* net: core: add UID to flows, rules, and routesLorenzo Colitti2017-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Define a new FIB rule attributes, FRA_UID_RANGE, to describe a range of UIDs. - Define a RTA_UID attribute for per-UID route lookups and dumps. - Support passing these attributes to and from userspace via rtnetlink. The value INVALID_UID indicates no UID was specified. - Add a UID field to the flow structures.

* | rtnetlink: RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS support to avoid dumping inet/inet6 statsSowmini Varadhan2015-09-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many commonly used functions like getifaddrs() invoke RTM_GETLINK to dump the interface information, and do not need the the AF_INET6 statististics that are always returned by default from rtnl_fill_ifinfo(). Computing the statistics can be an expensive operation that impacts scaling, so it is desirable to avoid this if the information is not needed. This patch adds a the RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS extended info flag that can be passed with netlink_request() to avoid statistics computation for the ifinfo path.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We already have IFLA_IPTUN_ netlink attributes. The IP_TUN_ attributes look very similar, yet they serve very different purpose. This is confusing for anyone trying to implement a user space tool supporting lwt.

Also, it's more logical to have them in lwtunnel.h together with the encap enum.

* mpls: Netlink commands to add, remove, and dump routesEric W. Biederman2015-03-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change adds two new netlink routing attributes: RTA_VIA and RTA_NEWDST. RTA_VIA specifies the specifies the next machine to send a packet to like RTA_GATEWAY. RTA_VIA differs from RTA_GATEWAY in that it includes the address family of the address of the next machine to send a packet to. Currently the MPLS code supports addresses in AF_INET, AF_INET6 and AF_PACKET. For AF_INET and AF_INET6 the destination mac address is acquired from the neighbour table. For AF_PACKET the destination mac_address is specified in the netlink configuration. I think raw destination mac address support with the family AF_PACKET will prove useful. There is MPLS-TP which is defined to operate on machines that do not support internet packets of any flavor. Further seem to be corner cases where it can be useful. At this point I don't care much either way. RTA_NEWDST specifies the destination address to forward the packet with. MPLS typically changes it's destination address at every hop. For a swap operation RTA_NEWDST is specified with a length of one label. For a push operation RTA_NEWDST is specified with two or more labels. For a pop operation RTA_NEWDST is not specified or equivalently an emtpy RTAN_NEWDST is specified. Those new netlink attributes are used to implement handling of rt-netlink RTM_NEWROUTE, RTM_DELROUTE, and RTM_GETROUTE messages, to maintain the MPLS label table. rtm_to_route_config parses a netlink RTM_NEWROUTE or RTM_DELROUTE message, verify no unhandled attributes or unhandled values are present and sets up the data structures for mpls_route_add and mpls_route_del. I did my best to match up with the existing conventions with the caveats that MPLS addresses are all destination-specific-addresses, and so don't properly have a scope. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

* netns: add rtnl cmd to add and get peer netns idsNicolas Dichtel2015-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch, a user can define an id for a peer netns by providing a FD or a PID. These ids are local to the netns where it is added (ie valid only into this netns). The main function (ie the one exported to other module), peernet2id(), allows to get the id of a peer netns. If no id has been assigned by the user, this function allocates one. These ids will be used in netlink messages to point to a peer netns, for example in case of a x-netns interface.

* net: tcp: add RTAX_CC_ALGO fib handlingDaniel Borkmann2015-01-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the minimum necessary for the RTAX_CC_ALGO congestion control metric to be set up and dumped back to user space. While the internal representation of RTAX_CC_ALGO is handled as a u32 key, we avoided to expose this implementation detail to user space, thus instead, we chose the netlink attribute that is being exchanged between user space to be the actual congestion control algorithm name, similarly as in the setsockopt(2) API in order to allow for maximum flexibility, even for 3rd party modules. It is a bit unfortunate that RTAX_QUICKACK used up a whole RTAX slot as it should have been stored in RTAX_FEATURES instead, we first thought about reusing it for the congestion control key, but it brings more complications and/or confusion than worth it.

* tcp: introduce a per-route knob for quick ackCong Wang2013-06-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In previous discussions, I tried to find some reasonable heuristics for delayed ACK, however this seems not possible, according to Eric: "ACKS might also be delayed because of bidirectional traffic, and is more controlled by the application response time. TCP stack can not easily estimate it." "ACK can be incredibly useful to recover from losses in a short time. The vast majority of TCP sessions are small lived, and we send one ACK per received segment anyway at beginning or retransmits to let the sender smoothly increase its cwnd, so an auto-tuning facility wont help them that much." and according to David: "ACKs are the only information we have to detect loss. And, for the same reasons that TCP VEGAS is fundamentally broken, we cannot measure the pipe or some other receiver-side-visible piece of information to determine when it's "safe" to stretch ACK. And even if it's "safe", we should not do it so that losses are accurately detected and we don't spuriously retransmit. The only way to know when the bandwidth increases is to "test" it, by sending more and more packets until drops happen. That's why all successful congestion control algorithms must operate on explicited tested pieces of information. Similarly, it's not really possible to universally know if it's safe to stretch ACK or not." It still makes sense to enable or disable quick ack mode like what TCP_QUICK_ACK does. Similar to TCP_QUICK_ACK option, but for people who can't modify the source code and still wants to control TCP delayed ACK behavior. As David suggested, this should belong to per-path scope, since different pathes may want different behaviors.
