13 years agoipv6: Silence privacy extensions initialization
Romain Francoise [Mon, 17 Jan 2011 07:59:18 +0000 (07:59 +0000)]
ipv6: Silence privacy extensions initialization

When a network namespace is created (via CLONE_NEWNET), the loopback
interface is automatically added to the new namespace, triggering a
printk in ipv6_add_dev() if CONFIG_IPV6_PRIVACY is set.

This is problematic for applications which use CLONE_NEWNET as
part of a sandbox, like Chromium's suid sandbox or recent versions of
vsftpd. On a busy machine, it can lead to thousands of useless
"lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions" messages appearing in dmesg.

It's easy enough to check the status of privacy extensions via the
use_tempaddr sysctl, so just removing the printk seems like the most
sensible solution.

GRETH: resolve SMP issues and other problems

Fixes the following:
1. POLL should not enable IRQ when work is not completed
2. No locking between TX descriptor cleaning and XMIT descriptor handling
3. No locking between RX POLL and XMIT modifying control register
4. Since TX cleaning (called from POLL) is running in parallel with XMIT
   unnecessary locking is needed.
5. IRQ handler looks at RX frame status solely, this is wrong when IRQ is
   temporarily disabled (in POLL), and when IRQ is shared.
6. IRQ handler clears IRQ status, which is unnecessary
7. TX queue was stopped in preventing cause when not MAX_SKB_FRAGS+1
   descriptors were available after a SKB been scheduled by XMIT. Instead
   the TX queue is stopped first when not enough descriptors are available
   upon entering XMIT.

It was hard to split up this patch in smaller pieces since all are tied
together somehow.

Note the RX flag used in the interrupt handler does not signal that
interrupt was asserted, but that a frame was received. Same goes for TX.
Also, IRQ is not asserted when the RX flag is set before enabling IRQ
enable until a new frame is received. So extra care must be taken to
avoid enabling IRQ and all descriptors are already used, hence dead lock
will upon us. See new POLL implementation that enableds IRQ then look at
the RX flag to determine if one or more IRQs may have been missed. TX/RX
flags are cleared before handling previously enabled descriptors, this
ensures that the RX/TX flags are valid when determining if IRQ should be
turned on again.

By moving TX cleaning from POLL to XMIT in the standard case, removes some
locking trouble. Enabling TX cleaning from poll only when not enough TX
descriptors are available is safe because the TX queue is at the same time
stopped, thus XMIT will not be called. The TX queue is woken up again when
enough descriptrs are available.

TX Frames are always enabled with IRQ, however the TX IRQ Enable flag will
not be enabled until XMIT must wait for free descriptors.

Locking RX and XMIT parts of the driver from each other is needed because
the RX/TX enable bits share the same register.

netfilter: fix race in conntrack between dump_table and destroy

The netlink interface to dump the connection tracking table has a race
when entries are deleted at the same time. A customer reported a crash
and the backtrace showed thatctnetlink_dump_table was running while a
conntrack entry was being destroyed.
(see https://bugzilla.vyatta.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6402).

According to RCU documentation, when using hlist_nulls the reader
must handle the case of seeing a deleted entry and not proceed
further down the linked list.  The old code would continue
which caused the scan to walk into the free list.

This patch uses locking (rather than RCU) for this operation which
is guaranteed safe, and no longer requires getting reference while
doing dump operation.
