF_INET Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 10.00 241.35 [ 204.578332] skb->len 1518 skb->gso_size 0 skb->proto 0x8100 skb->mac_len 0 vlan_depth 4 type 0x5301 0x5301 are the last two bytes of the destination mac. And if we stop TSO, we may get even the following: [ 83.343156] skb->len 2966 skb->gso_size 1448 skb->proto 0x8100 skb->mac_len 18 vlan_depth 22 type 0xb84 Because mac_len already accounts for VLAN_HLEN.

Prior to commit fbd929f2 bonding: support QinQ for bond arp interval the arp monitoring code allowed for proper detection of devices stacked on top of vlans. Since the above commit, the code can still detect a device stacked on top of single vlan, but not a device stacked on top of Q-in-Q configuration. The search will only set the inner vlan tag if the route device is the vlan device. However, this is not always the case, as it is possible to extend the stacked configuration. With this patch it is possible to provision devices on top Q-in-Q vlan configuration that should be used as a source of ARP monitoring information. For example: ip link add link bond0 vlan10 type vlan proto 802.1q id 10 ip link add link vlan10 vlan100 type vlan proto 802.1q id 100 ip link add link vlan100 type macvlan Note: This patch limites the number of stacked VLANs to 2, just like before. The original, however had another issue in that if we had more then 2 levels of VLANs, we would end up generating incorrectly tagged traffic. This is no longer possible.

Multiple devices in the kernel can be stacked/nested and they need to know their nesting level for the purposes of lockdep. This patch provides a generic function that determines a nesting level of a particular device by its type (ex: vlan, macvlan, etc). We only care about nesting of the same type of devices. For example: eth0 <- vlan0.10 <- macvlan0 <- vlan1.20 The nesting level of vlan1.20 would be 1, since there is another vlan in the stack under it.

This patch fixes ordering of rtnl notifications during unregister_netdevice by moving RTM_DELLINK notification to until after ndo_uninit. The problem was seen with unregistering bond netdevices. bond ndo_uninit callback generates a few RTM_NEWLINK notifications for NETDEV_CHANGEADDR and NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE. This is seen mostly when the bond is deleted with slaves still enslaved to the bond. During unregister netdevice (rollback_registered_many to be specific) bond ndo_uninit is called after RTM_DELLINK notification goes out. This results in userspace seeing RTM_DELLINK followed by a couple of RTM_NEWLINK's. In userspace problem was seen with libnl. libnl cache deletes the bond when it sees RTM_DELLINK and re-adds the bond with the following RTM_NEWLINK. Resulting in a stale bond entry in libnl cache when the kernel has already deleted the bond. This patch has been tested for bond, bridges and vlan devices.
