ipv6: fix a potential deadlock in do_ipv6_setsockopt()

2016-10-21T15:29:02+00:00

Baozeng reported this deadlock case:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock([  165.136033] sk_lock-AF_INET6);
                               lock([  165.136033] rtnl_mutex);
                               lock([  165.136033] sk_lock-AF_INET6);
  lock([  165.136033] rtnl_mutex);

Similar to commit 87e9f0315952
("ipv4: fix a potential deadlock in mcast getsockopt() path")
this is due to we still have a case, ipv6_sock_mc_close(),
where we acquire sk_lock before rtnl_lock. Close this deadlock
with the similar solution, that is always acquire rtnl lock first.

ipv6 addrconf: implement RFC7559 router solicitation backoff

2016-09-30T05:54:28+00:00

This implements:
  https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7559

Backoff is performed according to RFC3315 section 14:
  https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3315#section-14

We allow setting /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/router_solicitations
to a negative value meaning an unlimited number of retransmits,
and we make this the new default (inline with the RFC).

We also add a new setting:
  /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/router_solicitation_max_interval
defaulting to 1 hour (per RFC recommendation).

inet: refactor inet[6]_lookup functions to take skb

2016-02-11T08:54:14+00:00

This is a preliminary step to allow fast socket lookup of SO_REUSEPORT
groups.  Doing so with a BPF filter will require access to the
skb in question.  This change plumbs the skb (and offset to payload
data) through the call stack to the listening socket lookup
implementations where it will be used in a following patch.

soreuseport: fast reuseport UDP socket selection

2016-01-05T03:49:58+00:00

Include a struct sock_reuseport instance when a UDP socket binds to
a specific address for the first time with the reuseport flag set.
When selecting a socket for an incoming UDP packet, use the information
available in sock_reuseport if present.

This required adding an additional field to the UDP source address
equality function to differentiate between exact and wildcard matches.
The original use case allowed wildcard matches when checking for
existing port uses during bind.  The new use case of adding a socket
to a reuseport group requires exact address matching.

Performance test (using a machine with 2 CPU sockets and a total of
48 cores):  Create reuseport groups of varying size.  Use one socket
from this group per user thread (pinning each thread to a different
core) calling recvmmsg in a tight loop.  Record number of messages
received per second while saturating a 10G link.
  10 sockets: 18% increase (~2.8M -> 3.3M pkts/s)
  20 sockets: 14% increase (~2.9M -> 3.3M pkts/s)
  40 sockets: 13% increase (~3.0M -> 3.4M pkts/s)

This work is based off a similar implementation written by
Ying Cai  for implementing policy-based reuseport
selection.

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This is a fairly sizeable set of changes.  I've put them through a
  decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
  that.

  There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
  go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
  than waiting for those last few fixups.

  Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
  temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
  cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack.  We
  deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
  back if we can deprecate another one (ehca).  We also put Intel's new
  hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
  transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
  the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
  that library.

  I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
  releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
  deletions of deprecated drivers are done.

  Summary of changes for 4.3:

   - Create drivers/staging/rdma
   - Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
     tree
   - Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
   - Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
   - Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read
     and write scatter gather capabilities
   - Various iSER updates
   - Kill off unsafe usage of global mr registrations
   - Update SRP driver
   - Misc  mlx4 driver updates
   - Support for the mr_alloc verb
   - Support for a netlink interface between kernel and user space cache
     daemon to speed path record queries and route resolution
   - Ininitial support for safe hot removal of verbs devices"

net/ipv6: Export addrconf_ifid_eui48

2015-08-30T22:08:49+00:00

For loopback purposes, RoCE devices should have a default GID in the
port GID table, even when the interface is down. In order to do so,
we use the IPv6 link local address which would have been genenrated
for the related Ethernet netdevice when it goes up as a default GID.

addrconf_ifid_eui48 is used to gernerate this address, export it.

ipv6: change ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup to take net argument

2015-07-31T22:21:30+00:00

This patch adds net argument to ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup
for use cases where sk is not available (like mpls).
sk appears to be needed to get the namespace 'net' and is optional
otherwise. This patch series changes ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup
to take net argument. sk remains optional.

All callers of ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup have been modified
to pass net. I have modified them to use already available
'net' in the scope of the call. I can change them to
sock_net(sk) to avoid any unintended change in behaviour if sock
namespace is different. They dont seem to be from code inspection.
