      selftests: net: avoid ptl lock contention in tcp_mmap · 597b01ed
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      tcp_mmap is used as a reference program for TCP rx zerocopy,
so it is important to point out some potential issues.

If multiple threads are concurrently using getsockopt(...
TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE), there is a chance the low-level mm
functions compete on shared ptl lock, if vma are arbitrary placed.

Instead of letting the mm layer place the chunks back to back,
this patch enforces an alignment so that each thread uses
a different ptl lock.

Performance measured on a 100 Gbit NIC, with 8 tcp_mmap clients
launched at the same time :

$ for f in {1..8}; do ./tcp_mmap -H 2002:a05:6608:290:: & done

In the following run, we reproduce the old behavior by requesting no alignment :

      ipmr: Fix skb headroom in ipmr_get_route(). · 7901cd97
      Guillaume Nault authored 
      In route.c, inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb() creates an skb with no
headroom. This skb is then used by inet_rtm_getroute() which may pass
it to rt_fill_info() and, from there, to ipmr_get_route(). The later
might try to reuse this skb by cloning it and prepending an IPv4
header. But since the original skb has no headroom, skb_push() triggers
skb_under_panic():

Actually the original skb used to have enough headroom, but the
reserve_skb() call was lost with the introduction of
inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb() by commit 404eb77e ("ipv4: support
sport, dport and ip_proto in RTM_GETROUTE").

We could reserve some headroom again in inet_rtm_getroute_build_skb(),
but this function shouldn't be responsible for handling the special
case of ipmr_get_route(). Let's handle that directly in
ipmr_get_route() by calling skb_realloc_headroom() instead of
skb_clone().

      net/smc: fix fastopen for non-blocking connect() · 8204df72
      Ursula Braun authored 
      FASTOPEN does not work with SMC-sockets. Since SMC allows fallback to
TCP native during connection start, the FASTOPEN setsockopts trigger
this fallback, if the SMC-socket is still in state SMC_INIT.
But if a FASTOPEN setsockopt is called after a non-blocking connect(),
this is broken, and fallback does not make sense.
This change complements
commit cd206360 ("net/smc: avoid fallback in case of non-blocking connect")
and fixes the syzbot reported problem "WARNING in smc_unhash_sk".

      bonding: symmetric ICMP transmit · df98be06
      Matteo Croce authored 
      A bonding with layer2+3 or layer3+4 hashing uses the IP addresses and the ports
to balance packets between slaves. With some network errors, we receive an ICMP
error packet by the remote host or a router. If sent by a router, the source IP
can differ from the remote host one. Additionally the ICMP protocol has no port
numbers, so a layer3+4 bonding will get a different hash than the previous one.
These two conditions could let the packet go through a different interface than
the other packets of the same flow:

    # tcpdump -qltnni veth0 |sed 's/^/0: /' &
    # tcpdump -qltnni veth1 |sed 's/^/1: /' &
    # hping3 -2 192.168.0.2 -p 9
    0: IP 192.168.0.1.2251 > 192.168.0.2.9: UDP, length 0
    1: IP 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.1: ICMP 192.168.0.2 udp port 9 unreachable, length 36
    1: IP 192.168.0.1.2252 > 192.168.0.2.9: UDP, length 0
    1: IP 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.1: ICMP 192.168.0.2 udp port 9 unreachable, length 36
    1: IP 192.168.0.1.2253 > 192.168.0.2.9: UDP, length 0
    1: IP 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.1: ICMP 192.168.0.2 udp port 9 unreachable, length 36
    0: IP 192.168.0.1.2254 > 192.168.0.2.9: UDP, length 0
    1: IP 192.168.0.2 > 192.168.0.1: ICMP 192.168.0.2 udp port 9 unreachable, length 36

An ICMP error packet contains the header of the packet which caused the network
error, so inspect it and match the flow against it, so we can send the ICMP via
the same interface of the previous packet in the flow.
Move the IP and port dissect code into a generic function bond_flow_ip() and if
we are dissecting an ICMP error packet, call it again with the adjusted offset.

    # hping3 -2 192.168.0.2 -p 9

      net: mscc: ocelot: omit error check from of_get_phy_mode · 4214fa1e
      Horatiu Vultur authored 
      The commit 0c65b2b9 ("net: of_get_phy_mode: Change API to solve
int/unit warnings") updated the function of_get_phy_mode declaration.
Now it returns an error code and in case the node doesn't contain the
property 'phy-mode' or 'phy-connection-type' it returns -EINVAL and would
set the phy_interface_t to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA.

Ocelot VSC7514 has 4 internal phys which have the phy interface
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA. So because of_get_phy_mode would assign
PHY_INTERFACE_MODE_NA to phy_mode when there is an error, there is no need
to add the error check.

Updates for v2:
 - drop error check because of_get_phy_mode already assigns phy_interface
   to PHY_INTERFACE_MODE in case of error.

2) napi_gro_receive with skb->head containing (most of) payload: 83
3) napi_gro_receive with skb->head containing all the headers: 20
4) napi_gro_receive with skb->head containing only Ethernet header: 2

With the current condition, fast GRO with the usage of
NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->frag0 is available only in the [1] case.
Packets pushed by [2] and [3] go through the 'slow' path, but
it's not a problem for them as they already contain all the needed
headers in skb->head, so pskb_may_pull() only moves skb->data.

The layout of skbs in the fourth [4] case at the moment of
dev_gro_receive() is identical to skbs that have come through [1],
as napi_frags_skb() pulls Ethernet header to skb->head. The only
difference is that the mentioned condition is always false for them,
because skb_put() and friends irreversibly alter the tail pointer.
They also go through the 'slow' path, but now every single
pskb_may_pull() in every single .gro_receive() will call the *really*
slow __pskb_pull_tail() to pull headers to head. This significantly
decreases the overall performance for no visible reasons.

The only two users of method [4] is:
* drivers/staging/qlge
* drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi (all three variants: dvm, mvm, mvm-mq)

Note that in case with wireless drivers we can't use [1]
(napi_gro_frags()) at least for now and mac80211 stack always
performs pushes and pulls anyways, so performance hit is inavoidable.

At the moment of v2.6.31 the mentioned change was necessary (that's
why I don't add the "Fixes:" tag), but it became obsolete since
skb_gro_mac_header() has gone in commit a50e233c ("net-gro:
restore frag0 optimization"), so we can simply revert the condition
in gro_reset_offset() to allow skbs from [4] go through the 'fast'
path just like in case [1].

This was tested on a 600 MHz MIPS CPU and a custom driver and this
patch gave boosts up to 40 Mbps to method [4] in both directions
comparing to net-next, which made overall performance relatively
close to [1] (without it, [4] is the slowest).

v2:

      rds: ib: update WR sizes when bringing up connection · a36e629e
      Dag Moxnes authored 
      Currently WR sizes are updated from rds_ib_sysctl_max_send_wr and
rds_ib_sysctl_max_recv_wr when a connection is shut down. As a result,
a connection being down while rds_ib_sysctl_max_send_wr or
rds_ib_sysctl_max_recv_wr are updated, will not update the sizes when
it comes back up.

Move resizing of WRs to rds_ib_setup_qp so that connections will be setup
with the most current WR sizes.

      This driver forgets to free allocated netdev in remove like
what is done in probe failure.
Add the free to fix it.

      Merge branch 'bnx2x-Remove-function-casts' · f92e88db

====================
bnx2x: Remove function casts

In order to make the entire kernel usable under Clang's Control Flow
Integrity protections, function prototype casts need to be avoided
because this will trip CFI checks at runtime (i.e. a mismatch between
the caller's expected function prototype and the destination function's
prototype). Many of these cases can be found with -Wcast-function-type,
which found that bnx2x had a bunch of needless (or at least confusing)
function casts. This series removes them all.
