For device memory TCP, we expect the skb headers to be available in host
memory for access, and we expect the skb frags to be in device memory
and unaccessible to the host. We expect there to be no mixing and
matching of device memory frags (unaccessible) with host memory frags
(accessible) in the same skb.
Add a skb->devmem flag which indicates whether the frags in this skb
are device memory frags or not.
__skb_fill_netmem_desc() now checks frags added to skbs for net_iov,
and marks the skb as skb->devmem accordingly.
Add checks through the network stack to avoid accessing the frags of
devmem skbs and avoid coalescing devmem skbs with non devmem skbs.

Convert netmem to be a union of struct page and struct netmem. Overload
the LSB of struct netmem* to indicate that it's a net_iov, otherwise
it's a page.
Currently these entries in struct page are rented by the page_pool and
used exclusively by the net stack:
struct {
unsigned long pp_magic;
struct page_pool *pp;
unsigned long _pp_mapping_pad;
unsigned long dma_addr;
atomic_long_t pp_ref_count;
};
Mirror these (and only these) entries into struct net_iov and implement
netmem helpers that can access these common fields regardless of
whether the underlying type is page or net_iov.
Implement checks for net_iov in netmem helpers which delegate to mm
APIs, to ensure net_iov are never passed to the mm stack.

skb network header of the single-tagged vlan packet continues to point the
vlan payload (e.g. IP) after second vlan tag is pushed by tc act_vlan. This
causes problem at the dissector which expects double-tagged packet network
header to point to the inner vlan.
The fix is to adjust network header in tcf_act_vlan.c but requires
refactoring of skb_vlan_push function.
</tldr>
Consider the following shell script snippet configuring TC rules on the
veth interface:
ip link add veth0 type veth peer veth1
ip link set veth0 up
ip link set veth1 up
tc qdisc add dev veth0 clsact
tc filter add dev veth0 ingress pref 10 chain 0 flower \
num_of_vlans 2 cvlan_ethtype 0x800 action goto chain 5
tc filter add dev veth0 ingress pref 20 chain 0 flower \
num_of_vlans 1 action vlan push id 100 \
protocol 0x8100 action goto chain 5
tc filter add dev veth0 ingress pref 30 chain 5 flower \
num_of_vlans 2 cvlan_ethtype 0x800 action simple sdata "success"
Sending double-tagged vlan packet with the IP payload inside:
cat <<ENDS | text2pcap - - | tcpreplay -i veth1 -
0000 00 00 00 00 00 11 00 00 00 00 00 22 81 00 00 64 ..........."...d

ENDS
will match rule 10, goto rule 30 in chain 5 and correctly emit "success" to
the dmesg.
OTOH, sending single-tagged vlan packet:
cat <<ENDS | text2pcap - - | tcpreplay -i veth1 -
0000 00 00 00 00 00 11 00 00 00 00 00 22 81 00 00 14 ..........."....

0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ............
ENDS
will match rule 20, will push the second vlan tag but will *not* match
rule 30. IOW, the match at rule 30 fails if the second vlan was freshly
pushed by the kernel.
Lets look at __skb_flow_dissect working on the double-tagged vlan packet.
Here is the relevant code from around net/core/flow_dissector.c:1277
copy-pasted here for convenience:
if (dissector_vlan == FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_MAX &&
skb && skb_vlan_tag_present(skb)) {
proto = skb->protocol;
} else {
vlan = __skb_header_pointer(skb, nhoff, sizeof(_vlan),
data, hlen, &_vlan);
if (!vlan) {
fdret = FLOW_DISSECT_RET_OUT_BAD;
break;
}
proto = vlan->h_vlan_encapsulated_proto;
nhoff += sizeof(*vlan);
}
The "else" clause above gets the protocol of the encapsulated packet from
the skb data at the network header location. printk debugging has showed
that in the good double-tagged packet case proto is
htons(0x800 == ETH_P_IP) as expected. However in the single-tagged packet
case proto is garbage leading to the failure to match tc filter 30.
proto is being set from the skb header pointed by nhoff parameter which is
defined at the beginning of __skb_flow_dissect
(net/core/flow_dissector.c:1055 in the current version):
nhoff = skb_network_offset(skb);
Therefore the culprit seems to be that the skb network offset is different
between double-tagged packet received from the interface and single-tagged
packet having its vlan tag pushed by TC.
Lets look at the interesting points of the lifetime of the single/double
tagged packets as they traverse our packet flow.
Both of them will start at __netif_receive_skb_core where the first vlan
tag will be stripped:
if (eth_type_vlan(skb->protocol)) {
skb = skb_vlan_untag(skb);
if (unlikely(!skb))
goto out;
}
At this stage in double-tagged case skb->data points to the second vlan tag
while in single-tagged case skb->data points to the network (eg. IP)
header.
Looking at TC vlan push action (net/sched/act_vlan.c) we have the following
code at tcf_vlan_act (interesting points are in square brackets):
if (skb_at_tc_ingress(skb))
[1] skb_push_rcsum(skb, skb->mac_len);
....
case TCA_VLAN_ACT_PUSH:
err = skb_vlan_push(skb, p->tcfv_push_proto, p->tcfv_push_vid |
(p->tcfv_push_prio << VLAN_PRIO_SHIFT),
0);
if (err)
goto drop;
break;
....
out:
if (skb_at_tc_ingress(skb))
[3] skb_pull_rcsum(skb, skb->mac_len);
And skb_vlan_push (net/core/skbuff.c:6204) function does:
err = __vlan_insert_tag(skb, skb->vlan_proto,
skb_vlan_tag_get(skb));
if (err)
return err;
skb->protocol = skb->vlan_proto;
[2] skb->mac_len += VLAN_HLEN;
in the case of pushing the second tag. Lets look at what happens with
skb->data of the single-tagged packet at each of the above points:
1. As a result of the skb_push_rcsum, skb->data is moved back to the start
of the packet.
2. First VLAN tag is moved from the skb into packet buffer, skb->mac_len is
incremented, skb->data still points to the start of the packet.
3. As a result of the skb_pull_rcsum, skb->data is moved forward by the
modified skb->mac_len, thus pointing to the network header again.
Then __skb_flow_dissect will get confused by having double-tagged vlan
packet with the skb->data at the network header.
The solution for the bug is to preserve "skb->data at second vlan header"
semantics in the skb_vlan_push function. We do this by manipulating
skb->network_header rather than skb->mac_len. skb_vlan_push callers are
updated to do skb_reset_mac_len.

Abstract the memory type from the page_pool so we can later add support
for new memory types. Convert the page_pool to use the new netmem type
abstraction, rather than use struct page directly.
As of this patch the netmem type is a no-op abstraction: it's always a
struct page underneath. All the page pool internals are converted to
use struct netmem instead of struct page, and the page pool now exports
2 APIs:
1. The existing struct page API.
2. The new struct netmem API.
Keeping the existing API is transitional; we do not want to refactor all
the current drivers using the page pool at once.
The netmem abstraction is currently a no-op. The page_pool uses
page_to_netmem() to convert allocated pages to netmem, and uses
netmem_to_page() to convert the netmem back to pages to pass to mm APIs,
Follow up patches to this series add non-paged netmem support to the
page_pool. This change is factored out on its own to limit the code
churn to this 1 patch, for ease of code review.

Long used destructors kfree_skb and kfree_skb_reason do not pass
receiving socket to packet drop tracepoints trace_kfree_skb.
This makes it hard to track packet drops of a certain netns (container)
or a socket (user application).
The naming of these destructors are also not consistent with most sk/skb
operating functions, i.e. functions named "sk_xxx" or "skb_xxx".
Introduce a new functions sk_skb_reason_drop as drop-in replacement for
kfree_skb_reason on local receiving path. Callers can now pass receiving
sockets to the tracepoints.
kfree_skb and kfree_skb_reason are still usable but they are now just
inline helpers that call sk_skb_reason_drop.
Note it is not feasible to do the same to consume_skb. Packets not
dropped can flow through multiple receive handlers, and have multiple
receiving sockets. Leave it untouched for now.

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240424165646.1625690-2-dtatulea@nvidia.com/
The reverted patch interacts very badly with commit 2cc3aeb5ec ("skbuff:
Fix a potential race while recycling page_pool packets"). The reverted
commit hopes that the pp_recycle + is_pp_page variables do not change
between the skb_frag_ref and skb_frag_unref operation. If such a change
occurs, the skb_frag_ref/unref will not operate on the same reference type.
In the case of Dragos's report, the grabbed ref was a pp ref, but the unref
was a page ref, because the pp_recycle setting on the skb was changed.
Attempting to fix this issue on the fly is risky. Lets revert and I hope
to reland this with better understanding and testing to ensure we don't

implement io_uring notification (ubuf_info) stacking (net part)
To have per request buffer notifications each zerocopy io_uring send
request allocates a new ubuf_info. However, as an skb can carry only
one uarg, it may force the stack to create many small skbs hurting
performance in many ways.
The patchset implements notification, i.e. an io_uring's ubuf_info
extension, stacking. It attempts to link ubuf_info's into a list,
allowing to have multiple of them per skb.
liburing/examples/send-zerocopy shows up 6 times performance improvement
for TCP with 4KB bytes per send, and levels it with MSG_ZEROCOPY. Without
the patchset it requires much larger sends to utilise all potential.

At the moment an skb can only have one ubuf_info associated with it,
which might be a performance problem for zerocopy sends in cases like
TCP via io_uring. Add a callback for assigning ubuf_info to skb, this
way we will implement smarter assignment later like linking ubuf_info
together.
Note, it's an optional callback, which should be compatible with
skb_zcopy_set(), that's because the net stack might potentially decide
to clone an skb and take another reference to ubuf_info whenever it
wishes. Also, a correct implementation should always be able to bind to
an skb without prior ubuf_info, otherwise we could end up in a situation
when the send would not be able to progress.

'cpu == raw_smp_processor_id()':
1. running iperf -s and iperf -c [ip] -P [MAX CPU]
2. using BPF to capture skb_attempt_defer_free()

Implement skb_page_ref() to be the mirror of skb_page_unref().
Improve __skb_frag_ref() to become a mirror counterpart of

while the ref could only handle non-pp pages. Now both the ref & unref

Now that __skb_frag_ref() can handle both pp & non-pp pages, remove
skb_pp_frag_ref(), and use __skb_frag_ref() instead. This lets us
remove pp specific handling from skb_try_coalesce.
Additionally, since __skb_frag_ref() can now handle both pp & non-pp

this function would do a non-pp ref & pp unref on potential pp frags
(fragfrom). After this patch, skb_shift() should correctly do a pp
ref/unref on pp frags.

Add a new header, linux/skbuff_ref.h, which contains all the skb_*_ref()
helpers. Many of the consumers of skbuff.h do not actually use any of
the skb ref helpers, and we can speed up compilation a bit by minimizing
this header file.
Additionally in the later patch in the series we add page_pool support
to skb_frag_ref(), which requires some page_pool dependencies. We can
now add these dependencies to skbuff_ref.h instead of a very ubiquitous
skbuff.h

Optimise skb_attempt_defer_free() when run by the same CPU the skb was
allocated on. Instead of __kfree_skb() -> kmem_cache_free() we can
disable softirqs and put the buffer into cpu local caches.
CPU bound TCP ping pong style benchmarking (i.e. netbench) showed a 1%
throughput increase (392.2 -> 396.4 Krps). Cross checking with profiles,
the total CPU share of skb_attempt_defer_free() dropped by 0.6%. Note,
I'd expect the win doubled with rx only benchmarks, as the optimisation
is for the receive path, but the test spends >55% of CPU doing writes.

Since we have pool->p.napi (Jakub) and pool->cpuid (Lorenzo) to check
whether it's safe to use direct recycling, we can use both globally for
each page instead of relying solely on @allow_direct argument.
Let's assume that @allow_direct means "I'm sure it's local, don't waste
time rechecking this" and when it's false, try the mentioned params to
still recycle the page directly. If neither is true, we'll lose some
CPU cycles, but then it surely won't be hotpath. On the other hand,
paths where it's possible to use direct cache, but not possible to
safely set @allow_direct, will benefit from this move.
The whole propagation of @napi_safe through a dozen of skb freeing
functions can now go away, which saves us some stack space.

__napi_alloc_skb() is napi_alloc_skb() with the added flexibility
of choosing gfp_mask. This is a NAPI function, so GFP_ATOMIC is
implied. The only practical choice the caller has is whether to
set __GFP_NOWARN. But that's a false choice, too, allocation failures
in atomic context will happen, and printing warnings in logs,
effectively for a packet drop, is both too much and very likely
non-actionable.
This leads me to a conclusion that most uses of napi_alloc_skb()
are simply misguided, and should use __GFP_NOWARN in the first
place. We also have a "standard" way of reporting allocation
failures via the queue stat API (qstats::rx-alloc-fail).
The direct motivation for this patch is that one of the drivers
used at Meta calls napi_alloc_skb() (so prior to this patch without
__GFP_NOWARN), and the resulting OOM warning is the top networking
warning in our fleet.

The defer_list is a per-CPU list which is used to free skbs outside of
the socket lock and on the CPU on which they have been allocated.
The list is processed during NAPI callbacks so ideally the list is
cleaned up.
Should the amount of skbs on the list exceed a certain water mark then
the softirq is triggered remotely on the target CPU by invoking a remote
function call. The raise of the softirqs via a remote function call
leads to waking the ksoftirqd on PREEMPT_RT which is undesired.
The backlog-NAPI threads already provide the infrastructure which can be
utilized to perform the cleanup of the defer_list.
The NAPI state is updated with the input_pkt_queue.lock acquired. It
order not to break the state, it is needed to also wake the backlog-NAPI
thread with the lock held. This requires to acquire the use the lock in
rps_lock_irq*() if the backlog-NAPI threads are used even with RPS
disabled.
Move the logic of remotely starting softirqs to clean up the defer_list
into kick_defer_list_purge(). Make sure a lock is held in
rps_lock_irq*() if backlog-NAPI threads are used. Schedule backlog-NAPI
for defer_list cleanup if backlog-NAPI is available.

Similar to skb_unref(), add skb_data_unref() to save an expensive
atomic operation (and cache line dirtying) when last reference
on shinfo->dataref is released.
I saw this opportunity on hosts with RAW sockets accidentally
bound to UDP protocol, forcing an skb_clone() on all received packets.
These RAW sockets had their receive queue full, so all clone
packets were immediately dropped.
When UDP recvmsg() consumes later the original skb, skb_release_data()
is hitting atomic_sub_return() quite badly, because skb->clone
has been set permanently.
Note that this patch helps TCP TX performance, because
TCP stack also use (fast) clones.
This means that at least one of the two packets (the main skb or
its clone) will no longer have to perform this atomic operation
in skb_release_data().

napi_alloc_frag_align() and netdev_alloc_frag_align() accept
align as an argument, and they are thin wrappers around the
__napi_alloc_frag_align() and __netdev_alloc_frag_align() APIs
doing the alignment checking and align mask conversion, in order
to call page_frag_alloc_align() directly. The intention here is
to keep the alignment checking and the alignmask conversion in
in-line wrapper to avoid those kind of operations during execution
time since it can usually be handled during compile time.
We are going to use page_frag_alloc_align() in vhost_net.c, it
need the same kind of alignment checking and alignmask conversion,
so split up page_frag_alloc_align into an inline wrapper doing the
above operation, and add __page_frag_alloc_align() which is passed
with the align mask the original function expected as suggested by

before doing a cast.

Now that direct recycling is performed basing on pool->cpuid when set,
memory leaks are possible:
1. A pool is destroyed.
2. Alloc cache is emptied (it's done only once).
3. pool->cpuid is still set.
4. napi_pp_put_page() does direct recycling basing on pool->cpuid.
5. Now alloc cache is not empty, but it won't ever be freed.
In order to avoid that, rewrite pool->cpuid to -1 when unlinking NAPI to
make sure no direct recycling will be possible after emptying the cache.
This involves a bit of overhead as pool->cpuid now must be accessed
via READ_ONCE() to avoid partial reads.
Rename page_pool_unlink_napi() -> page_pool_disable_direct_recycling()
to reflect what it actually does and unexport it.

This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
up to 40%.
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
bad PP users and possible leaks.
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
many active connections to the same destination.
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs.
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
to 128KB and namespecifying it.
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations.
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries.
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first.
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
- More data-race annotations.
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
BPF
---
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs.
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified
by its id.
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field
obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext.
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter.
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints.
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project
is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter).

tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families
for which we have specs.
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes.

Driver API
----------
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust.

Instead of using slab-internal KASAN hooks for poisoning and unpoisoning
cached objects, use the proper mempool KASAN hooks.
Also check the return value of kasan_mempool_poison_object to prevent
double-free and invali-free bugs.

Rename kasan_unpoison_object_data to kasan_unpoison_new_object and add a
documentation comment. Do the same for kasan_poison_object_data.
The new names and the comments should suggest the users that these hooks
are intended for internal use by the slab allocator.
The following patch will remove non-slab-internal uses of these hooks.
No functional changes.
