      ipv4: Make rt->fl.iif tests lest obscure. · c7537967
      David S. Miller 提交于
      When we test rt->fl.iif against zero, we're seeing if it's
      an output or an input route.
      
      Make that explicit with some helper functions.

      net: get rid of rtable->idev · 72cdd1d9
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      It seems idev field in struct rtable has no special purpose, but adding
      extra atomic ops.
      
      We hold refcounts on the device itself (using percpu data, so pretty
      cheap in current kernel).
      
      infiniband case is solved using dst.dev instead of idev->dev
      
      Removal of this field means routing without route cache is now using
      shared data, percpu data, and only potential contention is a pair of
      atomic ops on struct neighbour per forwarded packet.
      
      About 5% speedup on routing test.

      percpu: add __percpu sparse annotations to net · 7d720c3e
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Add __percpu sparse annotations to net.
      
      These annotations are to make sparse consider percpu variables to be
      in a different address space and warn if accessed without going
      through percpu accessors.  This patch doesn't affect normal builds.
      
      The macro and type tricks around snmp stats make things a bit
      interesting.  DEFINE/DECLARE_SNMP_STAT() macros mark the target field
      as __percpu and SNMP_UPD_PO_STATS() macro is updated accordingly.  All
      snmp_mib_*() users which used to cast the argument to (void **) are
      updated to cast it to (void __percpu **).

      net: NETDEV_UNREGISTER_PERNET -> NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH · a5ee1551
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      The motivation for an additional notifier in batched netdevice
      notification (rt_do_flush) only needs to be called once per batch not
      once per namespace.
      
      For further batching improvements I need a guarantee that the
      netdevices are unregistered in order allowing me to unregister an all
      of the network devices in a network namespace at the same time with
      the guarantee that the loopback device is really and truly
      unregistered last.
      
      Additionally it appears that we moved the route cache flush after
      the final synchronize_net, which seems wrong and there was no
      explanation.  So I have restored the original location of the final
      synchronize_net.

      Piss-poor sysctl registration API strikes again, film at 11...
      
      What we really need is _pathname_ required to be present in already
      registered table, so that kernel could warn about bad order.  That's the
      next target for sysctl stuff (and generally saner and more explicit
      order of initialization of ipv[46] internals wouldn't hurt either).
      
      For the time being, here are full fixups required by ..._rotable()
      stuff; we make per-net sysctl sets descendents of "ro" one and make sure
      that sufficient skeleton is there before we start registering per-net
      sysctls.

      [IPV4] route cache: Introduce rt_genid for smooth cache invalidation · 29e75252
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Current ip route cache implementation is not suited to large caches.
      
      We can consume a lot of CPU when cache must be invalidated, since we
      currently need to evict all cache entries, and this eviction is
      sometimes asynchronous. min_delay & max_delay can somewhat control this
      asynchronism behavior, but whole thing is a kludge, regularly triggering
      infamous soft lockup messages. When entries are still in use, this also
      consumes a lot of ram, filling dst_garbage.list.
      
      A better scheme is to use a generation identifier on each entry,
      so that cache invalidation can be performed by changing the table
      identifier, without having to scan all entries.
      No more delayed flushing, no more stalling when secret_interval expires.
      
      Invalidated entries will then be freed at GC time (controled by
      ip_rt_gc_timeout or stress), or when an invalidated entry is found
      in a chain when an insert is done.
      Thus we keep a normal equilibrium.
      
      This patch :
      - renames rt_hash_rnd to rt_genid (and makes it an atomic_t)
      - Adds a new rt_genid field to 'struct rtable' (filling a hole on 64bit)
      - Checks entry->rt_genid at appropriate places :

      A userspace program may wish to set the mark for each packets its send
      without using the netfilter MARK target. Changing the mark can be used
      for mark based routing without netfilter or for packet filtering.
      
      It requires CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.
