2015-04-01mac80211: fix RX A-MPDU session reorder timer deletionJohannes Berg3-5/+12
There's an issue with the way the RX A-MPDU reorder timer is deleted that can cause a kernel crash like this: * tid_rx is removed - call_rcu(ieee80211_free_tid_rx) * station is destroyed * reorder timer fires before ieee80211_free_tid_rx() runs, accessing the station, thus potentially crashing due to the use-after-free The station deletion is protected by synchronize_net(), but that isn't enough -- ieee80211_free_tid_rx() need not have run when that returns (it deletes the timer.) We could use rcu_barrier() instead of synchronize_net(), but that's much more expensive. Instead, to fix this, add a field tracking that the session is being deleted. In this case, the only re-arming of the timer happens with the reorder spinlock held, so make that code not rearm it if the session is being deleted and also delete the timer after setting that field. This ensures the timer cannot fire after ___ieee80211_stop_rx_ba_session() returns, which fixes the problem. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

2015-03-31openvswitch: Return vport module ref before destructionThomas Graf1-3/+1
Return module reference before invoking the respective vport ->destroy() function. This is needed as ovs_vport_del() is not invoked inside an RCU read side critical section so the kfree can occur immediately before returning to ovs_vport_del(). Returning the module reference before ->destroy() is safe because the module unregistration is blocked on ovs_lock which we hold while destroying the datapath.

2015-03-31sunrpc: make debugfs file creation failure non-fatalJeff Layton4-38/+32
We currently have a problem that SELinux policy is being enforced when creating debugfs files. If a debugfs file is created as a side effect of doing some syscall, then that creation can fail if the SELinux policy for that process prevents it. This seems wrong. We don't do that for files under /proc, for instance, so Bruce has proposed a patch to fix that. While discussing that patch however, Greg K.H. stated: "No kernel code should care / fail if a debugfs function fails, so please fix up the sunrpc code first." This patch converts all of the sunrpc debugfs setup code to be void return functins, and the callers to not look for errors from those functions. This should allow rpc_clnt and rpc_xprt creation to work, even if the kernel fails to create debugfs files for some reason. Symptoms were failing krb5 mounts on systems using gss-proxy and selinux.

2015-03-29net: tcp6: fix double call of tcp_v6_fill_cb()Alexey Kodanev1-0/+11
tcp_v6_fill_cb() will be called twice if socket's state changes from TCP_TIME_WAIT to TCP_LISTEN. That can result in control buffer data corruption because in the second tcp_v6_fill_cb() call it's not copying IP6CB(skb) anymore, but 'seq', 'end_seq', etc., so we can get weird and unpredictable results. Performance loss of up to 1200% has been observed in LTP/vxlan03 test. This can be fixed by copying inet6_skb_parm to the beginning of 'cb' only if xfrm6_policy_check() and tcp_v6_fill_cb() are going to be called again.

2015-03-29netns: don't clear nsid too early on removalNicolas Dichtel1-9/+15
With the current code, ids are removed too early. Suppose you have an ipip interface that stands in the netns foo and its link part in the netns bar (so the netns bar has an nsid into the netns foo). Now, you remove the netns bar: - the bar nsid into the netns foo is removed - the netns exit method of ipip is called, thus our ipip iface is removed: => a netlink message is sent in the netns foo to advertise this deletion => this netlink message requests an nsid for bar, thus a new nsid is allocated for bar and never removed. We must remove nsids when we are sure that nobody will refer to netns currently cleaned.

behaviour Commit db31c55a6fb2 (net: clamp ->msg_namelen instead of returning an error) introduced the clamping of msg_namelen when the unsigned value was larger than sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage). This caused a msg_namelen of -1 to be valid. The native code was subsequently fixed by commit dbb490b96584 (net: socket: error on a negative msg_namelen). In addition, the native code sets msg_namelen to 0 when msg_name is NULL. This was done in commit (6a2a2b3ae075 net:socket: set msg_namelen to 0 if msg_name is passed as NULL in msghdr struct from userland) and subsequently updated by 08adb7dabd48 (fold verify_iovec() into copy_msghdr_from_user()).

2015-03-19netfilter: restore rule tracing via nfnetlink_logPablo Neira Ayuso4-10/+34
Since fab4085 ("netfilter: log: nf_log_packet() as real unified interface"), the loginfo structure that is passed to nf_log_packet() is used to explicitly indicate the logger type you want to use. This is a problem for people tracing rules through nfnetlink_log since packets are always routed to the NF_LOG_TYPE logger after the aforementioned patch. We can fix this by removing the trace loginfo structures, but that still changes the log level from 4 to 5 for tracing messages and there may be someone relying on this outthere. So let's just introduce a new nf_log_trace() function that restores the former behaviour.

2015-03-18act_bpf: allow non-default TC_ACT opcodes as BPF exec outcomeDaniel Borkmann1-8/+28
Revisiting commit d23b8ad8ab23 ("tc: add BPF based action") with regards to eBPF support, I was thinking that it might be better to improve return semantics from a BPF program invoked through BPF_PROG_RUN(). Currently, in case filter_res is 0, we overwrite the default action opcode with TC_ACT_SHOT. A default action opcode configured through tc's m_bpf can be: TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY, TC_ACT_PIPE, TC_ACT_SHOT, TC_ACT_UNSPEC, TC_ACT_OK. In cls_bpf, we have the possibility to overwrite the default class associated with the classifier in case filter_res is _not_ 0xffffffff (-1). That allows us to fold multiple [e]BPF programs into a single one, where they would otherwise need to be defined as a separate classifier with its own classid, needlessly redoing parsing work, etc. Similarly, we could do better in act_bpf: Since above TC_ACT* opcodes are exported to UAPI anyway, we reuse them for return-code-to-tc-opcode mapping, where we would allow above possibilities. Thus, like in cls_bpf, a filter_res of 0xffffffff (-1) means that the configured _default_ action is used. Any unkown return code from the BPF program would fail in tcf_bpf() with TC_ACT_UNSPEC. Should we one day want to make use of TC_ACT_STOLEN or TC_ACT_QUEUED, which both have the same semantics, we have the option to either use that as a default action (filter_res of 0xffffffff) or non-default BPF return code. All that will allow us to transparently use tcf_bpf() for both BPF flavours.

Since moving the interface combination checks to mac80211, it's broken because it now only considers interfaces with an assigned channel context, so for example any interface that isn't active can still be up, which is clearly an issue; also, in particular P2P-Device wdevs are an issue since they never have a chanctx.

nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple() is called from nfnl_cthelper_new(), nfnl_cthelper_get() and nfnl_cthelper_del(). In each case they pass a pointer to an nf_conntrack_tuple data structure local variable: struct nf_conntrack_tuple tuple; ... ret = nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple(&tuple, tb[NFCTH_TUPLE]); The problem is that this local variable is not initialized, and nfnl_cthelper_parse_tuple() only initializes two fields: src.l3num and dst.protonum. This leaves all other fields with undefined values based on whatever is on the stack: tuple->src.l3num = ntohs(nla_get_be16(tb[NFCTH_TUPLE_L3PROTONUM])); tuple->dst.protonum = nla_get_u8(tb[NFCTH_TUPLE_L4PROTONUM]); The symptom observed was that when the rpc and tns helpers were added then traffic to port 1536 was being sent to user-space.

Instead of passing an rds socket into rds_iw_get_device, we now just pass the two addresses that we have available in rds_iw_update_cm_id, and we change rds_iw_get_mr accordingly, to create two address structures on the stack there.

For example, set them as follows: # sysctl net.core.rmem_default=64 net.core.wmem_default = 64 # sysctl net.core.wmem_default=64 net.core.wmem_default = 64 # ping localhost -s 1024 -i 0 > /dev/null This could result to the following failure: skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff81628db4 len:-32 put:-32 head:ffff88003a1cc200 data:ffff88003a1cc200 tail:0xffffffe0 end:0xc0 dev:<NULL> kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:102! invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP ... task: ffff88003b7f5550 ti: ffff88003ae88000 task.ti: ffff88003ae88000 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8155fbd1>] [<ffffffff8155fbd1>] skb_put+0xa1/0xb0 RSP: 0018:ffff88003ae8bc68 EFLAGS: 00010296 RAX: 000000000000008d RBX: 00000000ffffffe0 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: ffff88003fdcf598 RSI: ffff88003fdcd9c8 RDI: ffff88003fdcd9c8 RBP: ffff88003ae8bc88 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 00000000000002b2 R12: 0000000000000000 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: ffff88003d3f7300 R15: ffff88000012a900 FS: 00007fa0e2b4a840(0000) GS:ffff88003fc00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000d0f7e0 CR3: 000000003b8fb000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 Stack: ffff88003a1cc200 00000000ffffffe0 00000000000000c0 ffffffff818cab1d ffff88003ae8bd68 ffffffff81628db4 ffff88003ae8bd48 ffff88003b7f5550 ffff880031a09408 ffff88003b7f5550 ffff88000012aa48 ffff88000012ab00 Call Trace: [<ffffffff81628db4>] unix_stream_sendmsg+0x2c4/0x470 [<ffffffff81556f56>] sock_write_iter+0x146/0x160 [<ffffffff811d9612>] new_sync_write+0x92/0xd0 [<ffffffff811d9cd6>] vfs_write+0xd6/0x180 [<ffffffff811da499>] SyS_write+0x59/0xd0 [<ffffffff81651532>] system_call_fastpath+0x12/0x17 Code: 00 00 48 89 44 24 10 8b 87 c8 00 00 00 48 89 44 24 08 48 8b 87 d8 00 00 00 48 c7 c7 30 db 91 81 48 89 04 24 31 c0 e8 4f a8 0e 00 <0f> 0b eb fe 66 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 55 48 89 e5 48 83 RIP [<ffffffff8155fbd1>] skb_put+0xa1/0xb0 RSP <ffff88003ae8bc68> Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception Moreover, the possible minimum is 1, so we can get another kernel panic: ...

2015-03-11tcp: restore 1.5x per RTT limit to CUBIC cwnd growth in congestion avoidanceNeal Cardwell1-2/+4
Commit 814d488c6126 ("tcp: fix the timid additive increase on stretch ACKs") fixed a bug where tcp_cong_avoid_ai() would either credit a connection with an increase of snd_cwnd_cnt, or increase snd_cwnd, but not both, resulting in cwnd increasing by 1 packet on at most every alternate invocation of tcp_cong_avoid_ai(). Although the commit correctly implemented the CUBIC algorithm, which can increase cwnd by as much as 1 packet per 1 packet ACKed (2x per RTT), in practice that could be too aggressive: in tests on network paths with small buffers, YouTube server retransmission rates nearly doubled. This commit restores CUBIC to a maximum cwnd growth rate of 1 packet per 2 packets ACKed (1.5x per RTT). In YouTube tests this restored retransmit rates to low levels. Testing: This patch has been tested in datacenter netperf transfers and live youtube.com and google.com servers.

2015-03-11tcp: fix tcp_cong_avoid_ai() credit accumulation bug with decreases in wNeal Cardwell1-0/+6
The recent change to tcp_cong_avoid_ai() to handle stretch ACKs introduced a bug where snd_cwnd_cnt could accumulate a very large value while w was large, and then if w was reduced snd_cwnd could be incremented by a large delta, leading to a large burst and high packet loss. This was tickled when CUBIC's bictcp_update() sets "ca->cnt = 100 * cwnd". This bug crept in while preparing the upstream version of 814d488c6126.

2015-03-11net: Handle unregister properly when netdev namespace change fails.David S. Miller1-13/+13
If rtnl_newlink() fails on it's call to dev_change_net_namespace(), we have to make use of the ->dellink() method, if present, just like we do when rtnl_configure_link() fails.
