rtnl: RTM_GETNETCONF: fix wrong return value

2016-03-04T15:25:51+00:00

[ Upstream commit a97eb33ff225f34a8124774b3373fd244f0e83ce ]

An error response from a RTM_GETNETCONF request can return the positive
error value EINVAL in the struct nlmsgerr that can mislead userspace.

route: check and remove route cache when we get route

2016-03-04T15:25:51+00:00

[ Upstream commit deed49df7390d5239024199e249190328f1651e7 ]

Since the gc of ipv4 route was removed, the route cached would has
no chance to be removed, and even it has been timeout, it still could
be used, cause no code to check it's expires.

Fix this issue by checking  and removing route cache when we get route.

ip_cmsg_send() when/if this function returns an error.

Callers are responsible for the freeing.

net:Add sysctl_max_skb_frags

2016-03-04T15:25:49+00:00

[ Upstream commit 5f74f82ea34c0da80ea0b49192bb5ea06e063593 ]

Devices may have limits on the number of fragments in an skb they support.
Current codebase uses a constant as maximum for number of fragments one
skb can hold and use.
When enabling scatter/gather and running traffic with many small messages
the codebase uses the maximum number of fragments and may thereby violate
the max for certain devices.
The patch introduces a global variable as max number of fragments.

tcp: beware of alignments in tcp_get_info()

2016-03-04T15:25:47+00:00

[ Upstream commit ff5d749772018602c47509bdc0093ff72acd82ec ]

With some combinations of user provided flags in netlink command,
it is possible to call tcp_get_info() with a buffer that is not 8-bytes
aligned.

It does matter on some arches, so we need to use put_unaligned() to
store the u64 fields.

Current iproute2 package does not trigger this particular issue.

The problem here is the skb we provide to tcp_v4_send_ack() had to
be parked in the backlog of a new TCP fastopen child because this child
was owned by the user at the time an out of window packet arrived.

Before queuing a packet, TCP has to set skb->dev to NULL as the device
could disappear before packet is removed from the queue.

Fix this issue by using the net pointer provided by the socket (being a
timewait or a request socket).

IPv6 is immune to the bug : tcp_v6_send_response() already gets the net
pointer from the socket if provided.

xfrm: dst_entries_init() per-net dst_ops

2016-01-31T19:23:38+00:00

[ Upstream commit a8a572a6b5f2a79280d6e302cb3c1cb1fbaeb3e8 ]

Remove the dst_entries_init/destroy calls for xfrm4 and xfrm6 dst_ops
templates; their dst_entries counters will never be used.  Move the
xfrm dst_ops initialization from the common xfrm/xfrm_policy.c to
xfrm4/xfrm4_policy.c and xfrm6/xfrm6_policy.c, and call dst_entries_init
and dst_entries_destroy for each net namespace.

The ipv4 and ipv6 xfrms each create dst_ops template, and perform
dst_entries_init on the templates.  The template values are copied to each
net namespace's xfrm.xfrm*_dst_ops.  The problem there is the dst_ops
pcpuc_entries field is a percpu counter and cannot be used correctly by
simply copying it to another object.

The result of this is a very subtle bug; changes to the dst entries
counter from one net namespace may sometimes get applied to a different
net namespace dst entries counter.  This is because of how the percpu
counter works; it has a main count field as well as a pointer to the
percpu variables.  Each net namespace maintains its own main count
variable, but all point to one set of percpu variables.  When any net
namespace happens to change one of the percpu variables to outside its
small batch range, its count is moved to the net namespace's main count
variable.  So with multiple net namespaces operating concurrently, the
dst_ops entries counter can stray from the actual value that it should
be; if counts are consistently moved from one net namespace to another
(which my testing showed is likely), then one net namespace winds up
with a negative dst_ops count while another winds up with a continually
increasing count, eventually reaching its gc_thresh limit, which causes
all new traffic on the net namespace to fail with -ENOBUFS.

tcp/dccp: fix timewait races in timer handling

2016-01-31T19:23:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit ed2e923945892a8372ab70d2f61d364b0b6d9054 ]

When creating a timewait socket, we need to arm the timer before
allowing other cpus to find it. The signal allowing cpus to find
the socket is setting tw_refcnt to non zero value.

As we set tw_refcnt in __inet_twsk_hashdance(), we therefore need to
call inet_twsk_schedule() first.

This also means we need to remove tw_refcnt changes from
inet_twsk_schedule() and let the caller handle it.

Note that because we use mod_timer_pinned(), we have the guarantee
the timer wont expire before we set tw_refcnt as we run in BH context.

To make things more readable I introduced inet_twsk_reschedule() helper.

When rearming the timer, we can use mod_timer_pending() to make sure
we do not rearm a canceled timer.

Note: This bug can possibly trigger if packets of a flow can hit
multiple cpus. This does not normally happen, unless flow steering
is broken somehow. This explains this bug was spotted ~5 months after
its introduction.

A similar fix is needed for SYN_RECV sockets in reqsk_queue_hash_req(),
but will be provided in a separate patch for proper tracking.

net: preserve IP control block during GSO segmentation

2016-01-31T19:23:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9207f9d45b0ad071baa128e846d7e7ed85016df3 ]

Skb_gso_segment() uses skb control block during segmentation.
This patch adds 32-bytes room for previous control block which
will be copied into all resulting segments.

This patch fixes kernel crash during fragmenting forwarded packets.
Fragmentation requires valid IP CB in skb for clearing ip options.
Also patch removes custom save/restore in ovs code, now it's redundant.

udp: disallow UFO for sockets with SO_NO_CHECK option

2016-01-31T19:23:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit 40ba330227ad00b8c0cdf2f425736ff9549cc423 ]

Commit acf8dd0a9d0b ("udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM
sockets") disallows UFO for packets sent from raw sockets. We need to do
the same also for SOCK_DGRAM sockets with SO_NO_CHECK options, even if
for a bit different reason: while such socket would override the
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL set by ip_ufo_append_data(), gso_size is still set and
bad offloading flags warning is triggered in __skb_gso_segment().

In the IPv6 case, SO_NO_CHECK option is ignored but we need to disallow
UFO for packets sent by sockets with UDP_NO_CHECK6_TX option.
