2015-07-02netfilter: arptables: use percpu jumpstackFlorian Westphal
commit 482cfc318559 ("netfilter: xtables: avoid percpu ruleset duplication") Unlike ip and ip6tables, arp tables were never converted to use the percpu jump stack. It still uses the rule blob to store return address, which isn't safe anymore since we now share this blob among all processors. Because there is no TEE support for arptables, we don't need to cope with reentrancy, so we can use loocal variable to hold stack offset.

2015-06-15netfilter: x_tables: remove XT_TABLE_INFO_SZ and a dereference.Eric Dumazet
After Florian patches, there is no need for XT_TABLE_INFO_SZ anymore : Only one copy of table is kept, instead of one copy per cpu. We also can avoid a dereference if we put table data right after xt_table_info. It reduces register pressure and helps compiler. Then, we attempt a kmalloc() if total size is under order-3 allocation, to reduce TLB pressure, as in many cases, rules fit in 32 KB.

2015-06-12netfilter: xtables: avoid percpu ruleset duplicationFlorian Westphal
We store the rule blob per (possible) cpu. Unfortunately this means we can waste lot of memory on big smp machines. ipt_entry structure ('rule head') is 112 byte, so e.g. with maxcpu=64 one single rule eats close to 8k RAM. Since previous patch made counters percpu it appears there is nothing left in the rule blob that needs to be percpu. On my test system (144 possible cpus, 400k dummy rules) this change saves close to 9 Gigabyte of RAM.

2015-06-12netfilter: xtables: use percpu rule countersFlorian Westphal
The binary arp/ip/ip6tables ruleset is stored per cpu. The only reason left as to why we need percpu duplication are the rule counters embedded into ipt_entry et al -- since each cpu has its own copy of the rules, all counters can be lockless. The downside is that the more cpus are supported, the more memory is required. Rules are not just duplicated per online cpu but for each possible cpu, i.e. if maxcpu is 144, then rule is duplicated 144 times, not for the e.g. 64 cores present. To save some memory and also improve utilization of shared caches it would be preferable to only store the rule blob once. So we first need to separate counters and the rule blob. Instead of using entry->counters, allocate this percpu and store the percpu address in entry->counters.pcnt on CONFIG_SMP. This change makes no sense as-is; it is merely an intermediate step to remove the percpu duplication of the rule set in a followup patch.

2014-04-05netfilter: Can't fail and free after table replacementThomas Graf
All xtables variants suffer from the defect that the copy_to_user() to copy the counters to user memory may fail after the table has already been exchanged and thus exposed. Return an error at this point will result in freeing the already exposed table. Any subsequent packet processing will result in a kernel panic. We can't copy the counters before exposing the new tables as we want provide the counter state after the old table has been unhooked. Therefore convert this into a silent error.

A dependent-read barrier is also added on the consumer sides, to ensure the same ordering requirements are also respected there. Cc: Paul E.

2011-04-04netfilter: get rid of atomic ops in fast pathEric Dumazet
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.

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)) ] Time of iptables goes from 35 s to 150 ms.

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.

2010-04-19netfilter: xtables: make ip_tables reentrantJan Engelhardt
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.
