      ipv6: remove hard coded limitation on ipv6_pinfo · f5f80e32
      Eric Dumazet authored
      IPv6 inet sockets are supposed to have a "struct ipv6_pinfo"
      field at the end of their definition, so that inet6_sk_generic()
      can derive from socket size the offset of the "struct ipv6_pinfo".
      
      This is very fragile, and prevents adding bigger alignment
      in sockets, because inet6_sk_generic() does not work
      if the compiler adds padding after the ipv6_pinfo component.
      
      We are currently working on a patch series to reorganize
      TCP structures for better data locality and found issues
      similar to the one fixed in commit f5d54767
      ("tcp: fix tcp_inet6_sk() for 32bit kernels")
      
      Alternative would be to force an alignment on "struct ipv6_pinfo",
      greater or equal to __alignof__(any ipv6 sock) to ensure there is
      no padding. This does not look great.

      net: add sysctl accept_ra_min_rtr_lft · 1671bcfd
      Patrick Rohr authored
      This change adds a new sysctl accept_ra_min_rtr_lft to specify the
      minimum acceptable router lifetime in an RA. If the received RA router
      lifetime is less than the configured value (and not 0), the RA is
      ignored.
      This is useful for mobile devices, whose battery life can be impacted
      by networks that configure RAs with a short lifetime. On such networks,
      the device should never gain IPv6 provisioning and should attempt to
      drop RAs via hardware offload, if available.

      net: dsa: remove deprecated strncpy · 5c9f7b04
      justinstitt@google.com authored
      `strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1].
      
      Even call sites utilizing length-bounded destination buffers should
      switch over to using `strtomem` or `strtomem_pad`. In this case,
      however, the compiler is unable to determine the size of the `data`
      buffer which renders `strtomem` unusable. Due to this, `strscpy`
      should be used.
      
      It should be noted that most call sites already zero-initialize the
      destination buffer. However, I've opted to use `strscpy_pad` to maintain
      the same exact behavior that `strncpy` produced (zero-padded tail up to
      `len`).
      
      Also see [3].

      ====================
      Process connector bug fixes & enhancements
      
      Oracle DB is trying to solve a performance overhead problem it has been
      facing for the past 10 years and using this patch series, we can fix this
      issue.
      
      Oracle DB runs on a large scale with 100000s of short lived processes,
      starting up and exiting quickly. A process monitoring DB daemon which
      tracks and cleans up after processes that have died without a proper exit
      needs notifications only when a process died with a non-zero exit code
      (which should be rare).
      
      Due to the pmon architecture, which is distributed, each process is
      independent and has minimal interaction with pmon. Hence fd based
      solutions to track a process's spawning and exit cannot be used. Pmon
      needs to detect the abnormal death of a process so it can cleanup after.
      Currently it resorts to checking /proc every few seconds. Other methods
      we tried like using system call to reduce the above overhead were not
      accepted upstream.
      
      With this change, we add event based filtering to proc connector module
      so that DB can only listen to the events it is interested in. A new
      event type PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT is added, which is only sent by kernel
      to a listening application when any process exiting has a non-zero exit
      status.
      
      This change will give Oracle DB substantial performance savings - it takes
      50ms to scan about 8K PIDs in /proc, about 500ms for 100K PIDs. DB does
      this check every 3 secs, so over an hour we save 10secs for 100K PIDs.
      
      With this, a client can register to listen for only exit or fork or a mix or
      all of the events. This greatly enhances performance - currently, we
      need to listen to all events, and there are 9 different types of events.
      For eg. handling 3 types of events - 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes
      200ms, whereas handling 2 types - 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms,
      and handling just one type - 8K exits takes about 70ms.
      
      Measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took 4
      times longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications
      of proc connector. Hence, we cannot use pidfd for our use case.
      
      This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like
      Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification.

      connector/cn_proc: Allow non-root users access · bfdfdc2f
      Anjali Kulkarni authored
      There were a couple of reasons for not allowing non-root users access
      initially  - one is there was some point no proper receive buffer
      management in place for netlink multicast. But that should be long
      fixed. See link below for more context.
      
      Second is that some of the messages may contain data that is root only. But
      this should be handled with a finer granularity, which is being done at the
      protocol layer.  The only problematic protocols are nf_queue and the
      firewall netlink. Hence, this restriction for non-root access was relaxed
      for NETLINK_ROUTE initially:
      https://lore.kernel.org/all/20020612013101.A22399@wotan.suse.de/
      
      This restriction has also been removed for following protocols:
      NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT, NETLINK_AUDIT, NETLINK_SOCK_DIAG,
      NETLINK_GENERIC, NETLINK_SELINUX.
      
      Since process connector messages are not sensitive (process fork, exit
      notifications etc.), and anyone can read /proc data, we can allow non-root
      access here. However, since process event notification is not the only
      consumer of NETLINK_CONNECTOR, we can make this change even more
      fine grained than the protocol level, by checking for multicast group
      within the protocol.
      
      Allow non-root access for NETLINK_CONNECTOR via NL_CFG_F_NONROOT_RECV
      but add new bind function cn_bind(), which allows non-root access only
      for CN_IDX_PROC multicast group.

      connector/cn_proc: Performance improvements · 743acf35
      Anjali Kulkarni authored
      This patch adds the capability to filter messages sent by the proc
      connector on the event type supplied in the message from the client
      to the connector. The client can register to listen for an event type
      given in struct proc_input.
      
      This event based filteting will greatly enhance performance - handling
      8K exits takes about 70ms, whereas 8K-forks + 8K-exits takes about 150ms
      & handling 8K-forks + 8K-exits + 8K-execs takes 200ms. There are currently
      9 different types of events, and we need to listen to all of them. Also,
      measuring the time using pidfds for monitoring 8K process exits took
      much longer - 200ms, as compared to 70ms using only exit notifications of
      proc connector.
      
      We also add a new event type - PROC_EVENT_NONZERO_EXIT, which is
      only sent by kernel to a listening application when any process exiting,
      has a non-zero exit status. This will help the clients like Oracle DB,
      where a monitoring process wants notfications for non-zero process exits
      so it can cleanup after them.
      
      This kind of a new event could also be useful to other applications like
      Google's lmkd daemon, which needs a killed process's exit notification.
      
      The patch takes care that existing clients using old mechanism of not
      sending the event type work without any changes.
      
      cn_filter function checks to see if the event type being notified via
      proc connector matches the event type requested by client, before
      sending(matches) or dropping(does not match) a packet.

      connector/cn_proc: Add filtering to fix some bugs · 2aa1f7a1
      Anjali Kulkarni authored
      The current proc connector code has the foll. bugs - if there are more
      than one listeners for the proc connector messages, and one of them
      deregisters for listening using PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, they will still get
      all proc connector messages, as long as there is another listener.
      
      Another issue is if one client calls PROC_CN_MCAST_LISTEN, and another one
      calls PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE, then both will end up not getting any messages.
      
      This patch adds filtering and drops packet if client has sent
      PROC_CN_MCAST_IGNORE. This data is stored in the client socket's
      sk_user_data. In addition, we only increment or decrement
      proc_event_num_listeners once per client. This fixes the above issues.
      
      cn_release is the release function added for NETLINK_CONNECTOR. It uses
      the newly added netlink_release function added to netlink_sock. It will
      free sk_user_data.

      the count increases the max number of child nodes supported.

      Petr Machata says:
      
      ====================
      mlxsw: Permit enslavement to netdevices with uppers
      
      The mlxsw driver currently makes the assumption that the user applies
      configuration in a bottom-up manner. Thus netdevices need to be added to
      the bridge before IP addresses are configured on that bridge or SVI added
      on top of it. Enslaving a netdevice to another netdevice that already has
      uppers is in fact forbidden by mlxsw for this reason. Despite this safety,
      it is rather easy to get into situations where the offloaded configuration
      is just plain wrong.
      
      As an example, take a front panel port, configure an IP address: it gets a
      RIF. Now enslave the port to the bridge, and the RIF is gone. Remove the
      port from the bridge again, but the RIF never comes back. There is a number
      of similar situations, where changing the configuration there and back
      utterly breaks the offload.
      
      Similarly, detaching a front panel port from a configured topology means
      unoffloading of this whole topology -- VLAN uppers, next hops, etc.
      Attaching the port back is then not permitted at all. If it were, it would
      not result in a working configuration, because much of mlxsw is written to
      react to changes in immediate configuration. There is nothing that would go
      visit netdevices in the attached-to topology and offload existing routes
      and VLAN memberships, for example.
      
      In this patchset, introduce a number of replays to be invoked so that this
      sort of post-hoc offload is supported. Then remove the vetoes that
      disallowed enslavement of front panel ports to other netdevices with
      uppers.
      
      The patchset progresses as follows:
      
      - In patch #1, fix an issue in the bridge driver. To my knowledge, the
        issue could not have resulted in a buggy behavior previously, and thus is
        packaged with this patchset instead of being sent separately to net.
      
      - In patch #2, add a new helper to the switchdev code.
      
      - In patch #3, drop mlxsw selftests that will not be relevant after this
        patchset anymore.
      
      - Patches #4, #5, #6, #7 and #8 prepare the codebase for smoother
        introduction of the rest of the code.
      
      - Patches #9, #10, #11, #12, #13 and #14 replay various aspects of upper
        configuration when a front panel port is introduced into a topology.
        Individual patches take care of bridge and LAG RIF memberships, switchdev
        replay, nexthop and neighbors replay, and MACVLAN offload.
      
      - Patches #15 and #16 introduce RIFs for newly-relevant netdevices when a
        front panel port is enslaved (in which case all uppers are newly
        relevant), or, respectively, deslaved (in which case the newly-relevant
        netdevice is the one being deslaved).
      
      - Up until this point, the introduced scaffolding was not really used,
        because mlxsw still forbids enslavement of mlxsw netdevices to uppers
        with uppers. In patch #17, this condition is finally relaxed.
      
      A sizable selftest suite is available to test all this new code. That will
      be sent in a separate patchset.

      mlxsw: spectrum: Permit enslavement to netdevices with uppers · 2c5ffe8d
      Petr Machata authored
      Enslaving of front panel ports (and their uppers) to netdevices that
      already have uppers is currently forbidden. In the previous patches, a
      number of replays have been added. Those ensure that various bits of state,
      such as next hops or switchdev objects, are offloaded when they become
      relevant due to a mlxsw lower being introduced into the topology.
      
      However the act of actually, for example, enslaving a front-panel port to
      a bridge with uppers, has been vetoed so far. In this patch, remove the
      vetoes and permit the operation.
      
      mlxsw currently validates creation of "interesting" uppers. Thus creating
      VLAN netdevices on top of 802.1ad bridges is forbidden if the bridge has an
      mlxsw lower, but permitted in general. This validation code never gets run
      when a port is introduced as a lower of an existing netdevice structure.
      
      Thus when enslaving an mlxsw netdevice to netdevices with uppers, invoke
      the PRECHANGEUPPER event handler for each netdevice above the one that the
      front panel port is being enslaved to. This way the tower of netdevices
      above the attachment point is validated.

      mlxsw: spectrum_router: Replay IP NETDEV_UP on device deslavement · 4560cf40
      Petr Machata authored
      When a netdevice is removed from a bridge or a LAG, and it has an IP
      address, it should join the router and gain a RIF. Do that by replaying
      address addition event on the netdevice.
      
      When handling deslavement of LAG or its upper from a bridge device, the
      replay should be done after all the lowers of the LAG have left the bridge.
      Thus these scenarios are handled by passing replay_deslavement of false,
      and by invoking, after the lowers have been processed, a new helper,
      mlxsw_sp_netdevice_post_lag_event(), which does the per-LAG / -upper
      handling, and in particular invokes the replay.

      Enslaving of front panel ports (and their uppers) to netdevices that

      uppers with IP addresses need to have the NETDEV_UP inetaddr event

      mlxsw: spectrum_router: Replay neighbours when RIF is made · 8fdb09a7
      Petr Machata authored
      As neighbours are created, mlxsw is involved through the netevent
      notifications. When at the time there is no RIF for a given neighbour, the
      notification is not acted upon. When the RIF is later created, these
      outstanding neighbours are left unoffloaded and cause traffic to go through
      the SW datapath.
      
      In order to fix this issue, as a RIF is created, walk the ARP and ND tables
      and find neighbours for the netdevice that represents the RIF. Then
      schedule neighbour work for them, allowing them to be offloaded.

      mlxsw: spectrum_router: Replay MACVLANs when RIF is made · 49c3a615
      Petr Machata authored
      If IP address is added to a MACVLAN netdevice, the effect is of configuring
      VRRP on the RIF for the netdevice linked to the MACVLAN. Because the
      MACVLAN offload is tied to existence of a RIF at the linked netdevice,
      adding a MACVLAN is currently not allowed until a RIF is present.
      
      If this requirement stays, it will never be possible to attach a first port
      into a topology that involves a MACVLAN. Thus topologies would need to be
      built in a certain order, which is impractical.
      
      Additionally, IP address removal, which leads to disappearance of the RIF
      that the MACVLAN depends on, cannot be vetoed. Thus even as things stand
      now it is possible to get to a state where a MACVLAN netdevice exists
      without a RIF, despite having mlxsw lowers. And once the MACVLAN is
      un-offloaded due to RIF getting destroyed, recreating the RIF does not
      bring it back.
      
      In this patch, accept that MACVLAN can be created out of order and support
      that use case.
      
      One option would seem to be to simply recognize MACVLAN netdevices as
      "interesting", and let the existing replay mechanisms take care of the
      offload. However, that does not address the necessity to reoffload MACVLAN
      once a RIF is created.
      
      Thus add a new replay hook, symmetrical to mlxsw_sp_rif_macvlan_flush(),
      called mlxsw_sp_rif_macvlan_replay(), which instead of unwinding the
      existing offloads, applies the configuration as if the netdevice were
      created just now.
      
      Additionally, remove all vetoes and warning messages that checked for
      presence of a RIF at the linked device.

      As RIF is created, refresh each netxhop group tracked at the CRIF for which

      Note that nothing needs to be done for IPIP nexthops. The RIF for these is
      either available from the get-go, or will never be available, so no after
      the fact offloading needs to be done.
