2007-11-07[NET]: Clean proto_(un)register from in-code ifdefsPavel Emelyanov
The struct proto has the per-cpu "inuse" counter, which is handled with a special care. All the handling code hides under the ifdef CONFIG_SMP and it introduces some code duplication and makes it look worse than it could. Clean this.

2007-11-07[NETNS]: Fix compiler error in net_namespace.cJohann Felix Soden
Because net_free is called by copy_net_ns before its declaration, the compiler gives an error. This patch puts net_free before copy_net_ns to fix this. The compiler error: net/core/net_namespace.c: In function 'copy_net_ns': net/core/net_namespace.c:97: error: implicit declaration of function 'net_free' net/core/net_namespace.c: At top level: net/core/net_namespace.c:104: warning: conflicting types for 'net_free' net/core/net_namespace.c:104: error: static declaration of 'net_free' follows non-static declaration net/core/net_namespace.c:97: error: previous implicit declaration of 'net_free' was here The error was introduced by the '[NET]: Hide the dead code in the net_namespace.c' patch (6a1a3b9f686bb04820a232cc1657ef2c45670709).

2007-11-07[NET]: Define infrastructure to keep 'inuse' changes in an efficent SMP/NUMA ↵Eric Dumazet
way. "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.

2007-11-02[SG] Get rid of __sg_mark_end()Jens Axboe
sg_mark_end() overwrites the page_link information, but all users want __sg_mark_end() behaviour where we just set the end bit. That is the most natural way to use the sg list, since you'll fill it in and then mark the end point. So change sg_mark_end() to only set the termination bit. Add a sg_magic debug check as well, and clear a chain pointer if it is set. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com>

2007-11-01[NET]: Hide the net_ns kmem cachePavel Emelyanov

2007-11-01[NET]: Mark the setup_net as __net_initPavel Emelyanov
The setup_net is called for the init net namespace only (int the CONFIG_NET_NS=n of course) from the __init function, so mark it as __net_init to disappear with the caller after the boot. Yet again, in the perfect world this has to be under #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS, but it isn't guaranteed that every subsystem is registered *after* the init_net_ns is set up. After we are sure, that we don't start registering them before the init net setup, we'll be able to move this code under the ifdef.

2007-11-01[NET]: Hide the dead code in the net_namespace.cPavel Emelyanov
The namespace creation/destruction code is never called if the CONFIG_NET_NS is n, so it's OK to move it under appropriate ifdef. The copy_net_ns() in the "n" case checks for flags and returns -EINVAL when new net ns is requested. In a perfect world this stub must be in net_namespace.h, but this function need to know the CLONE_NEWNET value and thus requires sched.h. On the other hand this header is to be injected into almost every .c file in the networking code, and making all this code depend on the sched.h is a suicidal attempt.

2007-11-01[NETNS]: Make the init/exit hooks checks outside the loopPavel Emelyanov
When the new pernet something (subsys, device or operations) is being registered, the init callback is to be called for each namespace, that currently exitst in the system. During the unregister, the same is to be done with the exit callback. However, not every pernet something has both calls, but the check for the appropriate pointer to be not NULL is performed inside the for_each_net() loop. This is (at least) strange, so tune this.

The security_sk_alloc() and the module_get is a part of the object allocations - move it in the proper place.

2007-11-01[NET]: Move the get_net() from sock_copy()Pavel Emelyanov

2007-10-30[NET]: Fix incorrect sg_mark_end() calls.David S. Miller
This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by commit 68e3f5dd4db62619fdbe520d36c9ebf62e672256 [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 Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-10-30[NETNS]: fix net released by rcu callbackDaniel Lezcano
When a network namespace reference is held by a network subsystem, and when this reference is decremented in a rcu update callback, we must ensure that there is no more outstanding rcu update before trying to free the network namespace. In the normal case, the rcu_barrier is called when the network namespace is exiting in the cleanup_net function. But when a network namespace creation fails, and the subsystems are undone (like the cleanup), the rcu_barrier is missing. This patch adds the missing rcu_barrier.

2007-10-30[NET]: Fix free_netdev on register_netdev failure.Daniel Lezcano
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. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-10-26[NET]: Marking struct pernet_operations __net_initdata was inappropriateEric W. Biederman
It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section. We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys. Which doesn't happen until module unload. 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 it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked list and does horrible things for linked insert. So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded for modules. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

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.

2007-10-19Make access to task's nsproxy lighterPavel Emelyanov
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.

- In ipv6 ndisc_ifinfo_syctl_change so it doesn't depend on binary sysctl names for a function that works with proc. - In neighbour.c reorder the table to put the possibly unused entries at the end so we can remove them by terminating the table early. - In neighbour.c kill the entries with questionable binary sysctl handling behavior. - In neighbour.c if we don't have a strategy routine remove the binary path. So we don't the default sysctl strategy routine on data that is not ready for it. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Cc: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@sw.ru> Cc: "David S.

2007-10-17[IPSEC]: Rename mode to outer_mode and add inner_modeHerbert Xu
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. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-10-17[NET]: Fix the race between sk_filter_(de|at)tach and sk_clone()Pavel Emelyanov
The proposed fix is to delay the reference counter decrement until the quiescent state pass. This will give sk_clone() a chance to get the reference on the cloned filter. Regular sk_filter_uncharge can happen from the sk_free() only and there's no need in delaying the put - the socket is dead anyway and is to be release itself.
