Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next,
they are:
1) Don't use userspace datatypes in bridge netfilter code, from
Tobin Harding.
2) Iterate only once over the expectation table when removing the
helper module, instead of once per-netns, from Florian Westphal.
3) Extra sanitization in xt_hook_ops_alloc() to return error in case
we ever pass zero hooks, xt_hook_ops_alloc():
4) Handle NFPROTO_INET from the logging core infrastructure, from
Liping Zhang.
5) Autoload loggers when TRACE target is used from rules, this doesn't
change the behaviour in case the user already selected nfnetlink_log
as preferred way to print tracing logs, also from Liping Zhang.
6) Conntrack slabs with SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN to allow rearranging fields
by cache lines, increases the size of entries in 11% per entry.
From Florian Westphal.
7) Skip zone comparison if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ZONES=n, from Florian.
8) Remove useless defensive check in nf_logger_find_get() from Shivani
Bhardwaj.
9) Remove zone extension as place it in the conntrack object, this is
always include in the hashing and we expect more intensive use of
zones since containers are in place. Also from Florian Westphal.
10) Owner match now works from any namespace, from Eric Bierdeman.
11) Make sure we only reply with TCP reset to TCP traffic from
nf_reject_ipv4, patch from Liping Zhang.
12) Introduce --nflog-size to indicate amount of network packet bytes
that are copied to userspace via log message, from Vishwanath Pai.
This obsoletes --nflog-range that has never worked, it was designed
to achieve this but it has never worked.
13) Introduce generic macros for nf_tables object generation masks.
14) Use generation mask in table, chain and set objects in nf_tables.
This allows fixes interferences with ongoing preparation phase of
the commit protocol and object listings going on at the same time.
This update is introduced in three patches, one per object.
15) Check if the object is active in the next generation for element
deactivation in the rbtree implementation, given that deactivation
happens from the commit phase path we have to observe the future
status of the object.
16) Support for deletion of just added elements in the hash set type.
17) Allow to resize hashtable from /proc entry, not only from the
obscure /sys entry that maps to the module parameter, from Florian
Westphal.
18) Get rid of NFT_BASECHAIN_DISABLED, this code is not exercised
anymore since we tear down the ruleset whenever the netdevice
goes away.
19) Support for matching inverted set lookups, from Arturo Borrero.
20) Simplify the iptables_mangle_hook() by removing a superfluous
extra branch.
21) Introduce ether_addr_equal_masked() and use it from the netfilter
codebase, from Joe Perches.
22) Remove references to "Use netfilter MARK value as routing key"
from the Netfilter Kconfig description given that this toggle
doesn't exists already for 10 years, from Moritz Sichert.
23) Introduce generic NF_INVF() and use it from the xtables codebase,
from Joe Perches.
24) Setting logger to NONE via /proc was not working unless explicit
nul-termination was included in the string. This fixes seems to
leave the former behaviour there, so we don't break backward.

The 3.xx and 4.xx synopsys gmacs have a very similar
PCS embedded module and they share almost the same registers:
for example:
AN_Control, AN_Status, AN_Advertisement, AN_Link_Partner_Ability,
AN_Expansion, TBI_Extended_Status.
Just the RGMII/SMII Control/Status register differs.
So This patch aims to reorganize and enhance the PCS support.
It removes the existent support from the dwmac1000/dwmac4_core.c
moving basic PCS functions inside a new file called: stmmac_pcs.h.
The patch also reviews the available APIs to be better shared among
different hardware and easily enhanced to support new features.

No need to restrict this to module parameter.
We export a copy of the real hash size -- when user alters the value we
allocate the new table, copy entries etc before we update the real size
to the requested one.
This is also needed because the real size is used by concurrent readers
and cannot be changed without synchronizing the conntrack generation
seqcnt.
We only allow changing this value from the initial net namespace.

Large tc dumps (tc -s {qdisc|class} sh dev ethX) done by Google BwE host
agent [1] are problematic at scale :
For each qdisc/class found in the dump, we currently lock the root qdisc
spinlock in order to get stats. Sampling stats every 5 seconds from
thousands of HTB classes is a challenge when the root qdisc spinlock is
under high pressure. Not only the dumps take time, they also slow
down the fast path (queue/dequeue packets) by 10 % to 20 % in some cases.
An audit of existing qdiscs showed that sch_fq_codel is the only qdisc
that might need the qdisc lock in fq_codel_dump_stats() and
fq_codel_dump_class_stats()
In v2 of this patch, I now use the Qdisc running seqcount to provide
consistent reads of packets/bytes counters, regardless of 32/64 bit arches.
I also changed rate estimators to use the same infrastructure
so that they no longer need to lock root qdisc lock.

Multipath route lookups should consider knowledge about next hops and not
select a hop that is known to be failed.
Example:
[h2] [h3] 15.0.0.5
| |
3| 3|
[SP1] [SP2]--+
1 2 1 2
| | /-------------+ |
| \ / |
| X |

12.0.0.2 [TOR1] 3-----------------3 [TOR2] 12.0.0.3
4 4
\ /
\ /
\ /
-------| |-----/
1 2
[TOR3]
3|
|
[h1] 12.0.0.1
host h1 with IP 12.0.0.1 has 2 paths to host h3 at 15.0.0.5:
root@h1:~# ip ro ls
...
12.0.0.0/24 dev swp1 proto kernel scope link src 12.0.0.1
15.0.0.0/16
nexthop via 12.0.0.2 dev swp1 weight 1
nexthop via 12.0.0.3 dev swp1 weight 1
...
If the link between tor3 and tor1 is down and the link between tor1
and tor2 then tor1 is effectively cut-off from h1. Yet the route lookups
in h1 are alternating between the 2 routes: ping 15.0.0.5 gets one and
ssh 15.0.0.5 gets the other. Connections that attempt to use the
12.0.0.2 nexthop fail since that neighbor is not reachable:
root@h1:~# ip neigh show
...
12.0.0.3 dev swp1 lladdr 00:02:00:00:00:1b REACHABLE
12.0.0.2 dev swp1 FAILED
...
The failed path can be avoided by considering known neighbor information
when selecting next hops. If the neighbor lookup fails we have no
knowledge about the nexthop, so give it a shot. If there is an entry
then only select the nexthop if the state is sane. This is similar to
what fib_detect_death does.
To maintain backward compatibility use of the neighbor information is
based on a new sysctl, fib_multipath_use_neigh.

Drivers/devices without their own rate control algorithm can get the
information what rates they should use from either the radiotap header of
injected frames or from the rate control algorithm. But the parsing of the
legacy rate information from the radiotap header was removed in commit
e6a9854b05 ("mac80211/drivers: rewrite the rate control API").
The removal of this feature heavily reduced the usefulness of frame
injection when wanting to simulate specific transmission behavior. Having
rate parsing together with MCS rates and retry support allows a fine
grained selection of the tx behavior of injected frames for these kind of
tests.

Some DSA drivers may or may not support multiple software bridges on top
of an hardware switch.
It is more convenient for them to access the bridge's net_device for
finer configuration.
Removing the need to craft and access a bitmask also simplifies the
code.

mmapped netlink has a number of unresolved issues:
- TX zerocopy support had to be disabled more than a year ago via
commit 4682a03586 ("netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.")
because the content of the mmapped area can change after netlink
attribute validation but before message processing.
- RX support was implemented mainly to speed up nfqueue dumping packet
payload to userspace. However, since commit ae08ce0021
("netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: zero copy support") we avoid one copy
with the socket-based interface too (via the skb_zerocopy helper).
The other problem is that skbs attached to mmaped netlink socket
behave different from normal skbs:
- they don't have a shinfo area, so all functions that use skb_shinfo()
(e.g. skb_clone) cannot be used.
- reserving headroom prevents userspace from seeing the content as
it expects message to start at skb->head.
See for instance
commit aa3a022094 ("netlink: not trim skb for mmaped socket when dump").
- skbs handed e.g. to netlink_ack must have non-NULL skb->sk, else we
crash because it needs the sk to check if a tx ring is attached.
Also not obvious, leads to non-intuitive bug fixes such as 7c7bdf359
("netfilter: nfnetlink: use original skbuff when acking batches").
mmaped netlink also didn't play nicely with the skb_zerocopy helper
used by nfqueue and openvswitch. Daniel Borkmann fixed this via
commit 6bb0fef489 ("netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue
zero-copy")' but at the cost of also needing to provide remaining
length to the allocation function.
nfqueue also has problems when used with mmaped rx netlink:
- mmaped netlink doesn't allow use of nfqueue batch verdict messages.
Problem is that in the mmap case, the allocation time also determines
the ordering in which the frame will be seen by userspace (A
allocating before B means that A is located in earlier ring slot,
but this also means that B might get a lower sequence number then A
since seqno is decided later. To fix this we would need to extend the
spinlocked region to also cover the allocation and message setup which
isn't desirable.
- nfqueue can now be configured to queue large (GSO) skbs to userspace.
Queing GSO packets is faster than having to force a software segmentation
in the kernel, so this is a desirable option. However, with a mmap based
ring one has to use 64kb per ring slot element, else mmap has to fall back
to the socket path (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY) for all large packets.
To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink
support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to
handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element.

Allow accepted sockets to derive their sk_bound_dev_if setting from the
l3mdev domain in which the packets originated. A sysctl setting is added
to control the behavior which is similar to sk_mark and
sysctl_tcp_fwmark_accept.
This effectively allow a process to have a "VRF-global" listen socket,
with child sockets bound to the VRF device in which the packet originated.
A similar behavior can be achieved using sk_mark, but a solution using marks
is incomplete as it does not handle duplicate addresses in different L3
domains/VRFs. Allowing sockets to inherit the sk_bound_dev_if from l3mdev
domain provides a complete solution.

1) The flow cache is limited by the flow cache limit which
depends on the number of cpus and the xfrm garbage collector
threshold which is independent of the number of cpus. This
leads to the fact that on systems with more than 16 cpus
we hit the xfrm garbage collector limit and refuse new
allocations, so new flows are dropped. On systems with 16
or less cpus, we hit the flowcache limit. In this case, we
shrink the flow cache instead of refusing new flows.
We increase the xfrm garbage collector threshold to INT_MAX
to get the same behaviour, independent of the number of cpus.
2) Fix some unaligned accesses on sparc systems.

3) Fix some header checks in _decode_session4. We may call
pskb_may_pull with a negative value converted to unsigened

before we call pskb_may_pull.

This patch implements the second half of RACK that uses the the most
recent transmit time among all delivered packets to detect losses.
tcp_rack_mark_lost() is called upon receiving a dubious ACK.
It then checks if an not-yet-sacked packet was sent at least
"reo_wnd" prior to the sent time of the most recently delivered.
If so the packet is deemed lost.
The "reo_wnd" reordering window starts with 1msec for fast loss
detection and changes to min-RTT/4 when reordering is observed.
We found 1msec accommodates well on tiny degree of reordering
(<3 pkts) on faster links. We use min-RTT instead of SRTT because
reordering is more of a path property but SRTT can be inflated by
self-inflicated congestion. The factor of 4 is borrowed from the
delayed early retransmit and seems to work reasonably well.
Since RACK is still experimental, it is now used as a supplemental
loss detection on top of existing algorithms. It is only effective
after the fast recovery starts or after the timeout occurs. The
fast recovery is still triggered by FACK and/or dupack threshold
instead of RACK.
We introduce a new sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_recovery for future
experiments of loss recoveries. For now RACK can be disabled by
setting it to 0.

Kathleen Nichols' algorithm for tracking the minimum RTT of a
data stream over some measurement window. It uses constant space
and constant time per update. Yet it almost always delivers
the same minimum as an implementation that has to keep all
the data in the window. The measurement window is tunable via
sysctl.net.ipv4.tcp_min_rtt_wlen with a default value of 5 minutes.
The algorithm keeps track of the best, 2nd best & 3rd best min
values, maintaining an invariant that the measurement time of
the n'th best >= n-1'th best. It also makes sure that the three
values are widely separated in the time window since that bounds
the worse case error when that data is monotonically increasing
over the window.
Upon getting a new min, we can forget everything earlier because
it has no value - the new min is less than everything else in the
window by definition and it's the most recent. So we restart fresh
on every new min and overwrites the 2nd & 3rd choices. The same
property holds for the 2nd & 3rd best.
Therefore we have to maintain two invariants to maximize the
information in the samples, one on values (1st.v <= 2nd.v <=
3rd.v) and the other on times (now-win <=1st.t <= 2nd.t <= 3rd.t <=
now). These invariants determine the structure of the code
The RTT input to the windowed filter is the minimum RTT measured
from ACK or SACK, or as the last resort from TCP timestamps.
The accessor tcp_min_rtt() returns the minimum RTT seen in the
window. ~0U indicates it is not available. The minimum is 1usec
even if the true RTT is below that.

This patch allows configuring how the source address of ICMP
redirect messages is selected; by default the old behaviour is
retained, while setting icmp_redirects_use_orig_daddr force the
usage of the destination address of the packet that caused the
redirect.
The new behaviour fits closely the RFC 5798 section 8.1.1, and fix the
following scenario:
Two machines are set up with VRRP to act as routers out of a subnet,
they have IPs x.x.x.1/24 and x.x.x.2/24, with VRRP holding on to
x.x.x.254/24.
If a host in said subnet needs to get an ICMP redirect from the VRRP
router, i.e. to reach a destination behind a different gateway, the
source IP in the ICMP redirect is chosen as the primary IP on the
interface that the packet arrived at, i.e. x.x.x.1 or x.x.x.2.
The host will then ignore said redirect, due to RFC 1122 section 3.2.2.2,
and will continue to use the wrong next-op.

The xfrm flowcache size is limited by the flowcache limit
(4096 * number of online cpus) and the xfrm garbage collector
threshold (2 * 32768), whatever is reached first. This means
that we can hit the garbage collector limit only on systems
with more than 16 cpus. On such systems we simply refuse
new allocations if we reach the limit, so new flows are dropped.
On syslems with 16 or less cpus, we hit the flowcache limit.
In this case, we shrink the flow cache instead of refusing new
flows.
We increase the xfrm garbage collector threshold to INT_MAX
to get the same behaviour, independent of the number of cpus.
The xfrm garbage collector threshold can still be set below
the flowcache limit to reduce the memory usage of the flowcache.

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next tree
in this 4.4 development cycle, they are:
1) Schedule ICMP traffic to IPVS instances, this introduces a new schedule_icmp
proc knob to enable/disable it. By default is off to retain the old
behaviour. Patchset from Alex Gartrell.
I'm also including what Alex originally said for the record:
"The configuration of ipvs at Facebook is relatively straightforward. All
ipvs instances bgp advertise a set of VIPs and the network prefers the
nearest one or uses ECMP in the event of a tie. For the uninitiated, ECMP
deterministically and statelessly load balances by hashing the packet
(usually a 5-tuple of protocol, saddr, daddr, sport, and dport) and using
that number as an index (basic hash table type logic).
The problem is that ICMP packets (which contain really important
information like whether or not an MTU has been exceeded) will get a
different hash value and may end up at a different ipvs instance. With no
information about where to route these packets, they are dropped, creating
ICMP black holes and breaking Path MTU discovery. Suddenly, my mom's
pictures can't load and I'm fielding midday calls that I want nothing to do
with.
To address this, this patch set introduces the ability to schedule icmp
packets which is gated by a sysctl net.ipv4.vs.schedule_icmp. If set to 0,
the old behavior is maintained -- otherwise ICMP packets are scheduled."
2) Add another proc entry to ignore tunneled packets to avoid routing loops
from IPVS, also from Alex.
3) Fifteen patches from Eric Biederman to:
* Stop passing nf_hook_ops as parameter to the hook and use the state hook
object instead all around the netfilter code, so only the private data
pointer is passed to the registered hook function.
* Now that we've got state->net, propagate the netns pointer to netfilter hook
clients to avoid its computation over and over again. A good example of how
this has been simplified is the former TEE target (now nf_dup infrastructure)
since it has killed the ugly pick_net() function.
There's another round of netns updates from Eric Biederman making the line. To
avoid the patchbomb again to almost all the networking mailing list (that is 84
patches) I'd suggest we send you a pull request with no patches or let me know
if you prefer a better way.

When TCP pacing was added back in linux-3.12, we chose
to apply a fixed ratio of 200 % against current rate,
to allow probing for optimal throughput even during
slow start phase, where cwnd can be doubled every other gRTT.
At Google, we found it was better applying a different ratio
while in Congestion Avoidance phase.
This ratio was set to 120 %.
We've used the normal tcp_in_slow_start() helper for a while,
then tuned the condition to select the conservative ratio
as soon as cwnd >= ssthresh/2 :
- After cwnd reduction, it is safer to ramp up more slowly,
as we approach optimal cwnd.
- Initial ramp up (ssthresh == INFINITY) still allows doubling
cwnd every other RTT.

Rocker driver tracks arp_tbl neighs to resolve IPv4 route nexthops. The
driver uses NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE for neigh adds and updates, but there is
no event when the neigh is removed from the device (such as when the device
goes admin down). This patches hooks ndo_neigh_destroy so the driver can
know when a neigh is removed from the device. In response, the driver will
purge the neigh entry from its internal tbl.
I didn't find an in-tree users of ndo_neigh_destroy, so I'm not sure if
this ndo is vestigial or if there are out-of-tree users. In any case, it
does what I need here. An alternative design would be to generate
NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE event when neigh is being destroyed, setting state to
NUD_NONE so driver knows neigh entry is dead.

disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop

RFC 4861, 6.3.4. Processing Received Router Advertisements
A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time,
and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is
unspecified. In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the
host should continue using whatever value it is already using.
If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set
its CurHopLimit variable to the received value.
So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum
hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC
standards.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-07-17
This series contains updates to igb, ixgbe, ixgbevf, i40e, bnx2x,
freescale, siena and dp83640.
Jacob provides several patches to clarify the intended way to implement
both SIOCSHWTSTAMP and ethtool's get_ts_info(). It is okay to support
the specific filters in SIOCSHWTSTAMP by upscaling them to the generic
filters.
Alex Duyck provides a igb patch to pull the time stamp from the fragment
before it gets added to the skb, to avoid a possible issue in which the
fragment can possibly be less than IGB_RX_HDR_LEN due to the time stamp
being pulled after the copybreak check. Also provides a ixgbevf patch to
fold the ixgbevf_pull_tail() call into ixgbevf_add_rx_frag(), which gives
the advantage that the fragment does not have to be modified after it is
added to the skb.
Fan provides patches for ixgbe/ixgbevf to set the receive hash type
based on receive descriptor RSS type.
Todd provides a fix for igb where on check for link on any media other
than copper was not being detected since it was looking on the incorrect
PHY page (due to the page being used gets switched before the function
to check link gets executed).

adds clarification that it is okay to support the specific filters in
SIOCSHWTSTAMP by upscaling them to the generic filters. In addition,
update the header for ethtool_ts_info to specify that drivers ought to

printk logbuf keeps various metadata and optional key=value dictionary for
structured messages, both of which are stripped when messages are handed
to regular console drivers.
It can be useful to have this metadata and dictionary available to
netconsole consumers. This obviously makes logging via netconsole more
complete and the sequence number in particular is useful in environments
where messages may be lost or reordered in transit - e.g. when netconsole
is used to collect messages in a large cluster where packets may have to
travel congested hops to reach the aggregator. The lost and reordered
messages can easily be identified and handled accordingly using the
sequence numbers.
printk recently added extended console support which can be selected by
setting CON_EXTENDED flag. From console driver side, not much changes.
The only difference is that the text passed to the write callback is
formatted the same way as /dev/kmsg.
This patch implements extended console support for netconsole which can be
enabled by either prepending "+" to a netconsole boot param entry or
echoing 1 to "extended" file in configfs. When enabled, netconsole
transmits extended log messages with headers identical to /dev/kmsg
output.
There's one complication due to message fragments. netconsole limits the
maximum message size to 1k and messages longer than that are split into
multiple fragments. As all extended console messages should carry
matching headers and be uniquely identifiable, each extended message
fragment carries full copy of the metadata and an extra header field to
identify the specific fragment. The optional header is of the form
"ncfrag=OFF/LEN" where OFF is the byte offset into the message body and
LEN is the total length.
To avoid unnecessarily making printk format extended messages, Extended
netconsole is registered with printk when the first extended netconsole is
configured.

We need to delete from offload the device externally learnded fdbs when any
one of these events happen:
1) Bridge ages out fdb. (When bridge is doing ageing vs. device doing
ageing. If device is doing ageing, it would send SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL
directly).
2) STP state change flushes fdbs on port.
3) User uses sysfs interface to flush fdbs from bridge or bridge port:
echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_DEV/bridge/flush
echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_PORT/brport/flush
4) Offload driver send event SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL to delete fdb entry.
For rocker, we can now get called to delete fdb entry in wait and nowait
contexts, so set NOWAIT flag when deleting fdb entry.

A long standing problem on busy servers is the tiny available TCP port
range (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range) and the default
sequential allocation of source ports in connect() system call.
If a host is having a lot of active TCP sessions, chances are
very high that all ports are in use by at least one flow,
and subsequent bind(0) attempts fail, or have to scan a big portion of
space to find a slot.
In this patch, I changed the starting point in __inet_hash_connect()
so that we try to favor even [1] ports, leaving odd ports for bind()
users.
We still perform a sequential search, so there is no guarantee, but
if connect() targets are very different, end result is we leave
more ports available to bind(), and we spread them all over the range,
lowering time for both connect() and bind() to find a slot.
This strategy only works well if /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
is even, ie if start/end values have different parity.
Therefore, default /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range was changed to
32768 - 60999 (instead of 32768 - 61000)
There is no change on security aspects here, only some poor hashing
schemes could be eventually impacted by this change.
[1] : The odd/even property depends on ip_local_port_range values parity

This work as a follow-up of commit f7b3bec6f5 ("net: allow setting ecn
via routing table") and adds RFC3168 section 6.1.1.1. fallback for outgoing
ECN connections. In other words, this work adds a retry with a non-ECN
setup SYN packet, as suggested from the RFC on the first timeout:
[...] A host that receives no reply to an ECN-setup SYN within the
normal SYN retransmission timeout interval MAY resend the SYN and
any subsequent SYN retransmissions with CWR and ECE cleared. [...]
Schematic client-side view when assuming the server is in tcp_ecn=2 mode,
that is, Linux default since 2009 via commit 255cac91c3 ("tcp: extend
ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN"):
1) Normal ECN-capable path:
SYN ECE CWR ----->
<----- SYN ACK ECE
ACK ----->
2) Path with broken middlebox, when client has fallback:
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
SYN ----->
<----- SYN ACK
ACK ----->
In case we would not have the fallback implemented, the middlebox drop
point would basically end up as:
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
(timeout, rtx)
In any case, it's rather a smaller percentage of sites where there would
occur such additional setup latency: it was found in end of 2014 that ~56%
of IPv4 and 65% of IPv6 servers of Alexa 1 million list would negotiate
ECN (aka tcp_ecn=2 default), 0.42% of these webservers will fail to connect
when trying to negotiate with ECN (tcp_ecn=1) due to timeouts, which the
fallback would mitigate with a slight latency trade-off. Recent related
paper on this topic:
Brian Trammell, Mirja Kühlewind, Damiano Boppart, Iain Learmonth,
Gorry Fairhurst, and Richard Scheffenegger:
"Enabling Internet-Wide Deployment of Explicit Congestion Notification."
Proc. PAM 2015, New York.
http://ecn.ethz.ch/ecn-pam15.pdf
Thus, when net.ipv4.tcp_ecn=1 is being set, the patch will perform RFC3168,
section 6.1.1.1. fallback on timeout. For users explicitly not wanting this
which can be in DC use case, we add a net.ipv4.tcp_ecn_fallback knob that
allows for disabling the fallback.
tp->ecn_flags are not being cleared in tcp_ecn_clear_syn() on output, but
rather we let tcp_ecn_rcv_synack() take that over on input path in case a
SYN ACK ECE was delayed. Thus a spurious SYN retransmission will not prevent
ECN being negotiated eventually in that case.

Seems all we want here is to avoid endless 'goto reclassify' loop.
tc_classify_compat even resets this counter when something other
than TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY is returned, so this skb-counter doesn't
break hypothetical loops induced by something other than perpetual
TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY return values.
skb_act_clone is now identical to skb_clone, so just use that.

The port key has three components - user-key, speed-part, and duplex-part.
The LSBit is for the duplex-part, next 5 bits are for the speed while the
remaining 10 bits are the user defined key bits. Get these 10 bits
from the user-space (through the SysFs interface) and use it to form the
admin port-key. Allowed range for the user-key is 0 - 1023 (10 bits). If
it is not provided then use zero for the user-key-bits (default).
It can set using following example code -
# modprobe bonding mode=4
# usr_port_key=$(( RANDOM & 0x3FF ))
# echo $usr_port_key > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/ad_user_port_key

In an AD system, the communication between actor and partner is the
business between these two entities. In the current setup anyone on the
same L2 can "guess" the LACPDU contents and then possibly send the
spoofed LACPDUs and trick the partner causing connectivity issues for
the AD system. This patch allows to use a random mac-address obscuring
it's identity making it harder for someone in the L2 is do the same thing.
This patch allows user-space to choose the mac-address for the AD-system.
This mac-address can not be NULL or a Multicast. If the mac-address is set
from user-space; kernel will honor it and will not overwrite it. In the
absence (value from user space); the logic will default to using the
masters' mac as the mac-address for the AD-system.
It can be set using example code below -
# modprobe bonding mode=4
# sys_mac_addr=$(printf '%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x' \

Introduce xmit_mode 'netif_receive' for pktgen which generates the
packets using familiar pktgen commands, but feeds them into
netif_receive_skb() instead of ndo_start_xmit().
Default mode is called 'start_xmit'.
It is designed to test netif_receive_skb and ingress qdisc
performace only. Make sure to understand how it works before
using it for other rx benchmarking.
Sample script 'pktgen.sh':
\#!/bin/bash
function pgset() {
local result
echo $1 > $PGDEV
result=`cat $PGDEV | fgrep "Result: OK:"`
if [ "$result" = "" ]; then
cat $PGDEV | fgrep Result:
fi
}
[ -z "$1" ] && echo "Usage: $0 DEV" && exit 1
ETH=$1
PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_0
pgset "rem_device_all"
pgset "add_device $ETH"
PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/$ETH
pgset "xmit_mode netif_receive"
pgset "pkt_size 60"
pgset "dst 198.18.0.1"
pgset "dst_mac 90:e2:ba:ff:ff:ff"
pgset "count 10000000"
pgset "burst 32"
PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl
echo "Running... ctrl^C to stop"
pgset "start"
echo "Done"
cat /proc/net/pktgen/$ETH
Usage:
$ sudo ./pktgen.sh eth2

Result: OK: 232376(c232372+d3) usec, 10000000 (60byte,0frags)
43033682pps 20656Mb/sec (20656167360bps) errors: 10000000
Raw netif_receive_skb speed should be ~43 million packet
per second on 3.7Ghz x86 and 'perf report' should look like:
37.69% kpktgend_0 [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __netif_receive_skb_core
25.81% kpktgend_0 [kernel.vmlinux] [k] kfree_skb
7.22% kpktgend_0 [kernel.vmlinux] [k] ip_rcv
5.68% kpktgend_0 [pktgen] [k] pktgen_thread_worker
If fib_table_lookup is seen on top, it means skb was processed
by the stack. To benchmark netif_receive_skb only make sure
that 'dst_mac' of your pktgen script is different from
receiving device mac and it will be dropped by ip_rcv

This patch divides the IPv6 flow label space into two ranges:
0-7ffff is reserved for flow label manager, 80000-fffff will be
used for creating auto flow labels (per RFC6438). This only affects how
labels are set on transmit, it does not affect receive. This range split
can be disbaled by systcl.
Background:
IPv6 flow labels have been an unmitigated disappointment thus far
in the lifetime of IPv6. Support in HW devices to use them for ECMP
is lacking, and OSes don't turn them on by default. If we had these
we could get much better hashing in IPv6 networks without resorting
to DPI, possibly eliminating some of the motivations to to define new
encaps in UDP just for getting ECMP.
Unfortunately, the initial specfications of IPv6 did not clarify
how they are to be used. There has always been a vague concept that
these can be used for ECMP, flow hashing, etc. and we do now have a
good standard how to this in RFC6438. The problem is that flow labels
can be either stateful or stateless (as in RFC6438), and we are
presented with the possibility that a stateless label may collide
with a stateful one. Attempts to split the flow label space were
rejected in IETF. When we added support in Linux for RFC6438, we
could not turn on flow labels by default due to this conflict.
This patch splits the flow label space and should give us
a path to enabling auto flow labels by default for all IPv6 packets.
This is an API change so we need to consider compatibility with
existing deployment. The stateful range is chosen to be the lower
values in hopes that most uses would have chosen small numbers.
Once we resolve the stateless/stateful issue, we can proceed to
look at enabling RFC6438 flow labels by default (starting with
scaled testing).

Commit 567e4b7973 ("net: rfs: add hash collision detection") had one
mistake :
RPS_NO_CPU is no longer the marker for invalid cpu in set_rps_cpu()
and get_rps_cpu(), as @next_cpu was the result of an AND with
rps_cpu_mask
This bug showed up on a host with 72 cpus :
next_cpu was 0x7f, and the code was trying to access percpu data of an
non existent cpu.
In a follow up patch, we might get rid of compares against nr_cpu_ids,
if we init the tables with 0. This is silly to test for a very unlikely
condition that exists only shortly after table initialization, as
we got rid of rps_reset_sock_flow() and similar functions that were
writing this RPS_NO_CPU magic value at flow dismantle : When table is
old enough, it never contains this value anymore.

An MPLS network is a single trust domain where the edges must be in
control of what labels make their way into the core. The simplest way
of ensuring this is for the edge device to always impose the labels,
and not allow forward labeled traffic from untrusted neighbours. This
is achieved by allowing a per-device configuration of whether MPLS
traffic input from that interface should be processed or not.
To be secure by default, the default state is changed to MPLS being
disabled on all interfaces unless explicitly enabled and no global
option is provided to change the default. Whilst this differs from
other protocols (e.g. IPv6), network operators are used to explicitly
enabling MPLS forwarding on interfaces, and with the number of links
to the MPLS core typically fairly low this doesn't present too much of
a burden on operators.
