ipv4: igmp: Allow removing groups from a removed interface

2015-12-03T17:07:05+00:00

When a multicast group is joined on a socket, a struct ip_mc_socklist
is appended to the sockets mc_list containing information about the
joined group.

If the interface is hot unplugged, this entry becomes stale. Prior to
commit 52ad353a5344f ("igmp: fix the problem when mc leave group") it
was possible to remove the stale entry by performing a
IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP, passing either the old ifindex or ip address on
the interface. However, this fix enforces that the interface must
still exist. Thus with time, the number of stale entries grows, until
sysctl_igmp_max_memberships is reached and then it is not possible to
join and more groups.

The previous patch fixes an issue where a IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP is
performed without specifying the interface, either by ifindex or ip
address. However here we do supply one of these. So loosen the
restriction on device existence to only apply when the interface has
not been specified. This then restores the ability to clean up the
stale entries.

ipv4: fix a potential deadlock in mcast getsockopt() path

2015-11-05T02:29:59+00:00

Sasha reported the following lockdep warning:

  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

        CPU0                    CPU1
        ----                    ----
   lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
                                lock(rtnl_mutex);
                                lock(sk_lock-AF_INET);
   lock(rtnl_mutex);

This is due to that for IP_MSFILTER and MCAST_MSFILTER, we take
rtnl lock before the socket lock in setsockopt() path, but take
the socket lock before rtnl lock in getsockopt() path. All the
rest optnames are setsockopt()-only.

Fix this by aligning the getsockopt() path with the setsockopt()
path, so that all mcast socket path would be locked in the same
order.

Note, IPv6 part is different where rtnl lock is not held.

It is confusing and silly hiding a parameter so modify all of

no socket is known.

net/ipv4: Pass proto as u8 instead of u16 in ip_check_mc_rcu

2015-09-29T23:27:47+00:00

This patch updates ip_check_mc_rcu so that protocol is passed as a u8
instead of a u16.

The motivation is just to avoid any unneeded type transitions since some
systems will require an instruction to zero extend a u8 field to a u16.
Also it makes it a bit more readable as to the fact that protocol is a u8
so there are no byte ordering changes needed to pass it.

IGMP: Inhibit reports for local multicast groups

2015-08-28T20:28:47+00:00

The range of addresses between 224.0.0.0 and 224.0.0.255 inclusive, is
reserved for the use of routing protocols and other low-level topology
discovery or maintenance protocols, such as gateway discovery and
group membership reporting.  Multicast routers should not forward any
multicast datagram with destination addresses in this range,
regardless of its TTL.

Currently, IGMP reports are generated for this reserved range of
addresses even though a router will ignore this information since it
has no purpose.  However, the presence of reserved group addresses in
an IGMP membership report uses up network bandwidth and can also
obscure addresses of interest when inspecting membership reports using
packet inspection or debug messages.

Although the RFCs for the various version of IGMP (e.g.RFC 3376 for
v3) do not specify that the reserved addresses be excluded from
membership reports, it should do no harm in doing so.  In particular
there should be no adverse effect in any IGMP snooping functionality
since 224.0.0.x is specifically excluded as per RFC 4541 (IGMP and MLD
Snooping Switches Considerations) section 2.1.2. Data Forwarding
Rules:

    2) Packets with a destination IP (DIP) address in the 224.0.0.X
       range which are not IGMP must be forwarded on all ports.

IGMP reports for local multicast groups can now be optionally
inhibited by means of a system control variable (by setting the value
to zero) e.g.:
    echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_link_local_mcast_reports

To retain backwards compatibility the previous behaviour is retained
by default on system boot or reverted by setting the value back to
non-zero e.g.:
    echo 1 >  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/igmp_link_local_mcast_reports

net: fix wrong skb_get() usage / crash in IGMP/MLD parsing code

2015-08-14T00:08:39+00:00

The recent refactoring of the IGMP and MLD parsing code into
ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() introduced a potential crash /
BUG() invocation for bridges:

I wrongly assumed that skb_get() could be used as a simple reference
counter for an skb which is not the case. skb_get() bears additional
semantics, a user count. This leads to a BUG() invocation in
pskb_expand_head() / kernel panic if pskb_may_pull() is called on an skb
with a user count greater than one - unfortunately the refactoring did
just that.

Fixing this by removing the skb_get() call and changing the API: The
caller of ipv6_mc_check_mld() / ip_mc_check_igmp() now needs to
additionally check whether the returned skb_trimmed is a clone.

net: Export IGMP/MLD message validation code

2015-05-04T18:49:23+00:00

With this patch, the IGMP and MLD message validation functions are moved
from the bridge code to IPv4/IPv6 multicast files. Some small
refactoring was done to enhance readibility and to iron out some
differences in behaviour between the IGMP and MLD parsing code (e.g. the
skb-cloning of MLD messages is now only done if necessary, just like the
IGMP part always did).

Finally, these IGMP and MLD message validation functions are exported so
that not only the bridge can use it but batman-adv later, too.

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.
