net: sctp: get rid of SCTP_DBG_TSNS entirely

2013-07-02T07:08:03+00:00

After having reworked the debugging framework, Neil and Vlad agreed to get rid of the leftover SCTP_DBG_TSNS code for a couple of reasons: We can use systemtap scripts to investigate these things, we now have pr_debug() helpers that make life easier, and if we really need anything else besides those tools, we will be forced to come up with something better than we have there. Therefore, get rid of this ifdef debugging code entirely for now.

net: sctp: rework debugging framework to use pr_debug and friends

2013-07-02T06:22:13+00:00

We should get rid of all own SCTP debug printk macros and use the ones that the kernel offers anyway instead. This makes the code more readable and conform to the kernel code, and offers all the features of dynamic debbuging that pr_debug() et al has, such as only turning on/off portions of debug messages at runtime through debugfs. The runtime cost of having CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled, but none of the debug statements printing, is negligible [1]. If kernel debugging is completly turned off, then these statements will also compile into "empty" functions. While we're at it, we also need to change the Kconfig option as it /now/ only refers to the ifdef'ed code portions in outqueue.c that enable further debugging/tracing of SCTP transaction fields. Also, since SCTP_ASSERT code was enabled with this Kconfig option and has now been removed, we transform those code parts into WARNs resp. where appropriate BUG_ONs so that those bugs can be more easily detected as probably not many people have SCTP debugging permanently turned on. To turn on all SCTP debugging, the following steps are needed: # mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug # echo -n 'module sctp +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control This can be done more fine-grained on a per file, per line basis and others as described in [2].

sctp: fix Kconfig bug in default cookie hmac selection

2013-01-07T17:27:06+00:00

Commit 0d0863b02002 ("sctp: Change defaults on cookie hmac selection") added a "choice" to the sctp Kconfig file. It introduced a bug which led to an infinite loop when while running "make oldconfig". The problem is that the wrong symbol was defined as the default value for the choice. Using the correct value gets rid of the infinite loop. Note: if CONFIG_SCTP_COOKIE_HMAC_SHA1=y was present in the input config file, both that and CONFIG_SCTP_COOKIE_HMAC_MD5=y be present in the generated config file.

sctp: Change defaults on cookie hmac selection

2012-12-16T01:14:38+00:00

Recently I posted commit 3c68198e75 which made selection of the cookie hmac algorithm selectable. This is all well and good, but Linus noted that it changes the default config: http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=135536629004808&w=2 I've modified the sctp Kconfig file to reflect the recommended way of making this choice, using the thermal driver example specified, and brought the defaults back into line with the way they were prior to my origional patch Also, on Linus' suggestion, re-adding ability to select default 'none' hmac algorithm, so we don't needlessly bloat the kernel by forcing a non-none default. This also led me to note that we won't honor the default none condition properly because of how sctp_net_init is encoded. Fix that up as well. Tested by myself (allbeit fairly quickly). All configuration combinations seems to work soundly. Signed-off-by: Neil Horman CC: David Miller CC: Linus Torvalds CC: Vlad Yasevich CC: linux-sctp@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sctp: Make hmac algorithm selection for cookie generation dynamic

2012-10-26T06:22:18+00:00

Currently sctp allows for the optional use of md5 of sha1 hmac algorithms to generate cookie values when establishing new connections via two build time config options. Theres no real reason to make this a static selection. We can add a sysctl that allows for the dynamic selection of these algorithms at run time, with the default value determined by the corresponding crypto library availability. This comes in handy when, for example running a system in FIPS mode, where use of md5 is disallowed, but SHA1 is permitted. Note: This new sysctl has no corresponding socket option to select the cookie hmac algorithm. I chose not to implement that intentionally, as RFC 6458 contains no option for this value, and I opted not to pollute the socket option namespace. Change notes: v2) * Updated subject to have the proper sctp prefix as per Dave M. * Replaced deafult selection options with new options that allow developers to explicitly select available hmac algs at build time as per suggestion by Vlad Y.

sctp: implement sctp association probing module

2010-05-01T02:41:09+00:00

This patch implement sctp association probing module, the module will be called sctp_probe. This module allows for capturing the changes to SCTP association state in response to incoming packets. It is used for debugging SCTP congestion control algorithms. Usage: $ modprobe sctp_probe [full=n] [port=n] [bufsize=n] $ cat /proc/net/sctpprobe The output format is: TIME ASSOC LPORT RPORT MTU RWND UNACK ... The output will be like this: 9.226086 c4064c48 9000 8000 1500 53352 1 *192.168.0.19 1 4380 54784 1252 0 1500 9.287195 c4064c48 9000 8000 1500 45144 5 *192.168.0.19 1 5880 54784 6500 0 1500 9.289130 c4064c48 9000 8000 1500 42724 5 *192.168.0.19 1 7380 54784 6500 0 1500 9.620332 c4064c48 9000 8000 1500 48284 4 *192.168.0.19 1 8880 54784 5200 0 1500 ......

[SCTP]: Use crc32c library for checksum calculations.

2008-01-28T22:58:20+00:00

The crc32c library used an identical table and algorithm as SCTP. Switch to using the library instead of carrying our own table. Using crypto layer proved to have too much overhead compared to using the library directly. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

SCTP: Fix build issues with SCTP AUTH.

2007-11-29T15:17:42+00:00

SCTP-AUTH requires selection of CRYPTO, HMAC and SHA1 since SHA1 is a MUST requirement for AUTH. We also support SHA256, but that's optional, so fix the code to treat it as such. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich
