2014-06-26net: Use netlink_ns_capable to verify the permisions of netlink messagesEric W. Biederman3-5/+5
[ Upstream commit 90f62cf30a78721641e08737bda787552428061e ] It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that privileged executable did not intend to do. To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls. Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

2013-09-14net_sched: restore "linklayer atm" handlingJesper Dangaard Brouer3-0/+55
[ Upstream commit 8a8e3d84b1719a56f9151909e80ea6ebc5b8e318 ] commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates") broke the "linklayer atm" handling. tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table which is send to the kernel. No direct parameter were transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting. The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates") removed the use of the rate table system. To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects the linklayer by parsing the rate table. It also supports future versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but only using the lower 4 bits of this field. Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM detect. Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at 1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have been more broken than we first realized.

2013-07-28pkt_sched: sch_qfq: remove a source of high packet delay/jitterPaolo Valente1-29/+56
[ Upstream commit 87f40dd6ce7042caca0b3b557e8923127f51f902 ] QFQ+ inherits from QFQ a design choice that may cause a high packet delay/jitter and a severe short-term unfairness. As QFQ, QFQ+ uses a special quantity, the system virtual time, to track the service provided by the ideal system it approximates. When a packet is dequeued, this quantity must be incremented by the size of the packet, divided by the sum of the weights of the aggregates waiting to be served. Tracking this sum correctly is a non-trivial task, because, to preserve tight service guarantees, the decrement of this sum must be delayed in a special way [1]: this sum can be decremented only after that its value would decrease also in the ideal system approximated by QFQ+. For efficiency, QFQ+ keeps track only of the 'instantaneous' weight sum, increased and decreased immediately as the weight of an aggregate changes, and as an aggregate is created or destroyed (which, in its turn, happens as a consequence of some class being created/destroyed/changed). However, to avoid the problems caused to service guarantees by these immediate decreases, QFQ+ increments the system virtual time using the maximum value allowed for the weight sum, 2^10, in place of the dynamic, instantaneous value. The instantaneous value of the weight sum is used only to check whether a request of weight increase or a class creation can be satisfied. Unfortunately, the problems caused by this choice are worse than the temporary degradation of the service guarantees that may occur, when a class is changed or destroyed, if the instantaneous value of the weight sum was used to update the system virtual time. In fact, the fraction of the link bandwidth guaranteed by QFQ+ to each aggregate is equal to the ratio between the weight of the aggregate and the sum of the weights of the competing aggregates. The packet delay guaranteed to the aggregate is instead inversely proportional to the guaranteed bandwidth. By using the maximum possible value, and not the actual value of the weight sum, QFQ+ provides each aggregate with the worst possible service guarantees, and not with service guarantees related to the actual set of competing aggregates. To see the consequences of this fact, consider the following simple example. Suppose that only the following aggregates are backlogged, i.e., that only the classes in the following aggregates have packets to transmit: one aggregate with weight 10, say A, and ten aggregates with weight 1, say B1, B2, ..., B10. In particular, suppose that these aggregates are always backlogged. Given the weight distribution, the smoothest and fairest service order would be: A B1 A B2 A B3 A B4 A B5 A B6 A B7 A B8 A B9 A B10 A B1 A B2 ... QFQ+ would provide exactly this optimal service if it used the actual value for the weight sum instead of the maximum possible value, i.e., 11 instead of 2^10. In contrast, since QFQ+ uses the latter value, it serves aggregates as follows (easy to prove and to reproduce experimentally): A B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6 B7 B8 B9 B10 A A A A A A A A A A B1 B2 ... B10 A A ... By replacing 10 with N in the above example, and by increasing N, one can increase at will the maximum packet delay and the jitter experienced by the classes in aggregate A. This patch addresses this issue by just using the above 'instantaneous' value of the weight sum, instead of the maximum possible value, when updating the system virtual time. After the instantaneous weight sum is decreased, QFQ+ may deviate from the ideal service for a time interval in the order of the time to serve one maximum-size packet for each backlogged class. The worst-case extent of the deviation exhibited by QFQ+ during this time interval [1] is basically the same as of the deviation described above (but, without this patch, QFQ+ suffers from such a deviation all the time). Finally, this patch modifies the comment to the function qfq_slot_insert, to make it coherent with the fact that the weight sum used by QFQ+ can now be lower than the maximum possible value. [1] P.

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: remove a useless invocation of qfq_update_eligiblePaolo Valente1-2/+0
QFQ+ can select for service only 'eligible' aggregates, i.e., aggregates that would have started to be served also in the emulated ideal system. As a consequence, for QFQ+ to be work conserving, at least one of the active aggregates must be eligible when it is time to choose the next aggregate to serve. The set of eligible aggregates is updated through the function qfq_update_eligible(), which does guarantee that, after its invocation, at least one of the active aggregates is eligible. Because of this property, this function is invoked in qfq_deactivate_agg() to guarantee that at least one of the active aggregates is still eligible after an aggregate has been deactivated. In particular, the critical case is when there are other active aggregates, but the aggregate being deactivated happens to be the only one eligible. However, this precaution is not needed for QFQ+ to be work conserving, because update_eligible() is always invoked also at the beginning of qfq_choose_next_agg(). This patch removes the additional invocation of update_eligible() in qfq_deactivate_agg().

QFQ+ serves only eligible aggregates, hence the aggregate currently in service is eligible. As a consequence, to decide whether there is no eligible aggregate, QFQ+ must also check whether there is no aggregate in service.

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: prevent budget from wrapping around after a dequeuePaolo Valente1-1/+9
Aggregate budgets are computed so as to guarantee that, after an aggregate has been selected for service, that aggregate has enough budget to serve at least one maximum-size packet for the classes it contains. For this reason, after a new aggregate has been selected for service, its next packet is immediately dequeued, without any further control. The maximum packet size for a class, lmax, can be changed through qfq_change_class(). In case the user sets lmax to a lower value than the the size of some of the still-to-arrive packets, QFQ+ will automatically push up lmax as it enqueues these packets. This automatic push up is likely to happen with TSO/GSO. In any case, if lmax is assigned a lower value than the size of some of the packets already enqueued for the class, then the following problem may occur: the size of the next packet to dequeue for the class may happen to be larger than lmax, after the aggregate to which the class belongs has been just selected for service. In this case, even the budget of the aggregate, which is an unsigned value, may be lower than the size of the next packet to dequeue. After dequeueing this packet and subtracting its size from the budget, the latter would wrap around. This fix prevents the budget from wrapping around after any packet dequeue.

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: serve activated aggregates immediately if the scheduler ↵Paolo Valente1-14/+22
is empty If no aggregate is in service, then the function qfq_dequeue() does not dequeue any packet. For this reason, to guarantee QFQ+ to be work conserving, a just-activated aggregate must be set as in service immediately if it happens to be the only active aggregate. This is done by the function qfq_enqueue(). Unfortunately, the function qfq_add_to_agg(), used to add a class to an aggregate, does not perform this important additional operation. In particular, if: 1) qfq_add_to_agg() is invoked to complete the move of a class from a source aggregate, becoming, for this move, inactive, to a destination aggregate, becoming instead active, and 2) the destination aggregate becomes the only active aggregate, then this aggregate is not however set as in service. QFQ+ remains then in a non-work-conserving state until a new invocation of qfq_enqueue() recovers the situation. This fix solves the problem by moving the logic for setting an aggregate as in service directly into the function qfq_activate_agg(). Hence, from whatever point qfq_activate_aggregate() is invoked, QFQ+ remains work conserving. Since the more-complex logic of this new version of activate_aggregate() is not necessary, in qfq_dequeue(), to reschedule an aggregate that finishes its budget, then the aggregate is now rescheduled by invoking directly the functions needed.

2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: fix the update of eligible-group setsPaolo Valente1-1/+1
Between two invocations of make_eligible, the system virtual time may happen to grow enough that, in its binary representation, a bit with higher order than 31 flips. This happens especially with TSO/GSO. Before this fix, the mask used in make_eligible was computed as (1UL<<index_of_last_flipped_bit)-1, whose value is well defined on a 64-bit architecture, because index_of_flipped_bit <= 63, but is in general undefined on a 32-bit architecture if index_of_flipped_bit > 31. The fix just replaces 1UL with 1ULL. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@unimore.it> Reviewed-by: Fabio Checconi <fchecconi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-03-06pkt_sched: sch_qfq: properly cap timestamps in charge_actual_servicePaolo Valente1-2/+11
QFQ+ schedules the active aggregates in a group using a bucket list (one list per group). The bucket in which each aggregate is inserted depends on the aggregate's timestamps, and the number of buckets in a group is enough to accomodate the possible (range of) values of the timestamps of all the aggregates in the group. For this property to hold, timestamps must however be computed correctly. One necessary condition for computing timestamps correctly is that the number of bits dequeued for each aggregate, while the aggregate is in service, does not exceed the maximum budget budgetmax assigned to the aggregate. For each aggregate, budgetmax is proportional to the number of classes in the aggregate. If the number of classes of the aggregate is decreased through qfq_change_class(), then budgetmax is decreased automatically as well. Problems may occur if the aggregate is in service when budgetmax is decreased, because the current remaining budget of the aggregate and/or the service already received by the aggregate may happen to be larger than the new value of budgetmax. In this case, when the aggregate is eventually deselected and its timestamps are updated, the aggregate may happen to have received an amount of service larger than budgetmax. This may cause the aggregate to be assigned a higher virtual finish time than the maximum acceptable value for the last bucket in the bucket list of the group. This fix introduces a cap that addresses this issue. Signed-off-by: Paolo Valente <paolo.valente@unimore.it> Reviewed-by: Fabio Checconi <fchecconi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin6-45/+30
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually. The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here: @@ iterator name hlist_for_each_entry, hlist_for_each_entry_continue, hlist_for_each_entry_from, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu, hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh, for_each_busy_worker, ax25_uid_for_each, ax25_for_each, inet_bind_bucket_for_each, sctp_for_each_hentry, sk_for_each, sk_for_each_rcu, sk_for_each_from, sk_for_each_safe, sk_for_each_bound, hlist_for_each_entry_safe, hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu, nr_neigh_for_each, nr_neigh_for_each_safe, nr_node_for_each, nr_node_for_each_safe, for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp, for_each_gfn_sp, for_each_host; type T; expression a,c,d,e; identifier b; statement S; @@ -T b; <+... when != b ( hlist_for_each_entry(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_from(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh(a, - b, c, d) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh(a, - b, c) S | for_each_busy_worker(a, c, - b, d) S | ax25_uid_for_each(a, - b, c) S | ax25_for_each(a, - b, c) S | inet_bind_bucket_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sctp_for_each_hentry(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_rcu(a, - b, c) S | sk_for_each_from -(a, b) +(a) S + sk_for_each_from(a) S | sk_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | sk_for_each_bound(a, - b, c) S | hlist_for_each_entry_safe(a, - b, c, d, e) S | hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_neigh_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | nr_node_for_each(a, - b, c) S | nr_node_for_each_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_sp(a, c, d) S | - for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d, b) S + for_each_gfn_indirect_valid_sp(a, c, d) S | for_each_host(a, - b, c) S | for_each_host_safe(a, - b, c, d) S | for_each_mesh_entry(a, - b, c, d) S ) ...+> [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus change from net/ipv4/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: drop bogus hunk from net/ipv6/raw.c] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] [akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix warnings] [akpm@linux-foudnation.org: redo intrusive kvm changes] Tested-by: Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.
