====================
netfilter/ipvs fixes for net

The following patchset contains fixes for netfilter/ipvs. This round of
fixes is larger than usual at this stage, specifically because of the
nf_tables bridge reject fixes that I would like to see in 3.18. The
patches are:

1) Fix a null-pointer dereference that may occur when logging
   errors. This problem was introduced by 4a4739d56b0 ("ipvs: Pull
   out crosses_local_route_boundary logic") in v3.17-rc5.

2) Update hook mask in nft_reject_bridge so we can also filter out
   packets from there. This fixes 36d2af5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow
   to filter from prerouting and postrouting"), which needs this chunk
   to work.

3) Two patches to refactor common code to forge the IPv4 and IPv6
   reject packets from the bridge. These are required by the nf_tables
   reject bridge fix.

4) Fix nft_reject_bridge by avoiding the use of the IP stack to reject
   packets from the bridge. The idea is to forge the reject packets and
   inject them to the original port via br_deliver() which is now
   exported for that purpose.

5) Restrict nft_reject_bridge to bridge prerouting and input hooks.
   the original skbuff may cloned after prerouting when the bridge stack
   needs to flood it to several bridge ports, it is too late to reject
   the traffic.

netfilter: nf_reject_ipv6: split nf_send_reset6() in smaller functions

2014-10-31T11:49:57+00:00

That can be reused by the reject bridge expression to build the reject
packet. The new functions are:

* nf_reject_ip6_tcphdr_get(): to sanitize and to obtain the TCP header.
* nf_reject_ip6hdr_put(): to build the IPv6 header.
* nf_reject_ip6_tcphdr_put(): to build the TCP header.

drivers/net, ipv6: Select IPv6 fragment idents for virtio UFO packets

2014-10-31T00:01:18+00:00

UFO is now disabled on all drivers that work with virtio net headers,
but userland may try to send UFO/IPv6 packets anyway.  Instead of
sending with ID=0, we should select identifiers on their behalf (as we
used to).

net: fix saving TX flow hash in sock for outgoing connections

2014-10-22T20:14:29+00:00

The commit "net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit"
introduced the inet_set_txhash() and ip6_set_txhash() routines to calculate
and record flow hash(sk_txhash) in the socket structure. sk_txhash is used
to set skb->hash which is used to spread flows across multiple TXQs.

But, the above routines are invoked before the source port of the connection
is created. Because of this all outgoing connections that just differ in the
source port get hashed into the same TXQ.

This patch fixes this problem for IPv4/6 by invoking the the above routines
after the source port is available for the socket.

net: gso: use feature flag argument in all protocol gso handlers

2014-10-20T16:38:12+00:00

skb_gso_segment() has a 'features' argument representing offload features
available to the output path.

A few handlers, e.g. GRE, instead re-fetch the features of skb->dev and use
those instead of the provided ones when handing encapsulation/tunnels.

Depending on dev->hw_enc_features of the output device skb_gso_segment() can
then return NULL even when the caller has disabled all GSO feature bits,
as segmentation of inner header thinks device will take care of segmentation.

This e.g. affects the tbf scheduler, which will silently drop GRE-encap GSO skbs
that did not fit the remaining token quota as the segmentation does not work
when device supports corresponding hw offload capabilities.

====================
netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains netfilter fixes for your net tree,
they are:

1) Fix missing MODULE_LICENSE() in the new nf_reject_ipv{4,6} modules.

2) Restrict nat and masq expressions to the nat chain type. Otherwise,
   users may crash their kernel if they attach a nat/masq rule to a non
   nat chain.

3) Fix hook validation in nft_compat when non-base chains are used.
   Basically, initialize hook_mask to zero.

4) Make sure you use match/targets in nft_compat from the right chain
   type. The existing validation relies on the table name which can be
   avoided by

5) Better netlink attribute validation in nft_nat. This expression has
   to reject the configuration when no address and proto configurations
   are specified.

6) Interpret NFTA_NAT_REG_*_MAX if only if NFTA_NAT_REG_*_MIN is set.
   Yet another sanity check to reject incorrect configurations from
   userspace.

7) Conditional NAT attribute dumping depending on the existing
   configuration.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "A quick batch of bug fixes:

  1) Fix build with IPV6 disabled, from Eric Dumazet.

  2) Several more cases of caching SKB data pointers across calls to
     pskb_may_pull(), thus referencing potentially free'd memory.  From
     Li RongQing.

  3) DSA phy code tests operation presence improperly, instead of going:

        if (x->ops->foo)
                r = x->ops->foo(args);
