2013-09-16ipsec: Don't update the pmtu on ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACHSteffen Klassert1-2/+1
Currently we update the pmtu in the IPsec protocol error handlers if icmpv6 message type is either ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH or ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG. Updating the pmtu on ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH is wrong in any case, it causes strangely fragmented packets. Only ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG signalizes pmtu discovery, so remove the ICMPV6_DEST_UNREACH check in the IPsec protocol error handlers. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>
2013-09-05ipv6:introduce function to find route for redirectDuan Jiong1-1/+1
RFC 4861 says that the IP source address of the Redirect is the same as the current first-hop router for the specified ICMP Destination Address, so the gateway should be taken into consideration when we find the route for redirect. There was once a check in commit a6279458c534d01ccc39498aba61c93083ee0372 ("NDISC: Search over all possible rules on receipt of redirect.") and the check went away in commit b94f1c0904da9b8bf031667afc48080ba7c3e8c9 ("ipv6: Use icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, instead of rt6_redirect()"). The bug is only "exploitable" on layer-2 because the source address of the redirect is checked to be a valid link-local address but it makes spoofing a lot easier in the same L2 domain nonetheless.

2013-01-08ah6/esp6: set transport header correctly for IPsec tunnel mode.Li RongQing1-2/+9
IPsec tunnel does not set ECN field to CE in inner header when the ECN field in the outer header is CE, and the ECN field in the inner header is ECT(0) or ECT(1). The cause is ipip6_hdr() does not return the correct address of inner header since skb->transport-header is not the inner header after esp6_input_done2(), or ah6_input().

2012-06-16ipv6: Handle PMTU in ICMP error handlers.David S. Miller1-1/+2
One tricky issue on the ipv6 side vs. ipv4 is that the ICMP callouts to handle the error pass the 32-bit info cookie in network byte order whereas ipv4 passes it around in host byte order. Like the ipv4 side, we have two helper functions. One for when we have a socket context and one for when we do not. ip6ip6 tunnels are not handled here, because they handle PMTU events by essentially relaying another ICMP packet-too-big message back to the original sender. This patch allows us to get rid of rt6_do_pmtu_disc(). It handles all kinds of situations that simply cannot happen when we do the PMTU update directly using a fully resolved route. In fact, the "plen == 128" check in ip6_rt_update_pmtu() can very likely be removed or changed into a BUG_ON() check. We should never have a prefixed ipv6 route when we get there. Another piece of strange history here is that TCP and DCCP, unlike in ipv4, never invoke the update_pmtu() method from their ICMP error handlers. This is incredibly astonishing since this is the context where we have the most accurate context in which to make a PMTU update, namely we have a fully connected socket and associated cached socket route.

2011-11-13ah: Don't return NET_XMIT_DROP on input.Nick Bowler1-2/+0
When the ahash driver returns -EBUSY, AH4/6 input functions return NET_XMIT_DROP, presumably copied from the output code path. But returning transmit codes on input doesn't make a lot of sense. Since NET_XMIT_DROP is a positive int, this gets interpreted as the next header type (i.e., success). As that can only end badly, remove the check.

2011-11-10ah: Read nexthdr value before overwriting it in ahash input callback.Nick Bowler1-2/+2

2011-11-10ah: Correctly pass error codes in ahash output callback.Nick Bowler1-2/+0
The AH4/6 ahash output callbacks pass nexthdr to xfrm_output_resume instead of the error code. This appears to be a copy+paste error from the input case, where nexthdr is expected. This causes the driver to continuously add AH headers to the datagram until either an allocation fails and the packet is dropped or the ahash driver hits a synchronous fallback and the resulting monstrosity is transmitted. Correct this issue by simply passing the error code unadulterated. Signed-off-by: Nick Bowler <nbowler@elliptictech.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2007-10-11[IPSEC]: Store IPv6 nh pointer in mac_header on outputHerbert Xu1-3/+3
Current the x->mode->output functions store the IPv6 nh pointer in the skb network header. This is inconvenient because the network header then has to be fixed up before the packet can leave the IPsec stack. The mac header field is unused on output so we can use that to store this instead. This patch does that and removes the network header fix-up in xfrm_output. It also uses ipv6_hdr where appropriate in the x->type->output functions. There is also a minor clean-up in esp4 to make it use the same code as esp6 to help any subsequent effort to merge the two. Lastly it kills two redundant skb_set_* statements in BEET that were simply copied over from transport mode. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.
