David S. Miller cf91166223 net: Use non-zero allocations in dst_alloc().
Make dst_alloc() and it's users explicitly initialize the entire
entry.

The zero'ing done by kmem_cache_zalloc() was almost entirely

David S. Miller 21d8c49e01 ipv4: Call fib_select_default() only when actually necessary.
fib_select_default() is a complete NOP, and completely pointless
to invoke, when we have no more than 1 default route installed.

And this is far and away the common case.

So remember how many prefixlen==0 routes we have in the routing
table, and elide the call when we have no more than one of those.

This cuts output route creation time by 157 cycles on Niagara2+.

In order to add the new int to fib_table, we have to correct the type
of ->tb_data[] to unsigned long, otherwise the private area will be
unaligned on 64-bit systems.

OGAWA Hirofumi 1b86a58f9d ipv4: Fix "Set rt->rt_iif more sanely on output routes."
Commit 1018b5c016 ("Set rt->rt_iif more
sanely on output routes.")  breaks rt_is_{output,input}_route.

This became the cause to return "IP_PKTINFO's ->ipi_ifindex == 0".

To fix it, this does:

1) Add "int rt_route_iif;" to struct rtable

2) For input routes, always set rt_route_iif to same value as rt_iif

3) For output routes, always set rt_route_iif to zero.  Set rt_iif
   as it is done currently.

4) Change rt_is_{output,input}_route() to test rt_route_iif

ECN support incorrectly maps ECN BESTEFFORT packets to TC_PRIO_FILLER
(1) instead of TC_PRIO_BESTEFFORT (0)

This means ECN enabled flows are placed in pfifo_fast/prio low priority
band, giving ECN enabled flows [ECT(0) and CE codepoints] higher drop
probabilities.

This is rather unfortunate, given we would like ECN being more widely
used.

Hiroaki SHIMODA 46af31800b ipv4: Fix PMTU update.
On current net-next-2.6, when Linux receives ICMP Type: 3, Code: 4
(Destination unreachable (Fragmentation needed)),

  icmp_unreach
    -> ip_rt_frag_needed
         (peer->pmtu_expires is set here)
    -> tcp_v4_err
         -> do_pmtu_discovery
              -> ip_rt_update_pmtu
                   (peer->pmtu_expires is already set,
                    so check_peer_pmtu is skipped.)
                   -> check_peer_pmtu

check_peer_pmtu is skipped and MTU is not updated.

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.

David S. Miller 44713b67db ipv4: Optimize flow initialization in output route lookup.
We burn a lot of useless cycles, cpu store buffer traffic, and
memory operations memset()'ing the on-stack flow used to perform
output route lookups in __ip_route_output_key().

Only the first half of the flow object members even matter for
output route lookups in this context, specifically:

FIB rules matching cares about:

	dst, src, tos, iif, oif, mark

FIB trie lookup cares about:

	dst

FIB semantic match cares about:

	tos, scope, oif

Therefore only initialize these specific members and elide the
memset entirely.

On Niagara2 this kills about ~300 cycles from the output route
lookup path.

Likely, we can take things further, since all callers of output
route lookups essentially throw away the on-stack flow they use.
So they don't care if we use it as a scratch-pad to compute the
final flow key.

David S. Miller 2c8cec5c10 ipv4: Cache learned PMTU information in inetpeer.
The general idea is that if we learn new PMTU information, we
bump the peer genid.

This triggers the dst_ops->check() code to validate and if
necessary propagate the new PMTU value into the metrics.

Learned PMTU information self-expires.

This means that it is not necessary to kill a cached route
entry just because the PMTU information is too old.

As a consequence:

1) When the path appears unreachable (dst_ops->link_failure
   or dst_ops->negative_advice) we unwind the PMTU state if
   it is out of date, instead of killing the cached route.

   A redirected route will still be invalidated in these
   situations.

2) rt_check_expire(), rt_worker_func(), et al. are no longer
   necessary at all.

David S. Miller 6431cbc25f inet: Create a mechanism for upward inetpeer propagation into routes.
If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly
propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example
PMTU information and redirects.

The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would
be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of
sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc.

Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer
entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics
and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry.

If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this
information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that
cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry.

The facilities implemented here handle this problem.

First we create a generation ID.  When we create a cached route of any
kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment.  Any
time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path
information, we bump that generation ID.

The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event
is propagated.  If the global generation ID does not equal the one
stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached
to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found.  Now
that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the
route's generation ID too.

This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in
the inetpeer cache.  There is absolutely no need to consult cached
route information in order to maintain this information.

At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the
later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers.

David S. Miller 0c838ff1ad ipv4: Consolidate all default route selection implementations.
Both fib_trie and fib_hash have a local implementation of
fib_table_select_default().  This is completely unnecessary
code duplication.

Since we now remember the fib_table and the head of the fib
alias list of the default route, we can implement one single
generic version of this routine.

Looking at the fib_hash implementation you may get the impression
that it's possible for there to be multiple top-level routes in
the table for the default route.  The truth is, it isn't, the
insert code will only allow one entry to exist in the zero
prefix hash table, because all keys evaluate to zero and all
keys in a hash table must be unique.

Roland Dreier ec831ea72e net: Add default_mtu() methods to blackhole dst_ops
When an IPSEC SA is still being set up, __xfrm_lookup() will return
-EREMOTE and so ip_route_output_flow() will return a blackhole route.
This can happen in a sndmsg call, and after d33e455337 ("net: Abstract
default MTU metric calculation behind an accessor.") this leads to a
crash in ip_append_data() because the blackhole dst_ops have no
default_mtu() method and so dst_mtu() calls a NULL pointer.

Fix this by adding default_mtu() methods (that simply return 0, matching
the old behavior) to the blackhole dst_ops.

The IPv4 part of this patch fixes a crash that I saw when using an IPSEC
VPN; the IPv6 part is untested because I don't have an IPv6 VPN, but it
looks to be needed as well.

David S. Miller 62fa8a846d net: Implement read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics.
Routing metrics are now copy-on-write.

Initially a route entry points it's metrics at a read-only location.
If a routing table entry exists, it will point there.  Else it will
point at the all zero metric place-holder called 'dst_default_metrics'.

The writeability state of the metrics is stored in the low bits of the
metrics pointer, we have two bits left to spare if we want to store
more states.

For the initial implementation, COW is implemented simply via kmalloc.
However future enhancements will change this to place the writable
metrics somewhere else, in order to increase sharing.  Very likely
this "somewhere else" will be the inetpeer cache.

Note also that this means that metrics updates may transiently fail
if we cannot COW the metrics successfully.

But even by itself, this patch should decrease memory usage and
increase cache locality especially for routing workloads.  In those
cases the read-only metric copies stay in place and never get written
to.

TCP workloads where metrics get updated, and those rare cases where
PMTU triggers occur, will take a very slight performance hit.  But
that hit will be alleviated when the long-term writable metrics
move to a more sharable location.

Since the metrics storage went from a u32 array of RTAX_MAX entries to
what is essentially a pointer, some retooling of the dst_entry layout
was necessary.

Most importantly, we need to preserve the alignment of the reference
count so that it doesn't share cache lines with the read-mostly state,
as per Eric Dumazet's alignment assertion checks.

The only non-trivial bit here is the move of the 'flags' member into
the writeable cacheline.  This is OK since we are always accessing the
flags around the same moment when we made a modification to the
reference count.

Joel Sing 9fc3bbb4a7 ipv4/route.c: respect prefsrc for local routes
The preferred source address is currently ignored for local routes,
which results in all local connections having a src address that is the
same as the local dst address. Fix this by respecting the preferred source
address when it is provided for local routes.

This bug can be demonstrated as follows:

 # ifconfig dummy0 192.168.0.1
 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0
 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0  proto kernel  scope host  src 192.168.0.1
 # ip route change table local local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0 \
     proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1
 # ip route show table local | grep local.*dummy0
 local 192.168.0.1 dev dummy0  proto kernel  scope host  src 127.0.0.1

We now establish a local connection and verify the source IP
address selection:

 # nc -l 192.168.0.1 3128 &
 # nc 192.168.0.1 3128 &
 # netstat -ant | grep 192.168.0.1:3128.*EST

For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which

the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around
so kill that off too.

Commit "fib: RCU conversion of fib_lookup()" removed rcu_read_lock() from
__mkroute_output but left a couple of calls to rcu_read_unlock() in there.
This causes lockdep to complain that the rcu_read_unlock() call in
__ip_route_output_key causes a lock inbalance and quickly crashes the
kernel. The below fixes this for me.

Eric Dumazet ebc0ffae5d fib: RCU conversion of fib_lookup()
fib_lookup() converted to be called in RCU protected context, no
reference taken and released on a contended cache line (fib_clntref)

fib_table_lookup() and fib_semantic_match() get an additional parameter.

struct fib_info gets an rcu_head field, and is freed after an rcu grace
period.

Stress test :
(Sending 160.000.000 UDP frames on same neighbour,
IP route cache disabled, dual E5540 @2.53GHz,
32bit kernel, FIB_HASH) (about same results for FIB_TRIE)

Eric Dumazet c7d4426a98 net: introduce DST_NOCACHE flag
While doing stress tests with IP route cache disabled, and multi queue
devices, I noticed a very high contention on one rwlock used in
neighbour code.

When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high
performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the
neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on
hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test())

But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only
once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache
lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock.

Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not
inserted in route cache.

With the stress test bench, sending 160000000 frames on one neighbour,
results are :

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.

Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while.

skb_dst_drop() drops a reference only if skb dst was refcounted.

skb_dst_force() helper is used to force a refcount on dst, when skb

Given that we've had the ability to do emergency route cache rebuilds for awhile
now, based on a statistical analysis of the various hash chain lengths in the

rt_secret_interval sysctl, allowing us to rely solely on the statistical
analysis mechanism to determine the need for route cache flushes.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Guenter Roeck 5e016cbf6c ipv4: Don't drop redirected route cache entry unless PTMU actually expired
TCP sessions over IPv4 can get stuck if routers between endpoints
do not fragment packets but implement PMTU instead, and we are using
those routers because of an ICMP redirect.

Setup is as follows

       MTU1    MTU2   MTU1
    A--------B------C------D

with MTU1 > MTU2. A and D are endpoints, B and C are routers. B and C
implement PMTU and drop packets larger than MTU2 (for example because
DF is set on all packets). TCP sessions are initiated between A and D.
There is packet loss between A and D, causing frequent TCP
retransmits.

After the number of retransmits on a TCP session reaches tcp_retries1,
tcp calls dst_negative_advice() prior to each retransmit. This results
in route cache entries for the peer to be deleted in
ipv4_negative_advice() if the Path MTU is set.

If the outstanding data on an affected TCP session is larger than
MTU2, packets sent from the endpoints will be dropped by B or C, and
ICMP NEEDFRAG will be returned. A and D receive NEEDFRAG messages and
update PMTU.

Before the next retransmit, tcp will again call dst_negative_advice(),
causing the route cache entry (with correct PMTU) to be deleted. The
retransmitted packet will be larger than MTU2, causing it to be
dropped again.

This sequence repeats until the TCP session aborts or is terminated.

Problem is fixed by removing redirected route cache entries in
ipv4_negative_advice() only if the PMTU is expired.

Timo Teräs d11a4dc18b ipv4: check rt_genid in dst_check
Xfrm_dst keeps a reference to ipv4 rtable entries on each
cached bundle. The only way to renew xfrm_dst when the underlying
route has changed, is to implement dst_check for this. This is
what ipv6 side does too.

The problems started after 87c1e12b5e
("ipsec: Fix bogus bundle flowi") which fixed a bug causing xfrm_dst
to not get reused, until that all lookups always generated new
xfrm_dst with new route reference and path mtu worked. But after the
fix, the old routes started to get reused even after they were expired
causing pmtu to break (well it would occationally work if the rtable
gc had run recently and marked the route obsolete causing dst_check to
get called).

Eric Dumazet 9837638727 net: fix route cache rebuilds
We added an automatic route cache rebuilding in commit 1080d709fb
but had to correct few bugs. One of the assumption of original patch,
was that entries where kept sorted in a given way.

This assumption is known to be wrong (commit 1ddbcb005c gave an
explanation of this and corrected a leak) and expensive to respect.

Paweł Staszewski reported to me one of his machine got its routing cache
disabled after few messages like :

[ 2677.850065] Route hash chain too long!
[ 2677.850080] Adjust your secret_interval!
[82839.662993] Route hash chain too long!
[82839.662996] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.731650] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.731664] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.811881] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.811891] Adjust your secret_interval!
[155843.858209] vlan0811: 5 rebuilds is over limit, route caching
disabled
[155843.858212] Route hash chain too long!
[155843.858213] Adjust your secret_interval!

This is because rt_intern_hash() might be fooled when computing a chain
length, because multiple entries with same keys can differ because of
TOS (or mark/oif) bits.

In the rare case the fast algorithm see a too long chain, and before
taking expensive path, we call a helper function in order to not count
duplicates of same routes, that only differ with tos/mark/oif bits. This
helper works with data already in cpu cache and is not be very
expensive, despite its O(N^2) implementation.

Paweł Staszewski sucessfully tested this patch on his loaded router.

This is to be used together with switch technologies, like RFC3069,
that where the individual ports are not allowed to communicate with
each other, but they are allowed to talk to the upstream router.  As
described in RFC 3069, it is possible to allow these hosts to
communicate through the upstream router by proxy_arp'ing.

This patch basically allow proxy arp replies back to the same
interface (from which the ARP request/solicitation was received).

Tunable per device via proc "proxy_arp_pvlan":
  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*/proxy_arp_pvlan

This switch technology is known by different vendor names:
 - In RFC 3069 it is called VLAN Aggregation.
 - Cisco and Allied Telesyn call it Private VLAN.
 - Hewlett-Packard call it Source-Port filtering or port-isolation.
 - Ericsson call it MAC-Forced Forwarding (RFC Draft).

The motivation for an additional notifier in batched netdevice
notification (rt_do_flush) only needs to be called once per batch not

For further batching improvements I need a guarantee that the
netdevices are unregistered in order allowing me to unregister an all
of the network devices in a network namespace at the same time with
the guarantee that the loopback device is really and truly
unregistered last.

Additionally it appears that we moved the route cache flush after
the final synchronize_net, which seems wrong and there was no
explanation.  So I have restored the original location of the final
synchronize_net.

Neil Horman a33bc5c151 xfrm: select sane defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh
Choose saner defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh values on init

Currently, the xfrm[4|6] code has hard-coded initial gc_thresh values
(set to 1024).  Given that the ipv4 and ipv6 routing caches are sized
dynamically at boot time, the static selections can be non-sensical.
This patch dynamically selects an appropriate gc threshold based on
the corresponding main routing table size, using the assumption that
we should in the worst case be able to handle as many connections as
the routing table can.

For ipv4, the maximum route cache size is 16 * the number of hash
buckets in the route cache.  Given that xfrm4 starts garbage
collection at the gc_thresh and prevents new allocations at 2 *
gc_thresh, we set gc_thresh to half the maximum route cache size.

For ipv6, its a bit trickier.  there is no maximum route cache size,
but the ipv6 dst_ops gc_thresh is statically set to 1024.  It seems
sane to select a simmilar gc_thresh for the xfrm6 code that is half
the number of hash buckets in the v6 route cache times 16 (like the v4
code does).

Neil Horman b6280b47a7 ipv4 routing: Ensure that route cache entries are usable and reclaimable with caching is off
When route caching is disabled (rt_caching returns false), We still use route
cache entries that are created and passed into rt_intern_hash once.  These
routes need to be made usable for the one call path that holds a reference to
them, and they need to be reclaimed when they're finished with their use.  To be
made usable, they need to be associated with a neighbor table entry (which they
currently are not), otherwise iproute_finish2 just discards the packet, since we
don't know which L2 peer to send the packet to.  To do this binding, we need to
follow the path a bit higher up in rt_intern_hash, which calls
arp_bind_neighbour, but not assign the route entry to the hash table.
Currently, if caching is off, we simply assign the route to the rp pointer and
are reutrn success.  This patch associates us with a neighbor entry first.

Secondly, we need to make sure that any single use routes like this are known to
the garbage collector when caching is off.  If caching is off, and we try to
hash in a route, it will leak when its refcount reaches zero.  To avoid this,
this patch calls rt_free on the route cache entry passed into rt_intern_hash.
This places us on the gc list for the route cache garbage collector, so that
when its refcount reaches zero, it will be reclaimed (Thanks to Alexey for this
suggestion).

I've tested this on a local system here, and with these patches in place, I'm
able to maintain routed connectivity to remote systems, even if I set
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/rt_cache_rebuild_count to -1, which forces rt_caching to

Neil Horman 73e42897e8 ipv4: fix NULL pointer + success return in route lookup path
Don't drop route if we're not caching	

	I recently got a report of an oops on a route lookup.  Maxime was
testing what would happen if route caching was turned off (doing so by setting
making rt_caching always return 0), and found that it triggered an oops.  I
looked at it and found that the problem stemmed from the fact that the route
lookup routines were returning success from their lookup paths (which is good),
but never set the **rp pointer to anything (which is bad).  This happens because
in rt_intern_hash, if rt_caching returns false, we call rt_drop and return 0.
This almost emulates slient success.  What we should be doing is assigning *rp =
rt and _not_ dropping the route.  This way, during slow path lookups, when we
create a new route cache entry, we don't immediately discard it, rather we just
don't add it into the cache hash table, but we let this one lookup use it for
the purpose of this route request.  Maxime has tested and reports it prevents
the oops.  There is still a subsequent routing issue that I'm looking into
further, but I'm confident that, even if its related to this same path, this
patch makes sense to take.

Eric Dumazet 1ddbcb005c net: fix rtable leak in net/ipv4/route.c
Alexander V. Lukyanov found a regression in 2.6.29 and made a complete
analysis found in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13339
Quoted here because its a perfect one :

begin_of_quotation
 2.6.29 patch has introduced flexible route cache rebuilding. Unfortunately the
 patch has at least one critical flaw, and another problem.

 rt_intern_hash calculates rthi pointer, which is later used for new entry
 insertion. The same loop calculates cand pointer which is used to clean the
 list. If the pointers are the same, rtable leak occurs, as first the cand is
 removed then the new entry is appended to it.

 This leak leads to unregister_netdevice problem (usage count > 0).

 Another problem of the patch is that it tries to insert the entries in certain
 order, to facilitate counting of entries distinct by all but QoS parameters.
 Unfortunately, referencing an existing rtable entry moves it to list beginning,
 to speed up further lookups, so the carefully built order is destroyed.

 For the first problem the simplest patch it to set rthi=0 when rthi==cand, but
 it will also destroy the ordering.
end_of_quotation

Problematic commit is 1080d709fb
(net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded)

Trying to keep dst_entries ordered is too complex and breaks the fact that
order should depend on the frequency of use for garbage collection.

A possible fix is to make rt_intern_hash() simpler, and only makes
rt_check_expire() a litle bit smarter, being able to cope with an arbitrary
entries order. The added loop is running on cache hot data, while cpu
is prefetching next object, so should be unnoticied.

Anton Blanchard c9503e0fe0 ipv4: Limit size of route cache hash table
Right now we have no upper limit on the size of the route cache hash table.
On a 128GB POWER6 box it ends up as 32MB:

    IP route cache hash table entries: 4194304 (order: 9, 33554432 bytes)

It would be nice to cap this for memory consumption reasons, but a massive
hashtable also causes a significant spike when measuring OS jitter.

With a 32MB hashtable and 4 million entries, rt_worker_func is taking
5 ms to complete. On another system with more memory it's taking 14 ms.
Even though rt_worker_func does call cond_sched() to limit its impact,
in an HPC environment we want to keep all sources of OS jitter to a minimum.

With the patch applied we limit the number of entries to 512k which
can still be overriden by using the rt_entries boot option:

    IP route cache hash table entries: 524288 (order: 6, 4194304 bytes)

With this patch rt_worker_func now takes 0.460 ms on the same system.

Neil Horman 1080d709fb net: implement emergency route cache rebulds when gc_elasticity is exceeded
This is a patch to provide on demand route cache rebuilding.  Currently, our
route cache is rebulid periodically regardless of need.  This introduced
unneeded periodic latency.  This patch offers a better approach.  Using code
provided by Eric Dumazet, we compute the standard deviation of the average hash
bucket chain length while running rt_check_expire.  Should any given chain
length grow to larger that average plus 4 standard deviations, we trigger an
emergency hash table rebuild for that net namespace.  This allows for the common
case in which chains are well behaved and do not grow unevenly to not incur any
latency at all, while those systems (which may be being maliciously attacked),
only rebuild when the attack is detected.  This patch take 2 other factors into
account:
1) chains with multiple entries that differ by attributes that do not affect the
hash value are only counted once, so as not to unduly bias system to rebuilding
if features like QOS are heavily used
2) if rebuilding crosses a certain threshold (which is adjustable via the added
sysctl in this patch), route caching is disabled entirely for that net
namespace, since constant rebuilding is less efficient that no caching at all

Tested successfully by me.

Herbert Xu c6153b5b77 ipv4: Disable route secret interval on zero interval
Let me first state that disabling the route cache hash rebuild
should not be done without extensive analysis on the risk profile
and careful deliberation.

However, there are times when this can be done safely or for
testing.  For example, when you have mechanisms for ensuring
that offending parties do not exist in your network.

This patch lets the user disable the rebuild if the interval is
set to zero.  This also incidentally fixes a divide-by-zero error
with name-spaces.

In addition, this patch makes the effect of an interval change
immediate rather than it taking effect at the next rebuild as
is currently the case.

For the time being, here are full fixups required by ..._rotable()

flush delay is used as an external storage for net.ipv4.route.flush sysctl
entry. It is write-only.

The ctl_table->data for this entry is used once. Fix this case to point
to the stack to remove global variable. Do this to avoid additional
variable on struct net in the next patch.

Possible race (as it was before) accessing this local variable is removed

Herbert Xu 1ac06e0306 ipsec: Use the correct ip_local_out function
Because the IPsec output function xfrm_output_resume does its
own dst_output call it should always call __ip_local_output
instead of ip_local_output as the latter may invoke dst_output
directly.  Otherwise the return values from nf_hook and dst_output
may clash as they both use the value 1 but for different purposes.

When that clash occurs this can cause a packet to be used after
it has been freed which usually leads to a crash.  Because the
offending value is only returned from dst_output with qdiscs
such as HTB, this bug is normally not visible.

Thanks to Marco Berizzi for his perseverance in tracking this
down.

Eric Dumazet 29e75252da [IPV4] route cache: Introduce rt_genid for smooth cache invalidation
Current ip route cache implementation is not suited to large caches.

We can consume a lot of CPU when cache must be invalidated, since we
currently need to evict all cache entries, and this eviction is
sometimes asynchronous. min_delay & max_delay can somewhat control this
asynchronism behavior, but whole thing is a kludge, regularly triggering
infamous soft lockup messages. When entries are still in use, this also
consumes a lot of ram, filling dst_garbage.list.

A better scheme is to use a generation identifier on each entry,
so that cache invalidation can be performed by changing the table
identifier, without having to scan all entries.
No more delayed flushing, no more stalling when secret_interval expires.

Invalidated entries will then be freed at GC time (controled by
ip_rt_gc_timeout or stress), or when an invalidated entry is found
in a chain when an insert is done.
Thus we keep a normal equilibrium.

This patch :
- renames rt_hash_rnd to rt_genid (and makes it an atomic_t)
- Adds a new rt_genid field to 'struct rtable' (filling a hole on 64bit)
- Checks entry->rt_genid at appropriate places :
