ipv6: fib: fix fib dump restart

2015-03-06T00:39:20+00:00

commit 1c2658545816088477e91860c3a645053719cb54 upstream.

When the ipv6 fib changes during a table dump, the walk is
restarted and the number of nodes dumped are skipped. But the existing
code doesn't advance to the next node after a node is skipped. This can
cause the dump to loop or produce lots of duplicates when the fib
is modified during the dump.

This change advances the walk to the next node if the current node is
skipped after a restart.

ipv6: fib: fix fib dump restart

2015-03-06T00:39:20+00:00

commit fa809e2fd6e317226c046202a88520962672eac0 upstream.

Commit 2bec5a369ee79576a3 (ipv6: fib: fix crash when changing large fib
while dumping it) introduced ability to restart the dump at tree root,
but failed to skip correctly a count of already dumped entries. Code
didn't match Patrick intent.

We must skip exactly the number of already dumped entries.

Note that like other /proc/net files or netlink producers, we could
still dump some duplicates entries.

ipv6: mld: fix add_grhead skb_over_panic for devs with large MTUs

2015-02-20T00:49:24+00:00

commit 4c672e4b42bc8046d63a6eb0a2c6a450a501af32 upstream.

It has been reported that generating an MLD listener report on
devices with large MTUs (e.g. 9000) and a high number of IPv6
addresses can trigger a skb_over_panic():

skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff80612a5d len:3776 put:20

mld_newpack() skb allocations are usually requested with dev->mtu
in size, since commit 72e09ad107e7 ("ipv6: avoid high order allocations")
we have changed the limit in order to be less likely to fail.

However, in MLD/IGMP code, we have some rather ugly AVAILABLE(skb)
macros, which determine if we may end up doing an skb_put() for
adding another record. To avoid possible fragmentation, we check
the skb's tailroom as skb->dev->mtu - skb->len, which is a wrong
assumption as the actual max allocation size can be much smaller.

The IGMP case doesn't have this issue as commit 57e1ab6eaddc
("igmp: refine skb allocations") stores the allocation size in
the cb[].

Set a reserved_tailroom to make it fit into the MTU and use
skb_availroom() helper instead. This also allows to get rid of
igmp_skb_size().

ipv6: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE

2015-02-20T00:49:23+00:00

commit a7ae1992248e5cf9dc5bd35695ab846d27efe15f upstream.

ipv6: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE

The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived.  It applies the
alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom.  As
the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom
with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small.

This patch replaces all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE in net/ipv6
with the macro LL_RESERVED_SPACE and direct reference to
needed_tailroom.

This also fixes the problem with needed_headroom changing between
allocating the skb and reserving the head room.

tcp: md5: remove spinlock usage in fast path

2015-01-01T01:27:52+00:00

commit 71cea17ed39fdf1c0634f530ddc6a2c2fc601c2b upstream.

TCP md5 code uses per cpu variables but protects access to them with
a shared spinlock, which is a contention point.

[ tcp_md5sig_pool_lock is locked twice per incoming packet ]

Makes things much simpler, by allocating crypto structures once, first
time a socket needs md5 keys, and not deallocating them as they are
really small.

Next step would be to allow crypto allocations being done in a NUMA
aware way.

drivers/net, ipv6: Select IPv6 fragment idents for virtio UFO packets

commit 5188cd44c55db3e92cd9e77a40b5baa7ed4340f7 upstream.

UFO is now disabled on all drivers that work with virtio net headers,
but userland may try to send UFO/IPv6 packets anyway.  Instead of
sending with ID=0, we should select identifiers on their behalf (as we
used to).

tcp: be more strict before accepting ECN negociation

2014-12-14T16:24:00+00:00

commit bd14b1b2e29bd6812597f896dde06eaf7c6d2f24 upstream.

It appears some networks play bad games with the two bits reserved for
ECN. This can trigger false congestion notifications and very slow
transferts.

Since RFC 3168 (6.1.1) forbids SYN packets to carry CT bits, we can
disable TCP ECN negociation if it happens we receive mangled CT bits in
the SYN packet.

ipv6: reuse ip6_frag_id from ip6_ufo_append_data

2014-11-05T20:27:47+00:00

commit 916e4cf46d0204806c062c8c6c4d1f633852c5b6 upstream.

Currently we generate a new fragmentation id on UFO segmentation. It
is pretty hairy to identify the correct net namespace and dst there.
Especially tunnels use IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE and thus have no skb_dst
available at all.

This causes unreliable or very predictable ipv6 fragmentation id
generation while segmentation.

Luckily we already have pregenerated the ip6_frag_id in
ip6_ufo_append_data and can use it here.

It fix the bug 67951 on bugzilla
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67951

The patch can't be applied directly, as it' used the function introduced
by "commit 94e187c0" ip6_rt_put(), that patch can't be applied directly
either.

This commit don't have a stable tag, but it fix the bug
no reply after loopback down-up.It's very worthy to be
applied to stable 3.4 kernels.

ip: make IP identifiers less predictable

2014-09-13T22:41:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit 04ca6973f7c1a0d8537f2d9906a0cf8e69886d75 ]

In "Counting Packets Sent Between Arbitrary Internet Hosts", Jeffrey and
Jedidiah describe ways exploiting linux IP identifier generation to
infer whether two machines are exchanging packets.

With commit 73f156a6e8c1 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count"), we
changed IP id generation, but this does not really prevent this
side-channel technique.

This patch adds a random amount of perturbation so that IP identifiers
for a given destination [1] are no longer monotonically increasing after
an idle period.

Note that prandom_u32_max(1) returns 0, so if generator is used at most
once per jiffy, this patch inserts no hole in the ID suite and do not
increase collision probability.

This is jiffies based, so in the worst case (HZ=1000), the id can
rollover after ~65 seconds of idle time, which should be fine.

We also change the hash used in __ip_select_ident() to not only hash
on daddr, but also saddr and protocol, so that ICMP probes can not be
used to infer information for other protocols.

For IPv6, adds saddr into the hash as well, but not nexthdr.

If I ping the patched target, we can see ID are now hard to predict.

21:57:11.008086 IP (...)
    A > target: ICMP echo request, seq 1, length 64
21:57:11.010752 IP (... id 2081 ...)
    target > A: ICMP echo reply, seq 1, length 64

21:57:12.013133 IP (...)
    A > target: ICMP echo request, seq 2, length 64
21:57:12.015737 IP (... id 3039 ...)
    target > A: ICMP echo reply, seq 2, length 64

21:57:13.016580 IP (...)
    A > target: ICMP echo request, seq 3, length 64
21:57:13.019251 IP (... id 3437 ...)
    target > A: ICMP echo reply, seq 3, length 64

[1] TCP sessions uses a per flow ID generator not changed by this patch.
