686a7e32ca inetpeer: fix race in unused_list manipulations
Several crashes in cleanup_once() were reported in recent kernels.

Commit d6cc1d642d (inetpeer: various changes) added a race in
unlink_from_unused().

One way to avoid taking unused_peers.lock before doing the list_empty()
test is to catch 0->1 refcnt transitions, using full barrier atomic
operations variants (atomic_cmpxchg() and atomic_inc_return()) instead
of previous atomic_inc() and atomic_add_unless() variants.

We then call unlink_from_unused() only for the owner of the 0->1
transition.

Add a new atomic_add_unless_return() static helper

With help from Arun Sharma.

66944e1c57 inetpeer: reduce stack usage
On 64bit arches, we use 752 bytes of stack when cleanup_once() is called
from inet_getpeer().

Lets share the avl stack to save ~376 bytes.

Before patch :

# objdump -d net/ipv4/inetpeer.o | scripts/checkstack.pl

0x000006c3 unlink_from_pool [inetpeer.o]:		376
0x00000721 unlink_from_pool [inetpeer.o]:		376

46af31800b ipv4: Fix PMTU update.
On current net-next-2.6, when Linux receives ICMP Type: 3, Code: 4
(Destination unreachable (Fragmentation needed)),

  icmp_unreach
    -> ip_rt_frag_needed
         (peer->pmtu_expires is set here)
    -> tcp_v4_err
         -> do_pmtu_discovery
              -> ip_rt_update_pmtu
                   (peer->pmtu_expires is already set,
                    so check_peer_pmtu is skipped.)
                   -> check_peer_pmtu

check_peer_pmtu is skipped and MTU is not updated.

To fix this, let check_peer_pmtu execute unconditionally.
And some minor fixes
1) Avoid potential peer->pmtu_expires set to be zero.
2) In check_peer_pmtu, argument of time_before is reversed.
3) check_peer_pmtu expects peer->pmtu_orig is initialized as zero,
   but not initialized.

65e8354ec1 inetpeer: seqlock optimization
David noticed :

------------------
Eric, I was profiling the non-routing-cache case and something that
stuck out is the case of calling inet_getpeer() with create==0.

If an entry is not found, we have to redo the lookup under a spinlock
to make certain that a concurrent writer rebalancing the tree does
not "hide" an existing entry from us.

This makes the case of a create==0 lookup for a not-present entry
really expensive.  It is on the order of 600 cpu cycles on my
Niagara2.

I added a hack to not do the relookup under the lock when create==0
and it now costs less than 300 cycles.

This is now a pretty common operation with the way we handle COW'd
metrics, so I think it's definitely worth optimizing.
-----------------

One solution is to use a seqlock instead of a spinlock to protect struct
inet_peer_base.

After a failed avl tree lookup, we can easily detect if a writer did
some changes during our lookup. Taking the lock and redo the lookup is
only necessary in this case.

Note: Add one private rcu_deref_locked() macro to place in one spot the
access to spinlock included in seqlock.

ddd4aa424b inetpeer: Add redirect and PMTU discovery cached info.
Validity of the cached PMTU information is indicated by it's
expiration value being non-zero, just as per dst->expires.

The scheme we will use is that we will remember the pre-ICMP value
held in the metrics or route entry, and then at expiration time
we will restore that value.

In this way PMTU expiration does not kill off the cached route as is
done currently.

Redirect information is permanent, or at least until another redirect
is received.

317fe0e6c5 inetpeer: restore small inet_peer structures
Addition of rcu_head to struct inet_peer added 16bytes on 64bit arches.

Thats a bit unfortunate, since old size was exactly 64 bytes.

This can be solved, using an union between this rcu_head an four fields,
that are normally used only when a refcount is taken on inet_peer.
rcu_head is used only when refcnt=-1, right before structure freeing.

Add a inet_peer_refcheck() function to check this assertion for a while.

We can bring back SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN qualifier in kmem cache creation.

aa1039e73c inetpeer: RCU conversion
inetpeer currently uses an AVL tree protected by an rwlock.

It's possible to make most lookups use RCU

1) Add a struct rcu_head to struct inet_peer

2) add a lookup_rcu_bh() helper to perform lockless and opportunistic
lookup. This is a normal function, not a macro like lookup().

3) Add a limit to number of links followed by lookup_rcu_bh(). This is
needed in case we fall in a loop.

4) add an smp_wmb() in link_to_pool() right before node insert.

5) make unlink_from_pool() use atomic_cmpxchg() to make sure it can take
last reference to an inet_peer, since lockless readers could increase
refcount, even while we hold peers.lock.

6) Delay struct inet_peer freeing after rcu grace period so that
lookup_rcu_bh() cannot crash.

7) inet_getpeer() first attempts lockless lookup.
   Note this lookup can fail even if target is in AVL tree, but a
concurrent writer can let tree in a non correct form.
   If this attemps fails, lock is taken a regular lookup is performed
again.

8) convert peers.lock from rwlock to a spinlock

9) Remove SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN when peer_cachep is created, because
rcu_head adds 16 bytes on 64bit arches, doubling effective size (64 ->
128 bytes)
In a future patch, this is probably possible to revert this part, if rcu
field is put in an union to share space with rid, ip_id_count, tcp_ts &
tcp_ts_stamp. These fields being manipulated only with refcnt > 0.

d6cc1d642d inetpeer: various changes
Try to reduce cache line contentions in peer management, to reduce IP
defragmentation overhead.

- peer_fake_node is marked 'const' to make sure its not modified.
  (tested with CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y)

- Group variables in two structures to reduce number of dirtied cache
lines. One named "peers" for avl tree root, its number of entries, and
associated lock. (candidate for RCU conversion)

- A second one named "unused_peers" for unused list and its lock

- Add a !list_empty() test in unlink_from_unused() to avoid taking lock
when entry is not unused.

- Use atomic_dec_and_lock() in inet_putpeer() to avoid taking lock in
some cases.

2c1409a0a2 inetpeer: Optimize inet_getid()
While investigating for network latencies, I found inet_getid() was a
contention point for some workloads, as inet_peer_idlock is shared
by all inet_getid() users regardless of peers.

One way to fix this is to make ip_id_count an atomic_t instead
of __u16, and use atomic_add_return().

In order to keep sizeof(struct inet_peer) = 64 on 64bit arches
tcp_ts_stamp is also converted to __u32 instead of "unsigned long".

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

ba89966c19 [NET]: use __read_mostly on kmem_cache_t , DEFINE_SNMP_STAT pointers
This patch puts mostly read only data in the right section
(read_mostly), to help sharing of these data between CPUS without
memory ping pongs.

On one of my production machine, tcp_statistics was sitting in a
heavily modified cache line, so *every* SNMP update had to force a
reload.

1344a41637 [IPV4]: Fix negative timer loop with lots of ipv4 peers.
From: Dave Johnson <djohnson+linux-kernel@sw.starentnetworks.com>

Found this bug while doing some scaling testing that created 500K inet
peers.

peer_check_expire() in net/ipv4/inetpeer.c isn't using inet_peer_gc_mintime
correctly and will end up creating an expire timer with less than the
minimum duration, and even zero/negative if enough active peers are
present.

If >65K peers, the timer will be less than inet_peer_gc_mintime, and with
>70K peers, the timer duration will reach zero and go negative.

The timer handler will continue to schedule another zero/negative timer in
a loop until peers can be aged.  This can continue for at least a few
minutes or even longer if the peers remain active due to arriving packets
while the loop is occurring.

Bug is present in both 2.4 and 2.6.  Same patch will apply to both just
fine.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
