2009-03-19SUNRPC: Ensure we close the socket on EPIPE errors too...Trond Myklebust
As long as one task is holding the socket lock, then calls to xprt_force_disconnect(xprt) will not succeed in shutting down the socket. In particular, this would mean that a server initiated shutdown will not succeed until the lock is relinquished. In order to avoid the deadlock, we should ensure that xs_tcp_send_request() closes the socket on EPIPE errors too. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-19SUNRPC: Add the equivalent of the linger and linger2 timeouts to RPC socketsTrond Myklebust
This fixes a regression against FreeBSD servers as reported by Tomas Kasparek. Apparently when using RPC over a TCP socket, the FreeBSD servers don't ever react to the client closing the socket, and so commit e06799f958bf7f9f8fae15f0c6f519953fb0257c (SUNRPC: Use shutdown() instead of close() when disconnecting a TCP socket) causes the setup to hang forever whenever the client attempts to close and then reconnect. We break the deadlock by adding a 'linger2' style timeout to the socket, after which, the client will abort the connection using a TCP 'RST'. The default timeout is set to 15 seconds. A subsequent patch will put it under user control by means of a systctl. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-11SUNRPC: Return EAGAIN instead of ENOTCONN when waking up xprt->pendingTrond Myklebust
While we should definitely return socket errors to the task that is currently trying to send data, there is no need to propagate the same error to all the other tasks on xprt->pending. Doing so actually slows down recovery, since it causes more than one tasks to attempt socket recovery. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-11SUNRPC: Handle ECONNREFUSED correctly in xprt_transmit()Trond Myklebust
If we get an ECONNREFUSED error, we currently go to sleep on the 'xprt->sending' wait queue. The problem is that no timeout is set there, and there is nothing else that will wake the task up later. We should deal with ECONNREFUSED in call_status, given that is where we also deal with -EHOSTDOWN, and friends. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-11SUNRPC: Avoid an unnecessary task reschedule on ENOTCONNTrond Myklebust
If the socket is unconnected, and xprt_transmit() returns ENOTCONN, we currently give up the lock on the transport channel. Doing so means that the lock automatically gets assigned to the next task in the xprt->sending queue, and so that task needs to be woken up to do the actual connect. The following patch aims to avoid that unnecessary task switch. Signed-off-by: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@netapp.com>

2009-03-11SUNRPC: Avoid spurious wake-up during UDP connect processingChuck Lever
To clear out old state, the UDP connect workers unconditionally invoke xs_close() before proceeding with a new connect. Nowadays this causes a spurious wake-up of the task waiting for the connect to complete. This is a little racey, but usually harmless. The waiting task immediately retries the connect via a call_bind/call_connect sequence, which usually finds the transport already in the connected state because the connect worker has finished in the background. To avoid a spurious wake-up, factor the xs_close() logic that resets the underlying socket into a helper, and have the UDP connect workers call that helper instead of xs_close().

2009-03-10SUNRPC: Tighten up the task locking rules in __rpc_execute()Trond Myklebust
We should probably not be testing any flags after we've cleared the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag, since rpc_make_runnable() is then free to assign the rpc_task to another workqueue, which may then destroy it. We can fix any races with rpc_make_runnable() by ensuring that we only clear the RPC_TASK_RUNNING flag while holding the rpc_wait_queue->lock that the task is supposed to be sleeping on (and then checking whether or not the task really is sleeping).

2009-03-03netlink: invert error code in netlink_set_err()Pablo Neira Ayuso
The callers of netlink_set_err() currently pass a negative value as parameter for the error code. However, sk->sk_err wants a positive error value. Without this patch, skb_recv_datagram() called by netlink_recvmsg() may return a positive value to report an error. Another choice to fix this is to change callers to pass a positive error value, but this seems a bit inconsistent and error prone to me. Indeed, the callers of netlink_set_err() assumed that the (usual) negative value for error codes was fine before this patch :). This patch also includes some documentation in docbook format for netlink_set_err() to avoid this sort of confusion. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-03-03netns: Remove net_aliveEric W. Biederman
It turns out that net_alive is unnecessary, and the original problem that led to it being added was simply that the icmp code thought it was a network device and wound up being unable to handle packets while there were still packets in the network namespace. Now that icmp and tcp have been fixed to properly register themselves this problem is no longer present and we have a stronger guarantee that packets will not arrive in a network namespace then that provided by net_alive in netif_receive_skb. So remove net_alive allowing packet reception run a little faster. Additionally document the strong reason why network namespace cleanup is safe so that if something happens again someone else will have a chance of figuring it out. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2009-03-03netns: Fix icmp shutdown.Eric W. Biederman
Recently I had a kernel panic in icmp_send during a network namespace cleanup. There were packets in the arp queue that failed to be sent and we attempted to generate an ICMP host unreachable message, but failed because icmp_sk_exit had already been called. The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their arp queues are flushed before we do attempt to shutdown subsystems so this error should have been impossible. It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead of register_pernet_subsys. Which resulted in icmp being shut down while we still had the possibility of packets in flight, making a nasty NULL pointer deference in interrupt context possible. Changing this to register_pernet_subsys fixes the problem in my testing. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Acked-by: Denis V.

2009-03-03netns: fix addrconf_ifdown kernel panicDaniel Lezcano
When a network namespace is destroyed the network interfaces are all unregistered, making addrconf_ifdown called by the netdevice notifier. In the other hand, the addrconf exit method does a loop on the network devices and does addrconf_ifdown on each of them. But the ordering of the netns subsystem is not right because it uses the register_pernet_device instead of register_pernet_subsys. If we handle the loopback as any network device, we can safely use register_pernet_subsys. But if we use register_pernet_subsys, the addrconf exit method will do exactly what was already done with the unregistering of the network devices. So in definitive, this code is pointless. I removed the netns addrconf exit method and moved the code to the addrconf cleanup function. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <dlezcano@fr.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-03-01netpoll: Add drop checks to all entry pointsHerbert Xu
The netpoll entry checks are required to ensure that we don't receive normal packets when invoked via netpoll. Unfortunately it only ever worked for the netif_receive_skb/netif_rx entry points. The VLAN (and subsequently GRO) entry point didn't have the check and therefore can trigger all sorts of weird problems. This patch adds the netpoll check to all entry points. I'm still uneasy with receiving at all under netpoll (which apparently is only used by the out-of-tree kdump code). The reason is it is perfectly legal to receive all data including headers into highmem if netpoll is off, but if you try to do that with netpoll on and someone gets a printk in an IRQ handler you're going to get a nice BUG_ON.

2009-02-24netfilter: xt_recent: fix proc-file addition/removal of IPv4 addressesJosef Drexler
Fix regression introduded by commit 079aa88 (netfilter: xt_recent: IPv6 support): From http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12753: Problem Description: An uninitialized buffer causes IPv4 addresses added manually (via the +IP command to the proc interface) to never match any packets. Similarly, the -IP command fails to remove IPv4 addresses. Details: In the function recent_entry_lookup, the xt_recent module does comparisons of the entire nf_inet_addr union value, both for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. For addresses initialized from actual packets the remaining 12 bytes not occupied by the IPv4 are zeroed so this works correctly. However when setting the nf_inet_addr addr variable in the recent_mt_proc_write function, only the IPv4 bytes are initialized and the remaining 12 bytes contain garbage. Hence addresses added in this way never match any packets, unless these uninitialized 12 bytes happened to be zero by coincidence. Similarly, addresses cannot consistently be removed using the proc interface due to mismatch of the garbage bytes (although it will sometimes work to remove an address that was added manually). Reading the /proc/net/xt_recent/ entries hides this problem because this only uses the first 4 bytes when displaying IPv4 addresses. Steps to reproduce: $ iptables -I INPUT -m recent --rcheck -j LOG $ echo +169.254.156.239 > /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT $ cat /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 0 last_seen: 119910 oldest_pkt: 1 119910 [At this point no packets from 169.254.156.239 are being logged.] $ iptables -I INPUT -s 169.254.156.239 -m recent --set $ cat /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 0 last_seen: 119910 oldest_pkt: 1 119910 src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 255 last_seen: 126184 oldest_pkt: 4 125434, 125684, 125934, 126184 [At this point, adding the address via an iptables rule, packets are being logged correctly.] $ echo -169.254.156.239 > /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT $ cat /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 0 last_seen: 119910 oldest_pkt: 1 119910 src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 255 last_seen: 126992 oldest_pkt: 10 125434, 125684, 125934, 126184, 126434, 126684, 126934, 126991, 126991, 126992 $ echo -169.254.156.239 > /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT $ cat /proc/net/xt_recent/DEFAULT src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 0 last_seen: 119910 oldest_pkt: 1 119910 src=169.254.156.239 ttl: 255 last_seen: 126992 oldest_pkt: 10 125434, 125684, 125934, 126184, 126434, 126684, 126934, 126991, 126991, 126992 [Removing the address via /proc interface failed evidently.] Possible solutions: - initialize the addr variable in recent_mt_proc_write - compare only 4 bytes for IPv4 addresses in recent_entry_lookup Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
