can: remove obsolete version strings

2020-10-12T08:06:39Z

As pointed out by Jakub Kicinski here: http://lore.kernel.org/r/20201009175751.5c54097f@kicinski-fedora-pc1c0hjn.dhcp.thefacebook.com this patch removes the obsolete version information of the different CAN protocols and the AF_CAN core module.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net

2020-09-22T23:45:34Z

Two minor conflicts: 1) net/ipv4/route.c, adding a new local variable while moving another local variable and removing it's initial assignment. 2) drivers/net/dsa/microchip/ksz9477.c, overlapping changes. One pretty prints the port mode differently, whilst another changes the driver to try and obtain the port mode from the port node rather than the switch node. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

nexthop: Convert to blocking notification chain

2020-09-15T23:31:17Z

Currently, the only listener of the nexthop notification chain is the VXLAN driver. Subsequent patches will add more listeners (e.g., device drivers such as netdevsim) that need to be able to block when processing notifications. Therefore, convert the notification chain to a blocking one. This is safe as notifications are always emitted from process context.

tcp: reflect tos value received in SYN to the socket

2020-09-10T20:15:40Z

This commit adds a new TCP feature to reflect the tos value received in SYN, and send it out on the SYN-ACK, and eventually set the tos value of the established socket with this reflected tos value. This provides a way to set the traffic class/QoS level for all traffic in the same connection to be the same as the incoming SYN request. It could be useful in data centers to provide equivalent QoS according to the incoming request. This feature is guarded by /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_reflect_tos, and is by default turned off.

netfilter: nf_tables: coalesce multiple notifications into one skbuff

2020-09-08T11:02:44Z

On x86_64, each notification results in one skbuff allocation which consumes at least 768 bytes due to the skbuff overhead. This patch coalesces several notifications into one single skbuff, so each notification consumes at least ~211 bytes, that ~3.5 times less memory consumption. As a result, this is reducing the chances to exhaust the netlink socket receive buffer. Rule of thumb is that each notification batch only contains netlink messages whose report flag is the same, nfnetlink_send() requires this to do appropriate delivery to userspace, either via unicast (echo mode) or multicast (monitor mode). The skbuff control buffer is used to annotate the report flag for later handling at the new coalescing routine. The batch skbuff notification size is NLMSG_GOODSIZE, using a larger skbuff would allow for more socket receiver buffer savings (to amortize the cost of the skbuff even more), however, going over that size might break userspace applications, so let's be conservative and stick to NLMSG_GOODSIZE.

bpf, netns: Keep a list of attached bpf_link's

2020-06-30T17:45:08Z

To support multi-prog link-based attachments for new netns attach types, we need to keep track of more than one bpf_link per attach type. Hence, convert net->bpf.links into a list, that currently can be either empty or have just one item. Instead of reusing bpf_prog_list from bpf-cgroup, we link together bpf_netns_link's themselves. This makes list management simpler as we don't have to allocate, initialize, and later release list elements. We can do this because multi-prog attachment will be available only for bpf_link, and we don't need to build a list of programs attached directly and indirectly via links. No functional changes intended.

bpf, netns: Keep attached programs in bpf_prog_array

2020-06-30T17:45:08Z

Prepare for having multi-prog attachments for new netns attach types by storing programs to run in a bpf_prog_array, which is well suited for iterating over programs and running them in sequence. After this change bpf(PROG_QUERY) may block to allocate memory in bpf_prog_array_copy_to_user() for collected program IDs. This forces a change in how we protect access to the attached program in the query callback. Because bpf_prog_array_copy_to_user() can sleep, we switch from an RCU read lock to holding a mutex that serializes updaters. Because we allow only one BPF flow_dissector program to be attached to netns at all times, the bpf_prog_array pointed by net->bpf.run_array is always either detached (null) or one element long. No functional changes intended.

bpf: Add link-based BPF program attachment to network namespace

2020-06-01T22:21:03Z

Extend bpf() syscall subcommands that operate on bpf_link, that is LINK_CREATE, LINK_UPDATE, OBJ_GET_INFO, to accept attach types tied to network namespaces (only flow dissector at the moment). Link-based and prog-based attachment can be used interchangeably, but only one can exist at a time. Attempts to attach a link when a prog is already attached directly, and the other way around, will be met with -EEXIST. Attempts to detach a program when link exists result in -EINVAL. Attachment of multiple links of same attach type to one netns is not supported with the intention to lift the restriction when a use-case presents itself. Because of that link create returns -E2BIG when trying to create another netns link, when one already exists. Link-based attachments to netns don't keep a netns alive by holding a ref to it. Instead links get auto-detached from netns when the latter is being destroyed, using a pernet pre_exit callback. When auto-detached, link lives in defunct state as long there are open FDs for it. -ENOLINK is returned if a user tries to update a defunct link. Because bpf_link to netns doesn't hold a ref to struct net, special care is taken when releasing, updating, or filling link info. The netns might be getting torn down when any of these link operations are in progress. That is why auto-detach and update/release/fill_info are synchronized by the same mutex. Also, link ops have to always check if auto-detach has not happened yet and if netns is still alive (refcnt > 0).

net: Introduce netns_bpf for BPF programs attached to netns

2020-06-01T22:21:02Z

In order to: (1) attach more than one BPF program type to netns, or (2) support attaching BPF programs to netns with bpf_link, or (3) support multi-prog attach points for netns we will need to keep more state per netns than a single pointer like we have now for BPF flow dissector program. Prepare for the above by extracting netns_bpf that is part of struct net, for storing all state related to BPF programs attached to netns. Turn flow dissector callbacks for querying/attaching/detaching a program into generic ones that operate on netns_bpf. Next patch will move the generic callbacks into their own module. This is similar to how it is organized for cgroup with cgroup_bpf.
