ipv6: fix sparse warning on rt6i_node

2017-09-20T06:19:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit 4e587ea71bf924f7dac621f1351653bd41e446cb ]

Commit c5cff8561d2d adds rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node. This
generates a new sparse warning on rt->rt6i_node related code:
  net/ipv6/route.c:1394:30: error: incompatible types in comparison
  expression (different address spaces)
  ./include/net/ip6_fib.h:187:14: error: incompatible types in comparison
  expression (different address spaces)

This commit adds "__rcu" tag for rt6i_node and makes sure corresponding
rcu API is used for it.
After this fix, sparse no longer generates the above warning.

ipv6: add rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node

2017-09-20T06:19:53+00:00

[ Upstream commit c5cff8561d2d0006e972bd114afd51f082fee77c ]

We currently keep rt->rt6i_node pointing to the fib6_node for the route.
And some functions make use of this pointer to dereference the fib6_node
from rt structure, e.g. rt6_check(). However, as there is neither
refcount nor rcu taken when dereferencing rt->rt6i_node, it could
potentially cause crashes as rt->rt6i_node could be set to NULL by other
CPUs when doing a route deletion.
This patch introduces an rcu grace period before freeing fib6_node and
makes sure the functions that dereference it takes rcu_read_lock().

Note: there is no "Fixes" tag because this bug was there in a very
early stage.

net: ipv6: Fix processing of RAs in presence of VRF

2016-10-27T20:30:52+00:00

rt6_add_route_info and rt6_add_dflt_router were updated to pull the FIB
table from the device index, but the corresponding rt6_get_route_info
and rt6_get_dflt_router functions were not leading to the failure to
process RA's:

    ICMPv6: RA: ndisc_router_discovery failed to add default route

Fix the 'get' functions by using the table id associated with the
device when applicable.

Also, now that default routes can be added to tables other than the
default table, rt6_purge_dflt_routers needs to be updated as well to
look at all tables. To handle that efficiently, add a flag to the table
denoting if it is has a default route via RA.

ipv6: Check rt->dst.from for the DST_NOCACHE route

2015-11-15T22:12:37+00:00

All DST_NOCACHE rt6_info used to have rt->dst.from set to
its parent.

After commit 8e3d5be73681 ("ipv6: Avoid double dst_free"),
DST_NOCACHE is also set to rt6_info which does not have
a parent (i.e. rt->dst.from is NULL).

This patch catches the rt->dst.from == NULL case.

ipv6: include NLM_F_REPLACE in route replace notifications

2015-09-17T22:00:27+00:00

This patch adds NLM_F_REPLACE flag to ipv6 route replace notifications.
This makes nlm_flags in ipv6 replace notifications consistent
with ipv4.

route: move lwtunnel state to dst_entry

2015-08-20T22:42:36+00:00

Currently, the lwtunnel state resides in per-protocol data. This is
a problem if we encapsulate ipv6 traffic in an ipv4 tunnel (or vice versa).
The xmit function of the tunnel does not know whether the packet has been
routed to it by ipv4 or ipv6, yet it needs the lwtstate data. Moving the
lwtstate data to dst_entry makes such inter-protocol tunneling possible.

As a bonus, this brings a nice diffstat.
