net: ipv6: tcp reset, icmp need to consider L3 domain

2016-05-06T19:49:07+00:00

Responses for packets to unused ports are getting lost with L3 domains. IPv4 has ip_send_unicast_reply for sending TCP responses which accounts for L3 domains; update the IPv6 counterpart tcp_v6_send_response. For icmp the L3 master check needs to be moved up in icmp6_send to properly respond to UDP packets to a port with no listener.

ipv6: kill sk_dst_lock

2015-12-03T16:32:06+00:00

While testing the np->opt RCU conversion, I found that UDP/IPv6 was using a mixture of xchg() and sk_dst_lock to protect concurrent changes to sk->sk_dst_cache, leading to possible corruptions and crashes. ip6_sk_dst_lookup_flow() uses sk_dst_check() anyway, so the simplest way to fix the mess is to remove sk_dst_lock completely, as we did for IPv4. __ip6_dst_store() and ip6_dst_store() share same implementation. sk_setup_caps() being called with socket lock being held or not, we have to use sk_dst_set() instead of __sk_dst_set() Note that I had to move the "np->dst_cookie = rt6_get_cookie(rt);" in ip6_dst_store() before the sk_setup_caps(sk, dst) call. This is because ip6_dst_store() can be called from process context, without any lock held. As soon as the dst is installed in sk->sk_dst_cache, dst can be freed from another cpu doing a concurrent ip6_dst_store() Doing the dst dereference before doing the install is needed to make sure no use after free would trigger.

ipv6: icmp: include addresses in debug messages

2015-10-27T04:59:42+00:00

Messages like "icmp6_send: no reply to icmp error" are close to useless. Adding source and destination addresses to provide some more clue. Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add VRF support to IPv6 stack

2015-10-13T11:55:08+00:00

As with IPv4 support for VRFs added to IPv6 stack by replacing hardcoded table ids with possibly device specific ones and manipulating the oif in the flowi6. The flow flags are used to skip oif compare in nexthop lookups if the device is enslaved to a VRF via the L3 master device. Signed-off-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: change ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup to take net argument

2015-07-31T22:21:30+00:00

This patch adds net argument to ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup for use cases where sk is not available (like mpls). sk appears to be needed to get the namespace 'net' and is optional otherwise. This patch series changes ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup to take net argument. sk remains optional. All callers of ipv6_stub_impl.ipv6_dst_lookup have been modified to pass net. I have modified them to use already available 'net' in the scope of the call. I can change them to sock_net(sk) to avoid any unintended change in behaviour if sock namespace is different. They dont seem to be from code inspection. Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: Remove external dependency on rt6i_gateway and RTF_ANYCAST

2015-05-25T17:25:33+00:00

When creating a RTF_CACHE route, RTF_ANYCAST is set based on rt6i_dst. Also, rt6i_gateway is always set to the nexthop while the nexthop could be a gateway or the rt6i_dst.addr. After removing the rt6i_dst and rt6i_src dependency in the last patch, we also need to stop the caller from depending on rt6i_gateway and RTF_ANYCAST.

ipv6: Remove external dependency on rt6i_dst and rt6i_src

2015-05-25T17:25:32+00:00

This patch removes the assumptions that the returned rt is always a RTF_CACHE entry with the rt6i_dst and rt6i_src containing the destination and source address. The dst and src can be recovered from the calling site. We may consider to rename (rt6i_dst, rt6i_src) to (rt6i_key_dst, rt6i_key_src) later.

ipv6: coding style: comparison for equality with NULL

2015-03-31T17:51:54+00:00

The ipv6 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check for NULL pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code consistent by adopting the latter form.

ipv6: coding style improvements (remove assignment in if statements)

2014-11-24T02:00:56+00:00

This change has no functional impact and simply addresses some coding style issues detected by checkpatch. Specifically this change adjusts "if" statements which also include the assignment of a variable. No changes to the resultant object files result as determined by objdiff.
