Receiving packets while we are cleaning up a network namespace is a racy proposition. It is possible when the packet arrives that we have removed some but not all of the state we need to fully process it. We have the choice of either playing wack-a-mole with the cleanup routines or simply dropping packets when we don't have a network namespace to handle them. Since the check looks inexpensive in netif_receive_skb let's just drop the incoming packets. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-06-13tcp: Revert 'process defer accept as established' changes.David S. Miller2-3/+2
This reverts two changesets, ec3c0982a2dd1e671bad8e9d26c28dcba0039d87 ("[TCP]: TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT updates - process as established") and the follow-on bug fix 9ae27e0adbf471c7a6b80102e38e1d5a346b3b38 ("tcp: Fix slab corruption with ipv6 and tcp6fuzz"). This change causes several problems, first reported by Ingo Molnar as a distcc-over-loopback regression where connections were getting stuck. Ilpo Järvinen first spotted the locking problems. The new function added by this code, tcp_defer_accept_check(), only has the child socket locked, yet it is modifying state of the parent listening socket. Fixing that is non-trivial at best, because we can't simply just grab the parent listening socket lock at this point, because it would create an ABBA deadlock. The normal ordering is parent listening socket --> child socket, but this code path would require the reverse lock ordering. Next is a problem noticed by Vitaliy Gusev, he noted: ---------------------------------------- >--- a/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >+++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_timer.c >@@ -481,6 +481,11 @@ static void tcp_keepalive_timer (unsigned long data) > goto death; > } > >+ if (tp->defer_tcp_accept.request && sk->sk_state == TCP_ESTABLISHED) { >+ tcp_send_active_reset(sk, GFP_ATOMIC); >+ goto death; Here socket sk is not attached to listening socket's request queue. tcp_done() will not call inet_csk_destroy_sock() (and tcp_v4_destroy_sock() which should release this sk) as socket is not DEAD. Therefore socket sk will be lost for freeing. ---------------------------------------- Finally, Alexey Kuznetsov argues that there might not even be any real value or advantage to these new semantics even if we fix all of the bugs: ---------------------------------------- Hiding from accept() sockets with only out-of-order data only is the only thing which is impossible with old approach. Is this really so valuable? My opinion: no, this is nothing but a new loophole to consume memory without control. ---------------------------------------- So revert this thing for now.

2008-05-22netlink: Fix nla_parse_nested_compat() to call nla_parse() directlyThomas Graf1-5/+6
The purpose of nla_parse_nested_compat() is to parse attributes which contain a struct followed by a stream of nested attributes. So far, it called nla_parse_nested() to parse the stream of nested attributes which was wrong, as nla_parse_nested() expects a container attribute as data which holds the attribute stream. It needs to call nla_parse() directly while pointing at the next possible alignment point after the struct in the beginning of the attribute.

This patch restores ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() to use RTNL lock, and provides the non-RTNL version under a new name: ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_atomic() So far only rt2x00 uses ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces(), and those drivers require the RTNL version of ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces().

2008-05-159p: fix error path during early mountEric Van Hensbergen2-1/+1
There was some cleanup issues during early mount which would trigger a kernel bug for certain types of failure. This patch reorganizes the cleanup to get rid of the bad behavior. This also merges the 9pnet and 9pnet_fd modules for the purpose of configuration and initialization. Keeping the fd transport separate from the core 9pnet code seemed like a good idea at the time, but in practice has caused more harm and confusion than good.

2008-04-28Audit: collect sessionid in netlink messagesEric Paris2-11/+13
Previously I added sessionid output to all audit messages where it was available but we still didn't know the sessionid of the sender of netlink messages. This patch adds that information to netlink messages so we can audit who sent netlink messages. Signed-off-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

2008-04-22[IPSEC]: Fix catch-22 with algorithm IDs above 31Herbert Xu1-0/+3
As it stands it's impossible to use any authentication algorithms with an ID above 31 portably. It just happens to work on x86 but fails miserably on ppc64. The reason is that we're using a bit mask to check the algorithm ID but the mask is only 32 bits wide. After looking at how this is used in the field, I have concluded that in the long term we should phase out state matching by IDs because this is made superfluous by the reqid feature. For current applications, the best solution IMHO is to allow all algorithms when the bit masks are all ~0. The following patch does exactly that. This bug was identified by IBM when testing on the ppc64 platform using the NULL authentication algorithm which has an ID of 251.

2008-04-18[INET]: Drop the inet_inherit_port() call.Pavel Emelyanov1-7/+0
As I can see from the code, two places (tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock and dccp_v6_request_recv_sock) that call this one already run with BHs disabled, so it's safe to call __inet_inherit_port there. Besides (in case I missed smth with code review) the calltrace tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock `- tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock `- __inet_inherit_port and the similar for DCCP are valid, but assumes BHs to be disabled.

2008-04-16mac80211: no BSS changes to driver from beacons processed during scanningReinette Chatre1-2/+1
There is no need to send BSS changes to driver from beacons processed during scanning. We are more interested in beacons from an AP with which we are associated - these will still be used to send updates to driver as the beacons are received without scanning. This change·removes the requirement that bss_info_changed needs to be atomic. The beacons received during scanning are processed from a tasklet, but if we do not call bss_info_changed for these beacons there is no need for it to be atomic. This function (bss_info_changed) is called either from workqueue or ioctl in all other instances.

This change is necessary to allow cwnd to grow during persistent reordering. Cwnd moderation is applied when in the disorder state and an ack that fills the hole comes in. If the hole was greater than 3 packets, but less than tp->reordering, cwnd will shrink when it should not have. Signed-off-by: John Heffner <jheffner@napa.(none)> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-04-15[NETNS]: The generic per-net pointers.Pavel Emelyanov2-0/+51
Add the elastic array of void * pointer to the struct net. The access rules are simple: 1. register the ops with register_pernet_gen_device to get the id of your private pointer 2. call net_assign_generic() to put the private data on the struct net (most preferably this should be done in the ->init callback of the ops registered) 3. do not store any private reference on the net_generic array; 4. do not change this pointer while the net is alive; 5. use the net_generic() to get the pointer. When adding a new pointer, I copy the old array, replace it with a new one and schedule the old for kfree after an RCU grace period. Since the net_generic explores the net->gen array inside rcu read section and once set the net->gen->ptr[x] pointer never changes, this grants us a safe access to generic pointers. Quoting Paul: "... RCU is protecting -only- the net_generic structure that net_generic() is traversing, and the [pointer] returned by net_generic() is protected by a reference counter in the upper-level struct net."

2008-04-15[NETNS]: The net-subsys IDs generator.Pavel Emelyanov1-0/+2
To make some per-net generic pointers, we need some way to address them, i.e. - IDs. This is simple IDA-based IDs generator for pernet subsystems. Addressing questions about potential checkpoint/restart problems: these IDs are "lite-offsets" within the net structure and are by no means supposed to be exported to the userspace. Since it will be used in the nearest future by devices only (tun, vlan, tunnels, bridge, etc), I make it resemble the functionality of register_pernet_device(). The new ids is stored in the *id pointer _before_ calling the init callback to make this id available in this callback. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2008-04-15[TIPC]: Overhaul of socket locking logicAllan Stephens1-0/+6
This patch modifies TIPC's socket code to follow the same approach used by other protocols. This change eliminates the need for a mutex in the TIPC-specific portion of the socket protocol data structure -- in its place, the standard Linux socket backlog queue and associated locking routines are utilized. These changes fix a long-standing receive queue bug on SMP systems, and also enable individual read and write threads to utilize a socket without unnecessarily interfering with each other.
