2021-10-18net: sched: Merge Qdisc::bstats and Qdisc::cpu_bstats data typesAhmed S. Darwish1-1/+1
The only factor differentiating per-CPU bstats data type (struct gnet_stats_basic_cpu) from the packed non-per-CPU one (struct gnet_stats_basic_packed) was a u64_stats sync point inside the former. The two data types are now equivalent: earlier commits added a u64_stats sync point to the latter. Combine both data types into "struct gnet_stats_basic_sync". This eliminates redundancy and simplifies the bstats read/write APIs. Use u64_stats_t for bstats "packets" and "bytes" data types. On 64-bit architectures, u64_stats sync points do not use sequence counter protection. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.

2021-08-02net_sched: refactor TC action init APICong Wang1-1/+2
TC action ->init() API has 10 parameters, it becomes harder to read. Some of them are just boolean and can be replaced by flags. Similarly for the internal API tcf_action_init() and tcf_exts_validate(). This patch converts them to flags and fold them into the upper 16 bits of "flags", whose lower 16 bits are still reserved for user-space. More specifically, the following kernel flags are introduced: TCA_ACT_FLAGS_POLICE replace 'name' in a few contexts, to distinguish whether it is compatible with policer. TCA_ACT_FLAGS_BIND replaces 'bind', to indicate whether this action is bound to a filter. TCA_ACT_FLAGS_REPLACE replaces 'ovr' in most contexts, means we are replacing an existing action. TCA_ACT_FLAGS_NO_RTNL replaces 'rtnl_held' but has the opposite meaning, because we still hold RTNL in most cases. The only user-space flag TCA_ACT_FLAGS_NO_PERCPU_STATS is untouched and still stored as before. I have tested this patch with tdc and I do not see any failure related to this patch.

2021-07-28net/sched: act_skbmod: Add SKBMOD_F_ECN option supportPeilin Ye1-12/+32
Currently, when doing rate limiting using the tc-police(8) action, the easiest way is to simply drop the packets which exceed or conform the configured bandwidth limit. Add a new option to tc-skbmod(8), so that users may use the ECN [1] extension to explicitly inform the receiver about the congestion instead of dropping packets "on the floor". The 2 least significant bits of the Traffic Class field in IPv4 and IPv6 headers are used to represent different ECN states [2]: 0b00: "Non ECN-Capable Transport", Non-ECT 0b10: "ECN Capable Transport", ECT(0) 0b01: "ECN Capable Transport", ECT(1) 0b11: "Congestion Encountered", CE As an example: $ tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \ matchall action skbmod ecn Doing the above marks all ECT(0) and ECT(1) packets as CE. It does NOT affect Non-ECT or non-IP packets. In the tc-police scenario mentioned above, users may pipe a tc-police action and a tc-skbmod "ecn" action together to achieve ECN-based rate limiting. For TCP connections, upon receiving a CE packet, the receiver will respond with an ECE packet, asking the sender to reduce their congestion window. However ECN also works with other L4 protocols e.g. DCCP and SCTP [2], and our implementation does not touch or care about L4 headers. The updated tc-skbmod SYNOPSIS looks like the following: tc ... action skbmod { set SETTABLE | swap SWAPPABLE | ecn } ... Only one of "set", "swap" or "ecn" shall be used in a single tc-skbmod command. Trying to use more than one of them at a time is considered undefined behavior; pipe multiple tc-skbmod commands together instead. "set" and "swap" only affect Ethernet packets, while "ecn" only affects IPv{4,6} packets. It is also worth mentioning that, in theory, the same effect could be achieved by piping a "police" action and a "bpf" action using the bpf_skb_ecn_set_ce() helper, but this requires eBPF programming from the user, thus impractical. Depends on patch "net/sched: act_skbmod: Skip non-Ethernet packets".

2021-07-20net/sched: act_skbmod: Skip non-Ethernet packetsPeilin Ye1-4/+8
Currently tcf_skbmod_act() assumes that packets use Ethernet as their L2 protocol, which is not always the case. As an example, for CAN devices: $ ip link add dev vcan0 type vcan $ ip link set up vcan0 $ tc qdisc add dev vcan0 root handle 1: htb $ tc filter add dev vcan0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \ matchall action skbmod swap mac Doing the above silently corrupts all the packets. Do not perform skbmod actions for non-Ethernet packets.

2020-09-24net_sched: defer tcf_idr_insert() in tcf_action_init_1()Cong Wang1-2/+0
All TC actions call tcf_idr_insert() for new action at the end of their ->init(), so we can actually move it to a central place in tcf_action_init_1(). And once the action is inserted into the global IDR, other parallel process could free it immediately as its refcnt is still 1, so we can not fail after this, we need to move it after the goto action validation to avoid handling the failure case after insertion. This is found during code review, is not directly triggered by syzbot. And this prepares for the next patch.

2019-08-27net_sched: fix a NULL pointer deref in ipt actionCong Wang1-1/+1
The net pointer in struct xt_tgdtor_param is not explicitly initialized therefore is still NULL when dereferencing it. So we have to find a way to pass the correct net pointer to ipt_destroy_target(). The best way I find is just saving the net pointer inside the per netns struct tcf_idrinfo, which could make this patch smaller.

2019-08-05net: sched: use temporary variable for actions indexesDmytro Linkin1-5/+6
Currently init call of all actions (except ipt) init their 'parm' structure as a direct pointer to nla data in skb. This leads to race condition when some of the filter actions were initialized successfully (and were assigned with idr action index that was written directly into nla data), but then were deleted and retried (due to following action module missing or classifier-initiated retry), in which case action init code tries to insert action to idr with index that was assigned on previous iteration. During retry the index can be reused by another action that was inserted concurrently, which causes unintended action sharing between filters. To fix described race condition, save action idr index to temporary stack-allocated variable instead on nla data.

2019-04-27netlink: make validation more configurable for future strictnessJohannes Berg1-1/+2
We currently have two levels of strict validation: 1) liberal (default) - undefined (type >= max) & NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted - garbage at end of message accepted 2) strict (opt-in) - NLA_UNSPEC attributes accepted - attribute length >= expected accepted Split out parsing strictness into four different options: * TRAILING - check that there's no trailing data after parsing attributes (in message or nested) * MAXTYPE - reject attrs > max known type * UNSPEC - reject attributes with NLA_UNSPEC policy entries * STRICT_ATTRS - strictly validate attribute size The default for future things should be *everything*. The current *_strict() is a combination of TRAILING and MAXTYPE, and is renamed to _deprecated_strict(). The current regular parsing has none of this, and is renamed to *_parse_deprecated(). Additionally it allows us to selectively set one of the new flags even on old policies. Notably, the UNSPEC flag could be useful in this case, since it can be arranged (by filling in the policy) to not be an incompatible userspace ABI change, but would then going forward prevent forgetting attribute entries. Similar can apply to the POLICY flag. We end up with the following renames: * nla_parse -> nla_parse_deprecated * nla_parse_strict -> nla_parse_deprecated_strict * nlmsg_parse -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated * nlmsg_parse_strict -> nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict * nla_parse_nested -> nla_parse_nested_deprecated * nla_validate_nested -> nla_validate_nested_deprecated Using spatch, of course: @@ expression TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_deprecated(TB, MAX, HEAD, LEN, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_parse_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_parse_deprecated_strict(NLH, HDRLEN, TB, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_parse_nested(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) +nla_parse_nested_deprecated(TB, MAX, NLA, POL, EXT) @@ expression START, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nla_validate_nested(START, MAX, POL, EXT) +nla_validate_nested_deprecated(START, MAX, POL, EXT) @@ expression NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT; @@ -nlmsg_validate(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) +nlmsg_validate_deprecated(NLH, HDRLEN, MAX, POL, EXT) For this patch, don't actually add the strict, non-renamed versions yet so that it breaks compile if I get it wrong. Also, while at it, make nla_validate and nla_parse go down to a common __nla_validate_parse() function to avoid code duplication. Ultimately, this allows us to have very strict validation for every new caller of nla_parse()/nlmsg_parse() etc as re-introduced in the next patch, while existing things will continue to work as is. In effect then, this adds fully strict validation for any new command. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2019-03-21net/sched: prepare TC actions to properly validate the control actionDavide Caratti1-0/+1
- pass a pointer to struct tcf_proto in each actions's init() handler, to allow validating the control action, checking whether the chain exists and (eventually) refcounting it. - remove code that validates the control action after a successful call to the action's init() handler, and replace it with a test that forbids addition of actions having 'goto_chain' and NULL goto_chain pointer at the same time. - add tcf_action_check_ctrlact(), that will validate the control action and eventually allocate the action 'goto_chain' within the init() handler. - add tcf_action_set_ctrlact(), that will assign the control action and swap the current 'goto_chain' pointer with the new given one. This disallows 'goto_chain' on actions that don't initialize it properly in their init() handler, i.e. calling tcf_action_check_ctrlact() after successful IDR reservation and then calling tcf_action_set_ctrlact() to assign 'goto_chain' and 'tcf_action' consistently. By doing this, the kernel does not leak anymore refcounts when a valid 'goto chain' handle is replaced in TC actions, causing kmemleak splats like the following one: # tc chain add dev dd0 chain 42 ingress protocol ip flower \ > ip_proto tcp action drop # tc chain add dev dd0 chain 43 ingress protocol ip flower \ > ip_proto udp action drop # tc filter add dev dd0 ingress matchall \ > action gact goto chain 42 index 66 # tc filter replace dev dd0 ingress matchall \ > action gact goto chain 43 index 66 # echo scan >/sys/kernel/debug/kmemleak <...> unreferenced object 0xffff93c0ee09f000 (size 1024): comm "tc", pid 2565, jiffies 4295339808 (age 65.426s) hex dump (first 32 bytes): 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00 00 00 00 08 00 06 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace: [<000000009b63f92d>] tc_ctl_chain+0x3d2/0x4c0 [<00000000683a8d72>] rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x263/0x2d0 [<00000000ddd88f8e>] netlink_rcv_skb+0x4a/0x110 [<000000006126a348>] netlink_unicast+0x1a0/0x250 [<00000000b3340877>] netlink_sendmsg+0x2c1/0x3c0 [<00000000a25a2171>] sock_sendmsg+0x36/0x40 [<00000000f19ee1ec>] ___sys_sendmsg+0x280/0x2f0 [<00000000d0422042>] __sys_sendmsg+0x5e/0xa0 [<000000007a6c61f9>] do_syscall_64+0x5b/0x180 [<00000000ccd07542>] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 [<0000000013eaa334>] 0xffffffffffffffff Fixes: db50514f9a9c ("net: sched: add termination action to allow goto chain") Fixes: 97763dc0f401 ("net_sched: reject unknown tcfa_action values") Signed-off-by: Davide Caratti <dcaratti@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-08-21net_sched: remove unnecessary ops->delete()Cong Wang1-8/+0
All ops->delete() wants is getting the tn->idrinfo, but we already have tc_action before calling ops->delete(), and tc_action has a pointer ->idrinfo. More importantly, each type of action does the same thing, that is, just calling tcf_idr_delete_index(). So it can be just removed.

Each lockless action currently does its own RCU locking in ->act(). This allows using plain RCU accessor, even if the context is really RCU BH. This change drops the per action RCU lock, replace the accessors with the _bh variant, cleans up a bit the surrounding code and documents the RCU status in the relevant header. No functional nor performance change is intended. The goal of this patch is clarifying that the RCU critical section used by the tc actions extends up to the classifier's caller. v1 -> v2: - preserve rcu lock in act_bpf: it's needed by eBPF helpers, as pointed out by Daniel v3 -> v4: - fixed some typos in the commit message (JiriP) Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Return from action init function with reference to action taken, even when overwriting existing action. Action init API initializes its fourth argument (pointer to pointer to tc action) to either existing action with same index or newly created action. In case of existing index(and bind argument is zero), init function returns without incrementing action reference counter. Caller of action init then proceeds working with action, without actually holding reference to it. This means that action could be deleted concurrently.

Fun set of conflict resolutions here... For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel adds. Trivially resolved. In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in 'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed. In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the 'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied over here. The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code. The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial, the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and here are their notes: ==================== Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch and the for-next branch. This merge resolves those conflicts and provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can be based. Conflicts: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524 (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support) add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the init/de-init functions used by mlx5. To support the new representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list added by the representors patch needed to be modified to match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup patch. Updates: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function names as changed by cleanup patch drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/ib_rep.c - Update init/de-init stage list to match new order from cleanup patch ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Typically, each TC filter has its own action. All the actions of the same type are saved in its hash table. But the hash buckets are too small that it degrades to a list. And the performance is greatly affected. For example, it takes about 0m11.914s to insert 64K rules. If we convert the hash table to IDR, it only takes about 0m1.500s. The improvement is huge.

2016-11-18netns: make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned intAlexey Dobriyan1-1/+1
Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned. There are 2 reasons to do so: 1) This field is really an index into an zero based array and thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound access by definition. 2) On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers are preffered to signed 32-bit data. "int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended to 64-bit before being used. void f(long *p, int i) { g(p[i]); } roughly translates to movsx rsi, esi mov rdi, [rsi+...] call g MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default. Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses "int" as an array index: static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id) { ... ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1]; ... } And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up. Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk messing with code generation): add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730) Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger. This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be used which is longer than [r8] However, overall balance is in negative direction: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730) function old new delta nfsd4_lock 3886 3959 +73 tipc_link_build_proto_msg 1096 1140 +44 mac80211_hwsim_new_radio 2776 2808 +32 tipc_mon_rcv 1032 1058 +26 svcauth_gss_legacy_init 1413 1429 +16 tipc_bcbase_select_primary 379 392 +13 nfsd4_exchange_id 1247 1260 +13 nfsd4_setclientid_confirm 782 793 +11 ... put_client_renew_locked 494 480 -14 ip_set_sockfn_get 730 716 -14 geneve_sock_add 829 813 -16 nfsd4_sequence_done 721 703 -18 nlmclnt_lookup_host 708 686 -22 nfsd4_lockt 1085 1063 -22 nfs_get_client 1077 1050 -27 tcf_bpf_init 1106 1076 -30 nfsd4_encode_fattr 5997 5930 -67 Total: Before=154856051, After=154854321, chg -0.00% Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-09-15net_sched: Introduce skbmod actionJamal Hadi Salim1-0/+301
This action is intended to be an upgrade from a usability perspective from pedit (as well as operational debugability). Compare this: sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \ u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \ action pedit munge offset -14 u8 set 0x02 \ munge offset -13 u8 set 0x15 \ munge offset -12 u8 set 0x15 \ munge offset -11 u8 set 0x15 \ munge offset -10 u16 set 0x1515 \ pipe to: sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \ u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \ action skbmod dmac 02:15:15:15:15:15 Also try to do a MAC address swap with pedit or worse try to debug a policy with destination mac, source mac and etherype. Then make few rules out of those and you'll get my point. In the future common use cases on pedit can be migrated to this action (as an example different fields in ip v4/6, transports like tcp/udp/sctp etc). For this first cut, this allows modifying basic ethernet header. The most important ethernet use case at the moment is when redirecting or mirroring packets to a remote machine. The dst mac address needs a re-write so that it doesnt get dropped or confuse an interconnecting (learning) switch or dropped by a target machine (which looks at the dst mac). And at times when flipping back the packet a swap of the MAC addresses is needed. Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
