9ffc66941d This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
 possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
 (due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
 thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
 
 At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
 how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.

0766f788eb latent_entropy: Mark functions with __latent_entropy
The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables.  If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents.  The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.

These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

2d75807383 mm: memcontrol: consolidate cgroup socket tracking
The cgroup core and the memory controller need to track socket ownership
for different purposes, but the tracking sites being entirely different
is kind of ugly.

Be a better citizen and rename the memory controller callbacks to match
the cgroup core callbacks, then move them to the same place.

14986a34e1 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes is a number of smaller things that have been
  overlooked in other development cycles focused on more fundamental
  change. The devpts changes are small things that were a distraction
  until we managed to kill off DEVPTS_MULTPLE_INSTANCES. There is an
  trivial regression fix to autofs for the unprivileged mount changes
  that went in last cycle. A pair of ioctls has been added by Andrey
  Vagin making it is possible to discover the relationships between
  namespaces when referring to them through file descriptors.

  The big user visible change is starting to add simple resource limits
  to catch programs that misbehave. With namespaces in general and user
  namespaces in particular allowing users to use more kinds of
  resources, it has become important to have something to limit errant
  programs. Because the purpose of these limits is to catch errant
  programs the code needs to be inexpensive to use as it always on, and
  the default limits need to be high enough that well behaved programs
  on well behaved systems don't encounter them.

  To this end, after some review I have implemented per user per user
  namespace limits, and use them to limit the number of namespaces. The
  limits being per user mean that one user can not exhause the limits of
  another user. The limits being per user namespace allow contexts where
  the limit is 0 and security conscious folks can remove from their
  threat anlysis the code used to manage namespaces (as they have
  historically done as it root only). At the same time the limits being
  per user namespace allow other parts of the system to use namespaces.

  Namespaces are increasingly being used in application sand boxing
  scenarios so an all or nothing disable for the entire system for the
  security conscious folks makes increasing use of these sandboxes
  impossible.

  There is also added a limit on the maximum number of mounts present in
  a single mount namespace. It is nontrivial to guess what a reasonable
  system wide limit on the number of mount structure in the kernel would
  be, especially as it various based on how a system is using
  containers. A limit on the number of mounts in a mount namespace
  however is much easier to understand and set. In most cases in
  practice only about 1000 mounts are used. Given that some autofs
  scenarious have the potential to be 30,000 to 50,000 mounts I have set
  the default limit for the number of mounts at 100,000 which is well
  above every known set of users but low enough that the mount hash
  tables don't degrade unreaonsably.

  These limits are a start. I expect this estabilishes a pattern that
  other limits for resources that namespaces use will follow. There has
  been interest in making inotify event limits per user per user
  namespace as well as interest expressed in making details about what
  is going on in the kernel more visible"

93409033ae net: Add netdev all_adj_list refcnt propagation to fix panic
This is a respin of a patch to fix a relatively easily reproducible kernel
panic related to the all_adj_list handling for netdevs in recent kernels.

The following sequence of commands will reproduce the issue:

ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100
ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200
ip link add name testbr type bridge
ip link set eth0.100 master testbr
ip link set eth0.200 master testbr
ip link add link testbr mac0 type macvlan
ip link delete dev testbr

This creates an upper/lower tree of (excuse the poor ASCII art):

            /---eth0.100-eth0
mac0-testbr-
            \---eth0.200-eth0

When testbr is deleted, the all_adj_lists are walked, and eth0 is deleted twice from
the mac0 list. Unfortunately, during setup in __netdev_upper_dev_link, only one
reference to eth0 is added, so this results in a panic.

This change adds reference count propagation so things are handled properly.

Matthias Schiffer reported a similar crash in batman-adv:

https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon/issues/680
https://www.open-mesh.org/issues/247

which this patch also seems to resolve.

b6a7920848 net: skbuff: Limit skb_vlan_pop/push() to expect skb->data at mac header
skb_vlan_pop/push were too generic, trying to support the cases where
skb->data is at mac header, and cases where skb->data is arbitrarily
elsewhere.

Supporting an arbitrary skb->data was complex and bogus:
 - It failed to unwind skb->data to its original location post actual
   pop/push.
   (Also, semantic is not well defined for unwinding: If data was into
    the eth header, need to use same offset from start; But if data was
    at network header or beyond, need to adjust the original offset
    according to the push/pull)
 - It mangled the rcsum post actual push/pop, without taking into account
   that the eth bytes might already have been pulled out of the csum.

Most callers (ovs, bpf) already had their skb->data at mac_header upon
invoking skb_vlan_pop/push.
Last caller that failed to do so (act_vlan) has been recently fixed.

Therefore, to simplify things, no longer support arbitrary skb->data
inputs for skb_vlan_pop/push().

skb->data is expected to be exactly at mac_header; WARN otherwise.

fa34cd94fb net: rtnl: avoid uninitialized data in IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST handling
With the newly added support for IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST netlink messages,
we get a warning about potential uninitialized variable use in
the parsing of the user input when enabling the -Wmaybe-uninitialized
warning:

net/core/rtnetlink.c: In function 'do_setvfinfo':
net/core/rtnetlink.c:1756:9: error: 'ivvl$' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

I have not been able to prove whether it is possible to arrive in
this code with an empty IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST block, but if we do,
then ndo_set_vf_vlan gets called with uninitialized arguments.

This adds an explicit check for an empty list, making it obvious
to the reader and the compiler that this cannot happen.

63d75463c9 net: pktgen: fix pkt_size
The commit 879c7220e8 ("net: pktgen: Observe needed_headroom
of the device") increased the 'pkt_overhead' field value by
LL_RESERVED_SPACE.
As a side effect the generated packet size, computed as:

	/* Eth + IPh + UDPh + mpls */
	datalen = pkt_dev->cur_pkt_size - 14 - 20 - 8 -
		  pkt_dev->pkt_overhead;

is decreased by the same value.
The above changed slightly the behavior of existing pktgen users,
and made the procfs interface somewhat inconsistent.
Fix it by restoring the previous pkt_overhead value and using
LL_RESERVED_SPACE as extralen in skb allocation.
Also, change pktgen_alloc_skb() to only partially reserve
the headroom to allow the caller to prefetch from ll header
start.

79aab093a0 net: Update API for VF vlan protocol 802.1ad support
Introduce new rtnl UAPI that exposes a list of vlans per VF, giving
the ability for user-space application to specify it for the VF, as an
option to support 802.1ad.
We adjusted IP Link tool to support this option.

For future use cases, the new UAPI supports multiple vlans. For now we
limit the list size to a single vlan in kernel.
Add IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST in addition to IFLA_VF_VLAN to keep backward
compatibility with older versions of IP Link tool.

Add a vlan protocol parameter to the ndo_set_vf_vlan callback.
We kept 802.1Q as the drivers' default vlan protocol.
Suitable ip link tool command examples:
  Set vf vlan protocol 802.1ad:
    ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1ad
  Set vf to VST (802.1Q) mode:
    ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1Q
  Or by omitting the new parameter
    ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100

7872559664 Merge branch 'nsfs-ioctls' into HEAD
From: Andrey Vagin <avagin@openvz.org>

Each namespace has an owning user namespace and now there is not way
to discover these relationships.

Pid and user namepaces are hierarchical. There is no way to discover
parent-child relationships too.

Why we may want to know relationships between namespaces?

One use would be visualization, in order to understand the running
system.  Another would be to answer the question: what capability does
process X have to perform operations on a resource governed by namespace
Y?

One more use-case (which usually called abnormal) is checkpoint/restart.
In CRIU we are going to dump and restore nested namespaces.

There [1] was a discussion about which interface to choose to determing
relationships between namespaces.

Eric suggested to add two ioctl-s [2]:
> Grumble, Grumble.  I think this may actually a case for creating ioctls
> for these two cases.  Now that random nsfs file descriptors are bind
> mountable the original reason for using proc files is not as pressing.
>
> One ioctl for the user namespace that owns a file descriptor.
> One ioctl for the parent namespace of a namespace file descriptor.

Here is an implementaions of these ioctl-s.

$ man man7/namespaces.7
...
Since  Linux  4.X,  the  following  ioctl(2)  calls are supported for
namespace file descriptors.  The correct syntax is:

      fd = ioctl(ns_fd, ioctl_type);

where ioctl_type is one of the following:

NS_GET_USERNS
      Returns a file descriptor that refers to an owning user names‐
      pace.

NS_GET_PARENT
      Returns  a  file descriptor that refers to a parent namespace.
      This ioctl(2) can be used for pid  and  user  namespaces.  For
      user namespaces, NS_GET_PARENT and NS_GET_USERNS have the same
      meaning.

636c262808 net: skbuff: Remove errornous length validation in skb_vlan_pop()
In 93515d53b1
  "net: move vlan pop/push functions into common code"
skb_vlan_pop was moved from its private location in openvswitch to
skbuff common code.

In case skb has non hw-accel vlan tag, the original 'pop_vlan()' assured
that skb->len is sufficient (if skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN then pop was
considered a no-op).

This validation was moved as is into the new common 'skb_vlan_pop'.

Alas, in its original location (openvswitch), there was a guarantee that
'data' points to the mac_header, therefore the 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN'
condition made sense.
However there's no such guarantee in the generic 'skb_vlan_pop'.

For short packets received in rx path going through 'skb_vlan_pop',
this causes 'skb_vlan_pop' to fail pop-ing a valid vlan hdr (in the non
hw-accel case) or to fail moving next tag into hw-accel tag.

Remove the 'skb->len < VLAN_ETH_HLEN' condition entirely:
It is superfluous since inner '__skb_vlan_pop' already verifies there
are VLAN_ETH_HLEN writable bytes at the mac_header.

Note this presents a slight change to skb_vlan_pop() users:
In case total length is smaller than VLAN_ETH_HLEN, skb_vlan_pop() now
returns an error, as opposed to previous "no-op" behavior.
Existing callers (e.g. tc act vlan, ovs) usually drop the packet if
'skb_vlan_pop' fails.

36bbef52c7 bpf: direct packet write and access for helpers for clsact progs
This work implements direct packet access for helpers and direct packet
write in a similar fashion as already available for XDP types via commits
4acf6c0b84 ("bpf: enable direct packet data write for xdp progs") and
6841de8b0d ("bpf: allow helpers access the packet directly"), and as a
complementary feature to the already available direct packet read for tc
(cls/act) programs.

For enabling this, we need to introduce two helpers, bpf_skb_pull_data()
and bpf_csum_update(). The first is generally needed for both, read and
write, because they would otherwise only be limited to the current linear
skb head. Usually, when the data_end test fails, programs just bail out,
or, in the direct read case, use bpf_skb_load_bytes() as an alternative
to overcome this limitation. If such data sits in non-linear parts, we
can just pull them in once with the new helper, retest and eventually
access them.

At the same time, this also makes sure the skb is uncloned, which is, of
course, a necessary condition for direct write. As this needs to be an
invariant for the write part only, the verifier detects writes and adds
a prologue that is calling bpf_skb_pull_data() to effectively unclone the
skb from the very beginning in case it is indeed cloned. The heuristic
makes use of a similar trick that was done in 233577a220 ("net: filter:
constify detection of pkt_type_offset"). This comes at zero cost for other
programs that do not use the direct write feature. Should a program use
this feature only sparsely and has read access for the most parts with,
for example, drop return codes, then such write action can be delegated
to a tail called program for mitigating this cost of potential uncloning
to a late point in time where it would have been paid similarly with the
bpf_skb_store_bytes() as well. Advantage of direct write is that the
writes are inlined whereas the helper cannot make any length assumptions
and thus needs to generate a call to memcpy() also for small sizes, as well
as cost of helper call itself with sanity checks are avoided. Plus, when
direct read is already used, we don't need to cache or perform rechecks
on the data boundaries (due to verifier invalidating previous checks for
helpers that change skb->data), so more complex programs using rewrites
can benefit from switching to direct read plus write.

For direct packet access to helpers, we save the otherwise needed copy into
a temp struct sitting on stack memory when use-case allows. Both facilities
are enabled via may_access_direct_pkt_data() in verifier. For now, we limit
this to map helpers and csum_diff, and can successively enable other helpers
where we find it makes sense. Helpers that definitely cannot be allowed for
this are those part of bpf_helper_changes_skb_data() since they can change
underlying data, and those that write into memory as this could happen for
packet typed args when still cloned. bpf_csum_update() helper accommodates
for the fact that we need to fixup checksum_complete when using direct write
instead of bpf_skb_store_bytes(), meaning the programs can use available
helpers like bpf_csum_diff(), and implement csum_add(), csum_sub(),
csum_block_add(), csum_block_sub() equivalents in eBPF together with the
new helper. A usage example will be provided for iproute2's examples/bpf/
directory.

f3694e0012 bpf: add BPF_CALL_x macros for declaring helpers
This work adds BPF_CALL_<n>() macros and converts all the eBPF helper functions
to use them, in a similar fashion like we do with SYSCALL_DEFINE<n>() macros
that are used today. Motivation for this is to hide all the register handling
and all necessary casts from the user, so that it is done automatically in the
background when adding a BPF_CALL_<n>() call.

This makes current helpers easier to review, eases to write future helpers,
avoids getting the casting mess wrong, and allows for extending all helpers at
once (f.e. build time checks, etc). It also helps detecting more easily in
code reviews that unused registers are not instrumented in the code by accident,
breaking compatibility with existing programs.

BPF_CALL_<n>() internals are quite similar to SYSCALL_DEFINE<n>() ones with some
fundamental differences, for example, for generating the actual helper function
that carries all u64 regs, we need to fill unused regs, so that we always end up
with 5 u64 regs as an argument.

I reviewed several 0-5 generated BPF_CALL_<n>() variants of the .i results and
they look all as expected. No sparse issue spotted. We let this also sit for a
few days with Fengguang's kbuild test robot, and there were no issues seen. On
s390, it barked on the "uses dynamic stack allocation" notice, which is an old
one from bpf_perf_event_output{,_tp}() reappearing here due to the conversion
to the call wrapper, just telling that the perf raw record/frag sits on stack
(gcc with s390's -mwarn-dynamicstack), but that's all. Did various runtime tests
and they were fine as well. All eBPF helpers are now converted to use these
macros, getting rid of a good chunk of all the raw castings.

9f5afeae51 tcp: use an RB tree for ooo receive queue
Over the years, TCP BDP has increased by several orders of magnitude,
and some people are considering to reach the 2 Gbytes limit.

Even with current window scale limit of 14, ~1 Gbytes maps to ~740,000
MSS.

In presence of packet losses (or reorders), TCP stores incoming packets
into an out of order queue, and number of skbs sitting there waiting for
the missing packets to be received can be in the 10^5 range.

Most packets are appended to the tail of this queue, and when
packets can finally be transferred to receive queue, we scan the queue
from its head.

However, in presence of heavy losses, we might have to find an arbitrary
point in this queue, involving a linear scan for every incoming packet,
throwing away cpu caches.

This patch converts it to a RB tree, to get bounded latencies.

Yaogong wrote a preliminary patch about 2 years ago.
Eric did the rebase, added ofo_last_skb cache, polishing and tests.

Tested with network dropping between 1 and 10 % packets, with good
success (about 30 % increase of throughput in stress tests)

Next step would be to also use an RB tree for the write queue at sender
side ;)

Bonding does lots of things before checking if the device enslaved is
busy or not.

In this case when the notifier call-chain sends notifications, the
bond_netdev_event() assumes that the rx_handler /rx_handler_data is
registered while the bond_enslave() hasn't progressed far enough to
register rx_handler for the new slave.

This patch adds a rx_handler check that can be performed right at the

d297653dd6 rtnetlink: fdb dump: optimize by saving last interface markers
fdb dumps spanning multiple skb's currently restart from the first
interface again for every skb. This results in unnecessary
iterations on the already visited interfaces and their fdb
entries. In large scale setups, we have seen this to slow
down fdb dumps considerably. On a system with 30k macs we
see fdb dumps spanning across more than 300 skbs.

To fix the problem, this patch replaces the existing single fdb
marker with three markers: netdev hash entries, netdevs and fdb
index to continue where we left off instead of restarting from the
first netdev. This is consistent with link dumps.

In the process of fixing the performance issue, this patch also
re-implements fix done by
commit 472681d57a ("net: ndo_fdb_dump should report -EMSGSIZE to rtnl_fdb_dump")
(with an internal fix from Wilson Kok) in the following ways:
- change ndo_fdb_dump handlers to return error code instead
of the last fdb index
- use cb->args strictly for dump frag markers and not error codes.
This is consistent with other dump functions.

Below results were taken on a system with 1000 netdevs
and 35085 fdb entries:
before patch:
$time bridge fdb show | wc -l
15065

real    1m11.791s
user    0m0.070s

(existing code does not return all macs)

14972cbd34 net: lwtunnel: Handle fragmentation
Today mpls iptunnel lwtunnel_output redirect expects the tunnel
output function to handle fragmentation. This is ok but can be
avoided if we did not do the mpls output redirect too early.
ie we could wait until ip fragmentation is done and then call
mpls output for each ip fragment.

To make this work we will need,
1) the lwtunnel state to carry encap headroom
2) and do the redirect to the encap output handler on the ip fragment
(essentially do the output redirect after fragmentation)

This patch adds tunnel headroom in lwtstate to make sure we
account for tunnel data in mtu calculations during fragmentation
and adds new xmit redirect handler to redirect to lwtunnel xmit func
after ip fragmentation.

This includes IPV6 and some mtu fixes and testing from David Ahern.

switchdev_port_fwd_mark_set() is used to set the 'offload_fwd_mark' of

It works by assigning a unique identifier (the ifindex of the first

packets from being flooded twice by the same switch, but will flood
packets through bridge ports belonging to a different switch.

This method is problematic when stacked devices are taken into account,
such as VLANs. In such cases, a physical port netdev can have upper
devices being members in two different bridges, thus requiring two
different 'offload_fwd_mark's to be configured on the port netdev, which
is impossible.

The main problem is that packet and netdev marking is performed at the
physical netdev level, whereas flooding occurs between bridge ports,
which are not necessarily port netdevs.

Instead, packet and netdev marking should really be done in the bridge
driver with the switch driver only telling it which packets it already
forwarded. The bridge driver will mark such packets using the mark
assigned to the ingress bridge port and will prevent the packet from
being forwarded through any bridge port sharing the same mark (i.e.
having the same parent ID).

Remove the current switchdev 'offload_fwd_mark' implementation and
instead implement the proposed method. In addition, make rocker - the
sole user of the mark - use the proposed method.

145dd5f9c8 net: flush the softnet backlog in process context
Currently in process_backlog(), the process_queue dequeuing is
performed with local IRQ disabled, to protect against
flush_backlog(), which runs in hard IRQ context.

This patch moves the flush operation to a work queue and runs the
callback with bottom half disabled to protect the process_queue
against dequeuing.
Since process_queue is now always manipulated in bottom half context,
the irq disable/enable pair around the dequeue operation are removed.

To keep the flush time as low as possible, the flush
works are scheduled on all online cpu simultaneously, using the
high priority work-queue and statically allocated, per cpu,
work structs.

Overall this change increases the time required to destroy a device
to improve slightly the packets reinjection performances.
