net: add sk_fullsock() helper

2015-06-28T17:39:21Z

[ Upstream commit 1d0ab253872cdd3d8e7913f59c266c7fd01771d0 ] We have many places where we want to check if a socket is not a timewait or request socket. Use a helper to avoid hard coding this. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack

2015-04-27T20:48:28Z

[ Upstream commit f60e5990d9c1424af9dbca60a23ba2a1c7c1ce90 ] We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process. ipv6 does not conform with this in three places: 1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size 2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should loop the packet back to the local socket 3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and force a wrong MTU Furthermore: In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device. Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting tunnel devices. Cc: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Most notable changes in here: 1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of several individuals. Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires. skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to call the driver immediately with another SKB to send. There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in software is now done with no locks held. Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can be used to test a multi-send implementation. Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4, virtio_net Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to support this optimization soon. I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann, David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell. 2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon. 3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From Govindarajulu Varadarajan. 4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from Florian Fainelli. 5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled, but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen(). From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric Dumazet. 6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom Herbert. 7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian Fainelli. 8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann. 9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John Fastabend. 10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander Duyck. 11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric Dumazet. 12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From Florian Westphal. 13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly faster.

Pull dmaengine updates from Dan Williams: "Even though this has fixes marked for -stable, given the size and the needed conflict resolutions this is 3.18-rc1/merge-window material. These patches have been languishing in my tree for a long while. The fact that I do not have the time to do proper/prompt maintenance of this tree is a primary factor in the decision to step down as dmaengine maintainer. That and the fact that the bulk of drivers/dma/ activity is going through Vinod these days. The net_dma removal has not been in -next. It has developed simple conflicts against mainline and net-next (for-3.18). Continuing thanks to Vinod for staying on top of drivers/dma/.

net_dma: simple removal

2014-09-28T14:05:16Z

Per commit "77873803363c net_dma: mark broken" net_dma is no longer used and there is no plan to fix it. This is the mechanical removal of bits in CONFIG_NET_DMA ifdef guards. Reverting the remainder of the net_dma induced changes is deferred to subsequent patches. Marked for stable due to Roman's report of a memory leak in dma_pin_iovec_pages(): https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/3/177 Cc: Dave Jiang Cc: Vinod Koul Cc: David Whipple Cc: Alexander Duyck Cc: Reported-by: Roman Gushchin Acked-by: David S.

net: merge cases where sock_efree and sock_edemux are the same function

2014-09-06T00:43:45Z

Since sock_efree and sock_demux are essentially the same code for non-TCP sockets and the case where CONFIG_INET is not defined we can combine the code or replace the call to sock_edemux in several spots. As a result we can avoid a bit of unnecessary code or code duplication. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net-timestamp: Make the clone operation stand-alone from phy timestamping

2014-09-06T00:43:45Z

The phy timestamping takes a different path than the regular timestamping does in that it will create a clone first so that the packets needing to be timestamped can be placed in a queue, or the context block could be used. In order to support these use cases I am pulling the core of the code out so it can be used in other drivers beyond just phy devices. In addition I have added a destructor named sock_efree which is meant to provide a simple way for dropping the reference to skb exceptions that aren't part of either the receive or send windows for the socket, and I have removed some duplication in spots where this destructor could be used in place of sock_edemux.

net-timestamp: only report sw timestamp if reporting bit is set

2014-09-05T22:02:43Z

The timestamping API has separate bits for generating and reporting timestamps. A software timestamp should only be reported for a packet when the packet has the relevant generation flag (SKBTX_..) set and the socket has reporting bit SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE set. The second check was accidentally removed. Reinstitute the original behavior. Tested: Without this patch, Documentation/networking/txtimestamp reports timestamps regardless of whether SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE is set. After the patch, it only reports them when the flag is set.
