2011-04-27ipv4: Sanitize and simplify ip_route_{connect,newports}()David S. Miller
These functions are used together as a unit for route resolution during connect(). They address the chicken-and-egg problem that exists when ports need to be allocated during connect() processing, yet such port allocations require addressing information from the routing code. It's currently more heavy handed than it needs to be, and in particular we allocate and initialize a flow object twice. Let the callers provide the on-stack flow object. That way we only need to initialize it once in the ip_route_connect() call. Later, if ip_route_newports() needs to do anything, it re-uses that flow object as-is except for the ports which it updates before the route re-lookup. Also, describe why this set of facilities are needed and how it works in a big comment. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>

Commit 1018b5c01636c7c6bda31a719bda34fc631db29a ("Set rt->rt_iif more sanely on output routes.") breaks rt_is_{output,input}_route. This became the cause to return "IP_PKTINFO's ->ipi_ifindex == 0". To fix it, this does: 1) Add "int rt_route_iif;" to struct rtable 2) For input routes, always set rt_route_iif to same value as rt_iif 3) For output routes, always set rt_route_iif to zero. Set rt_iif as it is done currently. 4) Change rt_is_{output,input}_route() to test rt_route_iif Signed-off-by: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-03-25route: Take the right src and dst addresses in ip_route_newportsSteffen Klassert
When we set up the flow informations in ip_route_newports(), we take the address informations from the the rt_key_src and rt_key_dst fields of the rtable. They appear to be empty. So take the address informations from rt_src and rt_dst instead. This issue was introduced by commit 5e2b61f78411be25f0b84f97d5b5d312f184dfd1 ("ipv4: Remove flowi from struct rtable.")

2011-03-22ipv4: fix route deletion for IPs on many subnetsJulian Anastasov
Alex Sidorenko reported for problems with local routes left after IP addresses are deleted. It happens when same IPs are used in more than one subnet for the device. Fix fib_del_ifaddr to restrict the checks for duplicate local and broadcast addresses only to the IFAs that use our primary IFA or another primary IFA with same address. And we expect the prefsrc to be matched when the routes are deleted because it is possible they to differ only by prefsrc. This patch prevents local and broadcast routes to be leaked until their primary IP is deleted finally from the box. As the secondary address promotion needs to delete the routes for all secondaries that used the old primary IFA, add option to ignore these secondaries from the checks and to assume they are already deleted, so that we can safely delete the route while these IFAs are still on the device list.

2011-02-24ipv4: Rearrange how ip_route_newports() gets port keys.David S. Miller
ip_route_newports() is the only place in the entire kernel that cares about the port members in the routing cache entry's lookup flow key. Therefore the only reason we store an entire flow inside of the struct rtentry is for this one special case. Rewrite ip_route_newports() such that: 1) The caller passes in the original port values, so we don't need to use the rth->fl.fl_ip_{s,d}port values to remember them. 2) The lookup flow is constructed by hand instead of being copied from the routing cache entry's flow.

2011-02-10inet: Create a mechanism for upward inetpeer propagation into routes.David S. Miller
If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example PMTU information and redirects. The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc. Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry. If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry. The facilities implemented here handle this problem. First we create a generation ID. When we create a cached route of any kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment. Any time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path information, we bump that generation ID. The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event is propagated. If the global generation ID does not equal the one stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found. Now that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the route's generation ID too. This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in the inetpeer cache. There is absolutely no need to consult cached route information in order to maintain this information. At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-01-27net: Pre-COW metrics for TCP.David S. Miller
TCP is going to record metrics for the connection, so pre-COW the route metrics at route cache entry creation time. This avoids several atomic operations that have to occur if we COW the metrics after the entry reaches global visibility. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-01-26net: Implement read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics.David S. Miller
Routing metrics are now copy-on-write. Initially a route entry points it's metrics at a read-only location. If a routing table entry exists, it will point there. Else it will point at the all zero metric place-holder called 'dst_default_metrics'. The writeability state of the metrics is stored in the low bits of the metrics pointer, we have two bits left to spare if we want to store more states. For the initial implementation, COW is implemented simply via kmalloc. However future enhancements will change this to place the writable metrics somewhere else, in order to increase sharing. Very likely this "somewhere else" will be the inetpeer cache. Note also that this means that metrics updates may transiently fail if we cannot COW the metrics successfully. But even by itself, this patch should decrease memory usage and increase cache locality especially for routing workloads. In those cases the read-only metric copies stay in place and never get written to. TCP workloads where metrics get updated, and those rare cases where PMTU triggers occur, will take a very slight performance hit. But that hit will be alleviated when the long-term writable metrics move to a more sharable location. Since the metrics storage went from a u32 array of RTAX_MAX entries to what is essentially a pointer, some retooling of the dst_entry layout was necessary. Most importantly, we need to preserve the alignment of the reference count so that it doesn't share cache lines with the read-mostly state, as per Eric Dumazet's alignment assertion checks. The only non-trivial bit here is the move of the 'flags' member into the writeable cacheline. This is OK since we are always accessing the flags around the same moment when we made a modification to the reference count. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-12-12ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric.David S. Miller
Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6. This allowed several simplifications: 1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer userd. 2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in routing cache metrics any longer. 3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and therefore can be marked static. When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago, the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around so kill that off too. We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has a back dependency on net/route.h Signed-off-by: David S.

2010-11-11net: get rid of rtable->idevEric Dumazet
It seems idev field in struct rtable has no special purpose, but adding extra atomic ops. We hold refcounts on the device itself (using percpu data, so pretty cheap in current kernel). infiniband case is solved using dst.dev instead of idev->dev Removal of this field means routing without route cache is now using shared data, percpu data, and only potential contention is a pair of atomic ops on struct neighbour per forwarded packet. About 5% speedup on routing test.

The motivation for an additional notifier in batched netdevice notification (rt_do_flush) only needs to be called once per batch not once per namespace. For further batching improvements I need a guarantee that the netdevices are unregistered in order allowing me to unregister an all of the network devices in a network namespace at the same time with the guarantee that the loopback device is really and truly unregistered last.
