Re: [PATCH 18/30] netvm: INET reserves.

From: Daniel Lezcano
Date: Wed Oct 01 2008 - 07:38:48 EST


Add reserves for INET.

The two big users seem to be the route cache and ip-fragment cache.

Reserve the route cache under generic RX reserve, its usage is bounded by
the high reclaim watermark, and thus does not need further accounting.

Reserve the ip-fragement caches under SKB data reserve, these add to the
SKB RX limit. By ensuring we can at least receive as much data as fits in
the reassmbly line we avoid fragment attack deadlocks.

Adds to the reserve tree:

total network reserve network TX reserve protocol TX pages network RX reserve + IPv6 route cache + IPv4 route cache SKB data reserve + IPv6 fragment cache + IPv4 fragment cache

Sorry for the delay ...

[ cut ]

I removed a big portion of code because the remarks below apply to the rest of the code.

+static int sysctl_intvec_route(struct ctl_table *table,
+ int __user *name, int nlen,
+ void __user *oldval, size_t __user *oldlenp,
+ void __user *newval, size_t newlen)
+{
+ struct net *net = current->nsproxy->net_ns;

I think you can use the container_of and get rid of using current->nsproxy->net_ns.

struct net *net = container_of(table->data, struct net,
ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_max_size);

Another solution could be to pass directly the sysctl structure pointer in the table data instead of
".data = &init_net.ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_max_size" when initializing the sysctl table below. But you have to set the right field value yourself.

+ int write = (newval && newlen);
+ int new_size, ret;
+
+ mutex_lock(&net->ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_lock);
+
+ if (write)
+ table->data = &new_size;
+
+ ret = sysctl_intvec(table, name, nlen, oldval, oldlenp, newval, newlen);
+
+ if (!ret && write) {
+ ret = mem_reserve_kmem_cache_set(&net->ipv6.ip6_rt_reserve,
+ net->ipv6.ip6_dst_ops.kmem_cachep, new_size);
+ if (!ret)
+ net->ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_max_size = new_size;
+ }
+
+ if (write)
+ table->data = &net->ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_max_size;
+
+ mutex_unlock(&net->ipv6.sysctl.ip6_rt_lock);
+
+ return ret;
+}

Dancing with the table->data looks safe but it is not very nice.
Isn't possible to use a temporary table like in the function "ipv4_sysctl_local_port_range" ?

As this code seems related to the routes, is there a particular reason to not put it at the end of "ip6_route_net_init" function ? You will be sure "net->ipv6.ip6_dst_ops is already set-up", no ?

Idem.

Isn't "mem_reserve_disconnect" missing here ? (but going to ip6_route_net_exit)


I hope this review helped :)

Thanks
