ipv4: add option to drop unicast encapsulated in L2 multicast

2016-02-11T09:27:35+00:00

In order to solve a problem with 802.11, the so-called hole-196 attack,
add an option (sysctl) called "drop_unicast_in_l2_multicast" which, if
enabled, causes the stack to drop IPv4 unicast packets encapsulated in
link-layer multi- or broadcast frames. Such frames can (as an attack)
be created by any member of the same wireless network and transmitted
as valid encrypted frames since the symmetric key for broadcast frames
is shared between all stations.

Additionally, enabling this option provides compliance with a SHOULD
clause of RFC 1122.

ipv4: early demux should be aware of fragments

2016-01-29T20:14:20+00:00

We should not assume a valid protocol header is present,
as this is not the case for IPv4 fragments.

Lets avoid extra cache line misses and potential bugs
if we actually find a socket and incorrectly uses its dst.

ipv4: Pass struct net into ip_defrag and ip_check_defrag

2015-10-13T02:44:16+00:00

The function ip_defrag is called on both the input and the output
paths of the networking stack.  In particular conntrack when it is
tracking outbound packets from the local machine calls ip_defrag.

So add a struct net parameter and stop making ip_defrag guess which
network namespace it needs to defragment packets in.

ipv4: Only compute net once in ip_call_ra_chain

2015-10-13T02:44:14+00:00

ip_call_ra_chain is called early in the forwarding chain from
ip_forward and ip_mr_input, which makes skb->dev the correct
expression to get the input network device and dev_net(skb->dev) a
correct expression for the network namespace the packet is being
processed in.

Compute the network namespace and store it in a variable to make the
code clearer.

netfilter: Pass net into okfn

2015-09-18T00:18:37+00:00

This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that
call into netfilter.  Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would
need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process
packets in.

As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions
after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in
many cases a code simplification.

To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to
simplify passing dst_output as an okfn.  For the moment dst_output_okfn
just silently drops the struct net.

netfilter: Pass struct net into the netfilter hooks

2015-09-18T00:18:37+00:00

Pass a network namespace parameter into the netfilter hooks.  At the
call site of the netfilter hooks the path a packet is taking through
the network stack is well known which allows the network namespace to
be easily and reliabily.

This allows the replacement of magic code like
"dev_net(state->in?:state->out)" that appears at the start of most
netfilter hooks with "state->net".

In almost all cases the network namespace passed in is derived
from the first network device passed in, guaranteeing those
paths will not see any changes in practice.

The exceptions are:
xfrm/xfrm_output.c:xfrm_output_resume()         xs_net(skb_dst(skb)->xfrm)
ipvs/ip_vs_xmit.c:ip_vs_nat_send_or_cont()      ip_vs_conn_net(cp)
ipvs/ip_vs_xmit.c:ip_vs_send_or_cont()          ip_vs_conn_net(cp)
ipv4/raw.c:raw_send_hdrinc()                    sock_net(sk)
ipv6/ip6_output.c:ip6_xmit()			sock_net(sk)
ipv6/ndisc.c:ndisc_send_skb()                   dev_net(skb->dev) not dev_net(dst->dev)
ipv6/raw.c:raw6_send_hdrinc()                   sock_net(sk)
br_netfilter_hooks.c:br_nf_pre_routing_finish() dev_net(skb->dev) before skb->dev is set to nf_bridge->physindev

In all cases these exceptions seem to be a better expression for the
network namespace the packet is being processed in then the historic
"dev_net(in?in:out)".  I am documenting them in case something odd
pops up and someone starts trying to track down what happened.

dst: Metadata destinations

2015-07-21T17:39:05+00:00

Introduces a new dst_metadata which enables to carry per packet metadata
between forwarding and processing elements via the skb->dst pointer.

The structure is set up to be a union. Thus, each separate type of
metadata requires its own dst instance. If demand arises to carry
multiple types of metadata concurrently, metadata dst entries can be
made stackable.

The metadata dst entry is refcnt'ed as expected for now but a non
reference counted use is possible if the reference is forced before
queueing the skb.

In order to allow allocating dsts with variable length, the existing
dst_alloc() is split into a dst_alloc() and dst_init() function. The
existing dst_init() function to initialize the subsystem is being
renamed to dst_subsys_init() to make it clear what is what.

The check before ip_route_input() is changed to ignore metadata dsts
and drop the dst inside the routing function thus allowing to interpret
metadata in a later commit.
