7489aec8ee netfilter: xtables: stackptr should be percpu
commit f3c5c1bfd4 (netfilter: xtables: make ip_tables reentrant)
introduced a performance regression, because stackptr array is shared by
all cpus, adding cache line ping pongs. (16 cpus share a 64 bytes cache
line)

Fix this using alloc_percpu()

c936e8bd1d netfilter: don't xt_jumpstack_alloc twice in xt_register_table
In xt_register_table, xt_jumpstack_alloc is called first, later
xt_replace_table is used. But in xt_replace_table, xt_jumpstack_alloc
will be used again. Then the memory allocated by previous xt_jumpstack_alloc
will be leaked. We can simply remove the previous xt_jumpstack_alloc because
there aren't any users of newinfo between xt_jumpstack_alloc and
xt_replace_table.

50636af715 xt_tee: use skb_dst_drop()
After commit 7fee226a (net: add a noref bit on skb dst), its wrong to
use : dst_release(skb_dst(skb)), since we could decrement a refcount
while skb dst was not refcounted.

We should use skb_dst_drop(skb) instead.

fc350777c7 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix a race in __nf_conntrack_confirm against nf_ct_get_next_corpse()
This race was triggered by a 'conntrack -F' command running in parallel
to the insertion of a hash for a new connection. Losing this race led to
a dead conntrack entry effectively blocking traffic for a particular
connection until timeout or flushing the conntrack hashes again.
Now the check for an already dying connection is done inside the lock.

7fee226ad2 net: add a noref bit on skb dst
Use low order bit of skb->_skb_dst to tell dst is not refcounted.

Change _skb_dst to _skb_refdst to make sure all uses are catched.

skb_dst() returns the dst, regardless of noref bit set or not, but
with a lockdep check to make sure a noref dst is not given if current
user is not rcu protected.

New skb_dst_set_noref() helper to set an notrefcounted dst on a skb.
(with lockdep check)

skb_dst_drop() drops a reference only if skb dst was refcounted.

skb_dst_force() helper is used to force a refcount on dst, when skb
is queued and not anymore RCU protected.

Use skb_dst_force() in __sk_add_backlog(), __dev_xmit_skb() if
!IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE or skb enqueued on qdisc queue, in
sock_queue_rcv_skb(), in __nf_queue().

Use skb_dst_force() in dev_requeue_skb().

Note: dst_use_noref() still dirties dst, we might transform it
later to do one dirtying per jiffies.

all the unnecessary return; statements that precede the

It does not remove the returns that are immediately

f3c5c1bfd4 netfilter: xtables: make ip_tables reentrant
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.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The return value of nf_ct_l3proto_get can directly be returned even in
the case of success.

4a5a5c73b7 netfilter: xtables: slightly better error reporting
When extended status codes are available, such as ENOMEM on failed
allocations, or subsequent functions (e.g. nf_ct_get_l3proto), passing
them up to userspace seems like a good idea compared to just always
EINVAL.

135367b8f6 netfilter: xtables: change xt_target.checkentry return type
Restore function signatures from bool to int so that we can report
memory allocation failures or similar using -ENOMEM rather than
always having to pass -EINVAL back.

// <smpl>
@@
type bool;
identifier check, par;
@@
-bool check

Minus the change it does to xt_ct_find_proto.

Restore function signatures from bool to int so that we can report
memory allocation failures or similar using -ENOMEM rather than
always having to pass -EINVAL back.

This semantic patch may not be too precise (checking for functions
that use xt_mtchk_param rather than functions referenced by
xt_match.checkentry), but reviewed, it produced the intended result.
