2015-04-23sunrpc: make debugfs file creation failure non-fatalJeff Layton4-38/+32
v2: gracefully handle the case where some dentry pointers end up NULL and be more dilligent about zeroing out dentry pointers We currently have a problem that SELinux policy is being enforced when creating debugfs files. If a debugfs file is created as a side effect of doing some syscall, then that creation can fail if the SELinux policy for that process prevents it. This seems wrong. We don't do that for files under /proc, for instance, so Bruce has proposed a patch to fix that. While discussing that patch however, Greg K.H. stated: "No kernel code should care / fail if a debugfs function fails, so please fix up the sunrpc code first." This patch converts all of the sunrpc debugfs setup code to be void return functins, and the callers to not look for errors from those functions. This should allow rpc_clnt and rpc_xprt creation to work, even if the kernel fails to create debugfs files for some reason. Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Acked-by: "J.

2015-04-22crush: straw2 bucket type with an efficient 64-bit crush_ln()Ilya Dryomov4-0/+306
This is an improved straw bucket that correctly avoids any data movement between items A and B when neither A nor B's weights are changed. Said differently, if we adjust the weight of item C (including adding it anew or removing it completely), we will only see inputs move to or from C, never between other items in the bucket. Notably, there is not intermediate scaling factor that needs to be calculated. The mapping function is a simple function of the item weights. The below commits were squashed together into this one (mostly to avoid adding and then yanking a ~6000 lines worth of crush_ln_table): - crush: add a straw2 bucket type - crush: add crush_ln to calculate nature log efficently - crush: improve straw2 adjustment slightly - crush: change crush_ln to provide 32 more digits - crush: fix crush_get_bucket_item_weight and bucket destroy for straw2 - crush/mapper: fix divide-by-0 in straw2 (with div64_s64() for draw = ln / w and INT64_MIN -> S64_MIN - need to create a proper compat.h in ceph.git) Reflects ceph.git commits 242293c908e923d474910f2b8203fa3b41eb5a53, 32a1ead92efcd351822d22a5fc37d159c65c1338, 6289912418c4a3597a11778bcf29ed5415117ad9, 35fcb04e2945717cf5cfe150b9fa89cb3d2303a1, 6445d9ee7290938de1e4ee9563912a6ab6d8ee5f, b5921d55d16796e12d66ad2c4add7305f9ce2353.

Crush temporary buffers are allocated as per replica size configured by the user. When there are more final osds (to be selected as per rule) than the replicas, buffer overlaps and it causes crash.

2015-04-17act_mirred: Fix bogus header when redirecting from VLANHerbert Xu1-1/+1
When you redirect a VLAN device to any device, you end up with crap in af_packet on the xmit path because hard_header_len is not equal to skb->mac_len. So the redirected packet contains four extra bytes at the start which then gets interpreted as part of the MAC address. This patch fixes this by only pushing skb->mac_len.

Fix this using rcu_read_lock() to prevent module unload. 2) Some TCP Congestion Control modules provide information but again this is not safe against icsk->icsk_ca_ops change and nla_put() errors were ignored.

2015-04-16bpf: fix bpf helpers to use skb->mac_header relative offsetsAlexei Starovoitov3-9/+38
For the short-term solution, lets fix bpf helper functions to use skb->mac_header relative offsets instead of skb->data in order to get the same eBPF programs with cls_bpf and act_bpf work on ingress and egress qdisc path. We need to ensure that mac_header is set before calling into programs. This is effectively the first option from below referenced discussion. More long term solution for LD_ABS|LD_IND instructions will be more intrusive but also more beneficial than this, and implemented later as it's too risky at this point in time. I.e., we plan to look into the option of moving skb_pull() out of eth_type_trans() and into netif_receive_skb() as has been suggested as second option. Meanwhile, this solution ensures ingress can be used with eBPF, too, and that we won't run into ABI troubles later. For dealing with negative offsets inside eBPF helper functions, we've implemented bpf_skb_clone_unwritable() to test for unwriteable headers.

2015-04-15lib/string_helpers.c: change semantics of string_escape_memRasmus Villemoes1-3/+5
The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf). So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like: Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination. It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences, otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever they previously contained. This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem(); since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops. In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref) if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for kasprintf("%pE") to work.

2015-04-15kernel: conditionally support non-root users, groups and capabilitiesIulia Manda1-0/+2
There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems, supporting multiple users is not necessary. This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled under CONFIG_EXPERT menu. When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case and processes always have all capabilities. The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid, setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups, getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset. Also, groups.c is compiled out completely. In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid adding two ifdef blocks. This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much. The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work. Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.

2015-04-14mm: remove GFP_THISNODEDavid Rientjes1-1/+3
NOTE: this is not about __GFP_THISNODE, this is only about GFP_THISNODE. GFP_THISNODE is a secret combination of gfp bits that have different behavior than expected. It is a combination of __GFP_THISNODE, __GFP_NORETRY, and __GFP_NOWARN and is special-cased in the page allocator slowpath to fail without trying reclaim even though it may be used in combination with __GFP_WAIT. An example of the problem this creates: commit e97ca8e5b864 ("mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify") fixed up many users of GFP_THISNODE that really just wanted __GFP_THISNODE. The problem doesn't end there, however, because even it was a no-op for alloc_misplaced_dst_page(), which also sets __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN, and migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), where __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWAIT is set in GFP_TRANSHUGE. Converting GFP_THISNODE to __GFP_THISNODE is a no-op in these cases since the page allocator special-cases __GFP_THISNODE && __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN. It's time to just remove GFP_THISNODE entirely. We leave __GFP_THISNODE to restrict an allocation to a local node, but remove GFP_THISNODE and its obscurity. Instead, we require that a caller clear __GFP_WAIT if it wants to avoid reclaim. This allows the aforementioned functions to actually reclaim as they should. It also enables any future callers that want to do __GFP_THISNODE but also __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN to reclaim. The rule is simple: if you don't want to reclaim, then don't set __GFP_WAIT. Aside: ovs_flow_stats_update() really wants to avoid reclaim as well, so it is unchanged.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next A final pull request, I know it's very late but this time I think it's worth a bit of rush. The following patchset contains Netfilter/nf_tables updates for net-next, more specifically concatenation support and dynamic stateful expression instantiation. This also comes with a couple of small patches. One to fix the ebtables.h userspace header and another to get rid of an obsolete example file in tree that describes a nf_tables expression. This time, I decided to paste the original descriptions. This will result in a rather large commit description, but I think these bytes to keep. Patrick McHardy says: ==================== netfilter: nf_tables: concatenation support The following patches add support for concatenations, which allow multi dimensional exact matches in O(1). The basic idea is to split the data registers, currently consisting of 4 registers of 16 bytes each, into smaller units, 16 registers of 4 bytes each, and making sure each register store always leaves the full 32 bit in a well defined state, meaning smaller stores will zero the remaining bits. Based on that, we can load multiple adjacent registers with different values, thereby building a concatenated bigger value, and use that value for set lookups. Sets are changed to use variable sized extensions for their key and data values, removing the fixed limit of 16 bytes while saving memory if less space is needed. As a side effect, these patches will allow some nice optimizations in the future, like using jhash2 in nft_hash, removing the masking in nft_cmp_fast, optimized data comparison using 32 bit word size etc. These are not done so far however. The patches are split up as follows: * the first five patches add length validation to register loads and stores to make sure we stay within bounds and prepare the validation functions for the new addressing mode * the next patches prepare for changing to 32 bit addressing by introducing a struct nft_regs, which holds the verdict register as well as the data registers. The verdict members are moved to a new struct nft_verdict to allow to pull struct nft_data out of the stack. * the next patches contain preparatory conversions of expressions and sets to use 32 bit addressing * the next patch introduces so far unused register conversion helpers for parsing and dumping register numbers over netlink * following is the real conversion to 32 bit addressing, consisting of replacing struct nft_data in struct nft_regs by an array of u32s and actually translating and validating the new register numbers. * the final two patches add support for variable sized data items and variable sized keys / data in set elements The patches have been verified to work correctly with nft binaries using both old and new addressing. ==================== Patrick McHardy says: ==================== netfilter: nf_tables: dynamic stateful expression instantiation The following patches are the grand finale of my nf_tables set work, using all the building blocks put in place by the previous patches to support something like iptables hashlimit, but a lot more powerful. Sets are extended to allow attaching expressions to set elements. The dynset expression dynamically instantiates these expressions based on a template when creating new set elements and evaluates them for all new or updated set members. In combination with concatenations this effectively creates state tables for arbitrary combinations of keys, using the existing expression types to maintain that state. Regular set GC takes care of purging expired states. We currently support two different stateful expressions, counter and limit. Using limit as a template we can express the functionality of hashlimit, but completely unrestricted in the combination of keys. Using counter we can perform accounting for arbitrary flows. The following examples from patch 5/5 show some possibilities. Userspace syntax is still WIP, especially the listing of state tables will most likely be seperated from normal set listings and use a more structured format: 1. Limit the rate of new SSH connections per host, similar to iptables hashlimit: flow ip saddr timeout 60s \ limit 10/second \ accept 2. Account network traffic between each set of /24 networks: flow ip saddr & 255.255.255.0 . ip daddr & 255.255.255.0 \ counter 3. Account traffic to each host per user: flow skuid . ip daddr \ counter 4. Account traffic for each combination of source address and TCP flags: flow ip saddr . tcp flags \ counter The resulting set content after a Xmas-scan look like this: { 192.168.122.1 . fin | psh | urg : counter packets 1001 bytes 40040, 192.168.122.1 . ack : counter packets 74 bytes 3848, 192.168.122.1 . psh | ack : counter packets 35 bytes 3144 } In the future the "expressions attached to elements" will be extended to also support user created non-stateful expressions to allow to efficiently select beween a set of parameter sets, f.i. a set of log statements with different prefixes based on the interface, which currently require one rule each. This will most likely have to wait until the next kernel version though. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: "Some clean ups and small fixes, but the biggest change is the addition of the TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro that can be used by tracepoints. Tracepoints have helper functions for the TP_printk() called __print_symbolic() and __print_flags() that lets a numeric number be displayed as a a human comprehensible text. What is placed in the TP_printk() is also shown in the tracepoint format file such that user space tools like perf and trace-cmd can parse the binary data and express the values too. Unfortunately, the way the TRACE_EVENT() macro works, anything placed in the TP_printk() will be shown pretty much exactly as is. The problem arises when enums are used. That's because unlike macros, enums will not be changed into their values by the C pre-processor. Thus, the enum string is exported to the format file, and this makes it useless for user space tools. The TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() solves this by converting the enum strings in the TP_printk() format into their number, and that is what is shown to user space. For example, the tracepoint tlb_flush currently has this in its format file: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH, "flush on task switch" }, { TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN, "remote shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN, "local shootdown" }, { TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN, "local mm shootdown" }) After adding: TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_FLUSH_ON_TASK_SWITCH); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_REMOTE_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_SHOOTDOWN); TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(TLB_LOCAL_MM_SHOOTDOWN); Its format file will contain this: __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 0, "flush on task switch" }, { 1, "remote shootdown" }, { 2, "local shootdown" }, { 3, "local mm shootdown" })" * tag 'trace-v4.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (27 commits) tracing: Add enum_map file to show enums that have been mapped writeback: Export enums used by tracepoint to user space v4l: Export enums used by tracepoints to user space SUNRPC: Export enums in tracepoints to user space mm: tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to user space irq/tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to user space f2fs: Export the enums in the tracepoints to userspace net/9p/tracing: Export enums in tracepoints to userspace x86/tlb/trace: Export enums in used by tlb_flush tracepoint tracing/samples: Update the trace-event-sample.h with TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() tracing: Allow for modules to convert their enums to values tracing: Add TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() macro to map enums to their values tracing: Update trace-event-sample with TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR documentation tracing: Give system name a pointer brcmsmac: Move each system tracepoints to their own header iwlwifi: Move each system tracepoints to their own header mac80211: Move message tracepoints to their own header tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to xhci-hcd tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to kvm-s390 tracing: Add TRACE_SYSTEM_VAR to intel-sst ...

2015-04-13tcp/dccp: get rid of central timewait timerEric Dumazet10-288/+60
Using a timer wheel for timewait sockets was nice ~15 years ago when memory was expensive and machines had a single processor. This does not scale, code is ugly and source of huge latencies (Typically 30 ms have been seen, cpus spinning on death_lock spinlock.) We can afford to use an extra 64 bytes per timewait sock and spread timewait load to all cpus to have better behavior.
