2018-11-02net/ipv6: Add anycast addresses to a global hashtableJeff Barnhill
icmp6_send() function is expensive on systems with a large number of interfaces. Every time it’s called, it has to verify that the source address does not correspond to an existing anycast address by looping through every device and every anycast address on the device. This can result in significant delays for a CPU when there are a large number of neighbors and ND timers are frequently timing out and calling neigh_invalidate(). Add anycast addresses to a global hashtable to allow quick searching for matching anycast addresses. This is based on inet6_addr_lst in addrconf.c.

2018-03-16net/ipv6: Change address check to always take a device argumentDavid Ahern
ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags determines if an address is a local address and optionally if it is an address on a specific device. For example, it is called by ip6_route_info_create to determine if a given gateway address is a local address. The address check currently does not consider L3 domains and as a result does not allow a route to be added in one VRF if the nexthop points to an address in a second VRF. e.g., $ ip route add 2001:db8:1::/64 vrf r2 via 2001:db8:102::23 Error: Invalid gateway address. where 2001:db8:102::23 is an address on an interface in vrf r1. ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags needs to allow callers to always pass in a device with a separate argument to not limit the address to the specific device. The device is used used to determine the L3 domain of interest. To that end add an argument to skip the device check and update callers to always pass a device where possible and use the new argument to mean any address in the domain. Update a handful of users of ipv6_chk_addr with a NULL dev argument. This patch handles the change to these callers without adding the domain check. ip6_validate_gw needs to handle 2 cases - one where the device is given as part of the nexthop spec and the other where the device is resolved. There is at least 1 VRF case where deferring the check to only after the route lookup has resolved the device fails with an unintuitive error "RTNETLINK answers: No route to host" as opposed to the preferred "Error: Gateway can not be a local address." The 'no route to host' error is because of the fallback to a full lookup. The check is done twice to avoid this error.

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

__net_init/__net_exit are apparently not going away, so use them to full extent. In some cases __net_init was removed, because it was called from __net_exit code. Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

No longer need read_lock(&dev_base_lock), use RCU instead. We also can avoid taking references on inet6_dev structs. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Adds RCU management to the list of netdevices. Convert some for_each_netdev() users to RCU version, if it can avoid read_lock-ing dev_base_lock Ie: read_lock(&dev_base_loack); for_each_netdev(net, dev) some_action(); read_unlock(&dev_base_lock); becomes : rcu_read_lock(); for_each_netdev_rcu(net, dev) some_action(); rcu_read_unlock(); Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
