Such an accounting would cost us two more dereferences to get the

and _add calls work differently depending on CONFIG_NET_NS - without

And redirect sock_prot_inuse_add and _get to use one.
As far as the dereferences are concerned. Before the patch we made
1 dereference to proto->inuse.add call, the call itself and then
called the __get_cpu_var() on a static variable. After the patch we
make a direct call, then one dereference to proto->inuse_idx and
then the same __get_cpu_var() on a still static variable. So this
patch doesn't seem to produce performance penalty on SMP.

Proxy neighbors do not have any reference counting, so any caller
of pneigh_lookup (unless it's a netlink triggered add/del routine)
should _not_ perform any actions on the found proxy entry.
There's one exception from this rule - the ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns()
uses found entry to check the flags for NTF_ROUTER.
This creates a race between the ndisc and pneigh_delete - after
the pneigh is returned to the caller, the nd_tbl.lock is dropped
and the deleting procedure may proceed.
One of the fixes would be to add a reference counting, but this
problem exists for ndisc only. Besides such a patch would be too
big for -rc4.
So I propose to introduce a __pneigh_lookup() which is supposed
to be called with the lock held and use it in ndisc code to check
the flags on alive pneigh entry.
Changes from v2:
As David noticed, Exported the __pneigh_lookup() to ipv6 module.
The checkpatch generates a warning on it, since the EXPORT_SYMBOL
does not follow the symbol itself, but in this file all the
exports come at the end, so I decided no to break this harmony.
Changes from v1:
Fixed comments from YOSHIFUJI - indentation of prototype in header
and the pndisc_check_router() name - and a compilation fix, pointed
by Daniel - the is_routed was (falsely) considered as uninitialized

Update: My mailer ate one of Jarek's feedback mails... Fixed the
parameter in netif_set_gso_max_size() to be u32, not u16. Fixed the
whitespace issue due to a patch import botch. Changed the types from
u32 to unsigned int to be more consistent with other variables in the
area. Also brought the patch up to the latest net-2.6.26 tree.
Update: Made gso_max_size container 32 bits, not 16. Moved the
location of gso_max_size within netdev to be less hotpath. Made more
consistent names between the sock and netdev layers, and added a
define for the max GSO size.
Update: Respun for net-2.6.26 tree.
Update: changed max_gso_frame_size and sk_gso_max_size from signed to
unsigned - thanks Stephen!
This patch adds the ability for device drivers to control the size of
the TSO frames being sent to them, per TCP connection. By setting the
netdevice's gso_max_size value, the socket layer will set the GSO
frame size based on that value. This will propogate into the TCP
layer, and send TSO's of that size to the hardware.
This can be desirable to help tune the bursty nature of TSO on a
per-adapter basis, where one may have 1 GbE and 10 GbE devices
coexisting in a system, one running multiqueue and the other not, etc.
This can also be desirable for devices that cannot support full 64 KB
TSO's, but still want to benefit from some level of segmentation
offloading.

The address length for links to be created is not checked for now as the

Frank Blaschka provided the bug report and the initial suggested fix
for this bug. He also validated this version of this fix.
The problem is that the access to neigh->arp_queue is inconsistent, we
grab references when dropping the lock lock to call
neigh->ops->solicit() but this does not prevent other threads of
control from trying to send out that packet at the same time causing
corruptions because both code paths believe they have exclusive access
to the skb.
The best option seems to be to hold the write lock on neigh->lock
during the ->solicit() call. I looked at all of the ndisc_ops
implementations and this seems workable. The only case that needs
special care is the IPV4 ARP implementation of arp_solicit(). It
wants to take neigh->lock as a reader to protect the header entry in
neigh->ha during the emission of the soliciation. We can simply
remove the read lock calls to take care of that since holding the lock
as a writer at the caller providers a superset of the protection
afforded by the existing read locking.
The rest of the ->solicit() implementations don't care whether the
neigh is locked or not.

During network namespace stop process kernel side netlink sockets
belonging to a namespace should be closed. They should not prevent
namespace to stop, so they do not increment namespace usage
counter. Though this counter will be put during last sock_put.
The raplacement of the correct netns for init_ns solves the problem
only partial as socket to be stoped until proper stop is a valid
netlink kernel socket and can be looked up by the user processes. This
is not a problem until it resides in initial namespace (no processes
inside this net), but this is not true for init_net.
So, hold the referrence for a socket, remove it from lookup tables and
only after that change namespace and perform a last put.

This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network
protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions
for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting
functions are removed since other functions do same thing.
Renaming:
sk_stream_free_skb() -> sk_wmem_free_skb()
__sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> __sk_mem_reclaim()
sk_stream_mem_reclaim() -> sk_mem_reclaim()
sk_stream_mem_schedule -> __sk_mem_schedule()
sk_stream_pages() -> sk_mem_pages()
sk_stream_rmem_schedule() -> sk_rmem_schedule()
sk_stream_wmem_schedule() -> sk_wmem_schedule()
sk_charge_skb() -> sk_mem_charge()
Removeing
sk_stream_rfree(): consolidates into sock_rfree()
sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r()
sk_stream_mem_schedule()
The following functions are added.
sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting
sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge()
In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is
removed from sk_mem_charge().
Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds
memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present
memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call.
Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface
in TCP and SCTP.

I'm actually surprised at how much was involved. At first glance it
appears that the neighbour table data structures are already split by
network device so all that should be needed is to modify the user
interface commands to filter the set of neighbours by the network
namespace of their devices.
However a couple things turned up while I was reading through the
code. The proxy neighbour table allows entries with no network
device, and the neighbour parms are per network device (except for the
defaults) so they now need a per network namespace default.
So I updated the two structures (which surprised me) with their very
own network namespace parameter. Updated the relevant lookup and
destroy routines with a network namespace parameter and modified the
code that interacts with users to filter out neighbour table entries
for devices of other namespaces.
I'm a little concerned that we can modify and display the global table
configuration and from all network namespaces. But this appears good
enough for now.
I keep thinking modifying the neighbour table to have per network
namespace instances of each table type would should be cleaner. The
hash table is already dynamically sized so there are it is not a
limiter. The default parameter would be straight forward to take care
of. However when I look at the how the network table is built and
used I still find some assumptions that there is only a single
neighbour table for each type of table in the kernel. The netlink
operations, neigh_seq_start, the non-core network users that call
neigh_lookup. So while it might be doable it would require more
refactoring than my current approach of just doing a little extra
filtering in the code.

Making them per-namespace is required for the following
two reasons:
First, some ctl values have a per-namespace meaning.
Second, making them writable from the sub-namespace
is an isolation hole.

declared tables, for sub-namespace they are duplicated

The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused each
peek of the same packet to be counted separately. This may be
undesirable.
This patch fixes this by adding a bit to sk_buff to record whether
this packet has already been seen through skb_recv_datagram. We
then only increment the counter when the packet is seen for the
first time.
The only dodgy part is the fact that skb_recv_datagram doesn't have
a good way of returning this new bit of information. So I've added
a new function __skb_recv_datagram that does return this and made
skb_recv_datagram a wrapper around it.
The plan is to eventually replace all uses of skb_recv_datagram with
this new function at which time it can be renamed its proper name.

The appropriate path is prepared right inside this function. It
is prepared similar to how the ctl tables were.
Since the path is modified, it is put on the stack, to avoid
possible races with multiple calls to neigh_sysctl_register() : it
is called by protocols and I didn't find any protection in this
case. Did I overlooked the rtnl lock?.
The stack growth of the neigh_sysctl_register() is 40 bytes. I
believe this is OK, since this is not that much and this function
is not called with the deep stack (device/protocols register).
The device's name is stored on the template to free it later.
This will help with the net namespaces, as each namespace should
have its own set of these ctls.
Besides, this saves ~350 bytes from the neigh template :)

However, conceptually this is identical to the blackhole functions

either all return errors or all return zero. For now I've stuck with

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.
The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.
In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.

When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.
The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.
With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

Commit 9cd4002942 (Fix race between

The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock
and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the
dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window
on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer.
To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the
tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can
live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a
parm with bad dev pointer.
I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think
that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are
really freed. Am I right with that?

Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely
on the 'iif' field to determine the receiving network interface of
inbound packets. Unfortunately, at present this field is not
preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage
values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack. This
patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in
__skb_clone() and removing the 'iif' field assignment from
skb_act_clone() since it is no longer needed.
Also, while we are here, put the assignments in the same order as the

When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user

The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in
the reqsk_queue_destroy().
However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally.
Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as
it looks too big to be inline.
As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only,
so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL.
reqsk_queue_yank_listen_sk is also now only used in

makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the

The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is

caller. In case the caller is in module init function and
handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but
will be left in the list. Oops :(
I think that the notifier block should be removed from the

"struct proto" currently uses an array stats[NR_CPUS] to track change on
'inuse' sockets per protocol.
If NR_CPUS is big, this means we use a big memory area for this.
Moreover, all this memory area is located on a single node on NUMA
machines, increasing memory pressure on the boot node.
In this patch, I tried to :
- Keep a fast !CONFIG_SMP implementation
- Keep a fast CONFIG_SMP implementation for often used protocols
(tcp,udp,raw,...)
- Introduce a NUMA efficient implementation
Some helper macros are defined in include/net/sock.h
These macros take into account CONFIG_SMP
If a "struct proto" is declared without using DEFINE_PROTO_INUSE /
REF_PROTO_INUSE
macros, it will automatically use a default implementation, using a
dynamically allocated percpu zone.
This default implementation will be NUMA efficient, but might use 32/64
bytes per possible cpu
because of current alloc_percpu() implementation.
However it still should be better than previous implementation based on
stats[NR_CPUS] field.
When a "struct proto" is changed to use the new macros, we use a single
static "int" percpu variable,
lowering the memory and cpu costs, still preserving NUMA efficiency.

This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by
commit 68e3f5dd4d
[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors
The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.
Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.
The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

Point 1:
The unregistering of a network device schedule a netdev_run_todo.
This function calls dev->destructor when it is set and the
destructor calls free_netdev.
Point 2:
In the case of an initialization of a network device the usual code
is:
* alloc_netdev
* register_netdev
-> if this one fails, call free_netdev and exit with error.
Point 3:
In the register_netdevice function at the later state, when the device
is at the registered state, a call to the netdevice_notifiers is made.
If one of the notification falls into an error, a rollback to the
registered state is done using unregister_netdevice.
Conclusion:
When a network device fails to register during initialization because
one network subsystem returned an error during a notification call
chain, the network device is freed twice because of fact 1 and fact 2.
The second free_netdev will be done with an invalid pointer.
Proposed solution:
The following patch move all the code of unregister_netdevice *except*
the call to net_set_todo, to a new function "rollback_registered".
The following functions are changed in this way:
* register_netdevice: calls rollback_registered when a notification fails
* unregister_netdevice: calls rollback_register + net_set_todo, the call
order to net_set_todo is changed because it is the
latest now. Since it justs add an element to a list
that should not break anything.

So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding

The task_struct->pid member is going to be deprecated, so start
using the helpers (task_pid_nr/task_pid_vnr/task_pid_nr_ns) in
the kernel.
The first thing to start with is the pid, printed to dmesg - in
this case we may safely use task_pid_nr(). Besides, printks produce
more (much more) than a half of all the explicit pid usage.

This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.
The idea is:
- all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
- when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
- when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
task's namespace the global one is to be used;
- when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

When someone wants to deal with some other taks's namespaces it has to lock
the task and then to get the desired namespace if the one exists. This is
slow on read-only paths and may be impossible in some cases.
E.g. Oleg recently noticed a race between unshare() and the (sent for
review in cgroups) pid namespaces - when the task notifies the parent it
has to know the parent's namespace, but taking the task_lock() is
impossible there - the code is under write locked tasklist lock.
On the other hand switching the namespace on task (daemonize) and releasing
the namespace (after the last task exit) is rather rare operation and we
can sacrifice its speed to solve the issues above.
The access to other task namespaces is proposed to be performed
like this:
rcu_read_lock();
nsproxy = task_nsproxy(tsk);
if (nsproxy != NULL) {
/ *
* work with the namespaces here
* e.g. get the reference on one of them
* /
} / *
* NULL task_nsproxy() means that this task is
* almost dead (zombie)
* /
rcu_read_unlock();
This patch has passed the review by Eric and Oleg :) and,
of course, tested.

This patch adds a new field to xfrm states called inner_mode. The existing
mode object is renamed to outer_mode.
This is the first part of an attempt to fix inter-family transforms. As it
is we always use the outer family when determining which mode to use. As a
result we may end up shoving IPv4 packets into netfilter6 and vice versa.
What we really want is to use the inner family for the first part of outbound
processing and the outer family for the second part. For inbound processing
we'd use the opposite pairing.
I've also added a check to prevent silly combinations such as transport mode
with inter-family transforms.

TCP packets all have writable heads, that is, even though it's cloned, it is
writable up to the end of the TCP header. This patch makes skb_checksum_help
aware of this fact by using skb_clone_writable and avoiding a copy for TCP.
I've also modified the BUG_ON tests to be unsigned. The only case where this
makes a difference is if csum_start points to a location before skb->data.
Since skb->data should always include the header where the checksum field

This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.
The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.
Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.
This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.
Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.
EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

There is no need to process outstanding netlink user->kernel packets
during rtnl_unlock now. There is no rtnl_trylock in the rtnetlink_rcv
anymore.
Normal code path is the following:
netlink_sendmsg
netlink_unicast
netlink_sendskb
skb_queue_tail
netlink_data_ready
rtnetlink_rcv
mutex_lock(&rtnl_mutex);
netlink_run_queue(sk, qlen, &rtnetlink_rcv_msg);
mutex_unlock(&rtnl_mutex);
So, it is possible, that packets can be present in the rtnl->sk_receive_queue
during rtnl_unlock, but there is no need to process them at that moment as
rtnetlink_rcv for that packet is pending.

With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section,
thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before.
Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace
creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns
stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot.
Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls
are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be
merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to
use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes"
for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS
is not set to save more space in memory.
The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section,
as noticed by David, since the init section will have
references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost
checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace
never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I
introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already
done with the __init_refok.

Denis V. Lunev <den@sw.ru> noticed that the locking rules
for the network namespace list are over complicated and broken.
In particular the current register_netdev_notifier currently
does not take any lock making the for_each_net iteration racy
with network namespace creation and destruction. Oops.
The fact that we need to use for_each_net in rtnl_unlock() when
the rtnetlink support becomes per network namespace makes designing
the proper locking tricky. In addition we need to be able to call
rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() when we have the net_mutex held.
After thinking about it and looking at the alternatives carefully
it looks like the simplest and most maintainable solution is
to remove net_list_mutex altogether, and to use the rtnl_mutex instead.

I proposed introducing a list_for_each_entry_continue_reverse macro
to be used in setup_net() when unrolling the failed ->init callback.
Here is the macro and some more cleanup in the setup_net() itself
to remove one variable from the stack :) The same thing is for the
cleanup_net() - the existing list_for_each_entry_reverse() is used.
Minor, but the code looks nicer.

For the operations
get-tx-csum
get-sg
get-tso
get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.
This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.
The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case. Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a

The problem: proc_net files remember which network namespace the are
against but do not remember hold a reference count (as that would pin
the network namespace). So we currently have a small window where
the reference count on a network namespace may be incremented when opening
a /proc file when it has already gone to zero.
To fix this introduce maybe_get_net and get_proc_net.
maybe_get_net increments the network namespace reference count only if it is
greater then zero, ensuring we don't increment a reference count after it
has gone to zero.
get_proc_net handles all of the magic to go from a proc inode to the network
namespace instance and call maybe_get_net on it.
PROC_NET the old accessor is removed so that we don't get confused and use
the wrong helper function.
Then I fix up the callers to use get_proc_net and handle the case case
where get_proc_net returns NULL. In that case I return -ENXIO because
effectively the network namespace has already gone away so the files
we are trying to access don't exist anymore.

When the periodic IP route cache flush is done (every 600 seconds on
default configuration), some hosts suffer a lot and eventually trigger
the "soft lockup" message.
dst_run_gc() is doing a scan of a possibly huge list of dst_entries,
eventually freeing some (less than 1%) of them, while holding the
dst_lock spinlock for the whole scan.
Then it rearms a timer to redo the full thing 1/10 s later...
The slowdown can last one minute or so, depending on how active are
the tcp sessions.
This second version of the patch converts the processing from a softirq
based one to a workqueue.
Even if the list of entries in garbage_list is huge, host is still
responsive to softirqs and can make progress.
Instead of resetting gc timer to 0.1 second if one entry was freed in a
gc run, we do this if more than 10% of entries were freed.

This patch introduces NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL a flag to indicate
a network device is local to a single network namespace and
should never be moved. Useful for pseudo devices that we
need an instance in each network namespace (like the loopback
device) and for any device we find that cannot handle multiple
network namespaces so we may trap them in the initial network
namespace.
This patch introduces the function dev_change_net_namespace
a function used to move a network device from one network
namespace to another. To the network device nothing
special appears to happen, to the components of the network
stack it appears as if the network device was unregistered
in the network namespace it is in, and a new device
was registered in the network namespace the device
was moved to.
This patch sets up a namespace device destructor that
upon the exit of a network namespace moves all of the
movable network devices to the initial network namespace
so they are not lost.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network

Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol

can get confused and do the wrong thing.

Except for carefully selected pseudo devices all network

Ultimately it will be register_netdev that examines what
dev->nd_net is set to and places a device in a network namespace.
This patch modifies alloc_netdev to initialize the network
namespace a device is in with the initial network namespace.
This gets it right for the vast majority of devices so their
drivers need not be modified and for those few pseudo devices
that need something different they can change this parameter
before calling register_netdevice.
The network namespace parameter on a network device is not
reference counted as the devices are inside of a network namespace

This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting. By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched. In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.
Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.
Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files

- Functions to grab a reference to the network namespace.
I provide both get/put functions that keep a network namespace

This patch introduces support for dynamic reconfiguration (adding, removing
and/or modifying parameters of netconsole targets at runtime) using a
userspace interface exported via configfs. Documentation is also updated
accordingly.
Issues and brief design overview:
(1) Kernel-initiated creation / destruction of kernel objects is not
possible with configfs -- the lifetimes of the "config items" is managed
exclusively from userspace. But netconsole must support boot/module
params too, and these are parsed in kernel and hence netpolls must be
setup from the kernel. Joel Becker suggested to separately manage the
lifetimes of the two kinds of netconsole_target objects -- those created
via configfs mkdir(2) from userspace and those specified from the
boot/module option string. This adds complexity and some redundancy here
and also means that boot/module param-created targets are not exposed
through the configfs namespace (and hence cannot be updated / destroyed
dynamically). However, this saves us from locking / refcounting
complexities that would need to be introduced in configfs to support
kernel-initiated item creation / destroy there.
(2) In configfs, item creation takes place in the call chain of the
mkdir(2) syscall in the driver subsystem. If we used an ioctl(2) to
create / destroy objects from userspace, the special userspace program is
able to fill out the structure to be passed into the ioctl and hence
specify attributes such as local interface that are required at the time
we set up the netpoll. For configfs, this information is not available at
the time of mkdir(2). So, we keep all newly-created targets (via
configfs) disabled by default. The user is expected to set various
attributes appropriately (including the local network interface if
required) and then write(2) "1" to the "enabled" attribute. Thus,
netpoll_setup() is then called on the set parameters in the context of
_this_ write(2) on the "enabled" attribute itself. This design enables
the user to reconfigure existing netconsole targets at runtime to be
attached to newly-come-up interfaces that may not have existed when
netconsole was loaded or when the targets were actually created. All this
effectively enables us to get rid of custom ioctls.
(3) Ultra-paranoid configfs attribute show() and store() operations, with
sanity and input range checking, using only safe string primitives, and
compliant with the recommendations in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt.
(4) A new function netpoll_print_options() is created in the netpoll API,
that just prints out the configured parameters for a netpoll structure.
netpoll_parse_options() is modified to use that and it is also exported to
be used from netconsole.

Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.
In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.
The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:
int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
to
int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.
The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.
Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

sizeof(int).
This check also means that passing in a two byte string doesn't
work so well. It's almost as if this code was testing with "eth?"
patterned strings and nothing else :-)
Fix this by breaking the logic of this facility out into a
seperate function which validates optlen more appropriately.
The optlen==0 and small string cases now work properly.
2) We should reset the cached route of the socket after we have made
the device binding changes, not before.

When msg_iovlen is zero we shouldn't try to dereference
msg_iov. Right now the only thing that tries to do so
is skb_copy_and_csum_datagram_iovec. Since the total
length should also be zero if msg_iovlen is zero, it's
sufficient to check the total length there and simply
return if it's zero.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8797 shows that the
bonding driver may produce bogus combinations of the checksum
flags and SG/TSO.
For example, if you bond devices with NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM you'll end up with a bonding device that
has neither flag set. If both have TSO then this produces
an illegal combination.
The bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to
deal with this.
In fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch
moves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both
bonding and bridging.
In the process I've made small adjustments such as only
setting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device
supports it.

This patch adds code to allow errors to be passed up from event
handlers of NETDEV_REGISTER and NETDEV_CHANGENAME. It also adds
the notifier_from_errno/notifier_to_errnor helpers to pass the
errno value up to the notifier caller.
If an error is detected when a device is registered, it causes
that operation to fail. A NETDEV_UNREGISTER will be sent to
all event handlers.
Similarly if NETDEV_CHANGENAME fails the original name is restored
and a new NETDEV_CHANGENAME event is sent.
As such all event handlers must be idempotent with respect to
these events.
When an event handler is registered NETDEV_REGISTER events are
sent for all devices currently registered. Should any of them
fail, we will send NETDEV_GOING_DOWN/NETDEV_DOWN/NETDEV_UNREGISTER
events to that handler for the devices which have already been
registered with it. The handler registration itself will fail.

When we added name-based hashing the dev_base_lock was designated as the

The race can affect calles of __dev_get_by_name that do so without taking

Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel
threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This
approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either
set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't
care for the freezing of tasks at all.
It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to
be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any
freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is
done in this patch.
The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to
have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable()
function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to
unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel
threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional)
change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to
describe the freezing of tasks more accurately.

Part two in the O_CLOEXEC saga: adding support for file descriptors received
through Unix domain sockets.
The patch is once again pretty minimal, it introduces a new flag for recvmsg
and passes it just like the existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag. I think this bit
is not used otherwise but the networking people will know better.
This new flag is not recognized by recvfrom and recv. These functions cannot
be used for that purpose and the asymmetry this introduces is not worse than
the already existing MSG_CMSG_COMPAT situations.
The patch must be applied on the patch which introduced O_CLOEXEC. It has to
remove static from the new get_unused_fd_flags function but since scm.c cannot
live in a module the function still hasn't to be exported.
Here's a test program to make sure the code works. It's so much longer than

- if removed delete from lower device

Currently the set_multicast_list (and set_rx_mode) callbacks are
responsible for configuring the device according to the IFF_PROMISC,
IFF_MULTICAST and IFF_ALLMULTI flags and the mc_list (and uc_list in
case of set_rx_mode).
These callbacks can be invoked from BH context without the rtnl_mutex
by dev_mc_add/dev_mc_delete, which makes reading the device flags and
promiscous/allmulti count racy. For real hardware drivers that just
commit all changes to the hardware this is not a real problem since
the stack guarantees to call them for every change, so at least the
final call will not race and commit the correct configuration to the
hardware.
For software devices that want to synchronize promiscous and multicast
state to an underlying device however this can cause corruption of the
underlying device's flags or promisc/allmulti counts.
When the software device is concurrently put in promiscous or allmulti
mode while set_multicast_list is invoked from bottem half context, the
device might synchronize the change to the underlying device without
holding the rtnl_mutex, which races with concurrent changes to the
underlying device.
Add a dev->change_rx_flags hook that is invoked when any of the flags
that affect rx filtering change (under the rtnl_mutex), which allows
drivers to perform synchronization immediately and only synchronize
the address lists in set_multicast_list/set_rx_mode.

The current implementation assumes that a channel will only be used by one
client at a time. In order to enable channel sharing the dmaengine core is
changed to a model where clients subscribe to channel-available-events.
Instead of tracking how many channels a client wants and how many it has
received the core just broadcasts the available channels and lets the
clients optionally take a reference. The core learns about the clients'
needs at dma_event_callback time.
In support of multiple operation types, clients can specify a capability
mask to only be notified of channels that satisfy a certain set of
capabilities.
Changelog:
* removed DMA_TX_ARRAY_INIT, no longer needed
* dma_client_chan_free -> dma_chan_release: switch to global reference

net_device->npinfo (netpoll_info) is a shared and refcounted object and
cannot simply be set NULL the first time netpoll_cleanup() is called.
Otherwise, further netpoll_cleanup()'s see np->dev->npinfo == NULL and
become no-ops, thus leaking. And it's a bug too: the first call to
netpoll_cleanup() would thus (annoyingly) "disable" other (still alive)
netpolls too. Maybe nobody noticed this because netconsole (only user

The existing model for checksum offload does not correctly handle
devices that can offload IPV4 and IPV6 only. The NETIF_F_HW_CSUM flag
implies device can do any arbitrary protocol.
This patch:
* adds NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM for those devices
* fixes bnx2 and tg3 devices that need it
* add NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM to ipv6 output (incl GSO)
* fixes assumptions about NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM in nat
* adjusts bridge union of checksumming computation

Add a nested compat attribute type that can be used to convert
attributes that contain a structure to nested attributes in a
backwards compatible way.
The attribute looks like this:
struct {
[ compat contents ]
struct rtattr {
.rta_len = total size,
.rta_type = type,
} rta;
struct old_structure struct;
[ nested top-level attribute ]
struct rtattr {
.rta_len = nest size,
.rta_type = type,
} nest_attr;
[ optional 0 .. n nested attributes ]
struct rtattr {
.rta_len = private attribute len,
.rta_type = private attribute typ,
} nested_attr;
struct nested_data data;
};
Since both userspace and kernel deal correctly with attributes that are
larger than expected old versions will just parse the compat part and
ignore the rest.

Currently NAT (and others) that want to modify cloned skbs copy them,
even if in the vast majority of cases its not necessary because the
skb is a clone made by TCP and the portion NAT wants to modify is
actually writable because TCP release the header reference before
cloning.
The problem is that there is no clean way for NAT to find out how
long the writable header area is, so this patch introduces skb->hdr_len
to hold this length. When a headerless skb is cloned skb->hdr_len
is set to the current headroom, for regular clones it is copied from
the original. A new function skb_clone_writable(skb, len) returns
whether the skb is writable up to len bytes from skb->data. To avoid
enlarging the skb the mac_len field is reduced to 16 bit and the
new hdr_len field is put in the remaining 16 bit.
I've done a few rough benchmarks of NAT (not with this exact patch,
but a very similar one). As expected it saves huge amounts of system
time in case of sendfile, bringing it down to basically the same
amount as without NAT, with sendmsg it only helps on loopback,
probably because of the large MTU.
Transmit a 1GB file using sendfile/sendmsg over eth0/lo with and
without NAT:
- sendfile eth0, no NAT: sys 0m0.388s
- sendfile eth0, NAT: sys 0m1.835s
- sendfile eth0: NAT + path: sys 0m0.370s (~ -80%)
- sendfile lo, no NAT: sys 0m0.258s
- sendfile lo, NAT: sys 0m2.609s
- sendfile lo, NAT + patch: sys 0m0.260s (~ -90%)
- sendmsg eth0, no NAT: sys 0m2.508s
- sendmsg eth0, NAT: sys 0m2.539s
- sendmsg eth0, NAT + patch: sys 0m2.445s (no change)
- sendmsg lo, no NAT: sys 0m2.151s
- sendmsg lo, NAT: sys 0m3.557s
- sendmsg lo, NAT + patch: sys 0m2.159s (~ -40%)
I expect other users can see a similar performance improvement,
packet mangling iptables targets, ipip and ip_gre come to mind ..

#1
Until kernel ver. 2.6.21 (including) cancel_rearming_delayed_work()
required a work function should always (unconditionally) rearm with
delay > 0 - otherwise it would endlessly loop. This patch replaces
this function with cancel_delayed_work(). Later kernel versions don't
require this, so here it's only for uniformity.
#2
After deleting a timer in cancel_[rearming_]delayed_work() there could
stay a last skb queued in npinfo->txq causing a memory leak after
kfree(npinfo).

If sky2 device poll routine is called from netpoll_send_skb, it would
deadlock. The netpoll_send_skb held the netif_tx_lock, and the poll
routine could acquire it to clean up skb's. Other drivers might use
same locking model.
The driver is correct, netpoll should not introduce more locking
problems than it causes already. So change the code to drop lock
before calling poll handler.

Having walked through the entire skbuff, skb_seq_read would leave the
last fragment mapped. As a consequence, the unwary caller would leak
kmaps, and proceed with preempt_count off by one. The only (kind of
non-intuitive) workaround is to use skb_seq_read_abort.
This patch makes sure skb_seq_read always unmaps frag_data after
having cycled through the skb's paged part.

This isn't a bug just yet as only TCP uses sk_setup_caps for GSO.
However, if and when UDP or something else starts using it this is
likely to cause a problem if we forget to add software emulation
for it at the same time.
The problem is that right now we translate GSO emulation to the
bitmask NETIF_F_GSO_MASK, which includes every protocol, even
ones that we cannot emulate.
This patch makes it provide only the ones that we can emulate.

in4_pton converts a textual representation of an ip4 address
into an integer representation. However, when the textual representation
is of in the form ip:port, e.g. 192.168.1.1:5060, and 'delim' is set to
-1, the function bails out with an error when reading the colon.
It makes sense to allow the colon as a delimiting character without
explicitly having to set it through the 'delim' variable as there can be
no ambiguity in the point where the ip address is completely parsed. This
function is indeed called from nf_conntrack_sip.c in this way to parse
textual ip:port combinations which fails due to the reason stated above.
