* net: fix IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR definitionDan Carpenter2022-07-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 3b89b511ea0c705cc418440e2abf9d692a556d84 upstream. The "1<<31" shift has a sign extension bug so IFF_TX_SKB_NO_LINEAR is 0xffffffff80000000 instead of 0x0000000080000000.

* net: Use this_cpu_inc() to increment net->core_statsSebastian Andrzej Siewior2022-04-261-12/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The macro dev_core_stats_##FIELD##_inc() disables preemption and invokes netdev_core_stats_alloc() to return a per-CPU pointer. netdev_core_stats_alloc() will allocate memory on its first invocation which breaks on PREEMPT_RT because it requires non-atomic context for memory allocation. This can be avoided by enabling preemption in netdev_core_stats_alloc() assuming the caller always disables preemption. It might be better to replace local_inc() with this_cpu_inc() now that dev_core_stats_##FIELD##_inc() gained a preempt-disable section and does not rely on already disabled preemption. This results in less instructions on x86-64: local_inc: | incl %gs:__preempt_count(%rip) # __preempt_count | movq 488(%rdi), %rax # _1->core_stats, _22 | testq %rax, %rax # _22 | je .L585 #, | add %gs:this_cpu_off(%rip), %rax # this_cpu_off, tcp_ptr__ | .L586: | testq %rax, %rax # _27 | je .L587 #, | incq (%rax) # _6->a.counter | .L587: | decl %gs:__preempt_count(%rip) # __preempt_count this_cpu_inc(), this patch: | movq 488(%rdi), %rax # _1->core_stats, _5 | testq %rax, %rax # _5 | je .L591 #, | .L585: | incq %gs:(%rax) # _18->rx_dropped Use unsigned long as type for the counter.

* net: set default rss queues num to physical cores / 2Íñigo Huguet2022-03-181-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Network drivers can call to netif_get_num_default_rss_queues to get the default number of receive queues to use. Right now, this default number is min(8, num_online_cpus()). Instead, as suggested by Jakub, use the number of physical cores divided by 2 as a way to avoid wasting CPU resources and to avoid using both CPU threads, but still allowing to scale for high-end processors with many cores. As an exception, select 2 queues for processors with 2 cores, because otherwise it won't take any advantage of RSS despite being SMP capable. Tested: Processor Intel Xeon E5-2620 (2 sockets, 6 cores/socket, 2 threads/core). NIC Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM57810 (10GBps). Ran some tests with `perf stat iperf3 -R`, with parallelisms of 1, 8 and 24, getting the following results: - Number of queues: 6 (instead of 8) - Network throughput: not affected - CPU usage: utilized 0.05-0.12 CPUs more than before (having 24 CPUs this is only 0.2-0.5% higher) - Reduced the number of context switches by 7-50%, being more noticeable when using a higher number of parallel threads.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The esp tunnel GSO handlers use skb_mac_gso_segment to push the inner packet to the segmentation handlers. However, skb_mac_gso_segment takes the Ethernet Protocol ID from 'skb->protocol' which is wrong for inter address family tunnels. We fix this by introducing a new skb_eth_gso_segment function. This function can be used if it is necessary to pass the Ethernet Protocol ID directly to the segmentation handler. First users of this function will be the esp4 and esp6 tunnel segmentation handlers.

* | net: dev: Add hardware stats supportPetr Machata2022-03-031-0/+42

Add the necessary infrastructure to allow exposing these statistics to the offloaded netdevice in question. The API was shaped by the following considerations: - Collection of HW statistics is not free: there may be a finite number of counters, and the act of counting may have a performance impact. It is therefore necessary to allow toggling whether HW counting should be done for any particular SW netdevice. - As the drivers are loaded and removed, a particular device may get offloaded and unoffloaded again. At the same time, the statistics values need to stay monotonic (modulo the eventual 64-bit wraparound), increasing only to reflect traffic measured in the device. To that end, the netdevice keeps around a lazily-allocated copy of struct rtnl_link_stats64. Device drivers then contribute to the values kept therein at various points. Even as the driver goes away, the struct stays around to maintain the statistics values. - Different HW devices may be able to count different things. The motivation behind this patch in particular is exposure of HW counters on Nvidia Spectrum switches, where the only practical approach to counting traffic on offloaded soft netdevices currently is to use router interface counters, and count L3 traffic. Correspondingly that is the statistics suite added in this patch. Other devices may be able to measure different kinds of traffic, and for that reason, the APIs are built to allow uniform access to different statistics suites. - Because soft netdevices and offloading drivers are only loosely bound, a netdevice uses a notifier chain to communicate with the drivers. Several new notifiers, NETDEV_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_*, have been added to carry messages to the offloading drivers. - Devices can have various conditions for when a particular counter is available. As the device is configured and reconfigured, the device offload may become or cease being suitable for counter binding. A netdevice can use a notifier type NETDEV_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_REPORT_USED to ping offloading drivers and determine whether anyone currently implements a given statistics suite. This information can then be propagated to user space. When the driver decides to unoffload a netdevice, it can use a newly-added function, netdev_offload_xstats_report_delta(), to record outstanding collected statistics, before destroying the HW counter. This patch adds a helper, call_netdevice_notifiers_info_robust(), for dispatching a notifier with the possibility of unwind when one of the consumers bails. Given the wish to eventually get rid of the global notifier block altogether, this helper only invokes the per-netns notifier block.

* | drop_monitor: remove quadratic behaviorEric Dumazet2022-02-231-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | drop_monitor is using an unique list on which all netdevices in the host have an element, regardless of their netns. This scales poorly, not only at device unregister time (what I caught during my netns dismantle stress tests), but also at packet processing time whenever trace_napi_poll_hit() is called. If the intent was to avoid adding one pointer in 'struct net_device' then surely we prefer O(1) behavior.

* | net: dev: Makes sure netif_rx() can be invoked in any context.Sebastian Andrzej Siewior2022-02-141-2/+12

Eric agreed and pointed out that modern devices should use netif_receive_skb() to avoid the overhead. In the meantime someone added another variant, netif_rx_any_context(), which behaves as suggested. netif_rx() must be invoked with disabled bottom halves to ensure that pending softirqs, which were raised within the function, are handled. netif_rx_ni() can be invoked only from process context (bottom halves must be enabled) because the function handles pending softirqs without checking if bottom halves were disabled or not. netif_rx_any_context() invokes on the former functions by checking in_interrupts(). netif_rx() could be taught to handle both cases (disabled and enabled bottom halves) by simply disabling bottom halves while invoking netif_rx_internal(). The local_bh_enable() invocation will then invoke pending softirqs only if the BH-disable counter drops to zero. Eric is concerned about the overhead of BH-disable+enable especially in regard to the loopback driver. As critical as this driver is, it will receive a shortcut to avoid the additional overhead which is not needed. Add a local_bh_disable() section in netif_rx() to ensure softirqs are handled if needed. Provide __netif_rx() which does not disable BH and has a lockdep assert to ensure that interrupts are disabled. Use this shortcut in the loopback driver and in drivers/net/*.c. Make netif_rx_ni() and netif_rx_any_context() invoke netif_rx() so they can be removed once they are no more users left.

* | net: refine dev_put()/dev_hold() debuggingEric Dumazet2022-02-051-23/+46
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are still chasing some syzbot reports where we think a rogue dev_put() is called with no corresponding prior dev_hold(). Unfortunately it eats a reference on dev->dev_refcnt taken by innocent dev_hold_track(), meaning that the refcount saturation splat comes too late to be useful. Make sure that 'not tracked' dev_put() and dev_hold() better use CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER=y debug infrastructure: Prior patch in the series allowed ref_tracker_alloc() and ref_tracker_free() to be called with a NULL @trackerp parameter, and to use a separate refcount only to detect too many put() even in the following case: dev_hold_track(dev, tracker_1, GFP_ATOMIC); dev_hold(dev); dev_put(dev); dev_put(dev); // Should complain loudly here. dev_put_track(dev, tracker_1); // instead of here Add clarification about netdev_tracker_alloc() role. v2: I replaced the dev_put() in linkwatch_do_dev() with __dev_put() because callers called netdev_tracker_free().

* net: fix information leakage in /proc/net/ptypeCongyu Liu2022-01-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In one net namespace, after creating a packet socket without binding it to a device, users in other net namespaces can observe the new `packet_type` added by this packet socket by reading `/proc/net/ptype` file. This is minor information leakage as packet socket is namespace aware. Add a net pointer in `packet_type` to keep the net namespace of of corresponding packet socket. In `ptype_seq_show`, this net pointer must be checked when it is not NULL. Fixes: 2feb27dbe00c ("[NETNS]: Minor information leak via /proc/net/ptype file.")

* gro: add ability to control gro max packet sizeCoco Li2022-01-061-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eric Dumazet suggested to allow users to modify max GRO packet size. We have seen GRO being disabled by users of appliances (such as wifi access points) because of claimed bufferbloat issues, or some work arounds in sch_cake, to split GRO/GSO packets. Instead of disabling GRO completely, one can chose to limit the maximum packet size of GRO packets, depending on their latency constraints. This patch adds a per device gro_max_size attribute that can be changed with ip link command. ip link set dev eth0 gro_max_size 16000 Suggested-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Coco Li <lixiaoyan@google.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Over the years we had numerous bugs caused by imbalanced dev_hold() and dev_put() calls. The general idea is to be able to precisely pair each decrement with a corresponding prior increment. Both share a cookie, basically a pointer to private data storing stack traces. This patch adds dev_hold_track() and dev_put_track(). To use these helpers, each data structure owning a refcount should also use a "netdevice_tracker" to pair the hold and put. netdevice_tracker dev_tracker; ... dev_hold_track(dev, &dev_tracker, GFP_ATOMIC); ... dev_put_track(dev, &dev_tracker); Whenever a leak happens, we will get precise stack traces of the point dev_hold_track() happened, at device dismantle phase. We will also get a stack trace if too many dev_put_track() for the same netdevice_tracker are attempted. This is guarded by CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER option.

A patch for nftables to hook up egress rules from user space has been submitted separately, so users may immediately take advantage of the feature. Alternatively or in addition to netfilter, packets can be classified with traffic control (tc). On ingress, packets are classified first by tc, then by netfilter. On egress, the order is reversed for symmetry. Conceptually, tc and netfilter can be thought of as layers, with netfilter layered above tc. Traffic control is capable of redirecting packets to another interface (man 8 tc-mirred). E.g., an ingress packet may be redirected from the host namespace to a container via a veth connection: tc ingress (host) -> tc egress (veth host) -> tc ingress (veth container) In this case, netfilter egress classifying is not performed when leaving the host namespace! That's because the packet is still on the tc layer. If tc redirects the packet to a physical interface in the host namespace such that it leaves the system, the packet is never subjected to netfilter egress classifying. That is only logical since it hasn't passed through netfilter ingress classifying either. Packets can alternatively be redirected at the netfilter layer using nft fwd. Such a packet *is* subjected to netfilter egress classifying since it has reached the netfilter layer. Internally, the skb->nf_skip_egress flag controls whether netfilter is invoked on egress by __dev_queue_xmit(). Because __dev_queue_xmit() may be called recursively by tunnel drivers such as vxlan, the flag is reverted to false after sch_handle_egress(). This ensures that netfilter is applied both on the overlay and underlying network. Interaction between tc and netfilter is possible by setting and querying skb->mark. If netfilter egress classifying is not enabled on any interface, it is patched out of the data path by way of a static_key and doesn't make a performance difference that is discernible from noise: Before: 1537 1538 1538 1537 1538 1537 Mb/sec After: 1536 1534 1539 1539 1539 1540 Mb/sec Before + tc accept: 1418 1418 1418 1419 1419 1418 Mb/sec After + tc accept: 1419 1424 1418 1419 1422 1420 Mb/sec Before + tc drop: 1620 1619 1619 1619 1620 1620 Mb/sec After + tc drop: 1616 1624 1625 1624 1622 1619 Mb/sec When netfilter egress classifying is enabled on at least one interface, a minimal performance penalty is incurred for every egress packet, even if the interface it's transmitted over doesn't have any netfilter egress rules configured. That is caused by checking dev->nf_hooks_egress against NULL. Measurements were performed on a Core i7-3615QM.
