Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never
updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev-&gt;mtu, new_mtu) as hinted
in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small
mtu values.")

We read dev-&gt;mtu without holding RTNL in many places,
with READ_ONCE() annotations.

It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods
to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE()

We want to be able to run rtnl_fill_ifinfo() under RCU protection
instead of RTNL in the future.

All rtnl_link_ops-&gt;get_link_net() methods already using dev_net()
are ready. I added READ_ONCE() annotations on others.

Ensure the inner IP header is part of skb's linear data before reading
its ECN bits. Otherwise we might read garbage.
One symptom is the system erroneously logging errors like
"vxlan: non-ECT from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx with TOS=xxxx".

Similar bugs have been fixed in geneve, ip_tunnel and ip6_tunnel (see
commit 1ca1ba465e55 ("geneve: make sure to pull inner header in
geneve_rx()") for example). So let's reuse the same code structure for
consistency. Maybe we'll can add a common helper in the future.

VXLAN stores per-VNI statistics using vxlan_vnifilter_count().
These statistics were not updated when arp_reduce() failed its
pskb_may_pull() call.

Use vxlan_vnifilter_count() to update the VNI counter when that
happens.

VXLAN devices update their stats locklessly. Therefore these counters
should either be stored in per-cpu data structures or the updates
should be done using atomic increments.

Since the net_device_core_stats infrastructure is already used in
vxlan_rcv(), use it for the other rx_dropped and tx_dropped counter
updates. Update the other counters atomically using DEV_STATS_INC().

The VXLAN driver currently does not check if the inner layer2
source-address is valid.

In case source-address snooping/learning is enabled, a entry in the FDB
for the invalid address is created with the layer3 address of the tunnel
endpoint.

If the frame happens to have a non-unicast address set, all this
non-unicast traffic is subsequently not flooded to the tunnel network
but sent to the learnt host in the FDB. To make matters worse, this FDB
entry does not expire.

Apply the same filtering for packets as it is done for bridges. This not
only drops these invalid packets but avoids them from being learnt into
the FDB.

<title>ip_tunnel: convert __be16 tunnel flags to bitmaps</title>
<updated>2024-04-01T09:49:28+00:00</updated>

<name>Alexander Lobakin</name>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=5832c4a77d6931cebf9ba737129ae8f14b66ee1d'/>
<id>5832c4a77d6931cebf9ba737129ae8f14b66ee1d</id>
<content type='text'>
Historically, tunnel flags like TUNNEL_CSUM or TUNNEL_ERSPAN_OPT
have been defined as __be16. Now all of those 16 bits are occupied
and there's no more free space for new flags.
It can't be simply switched to a bigger container with no
adjustments to the values, since it's an explicit Endian storage,
and on LE systems (__be16)0x0001 equals to
(__be64)0x0001000000000000.
We could probably define new 64-bit flags depending on the
Endianness, i.e. (__be64)0x0001 on BE and (__be64)0x00010000... on
LE, but that would introduce an Endianness dependency and spawn a
ton of Sparse warnings. To mitigate them, all of those places which
were adjusted with this change would be touched anyway, so why not
define stuff properly if there's no choice.

Define IP_TUNNEL_*_BIT counterparts as a bit number instead of the
value already coded and a fistful of &lt;16 &lt;-&gt; bitmap&gt; converters and
helpers. The two flags which have a different bit position are
SIT_ISATAP_BIT and VTI_ISVTI_BIT, as they were defined not as
__cpu_to_be16(), but as (__force __be16), i.e. had different
positions on LE and BE. Now they both have strongly defined places.
Change all __be16 fields which were used to store those flags, to
IP_TUNNEL_DECLARE_FLAGS() -&gt; DECLARE_BITMAP(__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM) -&gt;
unsigned long[1] for now, and replace all TUNNEL_* occurrences to
their bitmap counterparts. Use the converters in the places which talk
to the userspace, hardware (NFP) or other hosts (GRE header). The rest
must explicitly use the new flags only. This must be done at once,
otherwise there will be too many conversions throughout the code in
the intermediate commits.
Finally, disable the old __be16 flags for use in the kernel code
(except for the two 'irregular' flags mentioned above), to prevent
any accidental (mis)use of them. For the userspace, nothing is
changed, only additions were made.

Most noticeable bloat-o-meter difference (.text):

Historically, tunnel flags like TUNNEL_CSUM or TUNNEL_ERSPAN_OPT
have been defined as __be16. Now all of those 16 bits are occupied
and there's no more free space for new flags.
It can't be simply switched to a bigger container with no
adjustments to the values, since it's an explicit Endian storage,
and on LE systems (__be16)0x0001 equals to
(__be64)0x0001000000000000.
We could probably define new 64-bit flags depending on the
Endianness, i.e. (__be64)0x0001 on BE and (__be64)0x00010000... on
LE, but that would introduce an Endianness dependency and spawn a
ton of Sparse warnings. To mitigate them, all of those places which
were adjusted with this change would be touched anyway, so why not
define stuff properly if there's no choice.

Define IP_TUNNEL_*_BIT counterparts as a bit number instead of the
value already coded and a fistful of &lt;16 &lt;-&gt; bitmap&gt; converters and
helpers. The two flags which have a different bit position are
SIT_ISATAP_BIT and VTI_ISVTI_BIT, as they were defined not as
__cpu_to_be16(), but as (__force __be16), i.e. had different
positions on LE and BE. Now they both have strongly defined places.
Change all __be16 fields which were used to store those flags, to
IP_TUNNEL_DECLARE_FLAGS() -&gt; DECLARE_BITMAP(__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM) -&gt;
unsigned long[1] for now, and replace all TUNNEL_* occurrences to
their bitmap counterparts. Use the converters in the places which talk
to the userspace, hardware (NFP) or other hosts (GRE header). The rest
must explicitly use the new flags only. This must be done at once,
otherwise there will be too many conversions throughout the code in
the intermediate commits.
Finally, disable the old __be16 flags for use in the kernel code
(except for the two 'irregular' flags mentioned above), to prevent
any accidental (mis)use of them. For the userspace, nothing is
changed, only additions were made.
