rtnetlink: add the missing IFLA_GRO_ tb check in validate_linkmsg

2023-06-09T08:47:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 65d6914e253f3d83b724a9bbfc889ae95711e512 ]

This fixes the issue that dev gro_max_size and gso_ipv4_max_size
can be set to a huge value:

  # ip link add dummy1 type dummy
  # ip link set dummy1 gro_max_size 4294967295
  # ip -d link show dummy1
    dummy addrgenmode eui64 ... gro_max_size 4294967295

rtnetlink: call validate_linkmsg in rtnl_create_link

2023-06-09T08:47:56+00:00

[ Upstream commit b0ad3c179059089d809b477a1d445c1183a7b8fe ]

validate_linkmsg() was introduced by commit 1840bb13c22f5b ("[RTNL]:
Validate hardware and broadcast address attribute for RTM_NEWLINK")
to validate tb[IFLA_ADDRESS/BROADCAST] for existing links. The same
check should also be done for newly created links.

This patch adds validate_linkmsg() call in rtnl_create_link(), to
avoid the invalid address set when creating some devices like:

  # ip link add dummy0 type dummy
  # ip link add link dummy0 name mac0 address 01:02 type macsec

rtnetlink: Restore RTM_NEW/DELLINK notification behavior

2023-04-13T03:47:58+00:00

The commits referenced below allows userspace to use the NLM_F_ECHO flag
for RTM_NEW/DELLINK operations to receive unicast notifications for the
affected link. Prior to these changes, applications may have relied on
multicast notifications to learn the same information without specifying
the NLM_F_ECHO flag.

For such applications, the mentioned commits changed the behavior for
requests not using NLM_F_ECHO. Multicast notifications are still received,
but now use the portid of the requester and the sequence number of the
request instead of zero values used previously. For the application, this
message may be unexpected and likely handled as a response to the
NLM_F_ACKed request, especially if it uses the same socket to handle
requests and notifications.

To fix existing applications relying on the old notification behavior,
set the portid and sequence number in the notification only if the
request included the NLM_F_ECHO flag. This restores the old behavior
for applications not using it, but allows unicasted notifications for
others.

net: bridge: Add netlink knobs for number / maximum MDB entries

2023-02-06T08:48:26+00:00

The previous patch added accounting for number of MDB entries per port and
per port-VLAN, and the logic to verify that these values stay within
configured bounds. However it didn't provide means to actually configure
those bounds or read the occupancy. This patch does that.

Two new netlink attributes are added for the MDB occupancy:
IFLA_BRPORT_MCAST_N_GROUPS for the per-port occupancy and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_N_GROUPS for the per-port-VLAN occupancy.
And another two for the maximum number of MDB entries:
IFLA_BRPORT_MCAST_MAX_GROUPS for the per-port maximum, and
BRIDGE_VLANDB_ENTRY_MCAST_MAX_GROUPS for the per-port-VLAN one.

Note that the two new IFLA_BRPORT_ attributes prompt bumping of
RTNL_SLAVE_MAX_TYPE to size the slave attribute tables large enough.

The new attributes are used like this:

 # ip link add name br up type bridge vlan_filtering 1 mcast_snooping 1 \
                                      mcast_vlan_snooping 1 mcast_querier 1
 # ip link set dev v1 master br

 # bridge mdb add dev br port v1 grp 230.1.2.4 temp vid 1
 Error: bridge: Port-VLAN is already in 1 groups, and mcast_max_groups=1.

net: add gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size per device

2023-02-02T04:54:27+00:00

This patch introduces gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size
per device and adds netlink attributes for them, so that IPV4
BIG TCP can be guarded by a separate tunable in the next patch.

To not break the old application using "gso/gro_max_size" for
IPv4 GSO packets, this patch updates "gso/gro_ipv4_max_size"
in netif_set_gso/gro_max_size() if the new size isn't greater
than GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE, so that nothing will change even if
userspace doesn't realize the new netlink attributes.

bridge: Add MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) support

2022-11-04T03:46:32+00:00

Hosts that support 802.1X authentication are able to authenticate
themselves by exchanging EAPOL frames with an authenticator (Ethernet
bridge, in this case) and an authentication server. Access to the
network is only granted by the authenticator to successfully
authenticated hosts.

The above is implemented in the bridge using the "locked" bridge port
option. When enabled, link-local frames (e.g., EAPOL) can be locally
received by the bridge, but all other frames are dropped unless the host
is authenticated. That is, unless the user space control plane installed
an FDB entry according to which the source address of the frame is
located behind the locked ingress port. The entry can be dynamic, in
which case learning needs to be enabled so that the entry will be
refreshed by incoming traffic.

There are deployments in which not all the devices connected to the
authenticator (the bridge) support 802.1X. Such devices can include
printers and cameras. One option to support such deployments is to
unlock the bridge ports connecting these devices, but a slightly more
secure option is to use MAB. When MAB is enabled, the MAC address of the
connected device is used as the user name and password for the
authentication.

For MAB to work, the user space control plane needs to be notified about
MAC addresses that are trying to gain access so that they will be
compared against an allow list. This can be implemented via the regular
learning process with the sole difference that learned FDB entries are
installed with a new "locked" flag indicating that the entry cannot be
used to authenticate the device. The flag cannot be set by user space,
but user space can clear the flag by replacing the entry, thereby
authenticating the device.

Locked FDB entries implement the following semantics with regards to
roaming, aging and forwarding:

1. Roaming: Locked FDB entries can roam to unlocked (authorized) ports,
   in which case the "locked" flag is cleared. FDB entries cannot roam
   to locked ports regardless of MAB being enabled or not. Therefore,
   locked FDB entries are only created if an FDB entry with the given {MAC,
   VID} does not already exist. This behavior prevents unauthenticated
   devices from disrupting traffic destined to already authenticated
   devices.

2. Aging: Locked FDB entries age and refresh by incoming traffic like
   regular entries.

3. Forwarding: Locked FDB entries forward traffic like regular entries.
   If user space detects an unauthorized MAC behind a locked port and
   wishes to prevent traffic with this MAC DA from reaching the host, it
   can do so using tc or a different mechanism.

Enable the above behavior using a new bridge port option called "mab".
It can only be enabled on a bridge port that is both locked and has
learning enabled. Locked FDB entries are flushed from the port once MAB
is disabled. A new option is added because there are pure 802.1X
deployments that are not interested in notifications about locked FDB
entries.
