2009-07-11sit: fix regression: do not release skb->dst before xmitSascha Hlusiak
The sit module makes use of skb->dst in it's xmit function, so since 93f154b594fe47 ("net: release dst entry in dev_hard_start_xmit()") sit tunnels are broken, because the flag IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not unset. This patch unsets that flag for sit devices to fix this regression. Signed-off-by: Sascha Hlusiak <contact@saschahlusiak.de> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

After commit 2b85a34e911bf483c27cfdd124aeb1605145dc80 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx) we do not take any more references on sk->sk_refcnt on outgoing packets. I forgot to delete two __sock_put() from ip_push_pending_frames() and ip6_push_pending_frames().

2009-07-11net: sk_prot_alloc() should not blindly overwrite memoryEric Dumazet
Some sockets use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, and our RCU code correctness depends on sk->sk_nulls_node.next being always valid. A NULL value is not allowed as it might fault a lockless reader. Current sk_prot_alloc() implementation doesnt respect this hypothesis, calling kmem_cache_alloc() with __GFP_ZERO. Just call memset() around the forbidden field.

2009-07-09net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacksJiri Olsa
Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper to wrap the memory barrier. Without the memory barrier, following race can happen. The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches. CPU1 CPU2 sys_select receive packet ... ... __add_wait_queue update tp->rcv_nxt ... ... tp->rcv_nxt check sock_def_readable ... { schedule ... if (sk->sk_sleep && waitqueue_active(sk->sk_sleep)) wake_up_interruptible(sk->sk_sleep) ... } If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and rcv_nxt are opposit to each other. Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask. In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1. The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side. The CPU1 will then endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the socket. Calls to poll_wait in following modules were ommited: net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c net/irda/af_irda.c net/irda/irnet/irnet_ppp.c net/mac80211/rc80211_pid_debugfs.c net/phonet/socket.c net/rds/af_rds.c net/rfkill/core.c net/sunrpc/cache.c net/sunrpc/rpc_pipe.c net/tipc/socket.c Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-07-08netpoll: Fix carrier detection for drivers that are using phylibAnton Vorontsov
Using early netconsole and gianfar driver this error pops up: netconsole: timeout waiting for carrier It appears that net/core/netpoll.c:netpoll_setup() is using cond_resched() in a loop waiting for a carrier. The thing is that cond_resched() is a no-op when system_state != SYSTEM_RUNNING, and so drivers/net/phy/phy.c's state_queue is never scheduled, therefore link detection doesn't work. I belive that the main problem is in cond_resched()[1], but despite how the cond_resched() story ends, it might be a good idea to call msleep(1) instead of cond_resched(), as suggested by Andrew Morton.

It should be also mentioned that because of non-atomic changes during resizing/rebalancing the current lookup algorithm can miss valid leaves so it's additional argument to shorten these activities even at a cost of a minimally longer searching. This patch restores values before the patch "[IPV4]: fib_trie root node settings", commit: 965ffea43d4ebe8cd7b9fee78d651268dd7d23c5 from v2.6.22.

So, until memory handling is improved or added parameters for changing this individually, this patch resets to safer defaults.

2009-07-03IPv6: preferred lifetime of address not getting updatedBrian Haley
There's a bug in addrconf_prefix_rcv() where it won't update the preferred lifetime of an IPv6 address if the current valid lifetime of the address is less than 2 hours (the minimum value in the RA). For example, If I send a router advertisement with a prefix that has valid lifetime = preferred lifetime = 2 hours we'll build this address: 3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000 inet6 2001:1890:1109:a20:217:8ff:fe7d:4718/64 scope global dynamic valid_lft 7175sec preferred_lft 7175sec If I then send the same prefix with valid lifetime = preferred lifetime = 0 it will be ignored since the minimum valid lifetime is 2 hours: 3: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000 inet6 2001:1890:1109:a20:217:8ff:fe7d:4718/64 scope global dynamic valid_lft 7161sec preferred_lft 7161sec But according to RFC 4862 we should always reset the preferred lifetime even if the valid lifetime is invalid, which would cause the address to immediately get deprecated. So with this patch we'd see this: 5: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qlen 1000 inet6 2001:1890:1109:a20:21f:29ff:fe5a:ef04/64 scope global deprecated dynamic valid_lft 7163sec preferred_lft 0sec The comment winds-up being 5x the size of the code to fix the problem. Update the preferred lifetime of IPv6 addresses derived from a prefix info option in a router advertisement even if the valid lifetime in the option is invalid, as specified in RFC 4862 Section 5.5.3e.

This reverts commit 73ce7b01b4496a5fbf9caf63033c874be692333f. After discovering that we don't listen to gratuitious arps in 2.6.30 I tracked the failure down to this commit. The patch makes absolutely no sense. RFC2131 RFC3927 and RFC5227. are all in agreement that an arp request with sip == 0 should be used for the probe (to prevent learning) and an arp request with sip == tip should be used for the gratitous announcement that people can learn from.

2009-06-29tcp: Do not tack on TSO data to non-TSO packetHerbert Xu
If a socket starts out on a non-TSO route, and then switches to a TSO route, then we will tack on data to the tail of the tx queue even if it started out life as non-TSO. This is suboptimal because all of it will then be copied and checksummed unnecessarily. This patch fixes this by ensuring that skb->ip_summed is set to CHECKSUM_PARTIAL before appending extra data beyond the MSS.

When NAT helpers change the TCP packet size, the highest seen sequence number needs to be corrected. This is currently only done upwards, when the packet size is reduced the sequence number is unchanged. This causes TCP conntrack to falsely detect unacknowledged data and decrease the timeout.

When NAPI is disabled while we're in net_rx_action, we end up calling __napi_complete without flushing GRO packets. This is a bug as it would cause the GRO packets to linger, of course it also literally BUGs to catch error like this :) This patch changes it to napi_complete, with the obligatory IRQ reenabling. This should be safe because we've only just disabled IRQs and it does not materially affect the test conditions in between.

RCU barriers, rcu_barrier(), is inserted two places. In nf_conntrack_expect.c nf_conntrack_expect_fini() before the kmem_cache_destroy(). Firstly to make sure the callback to the nf_ct_expect_free_rcu() code is still around. Secondly because I'm unsure about the consequence of having in flight nf_ct_expect_free_rcu/kmem_cache_free() calls while doing a kmem_cache_destroy() slab destroy. And in nf_conntrack_extend.c nf_ct_extend_unregister(), inorder to wait for completion of callbacks to __nf_ct_ext_free_rcu(), which is invoked by __nf_ct_ext_add(). It might be more efficient to call rcu_barrier() in nf_conntrack_core.c nf_conntrack_cleanup_net(), but thats make it more difficult to read the code (as the callback code in located in nf_conntrack_extend.c).

2009-06-23ipv4 routing: Ensure that route cache entries are usable and reclaimable ↵Neil Horman
with caching is off When route caching is disabled (rt_caching returns false), We still use route cache entries that are created and passed into rt_intern_hash once. These routes need to be made usable for the one call path that holds a reference to them, and they need to be reclaimed when they're finished with their use. To be made usable, they need to be associated with a neighbor table entry (which they currently are not), otherwise iproute_finish2 just discards the packet, since we don't know which L2 peer to send the packet to. To do this binding, we need to follow the path a bit higher up in rt_intern_hash, which calls arp_bind_neighbour, but not assign the route entry to the hash table. Currently, if caching is off, we simply assign the route to the rp pointer and are reutrn success. This patch associates us with a neighbor entry first. Secondly, we need to make sure that any single use routes like this are known to the garbage collector when caching is off. If caching is off, and we try to hash in a route, it will leak when its refcount reaches zero. To avoid this, this patch calls rt_free on the route cache entry passed into rt_intern_hash. This places us on the gc list for the route cache garbage collector, so that when its refcount reaches zero, it will be reclaimed (Thanks to Alexey for this suggestion). I've tested this on a local system here, and with these patches in place, I'm able to maintain routed connectivity to remote systems, even if I set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/rt_cache_rebuild_count to -1, which forces rt_caching to return false.

2009-06-23net: Move rx skb_orphan call to where neededHerbert Xu
In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be able to receive packets with destructors set. To be on the safe side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets destructors properly. Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able to pass skb->sk through the rx path without getting clobbered. So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan call to where it's actually needed. In particular, I've added it to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb->destructor call. This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.
