Pavel Emelyanov 2feb27dbe0 [NETNS]: Minor information leak via /proc/net/ptype file.
This file displays the registered packet types, but some of them
(packet sockets creates such) can be bound to a net device and showing
them in a wrong namespace is not correct.

Pavel Emelyanov fa86d322d8 [NEIGH]: Fix race between pneigh deletion and ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns (v3).
Proxy neighbors do not have any reference counting, so any caller
of pneigh_lookup (unless it's a netlink triggered add/del routine)
should _not_ perform any actions on the found proxy entry. 

There's one exception from this rule - the ipv6's ndisc_recv_ns() 
uses found entry to check the flags for NTF_ROUTER.

This creates a race between the ndisc and pneigh_delete - after 
the pneigh is returned to the caller, the nd_tbl.lock is dropped 
and the deleting procedure may proceed.

One of the fixes would be to add a reference counting, but this
problem exists for ndisc only. Besides such a patch would be too 
big for -rc4.

So I propose to introduce a __pneigh_lookup() which is supposed
to be called with the lock held and use it in ndisc code to check
the flags on alive pneigh entry.


Changes from v2:
As David noticed, Exported the __pneigh_lookup() to ipv6 module. 
The checkpatch generates a warning on it, since the EXPORT_SYMBOL 
does not follow the symbol itself, but in this file all the 
exports come at the end, so I decided no to break this harmony.

Changes from v1:
Fixed comments from YOSHIFUJI - indentation of prototype in header
and the pndisc_check_router() name - and a compilation fix, pointed
by Daniel - the is_routed was (falsely) considered as uninitialized
by gcc.

Peter P Waskiewicz Jr 82cc1a7a56 [NET]: Add per-connection option to set max TSO frame size
Update: My mailer ate one of Jarek's feedback mails...  Fixed the
parameter in netif_set_gso_max_size() to be u32, not u16.  Fixed the
whitespace issue due to a patch import botch.  Changed the types from
u32 to unsigned int to be more consistent with other variables in the
area.  Also brought the patch up to the latest net-2.6.26 tree.

Update: Made gso_max_size container 32 bits, not 16.  Moved the
location of gso_max_size within netdev to be less hotpath.  Made more
consistent names between the sock and netdev layers, and added a
define for the max GSO size.

Update: Respun for net-2.6.26 tree.

Update: changed max_gso_frame_size and sk_gso_max_size from signed to
unsigned - thanks Stephen!

This patch adds the ability for device drivers to control the size of
the TSO frames being sent to them, per TCP connection.  By setting the
netdevice's gso_max_size value, the socket layer will set the GSO
frame size based on that value.  This will propogate into the TCP
layer, and send TSO's of that size to the hardware.

This can be desirable to help tune the bursty nature of TSO on a
per-adapter basis, where one may have 1 GbE and 10 GbE devices
coexisting in a system, one running multiqueue and the other not, etc.

This can also be desirable for devices that cannot support full 64 KB
TSO's, but still want to benefit from some level of segmentation
offloading.

The neigh_hash_grow() may update the tbl->hash_rnd value, which 
is used in all tbl->hash callbacks to calculate the hashval.

Two lookup routines may race with this, since they call the 
->hash callback without the tbl->lock held. Since the hash_rnd
is changed with this lock write-locked moving the calls to ->hash
under this lock read-locked closes this gap.

Thomas Graf 1840bb13c2 [RTNL]: Validate hardware and broadcast address attribute for RTM_NEWLINK
RTM_NEWLINK allows for already existing links to be modified. For this
purpose do_setlink() is called which expects address attributes with a
payload length of at least dev->addr_len. This patch adds the necessary
validation for the RTM_NEWLINK case.

The address length for links to be created is not checked for now as the
actual attribute length is used when copying the address to the netdevice
structure. It might make sense to report an error if less than addr_len
bytes are provided but enforcing this might break drivers trying to be
smart with not transmitting all zero addresses.

There is a race in Linux kernel file net/core/dev.c, function dev_close.
The function calls function dev_deactivate, which calls function
dev_watchdog_down that deletes the watchdog timer. However, after that, a
driver can call netif_carrier_ok, which calls function
__netdev_watchdog_up that can add the watchdog timer again. Function
unregister_netdevice calls function dev_shutdown that traps the bug
!timer_pending(&dev->watchdog_timer). Moving dev_deactivate after
netif_running() has been cleared prevents function netif_carrier_on
from calling __netdev_watchdog_up and adding the watchdog timer again.

another notification is sent.

Both of them is required because originally only the NETDEV_CHANGEADDR

change, some programs may expect the original notification. It remains

David S. Miller 69cc64d8d9 [NDISC]: Fix race in generic address resolution
Frank Blaschka provided the bug report and the initial suggested fix
for this bug.  He also validated this version of this fix.

The problem is that the access to neigh->arp_queue is inconsistent, we
grab references when dropping the lock lock to call
neigh->ops->solicit() but this does not prevent other threads of
control from trying to send out that packet at the same time causing
corruptions because both code paths believe they have exclusive access
to the skb.

The best option seems to be to hold the write lock on neigh->lock
during the ->solicit() call.  I looked at all of the ndisc_ops
implementations and this seems workable.  The only case that needs
special care is the IPV4 ARP implementation of arp_solicit().  It
wants to take neigh->lock as a reader to protect the header entry in
neigh->ha during the emission of the soliciation.  We can simply
remove the read lock calls to take care of that since holding the lock
as a writer at the caller providers a superset of the protection
afforded by the existing read locking.

The rest of the ->solicit() implementations don't care whether the
neigh is locked or not.

Eric Dumazet 5f58a5c872 [IPSEC] flow: Remove an unnecessary ____cacheline_aligned
We use a percpu variable named flow_hash_info, which holds 12 bytes.

It is currently marked as ____cacheline_aligned, which makes linker
skip space to properly align this variable.

Before :
c065cc90 D per_cpu__softnet_data
c065cd00 d per_cpu__flow_tables
<Here, hole of 124 bytes>
c065cd80 d per_cpu__flow_hash_info
<Here, hole of 116 bytes>
c065ce00 d per_cpu__flow_flush_tasklets
c065ce14 d per_cpu__rt_cache_stat


This alignement is quite unproductive, and removing it reduces the
size of percpu data (by 240 bytes on my x86 machine), and improves

Chris Leech e83a2ea850 [VLAN]: set_rx_mode support for unicast address list
Reuse the existing logic for multicast list synchronization for the
unicast address list. The core of dev_mc_sync/unsync are split out as
__dev_addr_sync/unsync and moved from dev_mcast.c to dev.c.  These are
then used to implement dev_unicast_sync/unsync as well.

I'm working on cleaning up Intel's FCoE stack, which generates new MAC
addresses from the fibre channel device id assigned by the fabric as
per the current draft specification in T11.  When using such a
protocol in a VLAN environment it would be nice to not always be
forced into promiscuous mode, assuming the underlying Ethernet driver
supports multiple unicast addresses as well.

Denis V. Lunev 775516bfa2 [NETNS]: Namespace stop vs 'ip r l' race.
During network namespace stop process kernel side netlink sockets
belonging to a namespace should be closed. They should not prevent
namespace to stop, so they do not increment namespace usage
counter. Though this counter will be put during last sock_put.

The raplacement of the correct netns for init_ns solves the problem
only partial as socket to be stoped until proper stop is a valid
netlink kernel socket and can be looked up by the user processes. This
is not a problem until it resides in initial namespace (no processes
inside this net), but this is not true for init_net.

So, hold the referrence for a socket, remove it from lookup tables and
only after that change namespace and perform a last put.

Hideo Aoki 3ab224be6d [NET] CORE: Introducing new memory accounting interface.
This patch introduces new memory accounting functions for each network
protocol. Most of them are renamed from memory accounting functions
for stream protocols. At the same time, some stream memory accounting
functions are removed since other functions do same thing.

Renaming:
	sk_stream_free_skb()		->	sk_wmem_free_skb()
	__sk_stream_mem_reclaim()	->	__sk_mem_reclaim()
	sk_stream_mem_reclaim()		->	sk_mem_reclaim()
	sk_stream_mem_schedule 		->    	__sk_mem_schedule()
	sk_stream_pages()      		->	sk_mem_pages()
	sk_stream_rmem_schedule()	->	sk_rmem_schedule()
	sk_stream_wmem_schedule()	->	sk_wmem_schedule()
	sk_charge_skb()			->	sk_mem_charge()

Removeing
	sk_stream_rfree():	consolidates into sock_rfree()
	sk_stream_set_owner_r(): consolidates into skb_set_owner_r()
	sk_stream_mem_schedule()

The following functions are added.
    	sk_has_account(): check if the protocol supports accounting
	sk_mem_uncharge(): do the opposite of sk_mem_charge()

In addition, to achieve consolidation, updating sk_wmem_queued is
removed from sk_mem_charge().

Next, to consolidate memory accounting functions, this patch adds
memory accounting calls to network core functions. Moreover, present
memory accounting call is renamed to new accounting call.

Finally we replace present memory accounting calls with new interface

Michael Chan 7ffc49a6ee [ETH]: Combine format_addr() with print_mac().
print_mac() used many most net drivers and format_addr() used by
net-sysfs.c are very similar and they can be intergrated.

format_addr() is also identically redefined in the qla4xxx iscsi
driver.

Export a new function sysfs_format_mac() to be used by net-sysfs,
qla4xxx and others in the future.  Both print_mac() and
sysfs_format_mac() call _format_mac_addr() to do the formatting.

Changed print_mac() to use unsigned char * to be consistent with
net_device struct's dev_addr.  Added buffer length overrun checking
as suggested by Joe Perches.

Eric W. Biederman 426b5303eb [NETNS]: Modify the neighbour table code so it handles multiple network namespaces
I'm actually surprised at how much was involved.  At first glance it
appears that the neighbour table data structures are already split by
network device so all that should be needed is to modify the user
interface commands to filter the set of neighbours by the network
namespace of their devices.

However a couple things turned up while I was reading through the
code.  The proxy neighbour table allows entries with no network
device, and the neighbour parms are per network device (except for the
defaults) so they now need a per network namespace default.

So I updated the two structures (which surprised me) with their very
own network namespace parameter.  Updated the relevant lookup and
destroy routines with a network namespace parameter and modified the
code that interacts with users to filter out neighbour table entries
for devices of other namespaces.

I'm a little concerned that we can modify and display the global table
configuration and from all network namespaces.  But this appears good
enough for now.

I keep thinking modifying the neighbour table to have per network
namespace instances of each table type would should be cleaner.  The
hash table is already dynamically sized so there are it is not a
limiter.  The default parameter would be straight forward to take care
of.  However when I look at the how the network table is built and
used I still find some assumptions that there is only a single
neighbour table for each type of table in the kernel.  The netlink
operations, neigh_seq_start, the non-core network users that call
neigh_lookup.  So while it might be doable it would require more
refactoring than my current approach of just doing a little extra
filtering in the code.

The neigh_del_timer() looks sane - it removes the timer and

Herbert Xu a59322be07 [UDP]: Only increment counter on first peek/recv
The previous move of the the UDP inDatagrams counter caused each
peek of the same packet to be counted separately.  This may be
undesirable.

This patch fixes this by adding a bit to sk_buff to record whether
this packet has already been seen through skb_recv_datagram.  We
then only increment the counter when the packet is seen for the
first time.

The only dodgy part is the fact that skb_recv_datagram doesn't have
a good way of returning this new bit of information.  So I've added
a new function __skb_recv_datagram that does return this and made
skb_recv_datagram a wrapper around it.

The plan is to eventually replace all uses of skb_recv_datagram with
this new function at which time it can be renamed its proper name.

Pavel Emelyanov c3bac5a71b [NEIGH]: Use the ctl paths to create neighbours sysctls
The appropriate path is prepared right inside this function. It
is prepared similar to how the ctl tables were.

Since the path is modified, it is put on the stack, to avoid
possible races with multiple calls to neigh_sysctl_register() : it
is called by protocols and I didn't find any protection in this
case. Did I overlooked the rtnl lock?.

The stack growth of the neigh_sysctl_register() is 40 bytes. I
believe this is OK, since this is not that much and this function
is not called with the deep stack (device/protocols register).

The device's name is stored on the template to free it later.

This will help with the net namespaces, as each namespace should
have its own set of these ctls.

Besides, this saves ~350 bytes from the neigh template :)

either all return errors or all return zero.  For now I've stuck with
the majority and picked zero as the return value.

Gautham R Shenoy 86ef5c9a8e cpu-hotplug: replace lock_cpu_hotplug() with get_online_cpus()
Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.

The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.

In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.

Patrick McHardy 68365458a4 [NET]: rtnl_link: fix use-after-free
When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.

The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.

With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

Pavel Emelyanov 9cd4002942 [NEIGH]: Fix race between neigh_parms_release and neightbl_fill_parms
The neightbl_fill_parms() is called under the write-locked tbl->lock
and accesses the parms->dev. The negh_parm_release() calls the
dev_put(parms->dev) without this lock. This creates a tiny race window
on which the parms contains potentially stale dev pointer.

To fix this race it's enough to move the dev_put() upper under the
tbl->lock, but note, that the parms are held by neighbors and thus can
live after the neigh_parms_release() is called, so we still can have a
parm with bad dev pointer.

I didn't find where the neigh->parms->dev is accessed, but still think
that putting the dev is to be done in a place, where the parms are
really freed. Am I right with that?

Paul Moore 02f1c89d6e [NET]: Clone the sk_buff 'iif' field in __skb_clone()
Both NetLabel and SELinux (other LSMs may grow to use it as well) rely
on the 'iif' field to determine the receiving network interface of
inbound packets.  Unfortunately, at present this field is not
preserved across a skb clone operation which can lead to garbage
values if the cloned skb is sent back through the network stack.  This
patch corrects this problem by properly copying the 'iif' field in
__skb_clone() and removing the 'iif' field assignment from
skb_act_clone() since it is no longer needed.

Also, while we are here, put the assignments in the same order as the
offsets to reduce cacheline bounces.

Wei Yongjun 1ac70e7ad2 [NET]: Fix function put_cmsg() which may cause usr application memory overflow
When used function put_cmsg() to copy kernel information to user 
application memory, if the memory length given by user application is 
not enough, by the bad length calculate of msg.msg_controllen, 
put_cmsg() function may cause the msg.msg_controllen to be a large 
value, such as 0xFFFFFFF0, so the following put_cmsg() can also write 
data to usr application memory even usr has no valid memory to store 
this. This may cause usr application memory overflow.

int put_cmsg(struct msghdr * msg, int level, int type, int len, void *data)
{
    struct cmsghdr __user *cm
        = (__force struct cmsghdr __user *)msg->msg_control;
    struct cmsghdr cmhdr;
    int cmlen = CMSG_LEN(len);
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    int err;

    if (MSG_CMSG_COMPAT & msg->msg_flags)
        return put_cmsg_compat(msg, level, type, len, data);

    if (cm==NULL || msg->msg_controllen < sizeof(*cm)) {
        msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
        return 0; /* XXX: return error? check spec. */
    }
    if (msg->msg_controllen < cmlen) {
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        msg->msg_flags |= MSG_CTRUNC;
        cmlen = msg->msg_controllen;
    }
    cmhdr.cmsg_level = level;
    cmhdr.cmsg_type = type;
    cmhdr.cmsg_len = cmlen;

    err = -EFAULT;
    if (copy_to_user(cm, &cmhdr, sizeof cmhdr))
        goto out;
    if (copy_to_user(CMSG_DATA(cm), data, cmlen - sizeof(struct cmsghdr)))
        goto out;
    cmlen = CMSG_SPACE(len);
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    If MSG_CTRUNC flags is set, msg->msg_controllen is less than 
CMSG_SPACE(len), "msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen" will cause unsinged int 
type msg->msg_controllen to be a large value.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    msg->msg_control += cmlen;
    msg->msg_controllen -= cmlen;

Pavel Emelyanov dab6ba3688 [INET]: Fix potential kfree on vmalloc-ed area of request_sock_queue
The request_sock_queue's listen_opt is either vmalloc-ed or
kmalloc-ed depending on the number of table entries. Thus it 
is expected to be handled properly on free, which is done in 
the reqsk_queue_destroy().

However the error path in inet_csk_listen_start() calls 
the lite version of reqsk_queue_destroy, called 
__reqsk_queue_destroy, which calls the kfree unconditionally. 

Fix this and move the __reqsk_queue_destroy into a .c file as 
it looks too big to be inline.

As David also noticed, this is an error recovery path only,
so no locking is required and the lopt is known to be not NULL.

reqsk_queue_yank_listen_sk is also now only used in
net/core/request_sock.c so we should move it there too.

Pavel Emelyanov c67625a1ec [NET]: Remove notifier block from chain when register_netdevice_notifier fails
Commit fcc5a03ac42564e9e255c1134dda47442289e466:

	[NET]: Allow netdev REGISTER/CHANGENAME events to fail

makes the register_netdevice_notifier() handle the error from the
NETDEV_REGISTER event, sent to the registering block.

The bad news is that in this case the notifier block is 
not removed from the list, but the error is returned to the 
caller. In case the caller is in module init function and 
handles this error this can abort the module loading. The
notifier block will be then removed from the kernel, but 
will be left in the list. Oops :(

I think that the notifier block should be removed from the
chain in case of error, regardless whether this error is 
handled by the caller or not. In the worst case (the error 
is _not_ handled) module will not receive the events any 
longer.

Eric Dumazet 286ab3d460 [NET]: Define infrastructure to keep 'inuse' changes in an efficent SMP/NUMA way.
"struct proto" currently uses an array stats[NR_CPUS] to track change on
'inuse' sockets per protocol.

If NR_CPUS is big, this means we use a big memory area for this.
Moreover, all this memory area is located on a single node on NUMA
machines, increasing memory pressure on the boot node.

In this patch, I tried to :

- Keep a fast !CONFIG_SMP implementation
- Keep a fast CONFIG_SMP implementation for often used protocols
(tcp,udp,raw,...)
- Introduce a NUMA efficient implementation

Some helper macros are defined in include/net/sock.h
These macros take into account CONFIG_SMP

If a "struct proto" is declared without using DEFINE_PROTO_INUSE /
REF_PROTO_INUSE
macros, it will automatically use a default implementation, using a
dynamically allocated percpu zone.
This default implementation will be NUMA efficient, but might use 32/64
bytes per possible cpu
because of current alloc_percpu() implementation.
However it still should be better than previous implementation based on
stats[NR_CPUS] field.

When a "struct proto" is changed to use the new macros, we use a single
static "int" percpu variable,
lowering the memory and cpu costs, still preserving NUMA efficiency.

When the new pernet something (subsys, device or operations) is
being registered, the init callback is to be called for each
namespace, that currently exitst in the system. During the
unregister, the same is to be done with the exit callback.

However, not every pernet something has both calls, but the
check for the appropriate pointer to be not NULL is performed
inside the for_each_net() loop.

This is (at least) strange, so tune this.

David S. Miller 51c739d1f4 [NET]: Fix incorrect sg_mark_end() calls.
This fixes scatterlist corruptions added by

	commit 68e3f5dd4d
	[CRYPTO] users: Fix up scatterlist conversion errors

The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.

The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().

After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.

I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().

Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.

Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.

The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h

Daniel Lezcano 310928d963 [NETNS]: fix net released by rcu callback
When a network namespace reference is held by a network subsystem,
and when this reference is decremented in a rcu update callback, we
must ensure that there is no more outstanding rcu update before
trying to free the network namespace.

In the normal case, the rcu_barrier is called when the network namespace
is exiting in the cleanup_net function.

But when a network namespace creation fails, and the subsystems are
undone (like the cleanup), the rcu_barrier is missing.

This patch adds the missing rcu_barrier.

Daniel Lezcano 93ee31f14f [NET]: Fix free_netdev on register_netdev failure.
Point 1:
The unregistering of a network device schedule a netdev_run_todo.
This function calls dev->destructor when it is set and the
destructor calls free_netdev.

Point 2:
In the case of an initialization of a network device the usual code
is:
 * alloc_netdev
 * register_netdev
    -> if this one fails, call free_netdev and exit with error.

Point 3:
In the register_netdevice function at the later state, when the device
is at the registered state, a call to the netdevice_notifiers is made.
If one of the notification falls into an error, a rollback to the
registered state is done using unregister_netdevice.

Conclusion:
When a network device fails to register during initialization because
one network subsystem returned an error during a notification call
chain, the network device is freed twice because of fact 1 and fact 2.
The second free_netdev will be done with an invalid pointer.

Proposed solution:
The following patch move all the code of unregister_netdevice *except*
the call to net_set_todo, to a new function "rollback_registered".

The following functions are changed in this way:
 * register_netdevice: calls rollback_registered when a notification fails
 * unregister_netdevice: calls rollback_register + net_set_todo, the call
                         order to net_set_todo is changed because it is the
                         latest now. Since it justs add an element to a list
                         that should not break anything.

Eric W. Biederman 2b008b0a8e [NET]: Marking struct pernet_operations __net_initdata was inappropriate
It is not safe to to place struct pernet_operations in a special section.
We need struct pernet_operations to last until we call unregister_pernet_subsys.
Which doesn't happen until module unload.

So marking struct pernet_operations is a disaster for modules in two ways.
- We discard it before we call the exit method it points to.
- Because I keep struct pernet_operations on a linked list discarding
  it for compiled in code removes elements in the middle of a linked
  list and does horrible things for linked insert.

So this looks safe assuming __exit_refok is not discarded
for modules.

Pavel Emelyanov b488893a39 pid namespaces: changes to show virtual ids to user
This is the largest patch in the set. Make all (I hope) the places where
the pid is shown to or get from user operate on the virtual pids.

The idea is:
 - all in-kernel data structures must store either struct pid itself
   or the pid's global nr, obtained with pid_nr() call;
 - when seeking the task from kernel code with the stored id one
   should use find_task_by_pid() call that works with global pids;
 - when showing pid's numerical value to the user the virtual one
   should be used, but however when one shows task's pid outside this
   task's namespace the global one is to be used;
 - when getting the pid from userspace one need to consider this as
   the virtual one and use appropriate task/pid-searching functions.

Pavel Emelyanov cf7b708c8d Make access to task's nsproxy lighter
When someone wants to deal with some other taks's namespaces it has to lock
the task and then to get the desired namespace if the one exists.  This is
slow on read-only paths and may be impossible in some cases.

E.g.  Oleg recently noticed a race between unshare() and the (sent for
review in cgroups) pid namespaces - when the task notifies the parent it
has to know the parent's namespace, but taking the task_lock() is
impossible there - the code is under write locked tasklist lock.

On the other hand switching the namespace on task (daemonize) and releasing
the namespace (after the last task exit) is rather rare operation and we
can sacrifice its speed to solve the issues above.

The access to other task namespaces is proposed to be performed
like this:

     rcu_read_lock();
     nsproxy = task_nsproxy(tsk);
     if (nsproxy != NULL) {
             / *
               * work with the namespaces here
               * e.g. get the reference on one of them
               * /
     } / *
         * NULL task_nsproxy() means that this task is
         * almost dead (zombie)
         * /
     rcu_read_unlock();

This patch has passed the review by Eric and Oleg :) and,
of course, tested.

That's the deref of fp:

static void sk_filter_delayed_uncharge(struct sock *sk, struct sk_filter *fp)
{
        unsigned int size = sk_filter_len(fp);
...

That is called from sk_attach_filter():

...
        rcu_read_lock_bh();
        old_fp = rcu_dereference(sk->sk_filter);
        rcu_assign_pointer(sk->sk_filter, fp);
        rcu_read_unlock_bh();

        sk_filter_delayed_uncharge(sk, old_fp);
        return 0;
...

So, looks like rcu_dereference() returned NULL. I don't know the
filter code at all, but it seems like it might be a valid case?
sk_detach_filter() seems to handle a NULL sk_filter, at least.

So, this needs review by someone who knows the filter, but it fixes the
problem for me:

Herbert Xu 13996378e6 [IPSEC]: Rename mode to outer_mode and add inner_mode
This patch adds a new field to xfrm states called inner_mode.  The existing
mode object is renamed to outer_mode.

This is the first part of an attempt to fix inter-family transforms.  As it
is we always use the outer family when determining which mode to use.  As a
result we may end up shoving IPv4 packets into netfilter6 and vice versa.

What we really want is to use the inner family for the first part of outbound
processing and the outer family for the second part.  For inbound processing
we'd use the opposite pairing.

I've also added a check to prevent silly combinations such as transport mode
with inter-family transforms.

Herbert Xu a030847e9f [NET]: Avoid copying TCP packets unnecessarily
TCP packets all have writable heads, that is, even though it's cloned, it is
writable up to the end of the TCP header.  This patch makes skb_checksum_help
aware of this fact by using skb_clone_writable and avoiding a copy for TCP.

I've also modified the BUG_ON tests to be unsigned.  The only case where this
makes a difference is if csum_start points to a location before skb->data.
Since skb->data should always include the header where the checksum field
is (and all currently callers adhere to that), this change is safe and may
uncover bugs later.

Denis V. Lunev cd40b7d398 [NET]: make netlink user -> kernel interface synchronious
This patch make processing netlink user -> kernel messages synchronious.
This change was inspired by the talk with Alexey Kuznetsov about current
netlink messages processing. He says that he was badly wrong when introduced 
asynchronious user -> kernel communication.

The call netlink_unicast is the only path to send message to the kernel
netlink socket. But, unfortunately, it is also used to send data to the
user.

Before this change the user message has been attached to the socket queue
and sk->sk_data_ready was called. The process has been blocked until all
pending messages were processed. The bad thing is that this processing
may occur in the arbitrary process context.

This patch changes nlk->data_ready callback to get 1 skb and force packet
processing right in the netlink_unicast.

Kernel -> user path in netlink_unicast remains untouched.

EINTR processing for in netlink_run_queue was changed. It forces rtnl_lock
drop, but the process remains in the cycle until the message will be fully
processed. So, there is no need to use this kludges now.

Denis V. Lunev 1536cc0d55 [NET]: rtnl_unlock cleanups
There is no need to process outstanding netlink user->kernel packets
during rtnl_unlock now. There is no rtnl_trylock in the rtnetlink_rcv
anymore.

Normal code path is the following:
netlink_sendmsg
   netlink_unicast
       netlink_sendskb
           skb_queue_tail
           netlink_data_ready
               rtnetlink_rcv
                   mutex_lock(&rtnl_mutex);
                   netlink_run_queue(sk, qlen, &rtnetlink_rcv_msg);
                   mutex_unlock(&rtnl_mutex);

So, it is possible, that packets can be present in the rtnl->sk_receive_queue
during rtnl_unlock, but there is no need to process them at that moment as
rtnetlink_rcv for that packet is pending.

Pavel Emelyanov 4665079cbb [NETNS]: Move some code into __init section when CONFIG_NET_NS=n
With the net namespaces many code leaved the __init section,
thus making the kernel occupy more memory than it did before.
Since we have a config option that prohibits the namespace
creation, the functions that initialize/finalize some netns
stuff are simply not needed and can be freed after the boot.

Currently, this is almost not noticeable, since few calls
are no longer in __init, but when the namespaces will be
merged it will be possible to free more code. I propose to
use the __net_init, __net_exit and __net_initdata "attributes"
for functions/variables that are not used if the CONFIG_NET_NS
is not set to save more space in memory.

The exiting functions cannot just reside in the __exit section,
as noticed by David, since the init section will have
references on it and the compilation will fail due to modpost
checks. These references can exist, since the init namespace
never dies and the exit callbacks are never called. So I
introduce the __exit_refok attribute just like it is already
done with the __init_refok.

Eric W. Biederman f4618d39a3 [NETNS]: Simplify the network namespace list locking rules.
Denis V. Lunev <den@sw.ru> noticed that the locking rules
for the network namespace list are over complicated and broken.

In particular the current register_netdev_notifier currently
does not take any lock making the for_each_net iteration racy
with network namespace creation and destruction. Oops.

The fact that we need to use for_each_net in rtnl_unlock() when
the rtnetlink support becomes per network namespace makes designing
the proper locking tricky.  In addition we need to be able to call
rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() when we have the net_mutex held.

After thinking about it and looking at the alternatives carefully
it looks like the simplest and most maintainable solution is
to remove net_list_mutex altogether, and to use the rtnl_mutex instead.

Pavel Emelyanov 768f3591e2 [NETNS]: Cleanup list walking in setup_net and cleanup_net
I proposed introducing a list_for_each_entry_continue_reverse macro
to be used in setup_net() when unrolling the failed ->init callback.

Here is the macro and some more cleanup in the setup_net() itself
to remove one variable from the stack :) The same thing is for the
cleanup_net() - the existing list_for_each_entry_reverse() is used.

Minor, but the code looks nicer.

Jeff Garzik 88d3aafdae [ETHTOOL] Provide default behaviors for a few ethtool sub-ioctls
For the operations
	get-tx-csum
	get-sg
	get-tso
	get-ufo
the default ethtool_op_xxx behavior is fine for all drivers, so we
permit op==NULL to imply the default behavior.

This provides a more uniform behavior across all drivers, eliminating
ethtool(8) "ioctl not supported" errors on older drivers that had
not been updated for the latest sub-ioctls.

The ethtool_op_xxx() functions are left exported, in case anyone
wishes to call them directly from a driver-private implementation --
a not-uncommon case.  Should an ethtool_op_xxx() helper remain unused
for a while, except by net/core/ethtool.c, we can un-export it at a
later date.

Eric W. Biederman 077130c0cf [NET]: Fix race when opening a proc file while a network namespace is exiting.
The problem:  proc_net files remember which network namespace the are
against but do not remember hold a reference count (as that would pin
the network namespace).   So we currently have a small window where
the reference count on a network namespace may be incremented when opening
a /proc file when it has already gone to zero.

To fix this introduce maybe_get_net and get_proc_net.

maybe_get_net increments the network namespace reference count only if it is
greater then zero, ensuring we don't increment a reference count after it
has gone to zero.

get_proc_net handles all of the magic to go from a proc inode to the network
namespace instance and call maybe_get_net on it.

PROC_NET the old accessor is removed so that we don't get confused and use
the wrong helper function.

Then I fix up the callers to use get_proc_net and handle the case case
where get_proc_net returns NULL.  In that case I return -ENXIO because
effectively the network namespace has already gone away so the files
we are trying to access don't exist anymore.

Eric Dumazet 86bba269d0 [PATCH] NET : convert IP route cache garbage collection from softirq processing to a workqueue
When the periodic IP route cache flush is done (every 600 seconds on
default configuration), some hosts suffer a lot and eventually trigger
the "soft lockup" message.

dst_run_gc() is doing a scan of a possibly huge list of dst_entries,
eventually freeing some (less than 1%) of them, while holding the
dst_lock spinlock for the whole scan.

Then it rearms a timer to redo the full thing 1/10 s later...
The slowdown can last one minute or so, depending on how active are
the tcp sessions.

This second version of the patch converts the processing from a softirq
based one to a workqueue.

Even if the list of entries in garbage_list is huge, host is still
responsive to softirqs and can make progress.

Instead of resetting gc timer to 0.1 second if one entry was freed in a
gc run, we do this if more than 10% of entries were freed.

Eric W. Biederman ce286d3273 [NET]: Implement network device movement between namespaces
This patch introduces NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL a flag to indicate
a network device is local to a single network namespace and
should never be moved.  Useful for pseudo devices that we
need an instance in each network namespace (like the loopback
device) and for any device we find that cannot handle multiple
network namespaces so we may trap them in the initial network
namespace.

This patch introduces the function dev_change_net_namespace
a function used to move a network device from one network
namespace to another.  To the network device nothing
special appears to happen, to the components of the network
stack it appears as if the network device was unregistered
in the network namespace it is in, and a new device
was registered in the network namespace the device
was moved to.

This patch sets up a namespace device destructor that
upon the exit of a network namespace moves all of the
movable network devices  to the initial network namespace
so they are not lost.

Eric W. Biederman 881d966b48 [NET]: Make the device list and device lookups per namespace.
This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe.  This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables.  The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl

were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.

vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.

So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces.  The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace.  This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.

At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change.  Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

As they would if the kernel did not have the support for
that netlink protocol compiled in.

As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network
namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets
to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces.

The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation

This gets it right for the vast majority of devices so their
drivers need not be modified and for those few pseudo devices
that need something different they can change this parameter
before calling register_netdevice.

The network namespace parameter on a network device is not
reference counted as the devices are inside of a network namespace

This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and

has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

Several get/set functions can be handled by a passing the ethtool_op
function pointer directly to a generic function.  This permits deletion
of a fair bit of redundant code.

Satyam Sharma 0bcc181618 [NET] netconsole: Support dynamic reconfiguration using configfs
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

This patch introduces support for dynamic reconfiguration (adding, removing
and/or modifying parameters of netconsole targets at runtime) using a
userspace interface exported via configfs.  Documentation is also updated
accordingly.

Issues and brief design overview:

(1) Kernel-initiated creation / destruction of kernel objects is not
    possible with configfs -- the lifetimes of the "config items" is managed
    exclusively from userspace.  But netconsole must support boot/module
    params too, and these are parsed in kernel and hence netpolls must be
    setup from the kernel.  Joel Becker suggested to separately manage the
    lifetimes of the two kinds of netconsole_target objects -- those created
    via configfs mkdir(2) from userspace and those specified from the
    boot/module option string.  This adds complexity and some redundancy here
    and also means that boot/module param-created targets are not exposed
    through the configfs namespace (and hence cannot be updated / destroyed
    dynamically).  However, this saves us from locking / refcounting
    complexities that would need to be introduced in configfs to support
    kernel-initiated item creation / destroy there.

(2) In configfs, item creation takes place in the call chain of the
    mkdir(2) syscall in the driver subsystem.  If we used an ioctl(2) to
    create / destroy objects from userspace, the special userspace program is
    able to fill out the structure to be passed into the ioctl and hence
    specify attributes such as local interface that are required at the time
    we set up the netpoll.  For configfs, this information is not available at
    the time of mkdir(2).  So, we keep all newly-created targets (via
    configfs) disabled by default.  The user is expected to set various
    attributes appropriately (including the local network interface if
    required) and then write(2) "1" to the "enabled" attribute.  Thus,
    netpoll_setup() is then called on the set parameters in the context of
    _this_ write(2) on the "enabled" attribute itself.  This design enables
    the user to reconfigure existing netconsole targets at runtime to be
    attached to newly-come-up interfaces that may not have existed when
    netconsole was loaded or when the targets were actually created.  All this
    effectively enables us to get rid of custom ioctls.

(3) Ultra-paranoid configfs attribute show() and store() operations, with
    sanity and input range checking, using only safe string primitives, and
    compliant with the recommendations in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt.

(4) A new function netpoll_print_options() is created in the netpoll API,
    that just prints out the configured parameters for a netpoll structure.
    netpoll_parse_options() is modified to use that and it is also exported to
    be used from netconsole.

Thomas Graf d961db358f [NEIGH]: Netlink notifications
Currently neighbour event notifications are limited to update
notifications and only sent if the ARP daemon is enabled. This
patch extends the existing notification code by also reporting
neighbours being removed due to gc or administratively and
removes the dependency on the ARP daemon. This allows to keep
track of neighbour states without periodically fetching the
complete neighbour table.

Pavel Emelianov e71992889e [RTNETLINK]: Introduce generic rtnl_create_link().
This routine gets the parsed rtnl attributes and creates a new
link with generic info (IFLA_LINKINFO policy). Its intention
is to help the drivers, that need to create several links at
once (like VETH).

This is nothing but a copy-paste-ed part of rtnl_newlink() function
that is responsible for creation of new device.

Stephen Hemminger bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Bug fixes from Thomas Graf, Roland Dreier, Peter Zijlstra,
Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

[ Ported to current tree and all drivers converted.  Integrated
  Stephen's follow-on kerneldoc additions, and restored poll_list
  handling to the old style to fix mutual exclusion issues.  -DaveM ]
