[RFC v3 nf-next 00/15] netfilter: conntrack: remove percpu lists

[RFC v3 nf-next 00/15] netfilter: conntrack: remove percpu lists

[Florian Westphal]

Do not apply, I will re-target this to next cycle.

This is a resend of the 'remove the percpu dying list' series
(patches 1-7), with the reported build failures resolved.

The rest of the patches are the second part: remove the unconfirmed
list.  After this series, the percpu lists are gone.

Florian Westphal (15):
  nfnetlink: handle already-released nl socket
  netfilter: ctnetlink: make ecache event cb global again
  netfilter: ecache: move to separate structure
  netfilter: ecache: use dedicated list for event redelivery
  netfilter: conntrack: split inner loop of list dumping to own function
  netfilter: conntrack: include ecache dying list in dumps
  netfilter: conntrack: remove the percpu dying list
  netfilter: cttimeout: inc/dec module refcount per object, not per use
    refcount
  netfilter: nfnetlink_cttimeout: use rcu protection in
    cttimeout_get_timeout
  netfilter: cttimeout: decouple unlink and free on netns destruction
  netfilter: remove nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy helper
  netfilter: extensions: introduce extension genid count
  netfilter: cttimeout: decouple unlink and free on netns destruction
  netfilter: conntrack: remove __nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy
  netfilter: conntrack: remove unconfirmed list

[RFC v3 nf-next 01/15] nfnetlink: handle already-released nl socket

[Florian Westphal]

At this time upper layer, e.g. nf_conntrack_event, has to make sure that
its pernet exit handler runs before the nfnetlink one, otherwise we get a
crash if kernel tries to send a conntrack event after the nfnetlink netns
exit handler did close the socket already.

In order to move nf_conntrack_ecache to global (not pernet) netns event
pointer again the nfnetlink apis need to survive attempts to send a netlink
message after the socket has been destroyed in nfnetlink netns exit
function.

Set the pernet socket to null in the pre_exit handler and close it in the
exit_batch handler via a 'stash' pointer.

All functions now check nlsk for NULL before using it.

[RFC v3 nf-next 02/15] netfilter: ctnetlink: make ecache event cb global again

[Florian Westphal]

This was pernet to make sure we do not trip over already closed nfnl sk.

After moving nfnl validity checks to nfnetlink core this can be global
again, it only needs to be set to NULL when the module is removed.

This also avoids the need for pernet ops in ctnetlink and register mutex.

[RFC v3 nf-next 04/15] netfilter: ecache: use dedicated list for event redelivery

[Florian Westphal]

This disentangles event redelivery and the percpu dying list.

Because entries are now stored on a dedicated list, all
entries are in NFCT_ECACHE_DESTROY_FAIL state and all entries
still have confirmed bit set -- the reference count is at least 1.

The 'struct net' back-pointer can be removed as well.

The pcpu dying list will be removed eventually, it has no functionality.

[RFC v3 nf-next 07/15] netfilter: conntrack: remove the percpu dying list

[Florian Westphal]

Its no longer needed. Entries that need event redelivery are placed
on the new pernet dying list.

The advantage is that there is no need to take additional spinlock on
conntrack removal unless event redelivery failed or the conntrack entry
was never added to the table in the first place (confirmed bit not set).

[RFC v3 nf-next 08/15] netfilter: cttimeout: inc/dec module refcount per object, not per use refcount

[Florian Westphal]

There is no need to increment the module refcount again, its enough to
obtain one reference per object, i.e. take a reference on object
creation and put it on object destruction.

[RFC v3 nf-next 09/15] netfilter: nfnetlink_cttimeout: use rcu protection in cttimeout_get_timeout

[Florian Westphal]

I'd like to be able to switch lifetime management of ctnl_timeout
to free-on-zero-refcount.

This isn't possible at the moment because removal of the structures
from the pernet list requires the nfnl mutex and release may happen from
softirq.

Current solution is to prevent this by disallowing policy object removal
if the refcount is > 1 (i.e., policy is still referenced from the ruleset).

Switch traversal to rcu-read-lock as a first step to reduce reliance on
nfnl mutex protection: removal from softirq would require a extra list
spinlock.

[RFC v3 nf-next 10/15] netfilter: cttimeout: decouple unlink and free on netns destruction

[Florian Westphal]

Make it so netns pre_exit unlinks the objects from the pernet list, so
they cannot be found anymore.

netns core issues a synchronize_rcu() before calling the exit hooks so
any the time the exit hooks run unconfirmed nf_conn entries have been
free'd or they have been committed to the hashtable.

The exit hook still tags unconfirmed entries as dying, this can
now be removed in a followup change.

[RFC v3 nf-next 11/15] netfilter: remove nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy helper

[Florian Westphal]

This helper tags connetions not yet in the conntrack table as
dying.  These nf_conn entries will be dropped instead when the
core attempts to insert them from the input or postrouting
'confirm' hook.

After the previous change, the entries get unlinked from the
list earlier, so that by the time the actual exit hook runs,
new connections no longer have a timeout policy assigned.

Its enough to walk the hashtable instead.

[RFC v3 nf-next 12/15] netfilter: extensions: introduce extension genid count

[Florian Westphal]

Multiple netfilter extensions store pointers to external data
in their extension area struct.

Examples:
1. Timeout policies
2. Connection tracking helpers.

No references are taken for these.

When a helper or timeout policy is removed, the conntrack table gets
traversed and affected extensions are cleared.

Conntrack entries not yet in the hashtable are referenced via a special
list, the unconfirmed list.

On removal of a policy or connection tracking helper, the unconfirmed
list gets traversed an all entries are marked as dying, this prevents
them from getting committed to the table at insertion time: core checks
for dying bit, if set, the conntrack entry gets destroyed at confirm
time.

The disadvantage is that each new conntrack has to be added to the
percpu unconfirmed list, and each insertion needs to remove it from
this list. The list is only ever needed when a policy or helper is
removed -- a rare occurence.

Add a generation ID count: Instead of adding to the list and then
traversing that list on policy/helper removal, increment a counter
that is stored in the extension area.

For unconfirmed conntracks, the extension has the genid valid at
conntrack allocation time.

Removal of a helper/policy etc. increments the counter.
At confirmation time, validate that ext->genid == global_id.

If the stored number is not the same, do not allow the conntrack
insertion, just like as if a confirmed-list traversal would have flagged
the entry as dying.

After insertion, the genid is no longer relevant (conntrack entries
are now reachable via the conntrack table iterators and is set to 0.

This allows removal of the percpu unconfirmed list.

[RFC v3 nf-next 13/15] netfilter: cttimeout: decouple unlink and free on netns destruction

[Florian Westphal]

Increment the extid on module removal; this makes sure that even
in extreme cases any old uncofirmed entry that happened to be kept
e.g. on nfnetlink_queue list will not trip over a stale timeout
reference.

[RFC v3 nf-next 14/15] netfilter: conntrack: remove __nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy

[Florian Westphal]

Its not needed anymore:

A. If entry is totally new, then the rcu-protected resource
must already have been removed from global visibility before call
to nf_ct_iterate_destroy.

B. If entry was allocated before, but is not yet in the hash table
   (uncofirmed case), genid gets incremented and synchronize_rcu() call
   makes sure access has completed.

C. Next attempt to peek at extension area will fail for unconfirmed
  conntracks, because ext->genid != genid.

D. Conntracks in the hash are iterated as before.
