* net-tun: restructure tun_do_read for better sleep/wakeup efficiencyXi Wang2014-05-211-38/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tun_do_read always adds current thread to wait queue, even if a packet is ready to read. This is inefficient because both sleeper and waker want to acquire the wait queue spin lock when packet rate is high. We restructure the read function and use common kernel networking routines to handle receive, sleep and wakeup. With the change available packets are checked first before the reading thread is added to the wait queue. Ran performance tests with the following configuration: - my packet generator -> tap1 -> br0 -> tap0 -> my packet consumer - sender pinned to one core and receiver pinned to another core - sender send small UDP packets (64 bytes total) as fast as it can - sandy bridge cores - throughput are receiver side goodput numbers The results are baseline: 731k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.50 cpus changed: 783k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.53 cpus The performance difference is largely determined by packet rate and inter-cpu communication cost. For example, if the sender and receiver are pinned to different cpu sockets, the results are baseline: 558k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.71 cpus changed: 690k pkts/sec, cpu utilization at 1.67 cpus Co-authored-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Xi Wang <xii@google.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

* drivers/net: Use RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) in tun.cMonam Agarwal2014-03-271-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch replaces rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) with RCU_INIT_POINTER(x, NULL) The rcu_assign_pointer() ensures that the initialization of a structure is carried out before storing a pointer to that structure. And in the case of the NULL pointer, there is no structure to initialize. So, rcu_assign_pointer(p, NULL) can be safely converted to RCU_INIT_POINTER(p, NULL) Signed-off-by: Monam Agarwal <monamagarwal123@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* tun: remove bogus hardware vlan acceleration flags from vlan_featuresFernando Luis Vazquez Cao2014-02-201-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Even though only the outer vlan tag can be HW accelerated in the transmission path, in the TUN/TAP driver vlan_features mirrors hw_features, which happens to have the NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_?TAG_TX flags set. Because of this, during packet tranmisssion through a stacked vlan device dev_hard_start_xmit, (incorrectly) assuming that the vlan device supports hardware vlan acceleration, does not add the vlan header to the skb payload and the inner vlan tags are lost (vlan_tci contains the outer vlan tag when userspace reads the packet from the tap device).

* netdevice: add queue selection fallback handler for ndo_select_queueDaniel Borkmann2014-02-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by: David S.

* tun: add device name(iff) field to proc fdinfo entryMasatake YAMATO2014-01-291-1/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A file descriptor opened for /dev/net/tun and a tun device are connected with ioctl. Though understanding the connection is important for trouble shooting, no way is given to a user to know the connected device for a given file descriptor at userland. This patch adds a new fdinfo field for the device name connected to a file descriptor opened for /dev/net/tun. Here is an example of the field: # lsof | grep tun qemu-syst 4565 qemu 25u CHR 10,200 0t138 12921 /dev/net/tun ... # cat /proc/4565/fdinfo/25 pos: 138 flags: 0104002 iff: vnet0 # ip link show dev vnet0 8: vnet0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 ... changelog: v2: indent iff just like the other fdinfo fields are. v3: remove unused variable.

* tuntap: Fix for a race in accessing numqueuesDominic Curran2014-01-231-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A patch for fixing a race between queue selection and changing queues was introduced in commit 92bb73ea2("tuntap: fix a possible race between queue selection and changing queues"). The fix was to prevent the driver from re-reading the tun->numqueues more than once within tun_select_queue() using ACCESS_ONCE(). We have been experiancing 'Divide-by-zero' errors in tun_net_xmit() since we moved from 3.6 to 3.10, and believe that they come from a simular source where the value of tun->numqueues changes to zero between the first and a subsequent read of tun->numqueues. The fix is a simular use of ACCESS_ONCE(), as well as a multiply instead of a divide in the if statement.

| * net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwardingJason Wang2014-01-101-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support so that the rps_flow_tables (RFS) can be programmed using the tun flows which are already set up to track flows for the purposes of queue selection. On the receive path (corresponding to select_queue and tun_net_xmit) the rxhash is saved in the flow_entry. The original code only does flow lookup in select_queue, so this patch adds a flow lookup in tun_net_xmit if num_queues == 1 (select_queue is not called from dev_queue_xmit->netdev_pick_tx in that case). The flow is recorded (processing CPU) in tun_flow_update (TX path), and reset when flow is deleted.

* tuntap: limit head length of skb allocatedJason Wang2013-11-141-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently use hdr_len as a hint of head length which is advertised by guest. But when guest advertise a very big value, it can lead to an 64K+ allocating of kmalloc() which has a very high possibility of failure when host memory is fragmented or under heavy stress. The huge hdr_len also reduce the effect of zerocopy or even disable if a gso skb is linearized in guest. To solves those issues, this patch introduces an upper limit (PAGE_SIZE) of the head, which guarantees an order 0 allocation each time. Cc: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Cc: Michael S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There's a small problem with sk-filters on tun devices. Consider an application doing this sequence of steps: fd = open("/dev/net/tun"); ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, { .ifr_name = "tun0" }); ioctl(fd, TUNATTACHFILTER, &my_filter); ioctl(fd, TUNSETPERSIST, 1); close(fd); At that point the tun0 will remain in the system and will keep in mind that there should be a socket filter at address '&my_filter'. If after that we do fd = open("/dev/net/tun"); ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, { .ifr_name = "tun0" }); we most likely receive the -EFAULT error, since tun_attach() would try to connect the filter back. But (!) if we provide a filter at address &my_filter, then tun0 will be created and the "new" filter would be attached, but application may not know about that. This may create certain problems to anyone using tun-s, but it's critical problem for c/r -- if we meet a persistent tun device with a filter in mind, we will not be able to attach to it to dump its state (flags, owner, address, vnethdr size, etc.). The proposal is to allow to attach to tun device (with TUNSETIFF) w/o attaching the filter to the tun-file's socket. After this attach app may e.g clean the device by dropping the filter, it doesn't want to have one, or (in case of c/r) get information about the device with tun ioctls.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Tun devices cannot be created with ifidex user wants, but it's required by checkpoint-restore project. Long time ago such ability was implemented for rtnl_ops-based interface for creating links (9c7dafbf net: Allow to create links with given ifindex), but the only API for creating and managing tuntap devices is ioctl-based and is evolving with adding new ones (cde8b15f tuntap: add ioctl to attach or detach a file form tuntap device). Following that trend, here's how a new ioctl that sets the ifindex for device, that _will_ be created by TUNSETIFF ioctl looks like. So those who want a tuntap device with the ifindex N, should open the tun device, call ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFINDEX, &N), then call TUNSETIFF. If the index N is busy, then the register_netdev will find this out and the ioctl would be failed with -EBUSY. If setifindex is not called, then it will be generated as before.

This patch adds hardware vlan tx support for tuntap. This is done by copying vlan header directly into userspace in tun_put_user() instead of doing it through __vlan_put_tag() in dev_hard_start_xmit(). This eliminates one unnecessary memmove() in vlan_insert_tag() for 802.1ad and 802.1q traffic. pktgen test shows about 20% improvement for 802.1q traffic: Before: 662149pps 317Mb/sec (317831520bps) errors: 0 After: 801033pps 384Mb/sec (384495840bps) errors: 0 Cc: Basil Gor <basil.gor@gmail.com> Cc: Michael S.

* tuntap: do not zerocopy if iov needs more pages than MAX_SKB_FRAGSJason Wang2013-07-181-24/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We try to linearize part of the skb when the number of iov is greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is not enough since each single vector may occupy more than one pages, so zerocopy_sg_fromiovec() may still fail and may break the guest network. Solve this problem by calculate the pages needed for iov before trying to do zerocopy and switch to use copy instead of zerocopy if it needs more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This is done through introducing a new helper to count the pages for iov, and call uarg->callback() manually when switching from zerocopy to copy to notify vhost. We can do further optimization on top. The bug were introduced from commit 0690899b4d4501b3505be069b9a687e68ccbe15b (tun: experimental zero copy tx support) Cc: Michael S.

* tuntap: correctly linearize skb when zerocopy is usedJason Wang2013-07-111-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Userspace may produce vectors greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. When we try to linearize parts of the skb to let the rest of iov to be fit in the frags, we need count copylen into linear when calling tun_alloc_skb() instead of partly counting it into data_len. Since this breaks zerocopy_sg_from_iovec() since its inner counter assumes nr_frags should be zero at beginning. This cause nr_frags to be increased wrongly without setting the correct frags.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| * tuntap: fix a possible race between queue selection and changing queuesJason Wang2013-06-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Complier may generate codes that re-read the tun->numqueues during tun_select_queue(). This may be a race if vlan->numqueues were changed in the same time and can lead unexpected result (e.g. very huge value). We need prevent the compiler from generating such codes by adding an ACCESS_ONCE() to make sure tun->numqueues were only read once. Bug were introduced by commit c8d68e6be1c3b242f1c598595830890b65cea64a (tuntap: multiqueue support). Reported-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Cc: Michael S.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | The TUN_PERSIST flag is not reported at all -- both TUNGETIFF, and sysfs "flags" attribute skip one. Knowing whether a device is persistent or not is critical for checkpoint-restore, thus I propose to add the read-only IFF_PERSIST one for this. Setting this new IFF_PERSIST is hardly possible, as TUNSETIFF doesn't check for unknown flags being zero and thus there can be trash.

* tuntap: forbid changing mq flag for persistent deviceJason Wang2013-05-291-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We currently allow changing the mq flag (IFF_MULTI_QUEUE) for a persistent device. This will result a mismatch between the number the queues in netdev and tuntap. This is because we only allocate a 1q netdevice when IFF_MULTI_QUEUE was not specified, so when we set the IFF_MULTI_QUEUE and try to attach more queues later, netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() may fail which result a single queue netdevice with multiple sockets attached. Solve this by disallowing changing the mq flag for persistent device. Bug was introduced by commit edfb6a148ce62e5e19354a1dcd9a34e00815c2a1 (tuntap: reduce memory using of queues).
