2016-08-09batman-adv: Place kref_get for dat_entry near useSven Eckelmann
It is hard to understand why the refcnt is increased when it isn't done near the actual place the new reference is used. So using kref_get right before the place which requires the reference and in the same function helps to avoid accidental problems caused by incorrect reference counting.

2016-08-09batman-adv: Suppress debugfs entries for netns'sAndrew Lunn
Debugfs is not netns aware. It thus has problems when the same interface name exists in multiple network name spaces.

2016-08-09batman-adv: use kmem_cache for translation tableSven Eckelmann
The translation table (global, local) is usually the part of batman-adv which has the most dynamical allocated objects. Most of them (tt_local_entry, tt_global_entry, tt_orig_list_entry, tt_change_node, tt_req_node, tt_roam_node) are equally sized. So it makes sense to have them allocated from a kmem_cache for each type. This approach allowed a small wireless router (TP-Link TL-841NDv8; SLUB allocator) to store 34% more translation table entries compared to the current implementation.

2016-08-09batman-adv: disable sysfs knobs when GW-mode is not implementedAntonio Quartulli
Now that the GW-mode code is algorithm specific, batman-adv expects the routing algorithm to implement some APIs to make it work.

The B.A.T.M.A.N. V algorithm uses a different metric compared to its predecessor and for this reason the logic used to compute the best Gateway is also changed. This means that the GW selection class fed to this logic has a semantics that depends on the algorithm being used. Make the parsing and printing routine of the GW selection class routing algorithm specific. Each algorithm can now parse (and print) this value independently. If no API is provided by any algorithm, the default is to use the current mechanism of considering such value like an integer between 1 and 255.

2016-08-09batman-adv: Avoid sysfs name collision for netns movesSven Eckelmann
The kobject_put is only removing the sysfs entry and corresponding entries when its reference counter becomes zero. This tends to lead to collisions when a device is moved between two different network namespaces because some of the sysfs files have to be removed first and then added again to the already moved sysfs entry. WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 290 at lib/kobject.c:240 kobject_add_internal+0x5ec/0x8a0 kobject_add_internal failed for batman_adv with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory. But the caller of kobject_put can already remove the sysfs entry before it does the kobject_put. This removal is done even when the reference counter is not yet zero and thus avoids the problem.

2016-08-09batman-adv: Modify mesh_iface outside sysfs contextSven Eckelmann
The legacy sysfs interface to modify interfaces belonging to batman-adv is run inside a region holding s_lock. And to add a net_device, it has to also get the rtnl_lock. This is exactly the other way around than in other virtual net_devices and conflicts with netdevice notifier which executes inside rtnl_lock. The inverted lock situation is currently solved by executing the removal of netdevices via workqueue. The workqueue isn't executed inside rtnl_lock and thus can independently get the s_lock and the rtnl_lock. But this workaround fails when the netdevice notifier creates events in quick succession and the earlier triggered removal of a net_device isn't processed in the workqueue before the adding of the new netdevice (with same name) event is issued. Instead the legacy sysfs interface store events have to be enqueued in a workqueue to loose the s_lock. The worker is then free to get the required locks and the deadlock is avoided.

2016-08-08net/sched/sch_hfsc.c: keep fsc and virtual times in sync; fix an old bugMichal Soltys
This patch simplifies how we update fsc and calculate vt from it - while keeping the expected functionality identical with how hfsc behaves curently. It also fixes a certain issue introduced with a very old patch. The idea is, that instead of correcting cl_vt before fsc curve update (rtsc_min) and correcting cl_vt after calculation (rtsc_y2x) to keep cl_vt local to the current period - we can simply rely on virtual times and curve values always being in sync - analogously to how rsc and usc function, except that we use virtual time here. Why hasn't it been done since the beginning this way ? The likely scenario (basing on the code trying to correct curves whenever possible) was to keep the virtual times as small as possible - as they have tendency to "gallop" forward whenever their siblings and other fair sharing subtrees are idling. On top of that, current code is subtly bugged, so cumulative time (without any corrections) is always kept and used in init_vf() when a new backlog period begins (using cl_cvtoff). Is cumulative value safe ? Generally yes, though corner cases are easy to create. For example consider: 1gbit interface some 100kbit leaf, everything else idle With current tick (64ns) 1s is 15625000 ticks, but the leaf is alone and it's virtual time, so in reality it's 10000 times more. ITOW 38 bits are needed to hold 1 second. 54 - 1 day, 59 - 1 month, 63 - 1 year (all logarithms rounded up). It's getting somewhat dangerous, but also requires setup excusing this kind of values not mentioning permanently backlogged class for a year. In near most extreme case (10gbit, 10kbit leaf), we have "enough" to hold ~13.6 days in 64 bits. Well, the issue remains mostly theoretical and cl_cvtoff has been working fine for all those years. Sensible configuration are de-facto immune to this issue, and not so sensible can solve it with a cronjob and its period inversely proportional to the insanity of such setup =) Now let's explain the subtle bug mentioned earlier. The issue is related to how offsets are kept and how we calculate virtual times and update fair service curve(s). The issue itself is subtle, but easy to observe with long m1 segments. It was introduced in rather old patch: Commit 99296150c7: "[NET_SCHED]: O(1) children vtoff adjustment in HFSC scheduler" (available in git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git) Originally when a new backlog period was started, cl_vtoff of each sibling was updated with cl_cvtmax from past period - naturally moving all cl_vt to proper starting point. That patch adjusted it so cumulative offset is kept in the parent, and there is no need for traversing the list (as any subsequent child activation derives new vt from already active sibling(s)). But with this change, cl_vtoff (of each sibling) is no longer persistent across the inactivity periods, as it's calculated from parent's cl_cvtoff on a new backlog period, conflicting with the following curve correction from the previous period: if (cl->cl_virtual.x == vt) { cl->cl_virtual.x -= cl->cl_vtoff; cl->cl_vtoff = 0; } This essentially tries to keep curve as if it was local to the period and resets cl_vtoff (cumulative vt offset of the class) to 0 when possible (read: when we have an intersection or if a new curve is below the old one). But then it's recalculated from cl_cvtoff on next active period. Then rtsc_min() call preceding the above if() doesn't really do what we expect it to do in such scenario - as it calculates the minimum of corrected curve (from the previous backlog period) and the new uncorrected curve (with offset derived from cl_cvtoff). Example: tc class add dev $ife parent 1:0 classid 1:1 hfsc ls m2 100mbit ul m2 100mbit tc class add dev $ife parent 1:1 classid 1:10 hfsc ls m1 80mbit d 10s m2 20mbit tc class add dev $ife parent 1:1 classid 1:11 hfsc ls m2 20mbit start B, keep it backlogged, let it run 6s (30s worth of vt as A is idle) pause B briefly to force cl_cvtoff update in parent (whole 1:1 going idle) start A, let it run 10s pause A briefly to force rtsc_min() At this point we would expect A to continue at 20mbit after a brief moment of 80mbit. But instead A will use 80mbit for full 10s again. It's the effect of first correcting A (during 'start A'), and then - after unpausing - calculating rtsc_min() from old corrected and new uncorrected curve. The patch fixes this bug and keepis vt and fsc in sync (virtual times are cumulative, not local to the backlog period). Signed-off-by: Michal Soltys <soltys@ziu.info> Signed-off-by: David S.

2016-08-08net/multicast: should not send source list records when have filter mode changeHangbin Liu
Based on RFC3376 5.1 and RFC3810 6.1 If the per-interface listening change that triggers the new report is a filter mode change, then the next [Robustness Variable] State Change Reports will include a Filter Mode Change Record. This applies even if any number of source list changes occur in that period. Old State New State State Change Record Sent --------- --------- ------------------------ INCLUDE (A) EXCLUDE (B) TO_EX (B) EXCLUDE (A) INCLUDE (B) TO_IN (B) So we should not send source-list change if there is a filter-mode change. Here are two scenarios: 1. Group deleted and filter mode is EXCLUDE, which means we need send a TO_IN { }. 2. Not group deleted, but has pcm->crcount, which means we need send a normal filter-mode-change. At the same time, if the type is ALLOW or BLOCK, and have psf->sf_crcount, we stop add records and decrease sf_crcount directly Reference: https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/magma/current/msg01274.html Signed-off-by: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
