c76562b670 netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock
This patch series is based on top of "Swap-over-NBD without deadlocking
v15" as it depends on the same reservation of PF_MEMALLOC reserves logic.

When a user or administrator requires swap for their application, they
create a swap partition and file, format it with mkswap and activate it
with swapon.  In diskless systems this is not an option so if swap if
required then swapping over the network is considered.  The two likely
scenarios are when blade servers are used as part of a cluster where the
form factor or maintenance costs do not allow the use of disks and thin
clients.

The Linux Terminal Server Project recommends the use of the Network Block
Device (NBD) for swap but this is not always an option.  There is no
guarantee that the network attached storage (NAS) device is running Linux
or supports NBD.  However, it is likely that it supports NFS so there are
users that want support for swapping over NFS despite any performance
concern.  Some distributions currently carry patches that support swapping
over NFS but it would be preferable to support it in the mainline kernel.

Patch 1 avoids a stream-specific deadlock that potentially affects TCP.

Patch 2 is a small modification to SELinux to avoid using PFMEMALLOC
	reserves.

Patch 3 adds three helpers for filesystems to handle swap cache pages.
	For example, page_file_mapping() returns page->mapping for
	file-backed pages and the address_space of the underlying
	swap file for swap cache pages.

Patch 4 adds two address_space_operations to allow a filesystem
	to pin all metadata relevant to a swapfile in memory. Upon
	successful activation, the swapfile is marked SWP_FILE and
	the address space operation ->direct_IO is used for writing
	and ->readpage for reading in swap pages.

Patch 5 notes that patch 3 is bolting
	filesystem-specific-swapfile-support onto the side and that
	the default handlers have different information to what
	is available to the filesystem. This patch refactors the
	code so that there are generic handlers for each of the new
	address_space operations.

Patch 6 adds an API to allow a vector of kernel addresses to be
	translated to struct pages and pinned for IO.

Patch 7 adds support for using highmem pages for swap by kmapping
	the pages before calling the direct_IO handler.

Patch 8 updates NFS to use the helpers from patch 3 where necessary.

Patch 9 avoids setting PF_private on PG_swapcache pages within NFS.

Patch 10 implements the new swapfile-related address_space operations
	for NFS and teaches the direct IO handler how to manage
	kernel addresses.

Patch 11 prevents page allocator recursions in NFS by using GFP_NOIO
	where appropriate.

Patch 12 fixes a NULL pointer dereference that occurs when using
	swap-over-NFS.

With the patches applied, it is possible to mount a swapfile that is on an
NFS filesystem.  Swap performance is not great with a swap stress test
taking roughly twice as long to complete than if the swap device was
backed by NBD.

This patch: netvm: prevent a stream-specific deadlock

It could happen that all !SOCK_MEMALLOC sockets have buffered so much data
that we're over the global rmem limit.  This will prevent SOCK_MEMALLOC
buffers from receiving data, which will prevent userspace from running,
which is needed to reduce the buffered data.

Fix this by exempting the SOCK_MEMALLOC sockets from the rmem limit.  Once
this change it applied, it is important that sockets that set
SOCK_MEMALLOC do not clear the flag until the socket is being torn down.
If this happens, a warning is generated and the tokens reclaimed to avoid
accounting errors until the bug is fixed.

b4b9e35585 netvm: set PF_MEMALLOC as appropriate during SKB processing
In order to make sure pfmemalloc packets receive all memory needed to
proceed, ensure processing of pfmemalloc SKBs happens under PF_MEMALLOC.
This is limited to a subset of protocols that are expected to be used for
writing to swap.  Taps are not allowed to use PF_MEMALLOC as these are
expected to communicate with userspace processes which could be paged out.

c93bdd0e03 netvm: allow skb allocation to use PFMEMALLOC reserves
Change the skb allocation API to indicate RX usage and use this to fall
back to the PFMEMALLOC reserve when needed.  SKBs allocated from the
reserve are tagged in skb->pfmemalloc.  If an SKB is allocated from the
reserve and the socket is later found to be unrelated to page reclaim, the
packet is dropped so that the memory remains available for page reclaim.
Network protocols are expected to recover from this packet loss.

7cb0240492 netvm: allow the use of __GFP_MEMALLOC by specific sockets
Allow specific sockets to be tagged SOCK_MEMALLOC and use __GFP_MEMALLOC
for their allocations.  These sockets will be able to go below watermarks
and allocate from the emergency reserve.  Such sockets are to be used to
service the VM (iow.  to swap over).  They must be handled kernel side,
exposing such a socket to user-space is a bug.

There is a risk that the reserves be depleted so for now, the
administrator is responsible for increasing min_free_kbytes as necessary
to prevent deadlock for their workloads.

54764bb647 ipv4: Restore old dst_free() behavior.
commit 404e0a8b6a (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried
to solve a race but added a problem at device/fib dismantle time :

We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
still have dst in their cache.
dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.

Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.

Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)

I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes
to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in
this code.

404e0a8b6a net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts
commit c6cffba4ff (ipv4: Fix input route performance regression.)
added various fatal races with dst refcounts.

crashes happen on tcp workloads if routes are added/deleted at the same
time.

The dst_free() calls from free_fib_info_rcu() are clearly racy.

We need instead regular dst refcounting (dst_release()) and make
sure dst_release() is aware of RCU grace periods :

Add DST_RCU_FREE flag so that dst_release() respects an RCU grace period
before dst destruction for cached dst

Introduce a new inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper, using atomic_inc_not_zero()
to make sure we dont increase a zero refcount (On a dst currently
waiting an rcu grace period before destruction)

rt_cache_route() must take a reference on the new cached route, and
release it if was not able to install it.

With this patch, my machines survive various benchmarks.

8253947e2c ipv6: fix incorrect route 'expires' value passed to userspace
When userspace use RTM_GETROUTE to dump route table, with an already
expired route entry, we always got an 'expires' value(2147157)
calculated base on INT_MAX.

The reason of this problem is in the following satement:
	rt->dst.expires - jiffies < INT_MAX
gcc promoted the type of both sides of '<' to unsigned long, thus
a small negative value would be considered greater than INT_MAX.

With the help of Eric Dumazet, do the out of bound checks in
rtnl_put_cacheinfo(), _after_ conversion to clock_t.

b1beb681cb net: fix rtnetlink IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI handling
When device flags are set using rtnetlink, IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI
flags are handled specially. Function dev_change_flags sets IFF_PROMISC and
IFF_ALLMULTI bits in dev->gflags according to the passed value but
do_setlink passes a result of rtnl_dev_combine_flags which takes those bits
from dev->flags.

This can be easily trigerred by doing:

tcpdump -i eth0 &
ip l s up eth0

ip sets IFF_UP flag in ifi_flags and ifi_change, which is combined with
IFF_PROMISC by rtnl_dev_combine_flags, causing __dev_change_flags to set
IFF_PROMISC in gflags.

Pull networking changes from David S Miller:

 1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache.  Now lookups go directly into the FIB
    trie and use prebuilt routes cached there.

    No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing
    cache.  Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance,
    no matter what the pattern of traffic we service.

    This has been almost 2 years in the making.  Special thanks to
    Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who
    have helped along the way.

    I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some
    kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this
    point.  Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to
    fix things :-)

    The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced
    merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description
    of the motivations and implementation issues.

 2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on
    input.

 3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao
    Feng.

 5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from
    Yuval Mintz.

 6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo
    Neira Ayuso.

 8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver,
    from Jiri Pirko.

 9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with
    embedded gotos.

10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued
    up in the packet scheduler layer.  Whereas the existing BQL (Byte
    Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --> netdevice queuing levels,
    this controls the TCP --> pkt_sched queueing levels.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments,
    from Alexander Duyck.

12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from
    Eric Dumazet.

13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to
    send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng.

    Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using
    MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up
    fastopen data.

14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events
    hit a locked socket.  The TCP Small Queues changes added a
    tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the
    release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too.  From Eric
    Dumazet.

15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S. Tsirkin.

     on success and 1 in "deal with it yourself" case (e.g.  symlink
     found on server, etc.).

     See comments before fs/namei.c:atomic_open().  That made a lot of
     goodies finally possible and quite a few are in that pile:
     ->lookup(), ->d_revalidate() and ->create() do not get struct
     nameidata * anymore; ->lookup() and ->d_revalidate() get lookup
     flags instead, ->create() gets "do we want it exclusive" flag.

     With the introduction of new helper (kern_path_locked()) we are rid
     of all struct nameidata instances outside of fs/namei.c; it's still
     visible in namei.h, but not for long.  Come the next cycle,
     declaration will move either to fs/internal.h or to fs/namei.c
     itself.  [me, miklos, hch]

   - The second major change: behaviour of final fput().  Now we have
     __fput() done without any locks held by caller *and* not from deep
     in call stack.

     That obviously lifts a lot of constraints on the locking in there.
     Moreover, it's legal now to call fput() from atomic contexts (which
     has immediately simplified life for aio.c).  We also don't need
     anti-recursion logics in __scm_destroy() anymore.

     There is a price, though - the damn thing has become partially
     asynchronous.  For fput() from normal process we are guaranteed
     that pending __fput() will be done before the caller returns to
     userland, exits or gets stopped for ptrace.

     For kernel threads and atomic contexts it's done via
     schedule_work(), so theoretically we might need a way to make sure
     it's finished; so far only one such place had been found, but there
     might be more.

     There's flush_delayed_fput() (do all pending __fput()) and there's
     __fput_sync() (fput() analog doing __fput() immediately).  I hope
     we won't need them often; see warnings in fs/file_table.c for
     details.  [me, based on task_work series from Oleg merged last
     cycle]

   - sync series from Jan

   - large part of "death to sync_supers()" work from Artem; the only
     bits missing here are exofs and ext4 ones.  As far as I understand,
     those are going via the exofs and ext4 trees resp.; once they are
     in, we can put ->write_super() to the rest, along with the thread
     calling it.

   - preparatory bits from unionmount series (from dhowells).

   - assorted cleanups and fixes all over the place, as usual.

  This is not the last pile for this cycle; there's at least jlayton's
  ESTALE work and fsfreeze series (the latter - in dire need of fixes,
  so I'm not sure it'll make the cut this cycle).  I'll probably throw
  symlink/hardlink restrictions stuff from Kees into the next pile, too.

5e9965c15b Merge branch 'kill_rtcache'
The ipv4 routing cache is non-deterministic, performance wise, and is
subject to reasonably easy to launch denial of service attacks.

The routing cache works great for well behaved traffic, and the world
was a much friendlier place when the tradeoffs that led to the routing
cache's design were considered.

What it boils down to is that the performance of the routing cache is
a product of the traffic patterns seen by a system rather than being a
product of the contents of the routing tables.  The former of which is
controllable by external entitites.

Even for "well behaved" legitimate traffic, high volume sites can see
hit rates in the routing cache of only ~%10.

The general flow of this patch series is that first the routing cache
is removed.  We build a completely new rtable entry every lookup
request.

Next we make some simplifications due to the fact that removing the
routing cache causes several members of struct rtable to become no
longer necessary.

Then we need to make some amends such that we can legally cache
pre-constructed routes in the FIB nexthops.  Firstly, we need to
invalidate routes which are hit with nexthop exceptions.  Secondly we
have to change the semantics of rt->rt_gateway such that zero means
that the destination is on-link and non-zero otherwise.

Now that the preparations are ready, we start caching precomputed
routes in the FIB nexthops.  Output and input routes need different
kinds of care when determining if we can legally do such caching or
not.  The details are in the commit log messages for those changes.

The patch series then winds down with some more struct rtable
simplifications and other tidy ups that remove unnecessary overhead.

On a SPARC-T3 output route lookups are ~876 cycles.  Input route
lookups are ~1169 cycles with rpfilter disabled, and about ~1468
cycles with rpfilter enabled.

These measurements were taken with the kbench_mod test module in the
net_test_tools GIT tree:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net_test_tools.git

That GIT tree also includes a udpflood tester tool and stresses
route lookups on packet output.

For example, on the same SPARC-T3 system we can run:

	time ./udpflood -l 10000000 10.2.2.11

with routing cache:
real    1m21.955s       user    0m6.530s        sys     1m15.390s

without routing cache:
real    1m31.678s       user    0m6.520s        sys     1m25.140s

Performance undoubtedly can easily be improved further.

For example fib_table_lookup() performs a lot of excessive
computations with all the masking and shifting, some of it
conditionalized to deal with edge cases.

Also, Eric's no-ref optimization for input route lookups can be
re-instated for the FIB nexthop caching code path.  I would be really
pleased if someone would work on that.

In fact anyone suitable motivated can just fire up perf on the loading
of the test net_test_tools benchmark kernel module.  I spend much of
my time going:

bash# perf record insmod ./kbench_mod.ko dst=172.30.42.22 src=74.128.0.1 iif=2
bash# perf report

406a3c638c net: netprio_cgroup: rework update socket logic
Instead of updating the sk_cgrp_prioidx struct field on every send
this only updates the field when a task is moved via cgroup
infrastructure.

This allows sockets that may be used by a kernel worker thread
to be managed. For example in the iscsi case today a user can
put iscsid in a netprio cgroup and control traffic will be sent
with the correct sk_cgrp_prioidx value set but as soon as data
is sent the kernel worker thread isssues a send and sk_cgrp_prioidx
is updated with the kernel worker threads value which is the
default case.

It seems more correct to only update the field when the user
explicitly sets it via control group infrastructure. This allows
the users to manage sockets that may be used with other threads.

1d69c2b343 rtnl: Add #ifdef CONFIG_RPS around num_rx_queues reference
Commit 76ff5cc919
(rtnl: allow to specify number of rx and tx queues
on device creation) added a reference to the net_device
structure's 'num_rx_queues' member in

	net/core/rtnetlink.c:rtnl_fill_ifinfo()

However, the definition for 'num_rx_queues' is surrounded
by an '#ifdef CONFIG_RPS' while the new reference to it is
not.  This causes a compile error when CONFIG_RPS is not
defined.

Fix the compile error by surrounding the new reference to
'num_rx_queues' by an '#ifdef CONFIG_RPS'.

ef209f1598 net: cgroup: fix access the unallocated memory in netprio cgroup
there are some out of bound accesses in netprio cgroup.

now before accessing the dev->priomap.priomap array,we only check
if the dev->priomap exist.and because we don't want to see
additional bound checkings in fast path, so we should make sure
that dev->priomap is null or array size of dev->priomap.priomap
is equal to max_prioidx + 1;

so in write_priomap logic,we should call extend_netdev_table when
dev->priomap is null and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len.
and in cgrp_create->update_netdev_tables logic,we should call
extend_netdev_table only when dev->priomap exist and
dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len.

and it's not needed to call update_netdev_tables in write_priomap,
we can only allocate the net device's priomap which we change through
net_prio.ifpriomap.

this patch also add a return value for update_netdev_tables &
extend_netdev_table, so when new_priomap is allocated failed,
write_priomap will stop to access the priomap,and return -ENOMEM
back to the userspace to tell the user what happend.

Change From v3:
1. add rtnl protect when reading max_prioidx in write_priomap.

2. only call extend_netdev_table when map->priomap_len < max_len,
   this will make sure array size of dev->map->priomap always
   bigger than any prioidx.

3. add a function write_update_netdev_table to make codes clear.

Change From v2:
1. protect extend_netdev_table by RTNL.
2. when extend_netdev_table failed,call dev_put to reduce device's refcount.

540eb7bf0b net: Update alloc frag to reduce get/put page usage and recycle pages
This patch is meant to help improve performance by reducing the number of
locked operations required to allocate a frag on x86 and other platforms.
This is accomplished by using atomic_set operations on the page count
instead of calling get_page and put_page.  It is based on work originally
provided by Eric Dumazet.

In addition it also helps to reduce memory overhead when using TCP.  This
is done by recycling the page if the only holder of the frame is the
netdev_alloc_frag call itself.  This can occur when skb heads are stolen by
either GRO or TCP and the driver providing the packets is using paged frags
to store all of the data for the packets.

46d3ceabd8 tcp: TCP Small Queues
This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)

TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.

sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.

TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.

As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.

This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.

Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.

Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)

I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.

As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.

If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.

[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
  but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
  These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
  session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
  have no effect.

b761c9b1f4 cgroup: fix panic in netprio_cgroup
we set max_prioidx to the first zero bit index of prioidx_map in
function get_prioidx.

So when we delete the low index netprio cgroup and adding a new
netprio cgroup again,the max_prioidx will be set to the low index.

when we set the high index cgroup's net_prio.ifpriomap,the function
write_priomap will call update_netdev_tables to alloc memory which
size is sizeof(struct netprio_map) + sizeof(u32) * (max_prioidx + 1),
so the size of array that map->priomap point to is max_prioidx +1,
which is low than what we actually need.

Most multi-queue networking driver consider the number of online cpus when

This patch adds a wrapper to the number of cpus, setting an upper limit on the

When a dst_confirm() happens, mark the confirmation as pending in the
dst.  Then on the next packet out, when we have the neigh in-hand, do
the update.

This removes the dependency in dst_confirm() of dst's having an
attached neigh.

While we're here, remove the explicit 'dst' NULL check, all except 2

a31f2d17b3 netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_create
This patch adds the following structure:

struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
        unsigned int    groups;
        void            (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
        struct mutex    *cb_mutex;
};

That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.

I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.

That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.

This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

7a9bc9b81a ipv4: Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible.
If rpfilter is off (or the SKB has an IPSEC path) and there are not
tclassid users, we don't have to do anything at all when
fib_validate_source() is invoked besides setting the itag to zero.

We monitor tclassid uses with a counter (modified only under RTNL and
marked __read_mostly) and we protect the fib_validate_source() real
work with a test against this counter and whether rpfilter is to be
done.

Having a way to know whether we need no tclassid processing or not
also opens the door for future optimized rpfilter algorithms that do
not perform full FIB lookups.

41063e9dd1 ipv4: Early TCP socket demux.
Input packet processing for local sockets involves two major demuxes.
One for the route and one for the socket.

But we can optimize this down to one demux for certain kinds of local
sockets.

Currently we only do this for established TCP sockets, but it could
at least in theory be expanded to other kinds of connections.

If a TCP socket is established then it's identity is fully specified.

This means that whatever input route was used during the three-way
handshake must work equally well for the rest of the connection since
the keys will not change.

Once we move to established state, we cache the receive packet's input
route to use later.

Like the existing cached route in sk->sk_dst_cache used for output
packets, we have to check for route invalidations using dst->obsolete
and dst->ops->check().

Early demux occurs outside of a socket locked section, so when a route
invalidation occurs we defer the fixup of sk->sk_rx_dst until we are
actually inside of established state packet processing and thus have
the socket locked.

62b1a8ab9b net: remove skb_orphan_try()
Orphaning skb in dev_hard_start_xmit() makes bonding behavior
unfriendly for applications sending big UDP bursts : Once packets
pass the bonding device and come to real device, they might hit a full
qdisc and be dropped. Without orphaning, the sender is automatically
throttled because sk->sk_wmemalloc reaches sk->sk_sndbuf (assuming
sk_sndbuf is not too big)

We could try to defer the orphaning adding another test in
dev_hard_start_xmit(), but all this seems of little gain,
now that BQL tends to make packets more likely to be parked
in Qdisc queues instead of NIC TX ring, in cases where performance
matters.

954fba0274 netpoll: fix netpoll_send_udp() bugs
Bogdan Hamciuc diagnosed and fixed following bug in netpoll_send_udp() :

"skb->len += len;" instead of "skb_put(skb, len);"

Meaning that _if_ a network driver needs to call skb_realloc_headroom(),
only packet headers would be copied, leaving garbage in the payload.

However the skb_realloc_headroom() must be avoided as much as possible
since it requires memory and netpoll tries hard to work even if memory
is exhausted (using a pool of preallocated skbs)

It appears netpoll_send_udp() reserved 16 bytes for the ethernet header,
which happens to work for typicall drivers but not all.

Right thing is to use LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev)
(And also add dev->needed_tailroom of tailroom)

This patch combines both fixes.

Many thanks to Bogdan for raising this issue.

047fe36052 splice: fix racy pipe->buffers uses
Dave Jones reported a kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:3474! triggered
by splice_shrink_spd() called from vmsplice_to_pipe()

commit 35f3d14dbb (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes)
added capability to adjust pipe->buffers.

Problem is some paths don't hold pipe mutex and assume pipe->buffers
doesn't change for their duration.

Fix this by adding nr_pages_max field in struct splice_pipe_desc, and
use it in place of pipe->buffers where appropriate.

splice_shrink_spd() loses its struct pipe_inode_info argument.

need and are not IP-only functions, but they were not available to reuse

644473e9c6 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull user namespace enhancements from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a course correction for the user namespace, so that we can
  reach an inexpensive, maintainable, and reasonably complete
  implementation.

  Highlights:
   - Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and
     code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe.

   - Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the
     config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable
     user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
     checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.

   - All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
     user namespace before they are processed.  Removing the need to add
     an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
     uids remains the same.

   - With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
     better than it is today.

   - For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
     operationally with the user namespace enabled.

   - The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
     billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
     enabled.  This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
     164ns per stat operation).

   - (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
     Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
     anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
     entertaining failures in userspace.

   - If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
     I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
     could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
     handle the case where setuid fails.

   - If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
     we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid.  The LFS
     experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
     better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
     can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
     can't map.

   - Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
     safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.

  My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
  kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."

bad43ca832 net: introduce skb_try_coalesce()
Move tcp_try_coalesce() protocol independent part to
skb_try_coalesce().

skb_try_coalesce() can be used in IPv4 defrag and IPv6 reassembly,
to build optimized skbs (less sk_buff, and possibly less 'headers')

skb_try_coalesce() is zero copy, unless the copy can fit in destination
header (its a rare case)

kfree_skb_partial() is also moved to net/core/skbuff.c and exported,
because IPv6 will need it in patch (ipv6: use skb coalescing in
reassembly).

6f532612cc net: introduce netdev_alloc_frag()
Fix two issues introduced in commit a1c7fff7e1
( net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb() )

- Must be IRQ safe (non NAPI drivers can use it)
- Must not leak the frag if build_skb() fails to allocate sk_buff

This patch introduces netdev_alloc_frag() for drivers willing to
use build_skb() instead of __netdev_alloc_skb() variants.

Factorize code so that :
__dev_alloc_skb() is a wrapper around __netdev_alloc_skb(), and
dev_alloc_skb() a wrapper around netdev_alloc_skb()

Use __GFP_COLD flag.

Almost all network drivers now benefit from skb->head_frag
infrastructure.

cad456d5ab drop_monitor: convert to modular building
When I first wrote drop monitor I wrote it to just build monolithically.  There
is no reason it can't be built modularly as well, so lets give it that
flexibiity.

I've tested this by building it as both a module and monolithically, and it
seems to work quite well

Change notes:

v2)
* fixed for_each_present_cpu loops to be more correct as per Eric D.
* Converted exit path failures to BUG_ON as per Ben H.

v3)
* Converted del_timer to del_timer_sync to close race noted by Ben H.

This permits a zero copy splice(socket->pipe), and better GRO or TCP

9202e31d46 skb: Drop bad code from pskb_expand_head
The fast-path for pskb_expand_head contains a check where the size plus the
unaligned size of skb_shared_info is compared against the size of the data
buffer.  This code path has two issues.  First is the fact that after the
recent changes by Eric Dumazet to __alloc_skb and build_skb the shared info
is always placed in the optimal spot for a buffer size making this check
unnecessary.  The second issue is the fact that the check doesn't take into
account the aligned size of shared info.  As a result the code burns cycles
doing a memcpy with nothing actually being shifted.

2996d31f9f net: Stop decapitating clones that have a head_frag
This change is meant ot prevent stealing the skb->head to use as a page in
the event that the skb->head was cloned.  This allows the other clones to
track each other via shinfo->dataref.

Without this we break down to two methods for tracking the reference count,
one being dataref, the other being the page count.  As a result it becomes
difficult to track how many references there are to skb->head.

4fdcfa1284 drop_monitor: prevent init path from scheduling on the wrong cpu
I just noticed after some recent updates, that the init path for the drop
monitor protocol has a minor error.  drop monitor maintains a per cpu structure,
that gets initalized from a single cpu.  Normally this is fine, as the protocol
isn't in use yet, but I recently made a change that causes a failed skb
allocation to reschedule itself .  Given the current code, the implication is
that this workqueue reschedule will take place on the wrong cpu.  If drop
monitor is used early during the boot process, its possible that two cpus will
access a single per-cpu structure in parallel, possibly leading to data
corruption.

This patch fixes the situation, by storing the cpu number that a given instance
of this per-cpu data should be accessed from.  In the case of a need for a
reschedule, the cpu stored in the struct is assigned the rescheule, rather than
the currently executing cpu

Tested successfully by myself.

d7e8883cfc net: make GRO aware of skb->head_frag
GRO can check if skb to be merged has its skb->head mapped to a page
fragment, instead of a kmalloc() area.

We 'upgrade' skb->head as a fragment in itself

This avoids the frag_list fallback, and permits to build true GRO skb
(one sk_buff and up to 16 fragments), using less memory.

This reduces number of cache misses when user makes its copy, since a
single sk_buff is fetched.

This is a followup of patch "net: allow skb->head to be a page fragment"

d3836f21b0 net: allow skb->head to be a page fragment
skb->head is currently allocated from kmalloc(). This is convenient but
has the drawback the data cannot be converted to a page fragment if
needed.

We have three spots were it hurts :

1) GRO aggregation

 When a linear skb must be appended to another skb, GRO uses the
frag_list fallback, very inefficient since we keep all struct sk_buff
around. So drivers enabling GRO but delivering linear skbs to network
stack aren't enabling full GRO power.

2) splice(socket -> pipe).

 We must copy the linear part to a page fragment.
 This kind of defeats splice() purpose (zero copy claim)

3) TCP coalescing.

 Recently introduced, this permits to group several contiguous segments
into a single skb. This shortens queue lengths and save kernel memory,
and greatly reduce probabilities of TCP collapses. This coalescing
doesnt work on linear skbs (or we would need to copy data, this would be
too slow)

Given all these issues, the following patch introduces the possibility
of having skb->head be a fragment in itself. We use a new skb flag,
skb->head_frag to carry this information.

build_skb() is changed to accept a frag_size argument. Drivers willing
to provide a page fragment instead of kmalloc() data will set a non zero
value, set to the fragment size.

Then, on situations we need to convert the skb head to a frag in itself,
we can check if skb->head_frag is set and avoid the copies or various
fallbacks we have.

This means drivers currently using frags could be updated to avoid the
current skb->head allocation and reduce their memory footprint (aka skb
truesize). (thats 512 or 1024 bytes saved per skb). This also makes
bpf/netfilter faster since the 'first frag' will be part of skb linear
part, no need to copy data.

It stems from holding a spinlock (trace_state_lock) while attempting to register
or unregister tracepoint hooks, making in_atomic() true in this context, leading
to the warning when the tracepoint calls might_sleep() while its taking a mutex.
Since we only use the trace_state_lock to prevent trace protocol state races, as
well as hardware stat list updates on an rcu write side, we can just convert the
spinlock to a mutex to avoid this problem.

Its not needed since skb lengths are capped. The default on-stack arrays

That is a very silly way to go.  Just register the network sysctls
in the initial network namespace and we don't have any weird special
cases to deal with.

The sysctls affected are:
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_max_dist
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/ip6frag_secret_interval
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/mld_max_msf

child user namespace.

d83b060360 net: add fdb generic dump routine
This adds a generic dump routine drivers can call. It
should be sufficient to handle any bridging model that
uses the unicast address list. This should be most SR-IOV
enabled NICs.

v2: return error on nlmsg_put and use -EMSGSIZE instead
    of -ENOMEM this is inline other usages

12a9463445 net: addr_list: add exclusive dev_uc_add and dev_mc_add
This adds a dev_uc_add_excl() and dev_mc_add_excl() calls
similar to the original dev_{uc|mc}_add() except it sets
the global bit and returns -EEXIST for duplicat entires.

This is useful for drivers that support SR-IOV, macvlan
devices and any other devices that need to manage the
unicast and multicast lists.

v2: fix typo UNICAST should be MULTICAST in dev_mc_add_excl()

77162022ab net: add generic PF_BRIDGE:RTM_ FDB hooks
This adds two new flags NTF_MASTER and NTF_SELF that can
now be used to specify where PF_BRIDGE netlink commands should
be sent. NTF_MASTER sends the commands to the 'dev->master'
device for parsing. Typically this will be the linux net/bridge,
or open-vswitch devices. Also without any flags set the command
will be handled by the master device as well so that current user
space tools continue to work as expected.

The NTF_SELF flag will push the PF_BRIDGE commands to the
device. In the basic example below the commands are then parsed
and programmed in the embedded bridge.

Note if both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER bits are set then the
command will be sent to both 'dev->master' and 'dev' this allows
user space to easily keep the embedded bridge and software bridge
in sync.

There is a slight complication in the case with both flags set
when an error occurs. To resolve this the rtnl handler clears
the NTF_ flag in the netlink ack to indicate which sets completed
successfully. The add/del handlers will abort as soon as any
error occurs.

To support this new net device ops were added to call into
the device and the existing bridging code was refactored
to use these. There should be no required changes in user space
to support the current bridge behavior.

A basic setup with a SR-IOV enabled NIC looks like this,

          veth0  veth2
            |      |
          ------------
          |  bridge0 |   <---- software bridging
          ------------
               /
               /
  ethx.y      ethx
    VF         PF
     \         \          <---- propagate FDB entries to HW
     \         \
  --------------------
  |  Embedded Bridge |    <---- hardware offloaded switching
  --------------------

In this case the embedded bridge must be managed to allow 'veth0'
to communicate with 'ethx.y' correctly. At present drivers managing
the embedded bridge either send frames onto the network which
then get dropped by the switch OR the embedded bridge will flood
these frames. With this patch we have a mechanism to manage the
embedded bridge correctly from user space. This example is specific
to SR-IOV but replacing the VF with another PF or dropping this
into the DSA framework generates similar management issues.

Examples session using the 'br'[1] tool to add, dump and then
delete a mac address with a new "embedded" option and enabled
ixgbe driver:

# br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 dev eth3
# br fdb
port    mac addr                flags
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
#br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3
#br fdb
port    mac addr                flags
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       local embedded
#br fdb del 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3

I added a couple lines to 'br' to set the flags correctly is all. It
is my opinion that the merit of this patch is now embedded and SW
bridges can both be modeled correctly in user space using very nearly
the same message passing.

[1] 'br' tool was published as an RFC here and will be renamed 'bridge'
    http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/117664/

Thanks to Jamal Hadi Salim, Stephen Hemminger and Ben Hutchings for
valuable feedback, suggestions, and review.

v2: fixed api descriptions and error case with both NTF_SELF and
    NTF_MASTER set plus updated patch description.

46b325c7eb sk_run_filter: add BPF_S_ANC_SECCOMP_LD_W
Introduces a new BPF ancillary instruction that all LD calls will be
mapped through when skb_run_filter() is being used for seccomp BPF.  The
rewriting will be done using a secondary chk_filter function that is run
after skb_chk_filter.

The code change is guarded by CONFIG_SECCOMP_FILTER which is added,
along with the seccomp_bpf_load() function later in this series.

This is based on http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/3/2/141
