arp: filter NOARP neighbours for SIOCGARP

2015-07-29T06:41:24+00:00

When arp is off on a device, and ioctl(SIOCGARP) is queried,
a buggy answer is given with MAC address of the device, instead
of the mac address of the destination/gateway.

We filter out NUD_NOARP neighbours for /proc/net/arp,
we must do the same for SIOCGARP ioctl.

Tested:

lpaa23:~# ./arp 10.246.7.190
MAC=00:01:e8:22:cb:1d      // correct answer

lpaa23:~# ip link set dev eth0 arp off
lpaa23:~# cat /proc/net/arp   # check arp table is now 'empty'
IP address       HW type     Flags       HW address    Mask     Device
lpaa23:~# ./arp 10.246.7.190
MAC=00:1a:11:c3:0d:7f   // buggy answer before patch (this is eth0 mac)

After patch :

lpaa23:~# ip link set dev eth0 arp off
lpaa23:~# ./arp 10.246.7.190
ioctl(SIOCGARP) failed: No such device or address

netfilter: Pass socket pointer down through okfn().

2015-04-07T19:25:55+00:00

On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two
socket contexts.  First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that
generated the frame.

And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling
socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP.

We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order
to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting.

The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an
AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device.  We hit code
paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4
socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one.

ipv4: coding style: comparison for inequality with NULL

2015-04-03T16:11:15+00:00

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for non-NULL pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

No changes detected by objdiff.

2015-04-03T16:11:15+00:00

The ipv4 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check
for NULL pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is
preferred according to checkpatch and this patch makes the code
consistent by adopting the latter form.

neigh: Factor out ___neigh_lookup_noref

2015-03-04T05:23:23+00:00

While looking at the mpls code I found myself writing yet another
version of neigh_lookup_noref.  We currently have __ipv4_lookup_noref
and __ipv6_lookup_noref.

So to make my work a little easier and to make it a smidge easier to
verify/maintain the mpls code in the future I stopped and wrote
___neigh_lookup_noref.  Then I rewote __ipv4_lookup_noref and
__ipv6_lookup_noref in terms of this new function.  I tested my new
version by verifying that the same code is generated in
ip_finish_output2 and ip6_finish_output2 where these functions are
inlined.

To get to ___neigh_lookup_noref I added a new neighbour cache table
function key_eq.  So that the static size of the key would be
available.

I also added __neigh_lookup_noref for people who want to to lookup
a neighbour table entry quickly but don't know which neibhgour table
they are going to look up.

neigh: Don't require dst in neigh_hh_init

2015-03-02T21:43:41+00:00

- Add protocol to neigh_tbl so that dst->ops->protocol is not needed
- Acquire the device from neigh->dev

This results in a neigh_hh_init that will cache the samve values
regardless of the packets flowing through it.

arp: Kill arp_find

There are no more callers so kill this function.

arp: Remove special case to give AX25 it's open arp operations.

2015-03-02T21:43:40+00:00

The special case has been pushed out into ax25_neigh_construct so there
is no need to keep this code in arp.c

neigh: remove dynamic neigh table registration support

2014-11-11T20:23:54+00:00

Currently there are only three neigh tables in the whole kernel:
arp table, ndisc table and decnet neigh table. What's more,
we don't support registering multiple tables per family.
Therefore we can just make these tables statically built-in.

arp: Do not perturb drop profiles with ignored ARP packets

We do not wish to disturb dropwatch or perf drop profiles with an ARP
we will ignore.
