[PATCH] tcp: make tcp_sock_set_bufsize() static (again)
by Laurent Vivier 27 Dec '23

27 Dec '23

e5eefe77435a ("tcp: Refactor to use events instead of states, split out spliced implementation") has exported tcp_sock_set_bufsize() to be able to use it in tcp_splice.c, but 6ccab72d9b40 has removed its use in tcp_splice.c, so we can set it static again.

[PATCH] checksum: Don't use linux/icmp.h when netinet/ip_icmp.h will do
by David Gibson 27 Dec '23

[PATCH v2 0/4] TCP hash table changes, in preparation for flow table
by David Gibson 27 Dec '23

27 Dec '23

I now have an in-progress draft of a unified hash table to go with the unified flow table. This turns out to be easier if we first make some preliminary changes to the structure of the TCP hash table. So, here are those. Changes since v1: * Use while loops instead of some equivalent, but hard to read for loops for the hash probing. * Switch from probing forwards through hash buckets to probing backwards. This makes the code closer to the version in Knuth its based on, and thus easier to see if we've made a mistake in adaptation. * Improve the helpers for modular arithmetic in use * Correct an error where we had things exactly the wrong way around when finding entries to move during removal. * Add a patch fixing a conceptual / documentation problem in some adjacent code David Gibson (4): tcp: Fix conceptually incorrect byte-order switch in tcp_tap_handler() tcp: Switch hash table to linear probing instead of chaining tcp: Implement hash table with indices rather than pointers tcp: Don't account for hash table size in tcp_hash() flow.h | 11 +++++ tcp.c | 143 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- tcp_conn.h | 2 - util.h | 28 +++++++++++ 4 files changed, 114 insertions(+), 70 deletions(-) -- 2.43.0

[PATCH] netlink: Fetch most specific (longest prefix) address in nl_addr_get()
by Stefano Brivio 27 Dec '23

27 Dec '23

This happened in most cases implicitly before commit eff3bcb24547 ("netlink: Split nl_addr() into separate operation functions"): while going through results from netlink, we would only copy an address into the provided return buffer if no address had been picked yet. Because of the insertion logic in the kernel (ipv6_link_dev_addr()), the first returned address would also be the one added last, and, in case of a Linux guest using a DHCPv6 client as well as SLAAC, that would be the address assigned via DHCPv6, because SLAAC happens before the DHCPv6 exchange. The effect of, instead, picking the last returned address (first assigned) is visible when passt or pasta runs nested, given that, by default, they advertise a prefix for SLAAC usage, plus an address via DHCPv6. The first level (L1 guest) would get a /64 address by means of SLAAC, and a /128 address via DHCPv6, the latter matching the address on the host. The second level (L2 guest) would also get two addresses: a /64 via SLAAC (same prefix as the host), and a /128 via DHCPv6, matching the the L1 SLAAC-assigned address, not the one obtained via DHCPv6. That is, none of the L2 addresses would match the address on the host. The whole point of having a DHCPv6 server is to avoid (implicit) NAT when possible, though. Fix this in a more explicit way than the behaviour we initially had: pick the first address among the set of most specific ones, by comparing prefix lengths. Do this for IPv4 and for link-local addresses, too, to match in any case the implementation of the default source address selection.

[PATCH] tcp: Cast timeval fields to unsigned long long for printing
by Stefano Brivio 27 Dec '23

27 Dec '23

On x32, glibc defines time_t and suseconds_t (the latter, also known as __syscall_slong_t) as unsigned long long, whereas "everywhere else", including x86_64 and i686, those are unsigned long.

[PATCH v2 00/13] Manage more flow related things from generic flow code
by David Gibson 20 Dec '23

20 Dec '23

There are a number of things that are more-or-less general to flows which are still explicitly handled in tcp.c and tcp_splice.c including allocation and freeing of flow entries, and dispatch of deferred and timer functions. Even without adding more fields to the common flow structure, we can handle a number of these in a more flow-centric way. Unlike v1 this version is based on the hash table rework series. Changes since v1: * Store the timestamp of last flow timers run in a global, rather than a ctx field * Rebased on the TCP hash table rework * Add patches 9..13/13 with changes to allocation and freeing of flow entries. David Gibson (13): flow: Make flow_table.h #include the protocol specific headers it needs treewide: Standardise on 'now' for current timestamp variables tcp, tcp_splice: Remove redundant handling from tcp_timer() tcp, tcp_splice: Move per-type cleanup logic into per-type helpers flow, tcp: Add flow-centric dispatch for deferred flow handling flow, tcp: Add handling for per-flow timers epoll: Better handling of number of epoll types tcp, tcp_splice: Avoid double layered dispatch for connected TCP sockets flow: Move flow_log_() to near top of flow.c flow: Move flow_count from context structure to a global flow: Abstract helpers for allocating new flows flow: Enforce that freeing of closed flows must happen in deferred handlers flow: Avoid moving flow entries to compact table flow.c | 201 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- flow.h | 5 +- flow_table.h | 34 +++++++++ icmp.c | 12 +-- icmp.h | 2 +- log.c | 34 ++++----- passt.c | 20 +++-- passt.h | 9 +-- tcp.c | 139 ++++++++--------------------------- tcp.h | 2 +- tcp_conn.h | 8 +- tcp_splice.c | 60 +++++++-------- tcp_splice.h | 6 +- udp.c | 16 ++-- udp.h | 2 +- 15 files changed, 317 insertions(+), 233 deletions(-) -- 2.43.0
