2016-11-10ipv6: add source address argument for ipv6_push_nfrag_optsDavid Lebrun1-1/+2
This patch prepares for insertion of SRH through setsockopt(). The new source address argument is used when an HMAC field is present in the SRH, which must be filled. The HMAC signature process requires the source address as input text. Signed-off-by: David Lebrun <david.lebrun@uclouvain.be> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-05-03ipv6: add new struct ipcm6_cookieWei Wang1-6/+12
In the sendmsg function of UDP, raw, ICMP and l2tp sockets, we use local variables like hlimits, tclass, opt and dontfrag and pass them to corresponding functions like ip6_make_skb, ip6_append_data and xxx_push_pending_frames. This is not a good practice and makes it hard to add new parameters. This fix introduces a new struct ipcm6_cookie similar to ipcm_cookie in ipv4 and include the above mentioned variables. And we only pass the pointer to this structure to corresponding functions. This makes it easier to add new parameters in the future and makes the function cleaner.

2016-04-14ipv6: udp: Do a route lookup and update during release_cbMartin KaFai Lau1-0/+1
This patch adds a release_cb for UDPv6. It does a route lookup and updates sk->sk_dst_cache if it is needed. It picks up the left-over job from ip6_sk_update_pmtu() if the sk was owned by user during the pmtu update. It takes a rcu_read_lock to protect the __sk_dst_get() operations because another thread may do ip6_dst_store() without taking the sk lock (e.g. sendmsg).

2016-04-14ipv6: datagram: Update dst cache of a connected datagram sk during pmtu updateMartin KaFai Lau1-0/+1
There is a case in connected UDP socket such that getsockopt(IPV6_MTU) will return a stale MTU value. The reproducible sequence could be the following: 1. Create a connected UDP socket 2. Send some datagrams out 3. Receive a ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG 4. No new outgoing datagrams to trigger the sk_dst_check() logic to update the sk->sk_dst_cache. 5. getsockopt(IPV6_MTU) returns the mtu from the invalid sk->sk_dst_cache instead of the newly created RTF_CACHE clone. This patch updates the sk->sk_dst_cache for a connected datagram sk during pmtu-update code path. Note that the sk->sk_v6_daddr is used to do the route lookup instead of skb->data (i.e. iph). It is because a UDP socket can become connected after sending out some datagrams in un-connected state. or It can be connected multiple times to different destinations. Hence, iph may not be related to where sk is currently connected to. It is done under '!sock_owned_by_user(sk)' condition because the user may make another ip6_datagram_connect() (i.e changing the sk->sk_v6_daddr) while dst lookup is happening in the pmtu-update code path. For the sock_owned_by_user(sk) == true case, the next patch will introduce a release_cb() which will update the sk->sk_dst_cache.

2016-04-04sock: enable timestamping using control messagesSoheil Hassas Yeganeh1-2/+4
Currently, SOL_TIMESTAMPING can only be enabled using setsockopt. This is very costly when users want to sample writes to gather tx timestamps. Add support for enabling SO_TIMESTAMPING via control messages by using tsflags added in `struct sockcm_cookie` (added in the previous patches in this series) to set the tx_flags of the last skb created in a sendmsg. With this patch, the timestamp recording bits in tx_flags of the skbuff is overridden if SO_TIMESTAMPING is passed in a cmsg. Please note that this is only effective for overriding the recording timestamps flags. Users should enable timestamp reporting (e.g., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE | SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) using socket options and then should ask for SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_* using control messages per sendmsg to sample timestamps for each write.

2016-03-20vxlan: fix populating tclass in vxlan6_get_routeDaniel Borkmann1-0/+6
Jiri mentioned that flowi6_tos of struct flowi6 is never used/read anywhere. In fact, rest of the kernel uses the flowi6's flowlabel, where the traffic class _and_ the flowlabel (aka flowinfo) is encoded. For example, for policy routing, fib6_rule_match() uses ip6_tclass() that is applied on the flowlabel member for matching on tclass. Similar fix is needed for geneve, where flowi6_tos is set as well. Installing a v6 blackhole rule that f.e. matches on tos is now working with vxlan.

2015-12-10ipv6: add ipv6_addr_prefix_copyAlexander Aring1-0/+15
This patch adds a static inline function ipv6_addr_prefix_copy which copies a ipv6 address prefix(argument pfx) into the ipv6 address prefix. The prefix len is given by plen as bits. This function mainly based on ipv6_addr_prefix which copies one address prefix from address into a new ipv6 address destination and zero all other address bits. The difference is that ipv6_addr_prefix_copy don't get a prefix from an ipv6 address, it sets a prefix to an ipv6 address with keeping other address bits. The use case is for context based address compression inside 6LoWPAN IPHC header which keeping ipv6 prefixes inside a context table to lookup address-bits without sending them.

2015-11-25ipv6: distinguish frag queues by device for multicast and link-local packetsMichal Kubeček1-0/+1
If a fragmented multicast packet is received on an ethernet device which has an active macvlan on top of it, each fragment is duplicated and received both on the underlying device and the macvlan. If some fragments for macvlan are processed before the whole packet for the underlying device is reassembled, the "overlapping fragments" test in ip6_frag_queue() discards the whole fragment queue. To resolve this, add device ifindex to the search key and require it to match reassembling multicast packets and packets to link-local addresses.

2015-09-18netfilter: Pass net into okfnEric W. Biederman1-1/+1
This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that call into netfilter. Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process packets in. As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in many cases a code simplification. To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn just silently drops the struct net. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2015-05-04ipv6: Flow label state rangesTom Herbert1-2/+7
This patch divides the IPv6 flow label space into two ranges: 0-7ffff is reserved for flow label manager, 80000-fffff will be used for creating auto flow labels (per RFC6438). This only affects how labels are set on transmit, it does not affect receive. This range split can be disbaled by systcl. Background: IPv6 flow labels have been an unmitigated disappointment thus far in the lifetime of IPv6. Support in HW devices to use them for ECMP is lacking, and OSes don't turn them on by default. If we had these we could get much better hashing in IPv6 networks without resorting to DPI, possibly eliminating some of the motivations to to define new encaps in UDP just for getting ECMP. Unfortunately, the initial specfications of IPv6 did not clarify how they are to be used. There has always been a vague concept that these can be used for ECMP, flow hashing, etc. and we do now have a good standard how to this in RFC6438. The problem is that flow labels can be either stateful or stateless (as in RFC6438), and we are presented with the possibility that a stateless label may collide with a stateful one. Attempts to split the flow label space were rejected in IETF. When we added support in Linux for RFC6438, we could not turn on flow labels by default due to this conflict. This patch splits the flow label space and should give us a path to enabling auto flow labels by default for all IPv6 packets. This is an API change so we need to consider compatibility with existing deployment. The stateful range is chosen to be the lower values in hopes that most uses would have chosen small numbers. Once we resolve the stateless/stateful issue, we can proceed to look at enabling RFC6438 flow labels by default (starting with scaled testing).

2015-04-07netfilter: Pass socket pointer down through okfn().David Miller1-1/+1
On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two socket contexts. First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that generated the frame. And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP. We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting. The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device. We hit code paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4 socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-03-25ipv6: hash net ptr into fragmentation bucket selectionHannes Frederic Sowa1-2/+3
As namespaces are sometimes used with overlapping ip address ranges, we should also use the namespace as input to the hash to select the ip fragmentation counter bucket.

in favor of their inner __ ones, which doesn't grab rtnl. As these functions need to operate on a locked socket, we can't be grabbing rtnl by then. It's too late and doing so causes reversed locking. So this patch: - move rtnl handling to callers instead while already fixing some reversed locking situations, like on vxlan and ipvs code. - renames __ ones to not have the __ mark: __ip_mc_{join,leave}_group -> ip_mc_{join,leave}_group __ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} -> ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} Signed-off-by: Marcelo Ricardo Leitner <marcelo.leitner@gmail.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-02-28igmp v6: add __ipv6_sock_mc_join and __ipv6_sock_mc_dropMadhu Challa1-0/+8
Based on the igmp v4 changes from Eric Dumazet. 959d10f6bbf6("igmp: add __ip_mc_{join|leave}_group()") These changes are needed to perform igmp v6 join/leave while RTNL is held. Make ipv6_sock_mc_join and ipv6_sock_mc_drop wrappers around __ipv6_sock_mc_join and __ipv6_sock_mc_drop to avoid proliferation of work queues.
