xfrm: add extack to xfrm_init_state

2026-06-04T10:22:35+00:00

Add a struct extack parameter to xfrm_init_state() and pass it through to __xfrm_init_state(). This allows validation errors detected during state initialization to propagate meaningful error messages back to userspace. xfrm_state_migrate() now passes extack so that errors from the XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE_STATE path are properly reported. Callers without an extack context (af_key, ipcomp4, ipcomp6) pass NULL, preserving their existing behaviour. Reviewed-by: Sabrina Dubroca Signed-off-by: Antony Antony Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert

xfrm: delete x->tunnel as we delete x

2025-07-08T11:28:27+00:00

The ipcomp fallback tunnels currently get deleted (from the various lists and hashtables) as the last user state that needed that fallback is destroyed (not deleted). If a reference to that user state still exists, the fallback state will remain on the hashtables/lists, triggering the WARN in xfrm_state_fini. Because of those remaining references, the fix in commit f75a2804da39 ("xfrm: destroy xfrm_state synchronously on net exit path") is not complete. We recently fixed one such situation in TCP due to defered freeing of skbs (commit 9b6412e6979f ("tcp: drop secpath at the same time as we currently drop dst")). This can also happen due to IP reassembly: skbs with a secpath remain on the reassembly queue until netns destruction. If we can't guarantee that the queues are flushed by the time xfrm_state_fini runs, there may still be references to a (user) xfrm_state, preventing the timely deletion of the corresponding fallback state. Instead of chasing each instance of skbs holding a secpath one by one, this patch fixes the issue directly within xfrm, by deleting the fallback state as soon as the last user state depending on it has been deleted. Destruction will still happen when the final reference is dropped. A separate lockdep class for the fallback state is required since we're going to lock x->tunnel while x is locked.

xfrm: remove hdr_offset indirection

2021-06-11T12:48:50+00:00

After previous patches all remaining users set the function pointer to the same function: xfrm6_find_1stfragopt. So remove this function pointer and call ip6_find_1stfragopt directly. Reduces size of xfrm_type to 64 bytes on 64bit platforms. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert

xfrm: remove description from xfrm_type struct

ipcomp: assign if_id to child tunnel from parent tunnel

xfrm: add support for UDPv6 encapsulation of ESP

2020-04-28T09:28:36+00:00

This patch adds support for encapsulation of ESP over UDPv6. The code is very similar to the IPv4 encapsulation implementation, and allows to easily add espintcp on IPv6 as a follow-up. Signed-off-by: Sabrina Dubroca Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert

xfrm: remove type and offload_type map from xfrm_state_afinfo

2019-06-06T06:34:50+00:00

Only a handful of xfrm_types exist, no need to have 512 pointers for them. Reduces size of afinfo struct from 4k to 120 bytes on 64bit platforms. Also, the unregister function doesn't need to return an error, no single caller does anything useful with it. Just place a WARN_ON() where needed instead.
