Vlad Yasevich 2be5c76794 macvtap: Let TUNSETOFFLOAD actually controll offload features.
When the user issues TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl, macvtap does not do
anything other then to verify arguments.  This patch adds
functionality to allow users to actually control offload features.
NETIF_F_GSO and NETIF_F_GRO are always on, but the rest of the
features can be controlled.

The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right
next to the deletion of another option.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the
handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action().

Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically
keep everything in both conflict hunks.

The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved.  In 'net' we added a
dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that
Linus reported.  Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted
to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine
whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation.

However, the dump handlers to not use this logic.  Instead they have
to explicitly do the locking.  There were apparent bugs in the
conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the
RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should
be doing so.  So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes.

To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try
to allocate 'tb'.

Michael S. Tsirkin 99ffc3e74f macvlan: don't touch promisc without passthrough
commit df8ef8f3aa
"macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags"
added a way to control NOPROMISC macvlan flag through netlink.

However, with a non passthrough device we never set promisc on open,
even if NOPROMISC is off.  As a result:

If userspace clears NOPROMISC on open, then does not clear it on a
netlink command, promisc counter is not decremented on stop and there
will be no way to clear it once macvlan is detached.

If userspace does not clear NOPROMISC on open, then sets NOPROMISC on a
netlink command, promisc counter will be decremented from 0 and overflow
to fffffffff with no way to clear promisc.

To fix, simply ignore NOPROMISC flag in a netlink command for
non-passthrough devices, same as we do at open/close.

Since we touch this code anyway - check dev_set_promiscuity return code
and pass it to users (though an error here is unlikely).

Jiri Pirko 233c7df082 macvlan: fix passthru mode race between dev removal and rx path
Currently, if macvlan in passthru mode is created and data are rxed and
you remove this device, following panic happens:

NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000198
IP: [<ffffffffa0196058>] macvlan_handle_frame+0x153/0x1f7 [macvlan]

I'm using following script to trigger this:
<script>
while [ 1 ]
do
	ip link add link e1 name macvtap0 type macvtap mode passthru
	ip link set e1 up
	ip link set macvtap0 up
	IFINDEX=`ip link |grep macvtap0 | cut -f 1 -d ':'`
	cat /dev/tap$IFINDEX  >/dev/null &
	ip link del dev macvtap0
done
</script>

I run this script while "ping -f" is running on another machine to send
packets to e1 rx.

Reason of the panic is that list_first_entry() is blindly called in
macvlan_handle_frame() even if the list was empty. vlan is set to
incorrect pointer which leads to the crash.

I'm fixing this by protecting port->vlans list by rcu and by preventing
from getting incorrect pointer in case the list is empty.

Sasha Levin b67bfe0d42 hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

Eric Dumazet 3807ff5899 macvlan: add a salt to mc_hash()
Some multicast addresses are common to all macvlans,
so if a multicast message has a hash value collision, we
have to deliver a copy to all macvlans, adding significant
latency and possible packet drops if netdev_max_backlog
limit is hit.

Having a per macvlan hash function permits to reduce the
impact of hash collisions.

John Fastabend df8ef8f3aa macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags
This adds FDB bridge ops to the macvlan device passthru mode.
Additionally a flags field was added and a NOPROMISC bit to
allow users to use passthru mode without the driver calling
dev_set_promiscuity(). The flags field is a u16 placed in a
4 byte hole (consuming 2 bytes) of the macvlan_dev struct.

We want to do this so that the macvlan driver or stack
above the macvlan driver does not have to process every
packet. For the use case where we know all the MAC addresses
of the endstations above us this works well.

This patch is a result of Roopa Prabhu's work. Follow up
patches are needed for VEPA and VEB macvlan modes.

v2: Change from distinct nopromisc mode to a flags field to
    configure this. This avoids the tendency to add a new
    mode every time we need some slightly different behavior.
v3: fix error in dev_set_promiscuity and add change and get
    link attributes for flags.

stephen hemminger 729e72a109 macvlan: receive multicast with local address
When implementing VRRP v2 using macvlan several problems were
discovered.  VRRP is weird in that all routers participating
in a redundant group use the same virtual MAC address.
Macvlan is a natural driver to use for this but it doesn't
work.  The problem is that packets with a macvlan device's
source address are not received.

The problem is actually a regression that date back almost 2 years now.
The original problems started with:

Eric Dumazet bc416d9768 macvlan: handle fragmented multicast frames
Fragmented multicast frames are delivered to a single macvlan port,
because ip defrag logic considers other samples are redundant.

Implement a defrag step before trying to send the multicast frame.

Jiri Pirko 4bc71cb983 net: consolidate and fix ethtool_ops->get_settings calling
This patch does several things:
- introduces __ethtool_get_settings which is called from ethtool code and
  from drivers as well. Put ASSERT_RTNL there.
- dev_ethtool_get_settings() is replaced by __ethtool_get_settings()
- changes calling in drivers so rtnl locking is respected. In
  iboe_get_rate was previously ->get_settings() called unlocked. This
  fixes it. Also prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo() in af_packet.c had the same
  problem. Also fixed by calling __dev_get_by_index() instead of
  dev_get_by_index() and holding rtnl_lock for both calls.
- introduces rtnl_lock in bnx2fc_vport_create() and fcoe_vport_create()
  so bnx2fc_if_create() and fcoe_if_create() are called locked as they
  are from other places.
- use __ethtool_get_settings() in bonding code

Since veth are a pair of devices, it makes sense to use a batch of two

Eric W. Biederman d5cd92448f macvlan: Fix use after free of struct macvlan_port.
When the macvlan driver was extended to call unregisgter_netdevice_queue
in 23289a37e2, a use after free of struct
macvlan_port was introduced.  The code in dellink relied on unregister_netdevice
actually unregistering the net device so it would be safe to free macvlan_port.

Since unregister_netdevice_queue can just queue up the unregister instead of
performing the unregiser immediately we free the macvlan_port too soon and
then the code in macvlan_stop removes the macaddress for the set of macaddress
to listen for and uses memory that has already been freed.

To fix this add a reference count to track when it is safe to free the macvlan_port
and move the call of macvlan_port_destroy into macvlan_uninit which is guaranteed
to be called after the final macvlan_port_close.

Daniel Lezcano 12a2856b60 macvlan : fix checksums error when we are in bridge mode
When the lower device has offloading capabilities, the packets checksums
are not computed. That leads to have any macvlan port in bridge mode to
not work because the packets are dropped due to a bad checksum.

If the macvlan is in bridge mode, the packet is forwarded to another
macvlan port and reach the network stack where it looks for a checksum
but this one was not computed due to the offloading of the lower device.
In this case, we have to set the packet with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
when it is forwarded to a bridged port and restore the previous value of
ip_summed when the packet goes to the lowerdev.

Sridhar Samudrala eb06acdc85 macvlan: Introduce 'passthru' mode to takeover the underlying device
With the current default 'vepa' mode, a KVM guest using virtio with
macvtap backend has the following limitations.
- cannot change/add a mac address on the guest virtio-net
- cannot create a vlan device on the guest virtio-net
- cannot enable promiscuous mode on guest virtio-net

To address these limitations, this patch introduces a new mode called
'passthru' when creating a macvlan device which allows takeover of the
underlying device and passing it to a guest using virtio with macvtap
backend.

Only one macvlan device is allowed in passthru mode and it inherits
the mac address from the underlying device and sets it in promiscuous
mode to receive and forward all the packets.

Herbert Xu 8a35747a5d macvtap: Limit packet queue length
Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.

This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length.  This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.

This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.

Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.

This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.

Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.

Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length.  This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

Ben Hutchings 3cfde79c6c net: Get rid of rtnl_link_stats64 / net_device_stats union
In commit be1f3c2c02 "net: Enable 64-bit
net device statistics on 32-bit architectures" I redefined struct
net_device_stats so that it could be used in a union with struct
rtnl_link_stats64, avoiding the need for explicit copying or
conversion between the two.  However, this is unsafe because there is
no locking required and no lock consistently held around calls to
dev_get_stats() and use of the statistics structure it returns.

In commit 28172739f0 "net: fix 64 bit
counters on 32 bit arches" Eric Dumazet dealt with that problem by
requiring callers of dev_get_stats() to provide storage for the
result.  This means that the net_device::stats64 field and the padding
in struct net_device_stats are now redundant, so remove them.

Update the comment on net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64 to reflect its
new usage.

Change dev_txq_stats_fold() to use struct rtnl_link_stats64, since
that is what all its callers are really using and it is no longer
going to be compatible with struct net_device_stats.

Eric Dumazet suggested the separate function for the structure
conversion.

Eric Dumazet 28172739f0 net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.

One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().

Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)

Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

Arnd Bergmann 618e1b7482 macvlan: implement bridge, VEPA and private mode
This allows each macvlan slave device to be in one
of three modes, depending on the use case:

MACVLAN_PRIVATE:
  The device never communicates with any other device
  on the same upper_dev. This even includes frames
  coming back from a reflective relay, where supported
  by the adjacent bridge.

MACVLAN_VEPA:
  The new Virtual Ethernet Port Aggregator (VEPA) mode,
  we assume that the adjacent bridge returns all frames
  where both source and destination are local to the
  macvlan port, i.e. the bridge is set up as a reflective
  relay.
  Broadcast frames coming in from the upper_dev get
  flooded to all macvlan interfaces in VEPA mode.
  We never deliver any frames locally.

MACVLAN_BRIDGE:
  We provide the behavior of a simple bridge between
  different macvlan interfaces on the same port. Frames
  from one interface to another one get delivered directly
  and are not sent out externally. Broadcast frames get
  flooded to all other bridge ports and to the external
  interface, but when they come back from a reflective
  relay, we don't deliver them again.
  Since we know all the MAC addresses, the macvlan bridge
  mode does not require learning or STP like the bridge
  module does.

Based on an earlier patch "macvlan: Reflect macvlan packets
meant for other macvlan devices" by Eric Biederman.

Eric W. Biederman 81adee47df net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation.
There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the
network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier
to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace
with a well known name.

We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace
for the new device exists through the life of the call.  To keep
that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing
logic into rtnl_link_get_net.

In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace
to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base
device source network namespace.

This new method gets num_tx_queues/real_num_tx_queues

macvlan_get_tx_queues() is a copy of vlan_get_tx_queues().

Because macvlan_start_xmit() has to update netdev_queue

tx_errors/tx_aborted_errors accounting to tx_dropped,

akpm: the reporter disappeared, so I typed it in again.

It is not possible to make clone of tagged VLAN interface to be used as
mac-based vlan interfave.

How reproducible:
Use any 802.1q tagged vlan interface, e.g. eth2.700 and clone it:

  ip link add link eth2.700 address 00:04:75:cb:38:09 macvlan0 type macvlan
  ip link set dev macvlan0 up
  ip addr add 10.195.1.1/24 dev macvlan0

So far, so good. Now try to ping anything via macvlan0:

  ping 10.195.1.2

Actual results:
For every attempted packet tx kernel writes to console:

Jiri Pirko ccffad25b5 net: convert unicast addr list
This patch converts unicast address list to standard list_head using
previously introduced struct netdev_hw_addr. It also relaxes the
locking. Original spinlock (still used for multicast addresses) is not
needed and is no longer used for a protection of this list. All
reading and writing takes place under rtnl (with no changes).

I also removed a possibility to specify the length of the address
while adding or deleting unicast address. It's always dev->addr_len.

The convertion touched especially e1000 and ixgbe codes when the
change is not so trivial.

Eric Dumazet 93f154b594 net: release dst entry in dev_hard_start_xmit()
One point of contention in high network loads is the dst_release() performed
when a transmited skb is freed. This is because NIC tx completion calls
dev_kree_skb() long after original call to dev_queue_xmit(skb).

CPU cache is cold and the atomic op in dst_release() stalls. On SMP, this is
quite visible if one CPU is 100% handling softirqs for a network device,
since dst_clone() is done by other cpus, involving cache line ping pongs.

It seems right place to release dst is in dev_hard_start_xmit(), for most
devices but ones that are virtual, and some exceptions.

David Miller suggested to define a new device flag, set in alloc_netdev_mq()
(so that most devices set it at init time), and carefuly unset in devices
which dont want a NULL skb->dst in their ndo_start_xmit().

List of devices that must clear this flag is :

- loopback device, because it calls netif_rx() and quoting Patrick :
    "ip_route_input() doesn't accept loopback addresses, so loopback packets
     already need to have a dst_entry attached."
- appletalk/ipddp.c : needs skb->dst in its xmit function

- And all devices that call again dev_queue_xmit() from their xmit function
(as some classifiers need skb->dst) : bonding, vlan, macvlan, eql, ifb, hdlc_fr

Eric Biederman f9ac30f080 macvlan: Deterministic ingress packet delivery
Changing the mac address when a macvlan device is up will leave the
device on the wrong hash chain making it impossible to receive
packets.

There is no checking of the mac address set on the macvlan.  Allowing
a misconfiguration to grab packets from the the underlying device or
another macvlan.

To resolve these problems I update the hash table of macvlans when the
mac address of a macvlan changes, and when updating the hash table
I verify that the new mac address is usable.

The result is well defined and predictable if not perfect handling of
mac vlan mac addresses.

To keep the code clear I have created a set of hash table maintenance
in macvlan so I am not open coding the hash function and the logic
needed to update the hash table all over the place.

Franck Bui-Huu 82524746c2 rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.h
Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h.

This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the
kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this
list.h without creating some circular dependencies.

For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference()
without including rcupdate.h.  It actually compiles because users of
rcu_dereference() are macros.  Others RCU functions could be used too but
aren't probably because of this.

Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to
many changes/troubles.

Patrick McHardy 7312096454 macvlan: Fix memleak on device removal/crash on module removal
As noticed by Ben Greear, macvlan crashes the kernel when unloading the
module. The reason is that it tries to clean up the macvlan_port pointer
on the macvlan device itself instead of the underlying device. A non-NULL
pointer is taken as indication that the macvlan_handle_frame_hook is
valid, when receiving the next packet on the underlying device it tries
to call the NULL hook and crashes.

Clean up the macvlan_port on the correct device to fix this.

Rami Rosen 52913246e0 [MACVLAN]: Setting macvlan_handle_frame_hook to NULL when rtnl_link_register() fails.
In drivers/net/macvlan.c, when rtnl_link_register() fails in
macvlan_init_module(), there is no point to set it (second time in
this method) to macvlan_handle_frame; macvlan_init_module() will
return a negative number, so instead this patch sets
macvlan_handle_frame_hook to NULL.

Patrick McHardy f12ca5f97b [MACVLAN]: Fix thinko in macvlan_transfer_operstate()
When the lower device's carrier is off, the macvlan devices's
carrier state should be checked to decide whether it needs to
be turned off. Currently the lower device's state is checked
a second time.

This still works, but unnecessarily tries to turn off the
carrier when its already off.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

For now the ifindex generator is left global.

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

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