net: accept UFO datagrams from tuntap and packet

2017-11-23T16:37:35Z

Tuntap and similar devices can inject GSO packets. Accept type VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP, even though not generating UFO natively. Processes are expected to use feature negotiation such as TUNSETOFFLOAD to detect supported offload types and refrain from injecting other packets. This process breaks down with live migration: guest kernels do not renegotiate flags, so destination hosts need to expose all features that the source host does. Partially revert the UFO removal from 182e0b6b5846~1..d9d30adf5677. This patch introduces nearly(*) no new code to simplify verification. It brings back verbatim tuntap UFO negotiation, VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP insertion and software UFO segmentation. It does not reinstate protocol stack support, hardware offload (NETIF_F_UFO), SKB_GSO_UDP tunneling in SKB_GSO_SOFTWARE or reception of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP packets in tuntap. To support SKB_GSO_UDP reappearing in the stack, also reinstate logic in act_csum and openvswitch. Achieve equivalence with v4.13 HEAD by squashing in commit 939912216fa8 ("net: skb_needs_check() removes CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY check for tx.") and reverting commit 8d63bee643f1 ("net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO"). (*) To avoid having to bring back skb_shinfo(skb)->ip6_frag_id, ipv6_proxy_select_ident is changed to return a __be32 and this is assigned directly to the frag_hdr. Also, SKB_GSO_UDP is inserted at the end of the enum to minimize code churn. Tested Booted a v4.13 guest kernel with QEMU. On a host kernel before this patch `ethtool -k eth0` shows UFO disabled. After the patch, it is enabled, same as on a v4.13 host kernel. A UFO packet sent from the guest appears on the tap device: host: nc -l -p -u 8000 & tcpdump -n -i tap0 guest: dd if=/dev/zero of=payload.txt bs=1 count=2000 nc -u 192.16.1.1 8000 < payload.txt Direct tap to tap transmission of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP succeeds, packets arriving fragmented: ./with_tap_pair.sh ./tap_send_ufo tap0 tap1 (from https://github.com/wdebruij/kerneltools/tree/master/tests) Changes v1 -> v2 - simplified set_offload change (review comment) - documented test procedure Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/ Fixes: fb652fdfe837 ("macvlan/macvtap: Remove NETIF_F_UFO advertisement.")

mm: remove __GFP_COLD

2017-11-16T02:21:06Z

As the page free path makes no distinction between cache hot and cold pages, there is no real useful ordering of pages in the free list that allocation requests can take advantage of. Juding from the users of __GFP_COLD, it is likely that a number of them are the result of copying other sites instead of actually measuring the impact. Remove the __GFP_COLD parameter which simplifies a number of paths in the page allocator. This is potentially controversial but bear in mind that the size of the per-cpu pagelists versus modern cache sizes means that the whole per-cpu list can often fit in the L3 cache. Hence, there is only a potential benefit for microbenchmarks that alloc/free pages in a tight loop. It's even worse when THP is taken into account which has little or no chance of getting a cache-hot page as the per-cpu list is bypassed and the zeroing of multiple pages will thrash the cache anyway. The truncate microbenchmarks are not shown as this patch affects the allocation path and not the free path. A page fault microbenchmark was tested but it showed no sigificant difference which is not surprising given that the __GFP_COLD branches are a miniscule percentage of the fault path.

kmemcheck: remove annotations

2017-11-16T02:21:04Z

Patch series "kmemcheck: kill kmemcheck", v2. As discussed at LSF/MM, kill kmemcheck. KASan is a replacement that is able to work without the limitation of kmemcheck (single CPU, slow). KASan is already upstream. We are also not aware of any users of kmemcheck (or users who don't consider KASan as a suitable replacement). The only objection was that since KASAN wasn't supported by all GCC versions provided by distros at that time we should hold off for 2 years, and try again. Now that 2 years have passed, and all distros provide gcc that supports KASAN, kill kmemcheck again for the very same reasons. This patch (of 4): Remove kmemcheck annotations, and calls to kmemcheck from the kernel.

netfilter/ipvs: clear ipvs_property flag when SKB net namespace changed

2017-11-04T13:37:42Z

When run ipvs in two different network namespace at the same host, and one ipvs transport network traffic to the other network namespace ipvs. 'ipvs_property' flag will make the second ipvs take no effect. So we should clear 'ipvs_property' when SKB network namespace changed.

tcp: new list for sent but unacked skbs for RACK recovery

2017-10-06T04:24:47Z

This patch adds a new queue (list) that tracks the sent but not yet acked or SACKed skbs for a TCP connection. The list is chronologically ordered by skb->skb_mstamp (the head is the oldest sent skb). This list will be used to optimize TCP Rack recovery, which checks an skb's timestamp to judge if it has been lost and needs to be retransmitted. Since TCP write queue is ordered by sequence instead of sent time, RACK has to scan over the write queue to catch all eligible packets to detect lost retransmission, and iterates through SACKed skbs repeatedly. Special cares for rare events: 1. TCP repair fakes skb transmission so the send queue needs adjusted 2. SACK reneging would require re-inserting SACKed skbs into the send queue. For now I believe it's not worth the complexity to make RACK work perfectly on SACK reneging, so we do nothing here. 3. Fast Open: currently for non-TFO, send-queue correctly queues the pure SYN packet. For TFO which queues a pure SYN and then a data packet, send-queue only queues the data packet but not the pure SYN due to the structure of TFO code. This is okay because the SYN receiver would never respond with a SACK on a missing SYN (i.e. SYN is never fast-retransmitted by SACK/RACK). In order to not grow sk_buff, we use an union for the new list and _skb_refdst/destructor fields. This is a bit complicated because we need to make sure _skb_refdst and destructor are properly zeroed before skb is cloned/copied at transmit, and before being freed.
