ip6tnl/sit: drop packet if ECN present with not-ECT

2012-11-28T16:37:11+00:00

This patch reports the change made by Stephen Hemminger in ipip and gre[6] in
commit eccc1bb8d4b4 (tunnel: drop packet if ECN present with not-ECT).

Goal is to handle RFC6040, Section 4.2:

Default Tunnel Egress Behaviour.
 o If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT, the decapsulator MUST NOT
      propagate any other ECN codepoint onwards.  This is because the
      inner Not-ECT marking is set by transports that rely on dropped
      packets as an indication of congestion and would not understand or
      respond to any other ECN codepoint [RFC4774].  Specifically:

      *  If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is
         CE, the decapsulator MUST drop the packet.

      *  If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is
         Not-ECT, ECT(0), or ECT(1), the decapsulator MUST forward the
         outgoing packet with the ECN field cleared to Not-ECT.

The patch takes benefits from common function added in net/inet_ecn.h.

Like it was done for Xin4 tunnels, it adds logging to allow detecting broken
systems that set ECN bits incorrectly when tunneling (or an intermediate
router might be changing the header). Errors are also tracked via
rx_frame_error.

sit: allow to configure 6rd tunnels via netlink

2012-11-20T18:43:28+00:00

This patch add the support of 6RD tunnels management via netlink.
Note that netdev_state_change() is now called when 6RD parameters are updated.

6RD parameters are updated only if there is at least one 6RD attribute.

net: Allow userns root to control ipv6

2012-11-19T01:32:45+00:00

Allow an unpriviled user who has created a user namespace, and then
created a network namespace to effectively use the new network
namespace, by reducing capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) and
capable(CAP_NET_RAW) calls to be ns_capable(net->user_ns,
CAP_NET_ADMIN), or capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW) calls.

Settings that merely control a single network device are allowed.
Either the network device is a logical network device where
restrictions make no difference or the network device is hardware NIC
that has been explicity moved from the initial network namespace.

In general policy and network stack state changes are allowed while
resource control is left unchanged.

Allow the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl to add ipv6 addresses.
Allow the SIOCDIFADDR ioctl to delete ipv6 addresses.
Allow the SIOCADDRT ioctl to add ipv6 routes.
Allow the SIOCDELRT ioctl to delete ipv6 routes.

Allow creation of ipv6 raw sockets.

Allow setting the IPV6_JOIN_ANYCAST socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_FL_A_RENEW parameter of the IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR
socket option.

Allow setting the IPV6_TRANSPARENT socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_HOPOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_RTHDRDSTOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_DSTOPTS socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_IPSEC_POLICY socket option.
Allow setting the IPV6_XFRM_POLICY socket option.

Allow sending packets with the IPV6_2292HOPOPTS control message.
Allow sending packets with the IPV6_2292DSTOPTS control message.
Allow sending packets with the IPV6_RTHDRDSTOPTS control message.

Allow setting the multicast routing socket options on non multicast
routing sockets.

Allow the SIOCADDTUNNEL, SIOCCHGTUNNEL, and SIOCDELTUNNEL ioctls for
setting up, changing and deleting tunnels over ipv6.

Allow the SIOCADDTUNNEL, SIOCCHGTUNNEL, SIOCDELTUNNEL ioctls for
setting up, changing and deleting ipv6 over ipv4 tunnels.

Allow the SIOCADDPRL, SIOCDELPRL, SIOCCHGPRL ioctls for adding,
deleting, and changing the potential router list for ISATAP tunnels.

sit: fix sparse warnings

2012-11-15T18:46:29+00:00

This change fixes several sparse warnings about endianness problem. The wrong
nla_*() functions were used.
It also fix a sparse warning about a flag test (field i_flags). This field is
used in this file like a local flag only, so it is more an u16 (gre uses it as a
be16). This sparse warning was already there before the patch that add netlink
management, the code has just been moved.

sit: always notify change when params are updated

2012-11-15T03:02:38+00:00

netdev_state_change() was called only when end points or link was updated. Now
that all parameters are advertised via netlink, we must advertise any change.

This patch also prepares the support of sit tunnels management via rtnl. The
code which update tunnels will be put in a new function.

net: convert __IPTUNNEL_XMIT() to an inline function

2012-11-14T23:49:50+00:00

__IPTUNNEL_XMIT() is an ugly macro, convert it to a static
inline function, so make it more readable.

IPTUNNEL_XMIT() is unused, just remove it.
