Linux tunnels were written before RFC6040 and therefore never implemented the corner case of ECN getting set in the outer header and the inner header not being ready for it. Section 4.2. Default Tunnel Egress Behaviour. o If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT, the decapsulator MUST NOT propagate any other ECN codepoint onwards. This is because the inner Not-ECT marking is set by transports that rely on dropped packets as an indication of congestion and would not understand or respond to any other ECN codepoint [RFC4774]. Specifically: * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is CE, the decapsulator MUST drop the packet. * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is Not-ECT, ECT(0), or ECT(1), the decapsulator MUST forward the outgoing packet with the ECN field cleared to Not-ECT. This patch moves the ECN decap logic out of the individual tunnels into a common place. It also adds logging to allow detecting broken systems that set ECN bits incorrectly when tunneling (or an intermediate router might be changing the header). Overloads rx_frame_error to keep track of ECN related error. Thanks to Chris Wright who caught this while reviewing the new VXLAN tunnel. This code was tested by injecting faulty logic in other end GRE to send incorrectly encapsulated packets. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

GRE driver incorrectly uses zero as a flag value. Zero is a perfectly valid value for key, and the tunnel should match packets with no key only with tunnels created without key, and vice versa. This is a slightly visible change since previously it might be possible to construct a working tunnel that sent key 0 and received only because of the key wildcard of zero. I.e the sender sent key of zero, but tunnel was defined without key. Note: using gre key 0 requires iproute2 utilities v3.2 or later. The original utility code was broken as well.

This patch adds a new common code routine to upgrade an adapter's firmware. This routine handles all of the complexities of working with the the existing adapter firmware in order to quiesce the adapter and uP, etc. For an automatic upgrade it will send a HELLO command to check if cxgb4 want/can upgrade firmware, i.e. if cxgb4 is MASTER and has newer firmware that it wants to load and call the new common code routine t4_fw_upgrade. Note that it should not issue a RESET command after a successful firmware upgrade.

If a card had already been initialized, on reloading cxgb4 driver firmware required an upgrade but the upgrade did not happen. In that case a mailbox timeout would occur during T4 configuration file stuff. The fix is to let the caller know the firmware was not upgraded so a reset would be issued before starting the T4 config stuff.

Starting with T4 firmware version 1.3.11.0 the firmware now supports device configuration via a Firmware Configuration File. The Firmware Configuration File was primarily developed in order to centralize all of the configuration, resource allocation, etc. for Unified Wire operation where multiple Physical / Virtual Function Drivers would be using a T4 adapter simultaneously. The Firmware Configuration file can live in three locations as shown below in order of precedence. 1) User defined configuration file: /lib/firmware/cxgb4/t4-config.txt 2) Factory Default configuration file written to FLASH within the manufacturing process. 3) Hardwired driver configuration.

SKF_AD_ALU_XOR_X has been added a while ago, but as an 'ancillary' operation that is invoked through a negative offset in K within BPF load operations. Since BPF_MOD has recently been added, BPF_XOR should also be part of the common ALU operations. Removing SKF_AD_ALU_XOR_X might not be an option since this is exposed to user space.

We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg() operations. This page is used to build fragments for skbs. Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent) But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit page allocator more than wanted. This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages, if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure. (up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86) This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device, but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled. Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments, but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536 Successfully tested on various ethernet devices.

This is primarily to address transmission timeout occurrences, when multiple H/W Tx queues are being used concurrently. Because in the priority scheduling mode the controller does not service the Tx queues equally (but in ascending index order), Tx timeouts are being triggered rightaway for a basic test with multiple simultaneous connections like: iperf -c <server_ip> -n 100M -P 8 resulting in kernel trace: NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1 (fsl-gianfar): transmit queue <X> timed out ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at net/sched/sch_generic.c:255 ... and controller reset during intense traffic, and possibly further complications. This patch changes the default H/W Tx scheduling setting (TXSCHED) for multi-queue devices, from priority scheduling mode to a weighted round robin mode with equal weights for all H/W Tx queues, and addresses the issue above.

loopback current mtu of 16436 bytes allows no more than 3 MSS TCP segments per frame, or 48 Kbytes. Changing mtu to 64K allows TCP stack to build large frames and significantly reduces stack overhead. Performance boost on bulk TCP transferts can be up to 30 %, partly because we now have one ACK message for two 64KB segments, and a lower probability of hitting /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_reordering default limit.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== This patchset contains updates for your net-next tree, they are: * Mostly fixes for the recently pushed IPv6 NAT support: - Fix crash while removing nf_nat modules from Patrick McHardy. - Fix unbalanced rcu_read_unlock from Ulrich Weber. - Merge NETMAP and REDIRECT into one single xt_target module, from Jan Engelhardt. - Fix Kconfig for IPv6 NAT, which allows inconsistent configurations, from myself. * Updates for ipset, all of the from Jozsef Kadlecsik: - Add the new "nomatch" option to obtain reverse set matching. - Support for /0 CIDR in hash:net,iface set type. - One non-critical fix for a rare crash due to pass really wrong configuration parameters. - Coding style cleanups. - Sparse fixes. - Add set revision supported via modinfo.i * One extension for the xt_time match, to support matching during the transition between two days with one single rule, from Florian Westphal. * Fix maximum packet length supported by nfnetlink_queue and add NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute, from myself. You can notice that this batch contains a couple of fixes that may go to 3.6-rc but I don't consider them critical to push them: * The ipset fix for the /0 cidr case, which is triggered with one inconsistent command line invocation of ipset. * The nfnetlink_queue maximum packet length supported since it requires the new NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute to provide a full workaround for the described problem. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch adds the NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute that allows us to know what is the real packet size from user-space (even if we decided to retrieve just a few bytes from the packet instead of all of it). Security software that inspects packets should always check for this new attribute to make sure that it is inspecting the entire packet. This also helps to provide a workaround for the problem described in: http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=134519473212536&w=2 Original idea from Florian Westphal.

Pablo Neira Ayuso authored
The packets that we send via NFQUEUE are encapsulated in the NFQA_PAYLOAD attribute. The length of the packet in userspace is obtained via attr->nla_len field. This field contains the size of the Netlink attribute header plus the packet length. If the maximum packet length is specified, ie. 65535 bytes, and packets in the range of (65531,65535] are sent to userspace, the attr->nla_len overflows and it reports bogus lengths to the application. To fix this, this patch limits the maximum packet length to 65531 bytes. If larger packet length is specified, the packet that we send to user-space is truncated to 65531 bytes. To support 65535 bytes packets, we have to revisit the idea of the 32-bits Netlink attribute length.

This patch allows the FTP helper to pickup the sequence tracking from the first packet seen. This is useful to fix the breakage of the first FTP command after the failover while using conntrackd to synchronize states. The seq_aft_nl_num field in struct nf_ct_ftp_info has been shrinked to 16-bits (enough for what it does), so we can use the remaining 16-bits to store the flags while using the same size for the private FTP helper data.

Currently, if you want to do something like: "match Monday, starting 23:00, for two hours" You need two rules, one for Mon 23:00 to 0:00 and one for Tue 0:00-1:00. The rule: --weekdays Mo --timestart 23:00 --timestop 01:00 looks correct, but it will first match on monday from midnight to 1 a.m. and then again for another hour from 23:00 onwards. This permits userspace to explicitly ignore the day transition and match for a single, continuous time period instead.
