netfilter: Pass socket pointer down through okfn().

2015-04-07T19:25:55+00:00

On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two
socket contexts.  First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that
generated the frame.

And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling
socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP.

We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order
to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting.

The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an
AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device.  We hit code
paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4
socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one.

ipv6: coding style: comparison for inequality with NULL

2015-03-31T17:51:54+00:00

The ipv6 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check for NULL
pointer is done as x != NULL and sometimes as x. x is preferred according to
checkpatch and this patch makes the code consistent by adopting the latter
form.

No changes detected by objdiff.

ipv4, ipv6: kill ip_mc_{join, leave}_group and ipv6_sock_mc_{join, drop}

2015-03-19T02:05:09+00:00

in favor of their inner __ ones, which doesn't grab rtnl.

As these functions need to operate on a locked socket, we can't be
grabbing rtnl by then. It's too late and doing so causes reversed
locking.

So this patch:
- move rtnl handling to callers instead while already fixing some
  reversed locking situations, like on vxlan and ipvs code.
- renames __ ones to not have the __ mark:
  __ip_mc_{join,leave}_group -> ip_mc_{join,leave}_group
  __ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop} -> ipv6_sock_mc_{join,drop}

multicast: Extend ip address command to enable multicast group join/leave on

2015-02-27T21:25:25+00:00

Joining multicast group on ethernet level via "ip maddr" command would
not work if we have an Ethernet switch that does igmp snooping since
the switch would not replicate multicast packets on ports that did not
have IGMP reports for the multicast addresses.

Linux vxlan interfaces created via "ip link add vxlan" have the group option
that enables then to do the required join.

By extending ip address command with option "autojoin" we can get similar
functionality for openvswitch vxlan interfaces as well as other tunneling
mechanisms that need to receive multicast traffic. The kernel code is
structured similar to how the vxlan driver does a group join / leave.

example:
ip address add 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5 autojoin
ip address del 224.1.1.10/24 dev eth5

igmp v6: add __ipv6_sock_mc_join and __ipv6_sock_mc_drop

Based on the igmp v4 changes from Eric Dumazet.

These changes are needed to perform igmp v6 join/leave while
RTNL is held.

Make ipv6_sock_mc_join and ipv6_sock_mc_drop wrappers around
__ipv6_sock_mc_join and  __ipv6_sock_mc_drop to avoid

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

2014-11-06T03:12:30+00:00

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():

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().

Using a single fixed string is smaller code size than using

ipv6: mld: answer mldv2 queries with mldv1 reports in mldv1 fallback

2014-09-22T20:23:15+00:00

RFC2710 (MLDv1), section 3.7. says:

  The length of a received MLD message is computed by taking the
  IPv6 Payload Length value and subtracting the length of any IPv6
  extension headers present between the IPv6 header and the MLD
  message. If that length is greater than 24 octets, that indicates
  that there are other fields present *beyond* the fields described
  above, perhaps belonging to a *future backwards-compatible* version
  of MLD. An implementation of the version of MLD specified in this
  document *MUST NOT* send an MLD message longer than 24 octets and
  MUST ignore anything past the first 24 octets of a received MLD
  message.

RFC3810 (MLDv2), section 8.2.1. states for *listeners* regarding
presence of MLDv1 routers:

  In order to be compatible with MLDv1 routers, MLDv2 hosts MUST
  operate in version 1 compatibility mode. [...] When Host
  Compatibility Mode is MLDv2, a host acts using the MLDv2 protocol
  on that interface. When Host Compatibility Mode is MLDv1, a host
  acts in MLDv1 compatibility mode, using *only* the MLDv1 protocol,
  on that interface. [...]

While section 8.3.1. specifies *router* behaviour regarding presence
of MLDv1 routers:

  MLDv2 routers may be placed on a network where there is at least
  one MLDv1 router. The following requirements apply:

  If an MLDv1 router is present on the link, the Querier MUST use
  the *lowest* version of MLD present on the network. This must be
  administratively assured. Routers that desire to be compatible
  with MLDv1 MUST have a configuration option to act in MLDv1 mode;
  if an MLDv1 router is present on the link, the system administrator
  must explicitly configure all MLDv2 routers to act in MLDv1 mode.
  When in MLDv1 mode, the Querier MUST send periodic General Queries
  truncated at the Multicast Address field (i.e., 24 bytes long),
  and SHOULD also warn about receiving an MLDv2 Query (such warnings
  must be rate-limited). The Querier MUST also fill in the Maximum
  Response Delay in the Maximum Response Code field, i.e., the
  exponential algorithm described in section 5.1.3. is not used. [...]

That means that we should not get queries from different versions of
MLD. When there's a MLDv1 router present, MLDv2 enforces truncation
and MRC == MRD (both fields are overlapping within the 24 octet range).

Section 8.3.2. specifies behaviour in the presence of MLDv1 multicast
address *listeners*:

  MLDv2 routers may be placed on a network where there are hosts
  that have not yet been upgraded to MLDv2. In order to be compatible
  with MLDv1 hosts, MLDv2 routers MUST operate in version 1 compatibility
  mode. MLDv2 routers keep a compatibility mode per multicast address
  record. The compatibility mode of a multicast address is determined
  from the Multicast Address Compatibility Mode variable, which can be
  in one of the two following states: MLDv1 or MLDv2.

  The Multicast Address Compatibility Mode of a multicast address
  record is set to MLDv1 whenever an MLDv1 Multicast Listener Report is
  *received* for that multicast address. At the same time, the Older
  Version Host Present timer for the multicast address is set to Older
  Version Host Present Timeout seconds. The timer is re-set whenever a
  new MLDv1 Report is received for that multicast address. If the Older
  Version Host Present timer expires, the router switches back to
  Multicast Address Compatibility Mode of MLDv2 for that multicast
  address. [...]

That means, what can happen is the following scenario, that hosts can
act in MLDv1 compatibility mode when they previously have received an
MLDv1 query (or, simply operate in MLDv1 mode-only); and at the same
time, an MLDv2 router could start up and transmits MLDv2 startup query
messages while being unaware of the current operational mode.

Given RFC2710, section 3.7 we would need to answer to that with an MLDv1
listener report, so that the router according to RFC3810, section 8.3.2.
would receive that and internally switch to MLDv1 compatibility as well.

Right now, I believe since the initial implementation of MLDv2, Linux
hosts would just silently drop such MLDv2 queries instead of replying
with an MLDv1 listener report, which would prevent a MLDv2 router going
into fallback mode (until it receives other MLDv1 queries).

Since the mapping of MRC to MRD in exactly such cases can make use of
the exponential algorithm from 5.1.3, we cannot [strictly speaking] be
aware in MLDv1 of the encoding in MRC, it seems also not mentioned by
the RFC. Since encodings are the same up to 32767, assume in such a
situation this value as a hard upper limit we would clamp. We have asked
one of the RFC authors on that regard, and he mentioned that there seem
not to be any implementations that make use of that exponential algorithm
on startup messages. In any case, this patch fixes this MLD
interoperability issue.
