As IPv6 is built-in only, it does not make sense to continue using
IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_IPV6). Therefore, replace it with IS_ENABLED() when
necessary and drop it if it isn't valid anymore.
Notice that there is still one instance related to ICMPv6, as it
requires more changes it will be handle separately.

NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM only advertises support for checksum offload of
packets without IPv6 extension headers. Packets with extension
headers must fall back onto software checksumming. Since TSO
depends on checksum offload, those must revert to GSO.
The below commit introduces that fallback. It always checks
network header length. For tunneled packets, the inner header length
must be checked instead. Extend the check accordingly.
A special case is tunneled packets without inner IP protocol. Such as
RFC 6951 SCTP in UDP. Those are not standard IPv6 followed by
transport header either, so also must revert to the software GSO path.

While testing other changes in vng I noticed that
nl_netdev.page_pool_check flakes. This never happens in real CI.
Turns out vng may boot and get to that test in less than a second.
page_pool_detached() records the detach time in seconds, so if
vng is fast enough detach time is set to 0. Other code treats
0 as "not detached". detach_time is only used to report the state
to the user, so it's not a huge deal in practice but let's fix it.
Store the raw ktime_t (nanoseconds) instead. A nanosecond value
of 0 is practically impossible.

Tunnel xmit functions (iptunnel_xmit, ip6tunnel_xmit) lack their own
recursion limit. When a bond device in broadcast mode has GRE tap
interfaces as slaves, and those GRE tunnels route back through the
bond, multicast/broadcast traffic triggers infinite recursion between
bond_xmit_broadcast() and ip_tunnel_xmit()/ip6_tnl_xmit(), causing
kernel stack overflow.
The existing XMIT_RECURSION_LIMIT (8) in the no-qdisc path is not
sufficient because tunnel recursion involves route lookups and full IP
output, consuming much more stack per level. Use a lower limit of 4
(IP_TUNNEL_RECURSION_LIMIT) to prevent overflow.
Add recursion detection using dev_xmit_recursion helpers directly in
iptunnel_xmit() and ip6tunnel_xmit() to cover all IPv4/IPv6 tunnel
paths including UDP encapsulated tunnels (VXLAN, Geneve, etc.).
Move dev_xmit_recursion helpers from net/core/dev.h to public header
include/linux/netdevice.h so they can be used by tunnel code.

Following typical script is extremely disruptive,
because each graft operation calls dev_deactivate()
which resets all the queues of the device.
QPARAM="limit 100000 flow_limit 1000 buckets 4096"
TXQS=64
for ETH in eth1
do
tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null
tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq
for i in `seq 1 $TXQS`
do
slot=$( printf %x $(( i )) )
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$slot fq $QPARAM
done
done
One can add "ip link set dev $ETH down/up" to reduce the disruption time:
QPARAM="limit 100000 flow_limit 1000 buckets 4096"
TXQS=64
for ETH in eth1
do
ip link set dev $ETH down
tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null
tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq
for i in `seq 1 $TXQS`
do
slot=$( printf %x $(( i )) )
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$slot fq $QPARAM
done
ip link set dev $ETH up
done
Or we can add a @reset_needed flag to dev_deactivate() and
dev_deactivate_many().
This flag is set to true at device dismantle or linkwatch_do_dev(),
and to false for graft operations.
In the future, we might only stop one queue instead of the whole
device, ie call dev_deactivate_queue() instead of dev_deactivate().
I think the problem (quadratic behavior) was added in commit
2fb541c862 ("net: sch_generic: aviod concurrent reset and enqueue op
for lockless qdisc") but this does not look serious enough to deserve
risky backports.

The current formula for calculating XDP tailroom in mbuf packets works only
if each frag has its own page (if rxq->frag_size is PAGE_SIZE), this
defeats the purpose of the parameter overall and without any indication
leads to negative calculated tailroom on at least half of frags, if shared
pages are used.
There are not many drivers that set rxq->frag_size. Among them:
* i40e and enetc always split page uniformly between frags, use shared
pages
* ice uses page_pool frags via libeth, those are power-of-2 and uniformly
distributed across page
* idpf has variable frag_size with XDP on, so current API is not applicable
* mlx5, mtk and mvneta use PAGE_SIZE or 0 as frag_size for page_pool
As for AF_XDP ZC, only ice, i40e and idpf declare frag_size for it. Modulo
operation yields good results for aligned chunks, they are all power-of-2,
between 2K and PAGE_SIZE. Formula without modulo fails when chunk_size is
2K. Buffers in unaligned mode are not distributed uniformly, so modulo
operation would not work.
To accommodate unaligned buffers, we could define frag_size as
data + tailroom, and hence do not subtract offset when calculating
tailroom, but this would necessitate more changes in the drivers.
Define rxq->frag_size as an even portion of a page that fully belongs to a
single frag. When calculating tailroom, locate the data start within such
portion by performing a modulo operation on page offset.

After acquiring netdev_queue::_xmit_lock the number of the CPU owning
the lock is recorded in netdev_queue::xmit_lock_owner. This works as
long as the BH context is not preemptible.
On PREEMPT_RT the softirq context is preemptible and without the
softirq-lock it is possible to have multiple user in __dev_queue_xmit()
submitting a skb on the same CPU. This is fine in general but this means
also that the current CPU is recorded as netdev_queue::xmit_lock_owner.
This in turn leads to the recursion alert and the skb is dropped.
Instead checking the for CPU number, that owns the lock, PREEMPT_RT can
check if the lockowner matches the current task.
Add netif_tx_owned() which returns true if the current context owns the
lock by comparing the provided CPU number with the recorded number. This
resembles the current check by negating the condition (the current check
returns true if the lock is not owned).
On PREEMPT_RT use rt_mutex_owner() to return the lock owner and compare
the current task against it.
Use the new helper in __dev_queue_xmit() and netif_local_xmit_active()
which provides a similar check.

binding->dev is protected on the write-side in
mp_dmabuf_devmem_uninstall() against concurrent writes, but due to the
concurrent bare reads in net_devmem_get_binding() and
validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() it should be wrapped in a
READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE pair to make sure no compiler optimizations play
with the underlying register in unforeseen ways.
Doesn't present a critical bug because the known compiler optimizations
don't result in bad behavior. There is no tearing on u64, and load
omissions/invented loads would only break if additional binding->dev
references were inlined together (they aren't right now).
This just more strictly follows the linux memory model (i.e.,
"Lock-Protected Writes With Lockless Reads" in
tools/memory-model/Documentation/access-marking.txt).

Instead of using struct timespec64 in scm_timestamping_internal,
use ktime_t, saving 24 bytes in kernel stack.
This makes tcp_update_recv_tstamps() small enough to be inlined.
The ktime_t -> timespec64 conversions happen after socket lock
has been released in tcp_recvmsg(), and only if the application
requested them.

The failover framework requires 'ops' to be functional. Currently,
failover_register() allows an instance to be registered with NULL
ops, which leads to inconsistent NULL checks and potential NULL
pointer dereferences in the slave registration paths.
Harden the entry point by requiring non-NULL ops in
failover_register(). This ensures the 'fops' pointer is guaranteed
to be valid for any successfully registered failover instance.
Consequently, remove the now redundant NULL checks for 'fops'
throughout the module to simplify the logic.

Since XDP programs are called from a NAPI poll context, the RCU
reference liveness is ensured by local_bh_disable().
Commit aeea1b86f9 ("bpf, devmap: Exclude XDP broadcast to master

context, but missed adding rcu_read_lock_bh_held() as a condition to the
RCU checks.
While both bh_disabled and rcu_read_lock() provide RCU protection,
lockdep complains since the check condition is insufficient [1].
Add rcu_read_lock_bh_held() as condition to help lockdep to understand
the dereference is safe, in the same way as commit 694cea395f ("bpf:

The cause is that in threaded busypoll, the main loop is in
napi_threaded_poll rather than napi_threaded_poll_loop, where the
latter rarely iterates more than once within its loop. For
rcu_softirq_qs_periodic inside napi_threaded_poll_loop to report its
qs state, the last_qs must be 100ms behind, and this can't happen
because napi_threaded_poll_loop rarely iterates in threaded busypoll,
and each time napi_threaded_poll_loop is called last_qs is reset to
latest jiffies.
This patch changes so that in threaded busypoll, last_qs is saved
in the outer napi_threaded_poll, and whether busy_poll_last_qs
is NULL indicates whether napi_threaded_poll_loop is called for
busypoll. This way last_qs would not reset to latest jiffies on
each invocation of napi_threaded_poll_loop.

udpgro_frglist.sh and udpgro_bench.sh are the flakiest tests
currently in NIPA. They fail in the same exact way, TCP GRO
test stalls occasionally and the test gets killed after 10min.
These tests use veth to simulate GRO. They attach a trivial
("return XDP_PASS;") XDP program to the veth to force TSO off
and NAPI on.
Digging into the failure mode we can see that the connection
is completely stuck after a burst of drops. The sender's snd_nxt
is at sequence number N [1], but the receiver claims to have
received (rcv_nxt) up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. Last piece of the puzzle
is that senders rtx queue is not empty (let's say the block in
the rtx queue is at sequence number N - 4 * MSS [3]).
In this state, sender sends a retransmission from the rtx queue
with a single segment, and sequence numbers N-4*MSS:N-3*MSS [3].
Receiver sees it and responds with an ACK all the way up to
N + 3 * MSS [2]. But sender will reject this ack as TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA
because it has no recollection of ever sending data that far out [1].
And we are stuck.
The root cause is the mess of the xmit return codes. veth returns
an error when it can't xmit a frame. We end up with a loss event
like this:
-------------------------------------------------
| GSO super frame 1 | GSO super frame 2 |
|-----------------------------------------------|
| seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
-------------------------------------------------
x ok ok <ok>| ok ok ok <x>
\\
snd_nxt
"x" means packet lost by veth, and "ok" means it went thru.
Since veth has TSO disabled in this test it sees individual segments.
Segment 1 is on the retransmit queue and will be resent.
So why did the sender not advance snd_nxt even tho it clearly did
send up to seg 8? tcp_write_xmit() interprets the return code
from the core to mean that data has not been sent at all. Since
TCP deals with GSO super frames, not individual segment the crux
of the problem is that loss of a single segment can be interpreted
as loss of all. TCP only sees the last return code for the last
segment of the GSO frame (in <> brackets in the diagram above).
Of course for the problem to occur we need a setup or a device
without a Qdisc. Otherwise Qdisc layer disconnects the protocol
layer from the device errors completely.
We have multiple ways to fix this.
1) make veth not return an error when it lost a packet.
While this is what I think we did in the past, the issue keeps
reappearing and it's annoying to debug. The game of whack
a mole is not great.
2) fix the damn return codes
We only talk about NETDEV_TX_OK and NETDEV_TX_BUSY in the
documentation, so maybe we should make the return code from
ndo_start_xmit() a boolean. I like that the most, but perhaps
some ancient, not-really-networking protocol would suffer.
3) make TCP ignore the errors
It is not entirely clear to me what benefit TCP gets from
interpreting the result of ip_queue_xmit()? Specifically once
the connection is established and we're pushing data - packet
loss is just packet loss?
4) this fix
Ignore the rc in the Qdisc-less+GSO case, since it's unreliable.
We already always return OK in the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS case.
In the Qdisc-less case let's be a bit more conservative and only
mask the GSO errors. This path is taken by non-IP-"networks"
like CAN, MCTP etc, so we could regress some ancient thing.
This is the simplest, but also maybe the hackiest fix?
Similar fix has been proposed by Eric in the past but never committed
because original reporter was working with an OOT driver and wasn't
providing feedback (see Link).

skb_may_tx_timestamp() may acquire sock::sk_callback_lock. The lock must
not be taken in IRQ context, only softirq is okay. A few drivers receive
the timestamp via a dedicated interrupt and complete the TX timestamp
from that handler. This will lead to a deadlock if the lock is already
write-locked on the same CPU.
Taking the lock can be avoided. The socket (pointed by the skb) will
remain valid until the skb is released. The ->sk_socket and ->file
member will be set to NULL once the user closes the socket which may
happen before the timestamp arrives.
If we happen to observe the pointer while the socket is closing but
before the pointer is set to NULL then we may use it because both
pointer (and the file's cred member) are RCU freed.
Drop the lock. Use READ_ONCE() to obtain the individual pointer. Add a
matching WRITE_ONCE() where the pointer are cleared.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

====================
netfilter: updates for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for *net*:
1) Add missing __rcu annotations to NAT helper hook pointers in Amanda,
FTP, IRC, SNMP and TFTP helpers. From Sun Jian.
2-4):
- Add global spinlock to serialize nft_counter fetch+reset operations.
- Use atomic64_xchg() for nft_quota reset instead of read+subtract pattern.
Note AI review detects a race in this change but it isn't new. The
'racing' bit only exists to prevent constant stream of 'quota expired'
notifications.
- Revert commit_mutex usage in nf_tables reset path, it caused
circular lock dependency. All from Brian Witte.
5) Fix uninitialized l3num value in nf_conntrack_h323 helper.
6) Fix musl libc compatibility in netfilter_bridge.h UAPI header. This
change isn't nice (UAPI headers should not include libc headers), but
as-is musl builds may fail due to redefinition of struct ethhdr.
7) Fix protocol checksum validation in IPVS for IPv6 with extension headers,
from Julian Anastasov.
8) Fix device reference leak in IPVS when netdev goes down. Also from
Julian.
9) Remove WARN_ON_ONCE when accessing forward path array, this can
trigger with sufficiently long forward paths. From Pablo Neira Ayuso.
10) Fix use-after-free in nf_tables_addchain() error path, from Inseo An.

Core & protocols
----------------
- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls for
small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path. This
generates better and faster code with very small or no text size
increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than the
actual inlined helper.
- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.
- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage by
up to ~30%.
- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the RX
path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without the
HBH hint.
- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified, aligning
IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the rate
shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing a
single global rate on the interface.
- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations that
are safer in crash scenarios.
- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information, saving
cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most protocols,
avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies between
the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.
- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
across different network namespaces.
- Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
optimizations.
- Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes back
online.
Driver API
----------
- Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a DPLL
device via netlink.
- Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
media ports over a single MAC.

The skb extension ids range from 0 .. 7 to fit their bits as flags into
a single byte. The ids are automatically enumnerated in enum skb_ext_id

When having 8 skb extension ids (0 .. 7), SKB_EXT_NUM becomes 8 which is
a valid value for SKB_EXT_NUM.

Currently, unhash_nsid() scans the entire system for each netns being
killed, leading to O(L_dying_net * M_alive_net * N_id) complexity, as
__peernet2id() also performs a linear search in the IDR.
Optimize this to O(M_alive_net * N_id) by batching unhash operations. Move
unhash_nsid() out of the per-netns loop in cleanup_net() to perform a
single-pass traversal over survivor namespaces.
Identify dying peers by an 'is_dying' flag, which is set under net_rwsem
write lock after the netns is removed from the global list. This batches
the unhashing work and eliminates the O(L_dying_net) multiplier.
To minimize the impact on struct net size, 'is_dying' is placed in an
existing hole after 'hash_mix' in struct net.
Use a restartable idr_get_next() loop for iteration. This avoids the
unsafe modification issue inherent to idr_for_each() callbacks and allows
dropping the nsid_lock to safely call sleepy rtnl_net_notifyid().
Clean up redundant nsid_lock and simplify the destruction loop now that
unhashing is centralized.

Take care of rqspinlock error in bpf_local_storage_{map_free, destroy}()
properly by switching to bpf_selem_unlink_nofail().
Both functions iterate their own RCU-protected list of selems and call
bpf_selem_unlink_nofail(). In map_free(), to prevent infinite loop when
both map_free() and destroy() fail to remove a selem from b->list
(extremely unlikely), switch to hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(). In destroy(),
also switch to hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() since we no longer iterate
local_storage->list under local_storage->lock.
bpf_selem_unlink() now becomes dedicated to helpers and syscalls paths
so reuse_now should always be false. Remove it from the argument and
hardcode it.

To prepare changing both bpf_local_storage_map_bucket::lock and

failable. It still always succeeds and returns 0 until the change
happens. No functional change.
Open code bpf_selem_unlink_storage() in the only caller,
bpf_selem_unlink(), since unlink_map and unlink_storage must be done
together after all the necessary locks are acquired.
For bpf_local_storage_map_free(), ignore the return from
bpf_selem_unlink() for now. A later patch will allow it to unlink selems

A later bpf_local_storage refactor will acquire all locks before
performing any update. To simplified the number of locks needed to take
in bpf_local_storage_map_update(), determine the bucket based on the
local_storage an selem belongs to instead of the selem pointer.
Currently, when a new selem needs to be created to replace the old selem
in bpf_local_storage_map_update(), locks of both buckets need to be
acquired to prevent racing. This can be simplified if the two selem
belongs to the same bucket so that only one bucket needs to be locked.
Therefore, instead of hashing selem, hashing the local_storage pointer
the selem belongs.
Performance wise, this is slightly better as update now requires locking
one bucket. It should not change the level of contention on one bucket
as the pointers to local storages of selems in a map are just as unique
as pointers to selems.

To remove the private CAN bus skb headroom infrastructure 8 bytes need to
be stored in the skb. The skb extensions are a common pattern and an easy
and efficient way to hold private data travelling along with the skb. We
only need the skb_ext_add() and skb_ext_find() functions to allocate and
access CAN specific content as the skb helpers to copy/clone/free skbs
automatically take care of skb extensions and their final removal.
This patch introduces the complete CAN skb extensions infrastructure:
- add struct can_skb_ext in new file include/net/can.h
- add include/net/can.h in MAINTAINERS
- add SKB_EXT_CAN to skbuff.c and skbuff.h
- select SKB_EXTENSIONS in Kconfig when CONFIG_CAN is enabled
- check for existing CAN skb extensions in can_rcv() in af_can.c
- add CAN skb extensions allocation at every skb_alloc() location
- duplicate the skb extensions if cloning outgoing skbs (framelen/gw_hops)
- introduce can_skb_ext_add() and can_skb_ext_find() helpers
The patch also corrects an indention issue in the original code from 2018:

The udp GRO complete stage assumes that all the packets inserted the RX
have the `encapsulation` flag zeroed. Such assumption is not true, as a
few H/W NICs can set such flag when H/W offloading the checksum for
an UDP encapsulated traffic, the tun driver can inject GSO packets with
UDP encapsulation and the problematic layout can also be created via
a veth based setup.
Due to the above, in the problematic scenarios, udp4_gro_complete() uses
the wrong network offset (inner instead of outer) to compute the outer
UDP header pseudo checksum, leading to csum validation errors later on
in packet processing.
Address the issue always clearing the encapsulation flag at GRO completion
time. Such flag will be set again as needed for encapsulated packets by
udp_gro_complete().

Yin Fengwei reported an RCU stall in ptype_seq_show() and provided
a patch.
Real issue is that ptype_seq_next() and ptype_seq_show() violate
RCU rules.
ptype_seq_show() runs under rcu_read_lock(), and reads pt->dev
to get device name without any barrier.
At the same time, concurrent writers can remove a packet_type structure
(which is correctly freed after an RCU grace period) and clear pt->dev
without an RCU grace period.
Define ptype_iter_state to carry a dev pointer along seq_net_private:
struct ptype_iter_state {
struct seq_net_private p;
struct net_device *dev; // added in this patch
};
We need to record the device pointer in ptype_get_idx() and
ptype_seq_next() so that ptype_seq_show() is safe against
concurrent pt->dev changes.
We also need to add full RCU protection in ptype_seq_next().
(Missing READ_ONCE() when reading list.next values)
Many thanks to Dong Chenchen for providing a repro.

RPS cpumask can be overriden through sysfs/syctl. The boot defined
isolated CPUs are then excluded from that cpumask.
However HK_TYPE_DOMAIN will soon integrate cpuset isolated
CPUs updates and the RPS infrastructure needs more thoughts to be able
to propagate such changes and synchronize against them.
Keep handling only what was passed through "isolcpus=" for now.

After linkwatch_do_dev() calls __dev_put() to release the linkwatch
reference, the device refcount may drop to 1. At this point,
netdev_run_todo() can proceed (since linkwatch_sync_dev() sees an
empty list and returns without blocking), wait for the refcount to
become 1 via netdev_wait_allrefs_any(), and then free the device
via kobject_put().
This creates a use-after-free when __linkwatch_run_queue() tries to
call netdev_unlock_ops() on the already-freed device.
Note that adding netdev_lock_ops()/netdev_unlock_ops() pair in
netdev_run_todo() before kobject_put() would not work, because
netdev_lock_ops() is conditional - it only locks when
netdev_need_ops_lock() returns true. If the device doesn't require
ops_lock, linkwatch won't hold any lock, and netdev_run_todo()
acquiring the lock won't provide synchronization.
Fix this by moving __dev_put() from linkwatch_do_dev() to its
callers. The device reference logically pairs with de-listing the
device, so it's reasonable for the caller that did the de-listing
to release it. This allows placing __dev_put() after all device
accesses are complete, preventing UAF.
The bug can be reproduced by adding mdelay(2000) after
linkwatch_do_dev() in __linkwatch_run_queue(), then running:
ip tuntap add mode tun name tun_test
ip link set tun_test up
ip link set tun_test carrier off
ip link set tun_test carrier on
sleep 0.5
ip tuntap del mode tun name tun_test

While making some maps in Cilium read-only from the BPF side, we noticed
that the bpf_xdp_store_bytes proto is incorrect. In particular, the
verifier was throwing the following error:
; ret = ctx_store_bytes(ctx, l3_off + offsetof(struct iphdr, saddr),
&nat->address, 4, 0);

638: (b4) w5 = 0 ; R5=0
639: (85) call bpf_xdp_store_bytes#190

nat comes from a BPF_F_RDONLY_PROG map, so R3 is a PTR_TO_MAP_VALUE.
The verifier checks the helper's memory access to R3 in
check_mem_size_reg, as it reaches ARG_CONST_SIZE argument. The third
argument has expected type ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM, which includes the
MEM_WRITE flag. The verifier thus checks for a BPF_WRITE access on R3.
Given R3 points to a read-only map, the check fails.
Conversely, ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM can also lead to the helper reading
from uninitialized memory.
This patch simply fixes the expected argument type to match that of
bpf_skb_store_bytes.

Gal reports that BPF redirect increments dev->stats.tx_errors
on failure. This is not correct, most modern drivers completely
ignore dev->stats so these drops will be invisible to the user.
Core code should use the dedicated core stats which are folded
into device stats in dev_get_stats().
Note that we're switching from tx_errors to tx_dropped.
Core only has tx_dropped, hence presumably users already expect
that counter to increment for "stack" Tx issues.

By default, when a kmem_cache is created with SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU,
slub has to use extra storage for the freelist pointer after each
object, because slub assumes that any bit in the object
can be used by RCU readers.
Because proto_register() is also using SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN,
this forces slub to use one extra cache line per object.
We can instead put the slub freelist anywhere in the object,
granted the concurrent RCU readers are not supposed to
use the pointer value.
Add a new (struct sock)sk_freeptr field, in an union
with sk_rcu: No RCU readers would need to look at sk_rcu,
which is only used at free phase.

This patch enhances GSO segment handling by properly checking
the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for frag_list GSO packets, addressing
low throughput issues observed when a station accesses IPv4
servers via hotspots with an IPv6-only upstream interface.
Specifically, it fixes a bug in GSO segmentation when forwarding
GRO packets containing a frag_list. The function skb_segment_list
cannot correctly process GRO skbs that have been converted by XLAT,
since XLAT only translates the header of the head skb. Consequently,
skbs in the frag_list may remain untranslated, resulting in protocol
inconsistencies and reduced throughput.
To address this, the patch explicitly sets the SKB_GSO_DODGY flag
for GSO packets in XLAT's IPv4/IPv6 protocol translation helpers
(bpf_skb_proto_4_to_6 and bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4). This marks GSO
packets as potentially modified after protocol translation. As a
result, GSO segmentation will avoid using skb_segment_list and
instead falls back to skb_segment for packets with the SKB_GSO_DODGY
flag. This ensures that only safe and fully translated frag_list
packets are processed by skb_segment_list, resolving protocol
inconsistencies and improving throughput when forwarding GRO packets
converted by XLAT.

A socket using sockmap has its own independent receive queue: ingress_msg.
This queue may contain data from its own protocol stack or from other
sockets.
Therefore, for sockmap, relying solely on copied_seq and rcv_nxt to
calculate FIONREAD is not enough.
This patch adds a new msg_tot_len field in the psock structure to record
the data length in ingress_msg. Additionally, we implement new ioctl
interfaces for TCP and UDP to intercept FIONREAD operations.
Note that we intentionally do not include sk_receive_queue data in the
FIONREAD result. Data in sk_receive_queue has not yet been processed by
the BPF verdict program, and may be redirected to other sockets or
dropped. Including it would create semantic ambiguity since this data
may never be readable by the user.
Unix and VSOCK sockets have similar issues, but fixing them is outside
the scope of this patch as it would require more intrusive changes.
Previous work by John Fastabend made some efforts towards FIONREAD support:
commit e5c6de5fa0 ("bpf, sockmap: Incorrectly handling copied_seq")
Although the current patch is based on the previous work by John Fastabend,
it is acceptable for our Fixes tag to point to the same commit.

A socket using sockmap has its own independent receive queue: ingress_msg.
This queue may contain data from its own protocol stack or from other
sockets.
The issue is that when reading from ingress_msg, we update tp->copied_seq
by default. However, if the data is not from its own protocol stack,
tcp->rcv_nxt is not increased. Later, if we convert this socket to a
native socket, reading from this socket may fail because copied_seq might
be significantly larger than rcv_nxt.
This fix also addresses the syzkaller-reported bug referenced in the
Closes tag.
This patch marks the skmsg objects in ingress_msg. When reading, we update
copied_seq only if the data is from its own protocol stack.

Similarly to the issue from the previous patch, neigh_timer_handler() also
updates the neighbor separately from formatting and sending the netlink
notification message. We have not seen reports to the effect of this
causing trouble, but in theory, the same sort of issues could have come up:
neigh_timer_handler() would make changes as necessary, but before
formatting and sending a notification, is interrupted before sending by
another thread, which makes a parallel change and sends its own message.
The message send that is prompted by an earlier change thus contains
information that does not reflect the change having been made.
To solve this, the netlink notification needs to be in the same critical
section that updates the neighbor. The critical section is ended by the
neigh_probe() call which drops the lock before calling solicit. Stretching
the critical section over the solicit call is problematic, because that can
then involved all sorts of forwarding callbacks. Therefore, like in the
previous patch, split the netlink notification away from the internal one
and move it ahead of the probe call.

As noted in a previous patch, one race remains in the current code. A
kernel thread might interrupt a userspace thread after the change is done,
but before formatting and sending the message. Then what we would see is
two messages with the same contents:
userspace thread kernel thread
================ =============
neigh_update
write_lock_bh(n->lock)
n->nud_state = STALE
write_unlock_bh(n->lock)
-------------------------->
neigh:update
write_lock_bh(n->lock)
n->nud_state = REACHABLE
write_unlock_bh(n->lock)
neigh_notify
read_lock_bh(n->lock)
__neigh_fill_info
ndm->nud_state = REACHABLE
rtnl_notify
read_unlock_bh(n->lock)
RTNL REACHABLE sent
<--------
neigh_notify
read_lock_bh(n->lock)
__neigh_fill_info
ndm->nud_state = REACHABLE
rtnl_notify
read_unlock_bh(n->lock)
RTNL REACHABLE sent again
The solution is to send the netlink message inside the critical section
where the neighbor is changed, so that it reflects the notified-upon
neighbor state.
To that end, in __neigh_update(), move the current neigh_notify() call up
to said critical section, and convert it to __neigh_notify(), because the
lock is held. This motion crosses calls to neigh_update_managed_list(),
neigh_update_gc_list() and neigh_update_process_arp_queue(), all of which
potentially unlock and give an opportunity for the above race.
This also crosses a call to neigh_update_process_arp_queue() which calls
neigh->output(), which might be neigh_resolve_output() calls
neigh_event_send() calls neigh_event_send_probe() calls
__neigh_event_send() calls neigh_probe(), which touches neigh->probes,
an update which will now not be visible in the notification.
However, there is indication that there is no promise that these changes
will be accurately projected to notifications: fib6_table_lookup()
indirectly calls route.c's find_match() calls rt6_probe(), which looks up a
neighbor and call __neigh_set_probe_once(), which sets neigh->probes to 0,
but neither this nor the caller seems to send a notification.
Additionally, the neighbor object that the neigh_probe() mentioned above is
called on, might be the alternative neighbor looked up for the ARP queue
packet destination. If that is the case, the changed value of n1->probes is
not notified anywhere.
So at least in some circumstances, the reported number of probes needs to
be assumed to change without notification.

The netlink message needs to be send inside the critical section where the
neighbor is changed, so that it reflects the notified-upon neighbor state.
On the other hand, there is no such need in case of notifier chain: the
listeners do not assume lock, and often in fact just schedule a delayed
work to act on the neighbor later. At least one in fact also takes the
neighbor lock.
This requires that the netlink notification be done before the internal
notifier chain message is sent. That is safe to do, because the current
listeners, as well as __neigh_notify(), only read the updated neighbor
fields, and never modify them. (Apart from locking.)

The obvious idea behind the helper is to keep together the two bits that
should be done either both or neither: the internal notifier chain message,
and the netlink notification.
To make sure that the notification sent reflects the change being made, the
netlink message needs to be send inside the critical section where the
neighbor is changed. But for the notifier chain, there is no such need: the
listeners do not assume lock, and often in fact just schedule a delayed
work to act on the neighbor later. At least one in fact also takes the
neighbor lock. Therefore these two items have each different locking needs.
Now we could unlock inside the helper, but I find that error prone, and the
fact that the notification is conditional in the first place does not help
to make the call site obvious.
So in this patch, the helper is instead removed and the body, which is just
these two calls, inlined. That way we can use each notifier independently.

ARP queue processing unlocks the neighbor lock, which can allow another
thread to asynchronously perform a neighbor update and send an out of order
notification. Therefore this needs to be done after the notification is
sent.
Move it just before the end of the critical section. Since
neigh_update_process_arp_queue() unlocks, it does not form a part of the
critical section anymore but it can benefit from the lock being taken. The
intention is to eventually do the RTNL notification before this call.
This motion crosses a call to neigh_update_is_router(), which should not
influence processing of the ARP queue.

In this scenario, the kernel neigh is updated first to STALE and
then REACHABLE but the netlink notifications are sent out of order,
first REACHABLE and then STALE.
The solution is to send the netlink message inside the same critical
section that formats the message. That way both the contents and ordering
of the message reflect the same state, and we cannot see the abovementioned
out-of-order delivery.
Even with this patch, a remaining issue that the contents of the message
may not reflect the changes made to the neighbor. A kernel thread might
still interrupt a userspace thread after the change is done, but before
formatting and sending the message. Then what we would see is two messages
with the same contents. The following patches will attempt to address that
issue.
To support those future patches, convert __neigh_notify() to a helper that
assumes that the neighbor lock is already taken by having it call
__neigh_fill_info() instead of neigh_fill_info(). Add a new helper,
neigh_notify(), which takes the lock before calling __neigh_notify().
Migrate all callers to use the latter.

The netlink message needs to be formatted and sent inside the critical
section where the neighbor is changed, so that it reflects the
notified-upon neighbor state. Because it will happen inside an already
existing critical section, it has to assume that the neighbor lock is held.
Add a helper __neigh_fill_info(), which is like neigh_fill_info(), but
makes this assumption. Convert neigh_fill_info() to a wrapper around this
new helper.

I imagine (tm) that as the number of per-queue configuration
options grows some of them may conflict for certain drivers.
While the drivers can obviously do all the validation locally
doing so is fairly inconvenient as the config is fed to drivers
piecemeal via different ops (for different params and NIC-wide
vs per-queue).
Add a centralized callback for validating the queue config
in queue ops. The callback gets invoked before memory provider
is installed, and in the future should also be called when ring
params are modified.
The validation is done after each layer of configuration.
Since we can't fail MP un-binding we must make sure that
the config is valid both before and after MP overrides are
applied. This is moot for now since the set of MP and device
configs are disjoint. It will matter significantly in the future,
so adding it now so that we don't forget..

We should follow the prepare/commit approach for queue configuration.
The qcfg struct should be added to dev->cfg rather than directly to
queue objects so that we can clone and discard the pending config
easily.
Remove the qcfg in struct netdev_rx_queue, and switch remaining callers
to netdev_queue_config(). netdev_queue_config() will construct the qcfg
on the fly based on device defaults and state of the queue.
ndo_default_qcfg becomes optional because having the callback itself
does not have any meaningful semantics to us.

Some/most devices implementing gso_partial need to disable the GSO partial
features when the IP ID can't be mangled; to that extend each of them
implements something alike the following[1]:
if (skb->encapsulation && !(features & NETIF_F_TSO_MANGLEID))
features &= ~NETIF_F_TSO;
in the ndo_features_check() op, which leads to a bit of duplicate code.
Later patch in the series will implement GSO partial support for virtual
devices, and the current status quo will require more duplicate code and
a new indirect call in the TX path for them.
Introduce the mangleid_features mask, allowing the core to disable NIC
features based on/requiring MANGLEID, without any further intervention
from the driver.
The same functionality could be alternatively implemented adding a single
boolean flag to the struct net_device, but would require an additional
checks in ndo_features_check().
Also note that [1] is incorrect if the NIC additionally implements
NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_L4, mangleid_features transparently handle even such a
case.

Pavel Begunkov says:
====================
Add support for providers with large rx buffer
Many modern NICs support configurable receive buffer lengths, and zcrx and
memory providers can use buffers larger than 4K to improve performance.
When paired with hw-gro larger rx buffer sizes can drastically reduce
the number of buffers traversing the stack and save a lot of processing
time. It also allows to give to users larger contiguous chunks of data.
Single stream benchmarks showed up to ~30% CPU util improvement.
E.g. comparison for 4K vs 32K buffers using a 200Gbit NIC:
packets=23987040 (MB=2745098), rps=199559 (MB/s=22837)
CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %idle
0 1.53 0.00 27.78 2.72 1.31 66.45 0.22
packets=24078368 (MB=2755550), rps=200319 (MB/s=22924)
CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %idle
0 0.69 0.00 8.26 31.65 1.83 57.00 0.57
This series adds net infrastructure for memory providers configuring
the size and implements it for bnxt. It's an opt-in feature for drivers,
they should advertise support for the parameter in the qops and must check
if the hardware supports the given size. It's limited to memory providers
as it drastically simplifies implementation. It doesn't affect the fast
path zcrx uAPI, and the user exposed parameter is defined in zcrx terms,
which allows it to be flexible and adjusted in the future.

After commit 37cce22dbd ("bpf: verifier: Refactor helper access type tracking"),
the verifier started relying on the access type flags in helper
function prototypes to perform memory access optimizations.
Currently, several helper functions utilizing ARG_PTR_TO_MEM lack the
corresponding MEM_RDONLY or MEM_WRITE flags. This omission causes the
verifier to incorrectly assume that the buffer contents are unchanged
across the helper call. Consequently, the verifier may optimize away
subsequent reads based on this wrong assumption, leading to correctness
issues.
For bpf_get_stack_proto_raw_tp, the original MEM_RDONLY was incorrect
since the helper writes to the buffer. Change it to ARG_PTR_TO_UNINIT_MEM
which correctly indicates write access to potentially uninitialized memory.
Similar issues were recently addressed for specific helpers in commit
ac44dcc788 ("bpf: Fix verifier assumptions of bpf_d_path's output buffer")
and commit 2eb7648558 ("bpf: Specify access type of bpf_sysctl_get_name args").
Fix these prototypes by adding the correct memory access flags.

When a process in a container wants to setup a memory provider, it will
use the virtual netdev and a leased rxq, and call net_mp_{open,close}_rxq
to try and restart the queue. At this point, proxy the queue restart on

For memory providers (io_uring zero-copy rx and devmem), it causes the

Add a ynl netdev family operation called queue-create that creates a
new queue on a netdevice:
name: queue-create
attribute-set: queue
flags: [admin-perm]
do:
request:
attributes:
- ifindex
- type
- lease
reply: &queue-create-op
attributes:
- id
This is a generic operation such that it can be extended for various
use cases in future. Right now it is mandatory to specify ifindex,
the queue type which is enforced to rx and a lease. The newly created
queue id is returned to the caller.
A queue from a virtual device can have a lease which refers to another
queue from a physical device. This is useful for memory providers
and AF_XDP operations which take an ifindex and queue id to allow
applications to bind against virtual devices in containers. The lease
couples both queues together and allows to proxy the operations from
a virtual device in a container to the physical device.
In future, the nested lease attribute can be lifted and made optional
for other use-cases such as dynamic queue creation for physical
netdevs. The lack of lease and the specification of the physical
device as an ifindex will imply that we need a real queue to be
allocated. Similarly, the queue type enforcement to rx can then be
lifted as well to support tx.
An early implementation had only driver-specific integration [0], but
in order for other virtual devices to reuse, it makes sense to have
this as a generic API in core net.
For leasing queues, the virtual netdev must have real_num_rx_queue
less than num_rx_queues at the time of calling queue-create. The
queue-type must be rx as only rx queues are supported for leasing
for now. We also enforce that the queue-create ifindex must point
to a virtual device, and that the nested lease attribute's ifindex
must point to a physical device. The nested lease attribute set
contains a netns-id attribute which is currently only intended for
dumping as part of the queue-get operation. Also, it is modeled as
an s32 type similarly as done elsewhere in the stack.

Allow memory providers to configure rx queues with a custom receive
page size. It's passed in struct pp_memory_provider_params, which is
copied into the queue, so it's preserved across queue restarts. Then,
it's propagated to the driver in a new queue config parameter.
Drivers should explicitly opt into using it by setting
QCFG_RX_PAGE_SIZE, in which case they should implement ndo_default_qcfg,
validate the size on queue restart and honour the current config in case
of a reset.

We'll need to pass extra parameters when allocating a queue for memory
providers. Define a new structure for queue configurations, and pass it
to qapi callbacks. It's empty for now, actual parameters will be added
in following patches.
Configurations should persist across resets, and for that they're
default-initialised on device registration and stored in struct
netdev_rx_queue. We also add a new qapi callback for defaulting a given
config. It must be implemented if a driver wants to use queue configs
and is optional otherwise.

In blamed commit, I added a check against the temporary queue
built in __dev_xmit_skb(). Idea was to drop packets early,
before any spinlock was acquired.
if (unlikely(defer_count > READ_ONCE(q->limit))) {
kfree_skb_reason(skb, SKB_DROP_REASON_QDISC_DROP);
return NET_XMIT_DROP;
}
It turned out that HTB Qdisc has a zero q->limit.
HTB limits packets on a per-class basis.
Some of our tests became flaky.
Add a new sysctl : net.core.qdisc_max_burst to control
how many packets can be stored in the temporary lockless queue.
Also add a new QDISC_BURST_DROP drop reason to better diagnose
future issues.
Thanks Neal !

clang is unable to inline the memset() calls in net/core/skbuff.c
when initializing allocated sk_buff.
memset(skb, 0, offsetof(struct sk_buff, tail));
This is unfortunate, because:
1) calling external memset_orig() helper adds a call/ret and
typical setup cost.
2) offsetof(struct sk_buff, tail) == 0xb8 = 0x80 + 0x38
On x86_64, memset_orig() performs two 64 bytes clear,
then has to loop 7 times to clear the final 56 bytes.
skbuff_clear() makes sure the minimal and optimal code
is generated.

When skb_segment_list() is called during packet forwarding, it handles
packets that were aggregated by the GRO engine.
Historically, the segmentation logic in skb_segment_list assumes that
individual segments are split from a parent SKB and may need to carry
their own socket memory accounting. Accordingly, the code transfers
truesize from the parent to the newly created segments.
Prior to commit ed4cccef64 ("gro: fix ownership transfer"), this
truesize subtraction in skb_segment_list() was valid because fragments
still carry a reference to the original socket.
However, commit ed4cccef64 ("gro: fix ownership transfer") changed
this behavior by ensuring that fraglist entries are explicitly
orphaned (skb->sk = NULL) to prevent illegal orphaning later in the
stack. This change meant that the entire socket memory charge remained
with the head SKB, but the corresponding accounting logic in
skb_segment_list() was never updated.
As a result, the current code unconditionally adds each fragment's
truesize to delta_truesize and subtracts it from the parent SKB. Since
the fragments are no longer charged to the socket, this subtraction
results in an effective under-count of memory when the head is freed.
This causes sk_wmem_alloc to remain non-zero, preventing socket
destruction and leading to a persistent memory leak.
The leak can be observed via KMEMLEAK when tearing down the networking
environment:
unreferenced object 0xffff8881e6eb9100 (size 2048):
comm "ping", pid 6720, jiffies 4295492526
backtrace:
kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x5c6/0x800
sk_prot_alloc+0x5b/0x220
sk_alloc+0x35/0xa00
inet6_create.part.0+0x303/0x10d0
__sock_create+0x248/0x640
__sys_socket+0x11b/0x1d0
Since skb_segment_list() is exclusively used for SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST
packets constructed by GRO, the truesize adjustment is removed.
The call to skb_release_head_state() must be preserved. As documented in
commit cf673ed0e0 ("net: fix fraglist segmentation reference count
leak"), it is still required to correctly drop references to SKB
extensions that may be overwritten during __copy_skb_header().

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Unify how task_work cancelations are detected, placing it in the
task_work running state rather than needing to check the task state
- Series cleaning up and moving the cancelation code to where it
belongs, in cancel.c
- Cleanup of waitid and futex argument handling
- Add support for mixed sized SQEs. 6.18 added support for mixed sized
CQEs, improving flexibility and efficiency of workloads that need big
CQEs. This adds similar support for SQEs, where the occasional need
for a 128b SQE doesn't necessitate having all SQEs be 128b in size
- Introduce zcrx and SQ/CQ layout queries. The former returns what zcrx
features are available. And both return the ring size information to
help with allocation size calculation for user provided rings like
IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP and IORING_MEM_REGION_TYPE_USER
- Zcrx updates for 6.19. It includes a bunch of small patches,
IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_CTRL and RQ flushing and David's work on sharing
zcrx b/w multiple io_uring instances
- Series cleaning up ring initializations, notable deduplicating ring
size and offset calculations. It also moves most of the checking
before doing any allocations, making the code simpler
- Add support for getsockname and getpeername, which is mostly a
trivial hookup after a bit of refactoring on the networking side
- Various fixes and cleanups

Core & protocols
----------------
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.

Access to user mode memory can be required in hot code paths, but if it

with a speculation barrier, so that the CPU cannot speculate around the
address range check. Those speculation barriers impact performance quite
significantly. This can be avoided by "masking" the provided pointer so
it is guaranteed to be in the valid user memory access range and

to be done without branches so it creates an address dependency for the
access, which the CPU cannot speculate ahead.
This results in repeating and error prone programming patterns:

unsafe_get_user(val, from, Efault);
return 0;
Efault:
return -EFAULT;
- Convert code which implements the above pattern over to
scope_user.*.access(). This also corrects a couple of imbalanced
masked_*_begin() instances which are harmless on most architectures, but
prevent PowerPC from implementing the masking optimization.

Merge tag 'namespace-6.19-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial namespace infrastructure changes including a new
system call, active reference counting, and extensive header cleanups.
The branch depends on the shared kbuild branch for -fms-extensions support.
Features:
- listns() system call
Add a new listns() system call that allows userspace to iterate
through namespaces in the system. This provides a programmatic
interface to discover and inspect namespaces, addressing
longstanding limitations:
Currently, there is no direct way for userspace to enumerate
namespaces. Applications must resort to scanning /proc/*/ns/ across
all processes, which is:
- Inefficient - requires iterating over all processes
- Incomplete - misses namespaces not attached to any running
process but kept alive by file descriptors, bind mounts, or
parent references
- Permission-heavy - requires access to /proc for many processes
- No ordering or ownership information
- No filtering per namespace type
The listns() system call solves these problems:
ssize_t listns(const struct ns_id_req *req, u64 *ns_ids,
size_t nr_ns_ids, unsigned int flags);
struct ns_id_req {
__u32 size;
__u32 spare;
__u64 ns_id;
struct /* listns */ {
__u32 ns_type;
__u32 spare2;
__u64 user_ns_id;
};
};
Features include:
- Pagination support for large namespace sets
- Filtering by namespace type (MNT_NS, NET_NS, USER_NS, etc.)
- Filtering by owning user namespace
- Permission checks respecting namespace isolation
- Active Reference Counting
Introduce an active reference count that tracks namespace
visibility to userspace. A namespace is visible in the following
cases:
- The namespace is in use by a task
- The namespace is persisted through a VFS object (namespace file
descriptor or bind-mount)
- The namespace is a hierarchical type and is the parent of child
namespaces
The active reference count does not regulate lifetime (that's still
done by the normal reference count) - it only regulates visibility
to namespace file handles and listns().
This prevents resurrection of namespaces that are pinned only for
internal kernel reasons (e.g., user namespaces held by
file->f_cred, lazy TLB references on idle CPUs, etc.) which should
not be accessible via (1)-(3).
- Unified Namespace Tree
Introduce a unified tree structure for all namespaces with:
- Fixed IDs assigned to initial namespaces
- Lookup based solely on inode number
- Maintained list of owned namespaces per user namespace
- Simplified rbtree comparison helpers
Cleanups
- Header Reorganization:
- Move namespace types into separate header (ns_common_types.h)
- Decouple nstree from ns_common header
- Move nstree types into separate header
- Switch to new ns_tree_{node,root} structures with helper functions
- Use guards for ns_tree_lock
- Initial Namespace Reference Count Optimization
- Make all reference counts on initial namespaces a nop to avoid
pointless cacheline ping-pong for namespaces that can never go
away
- Drop custom reference count initialization for initial namespaces
- Add NS_COMMON_INIT() macro and use it for all namespaces
- pid: rely on common reference count behavior
- Miscellaneous Cleanups
- Rename exit_task_namespaces() to exit_nsproxy_namespaces()
- Rename is_initial_namespace() and make argument const
- Use boolean to indicate anonymous mount namespace
- Simplify owner list iteration in nstree
- nsfs: raise SB_I_NODEV, SB_I_NOEXEC, and DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- nsfs: use inode_just_drop()
- pidfs: raise DCACHE_DONTCACHE explicitly
- pidfs: simplify PIDFD_GET__NAMESPACE ioctls
- libfs: allow to specify s_d_flags
- cgroup: add cgroup namespace to tree after owner is set
- nsproxy: fix free_nsproxy() and simplify create_new_namespaces()
Fixes:
- setns(pidfd, ...) race condition
Fix a subtle race when using pidfds with setns(). When the target
task exits after prepare_nsset() but before commit_nsset(), the
namespace's active reference count might have been dropped. If
setns() then installs the namespaces, it would bump the active
reference count from zero without taking the required reference on
the owner namespace, leading to underflow when later decremented.
The fix resurrects the ownership chain if necessary - if the caller
succeeded in grabbing passive references, the setns() should
succeed even if the target task exits or gets reaped.
- Return EFAULT on put_user() error instead of success
- Make sure references are dropped outside of RCU lock (some
namespaces like mount namespace sleep when putting the last
reference)
- Don't skip active reference count initialization for network
namespace
- Add asserts for active refcount underflow
- Add asserts for initial namespace reference counts (both passive
and active)
- ipc: enable is_ns_init_id() assertions
- Fix kernel-doc comments for internal nstree functions
- Selftests
- 15 active reference count tests
- 9 listns() functionality tests
- 7 listns() permission tests

Prevent a kernel warning when netconsole setup fails on devices with
IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL flag. The warning (at kernel/workqueue.c:4242 in
__flush_work) occurs because the cleanup path tries to cancel an
uninitialized work queue.
When __netpoll_setup() encounters a device with IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL,
it fails early and calls skb_pool_flush() for cleanup. This function
calls cancel_work_sync(&np->refill_wq), but refill_wq hasn't been
initialized yet, triggering the warning.
Move INIT_WORK() to the beginning of __netpoll_setup(), ensuring the
work queue is properly initialized before any potential failure points.
This allows the cleanup path to safely cancel the work queue regardless
of where the setup fails.

Commit e20dfbad8a ("net: fix napi_consume_skb() with alien skbs")
added a skb->cpu check to napi_consume_skb(), before the point where
napi_consume_skb() validated skb is not NULL.

Some qdisc like cake, codel, fq_codel might drop packets
in their dequeue() method.
This is currently problematic because dequeue() runs with
the qdisc spinlock held. Freeing skbs can be extremely expensive.
Add qdisc_dequeue_drop() method and a new TCQ_F_DEQUEUE_DROPS
so that these qdiscs can opt-in to defer the skb frees
after the socket spinlock is released.
TCQ_F_DEQUEUE_DROPS is an attempt to not penalize other qdiscs
with an extra cache line miss.

- Replace NAPI_SKB_CACHE_HALF with NAPI_SKB_CACHE_FREE
- Only free 32 skbs in napi_skb_cache_put()
Since the first patch adjusting NAPI_SKB_CACHE_SIZE to 128, the number
of packets to be freed in the softirq was increased from 32 to 64.
Considering a subsequent net_rx_action() calling napi_poll() a few
times can easily consume the 64 available slots and we can afford
keeping a higher value of sk_buffs in per-cpu storage, decrease
NAPI_SKB_CACHE_FREE to 32 like before. So now the logic is 1) keeping
96 skbs, 2) freeing 32 skbs at one time.

This is a followup of commit e20dfbad8a ("net: fix napi_consume_skb()

Now the per-cpu napi_skb_cache is populated from TX completion path,
we can make use of this cache, especially for cpus not used
from a driver NAPI poll (primary user of napi_cache).
We can use the napi_skb_cache only if current context is not from hard irq.
With this patch, I consistently reach 130 Mpps on my UDP tx stress test
and reduce SLUB spinlock contention to smaller values.
Note there is still some SLUB contention for skb->head allocations.
I had to tune /sys/kernel/slab/skbuff_small_head/cpu_partial

The bpf_skb_check_mtu helper needs to use skb->transport_header when
the BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS flag is used:
bpf_skb_check_mtu(skb, ifindex, &mtu_len, 0, BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS)
The transport_header is not always set. There is a WARN_ON_ONCE
report when CONFIG_DEBUG_NET is enabled + skb->gso_size is set +
bpf_prog_test_run is used:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 2216 at ./include/linux/skbuff.h:3071

is performed but there is plan to avoid setting it as described in
commit 2170a1f091 ("net: no longer reset transport_header in __netif_receive_skb_core()").
This patch fixes the bpf helper by checking
skb_transport_header_was_set(). The check is done just before
skb->transport_header is used, to avoid breaking the existing bpf prog.
The WARN_ON_ONCE is limited to bpf_prog_test_run, so targeting bpf-next.

tsconfig_prepare_data() ->
dev_get_hwtstamp_phylib() ->
vlan_hwtstamp_get() ->
generic_hwtstamp_get_lower() ->
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()
results in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() being called with
kernel_cfg->ifr as NULL.
The generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() function does not expect
a NULL ifr and dereferences it, leading to a system crash.
Fix this by adding a NULL check for kernel_cfg->ifr in
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower(). If ifr is NULL, return -EINVAL.

Since Eric proposed an idea about adding indirect call wrappers for
UDP and managed to see a huge improvement[1], the same situation can
also be applied in xsk scenario.
This patch adds an indirect call for xsk and helps current copy mode
improve the performance by around 1% stably which was observed with
IXGBE at 10Gb/sec loaded. If the throughput grows, the positive effect
will be magnified. I applied this patch on top of batch xmit series[2],
and was able to see <5% improvement from our internal application
which is a little bit unstable though.
Use INDIRECT wrappers to keep xsk_destruct_skb static as it used to
be when the mitigation config is off.
Be aware of the freeing path that can be very hot since the frequency
can reach around 2,000,000 times per second with the xdpsock test.

commit efa95b01da ("netpoll: fix use after free") incorrectly
ignored the refcount and prematurely set dev->npinfo to NULL during
netpoll cleanup, leading to improper behavior and memory leaks.
Scenario causing lack of proper cleanup:
1) A netpoll is associated with a NIC (e.g., eth0) and netdev->npinfo is
allocated, and refcnt = 1
- Keep in mind that npinfo is shared among all netpoll instances. In
this case, there is just one.
2) Another netpoll is also associated with the same NIC and
npinfo->refcnt += 1.
- Now dev->npinfo->refcnt = 2;
- There is just one npinfo associated to the netdev.
3) When the first netpolls goes to clean up:
- The first cleanup succeeds and clears np->dev->npinfo, ignoring
refcnt.
- It basically calls `RCU_INIT_POINTER(np->dev->npinfo, NULL);`
- Set dev->npinfo = NULL, without proper cleanup
- No ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is either called
4) Now the second target tries to clean up
- The second cleanup fails because np->dev->npinfo is already NULL.
* In this case, ops->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() was never called, and
the skb pool is not cleaned as well (for the second netpoll
instance)
- This leaks npinfo and skbpool skbs, which is clearly reported by
kmemleak.
Revert commit efa95b01da ("netpoll: fix use after free") and adds
clarifying comments emphasizing that npinfo cleanup should only happen
once the refcount reaches zero, ensuring stable and correct netpoll
behavior.

skb_defer_free_flush() is becoming more important these days.
Add a prefetch operation to reduce latency a bit on some
platforms like AMD EPYC 7B12.
On more recent cpus, a stall happens when reading skb_shinfo().
Avoiding it will require a more elaborate strategy.

One GRO-cell device's NAPI callback can nest into the GRO-cell of
another device if the underlying device is also using GRO-cell.
This is the case for IPsec over vxlan.
These two GRO-cells are separate devices. From lockdep's point of view
it is the same because each device is sharing the same lock class and so
it reports a possible deadlock assuming one device is nesting into
itself.
Hold the bh_lock only while accessing gro_cell::napi_skbs in
gro_cell_poll(). This reduces the locking scope and avoids acquiring the
same lock class multiple times.

Fix a AA deadlock in refill_skbs() where memory allocation while holding
skb_pool->lock can trigger a recursive lock acquisition attempt.
The deadlock scenario occurs when the system is under severe memory
pressure:
1. refill_skbs() acquires skb_pool->lock (spinlock)
2. alloc_skb() is called while holding the lock
3. Memory allocator fails and calls slab_out_of_memory()
4. This triggers printk() for the OOM warning
5. The console output path calls netpoll_send_udp()
6. netpoll_send_udp() attempts to acquire the same skb_pool->lock
7. Deadlock: the lock is already held by the same CPU
Call stack:
refill_skbs()
spin_lock_irqsave(&skb_pool->lock) <- lock acquired
__alloc_skb()
kmem_cache_alloc_node_noprof()
slab_out_of_memory()
printk()
console_flush_all()
netpoll_send_udp()
skb_dequeue()
spin_lock_irqsave(&skb_pool->lock) <- deadlock attempt
This bug was exposed by commit 248f6571fd ("netpoll: Optimize skb
refilling on critical path") which removed refill_skbs() from the
critical path (where nested printk was being deferred), letting nested
printk being called from inside refill_skbs()
Refactor refill_skbs() to never allocate memory while holding
the spinlock.
Another possible solution to fix this problem is protecting the
refill_skbs() from nested printks, basically calling
printk_deferred_{enter,exit}() in refill_skbs(), then, any nested
pr_warn() would be deferred.
I prefer this approach, given I _think_ it might be a good idea to move
the alloc_skb() from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL in the future, so, having
the alloc_skb() outside of the lock will be necessary step.
There is a possible TOCTOU issue when checking for the pool length, and
queueing the new allocated skb, but, this is not an issue, given that
an extra SKB in the pool is harmless and it will be eventually used.

With socket/proto sockaddr-based internal APIs switched to use struct

Gathering interface statistics can be a relatively expensive operation
on certain systems as it requires iterating over all the cpus.
RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS was first introduced [1] to skip AF_INET6
statistics from interface dumps and it was then extended [2] to
also exclude IFLA_VF_INFO.
The semantics of the flag does not seem to be limited to AF_INET
or VF statistics and having a way to query the interface status
(e.g: carrier, address) without retrieving its statistics seems
reasonable. So this patch extends the use RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS
to also affect IFLA_STATS.

Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the

The initial set of namespace comes with fixed inode numbers making it
easy for userspace to identify them solely based on that information.
This has long preceeded anything here.
Similarly, let's assign fixed namespace ids for the initial namespaces.
Kill the cookie and use a sequentially increasing number. This has the
nice side-effect that the owning user namespace will always have a
namespace id that is smaller than any of it's descendant namespaces.

The zero-copy Device Memory (Devmem) transmit path
relies on the socket's route cache (`dst_entry`) to
validate that the packet is being sent via the network
device to which the DMA buffer was bound.
However, this check incorrectly fails and returns `-ENODEV`
if the socket's route cache entry (`dst`) is merely missing
or expired (`dst == NULL`). This scenario is observed during
network events, such as when flow steering rules are deleted,
leading to a temporary route cache invalidation.
This patch fixes -ENODEV error for `net_devmem_get_binding()`
by doing the following:
1. It attempts to rebuild the route via `rebuild_header()`
if the route is initially missing (`dst == NULL`). This
allows the TCP/IP stack to recover from transient route
cache misses.
2. It uses `rcu_read_lock()` and `dst_dev_rcu()` to safely
access the network device pointer (`dst_dev`) from the
route, preventing use-after-free conditions if the
device is concurrently removed.
3. It maintains the critical safety check by validating
that the retrieved destination device (`dst_dev`) is
exactly the device registered in the Devmem binding
(`binding->dev`).
These changes prevent unnecessary ENODEV failures while
maintaining the critical safety requirement that the
Devmem resources are only used on the bound network device.

Add the ability to append the incoming IP interface information to
ICMPv6 error messages in accordance with RFC 5837 and RFC 4884. This is
required for more meaningful traceroute results in unnumbered networks.
The feature is disabled by default and controlled via a new sysctl
("net.ipv6.icmp.errors_extension_mask") which accepts a bitmask of ICMP
extensions to append to ICMP error messages. Currently, only a single
value is supported, but the interface and the implementation should be
able to support more extensions, if needed.
Clone the skb and copy the relevant data portions before modifying the
skb as the caller of icmp6_send() still owns the skb after the function
returns. This should be fine since by default ICMP error messages are
rate limited to 1000 per second and no more than 1 per second per
specific host.
Trim or pad the packet to 128 bytes before appending the ICMP extension
structure in order to be compatible with legacy applications that assume
that the ICMP extension structure always starts at this offset (the
minimum length specified by RFC 4884).
Since commit 20e1954fe2 ("ipv6: RFC 4884 partial support for SIT/GRE
tunnels") it is possible for icmp6_send() to be called with an skb that
already contains ICMP extensions. This can happen when we receive an
ICMPv4 message with extensions from a tunnel and translate it to an
ICMPv6 message towards an IPv6 host in the overlay network. I could not
find an RFC that supports this behavior, but it makes sense to not
overwrite the original extensions that were appended to the packet.
Therefore, avoid appending extensions if the length field in the
provided ICMPv6 header is already filled.
Export netdev_copy_name() using EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() to make it
available to IPv6 when it is built as a module.

The problem is that in __bpf_skb_change_head() we need to reject a
negative head_room as otherwise this propagates all the way to the
pskb_expand_head() from skb_cow(). For example, if the BPF test infra
passes a skb with gso_skb:1 to the BPF helper with a negative head_room
of -22, then this gets passed into skb_cow(). __skb_cow() in this
example calculates a delta of -86 which gets aligned to -64, and then
triggers BUG_ON(nhead < 0). Thus, reject malformed negative input.

sctp_accept() will use sk_clone_lock(), but it will be called
with the parent socket locked, and sctp_migrate() acquires the
child lock later.
Let's add no lock version of sk_clone_lock().
Note that lockdep complains if we simply use bh_lock_sock_nested().

neightbl_set() fetches neigh_tables[] and updates attributes under
write_lock_bh(&tbl->lock), so RTNL is not needed.
neigh_table_clear() synchronises RCU only, and rcu_dereference_rtnl()
protects nothing here.
If we released RCU after fetching neigh_tables[], there would be no
synchronisation to block neigh_table_clear() further, so RCU is held
until the end of the function.
Another option would be to protect neigh_tables[] user with SRCU
and add synchronize_srcu() in neigh_table_clear().
But, holding RCU should be fine as we hold write_lock_bh() for the
rest of neightbl_set() anyway.
Let's perform RTM_SETNEIGHTBL under RCU and drop RTNL.

neightbl_dump_info() calls these functions for each neigh_tables[]
entry:
1. neightbl_fill_info() for tbl->parms
2. neightbl_fill_param_info() for tbl->parms_list (except tbl->parms)
Both functions rely on the table lock (read_lock_bh(&tbl->lock))
and RTNL is not needed.
Let's fetch the table under RCU and convert RTM_GETNEIGHTBL to RCU.
Note that the first entry of tbl->parms_list is tbl->parms.list and
embedded in neigh_table, so list_next_entry() is safe.

NEIGH_VAR() is read locklessly in the fast path, and IPv6 ndisc uses
NEIGH_VAR_SET() locklessly.
The next patch will convert neightbl_dump_info() to RCU.
Let's annotate accesses to neigh_param with READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE().
Note that ndisc_ifinfo_sysctl_change() uses &NEIGH_VAR() and we cannot
use '&' with READ_ONCE(), so NEIGH_VAR_PTR() is introduced.
Note also that NEIGH_VAR_INIT() does not need WRITE_ONCE() as it is before
parms is published. Also, the only user hippi_neigh_setup_dev() is no
longer called since commit e3804cbebb ("net: remove COMPAT_NET_DEV_OPS"),
which looks wrong, but probably no one uses HIPPI and RoadRunner.

Some protocols using TCP encapsulation (e.g., espintcp, openvpn) deliver
userspace-bound packets through a custom skb queue rather than the
standard sk_receive_queue.
Introduce datagram_poll_queue that accepts an explicit receive queue,
and convert datagram_poll into a wrapper around datagram_poll_queue.
This allows protocols with custom skb queues to reuse the core polling
logic without relying on sk_receive_queue.

Some high level software drivers need to compute features from lower
devices. But each has their own implementations and may lost some
feature compute. Let's use one common function to compute features
for kinds of these devices.
The new helper uses the current bond implementation as the reference
one, as the latter already handles all the relevant aspects: netdev
features, TSO limits and dst retention.

Cpus serving NIC interrupts and specifically TX completions are often
trapped in also restarting a busy qdisc (because qdisc was stopped by BQL
or the driver's own flow control).
When they call netdev_tx_completed_queue() or netif_tx_wake_queue(),
they call __netif_schedule() so that the queue can be run
later from net_tx_action() (involving NET_TX_SOFTIRQ)
Quite often, by the time the cpu reaches net_tx_action(), another cpu
grabbed the qdisc spinlock from __dev_xmit_skb(), and we spend too much
time spinning on this lock.
We can detect in __netif_schedule() if a cpu is already at a specific
point in __dev_xmit_skb() where we have the guarantee the queue will
be run.
This patch gives a 13 % increase of throughput on an IDPF NIC (200Gbit),
32 TX qeues, sending UDP packets of 120 bytes.
This also helps __qdisc_run() to not force a NET_TX_SOFTIRQ
if another thread is waiting in __dev_xmit_skb()

Yinhao et al. reported that their fuzzer tool was able to trigger a
skb_warn_bad_offload() from netif_skb_features() -> gso_features_check().
When a BPF program - triggered via BPF test infra - pushes the packet
to the loopback device via bpf_clone_redirect() then mentioned offload
warning can be seen. GSO-related features are then rightfully disabled.
We get into this situation due to convert___skb_to_skb() setting
gso_segs and gso_size but not gso_type. Technically, it makes sense
that this warning triggers since the GSO properties are malformed due
to the gso_type. Potentially, the gso_type could be marked non-trustworthy
through setting it at least to SKB_GSO_DODGY without any other specific
assumptions, but that also feels wrong given we should not go further
into the GSO engine in the first place.
The checks were added in 121d57af30 ("gso: validate gso_type in GSO
handlers") because there were malicious (syzbot) senders that combine
a protocol with a non-matching gso_type. If we would want to drop such
packets, gso_features_check() currently only returns feature flags via
netif_skb_features(), so one location for potentially dropping such skbs
could be validate_xmit_unreadable_skb(), but then otoh it would be
an additional check in the fast-path for a very corner case. Given
bpf_clone_redirect() is the only place where BPF test infra could emit
such packets, lets reject them right there.

Remove busylock spinlock and use a lockless list (llist)
to reduce spinlock contention to the minimum.
Idea is that only one cpu might spin on the qdisc spinlock,
while others simply add their skb in the llist.
After this patch, we get a 300 % improvement on heavy TX workloads.
- Sending twice the number of packets per second.
- While consuming 50 % less cycles.
Note that this also allows in the future to submit batches
to various qdisc->enqueue() methods.
Tested:
- Dual Intel(R) Xeon(R) 6985P-C (480 hyper threads).
- 100Gbit NIC, 30 TX queues with FQ packet scheduler.
- echo 64 >/sys/kernel/slab/skbuff_small_head/cpu_partial (avoid contention in mm)
- 240 concurrent "netperf -t UDP_STREAM -- -m 120 -n"

While stress testing UDP senders on a host with expensive indirect
calls, I found cpus processing TX completions where showing
a very high cost (20%) in sock_wfree() due to
CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE=y.
Take care of TCP and UDP TX destructors and use INDIRECT_CALL_3() macro.

Creating FDB entries is possible from a non-initial user namespace when
having CAP_NET_ADMIN, yet, when deleting FDB entries, processes receive
an EPERM because the capability is always checked against the initial
user namespace. This restricts the FDB management from unprivileged
containers.
Drop the netlink_capable check in rtnl_fdb_del as it was originally
dropped in c5c351088a and reintroduced in 1690be63a2 without
intention.
This patch was tested using a container on GyroidOS, where it was
possible to delete FDB entries from an unprivileged user namespace and
private network namespace.

Some network drivers assume this field is zero after napi_get_frags().
We must clear it in napi_reuse_skb() otherwise the following can happen:
1) A packet is received, and skb_shinfo(skb)->hwtstamps is populated
because a bit in the receive descriptor announced hwtstamp
availability for this packet.
2) Packet is given to gro layer via napi_gro_frags().
3) Packet is merged to a prior one held in GRO queues.
4) skb is saved after some cleanup in napi->skb via a call
to napi_reuse_skb().
5) Next packet is received 10 seconds later, gets the recycled skb
from napi_get_frags().
6) The receive descriptor does not announce hwtstamp availability.
Driver does not clear shinfo->hwtstamps.
7) We have in shinfo->hwtstamps an old timestamp.

If a socket has sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem flagged, the socket opts out
of the global protocol memory accounting.
This is easily controlled by net.core.bypass_prot_mem sysctl, but it
lacks flexibility.
Let's support flagging (and clearing) sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem via
bpf_setsockopt() at the BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE hook.
int val = 1;
bpf_setsockopt(ctx, SOL_SOCKET, SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM,
&val, sizeof(val));
As with net.core.bypass_prot_mem, this is inherited to child sockets,
and BPF always takes precedence over sysctl at socket(2) and accept(2).
SK_BPF_BYPASS_PROT_MEM is only supported at BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE
and not supported on other hooks for some reasons:
1. UDP charges memory under sk->sk_receive_queue.lock instead
of lock_sock()
2. Modifying the flag after skb is charged to sk requires such
adjustment during bpf_setsockopt() and complicates the logic
unnecessarily
We can support other hooks later if a real use case justifies that.
Most changes are inline and hard to trace, but a microbenchmark on
__sk_mem_raise_allocated() during neper/tcp_stream showed that more
samples completed faster with sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem == 1. This will
be more visible under tcp_mem pressure (but it's not a fair comparison).
# bpftrace -e 'kprobe:__sk_mem_raise_allocated { @start[tid] = nsecs; }

We will support flagging sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem via bpf_setsockopt()
at the BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE hook.
BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE is invoked by __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sk()
that passes a pointer to struct sock to the bpf prog as void *ctx.
But there are no bpf_func_proto for bpf_setsockopt() that receives
the ctx as a pointer to struct sock.
Also, bpf_getsockopt() will be necessary for a cgroup with multiple
bpf progs running.
Let's add new bpf_setsockopt() and bpf_getsockopt() variants for
BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE.
Note that inet_create() is not under lock_sock() and has the same
semantics with bpf_lsm_unlocked_sockopt_hooks.

Some protocols (e.g., TCP, UDP) implement memory accounting for socket
buffers and charge memory to per-protocol global counters pointed to by
sk->sk_proto->memory_allocated.
Sometimes, system processes do not want that limitation. For a similar
purpose, there is SO_RESERVE_MEM for sockets under memcg.
Also, by opting out of the per-protocol accounting, sockets under memcg
can avoid paying costs for two orthogonal memory accounting mechanisms.
A microbenchmark result is in the subsequent bpf patch.
Let's allow opt-out from the per-protocol memory accounting if
sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem is true.
sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem and sk->sk_prot are placed in the same cache
line, and sk_has_account() always fetches sk->sk_prot before accessing
sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem, so there is no extra cache miss for this patch.
The following patches will set sk->sk_bypass_prot_mem to true, and
then, the per-protocol memory accounting will be skipped.
Note that this does NOT disable memcg, but rather the per-protocol one.
Another option not to use the hole in struct sock_common is create
sk_prot variants like tcp_prot_bypass, but this would complicate
SOCKMAP logic, tcp_bpf_prots etc.

Michal reported and bisected an issue after recent adoption
of skb_attempt_defer_free() in UDP.
The issue here is that skb_release_head_state() is called twice per skb,
one time from skb_consume_udp(), then a second time from skb_defer_free_flush()
and napi_consume_skb().
As Sabrina suggested, remove skb_release_head_state() call from
skb_consume_udp().
Add a DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE(skb_nfct(skb)) in skb_attempt_defer_free()
Many thanks to Michal, Sabrina, Paolo and Florian for their help.

This is a followup of commit 726e9e8b94 ("tcp: refine
skb->ooo_okay setting") and of prior commit in this series
("net: control skb->ooo_okay from skb_set_owner_w()")
skb->ooo_okay might never be set for bulk flows that always
have at least one skb in a qdisc queue of NIC queue,
especially if TX completion is delayed because of a stressed cpu.
The so-called "strange attractors" has caused many performance
issues (see for instance 9b462d02d6 ("tcp: TCP Small Queues
and strange attractors")), we need to do better.
We have tried very hard to avoid reorders because TCP was
not dealing with them nicely a decade ago.
Use the new net.core.txq_reselection_ms sysctl to let
flows follow XPS and select a more efficient queue.
After this patch, we no longer have to make sure threads
are pinned to cpus, they now can be migrated without
adding too much spinlock/qdisc/TX completion pressure anymore.
TX completion part was problematic, because it added false sharing
on various socket fields, but also added false sharing and spinlock
contention in mm layers. Calling skb_orphan() from ndo_start_xmit()
is not an option unfortunately.
Note for later:
1) move sk->sk_tx_queue_mapping closer
to sk_tx_queue_mapping_jiffies for better cache locality.
2) Study if 9b462d02d6 ("tcp: TCP Small Queues
and strange attractors") could be revised.
Tested:
Used a host with 32 TX queues, shared by groups of 8 cores.
XPS setup :
echo ff >/sys/class/net/eth1/queue/tx-0/xps_cpus
echo ff00 >/sys/class/net/eth1/queue/tx-1/xps_cpus
echo ff0000 >/sys/class/net/eth1/queue/tx-2/xps_cpus

taskset -c 0-15 tcp_stream -T15 -F1000 -l1000 -c -H target_host
Checked that only queues 0 and 1 are used as instructed by XPS :

backlog 123489410b 1890p

Add a new sysctl to control how often a queue reselection
can happen even if a flow has a persistent queue of skbs
in a Qdisc or NIC queue.
A value of zero means the feature is disabled.
Default is 1000 (1 second).

15 years after Tom Herbert added skb->ooo_okay, only TCP transport
benefits from it.
We can support other transports directly from skb_set_owner_w().
If no other TX packet for this socket is in a host queue (qdisc, NIC queue)
there is no risk of self-inflicted reordering, we can set skb->ooo_okay.
This allows netdev_pick_tx() to choose a TX queue based on XPS settings,
instead of reusing the queue chosen at the time the first packet was sent
for connected sockets.
Tested:
500 concurrent UDP_RR connected UDP flows, host with 32 TX queues,
512 cpus, XPS setup.
super_netperf 500 -t UDP_RR -H <host> -l 1000 -- -r 100,100 -Nn &
This patch saves between 10% and 20% of cycles, depending on how
process scheduler migrates threads among cpus.
Using following bpftrace script, we can see the effect on Qdisc/NIC tx queues
being better used (less cache line misses).
bpftrace -e '
k:__dev_queue_xmit { @start[cpu] = nsecs; }
kr:__dev_queue_xmit {
if (@start[cpu]) {
$delay = nsecs - @start[cpu];
