ipvlan, l3mdev: fix broken l3s mode wrt local routes

2019-02-06T16:27:35Z

[ Upstream commit d5256083f62e2720f75bb3c5a928a0afe47d6bc3 ] While implementing ipvlan l3 and l3s mode for kubernetes CNI plugin, I ran into the issue that while l3 mode is working fine, l3s mode does not have any connectivity to kube-apiserver and hence all pods end up in Error state as well. The ipvlan master device sits on top of a bond device and hostns traffic to kube-apiserver (also running in hostns) is DNATed from 10.152.183.1:443 to 139.178.29.207:37573 where the latter is the address of the bond0. While in l3 mode, a curl to https://10.152.183.1:443 or to https://139.178.29.207:37573 works fine from hostns, neither of them do in case of l3s. In the latter only a curl to https://127.0.0.1:37573 appeared to work where for local addresses of bond0 I saw kernel suddenly starting to emit ARP requests to query HW address of bond0 which remained unanswered and neighbor entries in INCOMPLETE state. These ARP requests only happen while in l3s. Debugging this further, I found the issue is that l3s mode is piggy- backing on l3 master device, and in this case local routes are using l3mdev_master_dev_rcu(dev) instead of net->loopback_dev as per commit f5a0aab84b74 ("net: ipv4: dst for local input routes should use l3mdev if relevant") and 5f02ce24c269 ("net: l3mdev: Allow the l3mdev to be a loopback"). I found that reverting them back into using the net->loopback_dev fixed ipvlan l3s connectivity and got everything working for the CNI. Now judging from 4fbae7d83c98 ("ipvlan: Introduce l3s mode") and the l3mdev paper in [0] the only sole reason why ipvlan l3s is relying on l3 master device is to get the l3mdev_ip_rcv() receive hook for setting the dst entry of the input route without adding its own ipvlan specific hacks into the receive path, however, any l3 domain semantics beyond just that are breaking l3s operation. Note that ipvlan also has the ability to dynamically switch its internal operation from l3 to l3s for all ports via ipvlan_set_port_mode() at runtime. In any case, l3 vs l3s soley distinguishes itself by 'de-confusing' netfilter through switching skb->dev to ipvlan slave device late in NF_INET_LOCAL_IN before handing the skb to L4. Minimal fix taken here is to add a IFF_L3MDEV_RX_HANDLER flag which, if set from ipvlan setup, gets us only the wanted l3mdev_l3_rcv() hook without any additional l3mdev semantics on top. This should also have minimal impact since dev->priv_flags is already hot in cache. With this set, l3s mode is working fine and I also get things like masquerading pod traffic on the ipvlan master properly working.

net: bql: add __netdev_tx_sent_queue()

2018-11-03T22:40:01Z

When qdisc_run() tries to use BQL budget to bulk-dequeue a batch of packets, GSO can later transform this list in another list of skbs, and each skb is sent to device ndo_start_xmit(), one at a time, with skb->xmit_more being set to one but for last skb. Problem is that very often, BQL limit is hit in the middle of the packet train, forcing dev_hard_start_xmit() to stop the bulk send and requeue the end of the list. BQL role is to avoid head of line blocking, making sure a qdisc can deliver high priority packets before low priority ones. But there is no way requeued packets can be bypassed by fresh packets in the qdisc. Aborting the bulk send increases TX softirqs, and hot cache lines (after skb_segment()) are wasted. Note that for TSO packets, we never split a packet in the middle because of BQL limit being hit. Drivers should be able to update BQL counters without flipping/caring about BQL status, if the current skb has xmit_more set. Upper layers are ultimately responsible to stop sending another packet train when BQL limit is hit. Code template in a driver might look like the following : send_doorbell = __netdev_tx_sent_queue(tx_queue, nr_bytes, skb->xmit_more); Note that __netdev_tx_sent_queue() use is not mandatory, since following patch will change dev_hard_start_xmit() to not care about BQL status. But it is highly recommended so that xmit_more full benefits can be reached (less doorbells sent, and less atomic operations as well) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

FDDI: defza: Support capturing outgoing SMT traffic

2018-10-16T04:46:06Z

DEC FDDIcontroller 700 (DEFZA) uses a Tx/Rx queue pair to communicate SMT frames with adapter's firmware. Any SMT frame received from the RMC via the Rx queue is queued back by the driver to the SMT Rx queue for the firmware to process. Similarly the firmware uses the SMT Tx queue to supply the driver with SMT frames which are queued back to the Tx queue for the RMC to send to the ring. When a network tap is attached to an FDDI interface handled by `defza' any incoming SMT frames captured are queued to our usual processing of network data received, which in turn delivers them to any listening taps. However the outgoing SMT frames produced by the firmware bypass our network protocol stack and are therefore not delivered to taps. This in turn means that taps are missing a part of network traffic sent by the adapter, which may make it more difficult to track down network problems or do general traffic analysis. Call `dev_queue_xmit_nit' then in the SMT Tx path, having checked that a network tap is attached, with a newly-created `dev_nit_active' helper wrapping the usual condition used in the transmit path.

net: ipv4: update fnhe_pmtu when first hop's MTU changes

2018-10-11T05:44:46Z

Since commit 5aad1de5ea2c ("ipv4: use separate genid for next hop exceptions"), exceptions get deprecated separately from cached routes. In particular, administrative changes don't clear PMTU anymore. As Stefano described in commit e9fa1495d738 ("ipv6: Reflect MTU changes on PMTU of exceptions for MTU-less routes"), the PMTU discovered before the local MTU change can become stale: - if the local MTU is now lower than the PMTU, that PMTU is now incorrect - if the local MTU was the lowest value in the path, and is increased, we might discover a higher PMTU Similarly to what commit e9fa1495d738 did for IPv6, update PMTU in those cases. If the exception was locked, the discovered PMTU was smaller than the minimal accepted PMTU. In that case, if the new local MTU is smaller than the current PMTU, let PMTU discovery figure out if locking of the exception is still needed. To do this, we need to know the old link MTU in the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU notifier. By the time the notifier is called, dev->mtu has been changed. This patch adds the old MTU as additional information in the notifier structure, and a new call_netdevice_notifiers_u32() function.

Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2018-10-08 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) sk_lookup_[tcp|udp] and sk_release helpers from Joe Stringer which allow BPF programs to perform lookups for sockets in a network namespace. This would allow programs to determine early on in processing whether the stack is expecting to receive the packet, and perform some action (eg drop, forward somewhere) based on this information. 2) per-cpu cgroup local storage from Roman Gushchin. Per-cpu cgroup local storage is very similar to simple cgroup storage except all the data is per-cpu. The main goal of per-cpu variant is to implement super fast counters (e.g. packet counters), which don't require neither lookups, neither atomic operations in a fast path. The example of these hybrid counters is in selftests/bpf/netcnt_prog.c 3) allow HW offload of programs with BPF-to-BPF function calls from Quentin Monnet 4) support more than 64-byte key/value in HW offloaded BPF maps from Jakub Kicinski 5) rename of libbpf interfaces from Andrey Ignatov. libbpf is maturing as a library and should follow good practices in library design and implementation to play well with other libraries. This patch set brings consistent naming convention to global symbols. 6) relicense libbpf as LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause from Alexei Starovoitov to let Apache2 projects use libbpf 7) various AF_XDP fixes from Björn and Magnus ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
