Rob Jones 772476df70 net/netfilter/x_tables.c: use __seq_open_private()
Reduce boilerplate code by using __seq_open_private() instead of seq_open()
in xt_match_open() and xt_target_open().

Pablo Neira Ayuso 7926dbfa4b netfilter: don't use mutex_lock_interruptible()
Eric Dumazet reports that getsockopt() or setsockopt() sometimes
returns -EINTR instead of -ENOPROTOOPT, causing headaches to
application developers.

This patch replaces all the mutex_lock_interruptible() by mutex_lock()
in the netfilter tree, as there is no reason we should sleep for a
long time there.

  Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt

This comes about because CPU1 is executing xt_replace_table in response
to a setsockopt syscall, resulting in:

	ret = xt_jumpstack_alloc(newinfo);
		--> newinfo->jumpstack = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL);

	[...]

	table->private = newinfo;
	newinfo->initial_entries = private->initial_entries;

Meanwhile, CPU0 is handling the network receive path and ends up in
ipt_do_table, resulting in:

	private = table->private;

	[...]

	jumpstack  = (struct ipt_entry **)private->jumpstack[cpu];

On weakly ordered memory architectures, the writes to table->private
and newinfo->jumpstack from CPU1 can be observed out of order by CPU0.
Furthermore, on architectures which don't respect ordering of address
dependencies (i.e. Alpha), the reads from CPU0 can also be re-ordered.

This patch adds an smp_wmb() before the assignment to table->private
(which is essentially publishing newinfo) to ensure that all writes to
newinfo will be observed before plugging it into the table structure.
A dependent-read barrier is also added on the consumer sides, to ensure
the same ordering requirements are also respected there.

changes done by myself in the past.

Some notes:

- nf_conntrack_ecache.c was incorrectly attributed to Rusty and Netfilter
  Core Team when it got split out of nf_conntrack_core.c. The copyrights
  even state a date which lies six years before it was written. It was
  written in 2005 by Harald and myself.

- net/ipv{4,6}/netfilter.c, net/netfitler/nf_queue.c were missing copyright
  statements. I've added the copyright statement from net/netfilter/core.c,
  where this code originated

- for nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c I've also added Jozsef, since I didn't want
  it to give the wrong impression

Jan Engelhardt 5b76c4948f netfilter: x_tables: print correct hook names for ARP
arptables 0.0.4 (released on 10th Jan 2013) supports calling the
CLASSIFY target, but on adding a rule to the wrong chain, the
diagnostic is as follows:

	# arptables -A INPUT -j CLASSIFY --set-class 0:0
	arptables: Invalid argument
	# dmesg | tail -n1
	x_tables: arp_tables: CLASSIFY target: used from hooks
	PREROUTING, but only usable from INPUT/FORWARD

This is incorrect, since xt_CLASSIFY.c does specify
(1 << NF_ARP_OUT) | (1 << NF_ARP_FORWARD).

This patch corrects the x_tables diagnostic message to print the
proper hook names for the NFPROTO_ARP case.

Affects all kernels down to and including v2.6.31.

Eric Dumazet 7f5c6d4f66 netfilter: get rid of atomic ops in fast path
We currently use a percpu spinlock to 'protect' rule bytes/packets
counters, after various attempts to use RCU instead.

Lately we added a seqlock so that get_counters() can run without
blocking BH or 'writers'. But we really only need the seqcount in it.

Spinlock itself is only locked by the current/owner cpu, so we can
remove it completely.

This cleanups api, using correct 'writer' vs 'reader' semantic.

At replace time, the get_counters() call makes sure all cpus are done
using the old table.

Since xt_find_match() returns ERR_PTR(xx) on error not NULL,
the macro try_then_request_module won't work correctly here.
The macro expects its first argument will be zero if condition

The correct solution is to propagate the error value
back.

One iptables invocation with 135000 rules takes 35 seconds of cpu time
on a recent server, using a 32bit distro and a 64bit kernel.

We eventually trigger NMI/RCU watchdog.

INFO: rcu_sched_state detected stall on CPU 3 (t=6000 jiffies)

COMPAT mode has quadratic behavior and consume 16 bytes of memory per
rule.

Switch the xt_compat algos to use an array instead of list, and use a
binary search to locate an offset in the sorted array.

This halves memory need (8 bytes per rule), and removes quadratic
behavior [ O(N*N) -> O(N*log2(N)) ]

Eric Dumazet 83723d6071 netfilter: x_tables: dont block BH while reading counters
Using "iptables -L" with a lot of rules have a too big BH latency.
Jesper mentioned ~6 ms and worried of frame drops.

Switch to a per_cpu seqlock scheme, so that taking a snapshot of
counters doesnt need to block BH (for this cpu, but also other cpus).

This adds two increments on seqlock sequence per ipt_do_table() call,
its a reasonable cost for allowing "iptables -L" not block BH
processing.

Jan Engelhardt f3c5c1bfd4 netfilter: xtables: make ip_tables reentrant
Currently, the table traverser stores return addresses in the ruleset
itself (struct ip6t_entry->comefrom). This has a well-known drawback:
the jumpstack is overwritten on reentry, making it necessary for
targets to return absolute verdicts. Also, the ruleset (which might
be heavy memory-wise) needs to be replicated for each CPU that can
possibly invoke ip6t_do_table.

This patch decouples the jumpstack from struct ip6t_entry and instead
puts it into xt_table_info. Not being restricted by 'comefrom'
anymore, we can set up a stack as needed. By default, there is room
allocated for two entries into the traverser.

arp_tables is not touched though, because there is just one/two
modules and further patches seek to collapse the table traverser
anyhow.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking 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.

Florian Westphal 3e5e524ffb netfilter: CONFIG_COMPAT: allow delta to exceed 32767
with 32 bit userland and 64 bit kernels, it is unlikely but possible
that insertion of new rules fails even tough there are only about 2000
iptables rules.

This happens because the compat delta is using a short int.
Easily reproducible via "iptables -m limit" ; after about 2050
rules inserting new ones fails with -ELOOP.

Note that compat_delta included 2 bytes of padding on x86_64, so
structure size remains the same.

The static initial tables are pretty large, and after the net

needed.

Jan Engelhardt 2b95efe7f6 netfilter: xtables: use xt_table for hook instantiation
The respective xt_table structures already have most of the metadata
needed for hook setup. Add a 'priority' field to struct xt_table so
that xt_hook_link() can be called with a reduced number of arguments.

So should we be having more tables in the future, it comes at no
static cost (only runtime, as before) - space saved:
6807373->6806555.

Jan Beulich 4481374ce8 mm: replace various uses of num_physpages by totalram_pages
Sizing of memory allocations shouldn't depend on the number of physical
pages found in a system, as that generally includes (perhaps a huge amount
of) non-RAM pages.  The amount of what actually is usable as storage
should instead be used as a basis here.

Some of the calculations (i.e.  those not intending to use high memory)
should likely even use (totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages).

Stephen Hemminger 942e4a2bd6 netfilter: revised locking for x_tables
The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies
of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer 
lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this
was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance
problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of
the necessary RCU grace period.

This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to
table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global
reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

Stephen Hemminger 784544739a netfilter: iptables: lock free counters
The reader/writer lock in ip_tables is acquired in the critical path of
processing packets and is one of the reasons just loading iptables can cause
a 20% performance loss. The rwlock serves two functions:

1) it prevents changes to table state (xt_replace) while table is in use.
   This is now handled by doing rcu on the xt_table. When table is
   replaced, the new table(s) are put in and the old one table(s) are freed
   after RCU period.

2) it provides synchronization when accesing the counter values.
   This is now handled by swapping in new table_info entries for each cpu
   then summing the old values, and putting the result back onto one
   cpu.  On a busy system it may cause sampling to occur at different
   times on each cpu, but no packet/byte counts are lost in the process.
