2011-08-06net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.David S. Miller
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons. MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.) Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly unpredictable is a very serious limitation. So the periodic regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed. We compute and use a full 32-bit sequence number. For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

2011-07-21ipv6: make fragment identifications less predictableEric Dumazet
IPv6 fragment identification generation is way beyond what we use for IPv4 : It uses a single generator. Its not scalable and allows DOS attacks. Now inetpeer is IPv6 aware, we can use it to provide a more secure and scalable frag ident generator (per destination, instead of system wide) This patch : 1) defines a new secure_ipv6_id() helper 2) extends inet_getid() to provide 32bit results 3) extends ipv6_select_ident() with a new dest parameter Reported-by: Fernando Gont <fernando@gont.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-06-08inetpeer: remove unused listEric Dumazet
Andi Kleen and Tim Chen reported huge contention on inetpeer unused_peers.lock, on memcached workload on a 40 core machine, with disabled route cache. It appears we constantly flip peers refcnt between 0 and 1 values, and we must insert/remove peers from unused_peers.list, holding a contended spinlock. Remove this list completely and perform a garbage collection on-the-fly, at lookup time, using the expired nodes we met during the tree traversal. This removes a lot of code, makes locking more standard, and obsoletes two sysctls (inet_peer_gc_mintime and inet_peer_gc_maxtime). This also removes two pointers in inet_peer structure. There is still a false sharing effect because refcnt is in first cache line of object [were the links and keys used by lookups are located], we might move it at the end of inet_peer structure to let this first cache line mostly read by cpus.

2011-05-27inetpeer: fix race in unused_list manipulationsEric Dumazet
Several crashes in cleanup_once() were reported in recent kernels. Commit d6cc1d642de9 (inetpeer: various changes) added a race in unlink_from_unused(). One way to avoid taking unused_peers.lock before doing the list_empty() test is to catch 0->1 refcnt transitions, using full barrier atomic operations variants (atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_inc_return()) instead of previous atomic_inc() and atomic_add_unless() variants. We then call unlink_from_unused() only for the owner of the 0->1 transition. Add a new atomic_add_unless_return() static helper With help from Arun Sharma.

To fix this, let check_peer_pmtu execute unconditionally. And some minor fixes 1) Avoid potential peer->pmtu_expires set to be zero. 2) In check_peer_pmtu, argument of time_before is reversed. 3) check_peer_pmtu expects peer->pmtu_orig is initialized as zero, but not initialized.

2011-03-04inetpeer: seqlock optimizationEric Dumazet
David noticed : ------------------ Eric, I was profiling the non-routing-cache case and something that stuck out is the case of calling inet_getpeer() with create==0. If an entry is not found, we have to redo the lookup under a spinlock to make certain that a concurrent writer rebalancing the tree does not "hide" an existing entry from us. This makes the case of a create==0 lookup for a not-present entry really expensive. It is on the order of 600 cpu cycles on my Niagara2. I added a hack to not do the relookup under the lock when create==0 and it now costs less than 300 cycles. This is now a pretty common operation with the way we handle COW'd metrics, so I think it's definitely worth optimizing. ----------------- One solution is to use a seqlock instead of a spinlock to protect struct inet_peer_base. After a failed avl tree lookup, we can easily detect if a writer did some changes during our lookup. Taking the lock and redo the lookup is only necessary in this case. Note: Add one private rcu_deref_locked() macro to place in one spot the access to spinlock included in seqlock. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-02-10inetpeer: Add redirect and PMTU discovery cached info.David S. Miller
Validity of the cached PMTU information is indicated by it's expiration value being non-zero, just as per dst->expires. The scheme we will use is that we will remember the pre-ICMP value held in the metrics or route entry, and then at expiration time we will restore that value. In this way PMTU expiration does not kill off the cached route as is done currently. Redirect information is permanent, or at least until another redirect is received. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-02-10inetpeer: Abstract address representation further.David S. Miller

2010-06-16inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structuresEric Dumazet
Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches. Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes. This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields, that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer. rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing.

2010-06-15inetpeer: RCU conversionEric Dumazet
inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock. It's possible to make most lookups use RCU 1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer 2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup(). 3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is needed in case we fall in a loop. 4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert. 5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase refcount, even while we hold peers.lock. 6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash. 7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup. Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form. If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed again. 8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock 9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 -> 128 bytes) In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts & tcp_ts_stamp.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.

2005-08-29[NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointersEric Dumazet
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section (read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without memory ping pongs. On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a reload.

2005-08-23[IPV4]: Fix negative timer loop with lots of ipv4 peers.Dave Johnson
From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com> Found this bug while doing some scaling testing that created 500K inet peers. peer_check_expire() in net/ipv4/inetpeer.c isn't using inet_peer_gc_mintime correctly and will end up creating an expire timer with less than the minimum duration, and even zero/negative if enough active peers are present. If >65K peers, the timer will be less than inet_peer_gc_mintime, and with >70K peers, the timer duration will reach zero and go negative. The timer handler will continue to schedule another zero/negative timer in a loop until peers can be aged. This can continue for at least a few minutes or even longer if the peers remain active due to arriving packets while the loop is occurring. Bug is present in both 2.4 and 2.6. Same patch will apply to both just fine. Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
