l2tp: dont play with skb->truesize

2013-02-08T06:49:49+00:00

Andrew Savchenko reported a DNS failure and we diagnosed that
some UDP sockets were unable to send more packets because their
sk_wmem_alloc was corrupted after a while (tx_queue column in
following trace)

Playing with skb->truesize is tricky, especially when
skb is attached to a socket, as we can fool memory charging.

Just remove this code, its not worth trying to be ultra
precise in xmit path.

l2tp: correctly handle ancillary data in the ip6 recv path

2013-01-31T18:53:09+00:00

l2tp_ip6 is incorrectly using the IPv4-specific ip_cmsg_recv to handle
ancillary data.  This means that socket options such as IPV6_RECVPKTINFO are
not honoured in userspace.

Convert l2tp_ip6 to use the IPv6-specific handler.

ipv6: rename datagram_send_ctl and datagram_recv_ctl

2013-01-31T18:53:08+00:00

The datagram_*_ctl functions in net/ipv6/datagram.c are IPv6-specific.  Since
datagram_send_ctl is publicly exported it should be appropriately named to
reflect the fact that it's for IPv6 only.

l2tp: prevent l2tp_tunnel_delete racing with userspace close

2013-01-29T20:43:02+00:00

If a tunnel socket is created by userspace, l2tp hooks the socket destructor
in order to clean up resources if userspace closes the socket or crashes.  It
also caches a pointer to the struct sock for use in the data path and in the
netlink interface.

While it is safe to use the cached sock pointer in the data path, where the
skb references keep the socket alive, it is not safe to use it elsewhere as
such access introduces a race with userspace closing the socket.  In
particular, l2tp_tunnel_delete is prone to oopsing if a multithreaded
userspace application closes a socket at the same time as sending a netlink
delete command for the tunnel.

This patch fixes this oops by forcing l2tp_tunnel_delete to explicitly look up
a tunnel socket held by userspace using sockfd_lookup().

l2tp: fix oops in l2tp_eth_create() error path

2012-11-03T01:56:35+00:00

When creating an L2TPv3 Ethernet session, if register_netdev() should fail for
any reason (for example, automatic naming for "l2tpeth%d" interfaces hits the
32k-interface limit), the netdev is freed in the error path.  However, the
l2tp_eth_sess structure's dev pointer is left uncleared, and this results in
l2tp_eth_delete() then attempting to unregister the same netdev later in the
session teardown.  This results in an oops.

To avoid this, clear the session dev pointer in the error path.

l2tp: fix return value check

2012-09-27T17:18:19+00:00

In case of error, the function genlmsg_put() returns NULL pointer
not ERR_PTR(). The IS_ERR() test in the return value check should
be replaced with NULL test.

This is due to l2tp uses symbols from IPV6, so when IPV6
is a module, l2tp is not allowed to be builtin.
