net: ipmr: ipmr_get_table() returns NULL

2017-07-12T15:18:46+00:00

The ipmr_get_table() function doesn't return error pointers it returns
NULL on error.

net: ipmr: Add ipmr_rtm_getroute

2017-06-29T19:37:48+00:00

Add to RTNL_FAMILY_IPMR, RTM_GETROUTE the ability
to retrieve one S,G mroute from a specified table.

*,G will return mroute information for just that
particular mroute if it exists.  This is because
it is entirely possible to have more S's then
can fit in one skb to return to the requesting
process.

ipmr: add netlink notifications on igmpmsg cache reports

2017-06-21T15:22:52+00:00

Add Netlink notifications on cache reports in ipmr, in addition to the
existing igmpmsg sent to mroute_sk.
Send RTM_NEWCACHEREPORT notifications to RTNLGRP_IPV4_MROUTE_R.

MSGTYPE, VIF_ID, SRC_ADDR and DST_ADDR Netlink attributes contain the
same data as their equivalent fields in the igmpmsg header.
PKT attribute is the packet sent to mroute_sk, without the added igmpmsg
header.

networking: make skb_pull & friends return void pointers

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

which actually doesn't cover pskb_put since there are only three

A handful of stragglers were converted manually, notably a macro in
drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_bsdcomp.c and, oddly enough, one of the many
instances in net/bluetooth/hci_sock.c. In the former file, I also
had to fix one whitespace problem spatch introduced.

net: ipmr: Fix some mroute forwarding issues in vrf's

2017-06-11T22:15:06+00:00

This patch fixes two issues:

1) When forwarding on *,G mroutes that are in a vrf, the
kernel was dropping information about the actual incoming
interface when calling ip_mr_forward from ip_mr_input.
This caused ip_mr_forward to send the multicast packet
back out the incoming interface.  Fix this by
modifying ip_mr_forward to be handed the correctly
resolved dev.

2) When a unresolved cache entry is created we store
the incoming skb on the unresolved cache entry and
upon mroute resolution from the user space daemon,
we attempt to forward the packet.  Again we were
not resolving to the correct incoming device for
a vrf scenario, before calling ip_mr_forward.
Fix this by resolving to the correct interface
and calling ip_mr_forward with the result.

net: ipmr: add getlink support

2017-06-08T18:38:59+00:00

Currently there's no way to dump the VIF table for an ipmr table other
than the default (via proc). This is a major issue when debugging ipmr
issues and in general it is good to know which interfaces are
configured. This patch adds support for RTM_GETLINK for the ipmr family
so we can dump the VIF table and the ipmr table's current config for
each table. We're protected by rtnl so no need to acquire RCU or
mrt_lock.

net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.

2017-06-07T19:53:24+00:00

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.

Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().

The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.

netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.

netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.

Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().

This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.

If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit().  But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().

This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.

However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.

Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.

Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.

Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().

netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().

netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().

Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().

And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

ipmr: vrf: Find VIFs using the actual device

2017-05-16T16:52:17+00:00

The skb->dev that is passed into ip_mr_input is
the loX device for VRFs. When we lookup a vif
for this dev, none is found as we do not create
vifs for loopbacks. Instead lookup a vif for the
actual device that the packet was received on,
eg the vlan.
