      [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious · cd40b7d3
      Denis V. Lunev 提交于
      This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
      This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
      netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced 
      asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
      
      The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
      netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
      user.
      
      Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
      and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
      pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
      may occur in the arbitrary process context.
      
      This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
      processing right in the netlink_unicast.
      
      Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
      
      EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
      drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
      processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

      [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=n · 4665079c
      Pavel Emelyanov 提交于
      With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section,
      thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before.
      Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace
      creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns
      stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot.
      
      Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls
      are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be
      merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to
      use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes"
      for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS
      is not set to save more space in memory.
      
      The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section,
      as noticed by David, since the init section will have
      references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost
      checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace
      never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I
      introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already
      done with the __init_refok.

      [NET]: Fix race when opening a proc file while a network namespace is exiting. · 077130c0
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      The problem:  proc_net files remember which network namespace the are
      against but do not remember hold a reference count (as that would pin
      the network namespace).   So we currently have a small window where
      the reference count on a network namespace may be incremented when opening
      a /proc file when it has already gone to zero.
      
      To fix this introduce maybe_get_net and get_proc_net.
      
      maybe_get_net increments the network namespace reference count only if it is
      greater then zero, ensuring we don't increment a reference count after it
      has gone to zero.
      
      get_proc_net handles all of the magic to go from a proc inode to the network
      namespace instance and call maybe_get_net on it.
      
      PROC_NET the old accessor is removed so that we don't get confused and use
      the wrong helper function.
      
      Then I fix up the callers to use get_proc_net and handle the case case
      where get_proc_net returns NULL.  In that case I return -ENXIO because
      effectively the network namespace has already gone away so the files
      we are trying to access don't exist anymore.

      [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace. · 881d966b
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
      namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
      network namespace variable, and then it picks up
      a few associated variables.  The functions:
      dev_getbyhwaddr
      dev_getfirsthwbytype
      dev_get_by_flags
      dev_get_by_name
      __dev_get_by_name
      dev_get_by_index
      __dev_get_by_index
      dev_ioctl
      dev_ethtool
      dev_load
      wireless_process_ioctl
      
      were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
      deal with it.
      
      vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
      hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
      
      So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
      affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
      multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
      simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
      namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
      stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
      
      For now the ifindex generator is left global.
      
      Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
      we will have corner case problems with migration when
      we get that far.
      
      At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
      that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
      the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
      the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
      you change namespaces, and the like.

      [NET]: Support multiple network namespaces with netlink · b4b51029
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      Each netlink socket will live in exactly one network namespace,
      this includes the controlling kernel sockets.
      
      This patch updates all of the existing netlink protocols
      to only support the initial network namespace.  Request
      by clients in other namespaces will get -ECONREFUSED.
      As they would if the kernel did not have the support for
      that netlink protocol compiled in.
      
      As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network
      namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets
      to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces.
      
      The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation
      at hash table insertion and hash table look up time.

      [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace · 457c4cbc
      Eric W. Biederman 提交于
      This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
      variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
      The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
      and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
      This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
      usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
      has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.
      
      Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
      in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
      network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
      that are relevant to a single network namespace.

      ocfs2: Allow smaller allocations during large writes · 415cb800
      Mark Fasheh 提交于
      The ocfs2 write code loops through a page much like the block code, except
      that ocfs2 allocation units can be any size, including larger than page
      size. Typically it's equal to or larger than page size - most kernels run 4k
      pages, the minimum ocfs2 allocation (cluster) size.
      
      Some changes introduced during 2.6.23 changed the way writes to pages are
      handled, and inadvertantly broke support for > 4k page size. Instead of just
      writing one cluster at a time, we now handle the whole page in one pass.
      
      This means that multiple (small) seperate allocations might happen in the
      same pass. The allocation code howver typically optimizes by getting the
      maximum which was reserved. This triggered a BUG_ON in the extend code where
      it'd ask for a single bit (for one part of a > 4k page) and get back more
      than it asked for.
      
      Fix this by providing a variant of the high level allocation function which
      allows the caller to specify a maximum. The traditional function remains and
      just calls the new one with a maximum determined from the initial
      reservation.

      signalfd simplification · b8fceee1
      Davide Libenzi 提交于
      This simplifies signalfd code, by avoiding it to remain attached to the
      sighand during its lifetime.
      
      In this way, the signalfd remain attached to the sighand only during
      poll(2) (and select and epoll) and read(2).  This also allows to remove
      all the custom "tsk == current" checks in kernel/signal.c, since
      dequeue_signal() will only be called by "current".
      
      I think this is also what Ben was suggesting time ago.
      
      The external effect of this, is that a thread can extract only its own
      private signals and the group ones.  I think this is an acceptable
      behaviour, in that those are the signals the thread would be able to
      fetch w/out signalfd.
