Currently, at xdp_adjust_tail_kern.c, MAX_PCKT_SIZE is limited to 600. To make this size flexible, static global variable 'max_pcktsz' is added. By updating new packet size from the user space, xdp_adjust_tail_kern.o will use this value as a new max packet size. This static global variable can be accesible from .data section with bpf_object__find_map* from user space, since it is considered as internal map (accessible with .bss/.data/.rodata suffix). If no '-P <MAX_PCKT_SIZE>' option is used, the size of maximum packet will be 600 as a default. For clarity, change the helper to fetch map from 'bpf_map__next' to 'bpf_object__find_map_fd_by_name'. Also, changed the way to test prog_fd, map_fd from '!= 0' to '< 0', since fd could be 0 when stdin is closed. Signed-off-by: Daniel T.

Stanislav Fomichev says: ==================== While having a per-net-ns flow dissector programs is convenient for testing, security-wise it's better to have only one vetted global flow dissector implementation. Let's have a convention that when BPF flow dissector is installed in the root namespace, child namespaces can't override it. The intended use-case is to attach global BPF flow dissector early from the init scripts/systemd. Attaching global dissector is prohibited if some non-root namespace already has flow dissector attached. Also, attaching to non-root namespace is prohibited when there is flow dissector attached to the root namespace. v3: * drop extra check and empty line (Andrii Nakryiko) v2: * EPERM -> EEXIST (Song Liu) * Make sure we don't have dissector attached to non-root namespaces when attaching the global one (Andrii Nakryiko) ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Always use init_net flow dissector BPF program if it's attached and fall back to the per-net namespace one. Also, deny installing new programs if there is already one attached to the root namespace. Users can still detach their BPF programs, but can't attach any new ones (-EEXIST).

As part of libbpf in 5e61f270 ("libbpf: stop enforcing kern_version, populate it for users") non-LIBBPF_API __bpf_object__open_xattr() API was removed from libbpf.h header. This broke bpftool, which relied on that function. This patch fixes the build by switching to newly added bpf_object__open_file() which provides the same capabilities, but is official and future-proof API. v1->v2: - fix prog_type shadowing (Stanislav).

Current Makefile dependency chain is not strict enough and allows test_attach_probe.o to be built before test_progs's prog_test/attach_probe.o is built, which leads to assembler complaining about missing included binary. This patch is a minimal fix to fix this issue by enforcing that test_attach_probe.o (BPF object file) is built before prog_tests/attach_probe.c is attempted to be compiled.

Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== This patch set adds ability to auto-generate list of BPF helper definitions. It relies on existing scripts/bpf_helpers_doc.py and include/uapi/linux/bpf.h having a well-defined set of comments. bpf_helper_defs.h contains all BPF helper signatures which stay in sync with latest bpf.h UAPI. This auto-generated header is included from bpf_helpers.h, while all previously hand-written BPF helper definitions are simultaneously removed in patch #3. The end result is less manually maintained and redundant boilerplate code, while also more consistent and well-documented set of BPF helpers. Generated helper definitions are completely independent from a specific bpf.h on a target system, because it doesn't use BPF_FUNC_xxx enums. v3->v4: - instead of libbpf's Makefile, integrate with selftest/bpf's Makefile (Alexei); v2->v3: - delete bpf_helper_defs.h properly (Alexei); v1->v2: - add bpf_helper_defs.h to .gitignore and `make clean` (Alexei). ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Andrii Nakryiko says: ==================== Add bpf_object__open_file() and bpf_object__open_mem() APIs that use a new approach to providing future-proof non-ABI-breaking API changes. It relies on APIs accepting optional self-describing "opts" struct, containing its own size, filled out and provided by potentially outdated (as well as newer-than-libbpf) user application. A set of internal helper macros (OPTS_VALID, OPTS_HAS, and OPTS_GET) streamline and simplify a graceful handling forward and backward compatibility for user applications dynamically linked against different versions of libbpf shared library. Users of libbpf are provided with convenience macro LIBBPF_OPTS that takes care of populating correct structure size and zero-initializes options struct, which helps avoid obscure issues of unitialized padding. Uninitialized padding in a struct might turn into garbage-populated new fields understood by future versions of libbpf. Patch #1 removes enforcement of kern_version in libbpf and always populates correct one on behalf of users. Patch #2 defines necessary infrastructure for options and two new open APIs relying on it. Patch #3 fixes bug in bpf_object__name(). Patch #4 switches two of test_progs' tests to use new APIs as a validation that they work as expected. v2->v3: - fix LIBBPF_OPTS() to ensure zero-initialization of padded bytes; - pass through name override and relaxed maps flag for open_file() (Toke); - fix bpf_object__name() to actually return object name; - don't bother parsing and verifying version section (John); v1->v2: - use better approach for tracking last field in opts struct; - convert few tests to new APIs for validation; - fix bug with using offsetof(last_field) instead of offsetofend(last_field). ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>

Andrii Nakryiko authored
Add new set of bpf_object__open APIs using new approach to optional parameters extensibility allowing simpler ABI compatibility approach. This patch demonstrates an approach to implementing libbpf APIs that makes it easy to extend existing APIs with extra optional parameters in such a way, that ABI compatibility is preserved without having to do symbol versioning and generating lots of boilerplate code to handle it. To facilitate succinct code for working with options, add OPTS_VALID, OPTS_HAS, and OPTS_GET macros that hide all the NULL, size, and zero checks. Additionally, newly added libbpf APIs are encouraged to follow similar pattern of having all mandatory parameters as formal function parameters and always have optional (NULL-able) xxx_opts struct, which should always have real struct size as a first field and the rest would be optional parameters added over time, which tune the behavior of existing API, if specified by user.

Kernel version enforcement for kprobes/kretprobes was removed from 5.0 kernel in 6c4fc209 ("bpf: remove useless version check for prog load"). Since then, BPF programs were specifying SEC("version") just to please libbpf. We should stop enforcing this in libbpf, if even kernel doesn't care. Furthermore, libbpf now will pre-populate current kernel version of the host system, in case we are still running on old kernel. This patch also removes __bpf_object__open_xattr from libbpf.h, as nothing in libbpf is relying on having it in that header. That function was never exported as LIBBPF_API and even name suggests its internal version. So this should be safe to remove, as it doesn't break ABI.

Due to a quirky C syntax of declaring pointers to array or function prototype, existing __type() macro doesn't work with map key/value types that are array or function prototype. One has to create a typedef first and use it to specify key/value type for a BPF map. By using typeof(), pointer to type is now handled uniformly for all kinds of types. Convert one of self-tests as a demonstration.

Replace 'cmp reg, 0' with 'test reg, reg' for comparisons against zero. Saves 1 byte of instruction encoding per occurrence. The flag results of test 'reg, reg' are identical to 'cmp reg, 0' in all cases except for AF which we don't use/care about. In terms of macro-fusibility in combination with a subsequent conditional jump instruction, both have the same properties for the jumps used in the JIT translation. For example, same JITed Cilium program can shrink a bit from e.g. 12,455 to 12,317 bytes as tests with 0 are used quite frequently.

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== net: introduce alternative names for network interfaces In the past, there was repeatedly discussed the IFNAMSIZ (16) limit for netdevice name length. Now when we have PF and VF representors with port names like "pfXvfY", it became quite common to hit this limit: 0123456789012345 enp131s0f1npf0vf6 enp131s0f1npf0vf22 Udev cannot rename these interfaces out-of-the-box and user needs to create custom rules to handle them. Also, udev has multiple schemes of netdev names. From udev code: * Type of names: * b<number> - BCMA bus core number * c<bus_id> - bus id of a grouped CCW or CCW device, * with all leading zeros stripped [s390] * o<index>[n<phys_port_name>|d<dev_port>] * - on-board device index number * s<slot>[f<function>][n<phys_port_name>|d<dev_port>] * - hotplug slot index number * x<MAC> - MAC address * [P<domain>]p<bus>s<slot>[f<function>][n<phys_port_name>|d<dev_port>] * - PCI geographical location * [P<domain>]p<bus>s<slot>[f<function>][u<port>][..][c<config>][i<interface>] * - USB port number chain * v<slot> - VIO slot number (IBM PowerVM) * a<vendor><model>i<instance> - Platform bus ACPI instance id * i<addr>n<phys_port_name> - Netdevsim bus address and port name One device can be often renamed by multiple patterns at the same time (e.g. pci address/mac). This patchset introduces alternative names for network interfaces. Main goal is to: 1) Overcome the IFNAMSIZ limitation (altname limitation is 128 bytes) 2) Allow to have multiple names at the same time (multiple udev patterns) 3) Allow to use alternative names as handle for commands The patchset introduces two new commands to add/delete list of properties. Currently only alternative names are implemented but the ifrastructure could be easily extended later on. This is very similar to the list of vlan and tunnels being added/deleted to/from bridge ports.

The same for-loop check for the LINK_LIST_READY bit of an OOB_CTRL register is used in several places. Factor these out into a single function to reduce the lines of code.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Sanity check URB networking device parameters to avoid divide by zero, from Oliver Neukum. 2) Disable global multicast filter in NCSI, otherwise LLDP and IPV6 don't work properly. Longer term this needs a better fix tho. From Vijay Khemka. 3) Small fixes to selftests (use ping when ping6 is not present, etc.) from David Ahern. 4) Bring back rt_uses_gateway member of struct rtable, it's semantics were not well understood and trying to remove it broke things. From David Ahern. 5) Move usbnet snaity checking, ignore endpoints with invalid wMaxPacketSize. From Bjørn Mork. 6) Missing Kconfig deps for sja1105 driver, from Mao Wenan. 7) Various small fixes to the mlx5 DR steering code, from Alaa Hleihel, Alex Vesker, and Yevgeny Kliteynik 8) Missing CAP_NET_RAW checks in various places, from Ori Nimron. 9) Fix crash when removing sch_cbs entry while offloading is enabled, from Vinicius Costa Gomes. 10) Signedness bug fixes, generally in looking at the result given by of_get_phy_mode() and friends. From Dan Crapenter. 11) Disable preemption around BPF_PROG_RUN() calls, from Eric Dumazet. 12) Don't create VRF ipv6 rules if ipv6 is disabled, from David Ahern. 13) Fix quantization code in tcp_bbr, from Kevin Yang. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net: (127 commits) net: tap: clean up an indentation issue nfp: abm: fix memory leak in nfp_abm_u32_knode_replace tcp: better handle TCP_USER_TIMEOUT in SYN_SENT state sk_buff: drop all skb extensions on free and skb scrubbing tcp_bbr: fix quantization code to not raise cwnd if not probing bandwidth mlxsw: spectrum_flower: Fail in case user specifies multiple mirror actions Documentation: Clarify trap's description mlxsw: spectrum: Clear VLAN filters during port initialization net: ena: clean up indentation issue NFC: st95hf: clean up indentation issue net: phy: micrel: add Asym Pause workaround for KSZ9021 net: socionext: ave: Avoid using netdev_err() before calling register_netdev() ptp: correctly disable flags on old ioctls lib: dimlib: fix help text typos net: dsa: microchip: Always set regmap stride to 1 nfp: flower: fix memory leak in nfp_flower_spawn_vnic_reprs nfp: flower: prevent memory leak in nfp_flower_spawn_phy_reprs net/sched: Set default of CONFIG_NET_TC_SKB_EXT to N vrf: Do not attempt to create IPv6 mcast rule if IPv6 is disabled net: sched: sch_sfb: don't call qdisc_put() while holding tree lock ...

Merge hugepage allocation updates from David Rientjes: "We (mostly Linus, Andrea, and myself) have been discussing offlist how to implement a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages on NUMA platforms. With these reverts in place, the page allocator will happily allocate a remote hugepage immediately rather than try to make a local hugepage available. This incurs a substantial performance degradation when memory compaction would have otherwise made a local hugepage available. This series reverts those reverts and attempts to propose a more sane default allocation strategy specifically for hugepages. Andrea acknowledges this is likely to fix the swap storms that he originally reported that resulted in the patches that removed __GFP_THISNODE from hugepage allocations. The immediate goal is to return 5.3 to the behavior the kernel has implemented over the past several years so that remote hugepages are not immediately allocated when local hugepages could have been made available because the increased access latency is untenable. The next goal is to introduce a sane default allocation strategy for hugepages allocations in general regardless of the configuration of the system so that we prevent thrashing of local memory when compaction is unlikely to succeed and can prefer remote hugepages over remote native pages when the local node is low on memory." Note on timing: this reverts the hugepage VM behavior changes that got introduced fairly late in the 5.3 cycle, and that fixed a huge performance regression for certain loads that had been around since 4.18. Andrea had this note: "The regression of 4.18 was that it was taking hours to start a VM where 3.10 was only taking a few seconds, I reported all the details on lkml when it was finally tracked down in August 2018. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20180820032640.9896-2-aarcange@redhat.com/ __GFP_THISNODE in MADV_HUGEPAGE made the above enterprise vfio workload degrade like in the "current upstream" above. And it still would have been that bad as above until 5.3-rc5" where the bad behavior ends up happening as you fill up a local node, and without that change, you'd get into the nasty swap storm behavior due to compaction working overtime to make room for more memory on the nodes. As a result 5.3 got the two performance fix reverts in rc5. However, David Rientjes then noted that those performance fixes in turn regressed performance for other loads - although not quite to the same degree. He suggested reverting the reverts and instead replacing them with two small changes to how hugepage allocations are done (patch descriptions rephrased by me): - "avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed": just admit that the allocation failed when you're trying to allocate a huge-page and compaction wasn't successful. - "allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised": when that node-local huge-page allocation failed, retry without forcing the local node. but by then I judged it too late to replace the fixes for a 5.3 release. So 5.3 was released with behavior that harked back to the pre-4.18 logic. But now we're in the merge window for 5.4, and we can see if this alternate model fixes not just the horrendous swap storm behavior, but also restores the performance regression that the late reverts caused. Fingers crossed. * emailed patches from David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com>: mm, page_alloc: allow hugepage fallback to remote nodes when madvised mm, page_alloc: avoid expensive reclaim when compaction may not succeed Revert "Revert "Revert "mm, thp: consolidate THP gfp handling into alloc_hugepage_direct_gfpmask"" Revert "Revert "mm, thp: restore node-local hugepage allocations""

For systems configured to always try hard to allocate transparent hugepages (thp defrag setting of "always") or for memory that has been explicitly madvised to MADV_HUGEPAGE, it is often better to fallback to remote memory to allocate the hugepage if the local allocation fails first. The point is to allow the initial call to __alloc_pages_node() to attempt to defragment local memory to make a hugepage available, if possible, rather than immediately fallback to remote memory. Local hugepages will always have a better access latency than remote (huge)pages, so an attempt to make a hugepage available locally is always preferred. If memory compaction cannot be successful locally, however, it is likely better to fallback to remote memory. This could take on two forms: either allow immediate fallback to remote memory or do per-zone watermark checks. It would be possible to fallback only when per-zone watermarks fail for order-0 memory, since that would require local reclaim for all subsequent faults so remote huge allocation is likely better than thrashing the local zone for large workloads. In this case, it is assumed that because the system is configured to try hard to allocate hugepages or the vma is advised to explicitly want to try hard for hugepages that remote allocation is better when local allocation and memory compaction have both failed.
