openvswitch: fix the incorrect flow action alloc size

2018-03-01T03:09:46Z

[ Upstream commit 67c8d22a73128ff910e2287567132530abcf5b71 ] If we want to add a datapath flow, which has more than 500 vxlan outputs' action, we will get the following error reports: openvswitch: netlink: Flow action size 32832 bytes exceeds max openvswitch: netlink: Flow action size 32832 bytes exceeds max openvswitch: netlink: Actions may not be safe on all matching packets ... ... It seems that we can simply enlarge the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE to fix it, but this is not the root cause. For example, for a vxlan output action, we need about 60 bytes for the nlattr, but after it is converted to the flow action, it only occupies 24 bytes. This means that we can still support more than 1000 vxlan output actions for a single datapath flow under the the current 32k max limitation. So even if the nla_len(attr) is larger than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE, we shouldn't report EINVAL and keep it move on, as the judgement can be done by the reserve_sfa_size.

openvswitch: use flow protocol when recalculating ipv6 checksums

2016-07-11T03:07:22Z

[ Upstream commit b4f70527f052b0c00be4d7cac562baa75b212df5 ] When using masked actions the ipv6_proto field of an action to set IPv6 fields may be zero rather than the prevailing protocol which will result in skipping checksum recalculation. This patch resolves the problem by relying on the protocol in the flow key rather than that in the set field action. Fixes: 83d2b9ba1abc ("net: openvswitch: Support masked set actions.")

net: preserve IP control block during GSO segmentation

2016-01-31T19:23:36Z

[ Upstream commit 9207f9d45b0ad071baa128e846d7e7ed85016df3 ] Skb_gso_segment() uses skb control block during segmentation. This patch adds 32-bytes room for previous control block which will be copied into all resulting segments. This patch fixes kernel crash during fragmenting forwarded packets. Fragmentation requires valid IP CB in skb for clearing ip options. Also patch removes custom save/restore in ovs code, now it's redundant.

ovs: do not allocate memory from offline numa node

2015-10-27T00:51:50Z

[ Upstream commit 598c12d0ba6de9060f04999746eb1e015774044b ] When openvswitch tries allocate memory from offline numa node 0: stats = kmem_cache_alloc_node(flow_stats_cache, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO, 0) It catches VM_BUG_ON(nid < 0 || nid >= MAX_NUMNODES || !node_online(nid)) [ replaced with VM_WARN_ON(!node_online(nid)) recently ] in linux/gfp.h This patch disables numa affinity in this case.

openvswitch: Zero flows on allocation.

2015-10-03T11:49:16Z

[ Upstream commit ae5f2fb1d51fa128a460bcfbe3c56d7ab8bf6a43 ] When support for megaflows was introduced, OVS needed to start installing flows with a mask applied to them. Since masking is an expensive operation, OVS also had an optimization that would only take the parts of the flow keys that were covered by a non-zero mask. The values stored in the remaining pieces should not matter because they are masked out. While this works fine for the purposes of matching (which must always look at the mask), serialization to netlink can be problematic. Since the flow and the mask are serialized separately, the uninitialized portions of the flow can be encoded with whatever values happen to be present. In terms of functionality, this has little effect since these fields will be masked out by definition. However, it leaks kernel memory to userspace, which is a potential security vulnerability. It is also possible that other code paths could look at the masked key and get uninitialized data, although this does not currently appear to be an issue in practice. This removes the mask optimization for flows that are being installed. This was always intended to be the case as the mask optimizations were really targetting per-packet flow operations.

openvswitch: disable LRO

2015-06-04T02:39:35Z

Currently, openvswitch tries to disable LRO from the user space. This does not work correctly when the device added is a vlan interface, though. Instead of dealing with possibly complex stacked cross name space relations in the user space, do the same as bridging does and call dev_disable_lro in the kernel.

Pull networking updates from David Miller: 1) Add BQL support to via-rhine, from Tino Reichardt. 2) Integrate SWITCHDEV layer support into the DSA layer, so DSA drivers can support hw switch offloading. From Floria Fainelli. 3) Allow 'ip address' commands to initiate multicast group join/leave, from Madhu Challa. 4) Many ipv4 FIB lookup optimizations from Alexander Duyck. 5) Support EBPF in cls_bpf classifier and act_bpf action, from Daniel Borkmann. 6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25, rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman. 7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman. 8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck. 9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation, from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty table, we expand the table much more sanely. 10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric Biederman. 11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov. 12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed underneath. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk. 14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic Sowa. 16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard Cochran. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits) fm10k: Bump driver version to 0.15.2 fm10k: corrected VF multicast update fm10k: mbx_update_max_size does not drop all oversized messages fm10k: reset head instead of calling update_max_size fm10k: renamed mbx_tx_dropped to mbx_tx_oversized fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses fm10k: start service timer on probe fm10k: fix function header comment fm10k: comment next_vf_mbx flow fm10k: don't handle mailbox events in iov_event path and always process mailbox fm10k: use separate workqueue for fm10k driver fm10k: Set PF queues to unlimited bandwidth during virtualization fm10k: expose tx_timeout_count as an ethtool stat fm10k: only increment tx_timeout_count in Tx hang path fm10k: remove extraneous "Reset interface" message fm10k: separate PF only stats so that VF does not display them fm10k: use hw->mac.max_queues for stats fm10k: only show actual queues, not the maximum in hardware fm10k: allow creation of VLAN on default vid fm10k: fix unused warnings ...

mm: remove GFP_THISNODE

2015-04-14T23:49:03Z

NOTE: this is not about __GFP_THISNODE, this is only about GFP_THISNODE. GFP_THISNODE is a secret combination of gfp bits that have different behavior than expected. It is a combination of __GFP_THISNODE, __GFP_NORETRY, and __GFP_NOWARN and is special-cased in the page allocator slowpath to fail without trying reclaim even though it may be used in combination with __GFP_WAIT. An example of the problem this creates: commit e97ca8e5b864 ("mm: fix GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify") fixed up many users of GFP_THISNODE that really just wanted __GFP_THISNODE. The problem doesn't end there, however, because even it was a no-op for alloc_misplaced_dst_page(), which also sets __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN, and migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), where __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWAIT is set in GFP_TRANSHUGE. Converting GFP_THISNODE to __GFP_THISNODE is a no-op in these cases since the page allocator special-cases __GFP_THISNODE && __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN. It's time to just remove GFP_THISNODE entirely. We leave __GFP_THISNODE to restrict an allocation to a local node, but remove GFP_THISNODE and its obscurity. Instead, we require that a caller clear __GFP_WAIT if it wants to avoid reclaim. This allows the aforementioned functions to actually reclaim as they should. It also enables any future callers that want to do __GFP_THISNODE but also __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN to reclaim. The rule is simple: if you don't want to reclaim, then don't set __GFP_WAIT. Aside: ovs_flow_stats_update() really wants to avoid reclaim as well, so it is unchanged.
