net: rose: restore old recvmsg behavior

2013-12-30T03:33:17+00:00

recvmsg handler in net/rose/af_rose.c performs size-check ->msg_namelen.

After commit f3d3342602f8bcbf37d7c46641cb9bca7618eb1c
(net: rework recvmsg handler msg_name and msg_namelen logic), we now
always take the else branch due to namelen being initialized to 0.

Digging in netdev-vger-cvs git repo shows that msg_namelen was
initialized with a fixed-size since at least 1995, so the else branch
was never taken.

Compile tested only.

tipc: fix deadlock during socket release

2013-12-30T03:24:07+00:00

A deadlock might occur if name table is withdrawn in socket release
routine, and while packets are still being received from bearer.

       CPU0                       CPU1
T0:   recv_msg()               release()
T1:   tipc_recv_msg()          tipc_withdraw()
T2:   [grab node lock]         [grab port lock]
T3:   tipc_link_wakeup_ports() tipc_nametbl_withdraw()
T4:   [grab port lock]*        named_cluster_distribute()
T5:   wakeupdispatch()         tipc_link_send()
T6:                            [grab node lock]*

The opposite order of holding port lock and node lock on above two
different paths may result in a deadlock. If socket lock instead of
port lock is used to protect port instance in tipc_withdraw(), the
reverse order of holding port lock and node lock will be eliminated,
as a result, the deadlock is killed as well.

Merge tag 'batman-adv-fix-for-davem' of git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge

2013-12-29T05:30:59+00:00

Included changes:

- reset netfilter-bridge state when removing the batman-adv
  header from an incoming packet. This prevents netfilter
  bridge from being fooled when the same packet enters a
  bridge twice (or more): the first time within the
  batman-adv header and the second time without.

- adjust the packet layout to prevent any architecture from
  adding padding bytes. All the structs sent over the wire
  now have size multiple of 4bytes (unless pack(2) is used).

- fix access to the inner vlan_eth header when reading the
  VID in the rx path.

====================
Netfilter/IPVS fixes for net

This patchset contains four nf_tables fixes, one IPVS fix due to
missing updates in the interaction with the new sedadj conntrack
extension that was added to support the netfilter synproxy code,
and a couple of one-liners to fix netnamespace netfilter issues.
More specifically, they are:

* Fix ipv6_find_hdr() call without offset being explicitly initialized
  in nft_exthdr, as required by that function, from Daniel Borkmann.

* Fix oops in nfnetlink_log when using netns and unloading the kernel
  module, from Gao feng.

* Fix BUG_ON in nf_ct_timestamp extension after netns is destroyed,
  from Helmut Schaa.

* Fix crash in IPVS due to missing sequence adjustment extension being
  allocated in the conntrack, from Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

* Add bugtrap to spot a warning in case you deference sequence adjustment
  conntrack area when not available, this should help to catch similar
  invalid dereferences in the Netfilter tree, also from Jesper.

* Fix incomplete dumping of sets in nf_tables when retrieving by family,
  from me.

* Fix oops when updating the table state (dormant <-> active) and having
  user (not base ) chains, from me.

* Fix wrong validation in set element data that results in returning
  -EINVAL when using the nf_tables dictionary feature with mappings,
  also from me.

We don't usually have this amount of fixes by this time (as we're already
in -rc5 of the development cycle), although half of them are related to
nf_tables which is a relatively new thing, and I also believe that holidays
have also delayed the flight of bugfixes to mainstream a bit.

netfilter: nf_tables: fix wrong datatype in nft_validate_data_load()

2013-12-28T21:32:28+00:00

This patch fixes dictionary mappings, eg.

 add rule ip filter input meta dnat set tcp dport map { 22 => 1.1.1.1, 23 => 2.2.2.2 }

The kernel was returning -EINVAL in nft_validate_data_load() since
the type of the set element data that is passed was the real userspace
datatype instead of NFT_DATA_VALUE.

batman-adv: fix vlan header access

2013-12-28T13:48:40+00:00

When batadv_get_vid() is invoked in interface_rx() the
batman-adv header has already been removed, therefore
the header_len argument has to be 0.

batman-adv: clean nf state when removing protocol header

2013-12-28T13:47:44+00:00

If an interface enslaved into batman-adv is a bridge (or a
virtual interface built on top of a bridge) the nf_bridge
member of the skbs reaching the soft-interface is filled
with the state about "netfilter bridge" operations.

Then, if one of such skbs is locally delivered, the nf_bridge
member should be cleaned up to avoid that the old state
could mess up with other "netfilter bridge" operations when
entering a second bridge.
This is needed because batman-adv is an encapsulation
protocol.

However at the moment skb->nf_bridge is not released at all
leading to bogus "netfilter bridge" behaviours.

Fix this by cleaning the netfilter state of the skb before
it gets delivered to the upper layer in interface_rx().

batman-adv: fix size of batadv_icmp_header

2013-12-28T11:51:16+00:00

struct batadv_icmp_header currently has a size of 17, which
will be padded to 20 on some architectures. Fix this by
unrolling the header into the parent structures.

Moreover keep the ICMP parsing functions as generic as they
are now by using a stub icmp_header struct during packet
parsing.
