[PATCH v2 net-next 00/12] Generic TX reallocation for DSA

[PATCH v2 net-next 00/12] Generic TX reallocation for DSA

[Vladimir Oltean]

Christian has reported buggy usage of skb_put() in tag_ksz.c, which is
only triggerable in real life using his not-yet-published patches for
IEEE 1588 timestamping on Micrel KSZ switches.

The concrete problem there is that the driver can end up calling
skb_put() and exceed the end of the skb data area, because even though
it had reallocated the frame once before, it hadn't reallocated it large
enough. Christian explained it in more detail here:

https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20201014161719.30289-1-ceggers@arri.de/
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20201016200226.23994-1-ceggers@arri.de/

But actually there's a bigger problem, which is that some taggers which
get more rarely tested tend to do some shenanigans which are uncaught
for the longest time, and in the meanwhile, their code gets copy-pasted
into other taggers, creating a mess. For example, the tail tagging
driver for Marvell 88E6060 currently reallocates _every_single_frame_ on
TX. Is that an obvious indication that nobody is using it? Sure. Is it a
good model to follow when developing a new tail tagging driver? No.

DSA has all the information it needs in order to simplify the job of a
tagger on TX. It knows whether it's a normal or a tail tagger, and what
is the protocol overhead it incurs. So this series performs the
reallocation centrally.

Changes in v2:
- Dropped the tx_realloc counters for now, since the patch was pretty
  controversial and I lack the time at the moment to introduce new UAPI
  for that.
- Do padding for tail taggers irrespective of whether they need to
  reallocate the skb or not.

[PATCH v2 net-next 01/12] net: dsa: implement a central TX reallocation procedure

[Vladimir Oltean]

At the moment, taggers are left with the task of ensuring that the skb
headers are writable (which they aren't, if the frames were cloned for
TX timestamping, for flooding by the bridge, etc), and that there is
enough space in the skb data area for the DSA tag to be pushed.

Moreover, the life of tail taggers is even harder, because they need to
ensure that short frames have enough padding, a problem that normal
taggers don't have.

The principle of the DSA framework is that everything except for the
most intimate hardware specifics (like in this case, the actual packing
of the DSA tag bits) should be done inside the core, to avoid having
code paths that are very rarely tested.

So provide a TX reallocation procedure that should cover the known needs
of DSA today.

Note that this patch also gives the network stack a good hint about the
headroom/tailroom it's going to need. Up till now it wasn't doing that.
So the reallocation procedure should really be there only for the
exceptional cases, and for cloned packets which need to be unshared.
The tx_reallocs counter should prove that.

Just showing my ignorance, but where does the hardirq context come from?

I mean I do see that netpoll_send_udp requires IRQs disabled, but is
that the only reason why all drivers need to assume hardirq context in
.xmit, or are there more?

netpoll is the only one that comes to my mind, maybe others know more..

[PATCH v2 net-next 08/12] net: dsa: tag_edsa: let DSA core deal with TX reallocation

[Vladimir Oltean]

Now that we have a central TX reallocation procedure that accounts for
the tagger's needed headroom in a generic way, we can remove the
skb_cow_head call.

Note that the VLAN code path needs a smaller extra headroom than the
regular EtherType DSA path. That isn't a problem, because this tagger
declares the larger tag length (8 bytes vs 4) as the protocol overhead,
so we are covered in both cases.

[PATCH v2 net-next 10/12] net: dsa: tag_dsa: let DSA core deal with TX reallocation

[Vladimir Oltean]

Now that we have a central TX reallocation procedure that accounts for
the tagger's needed headroom in a generic way, we can remove the
skb_cow_head call.

Similar to the EtherType DSA tagger, the old Marvell tagger can
transform an 802.1Q header if present into a DSA tag, so there is no
headroom required in that case. But we are ensuring that it exists,
regardless (practically speaking, the headroom must be 4 bytes larger
than it needs to be).

[PATCH v2 net-next 11/12] net: dsa: tag_gswip: let DSA core deal with TX reallocation

[Vladimir Oltean]

Now that we have a central TX reallocation procedure that accounts for
the tagger's needed headroom in a generic way, we can remove the
skb_cow_head call.

This one is interesting, the DSA tag is 8 bytes on RX and 4 bytes on TX.
Because DSA is unaware of asymmetrical tag lengths, the overhead/needed
headroom is declared as 8 bytes and therefore 4 bytes larger than it
needs to be. If this becomes a problem, and the GSWIP driver can't be
converted to a uniform header length, we might need to make DSA aware of
separate RX/TX overhead values.
