5f9021cfdc rtnetlink: propagate error from dev_change_flags in do_setlink()
Unlike ifconfig, iproute doesn't report an error when setting
an interface up fails:

(example: put wireless network mac80211 interface into repeater mode
with iwconfig but do not set a peer MAC address, it should fail with
-ENOLINK)

without patch:
# ip link set wlan0 up ; echo $?
0
# 

with patch:
# ip link set wlan0 up ; echo $?
RTNETLINK answers: Link has been severed
2
# 

Propagate the return value from dev_change_flags() to fix this.

3ab5aee7fe net: Convert TCP & DCCP hash tables to use RCU / hlist_nulls
RCU was added to UDP lookups, using a fast infrastructure :
- sockets kmem_cache use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU and dont pay the
  price of call_rcu() at freeing time.
- hlist_nulls permits to use few memory barriers.

This patch uses same infrastructure for TCP/DCCP established
and timewait sockets.

Thanks to SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, no slowdown for applications
using short lived TCP connections. A followup patch, converting
rwlocks to spinlocks will even speedup this case.

__inet_lookup_established() is pretty fast now we dont have to
dirty a contended cache line (read_lock/read_unlock)

Only established and timewait hashtable are converted to RCU
(bind table and listen table are still using traditional locking)

5421ae0153 scm: fix scm_fp_list->list initialization made in wrong place
This is the next page of the scm recursion story (the commit 
f8d570a4 net: Fix recursive descent in __scm_destroy()).

In function scm_fp_dup(), the INIT_LIST_HEAD(&fpl->list) of newly
created fpl is done *before* the subsequent memcpy from the old 
structure and thus the freshly initialized list is overwritten.

But that's OK, since this initialization is not required at all,
since the fpl->list is list_add-ed at the destruction time in any
case (and is unused in other code), so I propose to drop both
initializations, rather than moving it after the memcpy.

Please, correct me if I miss something significant.

Of course, all CPUS fight on the dst_entry associated with 127.0.0.1 

Instead of first checking the refcount value, then decrement it,
we use atomic_dec_return() to help CPU to make the right memory transaction
(ie getting the cache line in exclusive mode)

dst_release() is now at the fifth position, and tbench a litle bit faster ;)

505d4f73dd net: Guaranetee the proper ordering of the loopback device. v2
I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace
cleanup.  In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have
and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going
on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the
loopback device is present.   Things like sending igmp unsubscribe
messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing
code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present.

Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard
to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the
loopback device directly from net_dev_init().    This guarantes
that the loopback device is the first device registered and
the last network device to go away.

But do it carefully so we register the loopback device after
we clear dev_boot_phase.

3b53fbf431 net: Fix recursive descent in __scm_destroy().
__scm_destroy() walks the list of file descriptors in the scm_fp_list
pointed to by the scm_cookie argument.

Those, in turn, can close sockets and invoke __scm_destroy() again.

There is nothing which limits how deeply this can occur.

The idea for how to fix this is from Linus.  Basically, we do all of
the fput()s at the top level by collecting all of the scm_fp_list
objects hit by an fput().  Inside of the initial __scm_destroy() we
keep running the list until it is empty.

0a36b345ab net: Don't leak packets when a netns is going down
I have been tracking for a while a case where when the
network namespace exits the cleanup gets stck in an
endless precessess of:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3

It turns out that if you listen on a multicast address an unsubscribe
packet is sent when the network device goes down.   If you shutdown
the network namespace without carefully cleaning up this can trigger
the unsubscribe packet to be sent over the loopback interface while
the network namespace is going down.

All of which is fine except when we drop the packet and forget to
free it leaking the skb and the dst entry attached to.  As it
turns out the dst entry hold a reference to the idev which holds
the dev and keeps everything from being cleaned up.  Yuck!

By fixing my earlier thinko and add the needed kfree_skb and everything
cleans up beautifully.

When physical devices are inside of network namespace and that
network namespace terminates we can not make them go away.  We
have to keep them and moving them to the initial network namespace
is the best we can do.

For virtual devices left in a network namespace that is exiting
we have no need to preserve them and we now have the infrastructure
that allows us to delete them.  So delete virtual devices when we
exit a network namespace.  Keeping the necessary user space clean up
after a network namespace exits much more tractable.

270acefafe net: sk_free_datagram() should use sk_mem_reclaim_partial()
I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications.

While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame
is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by
application.

One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of
sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page)
of memory for each UDP socket.

We did something very similar on TCP side in commit
9993e7d313
([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer())

A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to
use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.

9b22ea5609 net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handler
The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet

The __vlan_hwaccel_rx() function is called directly from the drivers
RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ
context:

[   27.779463] ------------[ cut here ]------------

Split hardware accelerated VLAN reception into two parts to fix this:

- __vlan_hwaccel_rx just stores the VLAN TCI and performs the VLAN
  device lookup, then calls netif_receive_skb()/netif_rx()

- vlan_hwaccel_do_receive(), which is invoked by netif_receive_skb()
  in softirq context, performs the real reception and delivery to
  packet sockets.

271b72c7fa udp: RCU handling for Unicast packets.
Goals are :

1) Optimizing handling of incoming Unicast UDP frames, so that no memory
 writes should happen in the fast path.

 Note: Multicasts and broadcasts still will need to take a lock,
 because doing a full lockless lookup in this case is difficult.

2) No expensive operations in the socket bind/unhash phases :
  - No expensive synchronize_rcu() calls.

  - No added rcu_head in socket structure, increasing memory needs,
  but more important, forcing us to use call_rcu() calls,
  that have the bad property of making sockets structure cold.
  (rcu grace period between socket freeing and its potential reuse
   make this socket being cold in CPU cache).
  David did a previous patch using call_rcu() and noticed a 20%
  impact on TCP connection rates.
  Quoting Cristopher Lameter :
   "Right. That results in cacheline cooldown. You'd want to recycle
    the object as they are cache hot on a per cpu basis. That is screwed
    up by the delayed regular rcu processing. We have seen multiple
    regressions due to cacheline cooldown.
    The only choice in cacheline hot sensitive areas is to deal with the
    complexity that comes with SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU or give up on RCU."

  - Because udp sockets are allocated from dedicated kmem_cache,
  use of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU can help here.

Theory of operation :
---------------------

As the lookup is lockfree (using rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock()),
special attention must be taken by readers and writers.

Use of SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is tricky too, because a socket can be freed,
reused, inserted in a different chain or in worst case in the same chain
while readers could do lookups in the same time.

In order to avoid loops, a reader must check each socket found in a chain
really belongs to the chain the reader was traversing. If it finds a
mismatch, lookup must start again at the begining. This *restart* loop
is the reason we had to use rdlock for the multicast case, because
we dont want to send same message several times to the same socket.

We use RCU only for fast path.
Thus, /proc/net/udp still takes spinlocks.

3891845e1e netns: Coexist with the sysfs limitations v2
To make testing of the network namespace simpler allow
the network namespace code and the sysfs code to be
compiled and run at the same time.  To do this only
virtual devices are allowed in the additional network
namespaces and those virtual devices are not placed
in the kobject tree.

Since virtual devices don't actually do anything interesting
hardware wise that needs device management there should
be no loss in keeping them out of the kobject tree and
by implication sysfs.  The gain in ease of testing
and code coverage should be significant.

    device_rename in the initial network namespace for now.

b63365a2d6 net: Fix disjunct computation of netdev features
My change

    commit e2a6b85247
    net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device

didn't do what was intended because the netdev_compute_features
function was designed for conjunctions.  So what happened was that
it would simply take the TSO status of the last constituent device.

This patch extends it to support both conjunctions and disjunctions
under the new name of netdev_increment_features.

It also adds a new function netdev_fix_features which does the
sanity checking that usually occurs upon registration.  This ensures
that the computation doesn't result in an illegal combination
since this checking is absent when the change is initiated via
ethtool.

The two users of netdev_compute_features have been converted.

58ec3b4db9 net: Fix netdev_run_todo dead-lock
Benjamin Thery tracked down a bug that explains many instances
of the error

unregister_netdevice: waiting for %s to become free. Usage count = %d

It turns out that netdev_run_todo can dead-lock with itself if
a second instance of it is run in a thread that will then free
a reference to the device waited on by the first instance.

The problem is really quite silly.  We were trying to create
parallelism where none was required.  As netdev_run_todo always
follows a RTNL section, and that todo tasks can only be added
with the RTNL held, by definition you should only need to wait
for the very ones that you've added and be done with it.

There is no need for a second mutex or spinlock.

This is exactly what the following patch does.

b6c40d68ff net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP
Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@comx.dk> reported a bug when setting a VLAN
device down that is in promiscous mode:

When the VLAN device is set down, the promiscous count on the real
device is decremented by one by vlan_dev_stop(). When removing the
promiscous flag from the VLAN device afterwards, the promiscous
count on the real device is decremented a second time by the
vlan_change_rx_flags() callback.

The root cause for this is that the ->change_rx_flags() callback is
invoked while the device is down. The synchronization is meant to mirror
the behaviour of the ->set_rx_mode callbacks, meaning the ->open function
is responsible for doing a full sync on open, the ->close() function is
responsible for doing full cleanup on ->stop() and ->change_rx_flags()
is meant to do incremental changes while the device is UP.

Only invoke ->change_rx_flags() while the device is UP to provide the
intended behaviour.

skb_recycle_check() checks that the skb is not shared or cloned, and
that it is linear and its head portion large enough (as determined by

This patch add support for keeping an additional character alias
associated with an network interface. This is useful for maintaining
the SNMP ifAlias value which is a user defined value. Routers use this

is just an arbitrary text label on the network device.

There are two exposed interfaces with this patch, the value can be
read/written either via netlink or sysfs.

This could be maintained just by the snmp daemon, but it is more
generally useful for other management tools, and the kernel is good
place to act as an agreed upon interface to store it.

f262b59bec net: fix scheduling of dst_gc_task by __dst_free
The dst garbage collector dst_gc_task() may not be scheduled as we
expect it to be in __dst_free().

Indeed, when the dst_gc_timer was replaced by the delayed_work
dst_gc_work, the mod_timer() call used to schedule the garbage
collector at an earlier date was replaced by a schedule_delayed_work()
(see commit 86bba269d0).

But, the behaviour of mod_timer() and schedule_delayed_work() is
different in the way they handle the delay. 

mod_timer() stops the timer and re-arm it with the new given delay,
whereas schedule_delayed_work() only check if the work is already
queued in the workqueue (and queue it (with delay) if it is not)
BUT it does NOT take into account the new delay (even if the new delay
is earlier in time).
schedule_delayed_work() returns 0 if it didn't queue the work,
but we don't check the return code in __dst_free().

If I understand the code in __dst_free() correctly, we want dst_gc_task
to be queued after DST_GC_INC jiffies if we pass the test (and not in
some undetermined time in the future), so I think we should add a call
to cancel_delayed_work() before schedule_delayed_work(). Patch below.

Or we should at least test the return code of schedule_delayed_work(),
and reset the values of dst_garbage.timer_inc and dst_garbage.timer_expires
back to their former values if schedule_delayed_work() failed.
Otherwise the subsequent calls to __dst_free will test the wrong values
and assume wrong thing about when the garbage collector is supposed to
be scheduled.

dst_gc_task() also calls schedule_delayed_work() without checking
its return code (or calling cancel_scheduled_work() first), but it
should fine there: dst_gc_task is the routine of the delayed_work, so
no dst_gc_work should be pending in the queue when it's running.

is unnecessarily pessimistic since even on devices that do not

with TSO off.

This patch enables TSO if at least on constituent device supports
it in hardware.

The direct beneficiaries will be virtualisation that uses bridging
since this means that TSO will always be enabled for communication

195648bbc5 pkt_sched: Prevent livelock in TX queue running.
If dev_deactivate() is trying to quiesce the queue, it
is theoretically possible for another cpu to livelock
trying to process that queue.  This happens because
dev_deactivate() grabs the queue spinlock as it checks
the queue state, whereas net_tx_action() does a trylock
and reschedules the qdisc if it hits the lock.

This breaks the livelock by adding a check on
__QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATED to net_tx_action() when
the trylock fails.

64c00d81b5 pktgen: prevent pktgen from using bad tx queue
With the new multi-queue transmit code, it is possible to accidentally
make pktgen pick a non-existing tx queue simply by using a stale
script to drive pktgen.  Access to this non-existing tx queue will
then trigger a bad memory access and kill the machine.

For example, setting "queue_map_max 2" will cause my machine to die
when accessing a garbage spinlock in the non-existing tx queue:

e6fce5b916 pktgen: multiqueue etc.
Sofar far pktgen have had a restriction to only use one device per kernel 
thread. With the new multiqueue architecture this is no longer adequate.

The patch below is an effort to remove this by in pktgen configuration 
adding a tag to  the device name a la eth0@0 etc. The tag is used for 
usual device config just as before. Also a new flag is introduced to mirror 
queue_map with sending threads smp_processor_id() QUEUE_MAP_CPU.

An example: We use 4 CPU's to send to one 10g interface (eth0)
 and we use the new tagging to send a mix of packet sizes, 64, 576 and
 1500 bytes. Also we use TX queues according to smp_processor_id()

e5a4a72d4f net: use software GSO for SG+CSUM capable netdevices
If a netdevice does not support hardware GSO, allowing the stack to
use GSO anyway and then splitting the GSO skb into MSS-sized pieces
as it is handed to the netdevice for transmitting is likely still
a win as far as throughput and/or CPU usage are concerned, since it
reduces the number of trips through the output path.

This patch enables the use of GSO on any netdevice that supports SG.
If a GSO skb is then sent to a netdevice that supports SG but does not
support hardware GSO, net/core/dev.c:dev_hard_start_xmit() will take
care of doing the necessary GSO segmentation in software.

When pneigh entries exist, but the user's read buffer isn't sufficient to
hold them all, one of the pneigh entries will be missing from the results.

In neigh_get_idx_any, the number of elements which neigh_get_idx
encountered is not correctly subtracted from the position number before
the call to pneigh_get_idx.  neigh_get_idx reduces the position by 1 for
each call to neigh_get_next, but it does not reduce it by one for the
first element (neigh_get_first). The patch alters the neigh_get_idx and
pneigh_get_idx functions to subtract one from pos, for the first element,
when pos is non-zero.

c3f26a269c netdev: Fix lockdep warnings in multiqueue configurations.
When support for multiple TX queues were added, the
netif_tx_lock() routines we converted to iterate over
all TX queues and grab each queue's spinlock.

This causes heartburn for lockdep and it's not a healthy

So modify this to use a top-level lock and a "frozen"
state for the individual TX queues.

8d50b53d66 pkt_sched: Fix OOPS on ingress qdisc add.
Bug report from Steven Jan Springl:

	Issuing the following command causes a kernel oops:
		tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress

The problem mostly stems from all of the special case handling of
ingress qdiscs.

So, to fix this, do the grafting operation the same way we do for TX
qdiscs.  Which means that dev_activate() and dev_deactivate() now do
the "qdisc_sleeping <--> qdisc" transitions on dev->rx_queue too.

Future simplifications are possible now, mainly because it is
impossible for dev_queue->{qdisc,qdisc_sleeping} to be NULL.  There
are NULL checks all over to handle the ingress qdisc special case
that used to exist before this commit.

3072367300 pkt_sched: Manage qdisc list inside of root qdisc.
Idea is from Patrick McHardy.

Instead of managing the list of qdiscs on the device level, manage it
in the root qdisc of a netdev_queue.  This solves all kinds of
visibility issues during qdisc destruction.

The way to iterate over all qdiscs of a netdev_queue is to visit
the netdev_queue->qdisc, and then traverse it's list.

The only special case is to ignore builting qdiscs at the root when
dumping or doing a qdisc_lookup().  That was not needed previously
because builtin qdiscs were not added to the device's qdisc_list.

37437bb2e1 pkt_sched: Schedule qdiscs instead of netdev_queue.
When we have shared qdiscs, packets come out of the qdiscs
for multiple transmit queues.

Therefore it doesn't make any sense to schedule the transmit
queue when logically we cannot know ahead of time the TX
queue of the SKB that the qdisc->dequeue() will give us.

Just for sanity I added a BUG check to make sure we never
get into a state where the noop_qdisc is scheduled.

eae792b722 netdev: Add netdev->select_queue() method.
Devices or device layers can set this to control the queue selection
performed by dev_pick_tx().

This function runs under RCU protection, which allows overriding
functions to have some way of synchronizing with things like dynamic
->real_num_tx_queues adjustments.

This makes the spinlock prefetch in dev_queue_xmit() a little bit
less effective, but that's the price right now for correctness.

fd2ea0a79f net: Use queue aware tests throughout.
This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking
and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures.

Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes.  The interfaces they use such
as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero.
So everything "just works" for them.

Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a
routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(),
netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc.

pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others.

In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely
improved.  The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the
wrong queue, which is mostly harmless.  The thing to do is probably to
invoke fill_packet() earlier.

The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on
the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping.

Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of
net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx().  If we end up needing any kind of
special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here.

Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver
indicates how many TX queues are actually active.

With IGB changes from Jeff Kirsher.

e8a0464cc9 netdev: Allocate multiple queues for TX.
alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue
structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument.

Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored
through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue()
interfaces.  This makes it easy to grep the tree for all
things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device.

Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and
only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping
for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.

9a6d276e85 core: add stat to track unresolved discards in neighbor cache
in __neigh_event_send, if we have a neighbour entry which is in
NUD_INCOMPLETE state, we enqueue any outbound frames to that neighbour
to the neighbours arp_queue, which is default capped to a length of 3
skbs.  If that queue exceeds its set length, it will drop an skb on
the queue to enqueue the newly arrived skb.  This results in a drop
for which we have no statistics incremented.  This patch adds an
unresolved_discards stat to /proc/net/stat/ndisc_cache to track these
lost frames.
