2018-09-12scsi: libcxgbi: fib6_ino reference in rt6_info is rcu protectedDavid Ahern1-0/+19
The fib6_info reference in rt6_info is rcu protected. Add a helper to extract prefsrc from and update cxgbi_check_route6 to use it.

2018-09-10net/ipv6: Remove rt6i_prefsrcDavid Ahern1-1/+0
After the conversion to fib6_info, rt6i_prefsrc has a single user that reads the value and otherwise it is only set. The one reader can be converted to use rt->from so rt6i_prefsrc can be removed, reducing rt6_info by another 20 bytes. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-07-23ipv6: use fib6_info_hold_safe() when necessaryWei Wang1-0/+5
In the code path where only rcu read lock is held, e.g. in the route lookup code path, it is not safe to directly call fib6_info_hold() because the fib6_info may already have been deleted but still exists in the rcu grace period. Holding reference to it could cause double free and crash the kernel. This patch adds a new function fib6_info_hold_safe() and replace fib6_info_hold() in all necessary places. Syzbot reported 3 crash traces because of this. One of them is: 8021q: adding VLAN 0 to HW filter on device team0 IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): team0: link becomes ready dst_release: dst:(____ptrval____) refcnt:-1 dst_release: dst:(____ptrval____) refcnt:-2 WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 4845 at include/net/dst.h:239 dst_hold include/net/dst.h:239 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 4845 at include/net/dst.h:239 ip6_setup_cork+0xd66/0x1830 net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1204 dst_release: dst:(____ptrval____) refcnt:-1 Kernel panic - not syncing: panic_on_warn set ...

Does a fib lookup, including rules, but returns a FIB entry, fib6_info, rather than a dst based rt6_info. fib6_lookup is any where from 140% (MULTIPLE_TABLES config disabled) to 60% faster than any of the dst based lookup methods (without custom rules) and 25% faster with custom rules (e.g., l3mdev rule). Since the lookup function has a completely different signature, fib6_rule_action is split into 2 paths: the existing one is renamed __fib6_rule_action and a new one for the fib6_info path is added. fib6_rule_action decides which to call based on the lookup_ptr. If it is fib6_table_lookup then the new path is taken. Caller must hold rcu lock as no reference is taken on the returned fib entry. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Acked-by: David S.

2018-04-21net/ipv6: Make from in rt6_info rcu protectedDavid Ahern1-4/+6
When a dst entry is created from a fib entry, the 'from' in rt6_info is set to the fib entry. The 'from' reference is used most notably for cookie checking - making sure stale dst entries are updated if the fib entry is changed. When a fib entry is deleted, the pcpu routes on it are walked releasing the fib6_info reference. This is needed for the fib6_info cleanup to happen and to make sure all device references are released in a timely manner. There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle this race using rcu on from.

Similar to IPv4, add fib metrics to the fib struct, which at the moment is rt6_info. Will be moved to fib6_info in a later patch. Copy metrics into dst by reference using refcount. To make the transition: - add dst_metrics to rt6_info. Default to dst_default_metrics if no metrics are passed during route add. No need for a separate pmtu entry; it can reference the MTU slot in fib6_metrics - ip6_convert_metrics allocates memory in the FIB entry and uses ip_metrics_convert to copy from netlink attribute to metrics entry - the convert metrics call is done in ip6_route_info_create simplifying the route add path + fib6_commit_metrics and fib6_copy_metrics and the temporary mx6_config are no longer needed - add fib6_metric_set helper to change the value of a metric in the fib entry since dst_metric_set can no longer be used - cow_metrics for IPv6 can drop to dst_cow_metrics_generic - rt6_dst_from_metrics_check is no longer needed - rt6_fill_node needs the FIB entry and dst as separate arguments to keep compatibility with existing output. Current dst address is renamed to dest. (to be consistent with IPv4 rt6_fill_node really should be split into 2 functions similar to fib_dump_info and rt_fill_info) - rt6_fill_node no longer needs the temporary metrics variable Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This is equivalent to the addition of the route to the FIB tree and we should therefore take care of updating the sernum of all the parent nodes of the node where the route is stored. Otherwise, we risk sockets caching and using sub-optimal dst entries. Export the function that performs the above, so that it could be invoked from fib6_ifup() later on.

2018-01-07ipv6: Add explicit flush indication to routesIdo Schimmel1-1/+2
When routes that are a part of a multipath route are evaluated by fib6_ifdown() in response to NETDEV_DOWN and NETDEV_UNREGISTER events the state of their sibling routes is not considered. This will change in subsequent patches in order to align IPv6 with IPv4's behavior. For example, when the last sibling in a multipath route becomes dead, the entire multipath route needs to be removed. To prevent the tree walker from re-evaluating all the sibling routes each time, we can simply evaluate them once - when the first sibling is traversed. If we determine the entire multipath route needs to be removed, then the 'should_flush' bit is set in all the siblings, which will cause the walker to flush them when it traverses them.

2017-10-07ipv6: replace rwlock with rcu and spinlock in fib6_tableWei Wang1-8/+16
With all the preparation work before, we are now ready to replace rwlock with rcu and spinlock in fib6_table. That means now all fib6_node in fib6_table are protected by rcu. And when freeing fib6_node, call_rcu() is used to wait for the rcu grace period before releasing the memory. When accessing fib6_node, corresponding rcu APIs need to be used. And all previous sessions protected by the write lock will now be protected by the spin lock per table. All previous sessions protected by read lock will now be protected by rcu_read_lock(). A couple of things to note here: 1. As part of the work of replacing rwlock with rcu, the linked list of fn->leaf now has to be rcu protected as well. So both fn->leaf and rt->dst.rt6_next are now __rcu tagged and corresponding rcu APIs are used when manipulating them. 2. For fn->rr_ptr, first of all, it also needs to be rcu protected now and is tagged with __rcu and rcu APIs are used in corresponding places. Secondly, fn->rr_ptr is changed in rt6_select() which is a reader thread. This makes the issue a bit complicated. We think a valid solution for it is to let rt6_select() grab the tb6_lock if it decides to change it. As it is not in the normal operation and only happens when there is no valid neighbor cache for the route, we think the performance impact should be low. 3. fib6_walk_continue() has to be called with tb6_lock held even in the route dumping related functions, e.g. inet6_dump_fib(), fib6_tables_dump() and ipv6_route_seq_ops. It is because fib6_walk_continue() makes modifications to the walker structure, and so are fib6_repair_tree() and fib6_del_route(). In order to do proper syncing between them, we need to let fib6_walk_continue() hold the lock. We may be able to do further improvement on the way we do the tree walk to get rid of the need for holding the spin lock. But not for now. 4. When fib6_del_route() removes a route from the tree, we no longer mark rt->dst.rt6_next to NULL to make simultaneous reader be able to further traverse the list with rcu. However, rt->dst.rt6_next is only valid within this same rcu period. No one should access it later. 5. All the operation of atomic_inc(rt->rt6i_ref) is changed to be performed before we publish this route (either by linking it to fn->leaf or insert it in the list pointed by fn->leaf) just to be safe because as soon as we publish the route, some read thread will be able to access it.

2017-10-07ipv6: update fn_sernum after route is inserted to treeWei Wang1-0/+2
fib6_add() logic currently calls fib6_add_1() to figure out what node should be used for the newly added route and then call fib6_add_rt2node() to insert the route to the node. And during the call of fib6_add_1(), fn_sernum is updated for all nodes that share the same prefix as the new route. This does not have issue in the current code because reader thread will not be able to access the tree while writer thread is inserting new route to it. However, it is not the case once we transition to use RCU. Reader thread could potentially see the new fn_sernum before the new route is inserted. As a result, reader thread's route lookup will return a stale route with the new fn_sernum. In order to solve this issue, we remove all the update of fn_sernum in fib6_add_1(), and instead, introduce a new function that updates fn_sernum for all related nodes and call this functions once the route is successfully inserted to the tree. Also, smp_wmb() is used after a route is successfully inserted into the fib tree and right before the updated of fn->sernum. And smp_rmb() is used right after fn->sernum is accessed in rt6_get_cookie_safe(). This is to guarantee that when the reader thread sees the new fn->sernum, the new route is already inserted in the tree in memory.

2017-10-07ipv6: hook up exception table to store dst cacheWei Wang1-1/+0
This commit makes use of the exception hash table implementation to store dst caches created by pmtu discovery and ip redirect into the hash table under the rt_info and no longer inserts these routes into fib6 tree. This makes the fib6 tree only contain static configured routes and could now be protected by rcu instead of a rw lock. With this change, in the route lookup related functions, after finding the rt6_info with the longest prefix, we also need to search for the exception table before doing backtracking. In the route delete function, if the route being deleted is not a dst cache, deletion of this route also need to flush the whole hash table under it. If it is a dst cache, then only delete the cached dst in the hash table. Note: for fib6_walk_continue() function, w->root now is always pointing to a root node considering that fib6_prune_clones() is removed from the code. So we add a WARN_ON() msg to make sure w->root always points to a root node and also removed the update of w->root in fib6_repair_tree(). This is a prerequisite for later patch because we don't need to make w->root as rcu protected when replacing rwlock with RCU. Also, we remove all prune related variables as it is no longer used.

2017-08-22ipv6: add rcu grace period before freeing fib6_nodeWei Wang1-1/+29
We currently keep rt->rt6i_node pointing to the fib6_node for the route. And some functions make use of this pointer to dereference the fib6_node from rt structure, e.g. rt6_check(). However, as there is neither refcount nor rcu taken when dereferencing rt->rt6i_node, it could potentially cause crashes as rt->rt6i_node could be set to NULL by other CPUs when doing a route deletion. This patch introduces an rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node and makes sure the functions that dereference it takes rcu_read_lock(). Note: there is no "Fixes" tag because this bug was there in a very early stage.

2017-08-15ipv6: fib: Provide offload indication using nexthop flagsIdo Schimmel1-0/+2
IPv6 routes currently lack nexthop flags as in IPv4. This has several implications. In the forwarding path, it requires us to check the carrier state of the nexthop device and potentially ignore a linkdown route, instead of checking for RTNH_F_LINKDOWN. It also requires capable drivers to use the user facing IPv6-specific route flags to provide offload indication, instead of using the nexthop flags as in IPv4. Add nexthop flags to IPv6 routes in the 40 bytes hole and use it to provide offload indication instead of the RTF_OFFLOAD flag, which is removed while it's still not part of any official kernel release. In the near future we would like to use the field for the RTNH_F_{LINKDOWN,DEAD} flags, but this change is more involved and might not be ready in time for the current cycle.

2017-08-03ipv6: fib: Add helpers to hold / drop a reference on rt6_infoIdo Schimmel1-0/+16
Similar to commit 1c677b3d2828 ("ipv4: fib: Add fib_info_hold() helper") and commit b423cb10807b ("ipv4: fib: Export free_fib_info()") add an helper to hold a reference on rt6_info and export rt6_release() to drop it and potentially release the route. This is needed so that drivers capable of FIB offload could hold a reference on the route before queueing it for offload and drop it after the route has been programmed to the device's tables.
