net: ipv4: Remove unneed BUG() function

2021-06-08T18:36:48+00:00

When 'nla_parse_nested_deprecated' failed, it's no need to
BUG() here, return -EINVAL is ok.

mld: fix suspicious RCU usage in __ipv6_dev_mc_dec()

2021-04-16T22:40:59+00:00

__ipv6_dev_mc_dec() internally uses sleepable functions so that caller
must not acquire atomic locks. But caller, which is addrconf_verify_rtnl()
acquires rcu_read_lock_bh().
So this warning occurs in the __ipv6_dev_mc_dec().

Test commands:
    ip netns add A
    ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1
    ip link set veth1 netns A
    ip link set veth0 up
    ip netns exec A ip link set veth1 up
    ip a a 2001:db8::1/64 dev veth0 valid_lft 2 preferred_lft 1

Splat looks like:
============================

In order to avoid this problem, it uses rcu_read_unlock_bh() for
a short time. RCU is used for avoiding freeing
ifp(struct *inet6_ifaddr) while ifp is being used. But this will
not be released even if rcu_read_unlock_bh() is used.
Because before rcu_read_unlock_bh(), it uses in6_ifa_hold(ifp).
So this is safe.

ipv6: report errors for iftoken via netlink extack

2021-04-08T20:52:36+00:00

Setting iftoken can fail for several different reasons but there
and there was no report to user as to the cause. Add netlink
extended errors to the processing of the request.

This requires adding additional argument through rtnl_af_ops
set_link_af callback.

mld: convert ifmcaddr6 to RCU

2021-03-26T22:14:56+00:00

The ifmcaddr6 has been protected by inet6_dev->lock(rwlock) so that
the critical section is atomic context. In order to switch this context,
changing locking is needed. The ifmcaddr6 actually already protected by
RTNL So if it's converted to use RCU, its control path context can be
switched to sleepable.

net: allow user to set metric on default route learned via Router Advertisement

2021-01-27T02:39:45+00:00

For IPv4, default route is learned via DHCPv4 and user is allowed to change
metric using config etc/network/interfaces. But for IPv6, default route can
be learned via RA, for which, currently a fixed metric value 1024 is used.

Ideally, user should be able to configure metric on default route for IPv6
similar to IPv4. This patch adds sysctl for the same.

Logs:

For IPv4:

Config in etc/network/interfaces:
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
    metric 4261413864

IPv4 Kernel Route Table:
$ ip route list
default via 172.21.47.1 dev eth0 metric 4261413864

FRR Table, if a static route is configured:
[In real scenario, it is useful to prefer BGP learned default route over DHCPv4 default route.]
Codes: K - kernel route, C - connected, S - static, R - RIP,
       O - OSPF, I - IS-IS, B - BGP, P - PIM, E - EIGRP, N - NHRP,
       T - Table, v - VNC, V - VNC-Direct, A - Babel, D - SHARP,
       > - selected route, * - FIB route

S>* 0.0.0.0/0 [20/0] is directly connected, eth0, 00:00:03
K   0.0.0.0/0 [254/1000] via 172.21.47.1, eth0, 6d08h51m

i.e. User can prefer Default Router learned via Routing Protocol in IPv4.
Similar behavior is not possible for IPv6, without this fix.

After fix [for IPv6]:
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ra_defrtr_metric=1996489705

IP monitor: [When IPv6 RA is received]
default via fe80::xx16:xxxx:feb3:ce8e dev eth0 proto ra metric 1996489705  pref high

Kernel IPv6 routing table
$ ip -6 route list
default via fe80::be16:65ff:feb3:ce8e dev eth0 proto ra metric 1996489705 expires 21sec hoplimit 64 pref high

FRR Table, if a static route is configured:
[In real scenario, it is useful to prefer BGP learned default route over IPv6 RA default route.]
Codes: K - kernel route, C - connected, S - static, R - RIPng,
       O - OSPFv3, I - IS-IS, B - BGP, N - NHRP, T - Table,
       v - VNC, V - VNC-Direct, A - Babel, D - SHARP,
       > - selected route, * - FIB route

S>* ::/0 [20/0] is directly connected, eth0, 00:00:06
K   ::/0 [119/1001] via fe80::xx16:xxxx:feb3:ce8e, eth0, 6d07h43m

If the metric is changed later, the effect will be seen only when next IPv6
RA is received, because the default route must be fully controlled by RA msg.
Below metric is changed from 1996489705 to 1996489704.

$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ra_defrtr_metric=1996489704
net.ipv6.conf.eth0.ra_defrtr_metric = 1996489704

IP monitor:
[On next IPv6 RA msg, Kernel deletes prev route and installs new route with updated metric]

Deleted default via fe80::xx16:xxxx:feb3:ce8e dev eth0 proto ra metric 1996489705 expires 3sec hoplimit 64 pref high

ipv6: set multicast flag on the multicast route

2021-01-19T03:52:37+00:00

The multicast route ff00::/8 is created with type RTN_UNICAST:

  $ ip -6 -d route
  unicast ::1 dev lo proto kernel scope global metric 256 pref medium
  unicast fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel scope global metric 256 pref medium
  unicast ff00::/8 dev eth0 proto kernel scope global metric 256 pref medium

Set the type to RTN_MULTICAST which is more appropriate.

ipv6: create multicast route with RTPROT_KERNEL

2021-01-19T03:52:02+00:00

The ff00::/8 multicast route is created without specifying the fc_protocol
field, so the default RTPROT_BOOT value is used:

  $ ip -6 -d route
  unicast ::1 dev lo proto kernel scope global metric 256 pref medium
  unicast fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel scope global metric 256 pref medium
  unicast ff00::/8 dev eth0 proto boot scope global metric 256 pref medium

As the documentation says, this value identifies routes installed during
boot, but the route is created when interface is set up.
Change the value to RTPROT_KERNEL which is a better value.
