David S. Miller f8126f1d51 ipv4: Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway.
In order to allow prefixed routes, we have to adjust how rt_gateway
is set and interpreted.

The new interpretation is:

1) rt_gateway == 0, destination is on-link, nexthop is iph->daddr

2) rt_gateway != 0, destination requires a nexthop gateway

Abstract the fetching of the proper nexthop value using a new
inline helper, rt_nexthop(), as suggested by Joe Perches.

David S. Miller 89aef8921b ipv4: Delete routing cache.
The ipv4 routing cache is non-deterministic, performance wise, and is
subject to reasonably easy to launch denial of service attacks.

The routing cache works great for well behaved traffic, and the world
was a much friendlier place when the tradeoffs that led to the routing
cache's design were considered.

What it boils down to is that the performance of the routing cache is
a product of the traffic patterns seen by a system rather than being a
product of the contents of the routing tables.  The former of which is
controllable by external entitites.

Even for "well behaved" legitimate traffic, high volume sites can see
hit rates in the routing cache of only ~%10.

Mikulas Patocka b09e786bd1 tun: fix a crash bug and a memory leak
This patch fixes a crash
tun_chr_close -> netdev_run_todo -> tun_free_netdev -> sk_release_kernel ->
sock_release -> iput(SOCK_INODE(sock))
introduced by commit 1ab5ecb90c

The problem is that this socket is embedded in struct tun_struct, it has
no inode, iput is called on invalid inode, which modifies invalid memory
and optionally causes a crash.

sock_release also decrements sockets_in_use, this causes a bug that
"sockets: used" field in /proc/*/net/sockstat keeps on decreasing when
creating and closing tun devices.

This patch introduces a flag SOCK_EXTERNALLY_ALLOCATED that instructs
sock_release to not free the inode and not decrement sockets_in_use,
fixing both memory corruption and sockets_in_use underflow.

It should be backported to 3.3 an 3.4 stabke.

Eric Dumazet 6f458dfb40 tcp: improve latencies of timer triggered events
Modern TCP stack highly depends on tcp_write_timer() having a small
latency, but current implementation doesn't exactly meet the
expectations.

When a timer fires but finds the socket is owned by the user, it rearms
itself for an additional delay hoping next run will be more
successful.

tcp_write_timer() for example uses a 50ms delay for next try, and it
defeats many attempts to get predictable TCP behavior in term of
latencies.

Use the recently introduced tcp_release_cb(), so that the user owning
the socket will call various handlers right before socket release.

This will permit us to post a followup patch to address the
tcp_tso_should_defer() syndrome (some deferred packets have to wait
RTO timer to be transmitted, while cwnd should allow us to send them
sooner)

Yuchung Cheng 67da22d23f net-tcp: Fast Open client - cookie-less mode
In trusted networks, e.g., intranet, data-center, the client does not
need to use Fast Open cookie to mitigate DoS attacks. In cookie-less

of cookie availability.

Yuchung Cheng aab4874355 net-tcp: Fast Open client - detecting SYN-data drops
On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options,
Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance.
The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables
Fast Open temporarily.

Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the
SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect
such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is
disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to
roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but
it behaves as connect() then write().

Yuchung Cheng cf60af03ca net-tcp: Fast Open client - sendmsg(MSG_FASTOPEN)
sendmsg() (or sendto()) with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combo of connect(2)
and write(2). The application should replace connect() with it to
send data in the opening SYN packet.

For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered
locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It
returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails.

For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and
transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie
is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open
cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect().

Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in
simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application
should only use this flag on new sockets.

The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection.

Yuchung Cheng 783237e8da net-tcp: Fast Open client - sending SYN-data
This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is
from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch).

The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the
type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends
data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie
from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends
a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative,
  the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations).

To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP
option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include
data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP
handshake.

Yuchung Cheng 2100c8d2d9 net-tcp: Fast Open base
This patch impelements the common code for both the client and server.

1. TCP Fast Open option processing. Since Fast Open does not have an
   option number assigned by IANA yet, it shares the experiment option
   code 254 by implementing draft-ietf-tcpm-experimental-options
   with a 16 bits magic number 0xF989. This enables global experiments
   without clashing the scarce(2) experimental options available for TCP.

   When the draft status becomes standard (maybe), the client should
   switch to the new option number assigned while the server supports
   both numbers for transistion.

2. The new sysctl tcp_fastopen

3. A place holder init function

Eric Dumazet be9f4a44e7 ipv4: tcp: remove per net tcp_sock
tcp_v4_send_reset() and tcp_v4_send_ack() use a single socket
per network namespace.

This leads to bad behavior on multiqueue NICS, because many cpus
contend for the socket lock and once socket lock is acquired, extra
false sharing on various socket fields slow down the operations.

To better resist to attacks, we use a percpu socket. Each cpu can
run without contention, using appropriate memory (local node)

Additional features :

1) We also mirror the queue_mapping of the incoming skb, so that
answers use the same queue if possible.

2) Setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE socket flag speedup sock_wfree()

3) We now limit the number of in-flight RST/ACK [1] packets
per cpu, instead of per namespace, and we honor the sysctl_wmem_default
limit dynamically. (Prior to this patch, sysctl_wmem_default value was
copied at boot time, so any further change would not affect tcp_sock
limit)

[1] These packets are only generated when no socket was matched for
the incoming packet.

Linus Torvalds eea03c20ae Make wait_for_device_probe() also do scsi_complete_async_scans()
Commit a7a20d1039 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain")
make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async
domain.

However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized
by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes
the global async space, not all of them).  Which in turn meant that
"wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be
parsed.

And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on
for mounting the root filesystem.

Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it
timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd.  So the root
filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all.  And then before they
actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the
scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected
wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans().

[ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken,
  but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d01 ("fix async probe
  regression"), so that same commit a7a20d1039 had actually broken
  setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ]

Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call
into wait_for_device_probe().  Everybody who wants to wait for device
probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's
no reason not to do this.

So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and
properly waits for device probing to finish.  This also removes the now
unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/1249726/focus=1288990,
the capability introduced in 4d7e30d989
to govern EPOLLWAKEUP seems misnamed: this capability is about governing
the ability to suspend the system, not using a particular API flag
(EPOLLWAKEUP). We should make the name of the capability more general
to encourage reuse in related cases. (Whether or not this capability
should also be used to govern the use of /sys/power/wake_lock is a
question that needs to be separately resolved.)

This patch renames the capability to CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND. In order to ensure
that the old capability name doesn't make it out into the wild, could you
please apply and push up the tree to ensure that it is incorporated
for the 3.5 release.

David S. Miller a6ff1a2f1e Merge branch 'nexthop_exceptions'
These patches implement the final mechanism necessary to really allow
us to go without the route cache in ipv4.

We need a place to have long-term storage of PMTU/redirect information
which is independent of the routes themselves, yet does not get us
back into a situation where we have to write to metrics or anything
like that.

For this we use an "next-hop exception" table in the FIB nexthops.

The one thing I desperately want to avoid is having to create clone
routes in the FIB trie for this purpose, because that is very
expensive.   However, I'm willing to entertain such an idea later
if this current scheme proves to have downsides that the FIB trie
variant would not have.

In order to accomodate this any such scheme, we need to be able to
produce a full flow key at PMTU/redirect time.  That required an
adjustment of the interface call-sites used to propagate these events.

For a PMTU/redirect with a fully specified socket, we pass that socket
and use it to produce the flow key.

Otherwise we use a passed in SKB to formulate the key.  There are two
cases that need to be distinguished, ICMP message processing (in which
case the IP header is at skb->data) and output packet processing
(mostly tunnels, and in all such cases the IP header is at ip_hdr(skb)).

We also have to make the code able to handle the case where the dst
itself passed into the dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect} method is
invalidated.  This matters for calls from sockets that have cached
that route.  We provide a inet{,6} helper function for this purpose,
and edit SCTP specially since it caches routes at the transport rather
than socket level.

David S. Miller 4895c771c7 ipv4: Add FIB nexthop exceptions.
In a regime where we have subnetted route entries, we need a way to
store persistent storage about destination specific learned values
such as redirects and PMTU values.

This is implemented here via nexthop exceptions.

The initial implementation is a 2048 entry hash table with relaiming
starting at chain length 5.  A more sophisticated scheme can be
devised if that proves necessary.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) IPVS oops'ers:
   a) Should not reset skb->nf_bridge in forwarding hook (Lin Ming)
   b) 3.4 commit can cause ip_vs_control_cleanup to be invoked after
      the ipvs_core_ops are unregistered during rmmod (Julian ANastasov)

 2) ixgbevf bringup failure can crash in TX descriptor cleanup
    (Alexander Duyck)

 3) AX25 switch missing break statement hoses ROSE sockets (Alan Cox)

 4) CAIF accesses freed per-net memory (Sjur Brandeland)

 5) Network cgroup code has out-or-bounds accesses (Eric DUmazet), and
    accesses freed memory (Gao Feng)

 6) Fix a crash in SCTP reported by Dave Jones caused by freeing an
    association still on a list (Neil HOrman)

 7) __netdev_alloc_skb() regresses on GFP_DMA using drivers because that
    GFP flag is not being retained for the allocation (Eric Dumazet).

 8) Missing NULL hceck in sch_sfb netlink message parsing (Alan Cox)

 9) bnx2 crashes because TX index iteration is not bounded correctly
    (Michael Chan)

10) IPoIB generates warnings in TCP queue collapsing (via
    skb_try_coalesce) because it does not set skb->truesize correctly
    (Eric Dumazet)

11) vlan_info objects leak for the implicit vlan with ID 0 (Amir
    Hanania)

12) A fix for TX time stamp handling in gianfar does not transfer socket
    ownership from one packet to another correctly, resulting in a
    socket write space imbalance (Eric Dumazet)

13) Julia Lawall found several cases where we do a list iteration, and
    then at the loop termination unconditionally assume we ended up with
    real list object, rather than the list head itself (CNIC, RXRPC,
    mISDN).

14) The bonding driver handles procfs moving incorrectly when a device
    it manages is moved from one namespace to another (Eric Biederman)

15) Missing memory barriers in stmmac descriptor accesses result in
    various crashes (Deepak Sikri)

16) Fix handling of broadcast packets in batman-adv (Simon Wunderlich)

17) Properly check the sanity of sendmsg() lengths in ieee802154's
    dgram_sendmsg().  Dave Jones and others have hit and reported this
    bug (Sasha Levin)

18) Some drivers (b44 and b43legacy) on 64-bit machines stopped working
    because of how netdev_alloc_skb() was adjusted.  Such drivers should
    now use alloc_skb() for obtaining bounce buffers.  (Eric Dumazet)

19) atl1c mis-managed it's link state in that it stops the queue by hand
    on link down.  The generic networking takes care of that and this
    double stop locks the queue down.  So simply removing the driver's
    queue stop call fixes the problem (Cloud Ren)

20) Fix out-of-memory due to mis-accounting in net_em packet scheduler
    (Eric Dumazet)

21) If DCB and SR-IOV are configured at the same time in IXGBE the chip
    will hang because this is not supported (Alexander Duyck)

22) A commit to stop drivers using netdev->base_addr broke the CNIC
    driver (Michael Chan)

23) Timeout regression in ipset caused by an attempt to fix an overflow
    bug (Jozsef Kadlecsik).

24) mac80211 minstrel code allocates memory using incorrect size
    (Thomas Huehn)

25) llcp_sock_getname() needs to check for a NULL device otherwise we
    OOPS (Sasha Levin)

26) mwifiex leaks memory (Bing Zhao)

27) Propagate iwlwifi fix to iwlegacy, even when we're not associated
    we need to monitor for stuck queues in the watchdog handler
    (Stanislaw Geuszka)

Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent
in response to SYN packets.

David S. Miller 6700c2709c net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}()
This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.

Even though we have a route in this context, we need more.  In the
future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
etc. keying.  One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.

In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
for redirects and PMTU information.  This persistent storage will exist
in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
full lookup flow key here.  Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
and create/update the persistent entry.
