l2tp: rely on ppp layer for skb scrubbing

2016-01-04T21:45:24+00:00

Since 79c441ae505c ("ppp: implement x-netns support"), the PPP layer
calls skb_scrub_packet() whenever the skb is received on the PPP
device. Manually resetting packet meta-data in the L2TP layer is thus
redundant.

pppox: use standard module auto-loading feature

2015-12-03T20:12:54+00:00

* Register PF_PPPOX with pppox module rather than with pppoe,
    so that pppoe doesn't get loaded for any PF_PPPOX socket.

  * Register PX_PROTO_* with standard MODULE_ALIAS_NET_PF_PROTO()
    instead of using pppox's own naming scheme.

  * While there, add auto-loading feature for pptp.

ipv6: add complete rcu protection around np->opt

2015-12-03T04:37:16+00:00

This patch addresses multiple problems :

UDP/RAW sendmsg() need to get a stable struct ipv6_txoptions
while socket is not locked : Other threads can change np->opt
concurrently. Dmitry posted a syzkaller
(http://github.com/google/syzkaller) program desmonstrating
use-after-free.

Starting with TCP/DCCP lockless listeners, tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
and dccp_v6_request_recv_sock() also need to use RCU protection
to dereference np->opt once (before calling ipv6_dup_options())

This patch adds full RCU protection to np->opt

l2tp: protect tunnel->del_work by ref_count

2015-09-29T05:39:10+00:00

There is a small chance that tunnel_free() is called before tunnel->del_work scheduled
resulting in a zero pointer dereference.

l2tp: auto load IP modules

2015-09-25T19:27:22+00:00

When creating a IP encapsulated tunnel the necessary l2tp module
should be loaded. It already works for UDP encapsulation, it just
doesn't work for direct IP encap.

l2tp: auto load type modules

2015-09-25T19:27:22+00:00

It should not be necessary to do explicit module loading when
configuring L2TP. Modules should be loaded as needed instead
(as is done already with netlink and other tunnel types).

This patch adds a new module alias type and code to load
the sub module on demand.

net: Modify sk_alloc to not reference count the netns of kernel sockets.

2015-05-11T14:50:18+00:00

Now that sk_alloc knows when a kernel socket is being allocated modify
it to not reference count the network namespace of kernel sockets.

Keep track of if a socket needs reference counting by adding a flag to
struct sock called sk_net_refcnt.

Update all of the callers of sock_create_kern to stop using
sk_change_net and sk_release_kernel as those hacks are no longer
needed, to avoid reference counting a kernel socket.

net: Pass kern from net_proto_family.create to sk_alloc

2015-05-11T14:50:17+00:00

In preparation for changing how struct net is refcounted
on kernel sockets pass the knowledge that we are creating
a kernel socket from sock_create_kern through to sk_alloc.
