net: sched: remove redundant 'rtnl_held' argument

2020-12-01T19:24:56Z

Functions tfilter_notify_chain() and tcf_get_next_proto() are always called with rtnl lock held in current implementation. Moreover, attempting to call them without rtnl lock would cause a warning down the call chain in function __tcf_get_next_proto() that requires the lock to be held by callers. Remove the 'rtnl_held' argument in order to simplify the code and make rtnl lock requirement explicit.

treewide: rename nla_strlcpy to nla_strscpy.

2020-11-16T16:08:54Z

Calls to nla_strlcpy are now replaced by calls to nla_strscpy which is the new name of this function. Signed-off-by: Francis Laniel Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

Modify return value of nla_strlcpy to match that of strscpy.

2020-11-16T16:08:54Z

nla_strlcpy now returns -E2BIG if src was truncated when written to dst. It also returns this error value if dstsize is 0 or higher than INT_MAX. For example, if src is "foo\0" and dst is 3 bytes long, the result will be: 1. "foG" after memcpy (G means garbage). 2. "fo\0" after memset. 3. -E2BIG is returned because src was not completely written into dst. The callers of nla_strlcpy were modified to take into account this modification.

net: sched: Do not drop root lock in tcf_qevent_handle()

2020-07-16T23:48:34Z

Mirred currently does not mix well with blocks executed after the qdisc root lock is taken. This includes classification blocks (such as in PRIO, ETS, DRR qdiscs) and qevents. The locking caused by the packet mirrored by mirred can cause deadlocks: either when the thread of execution attempts to take the lock a second time, or when two threads end up waiting on each other's locks. The qevent patchset attempted to not introduce further badness of this sort, and dropped the lock before executing the qevent block. However this lead to too little locking and races between qdisc configuration and packet enqueue in the RED qdisc. Before the deadlock issues are solved in a way that can be applied across many qdiscs reasonably easily, do for qevents what is done for the classification blocks and just keep holding the root lock.

net: sched: Introduce helpers for qevent blocks

2020-06-30T00:08:28Z

Qevents are attach points for TC blocks, where filters can be put that are executed when "interesting events" take place in a qdisc. The data to keep and the functions to invoke to maintain a qevent will be largely the same between qevents. Therefore introduce sched-wide helpers for qevent management. Currently, similarly to ingress and egress blocks of clsact pseudo-qdisc, blocks attachment cannot be changed after the qdisc is created. To that end, add a helper tcf_qevent_validate_change(), which verifies whether block index attribute is not attached, or if it is, whether its value matches the current one (i.e. there is no material change). The function tcf_qevent_handle() should be invoked when qdisc hits the "interesting event" corresponding to a block. This function releases root lock for the duration of executing the attached filters, to allow packets generated through user actions (notably mirred) to be reinserted to the same qdisc tree.

net: qos offload add flow status with dropped count

2020-06-19T19:53:30Z

This patch adds a drop frames counter to tc flower offloading. Reporting h/w dropped frames is necessary for some actions. Some actions like police action and the coming introduced stream gate action would produce dropped frames which is necessary for user. Status update shows how many filtered packets increasing and how many dropped in those packets. v2: Changes - Update commit comments suggest by Jiri Pirko.

net: sched: implement terse dump support in act

2020-05-15T17:23:11Z

Extend tcf_action_dump() with boolean argument 'terse' that is used to request terse-mode action dump. In terse mode only essential data needed to identify particular action (action kind, cookie, etc.) and its stats is put to resulting skb and everything else is omitted. Implement tcf_exts_terse_dump() helper in cls API that is intended to be used to request terse dump of all exts (actions) attached to the filter.

net: sched: RED: Introduce an ECN nodrop mode

2020-03-15T04:03:46Z

When the RED Qdisc is currently configured to enable ECN, the RED algorithm is used to decide whether a certain SKB should be marked. If that SKB is not ECN-capable, it is early-dropped. It is also possible to keep all traffic in the queue, and just mark the ECN-capable subset of it, as appropriate under the RED algorithm. Some switches support this mode, and some installations make use of it. To that end, add a new RED flag, TC_RED_NODROP. When the Qdisc is configured with this flag, non-ECT traffic is enqueued instead of being early-dropped. Signed-off-by: Petr Machata Reviewed-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
