2016-04-20rtnetlink: add new RTM_GETSTATS message to dump link statsRoopa Prabhu2-0/+28
This patch adds a new RTM_GETSTATS message to query link stats via netlink from the kernel. RTM_NEWLINK also dumps stats today, but RTM_NEWLINK returns a lot more than just stats and is expensive in some cases when frequent polling for stats from userspace is a common operation. RTM_GETSTATS is an attempt to provide a light weight netlink message to explicity query only link stats from the kernel on an interface. The idea is to also keep it extensible so that new kinds of stats can be added to it in the future. This patch adds the following attribute for NETDEV stats: struct nla_policy ifla_stats_policy[IFLA_STATS_MAX + 1] = { [IFLA_STATS_LINK_64] = { .len = sizeof(struct rtnl_link_stats64) }, }; Like any other rtnetlink message, RTM_GETSTATS can be used to get stats of a single interface or all interfaces with NLM_F_DUMP. Future possible new types of stat attributes: link af stats: - IFLA_STATS_LINK_IPV6 (nested. for ipv6 stats) - IFLA_STATS_LINK_MPLS (nested. for mpls/mdev stats) extended stats: - IFLA_STATS_LINK_EXTENDED (nested. extended software netdev stats like bridge, vlan, vxlan etc) - IFLA_STATS_LINK_HW_EXTENDED (nested. extended hardware stats which are available via ethtool today) This patch also declares a filter mask for all stat attributes. User has to provide a mask of stats attributes to query. filter mask can be specified in the new hdr 'struct if_stats_msg' for stats messages. Other important field in the header is the ifindex. This api can also include attributes for global stats (eg tcp) in the future. When global stats are included in a stats msg, the ifindex in the header must be zero. A single stats message cannot contain both global and netdev specific stats. To easily distinguish them, netdev specific stat attributes name are prefixed with IFLA_STATS_LINK_ Without any attributes in the filter_mask, no stats will be returned. This patch has been tested with mofified iproute2 ifstat. Suggested-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-04-19net: Align IFLA_STATS64 attributes properly on architectures that need it.David S. Miller1-0/+1
Since the nlattr header is 4 bytes in size, it can cause the netlink attribute payload to not be 8-byte aligned. This is particularly troublesome for IFLA_STATS64 which contains 64-bit statistic values. Solve this by creating a dummy IFLA_PAD attribute which has a payload which is zero bytes in size. When HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is false, we insert an IFLA_PAD attribute into the netlink response when necessary such that the IFLA_STATS64 payload will be properly aligned. With help and suggestions from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-04-07perf, bpf: allow bpf programs attach to tracepointsAlexei Starovoitov1-0/+1
introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT program type and allow it to be attached to the perf tracepoint handler, which will copy the arguments into the per-cpu buffer and pass it to the bpf program as its first argument. The layout of the fields can be discovered by doing 'cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format' prior to the compilation of the program with exception that first 8 bytes are reserved and not accessible to the program. This area is used to store the pointer to 'struct pt_regs' which some of the bpf helpers will use: +---------+ | 8 bytes | hidden 'struct pt_regs *' (inaccessible to bpf program) +---------+ | N bytes | static tracepoint fields defined in tracepoint/format (bpf readonly) +---------+ | dynamic | __dynamic_array bytes of tracepoint (inaccessible to bpf yet) +---------+ Not that all of the fields are already dumped to user space via perf ring buffer and broken application access it directly without consulting tracepoint/format. Same rule applies here: static tracepoint fields should only be accessed in a format defined in tracepoint/format. The order of fields and field sizes are not an ABI.

2016-04-07virtio: add VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_NEEDS_RESET device status bitStefan Hajnoczi1-0/+2
The VIRTIO 1.0 specification added the DEVICE_NEEDS_RESET device status bit in "VIRTIO-98: Add DEVICE_NEEDS_RESET". This patch defines the device status bit in the uapi header file so that both the kernel and userspace applications can use it. The bit is currently unused by the virtio guest drivers and vhost. According to the spec "a good implementation will try to recover by issuing a reset". This is not attempted here because it requires auditing the virtio drivers to ensure there are no resource leaks or crashes if the device needs to be reset mid-operation. See "2.1 Device Status Field" in the VIRTIO 1.0 specification for details. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2016-04-06vxlan: implement GPEJiri Benc1-0/+1
Implement VXLAN-GPE. Only COLLECT_METADATA is supported for now (it is possible to support static configuration, too, if there is demand for it). The GPE header parsing has to be moved before iptunnel_pull_header, as we need to know the protocol. v2: Removed what was called "L2 mode" in v1 of the patchset. Only "L3 mode" (now called "raw mode") is added by this patch. This mode does not allow Ethernet header to be encapsulated in VXLAN-GPE when using ip route to specify the encapsulation, IP header is encapsulated instead. The patch does support Ethernet to be encapsulated, though, using ETH_P_TEB in skb->protocol. This will be utilized by other COLLECT_METADATA users (openvswitch in particular). If there is ever demand for Ethernet encapsulation with VXLAN-GPE using ip route, it's easy to add a new flag switching the interface to "Ethernet mode" (called "L2 mode" in v1 of this patchset). For now, leave this out, it seems we don't need it. Disallowed more flag combinations, especially RCO with GPE. Added comment explaining that GBP and GPE cannot be set together.

Legacy clients don't support P2P power save mechanisms, and thus if a P2P GO has a legacy client connected to it, it has to make some changes in the PS behavior. To handle this, add an attribute to specify whether a station supports P2P PS or not. If the attribute was not specified cfg80211 will assume that station supports it for P2P GO interface, and does NOT support it for AP interface, matching the current assumptions in the code.

2016-04-05cfg80211: Allow a scan request for a specific BSSIDJouni Malinen1-1/+3
This allows scans for a specific BSSID to be optimized by the user space application by requesting the driver to set the Probe Request frame BSSID field (Address 3) to the specified BSSID instead of the wildcard BSSID. This prevents other APs from replying which reduces airtime need and latency in getting the response from the target AP through. This is an optimization and as such, it is acceptable for some of the drivers not to support the mechanism. If not supported, the wildcard BSSID will be used and more responses may be received.

2016-04-04sock: accept SO_TIMESTAMPING flags in socket cmsgSoheil Hassas Yeganeh1-0/+10
Accept SO_TIMESTAMPING in control messages of the SOL_SOCKET level as a basis to accept timestamping requests per write. This implementation only accepts TX recording flags (i.e., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_HARDWARE, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SCHED, and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK) in control messages. Users need to set reporting flags (e.g., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) per socket via socket options. This commit adds a tsflags field in sockcm_cookie which is set in __sock_cmsg_send. It only override the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_* bits in sockcm_cookie.tsflags allowing the control message to override the recording behavior per write, yet maintaining the value of other flags. This patch implements validating the control message and setting tsflags in struct sockcm_cookie. Next commits in this series will actually implement timestamping per write for different protocols.

No issue has been observed, and gcc/llvm does padding for the old struct already, where tunnel_label was not yet present, so the current code works, but since it's part of uapi, make sure we don't introduce holes in structs. Therefore, add tunnel_ext that we can use generically in future (f.e. to flag OAM messages for backends, etc).

We didn't get any response to the patch, so we took that as implicit approval. Finally, this series includes Intel's new iWARP driver for their x722 cards. It's not nearly the beast as the hfi1 driver. It also has a linux-next merge issue, but that has been resolved and it now passes just fine. Summary: - A few minor core fixups needed for the next patch series - The IB SRIOV series. This has bounced around for several versions. Of note is the fact that the first patch in this series effects the net core. It was directed to netdev and DaveM for each iteration of the series (three versions total). Dave did not object, but did not respond either. I've taken this as permission to move forward with the series. - The new Intel X722 iWARP driver - A huge set of updates to the Intel hfi1 driver. Of particular interest here is that we have left the driver in staging since it still has an API that people object to. Intel is working on a fix, but getting these patches in now helps keep me sane as the upstream and Intel's trees were over 300 patches apart" * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: (362 commits) IB/ipoib: Allow mcast packets from other VFs IB/mlx5: Implement callbacks for manipulating VFs net/mlx5_core: Implement modify HCA vport command net/mlx5_core: Add VF param when querying vport counter IB/ipoib: Add ndo operations for configuring VFs IB/core: Add interfaces to control VF attributes IB/core: Support accessing SA in virtualized environment IB/core: Add subnet prefix to port info IB/mlx5: Fix decision on using MAD_IFC net/core: Add support for configuring VF GUIDs IB/{core, ulp} Support above 32 possible device capability flags IB/core: Replace setting the zero values in ib_uverbs_ex_query_device net/mlx5_core: Introduce offload arithmetic hardware capabilities net/mlx5_core: Refactor device capability function net/mlx5_core: Fix caching ATOMIC endian mode capability ib_srpt: fix a WARN_ON() message i40iw: Replace the obsolete crypto hash interface with shash IB/hfi1: Add SDMA cache eviction algorithm IB/hfi1: Switch to using the pin query function IB/hfi1: Specify mm when releasing pages ...
2016-03-22kernel: add kcov code coverageDmitry Vyukov1-0/+10
kcov provides code coverage collection for coverage-guided fuzzing (randomized testing). Coverage-guided fuzzing is a testing technique that uses coverage feedback to determine new interesting inputs to a system. A notable user-space example is AFL (http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx/afl/). However, this technique is not widely used for kernel testing due to missing compiler and kernel support. kcov does not aim to collect as much coverage as possible. It aims to collect more or less stable coverage that is function of syscall inputs. To achieve this goal it does not collect coverage in soft/hard interrupts and instrumentation of some inherently non-deterministic or non-interesting parts of kernel is disbled (e.g. scheduler, locking). Currently there is a single coverage collection mode (tracing), but the API anticipates additional collection modes. Initially I also implemented a second mode which exposes coverage in a fixed-size hash table of counters (what Quentin used in his original patch). I've dropped the second mode for simplicity. This patch adds the necessary support on kernel side. The complimentary compiler support was added in gcc revision 231296. We've used this support to build syzkaller system call fuzzer, which has found 90 kernel bugs in just 2 months: https://github.com/google/syzkaller/wiki/Found-Bugs We've also found 30+ bugs in our internal systems with syzkaller. Another (yet unexplored) direction where kcov coverage would greatly help is more traditional "blob mutation". For example, mounting a random blob as a filesystem, or receiving a random blob over wire. Why not gcov. Typical fuzzing loop looks as follows: (1) reset coverage, (2) execute a bit of code, (3) collect coverage, repeat. A typical coverage can be just a dozen of basic blocks (e.g. an invalid input). In such context gcov becomes prohibitively expensive as reset/collect coverage steps depend on total number of basic blocks/edges in program (in case of kernel it is about 2M). Cost of kcov depends only on number of executed basic blocks/edges. On top of that, kernel requires per-thread coverage because there are always background threads and unrelated processes that also produce coverage. With inlined gcov instrumentation per-thread coverage is not possible. kcov exposes kernel PCs and control flow to user-space which is insecure. But debugfs should not be mapped as user accessible.

Pull xfs updates from Dave Chinner: "There's quite a lot in this request, and there's some cross-over with ext4, dax and quota code due to the nature of the changes being made. As for the rest of the XFS changes, there are lots of little things all over the place, which add up to a lot of changes in the end. The major changes are that we've reduced the size of the struct xfs_inode by ~100 bytes (gives an inode cache footprint reduction of >10%), the writepage code now only does a single set of mapping tree lockups so uses less CPU, delayed allocation reservations won't overrun under random write loads anymore, and we added compile time verification for on-disk structure sizes so we find out when a commit or platform/compiler change breaks the on disk structure as early as possible. Change summary: - error propagation for direct IO failures fixes for both XFS and ext4 - new quota interfaces and XFS implementation for iterating all the quota IDs in the filesystem - locking fixes for real-time device extent allocation - reduction of duplicate information in the xfs and vfs inode, saving roughly 100 bytes of memory per cached inode. - buffer flag cleanup - rework of the writepage code to use the generic write clustering mechanisms - several fixes for inode flag based DAX enablement - rework of remount option parsing - compile time verification of on-disk format structure sizes - delayed allocation reservation overrun fixes - lots of little error handling fixes - small memory leak fixes - enable xfsaild freezing again" * tag 'xfs-for-linus-4.6-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dgc/linux-xfs: (66 commits) xfs: always set rvalp in xfs_dir2_node_trim_free xfs: ensure committed is initialized in xfs_trans_roll xfs: borrow indirect blocks from freed extent when available xfs: refactor delalloc indlen reservation split into helper xfs: update freeblocks counter after extent deletion xfs: debug mode forced buffered write failure xfs: remove impossible condition xfs: check sizes of XFS on-disk structures at compile time xfs: ioends require logically contiguous file offsets xfs: use named array initializers for log item dumping xfs: fix computation of inode btree maxlevels xfs: reinitialise per-AG structures if geometry changes during recovery xfs: remove xfs_trans_get_block_res xfs: fix up inode32/64 (re)mount handling xfs: fix format specifier , should be %llx and not %llu xfs: sanitize remount options xfs: convert mount option parsing to tokens xfs: fix two memory leaks in xfs_attr_list.c error paths xfs: XFS_DIFLAG2_DAX limited by PAGE_SIZE xfs: dynamically switch modes when XFS_DIFLAG2_DAX is set/cleared ...

Pull x86 protection key support from Ingo Molnar: "This tree adds support for a new memory protection hardware feature that is available in upcoming Intel CPUs: 'protection keys' (pkeys). There's a background article at LWN.net: https://lwn.net/Articles/643797/ The gist is that protection keys allow the encoding of user-controllable permission masks in the pte. So instead of having a fixed protection mask in the pte (which needs a system call to change and works on a per page basis), the user can map a (handful of) protection mask variants and can change the masks runtime relatively cheaply, without having to change every single page in the affected virtual memory range. This allows the dynamic switching of the protection bits of large amounts of virtual memory, via user-space instructions. It also allows more precise control of MMU permission bits: for example the executable bit is separate from the read bit (see more about that below). This tree adds the MM infrastructure and low level x86 glue needed for that, plus it adds a high level API to make use of protection keys - if a user-space application calls: mmap(..., PROT_EXEC); or mprotect(ptr, sz, PROT_EXEC); (note PROT_EXEC-only, without PROT_READ/WRITE), the kernel will notice this special case, and will set a special protection key on this memory range. It also sets the appropriate bits in the Protection Keys User Rights (PKRU) register so that the memory becomes unreadable and unwritable. So using protection keys the kernel is able to implement 'true' PROT_EXEC on x86 CPUs: without protection keys PROT_EXEC implies PROT_READ as well. Unreadable executable mappings have security advantages: they cannot be read via information leaks to figure out ASLR details, nor can they be scanned for ROP gadgets - and they cannot be used by exploits for data purposes either. We know about no user-space code that relies on pure PROT_EXEC mappings today, but binary loaders could start making use of this new feature to map binaries and libraries in a more secure fashion. There is other pending pkeys work that offers more high level system call APIs to manage protection keys - but those are not part of this pull request. Right now there's a Kconfig that controls this feature (CONFIG_X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS) that is default enabled (like most x86 CPU feature enablement code that has no runtime overhead), but it's not user-configurable at the moment. If there's any serious problem with this then we can make it configurable and/or flip the default" * 'mm-pkeys-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (38 commits) x86/mm/pkeys: Fix mismerge of protection keys CPUID bits mm/pkeys: Fix siginfo ABI breakage caused by new u64 field x86/mm/pkeys: Fix access_error() denial of writes to write-only VMA mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Add execute-only protection keys support x86/mm/pkeys: Create an x86 arch_calc_vm_prot_bits() for VMA flags x86/mm/pkeys: Allow kernel to modify user pkey rights register x86/fpu: Allow setting of XSAVE state x86/mm: Factor out LDT init from context init mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Add arch_validate_pkey() mm/core, arch, powerpc: Pass a protection key in to calc_vm_flag_bits() x86/mm/pkeys: Actually enable Memory Protection Keys in the CPU x86/mm/pkeys: Add Kconfig prompt to existing config option x86/mm/pkeys: Dump pkey from VMA in /proc/pid/smaps x86/mm/pkeys: Dump PKRU with other kernel registers mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Differentiate instruction fetches x86/mm/pkeys: Optimize fault handling in access_error() mm/core: Do not enforce PKEY permissions on remote mm access um, pkeys: Add UML arch_*_access_permitted() methods mm/gup, x86/mm/pkeys: Check VMAs and PTEs for protection keys x86/mm/gup: Simplify get_user_pages() PTE bit handling ...

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Highlights: 1) Support more Realtek wireless chips, from Jes Sorenson. 2) New BPF types for per-cpu hash and arrap maps, from Alexei Starovoitov. 3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov. 4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing of incoming TCP/UDP connections. The muxing can be done using a BPF program which hashes the incoming packet. From Craig Gallek. 5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based interface. BPF programs can be used to determine the message boundaries. From Tom Herbert. 6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca. 7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface with lots of configured addresses. We were doing things like traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as well. 8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer. 9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for ixgbe, from John Fastabend. 10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis, from Kan Liang. 11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported. From David Decotigny. 12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types (ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device level attributes as a whole. From Jiri Pirko. 13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai. 14) Add "Local Checksum Offload". Basically, for a tunneled packet the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage of that in various ways.
