      TCPCT part 1d: define TCP cookie option, extend existing struct's · 435cf559
      William Allen Simpson 提交于
      Data structures are carefully composed to require minimal additions.
      For example, the struct tcp_options_received cookie_plus variable fits
      between existing 16-bit and 8-bit variables, requiring no additional
      space (taking alignment into consideration).  There are no additions to
      tcp_request_sock, and only 1 pointer in tcp_sock.
      
      This is a significantly revised implementation of an earlier (year-old)
      patch that no longer applies cleanly, with permission of the original
      author (Adam Langley):
      
          http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/102586
      
      The principle difference is using a TCP option to carry the cookie nonce,
      instead of a user configured offset in the data.  This is more flexible and
      less subject to user configuration error.  Such a cookie option has been
      suggested for many years, and is also useful without SYN data, allowing
      several related concepts to use the same extension option.

      problems when packets are cloned and sent to multiple devices while a HW

      netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: improve out-of-sync situation in TCP tracking · c4832c7b
      Pablo Neira Ayuso 提交于
      Without this patch, if we receive a SYN packet from the client while
      the firewall is out-of-sync, we let it go through. Then, if we see
      the SYN/ACK reply coming from the server, we destroy the conntrack
      entry and drop the packet to trigger a new retransmission. Then,
      the retransmision from the client is used to start a new clean
      session.
      
      This patch improves the current handling. Basically, if we see an
      unexpected SYN packet, we annotate the TCP options. Then, if we
      see the reply SYN/ACK, this means that the firewall was indeed
      out-of-sync. Therefore, we set a clean new session from the existing
      entry based on the annotated values.
      
      This patch adds two new 8-bits fields that fit in a 16-bits gap of
      the ip_ct_tcp structure.
      
      This patch is particularly useful for conntrackd since the
      asynchronous nature of the state-synchronization allows to have
      backup nodes that are not perfect copies of the master. This helps
      to improve the recovery under some worst-case scenarios.
      
      I have tested this by creating lots of conntrack entries in wrong
      state:
      
      for ((i=1024;i<65535;i++)); do conntrack -I -p tcp -s 192.168.2.101 -d 192.168.2.2 --sport $i --dport 80 -t 800 --state ESTABLISHED -u ASSURED,SEEN_REPLY; done
      
      Then, I make some TCP connections:
      
      $ echo GET / | nc 192.168.2.2 80
      
      The events show the result:

      CacheFiles: Catch an overly long wait for an old active object · fee096de
      David Howells 提交于
      Catch an overly long wait for an old, dying active object when we want to
      replace it with a new one.  The probability is that all the slow-work threads
      are hogged, and the delete can't get a look in.
      
      What we do instead is:
      
       (1) if there's nothing in the slow work queue, we sleep until either the dying
           object has finished dying or there is something in the slow work queue
           behind which we can queue our object.
      
       (2) if there is something in the slow work queue, we return ETIMEDOUT to
           fscache_lookup_object(), which then puts us back on the slow work queue,
           presumably behind the deletion that we're blocked by.  We are then
           deferred for a while until we work our way back through the queue -
           without blocking a slow-work thread unnecessarily.

      CacheFiles: Don't write a full page if there's only a partial page to cache · a17754fb
      David Howells 提交于
      cachefiles_write_page() writes a full page to the backing file for the last
      page of the netfs file, even if the netfs file's last page is only a partial
      page.
      
      This causes the EOF on the backing file to be extended beyond the EOF of the
      netfs, and thus the backing file will be truncated by cachefiles_attr_changed()
      called from cachefiles_lookup_object().
      
      So we need to limit the write we make to the backing file on that last page
      such that it doesn't push the EOF too far.
      
      Also, if a backing file that has a partial page at the end is expanded, we
      discard the partial page and refetch it on the basis that we then have a hole
      in the file with invalid data, and should the power go out...  A better way to
      deal with this could be to record a note that the partial page contains invalid
      data until the correct data is written into it.

      FS-Cache: Start processing an object's operations on that object's death · 60d543ca
      David Howells 提交于
      Start processing an object's operations when that object moves into the DYING
      state as the object cannot be destroyed until all its outstanding operations
      have completed.
      
      Furthermore, make sure that read and allocation operations handle being woken
      up on a dead object.  Such events are recorded in the Allocs.abt and
      Retrvls.abt statistics as viewable through /proc/fs/fscache/stats.
      
      The code for waiting for object activation for the read and allocation
      operations is also extracted into its own function as it is much the same in
      all cases, differing only in the stats incremented.

      FS-Cache: Handle pages pending storage that get evicted under OOM conditions · 201a1542
      David Howells 提交于
      Handle netfs pages that the vmscan algorithm wants to evict from the pagecache
      under OOM conditions, but that are waiting for write to the cache.  Under these
      conditions, vmscan calls the releasepage() function of the netfs, asking if a

      In the above backtrace, the following is happening:
      
       (1) A page storage operation is being executed by a slow-work thread
           (fscache_write_op()).
      
       (2) FS-Cache farms the operation out to the cache to perform
           (cachefiles_write_page()).
      
       (3) CacheFiles is then calling Ext3 to perform the actual write, using Ext3's
           standard write (do_sync_write()) under KERNEL_DS directly from the netfs
           page.
      
       (4) However, for Ext3 to perform the write, it must allocate some memory, in
           particular, it must allocate at least one page cache page into which it
           can copy the data from the netfs page.
      
       (5) Under OOM conditions, the memory allocator can't immediately come up with
           a page, so it uses vmscan to find something to discard
           (try_to_free_pages()).
      
       (6) vmscan finds a clean netfs page it might be able to discard (possibly the
           one it's trying to write out).
      
       (7) The netfs is called to throw the page away (nfs_release_page()) - but it's
           called with __GFP_WAIT, so the netfs decides to wait for the store to
           complete (__fscache_wait_on_page_write()).
      
       (8) This blocks a slow-work processing thread - possibly against itself.
      
      The system ends up stuck because it can't write out any netfs pages to the
      cache without allocating more memory.
      
      To avoid this, we make FS-Cache cancel some writes that aren't in the middle of
      actually being performed.  This means that some data won't make it into the
      cache this time.  To support this, a new FS-Cache function is added
      fscache_maybe_release_page() that replaces what the netfs releasepage()
      functions used to do with respect to the cache.
      
      The decisions fscache_maybe_release_page() makes are counted and displayed
      through /proc/fs/fscache/stats on a line labelled "VmScan".  There are four
      counters provided: "nos=N" - pages that weren't pending storage; "gon=N" -
      pages that were pending storage when we first looked, but weren't by the time
      we got the object lock; "bsy=N" - pages that we ignored as they were actively
      being written when we looked; and "can=N" - pages that we cancelled the storage
      of.
      
      What I'd really like to do is alter the behaviour of the cancellation
      heuristics, depending on how necessary it is to expel pages.  If there are
      plenty of other pages that aren't waiting to be written to the cache that
      could be ejected first, then it would be nice to hold up on immediate
      cancellation of cache writes - but I don't see a way of doing that.

      FS-Cache: Fix lock misorder in fscache_write_op() · 1bccf513
      David Howells 提交于
      FS-Cache has two structs internally for keeping track of the internal state of
      a cached file: the fscache_cookie struct, which represents the netfs's state,
      and fscache_object struct, which represents the cache's state.  Each has a
      pointer that points to the other (when both are in existence), and each has a
      spinlock for pointer maintenance.
      
      Since netfs operations approach these structures from the cookie side, they get
      the cookie lock first, then the object lock.  Cache operations, on the other
      hand, approach from the object side, and get the object lock first.  It is not
      then permitted for a cache operation to get the cookie lock whilst it is
      holding the object lock lest deadlock occur; instead, it must do one of two
      things:
      
       (1) increment the cookie usage counter, drop the object lock and then get both
           locks in order, or
      
       (2) simply hold the object lock as certain parts of the cookie may not be
           altered whilst the object lock is held.
      
      It is also not permitted to follow either pointer without holding the lock at
      the end you start with.  To break the pointers between the cookie and the
      object, both locks must be held.
      
      fscache_write_op(), however, violates the locking rules: It attempts to get the
      cookie lock without (a) checking that the cookie pointer is a valid pointer,
      and (b) holding the object lock to protect the cookie pointer whilst it follows
      it.  This is so that it can access the pending page store tree without
      interference from __fscache_write_page().
      
      This is fixed by splitting the cookie lock, such that the page store tracking
      tree is protected by its own lock, and checking that the cookie pointer is
      non-NULL before we attempt to follow it whilst holding the object lock.
      
      The new lock is subordinate to both the cookie lock and the object lock, and so
      should be taken after those.

      FS-Cache: Allow the current state of all objects to be dumped · 4fbf4291

      Allow the current state of all fscache objects to be dumped by doing:

      	keyctl add user fscache:objlist "<restrictions>" @s
      
      The <restrictions> are:
      
      	K	Show hexdump of object key (don't show if not given)
      	A	Show hexdump of object aux data (don't show if not given)

      	C	Show objects that have a cookie
      	c	Show objects that don't have a cookie
      	B	Show objects that are busy
      	b	Show objects that aren't busy
      	W	Show objects that have pending writes
      	w	Show objects that don't have pending writes
      	R	Show objects that have outstanding reads

      	S	Show objects that have slow work queued
      	s	Show objects that don't have slow work queued

      example:
      
      	keyctl add user fscache:objlist KB @s
      
      shows objects that are busy, and lists their object keys, but does not dump
      their auxiliary data.  It also implies "CcWwRrSs", but as 'B' is given, 'b' is

      SLOW_WORK: Allow a requeueable work item to sleep till the thread is needed · 3bde31a4
      David Howells 提交于
      Add a function to allow a requeueable work item to sleep till the thread
      processing it is needed by the slow-work facility to perform other work.
      
      Sometimes a work item can't progress immediately, but must wait for the
      completion of another work item that's currently being processed by another
      slow-work thread.
      
      In some circumstances, the waiting item could instead - theoretically - put
      itself back on the queue and yield its thread back to the slow-work facility,
      thus waiting till it gets processing time again before attempting to progress.
      This would allow other work items processing time on that thread.
      
      However, this only works if there is something on the queue for it to queue
      behind - otherwise it will just get a thread again immediately, and will end
      up cycling between the queue and the thread, eating up valuable CPU time.
      
      So, slow_work_sleep_till_thread_needed() is provided such that an item can put
      itself on a wait queue that will wake it up when the event it is actually
      interested in occurs, then call this function in lieu of calling schedule().
      
      This function will then sleep until either the item's event occurs or another
      work item appears on the queue.  If another work item is queued, but the
      item's event hasn't occurred, then the work item should requeue itself and
      yield the thread back to the slow-work facility by returning.
      
      This can be used by CacheFiles for an object that is being created on one
      thread to wait for an object being deleted on another thread where there is
      nothing on the queue for the creation to go and wait behind.  As soon as an
      item appears on the queue that could be given thread time instead, CacheFiles
      can stick the creating object back on the queue and return to the slow-work
      facility - assuming the object deletion didn't also complete.

      SLOW_WORK: Allow the owner of a work item to determine if it is queued or not · 31ba99d3
      David Howells 提交于
      Add a function (slow_work_is_queued()) to permit the owner of a work item to
      determine if the item is queued or not.
      
      The work item is counted as being queued if it is actually on the queue, not
      just if it is pending.  If it is executing and pending, then it is not on the
      queue, but will rather be put back on the queue when execution finishes.
      
      This permits a caller to quickly work out if it may be able to put another,
      dependent work item on the queue behind it, or whether it will have to wait
      till that is finished.
      
      This can be used by CacheFiles to work out whether the creation a new object
      can be immediately deferred when it has to wait for an old object to be
      deleted, or whether a wait must take place.  If a wait is necessary, then the
      slow-work thread can otherwise get blocked, preventing the deletion from
      taking place.

      Johannes Berg 提交于
      A number of people have tried to add a wireless interface
      (in managed mode) to a bridge and then complained that it
      doesn't work. It cannot work, however, because in 802.11
      networks all packets need to be acknowledged and as such
      need to be sent to the right address. Promiscuous doesn't
      help here. The wireless address format used for these
      links has only space for three addresses, the
       * transmitter, which must be equal to the sender (origin)
       * receiver (on the wireless medium), which is the AP in
         the case of managed mode
       * the recipient (destination), which is on the APs local
         network segment
      
      In an IBSS, it is similar, but the receiver and recipient
      must match and the third address is used as the BSSID.
      
      To avoid such mistakes in the future, disallow adding a
      wireless interface to a bridge.
      
      Felix has recently added a four-address mode to the AP
      and client side that can be used (after negotiating that
      it is possible, which must happen out-of-band by setting
      up both sides) for bridging, so allow that case.
