* net: Fix vlan bitmask changes in EHEA driver.David S. Miller2013-04-221-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This driver uses the crummy "| foo" style, putting the logical operation at the beginning of lines. Then when the VLAN tag flag bits got changed the operator ended up at both the end and the beginning of some lines. Fix the build error by having it uniformly use the operator at the end of the line.

* net: sctp: minor: remove dead code from sctp_packetDaniel Borkmann2013-04-222-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | struct sctp_packet is currently embedded into sctp_transport or sits on the stack as 'singleton' in sctp_outq_flush(). Therefore, its member 'malloced' is always 0, thus a kfree() is never called. Because of that, we can just remove this code.

* VXLAN: Allow L2 redirection with L3 switchingDavid Stevens2013-04-221-7/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow L2 redirection when VXLAN L3 switching is enabled This patch restricts L3 switching to destination MAC addresses that are marked as routers in order to allow virtual IP appliances that do L2 redirection to function with VXLAN L3 switching enabled. We use L3 switching on VXLAN networks to avoid extra hops when the nominal router for cross-subnet traffic for a VM is remote and the ultimate destination may be local, or closer to the local node. Currently, the destination IP address takes precedence over the MAC address in all cases. Some network appliances receive packets for a virtualized IP address and redirect by changing the destination MAC address (only) to be the final destination for packet processing. VXLAN tunnel endpoints with L3 switching enabled may then overwrite this destination MAC address based on the packet IP address, resulting in potential loops and, at least, breaking L2 redirections that travel through tunnel endpoints. This patch limits L3 switching to the intended case where the original destination MAC address is a next-hop router and relies on the destination MAC address for all other cases, thus allowing L2 redirection and L3 switching to coexist peacefully.

* xen-netback: don't disconnect frontend when seeing oversize packetWei Liu2013-04-221-6/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some frontend drivers are sending packets > 64 KiB in length. This length overflows the length field in the first slot making the following slots have an invalid length. Turn this error back into a non-fatal error by dropping the packet. To avoid having the following slots having fatal errors, consume all slots in the packet. This does not reopen the security hole in XSA-39 as if the packet as an invalid number of slots it will still hit fatal error case.

* xen-netback: coalesce slots in TX path and fix regressionsWei Liu2013-04-222-51/+242
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch tries to coalesce tx requests when constructing grant copy structures. It enables netback to deal with situation when frontend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS is larger than backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS. With the help of coalescing, this patch tries to address two regressions avoid reopening the security hole in XSA-39. Regression 1. The reduction of the number of supported ring entries (slots) per packet (from 18 to 17). This regression has been around for some time but remains unnoticed until XSA-39 security fix. This is fixed by coalescing slots. Regression 2. The XSA-39 security fix turning "too many frags" errors from just dropping the packet to a fatal error and disabling the VIF. This is fixed by coalescing slots (handling 18 slots when backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS is 17) which rules out false positive (using 18 slots is legit) and dropping packets using 19 to `max_skb_slots` slots. To avoid reopening security hole in XSA-39, frontend sending packet using more than max_skb_slots is considered malicious. The behavior of netback for packet is thus: 1-18 slots: valid 19-max_skb_slots slots: drop and respond with an error max_skb_slots+ slots: fatal error max_skb_slots is configurable by admin, default value is 20. Also change variable name from "frags" to "slots" in netbk_count_requests. Please note that RX path still has dependency on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This will be fixed with separate patch.

* be2net: enable IOMMU pass through for be2netCraig Hada2013-04-221-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch sets the coherent DMA mask to 64-bit after the be2net driver has been acknowledged that the system is 64-bit DMA capable. The coherent DMA mask is examined by the Intel IOMMU driver to determine whether to allow pass through context mapping for all devices. With this patch, the be2net driver combined with be2net compatible hardware provides comparable performance to the case where vt-d is disabled. The main use-case for this change is to decrease the time necessary to copy virtual machine memory during KVM live migration instantiations. This patch was tested on a system that enables the IOMMU in non-coherent mode. Two DMA remapper issues were encountered in the previous version and both patches have been committed. commit ea2447f700cab264019b52e2b417d689e052dcfd commit 2e12bc29fc5a12242d68e11875db3dd58efad9ff Signed-off-by: Craig Hada <craig.hada@hp.com> Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* | net: socket: move ktime2ts to ktime header apiDaniel Borkmann2013-04-192-16/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, ktime2ts is a small helper function that is only used in net/socket.c. Move this helper into the ktime API as a small inline function, so that i) it's maintained together with ktime routines, and ii) also other files can make use of it. The function is named ktime_to_timespec_cond() and placed into the generic part of ktime, since we internally make use of ktime_to_timespec(). ktime_to_timespec() itself does not check the ktime variable for zero, hence, we name this function ktime_to_timespec_cond() for only a conditional conversion, and adapt its users to it.

The implementation is modelled after AF_PACKET memory mapped I/O with a few differences: - In order to perform memory mapped I/O to userspace, the kernel allocates skbs with the data area pointing to the data area of the mapped frames. All netlink subsystems assume a linear data area, so for the sake of simplicity, the mapped data area is not attached to the paged area but to skb->data. This requires introduction of a special skb alloction function that just allocates an skb head without the data area. Since this is a quite rare use case, I introduced a new function based on __alloc_skb instead of splitting it up into head and data alloction. The alternative would be to introduce an __alloc_skb_head and __alloc_skb_data function, which would actually be useful for a specific error case in memory mapped netlink, but would require a couple of extra instructions for the common skb allocation case, so it doesn't really seem worth it. In order to get the destination memory area for skb->data before message construction, memory mapped netlink I/O needs to look up the destination socket during allocation instead of during transmission because the ring is owned by the receiveing socket/process. A special skb allocation function (netlink_alloc_skb) taking the destination pid as an argument is used for this, all subsystems that want to support memory mapped I/O need to use this function, automatic fallback to the receive queue happens for unconverted subsystems. Dumps automatically use memory mapped I/O if the receiving socket has enabled it. The visible effect of looking up the destination socket during allocation instead of transmission is that message ordering in userspace might change in case allocation and transmission aren't performed atomically. This usually doesn't matter since most subsystems have a BKL-like lock like the rtnl mutex, to my knowledge the currently only existing case where it might matter is nfnetlink_queue combined with the recently introduced batched verdicts, but a) that subsystem already includes sequence numbers which allow userspace to reorder messages in case it cares to, also the reodering window is quite small and b) with memory mapped transmission batching can be performed in a subsystem indepandant manner. - AF_NETLINK contains flow control for database dumps, with regular I/O dump continuation are triggered based on the sockets receive queue space and by recvmsg() calls. Since with memory mapped I/O there are no recvmsg() calls under normal operation, this is done in netlink_poll(), under the assumption that userspace has processed all pending frames before invoking poll(), thus the ring is expected to have room for new messages. Dumps currently don't benefit as much as they could from memory mapped I/O because each single continuation requires a poll() call. A more agressive approach seems like a good idea to me, especially in case the socket is not subscribed to any multicast groups (IOW only receiving explicitly requested data). Besides that, the memory mapped netlink implementation extends the states defined by AF_PACKET between userspace and the kernel by a SKIP status, this is intended for the case that userspace wants to queue frames (specifically when using nfnetlink_queue, an IDS and stream reassembly, requested by Eric Leblond) for a longer period of time. The kernel skips over all frames marked with SKIP when looking or unused frames and only fails when not finding a free frame or when having skipped the entire ring. Also noteworthy is memory mapped sendmsg: the kernel performs validation of messages before accepting and processing them, in order to prevent userspace from changing the messages contents after validation, the kernel checks that the ring is only mapped once and the file descriptor is not shared (in order to avoid having userspace set up another mapping after the first mentioned check). If either of both is not true, the message copied to an allocated skb and processed as with regular I/O. I'd especially appreciate review of this part since I'm not really versed in memory, file and process management, The remaining interesting details are included in the changelogs of the individual patches and the documentation, so I won't repeat them here. As an example, nfnetlink_queue is convererted to support memory mapped I/O. Other subsystems that would probably benefit are nfnetlink_log, audit and maybe ISCSI, not sure. Following are some numbers collected by Florian Westphal based on a slightly older version, which included an experimental patch for the nfnetlink_queue ordering issue. === Test hardware is a 12-core machine Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 0 @ 2.00GHz ixgbe interfaces are used (i.e., multiqueue nics). irqs are distributed across the cpus. I've made several tests. The simple one consists of 3GBit UDP traffic, packets are 1500 bytes in size (i.e., no fragmentation), with a single nfqueue and the test client programs in libmnl examples directory. Packets are sent from one /24 net to another /24 net, i.e. there are a few hundred flows active at any given time. I've also tested with snort, but I disabled all rules. 6Gbit UDP traffic is generated in the snort case, and 6 nfqueues are used (i.e., 6 snorts run in parallel). I've tested with 3 different kernels, all based on 3.7.1. - 3.7.1, without the mmap patches - 3.7.1, with Patricks mmap patches - 3.7.1, with mmap patches and extended spinlock to ensure packet ids are monotonically increasing and cannot be re-ordered. This is what we currently ship in our product. [ the spinlock that is extended is the per nfqueue spinlock, it will be held from the time the netlink skb is allocated until the netlink skb is sent to userspace: http://1984.lsi.us.es/git/nf-next/commit/?h=mmap-netlink3&id=b8eb19c46650fef4e9e4fe53f367f99bbf72afc9 ] snort is normally used in "batch mode", i.e., after processing 25 packets a single "batch verdict" is sent to accept the packets seen so far. "mmap snort" means RX_RING + sendmsg(), i.e. TX_RING is not used at this time (except where noted below). One reason is that snort has a reload thread, so kernel needs to copy; also in the snort case no payload rewrite takes place, so compared to the rx path the tx path is cheap. Results: 3.7.1, without mmap patches, i.e. recv()+sendmsg() for everyone nfq-queue: 1.7 gbit out snort-recv-batch-25 5.1 gbit out snort-recv-no-batch 3.1 gbit out 3.7.1 + mmap + without extended spinlocked section nfq-queue: 1.7 gbit out (recv/sendmsg) nfq-queue-mmap: 2.4 gbit out snort-mmap-batch-25 5.6 gbit out (warning: since ids can be re-ordered, this version is "broken"). snort-recv-batch-25 5.1 gbit out snort-mmap-no-batch 4.6 gbit out (i.e., one verdict per packet) Kernel 3.7.1 + mmap + extended spinlock section: nfq-queue: 1.4 gbit out nfq-queue-mmap: 2.3 gbit out snort: 5.6 gbit out Conclusions: - The "extended spinlocked section" hurts performance in the single queue case; with 6 snorts there is no measureable slowdown. - I tried to re-write the mmap-snort to work without batch verdicts, but results were not very encouraging: kernel 3.7.1 + mmap (without extended spinlocked section): snort-mmap-batch-25 5.6 gbit out (what we currenlty ship) snort-recv-batch-25 5.1 gbit out (without using mmap) snort-mmap-batch-1 4.6 gbit out (with mmap but without batch verdicts) snort-mmap-txring-25 5.2 gbit out (with mmap but without batch verdicts) snort-mmap-txring-1 4.6 gbit out (with mmap but without batch verdicts) The difference between the last two is that in the txring-25 case, we put a verdict into the tx ring after every packet, but will only invoke sendmsg(, NULL, 0) after processing 25 packets. So the only difference is the number of sendmsg calls/context switches. So, i.o.w, kernel 3.7.1 + mmap + the extra locking crap is faster than 3.7.1 + mmap-without-extra-locking and single-verdict-per packet. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
