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.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following large patchset contains Netfilter updates for your
net-next tree. My initial intention was to send you this in two goes but
when I looked back twice I already had this burden on top of me.
Several updates for IPVS from Marco Angaroni:
1) Allow SIP connections originating from real-servers to be load
balanced by the SIP persistence engine as is already implemented
in the other direction.
2) Release connections immediately for One-packet-scheduling (OPS)
in IPVS, instead of making it via timer and rcu callback.
3) Skip deleting conntracks for each one packet in OPS, and don't call
nf_conntrack_alter_reply() since no reply is expected.
4) Enable drop on exhaustion for OPS + SIP persistence.
Miscelaneous conntrack updates from Florian Westphal, including fix for
hash resize:
5) Move conntrack generation counter out of conntrack pernet structure
since this is only used by the init_ns to allow hash resizing.
6) Use get_random_once() from packet path to collect hash random seed
instead of our compound.
7) Don't disable BH from ____nf_conntrack_find() for statistics,
use NF_CT_STAT_INC_ATOMIC() instead.
8) Fix lookup race during conntrack hash resizing.
9) Introduce clash resolution on conntrack insertion for connectionless
protocol.
Then, Florian's netns rework to get rid of per-netns conntrack table,
thus we use one single table for them all. There was consensus on this
change during the NFWS 2015 and, on top of that, it has recently been
pointed as a source of multiple problems from unpriviledged netns:
11) Use a single conntrack hashtable for all namespaces. Include netns
in object comparisons and make it part of the hash calculation.
Adapt early_drop() to consider netns.
12) Use single expectation and NAT hashtable for all namespaces.
13) Use a single slab cache for all namespaces for conntrack objects.
14) Skip full table scanning from nf_ct_iterate_cleanup() if the pernet
conntrack counter tells us the table is empty (ie. equals zero).
Fixes for nf_tables interval set element handling, support to set
conntrack connlabels and allow set names up to 32 bytes.
15) Parse element flags from element deletion path and pass it up to the
backend set implementation.
16) Allow adjacent intervals in the rbtree set type for dynamic interval
updates.
17) Add support to set connlabel from nf_tables, from Florian Westphal.
18) Allow set names up to 32 bytes in nf_tables.
Several x_tables fixes and updates:
19) Fix incorrect use of IS_ERR_VALUE() in x_tables, original patch
from Andrzej Hajda.
And finally, miscelaneous netfilter updates such as:
20) Disable automatic helper assignment by default. Note this proc knob
was introduced by a900689264 ("netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to
disable automatic helper assignment") 4 years ago to start moving
towards explicit conntrack helper configuration via iptables CT
target.
21) Get rid of obsolete and inconsistent debugging instrumentation
in x_tables.
22) Remove unnecessary check for null after ip6_route_output().

DoS protection policy that deletes connections to avoid out of memory is
currently not effective for SIP-pe plus OPS-mode for two reasons:
1) connection templates (holding SIP call-id) are always skipped in
ip_vs_random_dropentry()
2) in_pkts counter (used by drop_entry algorithm) is not incremented
for connection templates
This patch addresses such problems with the following changes:
a) connection templates associated (via their dest) to virtual-services
configured in OPS mode are included in ip_vs_random_dropentry()
monitoring. This applies to SIP-pe over UDP (which requires OPS mode),
but is more general principle: when OPS is controlled by templates
memory can be used only by templates themselves, since OPS conns are
deleted after packet is forwarded.
b) OPS connections, if controlled by a template, cause increment of
in_pkts counter of their template. This is already happening but only
in case director is in master-slave mode (see ip_vs_sync_conn()).

This patch introduces nf_ct_resolve_clash() to resolve race condition on
conntrack insertions.
This is particularly a problem for connection-less protocols such as
UDP, with no initial handshake. Two or more packets may race to insert
the entry resulting in packet drops.
Another problematic scenario are packets enqueued to userspace via
NFQUEUE after the raw table, that make it easier to trigger this
race.
To resolve this, the idea is to reset the conntrack entry to the one
that won race. Packet and bytes counters are also merged.
The 'insert_failed' stats still accounts for this situation, after
this patch, the drop counter is bumped whenever we drop packets, so we
can watch for unresolved clashes.

prevents readers from observing a the newly allocated hash but the old
size (or vice versa).
So access to hash[bucket] can trigger OOB read access in case the table got
expanded and we saw the new size but the old hash pointer (or it got shrunk
and we got new hash ptr but the size of the old and larger table):

Conntrack labels are currently sized depending on the iptables
ruleset, i.e. if we're asked to test or set bits 1, 2, and 65 then we
would allocate enough room to store at least bit 65.
However, with nft, the input is just a register with arbitrary runtime
content.
We therefore ask for the upper ceiling we currently have, which is
enough room to store 128 bits.
Alternatively, we could alter nf_connlabel_replace to increase
net->ct.label_words at run time, but since 128 bits is not that
big we'd only save sizeof(long) so it doesn't seem worth it for now.
This follows a similar approach that xtables 'connlabel'
match uses, so when user inputs
ct label set bar
then we will set the bit used by the 'bar' label and leave the rest alone.
This is done by passing the sreg content to nf_connlabels_replace
as both value and mask argument.
Labels (bits) already set thus cannot be re-set to zero, but
this is not supported by xtables connlabel match either.

This patch fixes dynamic element updates for adjacent intervals in the
rb-tree representation.
Since elements are sorted in the rb-tree, in case of adjacent nodes with
the same key, the assumption is that an interval end node must be placed
before an interval opening.
In tree lookup operations, the idea is to search for the closer element
that is smaller than the one we're searching for. Given that we'll have
two possible matchings, we have to take the opening interval in case of
adjacent nodes.
Range merges are not trivial with the current representation,
specifically we have to check if node extensions are equal and make sure
we keep the existing internal states around.

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree, mostly from Florian Westphal to sort out the lack of sufficient
validation in x_tables and connlabel preparation patches to add
nf_tables support. They are:
1) Ensure we don't go over the ruleset blob boundaries in

2) Validate that target jumps land on an existing xt_entry. This extra
sanitization comes with a performance penalty when loading the ruleset.
3) Introduce xt_check_entry_offsets() and use it from {arp,ip,ip6}tables.
4) Get rid of the smallish check_entry() functions in {arp,ip,ip6}tables.
5) Make sure the minimal possible target size in x_tables.
6) Similar to #3, add xt_compat_check_entry_offsets() for compat code.
7) Check that standard target size is valid.
8) More sanitization to ensure that the target_offset field is correct.
9) Add xt_check_entry_match() to validate that matches are well-formed.
10-12) Three patch to reduce the number of parameters in
translate_compat_table() for {arp,ip,ip6}tables by using a container
structure.
13) No need to return value from xt_compat_match_from_user(), so make
it void.
14) Consolidate translate_table() so it can be used by compat code too.
15) Remove obsolete check for compat code, so we keep consistent with
what was already removed in the native layout code (back in 2007).
16) Get rid of target jump validation from mark_source_chains(),
obsoleted by #2.
17) Introduce xt_copy_counters_from_user() to consolidate counter
copying, and use it from {arp,ip,ip6}tables.

When using OPS mode in conjunction with SIP persistent-engine, packets
originating from the same ip-address/port could be balanced to different
real servers, and (to properly handle SIP responses) OPS connections
are created in the in-out direction too, where ip_vs_update_conntrack()
is called to modify the reply tuple.
As a result, there can be collision of conntrack tuples, causing random
packet drops, as explained below:
conntrack1: orig=CIP->VIP, reply=RIP1->CIP
conntrack2: orig=RIP2->CIP, reply=CIP->VIP
Tuple CIP->VIP is both in orig of conntrack1 and reply of conntrack2.
The collision triggers packet drop inside nf_conntrack processing.
In addition, the current implementation deletes the conntrack object at
every expire of an OPS connection (once every forwarded packet), to have
it recreated from scratch at next packet traversing IPVS.
Since in OPS mode, by definition, we don't expect any associated
response, the choices implemented in this patch are:
a) don't call nf_conntrack_alter_reply() for OPS connections inside
ip_vs_update_conntrack().
b) don't delete the conntrack object at OPS connection expire.
The result is that created conntrack objects for each tuple CIP->VIP,
RIP-N->CIP, etc. are left in UNREPLIED state and not modified by IPVS
OPS connection management. This eliminates packet drops and leaves
a single conntrack object for each tuple packets are sent from.

One-packet-scheduling is the most expensive mode in IPVS from
performance point of view: for each packet to be processed a new
connection data structure is created and, after packet is sent,
deleted by starting a new timer set to expire immediately.
SIP persistent-engine needs OPS mode to have Call-ID based load
balancing, so OPS mode performance has negative impact in SIP
protocol load balancing.
This patch aims to improve performance of OPS mode by means of the
following changes in the release mechanism of OPS connections:
a) call expire callback ip_vs_conn_expire() directly instead of
starting a timer programmed to fire immediately.
b) avoid call_rcu() overhead inside expire callback, since OPS
connection are not inserted in the hash-table and last just the
time to process the packet, hence there is no concurrent access
to such data structures.

When using LVS-NAT and SIP persistence-egine over UDP, the following
limitations are present with current implementation:
1) To actually have load-balancing based on Call-ID header, you need to
use one-packet-scheduling mode. But with one-packet-scheduling the
connection is deleted just after packet is forwarded, so SIP responses
coming from real-servers do not match any connection and SNAT is
not applied.
2) If you do not use "-o" option, IPVS behaves as normal UDP load
balancer, so different SIP calls (each one identified by a different
Call-ID) coming from the same ip-address/port go to the same
real-server. So basically you don’t have load-balancing based on
Call-ID as intended.
3) Call-ID is not learned when a new SIP call is started by a real-server
(inside-to-outside direction), but only in the outside-to-inside
direction. This would be a general problem for all SIP servers acting
as Back2BackUserAgent.
This patch aims to solve problems 1) and 3) while keeping OPS mode
mandatory for SIP-UDP, so that 2) is not a problem anymore.
The basic mechanism implemented is to make packets, that do not match any
existent connection but come from real-servers, create new connections
instead of let them pass without any effect.
When such packets pass through ip_vs_out(), if their source ip address and
source port match a configured real-server, a new connection is
automatically created in the same way as it would have happened if the
packet had come from outside-to-inside direction. A new connection template
is created too if the virtual-service is persistent and there is no
matching connection template found. The new connection automatically
created, if the service had "-o" option, is an OPS connection that lasts
only the time to forward the packet, just like it happens on the
ingress side.
The main part of this mechanism is implemented inside a persistent-engine
specific callback (at the moment only SIP persistent engine exists) and
is triggered only for UDP packets, since connection oriented protocols, by
using different set of ports (typically ephemeral ports) to open new
outgoing connections, should not need this feature.
The following requisites are needed for automatic connection creation; if
any is missing the packet simply goes the same way as before.
a) virtual-service is not fwmark based (this is because fwmark services
do not store address and port of the virtual-service, required to
build the connection data).
b) virtual-service and real-servers must not have been configured with
omitted port (this is again to have all data to create the connection).

So gcc compiles them out when CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS and
CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_GLUE_CT are not set.

nf_connlabel_set() takes the bit number that we would like to set.
nf_connlabels_get() however took the number of bits that we want to
support.
So e.g. nf_connlabels_get(32) support bits 0 to 31, but not 32.
This changes nf_connlabels_get() to take the highest bit that we want
to set.
Callers then don't have to cope with a potential integer wrap
when using nf_connlabels_get(bit + 1) anymore.
Current callers are fine, this change is only to make folloup
nft ct label set support simpler.

make the replace function only send a ctnetlink event if the contents
of the new set is different.
Otherwise 'ct label set ct label | bar'
will cause netlink event storm since we "replace" labels for each packet.
