ipv6: add complete rcu protection around np->opt

2015-12-14T17:19:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 45f6fad84cc305103b28d73482b344d7f5b76f39 ] This patch addresses multiple problems : UDP/RAW sendmsg() need to get a stable struct ipv6_txoptions while socket is not locked : Other threads can change np->opt concurrently. Dmitry posted a syzkaller (http://github.com/google/syzkaller) program desmonstrating use-after-free. Starting with TCP/DCCP lockless listeners, tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() and dccp_v6_request_recv_sock() also need to use RCU protection to dereference np->opt once (before calling ipv6_dup_options()) This patch adds full RCU protection to np->opt Reported-by: Dmitry Vyukov Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv6: distinguish frag queues by device for multicast and link-local packets

2015-12-14T17:19:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 264640fc2c5f4f913db5c73fa3eb1ead2c45e9d7 ] 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. Note: similar patch has been already submitted by Yoshifuji Hideaki in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/220979/ but got lost and forgotten for some reason.

drivers/net, ipv6: Select IPv6 fragment idents for virtio UFO packets

2014-10-31T00:01:18+00:00

UFO is now disabled on all drivers that work with virtio net headers, but userland may try to send UFO/IPv6 packets anyway. Instead of sending with ID=0, we should select identifiers on their behalf (as we used to).

ipv6: add a struct inet6_skb_parm param to ipv6_opt_accepted()

2014-09-28T20:35:43+00:00

ipv6_opt_accepted() assumes IP6CB(skb) holds the struct inet6_skb_parm that it needs. Lets not assume this, as TCP stack might use a different place. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ipv6: add sysctl_mld_qrv to configure query robustness variable

2014-09-05T05:26:14+00:00

This patch adds a new sysctl_mld_qrv knob to configure the mldv1/v2 query robustness variable. It specifies how many retransmit of unsolicited mld retransmit should happen. Admins might want to tune this on lossy links. Also reset mld state on interface down/up, so we pick up new sysctl settings during interface up event. IPv6 certification requests this knob to be available. I didn't make this knob netns specific, as it is mostly a setting in a physical environment and should be per host.

inet: frag: don't account number of fragment queues

2014-07-28T05:34:36+00:00

The 'nqueues' counter is protected by the lru list lock, once thats removed this needs to be converted to atomic counter. Given this isn't used for anything except for reporting it to userspace via /proc, just remove it. We still report the memory currently used by fragment reassembly queues.

net: clean up some sparse endianness warnings in ipv6.h

2014-07-17T06:31:38+00:00

sparse is throwing warnings when building sunrpc modules due to some endianness shenanigans in ipv6.h. Specifically: CHECK net/sunrpc/addr.c include/net/ipv6.h:573:17: warning: restricted __be64 degrades to integer include/net/ipv6.h:577:34: warning: restricted __be32 degrades to integer include/net/ipv6.h:573:17: warning: restricted __be64 degrades to integer include/net/ipv6.h:577:34: warning: restricted __be32 degrades to integer Sprinkle some endianness fixups to silence them. These should all get fixed up at compile time, so I don't think this will add any extra work to be done at runtime. Signed-off-by: Jeff Layton Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: provide stubs for ip6_set_txhash and ip6_make_flowlabel

2014-07-09T03:43:35+00:00

Commit cb1ce2ef387b ("ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit") introduced ip6_make_flowlabel, while commit b73c3d0e4f0e ("net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit") introduced ip6_set_txhash. ip6_set_tx_hash() uses sk_v6_daddr which references __sk_common.skc_v6_daddr from struct sock_common, which is gated with IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6). ip6_make_flowlabel() uses the ipv6 member from struct net which is also gated with IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6). When CONFIG_IPV6 is disabled, we will hit a build failure that looks like this when the compiler attempts inlining these functions: CC [M] drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnx2x/bnx2x_main.o In file included from include/net/inet_sock.h:27:0, from include/net/ip.h:30, from drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/cnic.c:37: include/net/ipv6.h: In function 'ip6_set_txhash': include/net/sock.h:327:33: error: 'struct sock_common' has no member named 'skc_v6_daddr' #define sk_v6_daddr __sk_common.skc_v6_daddr ^ include/net/ipv6.h:696:49: note: in expansion of macro 'sk_v6_daddr' keys.dst = (__force __be32)ipv6_addr_hash(&sk->sk_v6_daddr); ^ In file included from include/net/inetpeer.h:15:0, from include/net/route.h:28, from include/net/ip.h:31, from drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/cnic.c:37: include/net/ipv6.h: In function 'ip6_make_flowlabel': include/net/ipv6.h:706:37: error: 'struct net' has no member named 'ipv6' if (!flowlabel && (autolabel || net->ipv6.sysctl.auto_flowlabels)) { ^ Fixes: cb1ce2ef387b ("ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit") Fixes: b73c3d0e4f0e ("net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit") Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit

2014-07-08T04:14:21+00:00

Automatically generate flow labels for IPv6 packets on transmit. The flow label is computed based on skb_get_hash. The flow label will only automatically be set when it is zero otherwise (i.e. flow label manager hasn't set one). This supports the transmit side functionality of RFC 6438. Added an IPv6 sysctl auto_flowlabels to enable/disable this behavior system wide, and added IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL socket option to enable this functionality per socket. By default, auto flowlabels are disabled to avoid possible conflicts with flow label manager, however if this feature proves useful we may want to enable it by default. It should also be noted that FreeBSD has already implemented automatic flow labels (including the sysctl and socket option). In FreeBSD, automatic flow labels default to enabled. Performance impact: Running super_netperf with 200 flows for TCP_RR and UDP_RR for IPv6. Note that in UDP case, __skb_get_hash will be called for every packet with explains slight regression. In the TCP case the hash is saved in the socket so there is no regression.
