    net/sched: add delete_empty() to filters and use it in cls_flower · a5b72a08
    Davide Caratti authored
    Revert "net/sched: cls_u32: fix refcount leak in the error path of
    u32_change()", and fix the u32 refcount leak in a more generic way that
    preserves the semantic of rule dumping.
    On tc filters that don't support lockless insertion/removal, there is no
    need to guard against concurrent insertion when a removal is in progress.
    Therefore, for most of them we can avoid a full walk() when deleting, and
    just decrease the refcount, like it was done on older Linux kernels.
    This fixes situations where walk() was wrongly detecting a non-empty
    filter, like it happened with cls_u32 in the error path of change(), thus
    leading to failures in the following tdc selftests:
    
     6aa7: (filter, u32) Add/Replace u32 with source match and invalid indev
     6658: (filter, u32) Add/Replace u32 with custom hash table and invalid handle
     74c2: (filter, u32) Add/Replace u32 filter with invalid hash table id
    
    On cls_flower, and on (future) lockless filters, this check is necessary:
    move all the check_empty() logic in a callback so that each filter
    can have its own implementation. For cls_flower, it's sufficient to check
    if no IDRs have been allocated.
    
    This reverts commit 275c44aa.
    
    Changes since v1:
     - document the need for delete_empty() when TCF_PROTO_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED
       is used, thanks to Vlad Buslov
     - implement delete_empty() without doing fl_walk(), thanks to Vlad Buslov
     - squash revert and new fix in a single patch, to be nice with bisect
       tests that run tdc on u32 filter, thanks to Dave Miller
    
    Fixes: 275c44aa ("net/sched: cls_u32: fix refcount leak in the error path of u32_change()")
    Fixes: 6676d5e4 ("net: sched: set dedicated tcf_walker flag when tp is empty")
