2014-05-02tcp: fix cwnd limited checking to improve congestion controlEric Dumazet
Yuchung discovered tcp_is_cwnd_limited() was returning false in slow start phase even if the application filled the socket write queue. All congestion modules take into account tcp_is_cwnd_limited() before increasing cwnd, so this behavior limits slow start from probing the bandwidth at full speed. The problem is that even if write queue is full (aka we are _not_ application limited), cwnd can be under utilized if TSO should auto defer or TCP Small queues decided to hold packets. So the in_flight can be kept to smaller value, and we can get to the point tcp_is_cwnd_limited() returns false. With TCP Small Queues and FQ/pacing, this issue is more visible. We fix this by having tcp_cwnd_validate(), which is supposed to track such things, take into account unsent_segs, the number of segs that we are not sending at the moment due to TSO or TSQ, but intend to send real soon. Then when we are cwnd-limited, remember this fact while we are processing the window of ACKs that comes back. For example, suppose we have a brand new connection with cwnd=10; we are in slow start, and we send a flight of 9 packets. By the time we have received ACKs for all 9 packets we want our cwnd to be 18. We implement this by setting tp->lsnd_pending to 9, and considering ourselves to be cwnd-limited while cwnd is less than twice tp->lsnd_pending (2*9 -> 18). This makes tcp_is_cwnd_limited() more understandable, by removing the GSO/TSO kludge, that tried to work around the issue. Note the in_flight parameter can be removed in a followup cleanup patch.

Have the netlink per-protocol optional bind function return an int error code rather than void to signal a failure. This will enable netlink protocols to perform extra checks including capabilities and permissions verifications when updating memberships in multicast groups. In netlink_bind() and netlink_setsockopt() the call to the per-protocol bind function was moved above the multicast group update to prevent any access to the multicast socket groups before checking with the per-protocol bind function. This will enable the per-protocol bind function to be used to check permissions which could be denied before making them available, and to avoid the messy job of undoing the addition should the per-protocol bind function fail. The netfilter subsystem seems to be the only one currently using the per-protocol bind function. Signed-off-by: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-04-22tcp: avoid retransmits of TCP packets hanging in host queuesEric Dumazet
In commit 0e280af026a5 ("tcp: introduce TCPSpuriousRtxHostQueues SNMP counter") we added a logic to detect when a packet was retransmitted while the prior clone was still in a qdisc or driver queue. We are now confident we can do better, and catch the problem before we fragment a TSO packet before retransmit, or in TLP path. This patch fully exploits the logic by simply canceling the spurious retransmit. Original packet is in a queue and will eventually leave the host. This helps to avoid network collapses when some events make the RTO estimations very wrong, particularly when dealing with huge number of sockets with synchronized blast.

Commit a21a584d6720ce349b05795b9bcfab3de8e58419 (tipc: fix neighbor detection problem after hw address change) introduces a race condition involving tipc_disc_delete() and tipc_disc_add/remove_dest that can cause TIPC to dereference the pointer to the bearer discovery request structure after it has been freed since a stray pointer is left in the bearer structure. In order to fix the issue, the process of resetting the discovery request handler is optimized: the discovery request handler and request buffer are just reset instead of being freed, allocated and initialized. As the request point is always valid and the request's lock is taken while the request handler is reset, the race doesn't happen any more.

2014-04-22tipc: purge tipc_net_lock lockYing Xue
Now tipc routing hierarchy comprises the structures 'node', 'link'and 'bearer'. The whole hierarchy is protected by a big read/write lock, tipc_net_lock, to ensure that nothing is added or removed while code is accessing any of these structures. Obviously the locking policy makes node, link and bearer components closely bound together so that their relationship becomes unnecessarily complex. In the worst case, such locking policy not only has a negative influence on performance, but also it's prone to lead to deadlock occasionally. In order o decouple the complex relationship between bearer and node as well as link, the locking policy is adjusted as follows: - Bearer level RTNL lock is used on update side, and RCU is used on read side. Meanwhile, all bearer instances including broadcast bearer are saved into bearer_list array. - Node and link level All node instances are saved into two tipc_node_list and node_htable lists. The two lists are protected by node_list_lock on write side, and they are guarded with RCU lock on read side. All members in node structure including link instances are protected by node spin lock. - The relationship between bearer and node When link accesses bearer, it first needs to find the bearer with its bearer identity from the bearer_list array. When bearer accesses node, it can iterate the node_htable hash list with the node address to find the corresponding node. In the new locking policy, every component has its private locking solution and the relationship between bearer and node is very simple, that is, they can find each other with node address or bearer identity from node_htable hash list or bearer_list array. Until now above all changes have been done, so tipc_net_lock can be removed safely.

2014-04-22tipc: decouple the relationship between bearer and linkYing Xue
Currently on both paths of message transmission and reception, the read lock of tipc_net_lock must be held before bearer is accessed, while the write lock of tipc_net_lock has to be taken before bearer is configured. Although it can ensure that bearer is always valid on the two data paths, link and bearer is closely bound together. So as the part of effort of removing tipc_net_lock, the locking policy of bearer protection will be adjusted as below: on the two data paths, RCU is used, and on the configuration path of bearer, RTNL lock is applied. Now RCU just covers the path of message reception. To make it possible to protect the path of message transmission with RCU, link should not use its stored bearer pointer to access bearer, but it should use the bearer identity of its attached bearer as index to get bearer instance from bearer_list array, which can help us decouple the relationship between bearer and link. As a result, bearer on the path of message transmission can be safely protected by RCU when we access bearer_list array within RCU lock protection.

Currently the 'tipc_ptr' pointer is protected by tipc_net_lock write lock on write side, and RCU read lock is applied to read side. In addition, there have two paths on write side where we may change variables pointed by the 'tipc_ptr' pointer: one is to configure bearer by tipc-config tool and another one is that bearer status is changed by notification events of its attached interface. But on the latter path, we improperly deem that accessing 'tipc_ptr' pointer happens on read side with rcu_read_lock() although some variables pointed by the 'tipc_ptr' pointer are changed possibly. Moreover, as now the both paths are guarded by RTNL lock, it's better to adjust the locking policy of 'tipc_ptr' pointer protection, allowing RTNL instead of tipc_net_lock write lock to protect it on write side, which will help us purge tipc_net_lock in the future.

The busy polling socket option adds support for sockets to busy wait on data arriving on the napi queue from which they have most recently received a frame. Currently only tcp and udp support this feature, but theres no reason sctp can't do so as well.

This patch adds the helper __dev_forward_skb which is identical to dev_forward_skb except that it doesn't actually inject the skb into the stack. This is useful where we wish to have finer control over how the packet is injected, e.g., via netif_rx_ni or netif_receive_skb.

Currently, it is possible to create an SCTP socket, then switch auth_enable via sysctl setting to 1 and crash the system on connect: Oops[#1]: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper Not tainted 3.14.1-mipsgit-20140415 #1 task: ffffffff8056ce80 ti: ffffffff8055c000 task.ti: ffffffff8055c000 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff8043c4e8>] sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac+0x68/0x80 [<ffffffff8042b300>] sctp_process_init+0x5e0/0x8a4 [<ffffffff8042188c>] sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init+0x234/0x34c [<ffffffff804228c8>] sctp_do_sm+0xb4/0x1e8 [<ffffffff80425a08>] sctp_endpoint_bh_rcv+0x1c4/0x214 [<ffffffff8043af68>] sctp_rcv+0x588/0x630 [<ffffffff8043e8e8>] sctp6_rcv+0x10/0x24 [<ffffffff803acb50>] ip6_input+0x2c0/0x440 [<ffffffff8030fc00>] __netif_receive_skb_core+0x4a8/0x564 [<ffffffff80310650>] process_backlog+0xb4/0x18c [<ffffffff80313cbc>] net_rx_action+0x12c/0x210 [<ffffffff80034254>] __do_softirq+0x17c/0x2ac [<ffffffff800345e0>] irq_exit+0x54/0xb0 [<ffffffff800075a4>] ret_from_irq+0x0/0x4 [<ffffffff800090ec>] rm7k_wait_irqoff+0x24/0x48 [<ffffffff8005e388>] cpu_startup_entry+0xc0/0x148 [<ffffffff805a88b0>] start_kernel+0x37c/0x398 Code: dd0900b8 000330f8 0126302d <dcc60000> 50c0fff1 0047182a a48306a0 03e00008 00000000 ---[ end trace b530b0551467f2fd ]--- Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt What happens while auth_enable=0 in that case is, that ep->auth_hmacs is initialized to NULL in sctp_auth_init_hmacs() when endpoint is being created. After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1, the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init() via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk, the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through, but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus, dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint initialization phase. The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate from the very first days. Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless 2014-04-17 Please pull this batch of fixes intended for the 3.15 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "We have a fix from Chun-Yeow to not look at management frame bitrates that are typically really low, two fixes from Felix for AP_VLAN interfaces, a fix from Ido to disable SMPS settings when a monitor interface is enabled, a radar detection fix from Michał and a fix from myself for a very old remain-on-channel bug." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have new device IDs and a new firmware API. These are the trivial ones. The less trivial ones are Johannes's fix that delays the enablement of an interrupt coalescing hardware until after association - this fixes a few connection problems seen in the field. Eyal has a bunch of rate control fixes. I decided to add these for 3.15 because they fix some disconnection and packet loss scenarios which were reported by the field. I also have a fix for a memory leak that happens only with a very new NIC." Along with those... Amitkumar Karwar fixes a couple of problems relating to driver/firmware interactions in mwifiex. Christian Engelmayer avoids a couple of potential memory leaks in the new rsi driver. Eliad Peller provides a wl18xx mailbox alignment fix for problems when using new firmware. Frederic Danis adds a couple of missing debugging strings to the cw1200 driver. Geert Uytterhoeven adds a variable initialization inside of the rsi driver. Luciano Coelho patches the wlcore code to ignore dummy packet events in PLT mode in order to work around a firmware bug. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The new function vlan_dev_get_lockdep_subkey() will return the subkey and make the vlan dev could get a suitable class key. v2->v3: According David's suggestion, I use the subclass to distinguish the lock key for vlan dev and its real dev, but it make no sense, because the difference for subclass in the lock_class_key doesn't mean that the difference class for lock_key, so I use lock_depth to distinguish the different depth for every vlan dev, the same depth of the vlan dev could have the same lock_class_key, I import the MAX_LOCK_DEPTH from the include/linux/sched.h, I think it is enough here, the lockdep should never exceed that value. v3->v4: Add a huge array of locking keys will waste static kernel memory and is not a appropriate method, we could use _nested() variants to fix the problem, calculate the depth for every vlan dev, and use the depth as the subclass for addr_lock_key.
