Roopa Prabhu d297653dd6 rtnetlink: fdb dump: optimize by saving last interface markers
fdb dumps spanning multiple skb's currently restart from the first
interface again for every skb. This results in unnecessary
iterations on the already visited interfaces and their fdb
entries. In large scale setups, we have seen this to slow
down fdb dumps considerably. On a system with 30k macs we
see fdb dumps spanning across more than 300 skbs.

To fix the problem, this patch replaces the existing single fdb
marker with three markers: netdev hash entries, netdevs and fdb
index to continue where we left off instead of restarting from the
first netdev. This is consistent with link dumps.

In the process of fixing the performance issue, this patch also
re-implements fix done by
commit 472681d57a ("net: ndo_fdb_dump should report -EMSGSIZE to rtnl_fdb_dump")
(with an internal fix from Wilson Kok) in the following ways:
- change ndo_fdb_dump handlers to return error code instead
of the last fdb index
- use cb->args strictly for dump frag markers and not error codes.
This is consistent with other dump functions.

Below results were taken on a system with 1000 netdevs
and 35085 fdb entries:
before patch:
$time bridge fdb show | wc -l
15065

real    1m11.791s
user    0m0.070s
sys 1m8.395s

(existing code does not return all macs)

after patch:
$time bridge fdb show | wc -l
35085

real    0m2.017s
user    0m0.113s
sys 0m1.942s

Eric Dumazet 1b5c5493e3 net_sched: add the ability to defer skb freeing
qdisc are changed under RTNL protection and often
while blocking BH and root qdisc spinlock.

When lots of skbs need to be dropped, we free
them under these locks causing TX/RX freezes,
and more generally latency spikes.

This commit adds rtnl_kfree_skbs(), used to queue
skbs for deferred freeing.

Actual freeing happens right after RTNL is released,
with appropriate scheduling points.

rtnl_qdisc_drop() can also be used in place
of disc_drop() when RTNL is held.

qdisc_reset_queue() and __qdisc_reset_queue() get
the new behavior, so standard qdiscs like pfifo, pfifo_fast...
have their ->reset() method automatically handled.

Daniel Borkmann 1f211a1b92 net, sched: add clsact qdisc
This work adds a generalization of the ingress qdisc as a qdisc holding
only classifiers. The clsact qdisc works on ingress, but also on egress.
In both cases, it's execution happens without taking the qdisc lock, and
the main difference for the egress part compared to prior version of [1]
is that this can be applied with _any_ underlying real egress qdisc (also
classless ones).

Besides solving the use-case of [1], that is, allowing for more programmability
on assigning skb->priority for the mqprio case that is supported by most
popular 10G+ NICs, it also opens up a lot more flexibility for other tc
applications. The main work on classification can already be done at clsact
egress time if the use-case allows and state stored for later retrieval
f.e. again in skb->priority with major/minors (which is checked by most
classful qdiscs before consulting tc_classify()) and/or in other skb fields
like skb->tc_index for some light-weight post-processing to get to the
eventual classid in case of a classful qdisc. Another use case is that
the clsact egress part allows to have a central egress counterpart to
the ingress classifiers, so that classifiers can easily share state (e.g.
in cls_bpf via eBPF maps) for ingress and egress.

Currently, default setups like mq + pfifo_fast would require for this to
use, for example, prio qdisc instead (to get a tc_classify() run) and to
duplicate the egress classifier for each queue. With clsact, it allows
for leaving the setup as is, it can additionally assign skb->priority to
put the skb in one of pfifo_fast's bands and it can share state with maps.
Moreover, we can access the skb's dst entry (f.e. to retrieve tclassid)
w/o the need to perform a skb_dst_force() to hold on to it any longer. In
lwt case, we can also use this facility to setup dst metadata via cls_bpf
(bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key()) without needing a real egress qdisc just for
that (case of IFF_NO_QUEUE devices, for example).

The realization can be done without any changes to the scheduler core
framework. All it takes is that we have two a-priori defined minors/child
classes, where we can mux between ingress and egress classifier list
(dev->ingress_cl_list and dev->egress_cl_list, latter stored close to
dev->_tx to avoid extra cacheline miss for moderate loads). The egress
part is a bit similar modelled to handle_ing() and patched to a noop in
case the functionality is not used. Both handlers are now called
sch_handle_ingress() and sch_handle_egress(), code sharing among the two
doesn't seem practical as there are various minor differences in both
paths, so that making them conditional in a single handler would rather
slow things down.

Full compatibility to ingress qdisc is provided as well. Since both
piggyback on TC_H_CLSACT, only one of them (ingress/clsact) can exist
per netdevice, and thus ingress qdisc specific behaviour can be retained
for user space. This means, either a user does 'tc qdisc add dev foo ingress'
and configures ingress qdisc as usual, or the 'tc qdisc add dev foo clsact'
alternative, where both, ingress and egress classifier can be configured
as in the below example. ingress qdisc supports attaching classifier to any
minor number whereas clsact has two fixed minors for muxing between the
lists, therefore to not break user space setups, they are better done as
two separate qdiscs.

I decided to extend the sch_ingress module with clsact functionality so
that commonly used code can be reused, the module is being aliased with
sch_clsact so that it can be auto-loaded properly. Alternative would have been
to add a flag when initializing ingress to alter its behaviour plus aliasing
to a different name (as it's more than just ingress). However, the first would
end up, based on the flag, choosing the new/old behaviour by calling different
function implementations to handle each anyway, the latter would require to
register ingress qdisc once again under different alias. So, this really begs
to provide a minimal, cleaner approach to have Qdisc_ops and Qdisc_class_ops
by its own that share callbacks used by both.

Example, adding qdisc:

   # tc qdisc add dev foo clsact
   # tc qdisc show dev foo
   qdisc mq 0: root
   qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :1 bands 3 priomap  1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
   qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :2 bands 3 priomap  1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
   qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :3 bands 3 priomap  1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
   qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :4 bands 3 priomap  1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
   qdisc clsact ffff: parent ffff:fff1

Adding filters (deleting, etc works analogous by specifying ingress/egress):

   # tc filter add dev foo ingress bpf da obj bar.o sec ingress
   # tc filter add dev foo egress  bpf da obj bar.o sec egress
   # tc filter show dev foo ingress
   filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf
   filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x1 bar.o:[ingress] direct-action
   # tc filter show dev foo egress
   filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf
   filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x1 bar.o:[egress] direct-action

A 'tc filter show dev foo' or 'tc filter show dev foo parent ffff:' will
show an empty list for clsact. Either using the parent names (ingress/egress)
or specifying the full major/minor will then show the related filter lists.

Prior work on a mqprio prequeue() facility [1] was done mainly by John Fastabend.

Scott Feldman 7d4f8d871a switchdev; add VLAN support for port's bridge_getlink
One more missing piece of the puzzle.  Add vlan dump support to switchdev
port's bridge_getlink.  iproute2 "bridge vlan show" cmd already knows how
to show the vlans installed on the bridge and the device , but (until now)
no one implemented the port vlan part of the netlink PF_BRIDGE:RTM_GETLINK
msg.  Before this patch, "bridge vlan show":

	$ bridge -c vlan show
	port    vlan ids
	sw1p1    30-34			<< bridge side vlans
		 57

	sw1p1				<< device side vlans (missing)

	sw1p2    57

	sw1p2

	sw1p3

	sw1p4

	br0     None

(When the port is bridged, the output repeats the vlan list for the vlans
on the bridge side of the port and the vlans on the device side of the
port.  The listing above show no vlans for the device side even though they
are installed).

After this patch:

	$ bridge -c vlan show
	port    vlan ids
	sw1p1    30-34			<< bridge side vlan
		 57

	sw1p1    30-34			<< device side vlans
		 57
		 3840 PVID

	sw1p2    57

	sw1p2    57
		 3840 PVID

	sw1p3    3842 PVID

	sw1p4    3843 PVID

	br0     None

I re-used ndo_dflt_bridge_getlink to add vlan fill call-back func.
switchdev support adds an obj dump for VLAN objects, using the same
call-back scheme as FDB dump.  Support included for both compressed and
un-compressed vlan dumps.

This new config switch enables the ingress filtering infrastructure that is
controlled through the ingress_needed static key. This prepares the
introduction of the Netfilter ingress hook that resides under this unique
static key.

Note that CONFIG_SCH_INGRESS automatically selects this, that should be no
problem since this also depends on CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT.

Daniel Borkmann 4577139b2d net: use jump label patching for ingress qdisc in __netif_receive_skb_core
Even if we make use of classifier and actions from the egress
path, we're going into handle_ing() executing additional code
on a per-packet cost for ingress qdisc, just to realize that
nothing is attached on ingress.

Instead, this can just be blinded out as a no-op entirely with
the use of a static key. On input fast-path, we already make
use of static keys in various places, e.g. skb time stamping,
in RPS, etc. It makes sense to not waste time when we're assured
that no ingress qdisc is attached anywhere.

Enabling/disabling of that code path is being done via two
helpers, namely net_{inc,dec}_ingress_queue(), that are being
invoked under RTNL mutex when a ingress qdisc is being either
initialized or destructed.

Mahesh Bandewar 395eea6ccf rtnetlink: delay RTM_DELLINK notification until after ndo_uninit()
The commit 56bfa7ee7c ("unregister_netdevice : move RTM_DELLINK to
until after ndo_uninit") tried to do this ealier but while doing so
it created a problem. Unfortunately the delayed rtmsg_ifinfo() also
delayed call to fill_info(). So this translated into asking driver
to remove private state and then query it's private state. This
could have catastropic consequences.

This change breaks the rtmsg_ifinfo() into two parts - one takes the
precise snapshot of the device by called fill_info() before calling
the ndo_uninit() and the second part sends the notification using
collected snapshot.

It was brought to notice when last link is deleted from an ipvlan device
when it has free-ed the port and the subsequent .fill_info() call is
trying to get the info from the port.

It is useful to be able to walk all upper devices when bringing

is safe to walk the all_adj_list because the RTNL lock is used
to protect the write side as well.

This patch adds a check to see if the rtnl lock is held before
throwing a warning in netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu().

Also because we now have a call site for lockdep_rtnl_is_held()
outside COFIG_LOCK_PROVING an inline definition returning 1 is
needed. Similar to the rcu_read_lock_is_held().

If the driver does not support the ndo_op use the generic
handler for it. This should work in the majority of cases.
Eventually the fdb_dflt_add call gets translated into a
__dev_set_rx_mode() call which should handle hardware
support for filtering via the IFF_UNICAST_FLT flag.

Namely IFF_UNICAST_FLT indicates if the hardware can do
unicast address filtering. If no support is available
the device is put into promisc mode.

John Fastabend 815cccbf10 ixgbe: add setlink, getlink support to ixgbe and ixgbevf
This adds support for the net device ops to manage the embedded
hardware bridge on ixgbe devices. With this patch the bridge
mode can be toggled between VEB and VEPA to support stacking
macvlan devices or using the embedded switch without any SW
component in 802.1Qbg/br environments.

Additionally, this adds source address pruning to the ixgbevf
driver to prune any frames sent back from a reflective relay on
the switch. This is required because the existing hardware does
not support this. Without it frames get pushed into the stack
with its own src mac which is invalid per 802.1Qbg VEPA
definition.

John Fastabend 77162022ab net: add generic PF_BRIDGE:RTM_ FDB hooks
This adds two new flags NTF_MASTER and NTF_SELF that can
now be used to specify where PF_BRIDGE netlink commands should
be sent. NTF_MASTER sends the commands to the 'dev->master'
device for parsing. Typically this will be the linux net/bridge,
or open-vswitch devices. Also without any flags set the command
will be handled by the master device as well so that current user
space tools continue to work as expected.

The NTF_SELF flag will push the PF_BRIDGE commands to the
device. In the basic example below the commands are then parsed
and programmed in the embedded bridge.

Note if both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER bits are set then the
command will be sent to both 'dev->master' and 'dev' this allows
user space to easily keep the embedded bridge and software bridge
in sync.

There is a slight complication in the case with both flags set
when an error occurs. To resolve this the rtnl handler clears
the NTF_ flag in the netlink ack to indicate which sets completed
successfully. The add/del handlers will abort as soon as any
error occurs.

To support this new net device ops were added to call into
the device and the existing bridging code was refactored
to use these. There should be no required changes in user space
to support the current bridge behavior.

A basic setup with a SR-IOV enabled NIC looks like this,

          veth0  veth2
            |      |
          ------------
          |  bridge0 |   <---- software bridging
          ------------
               /
               /
  ethx.y      ethx
    VF         PF
     \         \          <---- propagate FDB entries to HW
     \         \
  --------------------
  |  Embedded Bridge |    <---- hardware offloaded switching
  --------------------

In this case the embedded bridge must be managed to allow 'veth0'
to communicate with 'ethx.y' correctly. At present drivers managing
the embedded bridge either send frames onto the network which
then get dropped by the switch OR the embedded bridge will flood
these frames. With this patch we have a mechanism to manage the
embedded bridge correctly from user space. This example is specific
to SR-IOV but replacing the VF with another PF or dropping this
into the DSA framework generates similar management issues.

Examples session using the 'br'[1] tool to add, dump and then
delete a mac address with a new "embedded" option and enabled
ixgbe driver:

# br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 dev eth3
# br fdb
port    mac addr                flags
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
#br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3
#br fdb
port    mac addr                flags
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       local embedded
#br fdb del 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3

I added a couple lines to 'br' to set the flags correctly is all. It
is my opinion that the merit of this patch is now embedded and SW
bridges can both be modeled correctly in user space using very nearly
the same message passing.

[1] 'br' tool was published as an RFC here and will be renamed 'bridge'

Greg Rose 115c9b8192 rtnetlink: Fix problem with buffer allocation
Implement a new netlink attribute type IFLA_EXT_MASK.  The mask
is a 32 bit value that can be used to indicate to the kernel that
certain extended ifinfo values are requested by the user application.
At this time the only mask value defined is RTEXT_FILTER_VF to
indicate that the user wants the ifinfo dump to send information
about the VFs belonging to the interface.

This patch fixes a bug in which certain applications do not have
large enough buffers to accommodate the extra information returned
by the kernel with large numbers of SR-IOV virtual functions.
Those applications will not send the new netlink attribute with
the interface info dump request netlink messages so they will
not get unexpectedly large request buffers returned by the kernel.

Modifies the rtnl_calcit function to traverse the list of net
devices and compute the minimum buffer size that can hold the
info dumps of all matching devices based upon the filter passed
in via the new netlink attribute filter mask.  If no filter
mask is sent then the buffer allocation defaults to NLMSG_GOODSIZE.

With this change it is possible to add yet to be defined netlink
attributes to the dump request which should make it fairly extensible
in the future.

John Fastabend 314b4778ed net: dcbnl, add multicast group for DCB
Now that dcbnl is being used in many cases by more
than a single agent it is beneficial to be notified
when some entity either driver or user space has
changed the DCB attributes.

Today applications either end up polling the interface
or relying on a user space database to maintain the DCB
state and post events. Polling is a poor solution for
obvious reasons. And relying on a user space database
has its own downside. Namely it has created strange
boot dependencies requiring the database be populated
before any applications dependent on DCB attributes
starts or the application goes into a polling loop.
Populating the database requires negotiating link
setting with the peer and can take anywhere from less
than a second up to a few seconds depending on the switch
implementation.

Perhaps more importantly if another application or an
embedded agent sets a DCB link attribute the database
has no way of knowing other than polling the kernel.
This prevents applications from responding quickly to
changes in link events which at least in the FCoE case
and probably any other protocols expecting a lossless
link may result in IO errors.

By adding a multicast group for DCB we have clean way
to disseminate kernel DCB link attributes up to user
space. Avoiding the need for user space to maintain
a coherant database and disperse events that potentially
do not reflect the current link state.

Patrick McHardy d1db275dd3 ipv6: ip6mr: support multiple tables
This patch adds support for multiple independant multicast routing instances,
named "tables".

Userspace multicast routing daemons can bind to a specific table instance by
issuing a setsockopt call using a new option MRT6_TABLE. The table number is
stored in the raw socket data and affects all following ip6mr setsockopt(),
getsockopt() and ioctl() calls. By default, a single table (RT6_TABLE_DFLT)
is created with a default routing rule pointing to it. Newly created pim6reg
devices have the table number appended ("pim6regX"), with the exception of
devices created in the default table, which are named just "pim6reg" for
compatibility reasons.

Packets are directed to a specific table instance using routing rules,
similar to how regular routing rules work. Currently iif, oif and mark
are supported as keys, source and destination addresses could be supported
additionally.

Example usage:

- bind pimd/xorp/... to a specific table:

uint32_t table = 123;
setsockopt(fd, SOL_IPV6, MRT6_TABLE, &table, sizeof(table));

- create routing rules directing packets to the new table:

# ip -6 mrule add iif eth0 lookup 123
# ip -6 mrule add oif eth0 lookup 123

Decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families in socket.h to

without increasing AF_MAX/NPROTO.

This will be used to add support for multicast route dumping from all tables
as the proc interface can't be extended to support anything but the main table
without breaking compatibility.

This partialy undoes the patch to introduce independant families for routing
rules and converts ipmr routing rules to a new rtnetlink family. Similar to
that patch, values up to 127 are reserved for real address families, values
above that may be used arbitrarily.

laurent chavey 31d12926e3 net: Add rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive window
Add rtnetlink init_rcvwnd to set the TCP initial receive window size
advertised by passive and active TCP connections.
The current Linux TCP implementation limits the advertised TCP initial
receive window to the one prescribed by slow start. For short lived
TCP connections used for transaction type of traffic (i.e. http
requests), bounding the advertised TCP initial receive window results
in increased latency to complete the transaction.
Support for setting initial congestion window is already supported
using rtnetlink init_cwnd, but the feature is useless without the
ability to set a larger TCP initial receive window.
The rtnetlink init_rcvwnd allows increasing the TCP initial receive
window, allowing TCP connection to advertise larger TCP receive window
than the ones bounded by slow start.

David S. Miller bb5b7c1126 tcp: Revert per-route SACK/DSACK/TIMESTAMP changes.
It creates a regression, triggering badness for SYN_RECV
sockets, for example:

[19148.022102] Badness at net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c:293
[19148.022570] NIP: c02a0914 LR: c02a0904 CTR: 00000000
[19148.023035] REGS: eeecbd30 TRAP: 0700   Not tainted  (2.6.32)
[19148.023496] MSR: 00029032 <EE,ME,CE,IR,DR>  CR: 24002442  XER: 00000000
[19148.024012] TASK = eee9a820[1756] 'privoxy' THREAD: eeeca000

This is likely caused by the change in the 'estab' parameter
passed to tcp_parse_options() when invoked by the functions
in net/ipv4/tcp_minisocks.c

But even if that is fixed, the ->conn_request() changes made in
this patch series is fundamentally wrong.  They try to use the
listening socket's 'dst' to probe the route settings.  The
listening socket doesn't even have a route, and you can't
get the right route (the child request one) until much later
after we setup all of the state, and it must be done by hand.

This stuff really isn't ready, so the best thing to do is a
full revert.  This reverts the following commits:

Pablo Neira Ayuso 1ce85fe402 netlink: change nlmsg_notify() return value logic
This patch changes the return value of nlmsg_notify() as follows:

If NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR is set by any of the listeners and
an error in the delivery happened, return the broadcast error;
else if there are no listeners apart from the socket that
requested a change with the echo flag, return the result of the
unicast notification. Thus, with this patch, the unicast
notification is handled in the same way of a broadcast listener
that has set the NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR socket flag.

This patch is useful in case that the caller of nlmsg_notify()
wants to know the result of the delivery of a netlink notification
(including the broadcast delivery) and take any action in case
that the delivery failed. For example, ctnetlink can drop packets
if the event delivery failed to provide reliable logging and
state-synchronization at the cost of dropping packets.

This patch also modifies the rtnetlink code to ignore the return
value of rtnl_notify() in all callers. The function rtnl_notify()
(before this patch) returned the error of the unicast notification
which makes rtnl_set_sk_err() reports errors to all listeners. This
is not of any help since the origin of the change (the socket that
requested the echoing) notices the ENOBUFS error if the notification
fails and should resync itself.

Alexander Duyck 2f90b8657e ixgbe: this patch adds support for DCB to the kernel and ixgbe driver
This adds support for Data Center Bridging (DCB) features in the ixgbe
driver and adds an rtnetlink interface for configuring DCB to the
kernel.  The DCB feature support included are Priority Grouping (PG) -
which allows bandwidth guarantees to be allocated to groups to traffic
based on the 802.1q priority, and Priority Based Flow Control (PFC) -
which introduces a new MAC control PAUSE frame which works at
granularity of the 802.1p priority instead of the link (IEEE 802.3x).
