* | netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusionEric W. Biederman2012-09-102-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.

Mostly cleanups for the Netfilter side. They are: * Remove unnecessary RTNL locking now that we have support for namespace in nf_conntrack, from Patrick McHardy. * Cleanup to eliminate unnecessary goto in the initialization path of several Netfilter tables, from Jean Sacren. * Another cleanup from Wu Fengguang, this time to PTR_RET instead of if IS_ERR then return PTR_ERR. * Use list_for_each_entry_continue_rcu in nf_iterate, from Michael Wang. * Add pmtu_disc sysctl option to disable PMTU in their tunneling transmitter, from Julian Anastasov. * Generalize application protocol registration in IPVS and modify IPVS FTP helper to use it, from Julian Anastasov. * update Kconfig. The IPVS FTP helper depends on the Netfilter FTP helper for NAT support, from Julian Anastasov. * Add logic to update PMTU for IPIP packets in IPVS, again from Julian Anastasov. * A couple of sparse warning fixes for IPVS and Netfilter from Claudiu Ghioc and Patrick McHardy respectively. Patrick's IPv6 NAT changes will follow after this batch, I need to flush this batch first before refreshing my tree. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

|/ / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various /proc/net files sometimes report crazy timer values, expressed in clock_t units. This happens when an expired timer delta (expires - jiffies) is passed to jiffies_to_clock_t(). This function has an overflow in : return div_u64((u64)x * TICK_NSEC, NSEC_PER_SEC / USER_HZ); commit cbbc719fccdb8cb (time: Change jiffies_to_clock_t() argument type to unsigned long) only got around the problem. As we cant output negative values in /proc/net/tcp without breaking various tools, I suggest adding a jiffies_delta_to_clock_t() wrapper that caps the negative delta to a 0 value.

We need a place to have long-term storage of PMTU/redirect information which is independent of the routes themselves, yet does not get us back into a situation where we have to write to metrics or anything like that. For this we use an "next-hop exception" table in the FIB nexthops. The one thing I desperately want to avoid is having to create clone routes in the FIB trie for this purpose, because that is very expensive. However, I'm willing to entertain such an idea later if this current scheme proves to have downsides that the FIB trie variant would not have. In order to accomodate this any such scheme, we need to be able to produce a full flow key at PMTU/redirect time. That required an adjustment of the interface call-sites used to propagate these events. For a PMTU/redirect with a fully specified socket, we pass that socket and use it to produce the flow key. Otherwise we use a passed in SKB to formulate the key. There are two cases that need to be distinguished, ICMP message processing (in which case the IP header is at skb->data) and output packet processing (mostly tunnels, and in all such cases the IP header is at ip_hdr(skb)). We also have to make the code able to handle the case where the dst itself passed into the dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect} method is invalidated. This matters for calls from sockets that have cached that route. We provide a inet{,6} helper function for this purpose, and edit SCTP specially since it caches routes at the transport rather than socket level. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
| * net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()David S. Miller2012-07-171-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key. Even though we have a route in this context, we need more. In the future the routes will be without destination address, source address, etc. keying. One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc. In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage for redirects and PMTU information. This persistent storage will exist in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a full lookup flow key here. Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup() and create/update the persistent entry. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unfortunately it seems that I didn't properly test the case of an expired external querier in the recent multicast bridge series. The setup of the timer in that case is completely broken and leads to a NULL-pointer dereference. This patch fixes it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network namespace. This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the initial network namespace in other namespaces. This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for sysctls right from the start. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

NTF_MASTER sends the commands to the 'dev->master' device for parsing. Typically this will be the linux net/bridge, or open-vswitch devices. Also without any flags set the command will be handled by the master device as well so that current user space tools continue to work as expected. The NTF_SELF flag will push the PF_BRIDGE commands to the device. In the basic example below the commands are then parsed and programmed in the embedded bridge. Note if both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER bits are set then the command will be sent to both 'dev->master' and 'dev' this allows user space to easily keep the embedded bridge and software bridge in sync. There is a slight complication in the case with both flags set when an error occurs. To resolve this the rtnl handler clears the NTF_ flag in the netlink ack to indicate which sets completed successfully. The add/del handlers will abort as soon as any error occurs. To support this new net device ops were added to call into the device and the existing bridging code was refactored to use these. There should be no required changes in user space to support the current bridge behavior. A basic setup with a SR-IOV enabled NIC looks like this, veth0 veth2 | | ------------ | bridge0 | <---- software bridging ------------ / / ethx.y ethx VF PF \ \ <---- propagate FDB entries to HW \ \ -------------------- | Embedded Bridge | <---- hardware offloaded switching -------------------- In this case the embedded bridge must be managed to allow 'veth0' to communicate with 'ethx.y' correctly. At present drivers managing the embedded bridge either send frames onto the network which then get dropped by the switch OR the embedded bridge will flood these frames. With this patch we have a mechanism to manage the embedded bridge correctly from user space. This example is specific to SR-IOV but replacing the VF with another PF or dropping this into the DSA framework generates similar management issues. Examples session using the 'br'[1] tool to add, dump and then delete a mac address with a new "embedded" option and enabled ixgbe driver: # br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 dev eth3 # br fdb port mac addr flags veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:58 static veth0 9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec local eth3 00:1b:21:55:23:59 local eth3 22:35:19:ac:60:59 static veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:57 static #br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3 #br fdb port mac addr flags veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:58 static veth0 9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec local eth3 00:1b:21:55:23:59 local eth3 22:35:19:ac:60:59 static veth0 22:35:19:ac:60:57 static eth3 22:35:19:ac:60:59 local embedded #br fdb del 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3 I added a couple lines to 'br' to set the flags correctly is all. It is my opinion that the merit of this patch is now embedded and SW bridges can both be modeled correctly in user space using very nearly the same message passing.

* | bridge: Add multicast_querier toggle and disable queries by defaultHerbert Xu2012-04-153-0/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sending general queries was implemented as an optimisation to speed up convergence on start-up. In order to prevent interference with multicast routers a zero source address has to be used. Unfortunately these packets appear to cause some multicast-aware switches to misbehave, e.g., by disrupting multicast packets to us. Since the multicast snooping feature still functions without sending our own queries, this patch will change the default to not send queries. For those that need queries in order to speed up convergence on start-up, a toggle is provided to restore the previous behaviour.

* | bridge: Restart queries when last querier expiresHerbert Xu2012-04-151-1/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it stands when we discover that a real querier (one that queries with a non-zero source address) we stop querying. However, even after said querier has fallen off the edge of the earth, we will never restart querying (unless the bridge itself is restarted). This patch fixes this by kicking our own querier into gear when the timer for other queriers expire. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leavesHerbert Xu2012-04-112-85/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As it stands the bridge IGMP snooping system will respond to group leave messages with queries for remaining membership. This is both unnecessary and undesirable. First of all any multicast routers present should be doing this rather than us. What's more the queries that we send may end up upsetting other multicast snooping swithces in the system that are buggy. In fact, we can simply remove the code that send these queries because the existing membership expiry mechanism doesn't rely on them anyway. So this patch simply removes all code associated with group queries in response to group leave messages. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
