Since ->upl is used to protect the pointer to the parent unit, it probably makes sense to use it for ->bridge too, which somehow replaces the parent unit (as both are mutually exclusive).

Therefore, it'd still be possible to set both ->ppp and ->bridge on a channel. > + spin_lock(&pchb->downl); > + > + if (pch->bridge || pchb->bridge) > + goto out2; > + > + rcu_assign_pointer(pch->bridge, pchb); > + refcount_inc(&pchb->file.refcnt); > + > + rcu_assign_pointer(pchb->bridge, pch); > + refcount_inc(&pch->file.refcnt); > + > + ret = 0; > + > +out2: > + spin_unlock(&pchb->downl); > +out1: > + read_unlock_bh(&pchb->upl); > + spin_unlock(&pch->downl); > +out0: > + read_unlock_bh(&pch->upl); > + > + return ret; > +} Locking looks dangerous here: given that ppp_bridge_channels() is called with pn->all_channels_lock held, that's 5 nested locks. Since we have to hold the channels anyway, why not incrementing the refcount immediately and unlock everything as soon as possible? That is, instead of doing: LOCK(all_channels_lock) LOCK(channel->upl) LOCK(channel->downl) LOCK(bridge->upl) LOCK(bridge->downl) assign_pointers UNLOCK() ... UNLOCK() what about something like: LOCK(all_channels_lock) bridge = find_channel() refcount_inc(&bridge->refcount) UNLOCK(all_channels_lock) LOCK(channel->upl) LOCK(channel->downl) set ->bridge UNLOCK(channel->downl) UNLOCK(channel->upl) refcount_inc(&channel->refcount) // so that bridge holds a ref LOCK(bridge->upl) LOCK(bridge->downl) set ->bridge UNLOCK(bridge->downl) UNLOCK(bridge->upl) We could even avoid locking ->downl if ->bridge was protected directly by ->upl. That way we'd avoid nesting locks entirely. > +static int ppp_unbridge_channels(struct channel *pch) > +{ > + struct channel *pchb; > + > + rcu_read_lock(); > + > + pchb = rcu_dereference(pch->bridge); > + if (!pchb) { > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + return -ENXIO; > + } > + > + if (pch != rcu_dereference(pchb->bridge)) { > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + return -ENXIO; > + } Looks like we have a TOCTOU problem here: ->bridge might change before we lock ->downl. > + spin_lock(&pch->downl); > + spin_lock(&pchb->downl); I think we can have a deadlock here. Since ppp_unbridge_channels() isn't running under the protection of an external lock, we could have the bridge channel call this function concurrently. Then we'd have lock inversion: ppp_unbridge_channels(channel) ppp_unbridge_channels(bridge) LOCK(channel->downl) LOCK(bridge->downl) LOCK(bridge->downl) LOCK(channel->downl) // deadlock Here again I think we should avoid nesting locks and clear each ->bridge pointer independently. > + rcu_assign_pointer(pch->bridge, NULL); > + rcu_assign_pointer(pchb->bridge, NULL); Nit, we can use RCU_INIT_POINTER() when resetting a pointer with NULL. > + spin_unlock(&pchb->downl); > + spin_unlock(&pch->downl); > + > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + > + synchronize_rcu(); > + > + if (refcount_dec_and_test(&pch->file.refcnt)) > + ppp_destroy_channel(pch); > + > + if (refcount_dec_and_test(&pchb->file.refcnt)) > + ppp_destroy_channel(pchb); > + > + return 0; > +} > + > static long ppp_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) > { > struct ppp_file *pf; > @@ -641,8 +731,9 @@ static long ppp_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) > } > > if (pf->kind == CHANNEL) { > - struct channel *pch; > + struct channel *pch, *pchb; > struct ppp_channel *chan; > + struct ppp_net *pn; > > pch = PF_TO_CHANNEL(pf); > > @@ -657,6 +748,22 @@ static long ppp_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg) > err = ppp_disconnect_channel(pch); > break; > > + case PPPIOCBRIDGECHAN: > + if (get_user(unit, p)) > + break; > + err = -ENXIO; > + pn = ppp_pernet(current->nsproxy->net_ns); > + spin_lock_bh(&pn->all_channels_lock); > + pchb = ppp_find_channel(pn, unit); > + if (pchb) > + err = ppp_bridge_channels(pch, pchb); > + spin_unlock_bh(&pn->all_channels_lock); > + break; > + > + case PPPIOCUNBRIDGECHAN: > + err = ppp_unbridge_channels(pch); > + break; > + > default: > down_read(&pch->chan_sem); > chan = pch->chan; > @@ -2089,6 +2196,35 @@ static bool ppp_decompress_proto(struct sk_buff *skb) > return pskb_may_pull(skb, 2); > } > > +/* Attempt to handle a frame via. a bridged channel, if one exists. > + * If the channel is bridged, the frame is consumed by the bridge. > + * If not, the caller must handle the frame by normal recv mechanisms. > + * Returns true if the frame is consumed, false otherwise. > + */ > +static bool ppp_channel_bridge_input(struct channel *pch, struct sk_buff *skb) > +{ > + struct channel *pchb; > + > + rcu_read_lock(); > + pchb = rcu_dereference(pch->bridge); > + if (pchb) { > + spin_lock(&pchb->downl); > + if (pchb->chan) { > + skb_scrub_packet(skb, !net_eq(pch->chan_net, pchb->chan_net)); > + if (!pchb->chan->ops->start_xmit(pchb->chan, skb)) > + kfree_skb(skb); > + } else { > + /* channel got unregistered */ > + kfree_skb(skb); > + } > + spin_unlock(&pchb->downl); > + } > + rcu_read_unlock(); > + > + /* If pchb is set then we've consumed the packet */ > + return pchb; > +} Maybe "return !!pchb;". I always find it unexpected to store a pointer into a bool. But maybe it's just me.

Thanks for your review Guillaume. I'll work on integrating your comments (and a fix for the build test robot warning) into a v2 series.

This new ioctl pair allows two ppp channels to be bridged together: frames arriving in one channel are transmitted in the other channel and vice versa. The practical use for this is primarily to support the L2TP Access Concentrator use-case. The end-user session is presented as a ppp channel (typically PPPoE, although it could be e.g. PPPoA, or even PPP over a serial link) and is switched into a PPPoL2TP session for transmission to the LNS. At the LNS the PPP session is terminated in the ISP's network. When a PPP channel is bridged to another it takes a reference on the other's struct ppp_file. This reference is dropped when the channels are unbridged, which can occur either explicitly on userspace calling the PPPIOCUNBRIDGECHAN ioctl, or implicitly when either channel in the bridge is unregistered. In order to implement the channel bridge, struct channel is extended with a new field, 'bridge', which points to the other struct channel making up the bridge. This pointer is RCU protected to avoid adding another lock to the data path. To guard against concurrent writes to the pointer, the existing struct channel lock 'downl' use is extended (rather than adding a new lock). Order of lock acquisition is maintained: i.e. the channel 'upl' lock is always acquired before 'downl' in code paths that need to hold both.
