netfilter: nf_queue: add NFQA_SKB_CSUM_NOTVERIFIED info flag

The common case is that TCP/IP checksums have already been
verified, e.g. by hardware (rx checksum offload), or conntrack.

Userspace can use this flag to determine when the checksum
has not been validated yet.

If the flag is set, this doesn't necessarily mean that the packet has
an invalid checksum, e.g. if NIC doesn't support rx checksum.

Userspace that sucessfully enabled NFQA_CFG_F_GSO queue feature flag can

However, it seems that tunnel devices do trigger PMTU events in certain

skb_dst(skb)->ops->update_pmtu to propage mtu information from the
outer flows. These can cause the inner flow mtu to be decreased. If
next hop exceptions are not consulted for pmtu, IP fragmentation will
not be done properly for these routes.

It also seems that we really need to have the PMTU information always
for netfilter TCPMSS clamp-to-pmtu feature to work properly.

This was spotted by trinity:

Fix it by:

1) introducing a new netlink_skb_clone function that is used in nl_fib_input,
   that sets our special skb->destructor in the cloned skb. Moreover, handle
   the release of the large cloned skb head area in the destructor path.

2) not allowing large skbuffs in the netlink broadcast path. I cannot find
   any reasonable use of the large data transfer using netlink in that path,
   moreover this helps to skip extra skb_clone handling.

I found two more netlink clients that are cloning the skbs, but they are
not in the sendmsg path. Therefore, the sole client cloning that I found
seems to be the fib frontend.

10 years agobonding: add an option to fail when any of arp_ip_target is inaccessible
Veaceslav Falico [Mon, 24 Jun 2013 09:49:34 +0000 (11:49 +0200)]
bonding: add an option to fail when any of arp_ip_target is inaccessible

Currently, we fail only when all of the ips in arp_ip_target are gone.
However, in some situations we might need to fail if even one host from
arp_ip_target becomes unavailable.

All situations, obviously, rely on the idea that we need *completely*
functional network, with all interfaces/addresses working correctly.

One real world example might be:
vlans on top on bond (hybrid port). If bond and vlans have ips assigned
and we have their peers monitored via arp_ip_target - in case of switch
misconfiguration (trunk/access port), slave driver malfunction or
tagged/untagged traffic dropped on the way - we will be able to switch
to another slave.

Though any other configuration needs that if we need to have access to all
arp_ip_targets.

This patch adds this possibility by adding a new parameter -
arp_all_targets (both as a module parameter and as a sysfs knob). It can be
set to:

0 or any (the default) - which works exactly as it's working now -
the slave is up if any of the arp_ip_targets are up.

1 or all - the slave is up if all of the arp_ip_targets are up.

This parameter can be changed on the fly (via sysfs), and requires the mode
to be active-backup and arp_validate to be enabled (it obeys the
arp_validate config on which slaves to validate).

Internally it's done through:

1) Add target_last_arp_rx[BOND_MAX_ARP_TARGETS] array to slave struct. It's
   an array of jiffies, meaning that slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] is the
   last time we've received arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] on this
   slave.

2) If we successfully validate an arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] in
   bond_validate_arp() - update the slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] with the
   current jiffies value.

3) When getting slave's last_rx via slave_last_rx(), we return the oldest
   time when we've received an arp from any address in
   bond->params.arp_targets[].

If the value of arp_all_targets == 0 - we still work the same way as
before.

Also, update the documentation to reflect the new parameter.

v3->v4:
Kill the forgotten rtnl_unlock(), rephrase the documentation part to be
more clear, don't fail setting arp_all_targets if arp_validate is not set -
it has no effect anyway but can be easier to set up. Also, print a warning
if the last arp_ip_target is removed while the arp_interval is on, but not
the arp_validate.

v2->v3:
Use _bh spinlock, remove useless rtnl_lock() and use jiffies for new
arp_ip_target last arp, instead of slave_last_rx(). On bond_enslave(),
use the same initialization value for target_last_arp_rx[] as is used
for the default last_arp_rx, to avoid useless interface flaps.

Also, instead of failing to remove the last arp_ip_target just print a
warning - otherwise it might break existing scripts.

v1->v2:
Correctly handle adding/removing hosts in arp_ip_target - we need to
shift/initialize all slave's target_last_arp_rx. Also, don't fail module
loading on arp_all_targets misconfiguration, just disable it, and some
minor style fixes.

bonding: don't trust arp requests unless active slave really works

Currently, if we receive any arp packet on a backup slave in active-backup
mode and arp_validate enabled, we suppose that it's an arp request, swap
source/target ip and try to validate it. This optimization gives us
virtually no downtime in the most common situation (active and backup
slaves are in the same broadcast domain and the active slave failed).

However, if we can't reach the arp_ip_target(s), we end up in an endless
loop of reselecting slaves, because we receive our arp requests, sent by
the active slave, and think that backup slaves are up, thus selecting them
as active and, again, sending arp requests, which fool our backup slaves.

Fix this by not validating the swapped arp packets if the current active
slave didn't receive any arp reply after it was selected as active. This
way we will only accept arp requests if we know that the current active
slave can actually reach arp_ip_target.

Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll.
updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt

Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call
sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value
to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found.

When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level
sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something.

Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can
return the result to the user ASAP.

10 years agotcp: remove invalid __rcu annotation

tcp: remove invalid __rcu annotation

struct tcp_fastopen_context has a field named tfm, which is a pointer
to a crypto_cipher structure.

It currently has a __rcu annotation, which is not needed at all.

tcp_fastopen_ctx is the pointer fetched by rcu_dereference(), but once
we have a pointer to current tcp_fastopen_context, we do not use/need
rcu_dereference() to access tfm.

packet: nlmon: virtual netlink monitoring device for packet sockets

Currently, there is no good possibility to debug netlink traffic that
is being exchanged between kernel and user space. Therefore, this patch
implements a netlink virtual device, so that netlink messages will be
made visible to PF_PACKET sockets. Once there was an approach with a
similar idea [1], but it got forgotten somehow.

I think it makes most sense to accept the "overhead" of an extra netlink
net device over implementing the same functionality from PF_PACKET
sockets once again into netlink sockets. We have BPF filters that can
already be easily applied which even have netlink extensions, we have
RX_RING zero-copy between kernel- and user space that can be reused,
and much more features. So instead of re-implementing all of this, we
simply pass the skb to a given PF_PACKET socket for further analysis.

Another nice benefit that comes from that is that no code needs to be
changed in user space packet analyzers (maybe adding a dissector, but
not more), thus out of the box, we can already capture pcap files of
netlink traffic to debug/troubleshoot netlink problems.

Also thanks goes to Thomas Graf, Flavio Leitner, Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

Merge branch 'for-davem' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-next

John W. Linville says:

====================
I would guess that this is the last big wireless pull request before
the 3.11 merge window...

Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"I have a number of mesh fixes and improvements from Colleen, Jacob,
Ashok and Thomas, powersave fixes in mac80211 from Alex, improved
management-TX from Antonio, and a few various things, including locking
fixes, from others and myself. Overall though, nothing really stands
out."

As for the iwlwifi bits, Johannes says:

"Emmanuel contributed two AP mode fixes, removed an unused field, fixed a
comment and added a warning for something that shouldn't happen in
practice, and I removed the declaration of a function that doesn't even
exist and cleaned up a small include."

"This time I have a number of cleanups, a small fix from Emmanuel and two
performance improvements that combined reduce our driver's CPU
utilisation as much as 75% in high TX-throughput scenarios."

"These two patches fix two issues with using rfkill randomly during
traffic, which would then cause our driver to stop working and not be
able to recover at all."

Regarding the ath6kl bits, Kalle says:

"Here are few simple patches for ath6kl. We have a suspend crash fix for
USB from Shafi, use of mac_pton(), a compiler warning fix and a fix for
module initialisation error path."

Kalle also sends the biggest single item of note, the new ath10k
driver for Qualcomm Atheros 802.11ac CQA98xx devices.

Included is an NFC pull, of which Samuel says:

"These are the pending NFC patches for the 3.11 merge window.

It contains the pending fixes that were on nfc-fixes (nfc-fixes-3.10-2),
along with a few more for the pn544 and pn533 drivers, the LLCP
disconnection path and an LLCP memory leak.

Highlights for this one are:

- An initial secure element API. NFC chipsets can carry an embedded
  secure element or get access to the SIM one. In both cases they
  control the secure elements and this API provides a way to discover,
  enable and disable the available SEs. It also exports that to
  userspace in order for SE focused middleware to actually do something
  with them (e.g. payments).

- NCI over SPI support. SPI is the most complex NCI specified transport
  layer and we now have support for it in the kernel. The next step will
  be to implement drivers for NCI chipsets using this transport like
  e.g. bcm2079x.

- NFC p2p hardware simulation driver. We now have an nfcsim driver that
  is mostly a loopback device between 2 NFC interfaces. It also
  implements the rest of the NFC core API like polling and target
  detection. This driver, with neard running on top of it, allows us to
  completely test the LLCP, SNEP and Handover implementation without
  physical hardware.

- A Firmware update netlink API. Most (All ?) HCI chipsets have a
  special firmware update mode where applications can push a new
  firmware that will be flashed. We now have a netlink API for providing
  that mode to e.g. nfctool."

On top of all that, there are a variety of updates to brcmfmac,
iwlegacy, rtlwifi, wil6210, and the TI wl12xx drivers.  As usual,
the bcma and ssb busses get a little love as well, as do a handful
of others here and there.
