ipv4+ipv6: Make INET*_ESP select CRYPTO_ECHAINIV

2018-08-15T15:42:05+00:00

commit 32b6170ca59ccf07d0e394561e54b2cd9726038c upstream.

The ESP algorithms using CBC mode require echainiv. Hence INET*_ESP have
to select CRYPTO_ECHAINIV in order to work properly. This solves the
issues caused by a misconfiguration as described in [1].
The original approach, patching crypto/Kconfig was turned down by
Herbert Xu [2].

net: replace dst_cache ip6_tunnel implementation with the generic one

2018-02-25T10:03:34+00:00

commit 607f725f6f7d5ec3759fbc16224afb60e2152a5b upstream.

This also fix a potential race into the existing tunnel code, which
could lead to the wrong dst to be permanenty cached:

CPU1:					CPU2:
  
  
  dst = ip6_route_output(...)
					
					dst_cache_reset() // no effect,
							// the cache is empty
  dst_cache_set() // the wrong dst
	// is permanenty stored
	// into the cache

With the new dst implementation the above race is not possible
since the first cache lookup after dst_cache_reset will fail due
to the timestamp check

net: Identifier Locator Addressing module

2015-08-18T04:33:06+00:00

Adding new module name ila. This implements ILA translation. Light
weight tunnel redirection is used to perform the translation in
the data path. This is configured by the "ip -6 route" command
using the "encap ila " option, where  is the
value to set in destination locator of the packet. e.g.

ip -6 route add 3333:0:0:1:5555:0:1:0/128 \
      encap ila 2001:0:0:1 via 2401:db00:20:911a:face:0:25:0

Sets a route where 3333:0:0:1 will be overwritten by
2001:0:0:1 on output.

net: Build IPv6 into kernel by default

2015-07-13T20:10:21+00:00

This patch makes the default to build IPv6 into the kernel. IPv6
now has significant traction and any remaining vestiges of IPv6
not being provided parity with IPv4 should be swept away. IPv6 is now
core to the Internet and kernel.

Points on IPv6 adoption:

- Per Google statistics, IPv6 usage has reached 7% on the Internet
  and continues to exhibit an exponential growth rate
  https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html
- Just a few days ago ARIN officially depleted its IPv4 pool
- IPv6 only data centers are being successfully built
  (e.g. at Facebook)

This patch changes the IPv6 Kconfig for IPV6. Default for CONFIG_IPV6
is set to "y" and the text has been updated to reflect the maturity of
IPv6.

Impact:

Under some circumstances building modules in to kernel might have a
performance advantage. In my testing, I did notice a very slight
improvement.

This will obviously increase the size of the kernel image. In my
configuration I see:

IPv6 as module:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
9703666 1899288  933888 12536842         bf4c0a vmlinux

IPv6 built into kernel

  text     data     bss     dec     hex filename
9436490 1879600  913408 12229498         ba9b7a vmlinux

Which increases text size by ~270K (2.8% increase in size for me). If
image size is an issue, presumably for a device which does not do IP
networking (IMO we should be discouraging IPv4-only devices), IPV6 can
be disabled or still built as a module.

ip6_vti: Fix build when NET_IP_TUNNEL is not set.

2014-02-20T13:29:49+00:00

Since commit 469bdcefdc47a ip6_vti uses ip_tunnel_get_stats64(),
so we need to select NET_IP_TUNNEL to have this function available.

ipv6: Remove privacy config option.

2013-10-29T00:07:50+00:00

The code for privacy extentions is very mature, and making it
configurable only gives marginal memory/code savings in exchange
for obfuscation and hard to read code via CPP ifdef'ery.
