This function calls call_netdevice_notifier(), which also
may take net_rwsem. So, we can't use net_rwsem here.
This patch makes callers of this functions take pernet_ops_rwsem,
like register_netdevice_notifier() does. This will protect
the modifications of net_namespace_list, and allows notifiers
to take it (they won't have to care about context).
Since __rtnl_link_unregister() is used on module load
and unload (which are not frequent operations), this looks
for me better, than make all call_netdevice_notifier()
always executing in "protected net_namespace_list" context.
Also, this fixes the problem we had a deal in 328fbe747a

rtnl_lock() is used everywhere, and contention is very high.
When someone wants to iterate over alive net namespaces,
he/she has no a possibility to do that without exclusive lock.
But the exclusive rtnl_lock() in such places is overkill,
and it just increases the contention. Yes, there is already
for_each_net_rcu() in kernel, but it requires rcu_read_lock(),
and this can't be sleepable. Also, sometimes it may be need
really prevent net_namespace_list growth, so for_each_net_rcu()
is not fit there.
This patch introduces new rw_semaphore, which will be used
instead of rtnl_mutex to protect net_namespace_list. It is
sleepable and allows not-exclusive iterations over net
namespaces list. It allows to stop using rtnl_lock()
in several places (what is made in next patches) and makes
less the time, we keep rtnl_mutex. Here we just add new lock,
while the explanation of we can remove rtnl_lock() there are
in next patches.
Fine grained locks generally are better, then one big lock,
so let's do that with net_namespace_list, while the situation
allows that.

Currently, the mutex is mostly used to protect pernet operations
list. It orders setup_net() and cleanup_net() with parallel
{un,}register_pernet_operations() calls, so ->exit{,batch} methods
of the same pernet operations are executed for a dying net, as
were used to call ->init methods, even after the net namespace
is unlinked from net_namespace_list in cleanup_net().
But there are several problems with scalability. The first one
is that more than one net can't be created or destroyed
at the same moment on the node. For big machines with many cpus
running many containers it's very sensitive.
The second one is that it's need to synchronize_rcu() after net
is removed from net_namespace_list():
Destroy net_ns:
cleanup_net()
mutex_lock(&net_mutex)
list_del_rcu(&net->list)
synchronize_rcu() <--- Sleep there for ages
list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
ops_exit_list(ops, &net_exit_list)
list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
ops_free_list(ops, &net_exit_list)
mutex_unlock(&net_mutex)
This primitive is not fast, especially on the systems with many processors
and/or when preemptible RCU is enabled in config. So, all the time, while
cleanup_net() is waiting for RCU grace period, creation of new net namespaces
is not possible, the tasks, who makes it, are sleeping on the same mutex:
Create net_ns:
copy_net_ns()
mutex_lock_killable(&net_mutex) <--- Sleep there for ages
I observed 20-30 seconds hangs of "unshare -n" on ordinary 8-cpu laptop
with preemptible RCU enabled after CRIU tests round is finished.
The solution is to convert net_mutex to the rw_semaphore and add fine grain
locks to really small number of pernet_operations, what really need them.
Then, pernet_operations::init/::exit methods, modifying the net-related data,
will require down_read() locking only, while down_write() will be used
for changing pernet_list (i.e., when modules are being loaded and unloaded).
This gives signify performance increase, after all patch set is applied,
like you may see here:
%for i in {1..10000}; do unshare -n bash -c exit; done
*before*
real 1m40,377s
user 0m9,672s
sys 0m19,928s
*after*

(5.8 times faster)

This patch merges two repeating pieces of code in one,
and they will live in setup_net() now.
The only change is that assignment:
init_net_initialized = true;
becomes reordered with:
list_add_tail_rcu(&net->list, &net_namespace_list);
The order does not have visible effect, and it is a simple
cleanup because of:
init_net_initialized is used in !CONFIG_NET_NS case
to order proc_net_ns_ops registration occuring at boot time:
start_kernel()->proc_root_init()->proc_net_init(),
with
net_ns_init()->setup_net(&init_net, &init_user_ns)
also occuring in boot time from the same init_task.
When there are no another tasks to race with them,
for the single task it does not matter, which order
two sequential independent loads should be made.

Currently, we unhash a dying net from netns_ids lists
under rtnl_lock(). It's a leftover from the time when
net::netns_ids was introduced. There was no net::nsid_lock,
and rtnl_lock() was mostly need to order modification
of alive nets nsid idr, i.e. for:
for_each_net(tmp) {
...
id = __peernet2id(tmp, net);
idr_remove(&tmp->netns_ids, id);
...
}
Since we have net::nsid_lock, the modifications are
protected by this local lock, and now we may introduce
better scheme of netns_ids destruction.
Let's look at the functions peernet2id_alloc() and
get_net_ns_by_id(). Previous commits taught these
functions to work well with dying net acquired from
rtnl unlocked lists. And they are the only functions
which can hash a net to netns_ids or obtain from there.
And as easy to check, other netns_ids operating functions
works with id, not with net pointers. So, we do not
need rtnl_lock to synchronize cleanup_net() with all them.
The another property, which is used in the patch,
is that net is unhashed from net_namespace_list
in the only place and by the only process. So,
we avoid excess rcu_read_lock() or rtnl_lock(),
when we'are iterating over the list in unhash_nsid().
All the above makes possible to keep rtnl_lock() locked
only for net->list deletion, and completely avoid it
for netns_ids unhashing and destruction. As these two
doings may take long time (e.g., memory allocation
to send skb), the patch should positively act on
the scalability and signify decrease the time, which
rtnl_lock() is held in cleanup_net().

peernet2id_alloc() is racy without rtnl_lock() as refcount_read(&peer->count)
under net->nsid_lock does not guarantee, peer is alive:

peernet2id_alloc() ..
spin_lock_bh(&net->nsid_lock) ..
refcount_read(&peer->count) (!= 0) ..
.. put_net()

.. __peernet2id(tmp, net) == -1
.. ..
.. ..
__peernet2id_alloc(alloc == true) ..
.. ..
rcu_read_unlock() ..
.. synchronize_rcu()
.. kmem_cache_free(net)
After the above situation, net::netns_id contains id pointing to freed memory,
and any other dereferencing by the id will operate with this freed memory.
Currently, peernet2id_alloc() is used under rtnl_lock() everywhere except
ovs_vport_cmd_fill_info(), and this race can't occur. But peernet2id_alloc()
is generic interface, and better we fix it before someone really starts
use it in wrong context.

(I can trivially verify that that idr_remove in cleanup_net happens
after the network namespace count has dropped to zero --EWB)
Function get_net_ns_by_id() does not check for net::count
after it has found a peer in netns_ids idr.
It may dereference a peer, after its count has already been
finaly decremented. This leads to double free and memory
corruption:
put_net(peer) rtnl_lock()
atomic_dec_and_test(&peer->count) [count=0] ...
__put_net(peer) get_net_ns_by_id(net, id)
spin_lock(&cleanup_list_lock)
list_add(&net->cleanup_list, &cleanup_list)
spin_unlock(&cleanup_list_lock)
queue_work() peer = idr_find(&net->netns_ids, id)

net_drop_ns() ...

v
cleanup_net()
...
(Second free of peer)
Also, put_net() on the right cpu may reorder with left's cpu
list_replace_init(&cleanup_list, ..), and then cleanup_list
will be corrupted.
Since cleanup_net() is executed in worker thread, while
put_net(peer) can happen everywhere, there should be
enough time for concurrent get_net_ns_by_id() to pick
the peer up, and the race does not seem to be unlikely.
The patch fixes the problem in standard way.
(Also, there is possible problem in peernet2id_alloc(), which requires
check for net::count under nsid_lock and maybe_get_net(peer), but
in current stable kernel it's used under rtnl_lock() and it has to be
safe. Openswitch begun to use peernet2id_alloc(), and possibly it should
be fixed too. While this is not in stable kernel yet, so I'll send
a separate message to netdev@ later).

X) Use nf_ct_iterate_destroy() to remove conntrack entries helper
module removal, from Liping Zhang.
X) Use nf_ct_iterate_cleanup_net() to remove the timeout extension
if user requests this, also from Liping.
X) Add net_ns_barrier() and use it from FTP helper, so make sure
no concurrent namespace removal happens at the same time while
the helper module is being removed.
X) Use NFPROTO_MAX in layer 3 conntrack protocol array, to reduce
module size. Same thing in nf_tables.
Updates for the nf_tables infrastructure:
X) Prepare usage of the extended ACK reporting infrastructure for
nf_tables.
X) Remove unnecessary forward declaration in nf_tables hash set.
X) Skip set size estimation if number of element is not specified.
X) Changes to accomodate a (faster) unresizable hash set implementation,
for anonymous sets and dynamic size fixed sets with no timeouts.
X) Faster lookup function for unresizable hash table for 2 and 4
bytes key.

Quoting Joe Stringer:
If a user loads nf_conntrack_ftp, sends FTP traffic through a network
namespace, destroys that namespace then unloads the FTP helper module,
then the kernel will crash.
Events that lead to the crash:
1. conntrack is created with ftp helper in netns x
2. This netns is destroyed
3. netns destruction is scheduled
4. netns destruction wq starts, removes netns from global list
5. ftp helper is unloaded, which resets all helpers of the conntracks
via for_each_net()
but because netns is already gone from list the for_each_net() loop
doesn't include it, therefore all of these conntracks are unaffected.
6. helper module unload finishes
7. netns wq invokes destructor for rmmod'ed helper

When the user tries to assign a specific nsid, idr_alloc() is called with
the range [nsid, nsid+1]. If this nsid is already used, idr_alloc() returns
ENOSPC (No space left on device). In our case, it's better to return
EEXIST to make it clear that the nsid is not available.

The default value for somaxconn is set in sysctl_core_net_init(), but this
function is not called when kernel is configured without CONFIG_SYSCTL.
This results in the kernel not being able to accept TCP connections,
because the backlog has zero size. Usually, the user ends up with:
"TCP: request_sock_TCP: Possible SYN flooding on port 7. Dropping request. Check SNMP counters."
If SYN cookies are not enabled the connection is rejected.
Before ef547f2ac1 (tcp: remove max_qlen_log), the effects were less
severe, because the backlog was always at least eight slots long.

Initialise init_net.count to 1 for its pointer from init_nsproxy lest
someone tries to do a get_net() and a put_net() in a process in which
current->ns_proxy->net_ns points to the initial network namespace.

Add netlink_ext_ack arg to rtnl_doit_func. Pass extack arg to nlmsg_parse
for doit functions that call it directly.
This is the first step to using extended error reporting in rtnetlink.
>From here individual subsystems can be updated to set netlink_ext_ack as
needed.

Pass the new extended ACK reporting struct to all of the generic
netlink parsing functions. For now, pass NULL in almost all callers
(except for some in the core.)

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
"After the small number of patches for v4.9, we've got a much bigger
pile for v4.10.
The bulk of these patches involve a rework of the audit backlog queue
to enable us to move the netlink multicasting out of the task/thread
that generates the audit record and into the kernel thread that emits
the record (just like we do for the audit unicast to auditd).
While we were playing with the backlog queue(s) we fixed a number of
other little problems with the code, and from all the testing so far
things look to be in much better shape now. Doing this also allowed us
to re-enable disabling IRQs for some netns operations ("netns: avoid
disabling irq for netns id").
The remaining patches fix some small problems that are well documented
in the commit descriptions, as well as adding session ID filtering
support"
* 'stable-4.10' of git://git.infradead.org/users/pcmoore/audit:
audit: use proper refcount locking on audit_sock
netns: avoid disabling irq for netns id
audit: don't ever sleep on a command record/message
audit: handle a clean auditd shutdown with grace
audit: wake up kauditd_thread after auditd registers
audit: rework audit_log_start()
audit: rework the audit queue handling
audit: rename the queues and kauditd related functions
audit: queue netlink multicast sends just like we do for unicast sends
audit: fixup audit_init()
audit: move kaudit thread start from auditd registration to kaudit init (#2)
audit: add support for session ID user filter
audit: fix formatting of AUDIT_CONFIG_CHANGE events
audit: skip sessionid sentinel value when auto-incrementing
audit: tame initialization warning len_abuf in audit_log_execve_info
audit: less stack usage for /proc/*/loginuid
