inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count

2014-06-02T18:00:41Z

Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP generator. linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge cost on servers disabling MTU discovery. 1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes 2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs, with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load. 3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth is about 20. 4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id()) 5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively. IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect' Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time, so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments with a recycled ID. We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP as a key. ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it belongs (it is only used from this file) secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed. Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv4: make ip_local_reserved_ports per netns

2014-05-14T19:31:45Z

ip_local_port_range is already per netns, so should ip_local_reserved_ports be. And since it is none by default we don't actually need it when we don't enable CONFIG_SYSCTL. By the way, rename inet_is_reserved_local_port() to inet_is_local_reserved_port() Cc: "David S. Miller" Signed-off-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: add a sysctl to reflect the fwmark on replies

2014-05-13T22:35:08Z

Kernel-originated IP packets that have no user socket associated with them (e.g., ICMP errors and echo replies, TCP RSTs, etc.) are emitted with a mark of zero. Add a sysctl to make them have the same mark as the packet they are replying to. This allows an administrator that wishes to do so to use mark-based routing, firewalling, etc. for these replies by marking the original packets inbound. Tested using user-mode linux: - ICMP/ICMPv6 echo replies and errors. - TCP RST packets (IPv4 and IPv6). Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Colitti Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: rename local_df to ignore_df

2014-05-12T18:03:41Z

As suggested by several people, rename local_df to ignore_df, since it means "ignore df bit if it is set". Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski Cc: Florian Westphal Cc: David S. Miller Cc: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: Cong Wang Acked-by: Maciej Żenczykowski Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: clean up snmp stats code

2014-05-07T20:06:05Z

commit 8f0ea0fe3a036a47767f9c80e (snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%) reduced snmp array size to 1, so technically it doesn't have to be an array any more. What's more, after the following commit: commit 933393f58fef9963eac61db8093689544e29a600 Date: Thu Dec 22 11:58:51 2011 -0600 percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of preemption and interrupt state. That has no material change for x86 and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations. However, arches that do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption. probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after almost 3 years, no one complains. So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init() and snmp_mib_free() as well.

ipv4: add a sock pointer to dst->output() path.

2014-04-15T17:47:15Z

In the dst->output() path for ipv4, the code assumes the skb it has to transmit is attached to an inet socket, specifically via ip_mc_output() : The sk_mc_loop() test triggers a WARN_ON() when the provider of the packet is an AF_PACKET socket. The dst->output() method gets an additional 'struct sock *sk' parameter. This needs a cascade of changes so that this parameter can be propagated from vxlan to final consumer.

ipv4: add a sock pointer to ip_queue_xmit()

2014-04-15T16:58:34Z

ip_queue_xmit() assumes the skb it has to transmit is attached to an inet socket. Commit 31c70d5956fc ("l2tp: keep original skb ownership") changed l2tp to not change skb ownership and thus broke this assumption. One fix is to add a new 'struct sock *sk' parameter to ip_queue_xmit(), so that we do not assume skb->sk points to the socket used by l2tp tunnel.
