- Don't trust a length which is greater than the working buffer.
An invalid length could cause overflow when calculating buffer size
for decoding oid.
- An oid length of zero is invalid and allows for an off-by-one error when
decoding oid because the first subid actually encodes first 2 subids.
- A primitive encoding may not have an indefinite length.
Thanks to Wei Wang from McAfee for report.

Upstream commit: 607bfbf2d55dd1cfe5368b41c2a81a8c9ccf4723
When selecting a new window, tcp_select_window() tries not to shrink
the offered window by using the maximum of the remaining offered window
size and the newly calculated window size. The newly calculated window
size is always a multiple of the window scaling factor, the remaining
window size however might not be since it depends on rcv_wup/rcv_nxt.
This means we're effectively shrinking the window when scaling it down.
The dump below shows the problem (scaling factor 2^7):
- Window size of 557 (71296) is advertised, up to 3111907257:
IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . ack 3111835961 win 557 <...>
- New window size of 514 (65792) is advertised, up to 3111907217, 40 bytes
below the last end:
IP 172.2.2.3.33000 > 172.2.2.2.33000: . 3113575668:3113577116(1448) ack 3111841425 win 514 <...>
The number 40 results from downscaling the remaining window:
3111907257 - 3111841425 = 65832
65832 / 2^7 = 514
65832 % 2^7 = 40
If the sender uses up the entire window before it is shrunk, this can have
chaotic effects on the connection. When sending ACKs, tcp_acceptable_seq()
will notice that the window has been shrunk since tcp_wnd_end() is before
tp->snd_nxt, which makes it choose tcp_wnd_end() as sequence number.
This will fail the receivers checks in tcp_sequence() however since it
is before it's tp->rcv_wup, making it respond with a dupack.
If both sides are in this condition, this leads to a constant flood of
ACKs until the connection times out.
Make sure the window is never shrunk by aligning the remaining window to
the window scaling factor.

[ Upstream commit: 44344b2a85f03326c7047a8c861b0c625c674839 ]
When re-naming an interface, the previous secondary address
labels get lost e.g.
$> brctl addbr foo
$> ip addr add 192.168.0.1 dev foo
$> ip addr add 192.168.0.2 dev foo label foo:00
$> ip addr show dev foo | grep inet
inet 192.168.0.1/32 scope global foo
inet 192.168.0.2/32 scope global foo:00
$> ip link set foo name bar
$> ip addr show dev bar | grep inet
inet 192.168.0.1/32 scope global bar
inet 192.168.0.2/32 scope global bar:2
Turns out to be a simple thinko in inetdev_changename() - clearly we
want to look at the address label, rather than the device name, for
a suffix to retain.

We currently check that iph->ihl is bounded by the real length and that
the real length is greater than the minimum IP header length. However,
we did not check the caes where iph->ihl is less than the minimum IP
header length.
This breaks because some ip_fast_csum implementations assume that which
is quite reasonable.

in the CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=n and (CONFIG_NETDEV_1000=y or

Since they are not required this patch removes them.

Currently when icmp_errors_use_inbound_ifaddr is set and an ICMP error is
sent after the packet passed through ip_output(), an address from the
outgoing interface is chosen as ICMP source address since skb->dev doesn't
point to the incoming interface anymore.
Fix this by doing an interface lookup on rt->dst.iif and using that device.

When only GSO skb was partially ACKed, no hints are reset,
therefore fastpath_cnt_hint must be tweaked too or else it can
corrupt fackets_out. The corruption to occur, one must have
non-trivial ACK/SACK sequence, so this bug is not very often
that harmful. There's a fackets_out state reset in TCP because
fackets_out is known to be inaccurate and that fixes the issue
eventually anyway.
In case there was also at least one skb that got fully ACKed,
the fastpath_skb_hint is set to NULL which causes a recount for
fastpath_cnt_hint (the old value won't be accessed anymore),
thus it can safely be decremented without additional checking.

In testing our ESP/AH offload hardware, I discovered an issue with how
AH handles mutable fields in IPv4. RFC 4302 (AH) states the following
on the subject:
For IPv4, the entire option is viewed as a unit; so even
though the type and length fields within most options are immutable
in transit, if an option is classified as mutable, the entire option
is zeroed for ICV computation purposes.
The current implementation does not zero the type and length fields,
resulting in authentication failures when communicating with hosts
that do (i.e. FreeBSD).
I have tested record route and timestamp options (ping -R and ping -T)
on a small network involving Windows XP, FreeBSD 6.2, and Linux hosts,
with one router. In the presence of these options, the FreeBSD and
Linux hosts (with the patch or with the hardware) can communicate.
The Windows XP host simply fails to accept these packets with or
without the patch.
I have also been trying to test source routing options (using
traceroute -g), but haven't had much luck getting this option to work
*without* AH, let alone with.

It's possible that new SACK blocks that should trigger new LOST
markings arrive with new data (which previously made is_dupack
false). In addition, I think this fixes a case where we get
a cumulative ACK with enough SACK blocks to trigger the fast
recovery (is_dupack would be false there too).
I'm not completely pleased with this solution because readability
of the code is somewhat questionable as 'is_dupack' in SACK case
is no longer about dupacks only but would mean something like
'lost_marker_work_todo' too... But because of Eifel stuff done
in CA_Recovery, the FLAG_DATA_SACKED check cannot be placed to
the if statement which seems attractive solution. Nevertheless,
I didn't like adding another variable just for that either... :-)

The conntrack assigned to locally generated ICMP error is usually the one
assigned to the original packet which has caused the error. But if
the original packet is handled as invalid by nf_conntrack, no conntrack
is assigned to the original packet. Then nf_ct_attach() cannot assign
any conntrack to the ICMP error packet. In that case the current
nf_conntrack_icmp assigns appropriate conntrack to it. But the current
code mistakes the direction of the packet. As a result, NAT code mistakes
the address to be mangled.
To fix the bug, this changes nf_conntrack_icmp not to assign conntrack
to such ICMP error. Actually no address is necessary to be mangled
in this case.

This diff changes the default port range used for outgoing connections,
from "use 32768-61000 in most cases, but use N-4999 on small boxes
(where N is a multiple of 1024, depending on just *how* small the box
is)" to just "use 32768-61000 in all cases".
I don't believe there are any drawbacks to this change, and it keeps

When the server drops its connection, NFS client reconnects using the
same socket after disconnecting. If the new connection's SYN,ACK
doesn't contain the TCP timestamp option and the old connection's did,
tp->tcp_header_len is recomputed assuming no timestamp header but
tp->rx_opt.tstamp_ok remains set. Then tcp_build_and_update_options()
adds in a timestamp option past the end of the allocated TCP header,
overwriting TCP data, or when the data is in skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[],
overwriting skb_shinfo(skb) causing a crash soon after. (The issue was
debugged from such a crash.)
Similarly, wscale_ok and sack_ok also get set based on the SYN,ACK
packet but not reset on disconnect, since they are zeroed out at
initialization. The patch zeroes out the entire tp->rx_opt struct in
tcp_disconnect() to avoid this sort of problem.

While porting some changes of the 2.6.21-rc7 pptp/proto_gre conntrack
and nat modules to a 2.4.32 kernel I noticed that the gre_key function
returns a wrong pointer to the GRE key of a version 0 packet thus
corrupting the packet payload.
The intended behaviour for GREv0 packets is to act like
ip_conntrack_proto_generic/ip_nat_proto_unknown so I have ripped the
offending functions (not used anymore) and modified the
ip_nat_proto_gre modules to not touch version 0 (non PPTP) packets.

Reply to NETLINK_FIB_LOOKUP messages were misrouted back to kernel,
which resulted in infinite recursion and stack overflow.
The bug is present in all kernel versions since the feature appeared.
The patch also makes some minimal cleanup:
1. Return something consistent (-ENOENT) when fib table is missing
2. Do not crash when queue is empty (does not happen, but yet)
3. Put result of lookup

Doug Leith observed a discrepancy between the version of CUBIC described
in the papers and the version in 2.6.18. A math error related to scaling
causes Cubic to grow too slowly.
Patch is from "Sangtae Ha" <sha2@ncsu.edu>. I validated that
it does fix the problems.

Hello, Just discussed this Patrick...
We have two users of trie_leaf_remove, fn_trie_flush and fn_trie_delete
both are holding RTNL. So there shouldn't be need for this preempt stuff.
This is assumed to a leftover from an older RCU-take.

TCP may advertize up to 16-bits window in SYN packets (no window
scaling allowed). At the same time, TCP may have rcv_wnd
(32-bits) that does not fit to 16-bits without window scaling
resulting in pseudo garbage into advertized window from the
low-order bits of rcv_wnd. This can happen at least when
mss <= (1<<wscale) (see tcp_select_initial_window). This patch
fixes the handling of SYN advertized windows (compile tested
only).
In worst case (which is unlikely to occur though), the receiver
advertized window could be just couple of bytes. I'm not sure
that such situation would be handled very well at all by the
receiver!? Fortunately, the situation normalizes after the
first non-SYN ACK is received because it has the correct,
scaled window.
Alternatively, tcp_select_initial_window could be changed to
prevent too large rcv_wnd in the first place.
[ tcp_make_synack() has the same bug, and I've added a fix for
that to this patch -DaveM ]

Some of the instances of tcp_sack_block are host-endian, some - net-endian.
Define struct tcp_sack_block_wire identical to struct tcp_sack_block
with u32 replaced with __be32; annotate uses of tcp_sack_block replacing
net-endian ones with tcp_sack_block_wire. Change is obviously safe since
for cc(1) __be32 is typedefed to u32.

I encountered a kernel panic with my test program, which is a very
simple IPv6 client-server program.
The server side sets IPV6_RECVPKTINFO on a listening socket, and the
client side just sends a message to the server. Then the kernel panic
occurs on the server. (If you need the test program, please let me
know. I can provide it.)
This problem happens because a skb is forcibly freed in
tcp_rcv_state_process().
When a socket in listening state(TCP_LISTEN) receives a syn packet,
then tcp_v6_conn_request() will be called from
tcp_rcv_state_process(). If the tcp_v6_conn_request() successfully
returns, the skb would be discarded by __kfree_skb().
However, in case of a listening socket which was already set
IPV6_RECVPKTINFO, an address of the skb will be stored in
treq->pktopts and a ref count of the skb will be incremented in
tcp_v6_conn_request(). But, even if the skb is still in use, the skb
will be freed. Then someone still using the freed skb will cause the
kernel panic.
I suggest to use kfree_skb() instead of __kfree_skb().

The sorting of SACK blocks actually munges them rather than sort,
causing the TCP stack to ignore some SACK information and breaking the
assumption of ordered SACK blocks after sorting.
The sort takes the data from a second buffer which isn't moved causing
subsequent data moves to occur from the wrong location. The fix is to
use a temporary buffer as a normal sort does.

The whole idea with the NOTRACK netfilter target is that
you can force the netfilter code to avoid connection
tracking, and all costs assosciated with it, by making
traffic match a NOTRACK rule.
But this is totally broken by the fact that we do a checksum
calculation over the packet before we do the NOTRACK bypass
check, which is very expensive. People setup NOTRACK rules
explicitly to avoid all of these kinds of costs.
This patch from Patrick, already in Linus's tree, fixes the
bug.
Move the check for ip_conntrack_untracked before the call to
skb_checksum_help to fix NOTRACK excemptions from NAT. Pre-2.6.19
NAT code breaks TSO by invalidating hardware checksums for every
packet, even if explicitly excluded from NAT through NOTRACK.
2.6.19 includes a fix that makes NAT and TSO live in harmony,
but the performance degradation caused by this deserves making
at least the workaround work properly in -stable.

Currently the behaviour of disable_xfrm is inconsistent between
locally generated and forwarded packets. For locally generated
packets disable_xfrm disables the policy lookup if it is set on
the output device, for forwarded traffic however it looks at the
input device. This makes it impossible to disable xfrm on all
devices but a dummy device and use normal routing to direct
traffic to that device.
Always use the output device when checking disable_xfrm.

sbi->s_group_desc is an array of pointers to buffer_head. memcpy() of
buffer size from address of buffer_head is a bad idea - it will generate
junk in any case, may oops if buffer_head is close to the end of slab
page and next page is not mapped and isn't what was intended there.
IOW, ->b_data is missing in that call. Fortunately, result doesn't go
into the primary on-disk data structures, so only backup ones get crap
written to them; that had allowed this bug to remain unnoticed until

Make udp_encap_rcv use pskb_may_pull
IPsec with NAT-T breaks on some notebooks using the latest e1000 chipset,
when header split is enabled. When receiving sufficiently large packets, the
driver puts everything up to and including the UDP header into the header
portion of the skb, and the rest goes into the paged part. udp_encap_rcv
forgets to use pskb_may_pull, and fails to decapsulate it. Instead, it
passes it up it to the IKE daemon.

During OpenVZ stress testing we found that UDP traffic with random src
can generate too much excessive rt hash growing leading finally to OOM
and kernel panics.
It was found that for 4GB i686 system (having 1048576 total pages and
225280 normal zone pages) kernel allocates the following route hash:
syslog: IP route cache hash table entries: 262144 (order: 8, 1048576
bytes) => ip_rt_max_size = 4194304 entries, i.e. max rt size is
4194304 * 256b = 1Gb of RAM > normal_zone
