It's not really needed. We only grabbed a reference to the fib_info for the sake of fib_info local metrics. However, fib_info objects are freed using RCU, as are therefore their private metrics (if any). We would have triggered a route cache flush if we eliminated a reference to a fib_info object in the routing tables. Therefore, any existing cached routes will first check and see that they have been invalidated before an errant reference to these metric values would occur. Signed-off-by: David S.

That is this value's only use, as a boolean to indicate whether a route is an input route or not. So implement it that way, using a u16 gap present in the struct already. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Never actually used. It was being set on output routes to the original OIF specified in the flow key used for the lookup. Adjust the only user, ipmr_rt_fib_lookup(), for greater correctness of the flowi4_oif and flowi4_iif values, thanks to feedback from Julian Anastasov. Signed-off-by: David S.

Caching input routes is slightly simpler than output routes, since we don't need to be concerned with nexthop exceptions. (locally destined, and routed packets, never trigger PMTU events or redirects that will be processed by us). However, we have to elide caching for the DIRECTSRC and non-zero itag cases.

If we have an output route that lacks nexthop exceptions, we can cache it in the FIB info nexthop. Such routes will have DST_HOST cleared because such routes refer to a family of destinations, rather than just one. The sequence of the handling of exceptions during route lookup is adjusted to make the logic work properly. Before we allocate the route, we lookup the exception. Then we know if we will cache this route or not, and therefore whether DST_HOST should be set on the allocated route. Then we use DST_HOST to key off whether we should store the resulting route, during rt_set_nexthop(), in the FIB nexthop cache. With help from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S.

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.

The "noref" argument to ip_route_input_common() is now always ignored because we do not cache routes, and in that case we must always grab a reference to the resulting 'dst'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

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. Signed-off-by: David S.

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 1ab5ecb9 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. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mikulas@artax.karlin.mff.cuni.cz> Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

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) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Cc: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Cc: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Cc: Nandita Dukkipati <nanditad@google.com> Cc: H.K.

The Janz VMOD-ICAN3 hardware has support for one shot packet transmission. This means that a packet will be attempted to be sent once, with no automatic retries. The SocketCAN core has a controller-wide setting for this mode: CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT. The Janz VMOD-ICAN3 hardware supports this flag on a per-packet level, but the SocketCAN core does not.

If the bus error quota is set to infinite and the host CPU cannot keep up, the Janz VMOD-ICAN3 firmware will stop responding to control messages until the controller is reset. The firmware will automatically stop sending bus error messages when the quota is reached, and will only resume sending bus error messages when the quota is re-set to a positive value. This limitation is worked around by setting the bus error quota to one message, and then re-setting the quota to one message every time a bus error message is received. By doing this, the firmware never stops responding to control messages. The CAN bus can be reset without a hard-reset of the controller card. Signed-off-by: Ira W.

The Janz VMOD-ICAN3 firmware does not support any sort of TX-done notification or interrupt. The driver previously used the hardware loopback to attempt to work around this deficiency, but this caused all sockets to receive all messages, even if CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS is off. Using the new function ican3_cmp_echo_skb(), we can drop the loopback messages and return the original skbs. This fixes the issues with CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS. A private skb queue is used to store the echo skbs. This avoids the need for any index management. Due to a lack of TX-error interrupts, bus errors are permanently enabled, and are used as a TX-error notification. This is used to drop an echo skb when transmission fails. Bus error packets are not generated if the user has not enabled bus error reporting. Signed-off-by: Ira W. Snyder <iws@ovro.caltech.edu> Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>

The error and byte counter statistics were being incremented incorrectly. For example, a TX error would be counted both in tx_errors and rx_errors. This corrects the problem so that tx_errors and rx_errors are only incremented for errors caused by packets sent to the bus. Error packets generated by the driver are not counted. The byte counters are only increased for packets which are actually transmitted or received from the bus. Error packets generated by the driver are not counted. Signed-off-by: Ira W.
