Conflicts: drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.c net/core/sysctl_net_core.c net/ipv4/inet_diag.c The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky. The conflict hunks generated by GIT were very unhelpful, to say the least. It split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual conflict only existed solely inside of one function, that being be_map_pci_bars(). So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top of net-next, then I applied the be_main.c changes from 'net' since the last time I merged. And this worked beautifully. The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple overlapping changes, and were easily to resolve. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2015-01-23xen-netback: always fully coalesce guest Rx packetsDavid Vrabel1-104/+3

Commit bc96f648df1bbc2729abbb84513cf4f64273a1f1 (xen-netback: make feature-rx-notify mandatory) incorrectly assumed that there were no frontends in use that did not support this feature. But the frontend driver in MiniOS does not and since this is used by (qemu) stubdoms, these stopped working. Netback sort of works as-is in this mode except: - If there are no Rx requests and the internal Rx queue fills, only the drain timeout will wake the thread. The default drain timeout of 10 s would give unacceptable pauses. - If an Rx stall was detected and the internal Rx queue is drained, then the Rx thread would never wake. Handle these two cases (when feature-rx-notify is disabled) by: - Reducing the drain timeout to 30 ms. - Disabling Rx stall detection.

2014-11-06xen-netback: remove unconditional __pskb_pull_tail() in guest Tx pathMalcolm Crossley1-14/+12
Unconditionally pulling 128 bytes into the linear area is not required for: - security: Every protocol demux starts with pskb_may_pull() to pull frag data into the linear area, if necessary, before looking at headers. - performance: Netback has already grant copied up-to 128 bytes from the first slot of a packet into the linear area. The first slot normally contain all the IPv4/IPv6 and TCP/UDP headers. The unconditional pull would often copy frag data unnecessarily. This is a performance problem when running on a version of Xen where grant unmap avoids TLB flushes for pages which are not accessed. TLB flushes can now be avoided for > 99% of unmaps (it was 0% before). Grant unmap TLB flush avoidance will be available in a future version of Xen (probably 4.6).

If a frontend not receiving packets it is useful to detect this and turn off the carrier so packets are dropped early instead of being queued and drained when they expire. A to-guest queue is stalled if it doesn't have enough free slots for a an extended period of time (default 60 s). If at least one queue is stalled, the carrier is turned off (in the expectation that the other queues will soon stall as well). The carrier is only turned on once all queues are ready. When the frontend connects, all the queues start in the stalled state and only become ready once the frontend queues enough Rx requests.

2014-10-25xen-netback: fix unlimited guest Rx internal queue and carrier flappingDavid Vrabel1-118/+125
Netback needs to discard old to-guest skb's (guest Rx queue drain) and it needs detect guest Rx stalls (to disable the carrier so packets are discarded earlier), but the current implementation is very broken. 1. The check in hard_start_xmit of the slot availability did not consider the number of packets that were already in the guest Rx queue. This could allow the queue to grow without bound. The guest stops consuming packets and the ring was allowed to fill leaving S slot free. Netback queues a packet requiring more than S slots (ensuring that the ring stays with S slots free). Netback queue indefinately packets provided that then require S or fewer slots. 2. The Rx stall detection is not triggered in this case since the (host) Tx queue is not stopped. 3. If the Tx queue is stopped and a guest Rx interrupt occurs, netback will consider this an Rx purge event which may result in it taking the carrier down unnecessarily. It also considers a queue with only 1 slot free as unstalled (even though the next packet might not fit in this). The internal guest Rx queue is limited by a byte length (to 512 Kib, enough for half the ring). The (host) Tx queue is stopped and started based on this limit. This sets an upper bound on the amount of memory used by packets on the internal queue. This allows the estimatation of the number of slots for an skb to be removed (it wasn't a very good estimate anyway). Instead, the guest Rx thread just waits for enough free slots for a maximum sized packet. skbs queued on the internal queue have an 'expires' time (set to the current time plus the drain timeout). The guest Rx thread will detect when the skb at the head of the queue has expired and discard expired skbs. This sets a clear upper bound on the length of time an skb can be queued for. For a guest being destroyed the maximum time needed to wait for all the packets it sent to be dropped is still the drain timeout (10 s) since it will not be sending new packets. Rx stall detection is reintroduced in a later commit. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is a very slow way to drain the queues, consumes unnecessary resources and slows down other guests shutdown. This patch change the behaviour by turning the carrier off when that timer fires, so all the packets are freed up which were stucked waiting for that vif. Instead of the rx_queue_purge bool it uses the VIF_STATUS_RX_PURGE_EVENT bit to signal the thread that either the timeout happened or an RX interrupt arrived, so the thread can check what it should do. It also disables NAPI, so the guest can't transmit, but leaves the interrupts on, so it can resurrect. Only the queues which brought down the interface can enable it again, the bit QUEUE_STATUS_RX_STALLED makes sure of that.

2014-07-20xen-netback: Fix releasing frag_list skbs in error pathZoltan Kiss1-0/+9
When the grant operations failed, the skb is freed up eventually, and it tries to release the frags, if there is any. For the main skb nr_frags is set to 0 to avoid this, but on the frag_list it iterates through the frags array, and tries to call put_page on the page pointer which contains garbage at that time.

This patch adds debugfs capabilities to netback. There used to be a similar patch floating around for classic kernel, but it used procfs. It is based on a very similar blkback patch. It creates xen-netback/[vifname]/io_ring_q[queueno] files, reading them output various ring variables etc. Writing "kick" into it imitates an interrupt happened, it can be useful to check whether the ring is just stalled due to a missed interrupt.

2014-06-05xen-netback: Fix handling of skbs requiring too many slotsZoltan Kiss1-11/+25
A recent commit (a02eb4 "xen-netback: worse-case estimate in xenvif_rx_action is underestimating") capped the slot estimation to MAX_SKB_FRAGS, but that triggers the next BUG_ON a few lines down, as the packet consumes more slots than estimated. This patch introduces full_coalesce on the skb callback buffer, which is used in start_new_rx_buffer() to decide whether netback needs coalescing more aggresively. By doing that, no packet should need more than (XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE + 1) / PAGE_SIZE data slots (excluding the optional GSO slot, it doesn't carry data, therefore irrelevant in this case), as the provided buffers are fully utilized.

2014-06-04xen-netback: Add support for multiple queuesAndrew J. Bennieston1-0/+8
Builds on the refactoring of the previous patch to implement multiple queues between xen-netfront and xen-netback. Writes the maximum supported number of queues into XenStore, and reads the values written by the frontend to determine how many queues to use. Ring references and event channels are read from XenStore on a per-queue basis and rings are connected accordingly. Also adds code to handle the cleanup of any already initialised queues if the initialisation of a subsequent queue fails. Signed-off-by: Andrew J.

In preparation for multi-queue support in xen-netback, move the queue-specific data from struct xenvif into struct xenvif_queue, and update the rest of the code to use this. Also adds loops over queues where appropriate, even though only one is configured at this point, and uses alloc_netdev_mq() and the corresponding multi-queue netif wake/start/stop functions in preparation for multiple active queues. Finally, implements a trivial queue selection function suitable for ndo_select_queue, which simply returns 0 for a single queue and uses skb_get_hash() to compute the queue index otherwise.

2014-05-16xen-netback: fix race between napi_complete() and interrupt handlerDavid Vrabel1-2/+2
When the NAPI budget was not all used, xenvif_poll() would call napi_complete() /after/ enabling the interrupt. This resulted in a race between the napi_complete() and the napi_schedule() in the interrupt handler. The use of local_irq_save/restore() avoided by race iff the handler is running on the same CPU but not if it was running on a different CPU. Fix this properly by calling napi_complete() before reenabling interrupts (in the xenvif_napi_schedule_or_enable_irq() call).

2014-05-15xen-netback: Fix grant ref resolution in RX pathZoltan Kiss1-18/+80
The original series for reintroducing grant mapping for netback had a patch [1] to handle receiving of packets from an another VIF. Grant copy on the receiving side needs the grant ref of the page to set up the op. The original patch assumed (wrongly) that the frags array haven't changed. In the case reported by Sander, the sending guest sent a packet where the linear buffer and the first frag were under PKT_PROT_LEN (=128) bytes. xenvif_tx_submit() then pulled up the linear area to 128 bytes, and ditched the first frag. The receiving side had an off-by-one problem when gathered the grant refs. This patch fixes that by checking whether the actual frag's page pointer is the same as the page in the original frag list. It can handle any kind of changes on the original frags array, like: - removing granted frags from the array at any point - adding local pages to the frags list anywhere - reordering the frags It's optimized to the most common case, when there is 1:1 relation between the frags and the list, plus works optimal when frags are removed from the end or the beginning.

2014-04-03xen-netback: Grant copy the header instead of map and memcpyZoltan Kiss1-53/+69
An old inefficiency of the TX path that we are grant mapping the first slot, and then copy the header part to the linear area. Instead, doing a grant copy for that header straight on is more reasonable. Especially because there are ongoing efforts to make Xen avoiding TLB flush after unmap when the page were not touched in Dom0. In the original way the memcpy ruined that. The key changes: - the vif has a tx_copy_ops array again - xenvif_tx_build_gops sets up the grant copy operations - we don't have to figure out whether the header and first frag are on the same grant mapped page or not Note, we only grant copy PKT_PROT_LEN bytes from the first slot, the rest (if any) will be on the first frag, which is grant mapped. If the first slot is smaller than PKT_PROT_LEN, then we grant copy that, and later __pskb_pull_tail will pull more from the frags (if any) Signed-off-by: Zoltan Kiss <zoltan.kiss@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: Paul Durrant <paul.durrant@citrix.com> Acked-by: Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-04-01xen-netback: disable rogue vif in kthread contextWei Liu1-2/+14
When netback discovers frontend is sending malformed packet it will disables the interface which serves that frontend. However disabling a network interface involving taking a mutex which cannot be done in softirq context, so we need to defer this process to kthread context. This patch does the following: 1. introduce a flag to indicate the interface is disabled. 2. check that flag in TX path, don't do any work if it's true. 3. check that flag in RX path, turn off that interface if it's true. The reason to disable it in RX path is because RX uses kthread. After this change the behavior of netback is still consistent -- it won't do any TX work for a rogue frontend, and the interface will be eventually turned off. Also change a "continue" to "break" after xenvif_fatal_tx_err, as it doesn't make sense to continue processing packets if frontend is rogue. This is a fix for XSA-90.
