* bonding: remove packet cloning in recv_probe()Eric Dumazet2012-06-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cloning all packets in input path have a significant cost. Use skb_header_pointer()/skb_copy_bits() instead of pskb_may_pull() so that recv_probe handlers (bond_3ad_lacpdu_recv / bond_arp_rcv / rlb_arp_recv ) dont touch input skb. bond_handle_frame() can avoid the skb_clone()/dev_kfree_skb() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Cc: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> Cc: Jiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz> Cc: Nicolas de Pesloüan <nicolas.2p.debian@free.fr> Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* bonding: remove entries for master_ip and vlan_ip and query devices insteadAndy Gospodarek2012-03-221-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The following patch aimed to resolve an issue where secondary, tertiary, etc. addresses added to bond interfaces could overwrite the bond->master_ip and vlan_ip values. commit 917fbdb32f37e9a93b00bb12ee83532982982df3 Author: Henrik Saavedra Persson <henrik.e.persson@ericsson.com> Date: Wed Nov 23 23:37:15 2011 +0000 bonding: only use primary address for ARP That patch was good because it prevented bonds using ARP monitoring from sending frames with an invalid source IP address. Unfortunately, it didn't always work as expected. When using an ioctl (like ifconfig does) to set the IP address and netmask, 2 separate ioctls are actually called to set the IP and netmask if the mask chosen doesn't match the standard mask for that class of address. The first ioctl did not have a mask that matched the one in the primary address and would still cause the device address to be overwritten. The second ioctl that was called to set the mask would then detect as secondary and ignored, but the damage was already done. This was not an issue when using an application that used netlink sockets as the setting of IP and netmask came down at once. The inconsistent behavior between those two interfaces was something that needed to be resolved. While I was thinking about how I wanted to resolve this, Ralf Zeidler came with a patch that resolved this on a RHEL kernel by keeping a full shadow of the entries in dev->ifa_list for the bonding device and vlan devices in the bonding driver. I didn't like the duplication of the list as I want to see the 'bonding' struct and code shrink rather than grow, but liked the general idea. As the Subject indicates this patch drops the master_ip and vlan_ip elements from the 'bonding' and 'vlan_entry' structs, respectively. This can be done because a device's address-list is now traversed to determine the optimal source IP address for ARP requests and for checks to see if the bonding device has a particular IP address. This code could have all be contained inside the bonding driver, but it made more sense to me to EXPORT and call inet_confirm_addr since it did exactly what was needed. I tested this and a backported patch and everything works as expected. Ralf also helped with verification of the backported patch. Thanks to Ralf for all his help on this. v2: Whitespace and organizational changes based on suggestions from Jay Vosburgh and Dave Miller. v3: Fixup incorrect usage of rcu_read_unlock based on Dave Miller's suggestion.

* bonding: eliminate bond_close race conditionsJay Vosburgh2011-10-301-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch resolves two sets of race conditions. Mitsuo Hayasaka <mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com> reported the first, as follows: The bond_close() calls cancel_delayed_work() to cancel delayed works. It, however, cannot cancel works that were already queued in workqueue. The bond_open() initializes work->data, and proccess_one_work() refers get_work_cwq(work)->wq->flags. The get_work_cwq() returns NULL when work->data has been initialized. Thus, a panic occurs. He included a patch that converted the cancel_delayed_work calls in bond_close to flush_delayed_work_sync, which eliminated the above problem. His patch is incorporated, at least in principle, into this patch. In this patch, we use cancel_delayed_work_sync in place of flush_delayed_work_sync, and also convert bond_uninit in addition to bond_close. This conversion to _sync, however, opens new races between bond_close and three periodically executing workqueue functions: bond_mii_monitor, bond_alb_monitor and bond_activebackup_arp_mon. The race occurs because bond_close and bond_uninit are always called with RTNL held, and these workqueue functions may acquire RTNL to perform failover-related activities. If bond_close or bond_uninit is waiting in cancel_delayed_work_sync, deadlock occurs. These deadlocks are resolved by having the workqueue functions acquire RTNL conditionally. If the rtnl_trylock() fails, the functions reschedule and return immediately. For the cases that are attempting to perform link failover, a delay of 1 is used; for the other cases, the normal interval is used (as those activities are not as time critical). Additionally, the bond_mii_monitor function now stores the delay in a variable (mimicing the structure of activebackup_arp_mon). Lastly, all of the above renders the kill_timers sentinel moot, and therefore it has been removed.

* ipv4, ipv6, bonding: Restore control over number of peer notificationsBen Hutchings2011-04-291-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For backward compatibility, we should retain the module parameters and sysfs attributes to control the number of peer notifications (gratuitous ARPs and unsolicited NAs) sent after bonding failover. Also, it is possible for failover to take place even though the new active slave does not have link up, and in that case the peer notification should be deferred until it does. Change ipv4 and ipv6 so they do not automatically send peer notifications on bonding failover. Change the bonding driver to send separate NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS notifications when the link is up, as many times as requested. Since it does not directly control which protocols send notifications, make num_grat_arp and num_unsol_na aliases for a single parameter. Bump the bonding version number and update its documentation.

* bonding: move processing of recv handlers into handle_frame()Jiri Pirko2011-04-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since now when bonding uses rx_handler, all traffic going into bond device goes thru bond_handle_frame. So there's no need to go back into bonding code later via ptype handlers. This patch converts original ptype handlers into "bonding receive probes". These functions are called from bond_handle_frame and they are registered per-mode. Note that vlan packets are also handled because they are always untagged thanks to vlan_untag() Note that this also allows arpmon for eth-bond-bridge-vlan topology.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A while back I made some changes to enable netpoll in the bonding driver. Among them was a per-cpu flag that indicated we were in a path that held locks which could cause the netpoll path to block in during tx, and as such the tx path should queue the frame for later use. This appears to have given rise to a regression. If one of those paths on which we hold the per-cpu flag yields the cpu, its possible for us to come back on a different cpu, leading to us clearing a different flag than we set. This results in odd netpoll drops, and BUG backtraces appearing in the log, as we check to make sure that we only clear set bits, and only set clear bits. I had though briefly about changing the offending paths so that they wouldn't sleep, but looking at my origional work more closely, it doesn't appear that a per-cpu flag is warranted. We alrady gate the checking of this flag on IFF_IN_NETPOLL, so we don't hit this in the normal tx case anyway. And practically speaking, the normal use case for netpoll is to only have one client anyway, so we're not going to erroneously queue netpoll frames when its actually safe to do so. As such, lets just convert that per-cpu flag to an atomic counter. It fixes the rescheduling bugs, is equivalent from a performance perspective and actually eliminates some code in the process.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | using netpoll The monitoring paths in the bonding driver take write locks that are shared by the tx path. If netconsole is in use, these paths can call printk which puts us in the netpoll tx path, which, if netconsole is attached to the bonding driver, result in deadlock (the xmit_lock guards are useless in netpoll_send_skb, as the monitor paths in the bonding driver don't claim the xmit_lock, nor should they). The solution is to use a per cpu flag internal to the driver to indicate when a cpu is holding the lock in a path that might recusrse into the tx path for the driver via netconsole. By checking this flag on transmit, we can defer the sending of the netconsole frames until a later time using the retransmit feature of netpoll_send_skb that is triggered on the return code NETDEV_TX_BUSY.

This patch give the user the ability to control the output slave for round-robin and active-backup bonding. Similar functionality was discussed in the past, but Jay Vosburgh indicated he would rather see a feature like this added to existing modes rather than creating a completely new mode. Jay's thoughts as well as Neil's input surrounding some of the issues with the first implementation pushed us toward a design that relied on the queue_mapping rather than skb marks. Round-robin and active-backup modes were chosen as the first users of this slave selection as they seemed like the most logical choices when considering a multi-switch environment. Round-robin mode works without any modification, but active-backup does require inclusion of the first patch in this series and setting the 'all_slaves_active' flag. This will allow reception of unicast traffic on any of the backup interfaces. This was tested with IPv4-based filters as well as VLAN-based filters with good results.

In an effort to suppress duplicate frames on certain bonding modes (specifically the modes that do not require additional configuration on the switch or switches connected to the host), code was added in the generic receive patch in 2.6.16. The current behavior works quite well for most users, but there are some times it would be nice to restore old functionality and allow all frames to make their way up the stack. This patch adds support for a new module option and sysfs file called 'all_slaves_active' that will restore pre-2.6.16 functionality if the user desires. The default value is '0' and retains existing behavior, but the user can set it to '1' and allow all frames up if desired.

* bond: Simply bond sysfs group creationEric W. Biederman2009-10-301-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | This patch delegates the work of creating the sysfs groups to the netdev layer and ultimately to the device layer. This closes races between uevents. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@aristanetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* bonding: Remove bond_dev from xmit_hash_policy call.Jasper Spaans2009-10-271-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Now that the bonding device is no longer used in determining the device to which to send packets, it can be dropped from the argument list of the various xmit_hash_policy calls.

* bonding: introduce primary_reselect optionJiri Pirko2009-10-071-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some cases there is not desirable to switch back to primary interface when it's link recovers and rather stay with currently active one. We need to avoid packetloss as much as we can in some cases. This is solved by introducing primary_reselect option. Note that enslaved primary slave is set as current active no matter what. Patch modified by Jay Vosburgh as follows: fixed bug in action after change of option setting via sysfs, revised the documentation update, and bumped the bonding version number.

* bonding: use compare_ether_addr_64bits() in ALBEric Dumazet2009-09-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | We can speedup ether addresses compares using compare_ether_addr_64bits() instead of memcmp(). We make sure all operands are at least 8 bytes long and 16bits aligned (or better, long word aligned if possible) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* bonding: fix destructorStephen Hemminger2009-06-131-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is not safe to use a network device destructor that is a function in the module, since it can be called after module is unloaded if sysfs handle is open. When eventually using netlink, the device cleanup code needs to be done via uninit function. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
