The driver was not setting the number of real Tx queues in the net_device structure. This caused some serious issues such as Tx hangs and extremely poor performance with some usages of the driver. The issue is best observed by running: iperf -c <host> -P <n> Where n is greater than one. The greater the value of n the more likely the problem is to show up.

After the change "Make neigh lookups directly in output packet path" (commit a263b309) IPVS can not reach the real server for DR mode because we resolve the destination address from IP header, not from route neighbour. Use the new FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH flag to request output routes with known nexthop, so that it has preference on resolving. Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add flag to request that output route should be returned with known rt_gateway, in case we want to use it as nexthop for neighbour resolving. The returned route can be cached as follows: - in NH exception: because the cached routes are not shared with other destinations - in FIB NH: when using gateway because all destinations for NH share same gateway As last option, to return rt_gateway!=0 we have to set DST_NOCACHE.

Add new flag to remember when route is via gateway. We will use it to allow rt_gateway to contain address of directly connected host for the cases when DST_NOCACHE is used or when the NH exception caches per-destination route without DST_NOCACHE flag, i.e. when routes are not used for other destinations. By this way we force the neighbour resolving to work with the routed destination but we can use different address in the packet, feature needed for IPVS-DR where original packet for virtual IP is routed via route to real IP.

After the change "Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway" (commit f8126f1d) rt_gateway can be 0 but ip_forward() compares it directly with nexthop. What we want here is to check if traffic is to directly connected nexthop and to fail if using gateway. Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: David S.

After "Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops" (commit d2d68ba9) and "Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible" (commit 7a9bc9b8) we can not send ICMP redirects. It seems we should not cache the RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag in nh_rth_input because the same fib_info can be used for traffic that is not redirected, eg. from other input devices or from sources that are not in same subnet. As result, we have to disable the caching of RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag and to force source validation for the case when forwarding traffic to the input device. If traffic comes from directly connected source we allow redirection as it was done before both changes. Avoid setting RTCF_DOREDIRECT if IN_DEV_TX_REDIRECTS is disabled, this can avoid source address validation and to help caching the routes. After the change "Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway" (commit f8126f1d) we should make sure our ICMP_REDIR_HOST messages contain daddr instead of 0.0.0.0 when target is directly connected.

It seems IPV6_GRO_CB(skb)->proto can be destroyed in skb_gro_receive() if a new skb is allocated (to serve as an anchor for frag_list) We copy NAPI_GRO_CB() only (not the IPV6 specific part) in : *NAPI_GRO_CB(nskb) = *NAPI_GRO_CB(p); So we leave IPV6_GRO_CB(nskb)->proto to 0 (fresh skb allocation) instead of IPPROTO_TCP (6) ipv6_gro_complete() isnt able to call ops->gro_complete() [ tcp6_gro_complete() ] Fix this by moving proto in NAPI_GRO_CB() and getting rid of IPV6_GRO_CB Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

6a32e4f9 made the vlan code skip marking vlan-tagged frames for not locally configured vlans as PACKET_OTHERHOST if there was an rx_handler, as the rx_handler could cause the frame to be received on a different (virtual) vlan-capable interface where that vlan might be configured. As rx_handlers do not necessarily return RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, this could cause frames for unknown vlans to be delivered to the protocol stack as if they had been received untagged. For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached, macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those are completely unusable on the underlying interface. The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards, before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether there is an rx_handler or not.

Current GRO can hold packets in gro_list for almost unlimited time, in case napi->poll() handler consumes its budget over and over. In this case, napi_complete()/napi_gro_flush() are not called. Another problem is that gro_list is flushed in non friendly way : We scan the list and complete packets in the reverse order. (youngest packets first, oldest packets last) This defeats priorities that sender could have cooked. Since GRO currently only store TCP packets, we dont really notice the bug because of retransmits, but this behavior can add unexpected latencies, particularly on mice flows clamped by elephant flows. This patch makes sure no packet can stay more than 1 ms in queue, and only in stress situations. It also complete packets in the right order to minimize latencies.

Marvell 88E8001 on an ASUS P5NSLI motherboard is unable to send/receive packets on a system with >4gb ram unless a 32bit DMA mask is used. This issue has been around for years and a fix was sent 3.5 years ago, but there was some debate as to whether it should instead be fixed as a PCI quirk. http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg88670.html However, 18 months later a similar workaround was introduced for another chipset exhibiting the same problem. http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg142287.htmlSigned-off-by: Graham Gower <graham.gower@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jan Ceuleers <jan.ceuleers@computer.org> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

When a local tool like tracepath tries to send packets bigger than the device mtu, we create a nh exeption and set the pmtu to device mtu. The device mtu does not expire, so check if the device mtu is smaller than the reported pmtu and don't crerate a nh exeption in that case.

Steffen Klassert authored
Some protocols, like IPsec still cache routes. So we need to invalidate the old route on pmtu events to avoid the reuse of stale routes. We also need to update the mtu and expire time of the route if we already use a nh exception route, otherwise we ignore newly learned pmtu values after the first expiration. With this patch we always invalidate or update the route on pmtu events. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Before accessing skb first fragment, better make sure there is one. This is probably not needed for old kernels, since an ethernet frame cannot contain only an ethernet header, but the recent GRO addition to tunnels makes this patch needed. Also skb_gro_reset_offset() can be static, it actually allows compiler to inline it.

The retry loop in neigh_resolve_output() and neigh_connected_output() call dev_hard_header() with out reseting the skb to network_header. This causes the retry to fail with skb_under_panic.
