      netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() void · 053c095a
      Johannes Berg 提交于
      Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions
      return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even
      return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb.
      
      This makes the very common pattern of
      
        if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... }
      
      be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do
      
        return nlmsg_end(...);
      
      and the caller is expected to deal with it.
      
      This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very
      common to write
      
        if (my_function(...))
          /* error condition */
      
      and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong.
      
      Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually
      needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then
      it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there.
      
      Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead
      code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did
      
      -	return nlmsg_end(...);
      +	nlmsg_end(...);
      +	return 0;
      
      I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning
      skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected
      functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared
      the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just
      be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more
      efficient version.
      
      One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present
      in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't
      check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time.
      I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to
      userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for
      every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed
      for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they
      are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

      hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators · b67bfe0d
      Sasha Levin 提交于
      I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
      
              list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
      
      The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
      
              hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
      
      Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
      they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
      exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
      
      Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
      
       - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
       - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
       - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
       was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
       - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
       properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
      
      The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

      net: make sock diag per-namespace · 51d7cccf
      Andrey Vagin 提交于
      Before this patch sock_diag works for init_net only and dumps
      information about sockets from all namespaces.
      
      This patch expands sock_diag for all name-spaces.
      It creates a netlink kernel socket for each netns and filters
      data during dumping.
      
      v2: filter accoding with netns in all places
          remove an unused variable.

      af_unix: speedup /proc/net/unix · 7123aaa3
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      /proc/net/unix has quadratic behavior, and can hold unix_table_lock for
      a while if high number of unix sockets are alive. (90 ms for 200k
      sockets...)
      
      We already have a hash table, so its quite easy to use it.
      
      Problem is unbound sockets are still hashed in a single hash slot
      (unix_socket_table[UNIX_HASH_TABLE])
      
      This patch also spreads unbound sockets to 256 hash slots, to speedup
      both /proc/net/unix and unix_diag.
      
      Time to read /proc/net/unix with 200k unix sockets :
      (time dd if=/proc/net/unix of=/dev/null bs=4k)
      
      before : 520 secs
      after : 2 secs
